We often read in novels how a seemingly respectable person or
family has some terrible secret which has been concealed from
strangers for years. English language possesses a vivid saying to【M1】______
describe this sort of situatioa The terrible secret is called "a skeleton
in the cupboard". In varying degrees, we all have secrets which we【M2】______
do not want even our closest friends to learn, but few of us have
skeletons in the cupboard. The only person I know has a skeleton in【M3】______
the cupboard is George Carlton, and he takes pride of this fact.【M4】______
George studied medicine in his youth. Instead of becoming a doctor,
therefore, he became a successful writer of detective stories. I once【M5】______
spent an uncomfortable weekend which I shall never forget at my【M6】______
house. George showed me to the guestroom which, he said, was
rarely used. He told me to unpack my things and then come down to
dinner. After I had stacked my shirts and underclothes in two empty
drawers, I decided to hang on my suit in the cupboard. I opened the【M7】______
cupboard door and then stood in front of it petrifying. A skeleton was【M8】______
dangling before my eyes. The sudden movement of the door made it
sway slightly and it gave me the impression that it was about to leap
out to me. Dropping my suit, I dashed downstairs to tell George.【M9】______
This was worse than "terrible secret"; this was a real skeleton!【M10】______
【M8】
选项
答案
petrifying→petrified
解析
语法错误。petrified表示“受到惊吓”,petrifying表示“事物本身令人害怕”,本句表示作者被衣橱里的东西吓呆了。
