【解析】試題分析：本文主要講述了一個幽默故事，乘飛機時喜愛窗子旁邊，但是臨窗的座位上有一個警告，上面寫著：此座留著是為了保持飛機平衡， 只好作罷。又有幾個乘客看到空座走了過去，但看到紙條后都離開了。這時，上來一個年輕漂亮的女士，旁邊的年輕人就把紙條拿掉了。閱讀時注意體會文章的幽默感。

【1】句意：魯濱孫先生不得不出差去某地，由于時間倉促，他決定乘飛機去。A. air空氣，意指plane；B. water 水；C. train火車；D. bus公共汽車。因為下文敘述的是飛機上發(fā)生的事情。by air=by plane。

【2】句意：喜歡坐在窗子“旁邊”。 A. on在……上； B. nearly在……附近；C. beside在……旁邊；D. far from遠離。由句意可知C正確。

【3】句意：他發(fā)現(xiàn)除了一個座位以外，都坐滿了人。A. wanted 想；B. found 發(fā)現(xiàn)；C. thought認為；D. hoped希望。表示結(jié)果，與上句的look for（表動作）相呼應(yīng)。故選B。

【4】從句子結(jié)構(gòu)看，此空該填非謂語動詞形式。seat是及物動詞，意思是“使某人就坐”，它與a young man是動賓關(guān)系，所以用seated，表示狀態(tài)；而sit是不及物動詞，它與a young man是主謂關(guān)系，要用sitting，表示動作。故選A。

【5】句意：但當他到達那里時，他看到上面有一張布告。不能選A，因為arrive為不及物動詞；由下文可知，他根本沒坐下來，所以也不能選B；若選D，則與上句的he went towards it相矛盾。故選C。

【6】句意：用大寫字體寫的。in large letters是固定說法，意為“用大寫字母”。故選D。

【7】句意：寫到：“這個座位是用來保持平衡的。謝謝你。”這里該用現(xiàn)在分詞表示伴隨動作。say強調(diào)“說”的內(nèi)容，而speak則指“說”的動作，故不選D。選B。

【8】句意：但他認為飛機一定是在房間里裝了特別重的東西，這使乘客必須適當?shù)仄胶狻?/span>which引導定語從句，指代先行詞something particularly heavy。故選D。

【9】句意：于是他繼續(xù)往前走，發(fā)現(xiàn)另一個空座位。another表泛指“另一個”。故選A。

【10】句意：不在窗邊坐。此處不定式to sit用作定語，應(yīng)與被修飾的名詞seat構(gòu)成動賓關(guān)系，而sit卻是不及物動詞，必須加上介詞on。故選C。

【11】句意：兩個或三個其他的人試圖坐在年輕人旁邊的靠窗座位上。try只表示設(shè)法去做某事，而不表示是否做成；manage卻表示設(shè)法做成了某事。由本句末的but they also read the notice and went on得知，不選C。故選B。

【12】句意：然而，當飛機幾乎滿了的時候，一個非常漂亮的女孩走了進來。A. empty空的； B. full滿的； C. up向上； D. down向下。隨著情節(jié)的發(fā)展，飛機上的人越來越多，快要“滿了”，所以用full。故選B。

【13】句意：當飛機快滿時，一個非常漂亮的女孩走進了飛機。A. reached 到達；B. stepped舉步，行走，跨步；C. entered參加;進去;進入；D. left離開。enter作“進入”講時，一般不與into連用，故不選C。故選B。

【14】句意：那個年輕人看著乘客們走進來，很快地把通知從他旁邊的座位上拿了下來。A. quickly快的；B. fast 快的；C. slowly 慢的；D. soon不久。quickly表示“立刻行動，毫不遲延”用于此處符合the man 的心境，也大大地增強了文章的幽默感。故選A。

【15】句意：那個年輕人看著乘客們走進來，很快地把通知從他旁邊的座位上拿了下來。take ---off---是固定搭配，意為“把……從……取下”。故選C。
