若單獨看空格處,選項B、C、D都可以填,從文章內(nèi)容或常識來看,諾貝爾獎金應當是獎給那些為世界和平、文學和科學等領(lǐng)域“作出過巨大貢獻”的人,故只能選D。真題演練(2010陜西)Iusedtoliveselfishly,Ishouldadmit.Butonemomentchangedme.Iwasonmylunchbreakandhad1theofficetogetsomethingtoeat.1.A.left B.cleanedC.prepared D.searched1.A由本句中的togetsomethingtoeat及后文內(nèi)容可知,作者“離開”了辦公室外出了。Ontheway,I2abusker(街頭藝人)，withahatinfrontofhim.Ihadsome3inmypocket,butIwouldnotgivethemtohim，thinkingtomyselfhewouldonlyusethemoneytofeedhisaddictiontodrugsoralcohol.2.A.led B.chose C.saw D.fooled2.C由末段中Isawthebuskeragain可提到啟示。3.A.chocolates B.coins C.tinsD.drugs3.B根據(jù)空后的inmypocket可以推斷出。He4likethattype-youngandragged.ButwhatwasIgoingtospendthemoneyon?OnlytofeedmyaddictiontoCoca-Colaorchocolate!Ithen5Ihadnorighttoplacemyselfabovehimjustbecausehewasbusking.4.A.actedB.lookedC.soundedD.smelt4.B根據(jù)本句中的youngandragged可以推斷出所填詞和like構(gòu)成搭配,意思是：看起來像。5.A.declaredB.realizedC.expectedD.guessed5.B句意是：后來我意識到我不能把我置于他之上,因為他在街頭賣藝。I6anddroppedallthecoinsintohis7,andhesmiledatme,Iwatchedforawhile.6.A.waitedB.followedC.stoppedD.arrived6.C由后文的dropped和walkedoff可以推斷出此處所填詞意思是：停下來。7.A.rag B.hat C.pocketD.counter7.B由前文的withahatinfrontofhim可知。As8asitsounds,Iexpectedsomethingmoretocomefromthatmomentafeelingof9orsatisfaction,forexample.8.A.selfish B.awkwardC.innocent D.special8.A根據(jù)文章首句可知。A.happinessB.sadnessC.loveD.hate9.A所填詞與satisfaction并列,意思應該相近,由此可以推斷出。Butnothinghappened.10,Iwalkedoff.“Itprovedtobeawasteof11，”Ithought.10.A.Disappointedly B.UnfortunatelyC.Coincidentally D.Comfortably10.A根據(jù)前一句Butnothinghappened可知此處選A,意思是：失望地。11.A.wordsB.effortC.spaceD.money11.D由前文的coins可知。Onmywayhomeattheendofthe12,Isawthebuskeragainandhewas13.Iwatchedhimpickupthehatandwalktoacafecounter.
