答案:
1. B) 【句意】 我刚一走进房间时一定表现得很痛苦,因为我遇到的第一个人同情地问我:你没事吧?
【难点】must与完成时不定式连用往往表示对过去发生的事情的主观推测,常译成一定是。
2. C) 【句意】 只有当你快要失去什么人时,你才充分意识到他对你是多么重要。
【难点】 该句是一个典型的强调句式,即It is...that...。
3. B) 【句意】 正像土壤是地球的一部分,大气层也是。

【难点】 此句为一个带有时间状语从句的主从复合句。在英语中,由while, when等引导的时间状语从句,如果其主语与主句中的主语相同,从句中的主语可以省略,而只剩下分词短语。驾车的应该是人,所以只能从C)和D)选,而D)的意义不符,所以选C)。
5. C) 【句意】 杰恩瓦格那对亚非诗歌最永恒的贡献是他坚持认为,这类诗歌除用凡俗的参考框架,还应用宗教的参考框架进行研究。
