My father believed that there were mysterious forces (神秘的力量) at work in the world. One day, he was lecturing me on those mysterious forces (36) suddenly the door opened, and a women entered, (37) two geese. She smiled (38) and looked frightened.
Joseph, I have a very (39) problem. These dead geese, they keep shrieking (尖声叫) in such a sad voice... " (40) hearing this, my father turned pale. " (41) dead geese don’t shriek," my mother cut in. “You’ll hear for yourself," replied the woman, It is impossible to (42) what I heard. My hands grew (43) and I wanted to run from the room.
Father was no less (44) than I was. He jumped away from the table. “Joseph, what shall I do?" the woman cried." (45) ? I’m a poor woman. Two geese! They (46) me a fortune!"
Father did not know what to answer. (47) face was growing sharper and more (48) . "I want to hear it again," she said. And so for the second and the third time, the shrieks were (49) . Nobody said anything. The woman asked, "Well, I didn’t (50) it, did I?"
Suddenly my mother laughed. "Did you (51) the windpipes (气管)?" my mother asked. “The windpipes? No ..." “Let me (52) ," said Mother. She took hold of one of the geese, and pulled out the windpipe. She did the same with the other one. I was surprised by my mother’s (53) . "Now, try it again. " I was (54) to hear the geese shriek, but they were dead silent. “There is always (55) why dead geese shriek," said my mother. "Now go home and cook them for the meal. They won’t make a sound in your pot. "
选项
A、Throw them out
B、Set them free
C、Leave them behind
D、Sell them out
答案
A
解析
考查表达和上下文逻辑。由选项和题目所在句上下文不难看出,这里应是一个反问句,而由后面几句(I’m a poor woman. Two geese! They (46) me a fortune!)以及常识可以推知,那女人是因为穷而反问,故选项中表示“扔掉”的[A]项最符合上下文逻辑。其余三项都不对:set them free指“把它们放掉”,与鹅已经死了这一事实矛盾;leave them behind指“将它们留下,超过它们”;sell them out指“卖掉它们”。
