Question

The Sweetest Sight

   I was in the most beautiful city in the world,yet I only wanted home.

    It was an amazing week for my husband and me — the trip of a lifetime. Months ago,when my husband told me that he would have a meeting in London,I expressed my 31 to go to Europe together with him. Then we asked his mother to 32 our two children and started off.

    During the week's time,33 visited London and Paris — as much as we could,Big Ben,the Louvre and so on. All these were beautiful places we expected to see before. We really enjoyed ourselves.

  On our last night in Paris,34 we enjoyed the night view (夜景) of the Eiffel Tower,my husband called home. His mother 35 the phone. In a second,my husband's face fell and he looked so worried. I could feel something 36 happened. ..What's wrong?n I asked.

    He didn't answer and continued to listen. A few minutes later,he said 37 to me that Tony,our seven-year-old son,had fallen off his bike and 38 his leg. He must be sent to hospital at once.

    At that moment,Paris suddenly lost its charm (魅力) .I don't want to be here!I shouldn’t be here!I should be home 39 my kids! ” We hurried back to our hotel and then to the airport ... Finally,we got home. We rushed into our children's bedroom. Seeing our two children,I suddenly realized the truth ：there is no 40 sight (風(fēng)景) in the world than your children's faces that greet you at home.

[完形短文大意]我和丈夫去歐洲旅游，兩個孩子交給了婆 婆照顧。有一天，丈夫打電話回家，得知兒子Tony摔斷了腿。我 們頓時覺得周圍的風(fēng)景全都失去了魅力。后來，我們匆匆趕回了 家。見到孩子們之后，我才意識到，世界上沒有什么風(fēng)景比孩子們 歡迎你回家的面孔更令人愉快。

31. B結(jié)合上下文可知，我表達(dá)了我想要和他一起去歐洲的”愿

望”，故所缺的詞是wish。

32. A look after 照顧;talk with sb.和某人交談；find out 發(fā)現(xiàn)，查

明;wake up叫醒。結(jié)合上下文可知，我們要他媽媽”照顧” 我們的兩個孩子，故答案為A.

33. C結(jié)合上下文可知，”我們"游覽了倫敦和巴黎，故所缺的詞

是we。

34. A本題考査連詞的用法。結(jié)合文意可知，我們欣賞了埃菲爾

鐵塔的夜景之后，我丈夫給家里打了個電話，故所缺的連 詞是after。

35. D結(jié)合上下文的描述可知，他的媽媽接了電話，由此可知，和

the phone搭配的動詞是answered。

36. D結(jié)合上下文的描述可知，我能感覺到發(fā)生了”糟糕的”事

情，故bad符合題意。

37. C我丈夫”難過地"對我說Tony從自行車上摔了下來，故

sadly符合題意。

38. B 由設(shè)空前的had fallen off his bike可推斷，Tony從自行車上

摔了下來，摔斷了腿，故broken符合題意。

39. B該句句意為"我應(yīng)該在家和我的孩子們待在一起"，故所缺

的介詞是with。

40. C結(jié)合上文可推斷此處表示世界上沒有什么風(fēng)景比孩子們

歡迎你回家的面孔更令人愉快，故sweetei.符合題意。
