20. C that（特定的）那一类、那一个，it特指同一个，one泛指同一类。 C

这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。作者通过自己晚上在黑暗中找灯这件小事，想到世上人人都可能处于“黑暗”之中，如果我们都能用自己的“爱心”之灯去温暖他人，世界将变的更加美好。 1．D. 根据上文晚上头顶的灯坏了，可知我找寻钥匙孔有困难，故选D. difficult。 2．A. 根据下文可知，“我”已经把门打开。Manage to do sth. 表成功地做某事。 3．B. 根据文意可知，由于晚上没有灯，“我”只好摸索前进，只有felt表此意。

4．D. 根据“but no switch”可以推知，“我”认为那里曾经安装了开关，因此在那里摸索，结果并没

有，只有once能表示此意。

5．C. 上文提到这是一个旅馆，自己是暂时住到这里，排除了A项。从下文一句when I deposited my

luggage可推知C项正确，注意spot此处意为“注意到，看到，发现”。

6．B. 从上文remembered可知，“我”在那天早些时候发现有开关，现在仍然记得，故选B。 7．B. 因为是晚上，所以选择dark。

8．A. 根据文意排除了C、D。句子的主语是nothing而非lamp，故动词operated不正确。因此，

只有A项正确。

9．B. 根据文意和下文curtains可推知，“我”现在处在黑暗中，只能拉开窗帘，靠外部街道上的光

来找到另一盏灯，故选B。

10．C. 根据文意和下文slowly across the room可知，“我”现在摸索着去拉窗帘。Make one?s way

意为“前往，到……去”，符合文意。

11．B. 根据文意和下文actually可知，我最终找到了灯，故选until。

12．C. 根据主语a desk lamp和副词actually可知，这盏灯亮了。此意只有work可以表达。 13．A. 根据文意，“我”此时心有所感，世界有时是多么黑暗，而灯是如此必要！can可以表示“有

时会……，时而可能”，故选A项。

14．D. 根据文意和下句the light that shines from people可知，人们“内心的灯光”比实际的灯光更有

必要。Physical在此意为“物质的，有形的”。

15．B. 由文意可知，我们心中应该有“爱和信任”之灯，才能战胜discouragement、sadness、fear，

故选love。

16．A. 由文意和dark可知，有时我们中许多人会处在黑暗和孤独的世界，故选lonely。 17．D. 由文意可知，当人们失望、难过和害怕时会需要帮助，因此选D项need。 18．B. 由上文So let your light shine.可知，作者在鼓励我们要主动去帮助别人，故选B。 19．C. 细心揣摩文意可知，我们的爱心之灯在茫茫的黑暗中是如此渺小，好象是森林中的一只蜡

烛，故选no more than正确。

20．A. 由文意可知，黑暗再强大，也没有足够的力量扑灭小如蜡烛的“爱心之灯”，故选A项put out

最佳。
