　　63 A written B hidden C mirrored D stricken

　　64 A contributed B distributed C attributed D showed

　　65 A tell B says C informs D expresses

　　答案:

　　51 B 該段中有這樣一個短語"particularly difficult to catch"(很難找到他)，"well known for keeping himself to himself"是"以與世隔絕為大家熟知".可以看出，根據(jù)下文，用"well known"最為合適。

　　52 A hold：抱住;拿住。run into和bump into都有"撞上"的意思，這是不由一個人的主觀意志所能控制的。

　　53 D 對第一段做解釋時，提到了上下文可以幫助我們做出正確的判斷。緊隨其后的是"It came as a complete surprise."(這個獎來得很突然)。"shock"和"surprise"意思很接近，因此選擇"shocked"是對的。

　　54 c like作"喜歡"解時是動詞，而此處需要的是一個名詞。devotion后面跟"to"，attraction是"吸引"的意思。填入后意思不太合適。因此只有"love"是正確的選項。

　　55 A despite引導(dǎo)的是一個反比，主旬中有一個"easy"，那么它的反義詞就是"difficult".

　　56 B "幻make a breakthrough"等于"t0 break through".是周定的搭配。

　　57 c "t0 take one's place"是"處于某種位子"， 是固定的說法。

　　58 C 這里需要填入的是一個不及物動詞，"received"，"obtained"，"had"都是及物動詞，只有"won"既可作及物動詞，又可作不及物動詞。

　　59 A 在這四個動詞中，只有"deal"可跟"with"搭配。

　　60 D 整個句子說的是：在處理這個國家依然存在的暴力，犯罪和種族隔離問題，他的書能使一般人從內(nèi)部理解種族隔離。"從……角度"常用"from…".

　　61 D "casts its shadow"是"給……帶來影響"，是固定的搭配。

　　62 B "think twice"相當(dāng)于漢語中的"三思而后行".正如漢語中不說"二思而后行"一樣，英文中也不說"think three times"，這是固定的說法。

　　63 c 該句子的意思是，他作品中的純潔性反映到了他的個人生活中，"mirrored"是"反映"的意思。

　　64 A 從下文"far greater than the things he has given up"(比起他放棄的東西要多得多)來看，選擇"contributed"是對的。全句說的是：但是，他對文學(xué)、文化、南非人民所做出的貢獻(xiàn)比起他放棄的東西要多得多。

　　65 D 其他三個動詞填入后生成的都是不合格的句子。
