【解析】

1.1】答案　A　[句意：當(dāng)母親在2007年10月去世時(shí)，我是一個(gè)廚師。從第41個(gè)空后出現(xiàn)的her death及其作者丟失母親留給她的項(xiàng)鏈時(shí)心急如焚的感受以及下文的描述可知，當(dāng)時(shí)母親已去世。]

2.2】答案　B　[句意：那年的12月，當(dāng)我在為一個(gè)婚禮忙碌時(shí)，母親留給我的珍珠項(xiàng)鏈沒(méi)了，我憂心如焚。從該空后的I was distraught以及下文對(duì)于項(xiàng)鏈去向的猜測(cè)可反推此處指作者的媽媽留給她的項(xiàng)鏈沒(méi)了。]

3.3】答案　D　[句意：幾天后，我被“告知”那個(gè)和我們一起工作的家伙……show表現(xiàn)，展示；comfort安慰；persuade說(shuō)服；tell告訴。由句意可知D項(xiàng)正確。]

4.4】答案　C　[句意：他可能拿著撿到的項(xiàng)鏈賣(mài)錢(qián)了。這句話中make a fortune的意思是“掙大錢(qián)”。根據(jù)邏輯推理，此人應(yīng)該是將撿到的項(xiàng)鏈賣(mài)掉，以此來(lái)?yè)Q取錢(qián)財(cái)。通過(guò)邏輯推理可知C項(xiàng)正確。]

5.5】答案　A　[句意：幸運(yùn)的是，他把它還回來(lái)了。從上文看，作者沒(méi)想到這個(gè)人還能將她的項(xiàng)鏈還給她。再次獲得母親的遺物，作者應(yīng)該感到很幸運(yùn)。luckily幸運(yùn)地；naturally自然地；surely當(dāng)然，肯定；hopefully有希望地。]

6.6】答案　A　[句意：在聽(tīng)說(shuō)了我在母親去世前6個(gè)月是如何照顧她的后……根據(jù)for six months before her death并結(jié)合下文他對(duì)作者提出的外出放松一下的建議來(lái)看，作者應(yīng)該是照顧了母親很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間。nurse照顧，護(hù)理；cure治愈；miss想念，錯(cuò)過(guò)；guard守衛(wèi)，保衛(wèi)。根據(jù)上下文可知A項(xiàng)正確。]

7.7】答案　B　[句意：圣誕節(jié)會(huì)過(guò)得很艱難……結(jié)合上文來(lái)看，母親的去世給作者帶來(lái)了很大的傷痛。按邏輯來(lái)推，沒(méi)有親人的陪伴，圣誕節(jié)會(huì)讓作者更難過(guò)。long漫長(zhǎng)的；hard艱難的；merry歡快的； free自由的。]

8.8】答案　D　[句意：我來(lái)到了Morzaine，阿爾卑斯山區(qū)的一個(gè)很小卻友善的村莊，并立刻喜歡上了它。suddenly突然；finally最終；nearly將近，接近；immediately立刻，馬上。根據(jù)句意可知D項(xiàng)正確。]

10.10】答案　D　[句意：我不斷往返于倫敦和這個(gè)地方，我的心情也比數(shù)月前輕松多了。由上下文可知，這次旅行醫(yī)治了作者內(nèi)心的傷痛，其心情也逐漸輕松起來(lái)。smart時(shí)髦的，聰明的；high高的；firm堅(jiān)定的；light輕松的。]

12.12】答案　D　[句意：我們相愛(ài)了。一開(kāi)始，我并未想到要談婚論嫁。travel 旅行；business生意；children孩子；marriage婚姻。根據(jù)上文We fell in love.及下文作者依然對(duì)母親的去世感到悲傷可推斷此處作者雖然愛(ài)保羅，卻沒(méi)想到要與他結(jié)婚。根據(jù)邏輯推理可知D項(xiàng)正確。]

13.13】答案　C　[句意：……因?yàn)槭�去母親的悲痛仍然感覺(jué)很強(qiáng)烈。結(jié)合上文作者雖然愛(ài)保羅卻并未想到要談婚論嫁可知，失去母親之痛仍折磨著作者。recently最近；once曾經(jīng)；still仍舊，依然；firstly首先。根據(jù)句意可知C項(xiàng)正確。]

18.18】答案　D　[句意：現(xiàn)在我們生活得非常好，母親很自然地能感受到這些。feel此處與part of搭配，字面意思表示“感受到其中的一部分”。take拿，��；keep保留；look看，均不符合句意。根據(jù)語(yǔ)境可知D項(xiàng)正確。]

19.19】答案　C　[句意：……因?yàn)槿绻麤](méi)有她給我的項(xiàng)鏈，我們不可能來(lái)到這里。unless除非；while當(dāng)……時(shí)候；because因?yàn)�；though雖然；根據(jù)上下文邏輯關(guān)系及語(yǔ)意可知C項(xiàng)正確。]
