文章

It's a fantasy that goes back centuries: a message in a bottle, carried ashore from far-off lands. Authors, artists and children __26__ have dreamed of such a gift from the sea.

This time, though, it's not a bottle that washes ashore. It's eggs—thousands of little toy eggs.

That's what happened on the German island of Langegoog this week.

Lying just off the North Sea coast, it found itself __27__ by an invasion of colored plastic eggs- much to the __28__ of local children, because the eggs contained toys.

Police __29__ the eggs came from a freighter that lost part of its cargo during an unusually __30__ storm, the worst to hit Germany's northeastern coast since 2006.

At any rate, what was lost has now been found by many of the community's littlest residents.

"The surprise eggs have found their way to freedom," said Mayor Uwe Garrels. However, the joy of the moment __31__ off soon.

"At first I thought this was a wonder, because everything was so __32__ . but then we realized that this is a huge __33__ in the end," said the mayor. He also noted the plastic bags and other materials that have washed ashore on the island can cause serious problems for __34__.

Still, all these little eggs contained an extra treat with their toys. They __35__ notes from afar. There was just one problem for the German children who received them: They were written in Russian.

逐空解析

26. 答案:O(alike)

空格在主语'Authors, artists and children'之后、谓语'have dreamed'之前。alike 作副词置于并列名词之后,表示『(这些人)全都一样地』,意为作家、艺术家和孩子们都曾梦想得到这样来自大海的礼物。similar 需作表语或定语、不能这样后置修饰整组主语,排除。故选 O alike。

27. 答案:D(struck)

句式'it found itself ___ by an invasion of colored plastic eggs'需要过去分词作宾语补足语,与 by 构成被动。struck(strike 的过去分词)意为『遭到……侵袭』,指小岛被成千上万塑料彩蛋『侵袭』。overthrown『被推翻』语义不符,排除。故选 D struck。

28. 答案:L(delight)

固定结构'much to the ___ of sb.'后接名词,表示『令某人非常……』。because 从句说明彩蛋里有玩具,故孩子们的反应是 delight(高兴)。其余名词 mess/quantity/wildlife 语义不符。故选 L delight。

29. 答案:C(suspect)

空格作主语'Police'的谓语,后接宾语从句'the eggs came from a freighter',需一般现在时动词原形。suspect『怀疑、推测』,意为警方推测这些彩蛋来自一艘货船。故选 C suspect。

30. 答案:I(intense)

空格在'an unusually ___ storm'中,副词 unusually 后需形容词修饰 storm。intense『强烈的、剧烈的』,与后文'the worst to hit Germany's northeastern coast since 2006'呼应,指一场异常强烈的风暴。effective/similar 语义不符。故选 I intense。

31. 答案:A(wore)

空格作主语'the joy of the moment'的谓语,与副词 off 构成短语动词 wear off『(感觉)逐渐消退』,需过去式。wore(wear 的过去式)意为那一刻的喜悦很快消退。结合下文市长意识到是大麻烦,语义吻合。故选 A wore。

32. 答案:M(colorful)

'everything was so ___'中 so 后需形容词作表语。colorful『多彩的』,照应前文上岸的彩色塑料蛋(colored plastic eggs),市长起初觉得是奇迹因为一切如此缤纷。故选 M colorful。

33. 答案:H(mess)

'a huge ___ in the end'中不定冠词 a 后需可数名词。mess『混乱、麻烦』,与前句 wonder 形成转折(but),市长意识到这最终是个大麻烦。quantity 与 a huge 搭配但语义指『大量』,不合此处『麻烦』的转折逻辑。故选 H mess。

34. 答案:B(wildlife)

'cause serious problems for ___'中介词 for 后需名词。wildlife『野生动物』,指塑料袋等漂上岸的材料会给岛上野生动物带来严重问题,符合环保语境。human 虽为名词,但上文讲的是塑料对自然生态的危害,wildlife 更贴切。故选 B wildlife。

35. 答案:N(bore)

'They ___ notes from afar'中主语 They(彩蛋)后需谓语动词,宾语为 notes,全文叙事用过去时。bore(bear 的过去式)意为『携带、承载』,指这些彩蛋还带着来自远方的纸条。wore 语义不符。故选 N bore。
