文章大意：作者用一名古希腊诗人遭遇沉船事故之后的经历告诉我们：钱乃身外之物，智慧才是永恒的财富。
1．A．return
B．get
C．visit
D．come
答案：A return意为“返回，回去”；get意为“得到”；visit意为“参观，拜访”；come意为“到来”。前文说Simonides在亚洲各大名城旅游，根据此空后的to his native land by sea可知他要返回家乡，故A项正确。
2．A．hit
B．caught
C．struck
D．seized
答案：B 根据此空后的in a terrible storm可知，此处表示他坐的船遇到了风暴，get/be caught in意为“被困于，遭到”，固定结构，符合语境。
3．A．break
B．drown
C．fall
D．sink
答案：D break意为“打破”；drown意为“淹没”；fall意为“下降”；sink意为“下沉”。根据空前的描述together with its own poor condition可知船很破旧，遇到暴风雨之后就开始下沉，故D项正确。
4．A．gathering
B．keeping
C．joining
D．carrying
答案：A gather意为“收集”；keep意为“保存”；join意为“参加，加入”；carry意为“拿，携带”。根据此空后的together their bags可知此处表示一些乘客忙着收拾自己的行李，gather together意为“收拢，归拢(分散的东西)”，为固定结构，符合语境。
5．A．common
B．formal
C．precious
D．previous
答案：C common意为“共同的，普通的”；formal意为“正式的”；precious意为“珍贵的”；previous意为“以前的，先前的”。根据语境可知船要沉了，乘客收拾行李时会拿珍贵的东西，故C项正确。
6．A．millionaire
B．example
C．fool
D．exception
答案：D millionaire意为“百万富翁”；example意为“例子”；fool意为“傻瓜”；exception意为“例外”。根据此空前的To everyone's surprise可知，此处表示人人都在收拾行李，只有Simonides是个例外，故D项正确。
7．A．slightly
B．extremely
C．gradually
D．generally
答案：B slightly意为“轻微地，些许地”；extremely意为“非常，极其”；gradually意为“逐渐地”；generally意为“通常，普通地”。根据语境可知此处表示有一个人对Simonides的反应感到非常好奇，故B项正确。
8．A．nothing
B．few
C．none
D．no one
答案：C 根据下文All my possessions are __9__ me可知此处用none表示“全无，没有一点儿”。
9．A．about
B．around
C．of
D．for
答案：A 根据文章最后一句中的I told you that all my property was about me...可知此处填about，Simonides认为他自己就是所有的财产，故A项正确。
10．A．effort
B．effect
C．escape
D．attempt
答案：C effort意为“努力”；effect意为“效果”；escape意为“逃脱，逃离”；attempt意为“试图”。根据后文the majority，being weighed down by their burdens，disappeared in the sea“大多数人被背上的东西所累，消失在了海中”可知，此处与后文对比，讲一小部分人活了下来。make one's escape意为“逃脱”，为固定短语，故C项正确。
11．A．In fact
B．In brief
C．After all
D．Worse still
答案：D in fact意为“事实上”；in brief意为“简言之”；after all意为“毕竟，终究”；worse still意为“更糟糕的是”。根据此空后的some thieves made their appearance可知，此处表示意义上的递进，故D项正确。
12．A．that
B．what
C．which
D．when
答案：B 分析句子成分后可知，所填词引导宾语从句，且从句中the few lucky people had saved中的save后缺少宾语，故用what引导，故B项正确。
13．A．related to
B．adapted to
C．determined to
D．devoted to
答案：D related to意为“与……有关”；adapted to意为“适合，适应于”；determined to意为“有做……的决心”；devoted to意为“致力于”。此处表示一名富人致力于追求文学，A、B两项不符合语境。determined to后接动词不定式，devoted to后接名词或动名词，故D项正确。
14A．adviser
B．listener
C．admirer
D．buyer
答案：C adviser意为“顾问；劝告者”；listener意为“听众”；admirer意为“崇拜者”；buyer意为“买主”。根据此空前的He had often read the poems of Simonides可知这个富人喜欢读Simonides的诗歌，因此可见他是Simonides的崇拜者，故C项正确。
15．A．Unluckily
B．Fortunately
C．Naturally
D．Frequently
答案：B unluckily意为“不幸地”；fortunately意为“幸运地”；naturally意为“自然地”；frequently意为“频繁地”。根据此空后的Simonides was saved by this man shortly after he got to the beach可知，这对Simonides来说是一件很幸运的事，故选B项。
16．A．ordered
B．forced
C．received
D．begged
答案：C order意为“命令”；force意为“强迫”；receive意为“接受，收到”；beg意为“乞求”。根据此空后的．..with the greatest pleasure可知此处表示这个富人高兴地接Simonides到他家里，故C项正确。
17．A．provided
B．offered
C．showed
D．afforded
答案：A provide意为“提供”；offer意为“提供”；show意为“显示，说明”；afford意为“支付得起”。根据语境可知此处表示这个富人还为Simonides提供了衣服、钱及侍从，provide sb.with sth.意为“给某人提供某物”，符合语境。
【易错警示】注意offer也有“提供”的意思，但其用法是offer sb.sth.或者offer sth.to sb.要分清其结构搭配上的区别。
18．A．villagers
B．writers
C．stealers
D．survivors
答案：D villagers意为“村民”；writers意为“作者”；stealers意为“偷窃者”；survivors意为“幸存者”。根据语境可知，此处表示同一条船上的其他幸存者的境遇，故D项正确。
19．A．hoped
B．happened
C．managed
D．demanded
答案：B hope意为“希望”；happen意为“发生”；manage意为“管理，经营”；demand意为“要求，需要”。Simonides碰巧遇到他们，此处用happen to do sth.意为“碰巧做某事”。

Mr. Woods：Thank you.

文章大意：本文是Mr. Woods的订房电话。
答案：
1．called 由时间状语“last week”可知，用一般过去时。
2．a wait a second“请等一下，请稍等”。
3．to stay plan to do“打算做某事”。你打算住多久？
4．Probably 此处为省略句。完整表达为I plan to stay probably two days。
5．for leave for“前往……”。
6．Each 由句意可知，此处表示所有房间都有淋浴室。再由后面谓语动词为has可知，填each而非all。
7．preference have a preference for sth. “爱好某物，偏好某物”。
8．Actually/Besides 房间里是两张单人床，此外“Actually/Besides”，还可以俯瞰大海。空后的also是提示词。
9．where 此处为定语从句。先行词为floor，从句中缺少地点状语，所以填关系副词where。
10．or either...or...“或者……或者……”。
