问题 The following paragraphs are given in a wrong order. For Questions 41-45, you are required to reorganize these paragraphs into a coherent article by choosing from the list A-G. Some of the paragraphs have been placed for you. (10 points)

A. Since white was the color of the kind of paradise! So much longed to live in someday, grey left behind nothing more than a bitter taste of emptiness and depression. I can remember how noticed once, that any other color must be a symbol for something, a feeling or whatever. Only grey seemed to stand for absolutely nothing. This was the world I lived in, and so did he.
B. I used to work in a mechanical way, following the same rhythm over and over again, and so did he. But every time I was about to give up, he would lift his head and give me a little smile, as if he could guess my thoughts. I think it was actually his eyes that impressed me most. They were so dark and straight, and though they seems to be hiding anything, I couldn’t get rid of the impression that somehow he must be hiding something.
C. Those days were more than hard for all of us. There seemed to be no way to escape from the greyness of our everyday life, which was the only color that surrounded us. The huge concrete blocks we lived in was grey, the grey of the factory dust, even the color of our clothes, that once might have been white was grey. It must have been a bright and shining white.., and I can’t exactly recall how much time I spent trying to imagine the kind of white it might have been.
D. Well, to make a long story short, he died only a year after he started working with us. It was a car accident and he didn’t have to suffer very long. I went to his funeral and the only person I met there was an old lady, maybe his mother. She told me that he had lost his family just the year before and after that he didn’t speak any more. He hadn’t said a single word. First I didn’t believe her. I just thought that he was a fairly quiet person; besides there was nothing much to say anyway. But suddenly I realized that I couldn’t recall ever having heard his voice at all. Only then did I realize it!
E. Having our job in the factory was still luxury though, considering the fact that most of us had families to feed. And not long after he started to work there, I would always find him working at the machine next to mine. We’d work for hours next to each other, staying quiet, with our thoughts drifting away to a different place but still aware of our hands doing the same movements over and over again. We were doing that until the bell would ring to end the work for the day.
F. He gave me so much and I knew so little about him. He had been my friend and now I had lost him without having had the chance to give anything back. He had been so strong that he was able to give whatever had happened. I felt weak and guilty in those days. But after that I started to care for the people around me. I think I started to live.
G. He wasn’t a guy of big words, and he seemed to live entirely in his own world. I remember that during the days he worked with us, none of us exactly knew who he was, where he came from or what he was looking for, and afterwards he disappeared. Nobody knew where he had gone, what he was doing or if he had friends or a family to stay with. I guess, we didn’t even know his name—and even if we did, I’ve forgotten it anyway.

Order: G is the first paragraph and F is the last one.

选项

答案E

解析 因为该朋友是作者的同事,因此可以判断两人所接触的场所应该是他们的工作单位。从文章结构上来说,通常作者在对自己的生活、工作环境进行描述之后,就开始引入在特定场所发生的事件,显然这里事件应该发生在他们的工作单位—the factory。选项E首句就提到了工厂,而句中的though表明了让步关系,这与前面的"灰色调"构成轻微对比关系,意思是"虽然生活艰难,但是能够在工厂做工已经非常不错了"。因此可以看出选项E与A衔接自然。
