When I woke next morning, I was dying of _1__. I seemed to have a hole instead of a _2__. I dressed quickly and hurried down to the dinning-room. It was a big room with six tall windows and the ugliest wallpaper I had ever seen! _3_, I had been told the hotel was not beautiful but that you were better __4_ there than in any other hotel; and that was _5__ I wanted just then.
The waiter came hurrying up. Before I came downstairs I had prepared __6__ carefully for what I must __7__. I had looked three times in my dictionary to make sure __8__ “breakfast” really meant “breakfast”. I had tried to get the right __9_ and I had stood in the front of a mirror and twisted my mouth until it ached.
The waiter asked me _10__ I could not understand, but I spoke only my one prepared word “breakfast”. He looked at me in a 11 way. So I repeated it. Still he did not understand. It was 12 that English people didn’t understand their language. The waiter 13 his head and went away, but he came back in a minute and brought a tray with tea, bread and butter — enough to feed a small army — and went away. But I was hungry, and I left 14 . When the waiter came back I thought his face showed a little 15 , but you can never __16_. What a waiter’s face really shows! In another minute he brought _17__ tray with some bacon(熏肉) and some eggs. He 18 have misunderstood me, but I thought it was no use explaining to people who don’t understand their own language, so I just set to work on the bacon and eggs, wondering whether I could possibly clear that plate.
Well, I finished the bacon and eggs. I got up and made my way slowly to my room — at least five pound 19 . I never believed until then that any meal could 20 me, but on that day I met my Waterloo(滑铁卢).

答案
解析
2. 饿了的时候,胃是空的。
3. however (然而;可是)多插在句子中间,有时放在句首或句末,由逗号隔开。本题空格后有逗号,故选D。
4. feed sb. =" give" food to sb. 提供的饭菜较好,而不单纯指吃这个动作。
5. what 在这里引导主语从句在从句中做wanted 的宾语。
6. prepare (sb.)ready for , 而且下面谈到了做准备的过程。
7. say应有宾语,句中what 起宾语作用。对我要说的话做了认真的准备。即在饭店里要用哪些词。explain要有explain sth to sb。
8. 从句子结构看,句中需要一个连接词来引导宾语从句。所以要选that而不是其他的介词。
9. 练习单词的拼写或搞懂词义不一定对着镜子练,故排除其他选项。
10.该句的含义是:“那位男服务员问了些我听不懂的话”。如果填入D的话,句子的含义为“问我有什么不懂的”,这就违背了句子的意愿。
11. 他答非所问,男招待迷惑不解。
12. unbelievable的意思是“难以置信”。英国人不懂自己的语言,真令人难以置信。作者只是惊讶,而未遗憾。
13. 男招待摇头表示没听懂。bowed his head 表示相反的含义。
14. 他饿极了,吃光了食物,与故事开头相呼应。
15. 吃下了许多食物使这位男招待着实有点吃惊。
16. 难得说清楚这位男招待的表情。tell有“辨别”的意思。
17. another 常表示“另一”。如: Drink another glass of milk.
18. must have done 表示对过去事情的肯定推测。
19. heavy 是一般用语,weighty 多用于比喻。吃了许多食物,至少重了五磅。
20. 根据故事结尾而得到答案。I met my Waterloo =" I" was completely defeated (Napoleon was defeated at Wateloo in 1815.)

举一反三
Sometimes, people think they already know the answer to a question or the solution (解决办法) to a problem. Sometimes, they really do know an answer or a solution, but without thinking they are important.
Charles Darwin didn’t settle for (满足于) just thinking he knew something. And, he believed all things could be important however simple they seemed to be.
Suppose you drop sheets of paper that are of exactly the same size and shape. If you drop them at the same time in the same place, they will fall in the same way. Now make one of the sheets of paper into a tight (紧的) little ball and let it drop along with the other sheets. What happens? You have done an experiment that is so simple that you might think it couldn’t be worth anything.
But this simple experiment is important. It explains part of our present-day understandings of physics, ideas that were worked out long ago by Galileo and Newton. And these understandings set aside some of ancient Greek physics.
Scientist sometimes stops to look at very simple things and to think very hard about them. Even the simplest idea, which we might think is foolish, can shake the foundations of science.

A.Darwin really did fools experiments. |
B.According to some people Darwin did foolish experiments. |
C.It is believed by all the people that things could be important though they seemed to be simple. |
D.Galileo and Newton worked out ancient Greek physics. |
One of the Bacon’s best-known books was his Essays. Each essay was a short piece of writing in which he tried to give a lesson by discussing sides of a subject such as studying, conversation, friends and healthy living. In many of his books, Bacon explained how scientists should study things as they really existed in nature and then tried to figure out what caused a particular thing to be as it was. Later, by doing experiments, the scientist could see that any one cause would always have the same result. This method, which is called inductive reasoning, is used by all the scientists today, but it was new in Bacon’s time.
5. 小题1:According to the passage we know that ____.
A.Francis Bacon was the most important philosopher of England |
B.Francis Bacon had good education |

A.to discover general laws from particular facts or examples |
B.to reach a conclusion by reasoning from general laws to a particular case |
C.to study things as they used to be |
