A Special Journey
I am often asked to describe the experience of______【51】a child with a disability—to try to help people who have not shared that unique experience to understand it, to imagine how it would feel. It’s like this______【52】you’re going to have a baby, it’s like planning a fabulous vacation trip to Italy.
You buy a bunch of guide books and make your wonderful______【53】. The Coliseum, The Michelangelo, David, The gondolas in Venice. You may learn some handy phrases in Italian. It’s all very exciting.
After months of eager anticipation, the day finally ______【54】. You pack your bags and ______【55】you go. Several hours later, the plane lands. The ______【56】comes in and says, "Welcome to Holland. "
"Holland?!?" you say. "What do you mean by Holland?? I signed up for Italy! I’m supposed to be in Italy. All my life I’ve dreamed______【57】going to Italy. "
But there’s been a change in the flight plan. They’ve landed in Holland and there you must stay.
The important thing is that they haven’t taken you to a horrible, disgusting, filthy place, full of pestilence, ______【58】and disease. It’s just a______【59】place.
______【60】you must go out and buy new guide books. And you must learn a whole new language. And you will meet a whole new group of people you would never have met.
It’s just a different place. It’s slower-paced than Italy, less flashy than Italy. But after you’ve been there for a while and you catch your breath, you look around. . . and you begin to______【61】that Holland has windmills. . . and Holland has tulips. Holland even has Rembrandts.
But everyone you know is busy coming and going______【62】Italy. . . and they’re all bragging about______【63】a wonderful time they had there. And for the rest of your life, you will say "Yes, that’s where I was______【64】to go. That’s what I had planned. "
But if you spend your life______【65】the fact that you didn’t get to Italy, you may never be free to enjoy the very special, the very lovely things about Holland.
选项
A、, new
B、wrong
C、familiar
D、different
答案
D
解析
本题考查对上下文的理解。D different不同的。本句意思是:“这只是一个不同的地方。”从“just”一词以及后文的内容判断作者对错来的国家荷兰以一种平和的心态接受了,所以选用不带有太多感情色彩,符合上下文内容的选项D。
