On a hot summer day in late August, I sought shade and a cool drink at a waterfront café on a Greek island. Over a hundred degrees in    1   air. Crowded. Tempers(脾气)of both the tourists and waiters had    2  to meet the situation, making it a rather quarrelsome environment(环境)

At the table next to mine sat an attractive,    3   couple, waiting for    4 .  They held hands, whispered, kissed, and laughed. Suddenly they stood, picked up their    5   and stepped together    6   the edge of where they were sitting to place the table in the sea water. The man stepped   7  for the two chairs. He politely   8  his lady in the knee-deep water and then sat down himself. All people around laughed and cheered.

  9  appeared. He paused for just a second, walked into the water to   10   the table and take their   11  , and then walked back to the    12   cheers of the rest of his    13 . Minutes later he returned carrying a bottle of wine and two glasses. Without pausing, he went    14   into the water to     15    the wine. The couple toasted(祝酒)each other, the waiter and the crowd. And the crowd   16  by cheering and throwing flowers to them. Three other tables  17  to have lunch in the water. The place was now filled with laughter.

One doesn’t step into water in one’s best summer clothes. Why not?

Customers are not served    18   . Why not?

Sometimes one should consider   19  the line of convention(常规)and enjoy   20  to the fullest.

1.C 2.D 3.C 4.B 5.A 6.B 7.D 8.B 9.C 10.A 11.D 12.A 13.B 14.C 15.D 16.A 17.B 18.C 19.D 20.A 【解析】 试题分析:本文通过我在餐馆就餐的经历,说明了人们应该尽情享受“生活”。 1.:根据本句前面部分的描写可知天气十分炎热,空气“静止不动”。still“静止的;不动的”,此处表示无风。A和B明显错误,因为是在a hot summer day,温度是Over a hundred degrees。炎热和空气稀薄是没有关系的,所以D也不对。故选C。 2.:在这种闷热的天气下,游客和服务员自然很容易发脾气。前三项的主语一般都是“人”而此句的主语是tempers,所以只有D项正确。特别注意联系下一句to meet the situation,making it a rather quarrelsome environment(环境),故选D。 3.根据对他们的动作描写可知二人“穿着讲究”。倒数第三段也提供了暗示。故选C。 4.根据前面的叙述可知作者在咖啡馆中,而他们的餐桌紧挨着作者,由此可推断他们在等待服务员的“服务”,故选B。 5. 根据本句后面的“...to place the table in the sea water”可知他们把“餐桌”放到了海水中。下文也有进一步的描写,故选A。 6.他们就坐的地方紧挨着海水,所以他们把桌子抬“离”这个地方并放到水中。文中第一段“...at a waterfront cafe...”也表明他们的位置靠近水面,故选B。 7.他们共同把桌子抬到水中后,男士又走“回来”取椅子,故选D。 8.他礼貌地请女士“坐在”膝深的海水中。本句后面的“...and then sat down himself”也是暗示。故选B。 9.:根据后面的描写Minutes later he returned carrying a bottle of wine and two glasses.可知其身份是“服务员”。故选C。 10.set the table表示“摆放桌子”。而remove the table是“搬走桌子”。上文可以看出,桌子已经在水中了,不用再搬。从下文看,桌子也没有被搬出去。故选A。 11.take ones order,服务员让这对夫妇“点菜”。名词menu“菜单”,事实上还没有为他们的服务,那么顾客从哪儿拿来的菜单呢?关键是这也不符合英语表达习惯。故选D。 12.根据上一段最后一句All people around laughed and cheered.可以看出那个场面很热闹,判断A项正确。故选A。 13.注意这里是the rest of his,根据上下文联系,服务员的服务对象是“顾客”。倒数第二段也提供了暗示。C项既不符合清理(服务员不可能在上班期间聚在一起看热闹),也不符合上下文内容。A项和前面的his所暗示的情景不吻合,因此不可选。故选B。 14.上文提到他已经进入水中一次所以应该是“再次”走进水中,故选C。 15.服务员的本职工作是给客人“服务”,所以排除其余三项。动词serve的意思为“上菜、上酒”等,故选D。 16.根据The couple toasted(祝酒) each other,the waiter and the crowd.可以看出其他人(the waiter and the crow)是作出了“回应”,在场的人显然对他们产生了浓厚的兴趣,所以用欢呼和投掷鲜花的方式“回答”他们,故选A。 17.另外三个餐桌的客人也效仿这对夫妇,“加入”了他们的行列。C项表示“清偿;了结”,与所给语境不符,故选B。 18.作者显然是在质疑:在如此炎热的天气中为什么不在“海水中”为顾客服务呢?故选C。 19.上文提到的那对夫妇“打破”常规,将餐桌搬到了海水中,与此处相呼应。前两项意思基本相同,应排除。故选D。 20.此处是文章主题的升华呼吁人们应该尽情享受“生活”。后三项只是文章提到的部分内容,因此不可选,故选A。 考点:日常生活类短文完形填空
