答案與解析：
文章通過兩只老鼠的故事告訴我們：真正的愛并非一定要建立在利益、情義或血緣的關(guān)系之上，很多時候出于天性。
1.B 由下文的描述可以看出，他們在使用煙熏的方法迫使老鼠從洞里出來。所以選to force“強迫”。而不是誘騙(trap)，邀請(invite)，釋放(free)它們。
2.A 由語境可知這些人熏跑老鼠的目的是翻新谷倉，所以在翻新前進行打掃(clean up)，符合語境。其他幾個選項均無此意。
3.D 其他的老鼠已經(jīng)逃離，結(jié)合下文對這兩只老鼠的描述可以看出，這里要表示“卻見有兩只老鼠在洞口處推擠”。所以只有squeeze能形象地描述出當時的情景。
4.C 下一句告訴我們“在洞口一只老鼠追逐著另外一只”，由此可以推斷它們沒有立即(immediately)逃走。approximately“近似，大約”;certainly“當然，一定，無疑”;eventually“最終，終于”，均不符合語境。
5.A 眾人對這兩只老鼠奇怪的表現(xiàn)(沒有立即逃跑)都很納悶，所以這四個詞中只有puzzled(困惑的)符合語境。moved有很大的干擾性，但人們現(xiàn)在還不知道真相，所以應(yīng)該排除。
6.D 這里強調(diào)一開始不知道，經(jīng)過一段時間或一些事情后才逐步“意識到”，所以要選D，而recognize則強調(diào)從記憶的搜索中辨認出人、物、聲音、方位等。
7.B 由下文的“could not see anything”可以看出，一只老鼠的眼睛是“瞎的”，所以選擇blind。
8.B 可以看出，另一只正設(shè)法使對方咬住自己的尾巴，然后一起(together)逃走。而不是separately“單獨地，分離地”;deliberately“故意地”;accidentally“偶然地”。
9.C 此處意為“目睹了這一切，眾人都默然不語”。所以選C，意為“目擊，目睹”。而experience“經(jīng)歷”;promote“促進”;undergo“經(jīng)歷，遭受”，均不符合句意。
10.B be lost in thought“陷入沉思”。lose face“丟臉”，lose heart“灰心喪氣”，均不符合語境。
11.D 由下文的“expressed their agreement”可以看出，眾人思考了一會兒后，覺得此人“言之有理”，所以選擇make sense，意思是“講得通，有意義”。
12.D 既然自己的觀點得到了眾人的認可，那么他當然感到自我滿足，所以應(yīng)該選擇selfsatisfaction(自滿，沾沾自喜)。selfesteem“自尊，自信，自尊心”;selfconfidence“自信”;selfconsciousness“害羞，局促不安”。
13.B 由下文他的推斷(mother and son)可以看出，這個中國人強調(diào)孝義，所以應(yīng)該選擇parents。
14.A 眾人又思考了一會，覺得這個更合理。這里對應(yīng)的是第一個人提出觀點后眾人的反應(yīng)“thought for a while...”，所以這里選擇Once again(再一次)。
15.B 由下文對這個Samaritan(撒瑪利亞人)的描述以及他的觀點可以看出，他是很單純的。如果不注意上下文的語境考生很容易誤選simpleminded(愚蠢的，頭腦簡單的)。
16.A certain在這里表示“某種”。由前面眾人對這兩只老鼠的關(guān)系做出的種種猜測，再結(jié)合下文的描述可以看出，這里要表達的意思是“為什么那兩只老鼠一定要有某種關(guān)系呢?”
17.C 撒瑪利亞人的一句話使大家感觸頗深，因此這里的意思是：空氣在剎那間凝固了，眾人呆呆地望著這個撒瑪利亞人，一語不發(fā)。故答案選C。
18.A 由本段第一句話以及空前的remained可以看出，應(yīng)該選擇speechless，意思是“無語的”。句意見上題解析。harmless“無害的，不致傷的”;hopeless“沒有希望，不可救藥的”;stainless“無污點的”，均不符合文意。
19.D lower“低下”，這里要表達的意思是：先前說話的人都面露慚色地低下頭不敢作聲。后面的“in shame”暗示了答案。
20.C 由語境可知，這里要表達的意思是：事實上，真正的愛并非一定要建立在利益、友情、孝義或血緣的關(guān)系上。下文“it is based on”有暗示。
