67. B。 此处需要填一个谓语,从下一句可以看出,本句应该是过去时态,所以B项“被……失明”,符合句意。
68. C。此处需填一个表示过去的副词,C项ago指从现在算起若干时间以前,和动词一般过去时一同使用。符合原文表达要求,为正确答案。
69. A。 耳聋和年老有关系。B项because后只能跟从句,做原因状语,不符合原文结构要求;because of后则跟名词或名词性短语,符合结构要求。C项at和D项in均不能和old age连用。
70. A。 此处需填一个关联词引导后面的从句,表示突然出现的情况,四个选项中只有when符合此种用法,故选A。
71. D。 A项fell "落下,降落",指物体从上到下的垂直运动,用于此处,搭配不当;blew "(风)吹、刮",用于此处,也属搭配不当;C项formed "形成",指事物经历一个发展过程之后,最终形成,这与原文所表达的意义不相符。Approached“接近”,更合适,所以D项为正确答案。
72. C。 遇到雨,当然要在树下躲雨,故用"under a tree"。
73. B。 C项fallen "摔倒",A项thrown "扔",强调动作施者所做的"扔"的动作;D项beaten "打,敲",强调"打"的具体动作,一般用于具体意义;B项knocked "敲、击、打",既可用于具体的,又可用于抽象的"打击,击倒",用于此处,符合原文表达需要,故为正确答案。
74. B。 A项just "刚好",表达过于精确,不符合上下文;C项for后跟一段时间,表达动作的持续过程,如果用于此处,则不能用later,;D项within "在……内",表达过于精确。B项some "大约",意义和about相近,符合原文表达,因此B项为正确答案。
75. D。主句的伴随状语,表示一种伴随的动作或状态,一般用分词或分词短语。A项to lie是动词不定式,不能做伴随状语;C项lay是动词lie的一般过去式,不能做伴随状语;B项having lain是现在分词的完成体,不能做伴随状语。D项lying是动词lie的现在分词形式,符合原文要求。故为正确答案。
76. A。 空缺处前后为两个并列分句描述两个动作。因此when,Dwhile被排除。两个动作之间并无转折关系,所以but也被排除。And可以用于连接两个并列句,故为正确答案。
77. C。 由于他以前双目失明,而现在突见光明,所以此处应填一个转折连词。thus "这样";Btherefore "因此";above all "首先",均不是转折连词。but "但是,然而",转折连词,为正确答案。
78. A 。out of "在……外部"。钟表不可能挂在屋子外,故首先排除。into "到……里",着重表示动作的方向,用于此处不恰当。through "穿过",着重指物体从某一空间中间穿过。across "在对面"。符合原文表达要求,为正确答案。
79. B 。whenever "无论何时",用于此处,与原表达意义不符while,when,as都有"当……的时候"的意思。as着重表示从句动作与主句动作同时发生,持续时间不长。据此分析,as用于此处不当。when可以表示主句动作发生在从句之后,符合原文表达需要。因此B项为正确答案。
80. D。 Robert是后来失明的,此处应为"恢复,再得到"。gained "得到"; gotten "获得";reminded "使回忆起……",都不符合句意。regained "重新得到",符合句意,为正确答案。
81. C 。at "在(某一时间、地点)"; in "在(地点、时间)里面"; on "在……上面,在(某一天)",均无此意。Cfrom "从……中得到",符合句意。
82. B。 这里指的是解释原因,因此只有reason "原因"符合句意。result "结果"; consequence "后果"; content "内容",均无此意。
83. A。解释是由医生提出来的,故此空缺处用过去分词做定语。contributed "贡献,捐献";sought"寻找",强调找的过程,不能表示结果。联系下文用于此处不当。thought "思考,想",用于此处,意思表达欠妥。offered "提供,提出",用于此处意思准确,结构正确,是正确答案。
84. D。 because of "因为、由于"; owing to "由于",强调"原因和结果的关系",把"猛烈的打击"说成"失明的原因",过于牵强。based on "以……为基础",与原文表达不符。as a result of "由于……的结果",强调"某事(行动等)引起的结果。由于事故中的重击而失明,D项符合句意。
85. B。restore和have restored主动结构,不能用于此处。have been restored被动语态完成体表示动作已完成。既已完成,就不存在"可能(perhaps)",用于此处不当。be restored为被动结构,符合句意。
86. C。此处与84空缺处的 a hard blow 相对。 another表示不定数目中的另一个,为正确答案。用于此处,意思准确,为正确答案。one "一次",表示泛指;other "别的,其他的",其后常跟复数形式;the other表示二者中的另一个,用于此处,意思表达有误。
