I found   2   and because of my shaking hands, I could   3   get it to my lips. But I had no matches, they had taken those. I looked   4   the bars at my jailer. He did not make eye contact with me. I   5   to him “Have you got a light?” He looked at me, shrugged and came over to light my cigarette.   6   he came close and lit the match, his eyes inadvertently locked with mine. At that moment, I   7  . I don't know why I did that. Perhaps it was   8  , perhaps it was because, when you get very, one to another, it is very   9   not to smile. In that instant, it was   10   a spark jumped across the gap between our two hearts, our two human souls. I know he didn't want to, but my smile leaped through the bars and generated smile on his lips, too. He lit my cigarette but   11  , looking at me directly in the eyes and continuing to smile.

  I   12   smiling at him, now aware of him as a(n)   13   and not just a jailer. And his looking at me seemed to have a new   14   too. “Do you have kids?” he asked. “Yes, here, here.” I took out my wallet and nervously fumbled for the   15   of my family. He, too, took out the pictures of his family and began to talk about his plans and hopes for them. My eyes filled with tears. I said that I feared that I'd never see my family again, never have the chance to see them grow up. Tears came to his eyes, too.   16   without another word, he   17   my cell (牢房) and silently led me out．Out of the jail，quietly and by back routes，out of the town.

解析:

1.(C)《微笑》是法国作家安东尼·圣艾修伯里的作品，圣艾修伯里是名飞行员，二次大战对抗纳粹时被击落身亡，之前他也曾参加西班牙内战打击法西斯分子。他根据这次经验写了一篇精彩的故事——《微笑》。他的代表作《小王子》是美国人都很熟悉的童话故事。此处的escaped their search字面上就表示出“(烟)逃离了他们的搜查”，也就是“没有被他们搜走(的烟)”。

2.(D) lone指代前文中的一支烟。

3.(A) 因为“手抖”，所以“好不容易地”把烟放进嘴里。

4.(B) bars指监狱的铁窗，透过铁窗的间隙看着狱卒，下文也有提示。

5.(C) 根据下文的(狱卒)“came over”判断我们隔着些距离，应该是“大声叫道”。

6.(A) 当他靠近的时候。

7.(D) 那一刻，我微笑了。也正是这一微笑，消除了他们之间的隔阂。

8.(B) 可能是因为紧张，这是对一位蹲监狱的人的一种合乎逻辑的推测。

9.(B) 当你如此靠近另一个人，你很难不对他微笑。

10.(C) 微笑如同火花般，打破了我们心灵间的隔阂。

11.(D) 根据“looking at me directly in the eyes”可判断出。

12.(A) 狱卒朝我微笑，我自然也微笑，认识到他不仅仅是一名狱卒。

13.(D) 认识到他不仅仅是一名狱卒，也是一个有血有肉有感情的人。

14.(A) 下文他突然问及孩子，所以这里是有了另外一个念头。

15.(C) 根据下文“He，too，took out the pictures of his family……”可知。

16.(D) 狱卒听作者说他的家庭孩子，不禁触及他内心柔软的部分令他落泪，"突然" 二话不说打开门让他逃走。

17.(B) unlocked打开(牢房)

18.(C) 是微笑“救了”他的命。

19.(B) 微笑是人与人之间最自然真挚的沟通方式。

20.(D) 如果我们能用心灵去认识彼此，世间不会有结怨成仇的憾事；恨意、嫉妒、恐惧也会不复存在。
