【解析】

1.

解析　根据下文“There was a motorcycle accident.”可知，这是一次交通事故中摩托车镜子的碎片。

2.2】　B

解析　由下文作者想把碎片找全，可知tried符合语境。

3.3】　C

解析　根据语境可知，作者想把所有的碎片都找齐并且把它们复原。

4.4】　D

解析　根据上下文可知，作者想把碎片找齐复原但是不可能，这面镜子碎得很厉害，既然要使用当然选最大的一块碎片。

5.5】B

解析　根据as a toy可知，作者把它当玩具玩。

6.6】　B

解析　镜子反射光，是作者发现的一个事实，故用fact。

7.7】　A

解析　根据“...where the sun would never shine...”可知，阳光照不到深洞里。

8.8】　C

解析　根据上文可知，作者利用镜子反光的作用，把光反射到黑暗的地方，get符合语境。

9.9】　A

解析　根据下文“...as I grew up，I would take it out...”可知作者长大之后还一直保存着这个镜子，故选A项。

10.0】　C

解析　根据语境，当作者没事做时，会把那个小镜子拿出来，故选when。

11.1】　B

解析　根据上文，作者小时候玩镜子反光的游戏，可知当他无事可做时，仍然继续这个游戏，continue符合语境。

12.2】　A

解析　当作者长大成人后，作者认识到用镜子把光反射到黑暗的地方不仅仅是孩子的游戏。just符合语境。

13.3】　D

解析　根据下文可知，此处表示这不仅仅是孩子的游戏，而且也是作者如何对待生活的比喻。do with对待，符合语境。get from从……获得；owe to把……归于；tell about谈论关于……。

14.4】　C

解析　根据下文作者所得出的结论，可知此处表示作者逐渐明白……。

15.5】　D

解析　只要我们用光源反射光，就能给黑暗的地方带来光亮，两个分句之间是条件关系，故选only if。

解析　与第一段照应。作者把自己比作当初找到的那个镜子碎片，尽管完整镜子的形状作者并不知道。

17.7】　B

解析　尽管作者不知道完整镜子的形状，但是作者能用他拥有的碎片把光反射到黑暗的地方，这句与前句是转折关系，however符合语境。
