完形填空This is a real life story of the engineers building the Brooklyn Bridge in New York, USA back in 1870. The bridge was pleted in 1883, after 13 years. In 1869, a creative engineer named John Roebling was1by an idea to build a spectacular bridge2New York with the Long Island.3, bridge-building experts throughout the world thought that this was impossible and told Roebling to forget the idea.Roebling could not ignore the vision he had in his mind of this bridge. After much discussion and persuasion he4to convince his son Washington, an up and ing engineer, that the bridge5could be built. The project started well, but when it was only a few months underway, a tragic accident took the life of John Roebling. Washington was also injured and left with a certain amount of brain damage, which6him not being able to talk or walk.7his handicap, Washington was never discouraged and still had a burning8to plete the bridge and his mind was still as9as ever. He didn’t want to 10. Suddenly an idea11him. All he could do was move one12and he decided to make the best use of it. By moving this, he13developed a code of munication with his wife.For 13 years Washington tapped out his14with his finger on his wife’s arm, until the bridge was finally pleted. Today the spectacular Brooklyn Bridge stands for his determination not to be 15by circumstances. It stands too as a monument to the love and16of his wife who for 13 years long17decoded(解码)the messages of her husband and told the engineers what to do.Perhaps this is one of the best examples of a never-say-die attitude that overes a terrible physical handicap and achieves a(n)18goal. Often when we face obstacles in our day-to-day life, our hurdles(障碍) seem very small in parison to what many others have to face.

ABCCA BDABC ACACB BADCA解析文章讲述的是一个工程师虽然身体残疾，但是还是用一个唯一可以移动的手指来指挥完成了不可能完成的任务。1.上下文，根据后面的an idea to build a spectacular bridge可知，此处意为他受到了一个建造一座壮观的大桥的激发/受到了启示/给予了灵感2.考查动词辨析，句意为建造一座连接纽约和长岛的大桥，connect意为连接 collect 意为收集，contact意为联系 bine意为结合3.上下文，根据后文工程师都认为这不可能可知，此处表示转折。4.上下文，根据后文可知他成功地说服了他的儿子，manage意为成功干了某事5.考查词组辨析，in fact事实上 in turn 轮流 in need 需要 in general 总之，一般而言。句意为他成功说服他的儿子，告诉他大桥实际上是可以建造的。6.词组辨析，result in 导致，bring in 引进，put in提出，提交 take in 接受，理解，欺骗。句意为大脑损伤导致他不能说话，不能走路。7.句意理解，句意为尽管他残疾了但是他没有气馁，仍然有强烈的完成大桥的渴望。8.同上9.考查形容词辨析，sharp意为敏捷的，此处意为思维敏捷。10.上下文，根据上文他想完成这个大桥可知，他不想放弃。11.an idea hit him意为，突然想到了一个主意12.上下文，根据29空的With his finger可知13.上下文，因为他只有一个手指可以动，所以是缓慢地开发出一种交流的密码。14.上下文，根据32空后面的told the engineers what to do 可知，这里填的是他的指令，命令15.上下文，他坚强的决心不受环境的影响。16.上下文，根据who for 13 years long patiently ……可知，此处意为奉献。17.13年耐心的解码工作18.上下文，他完成了不可能完成的目标。19.根据后面的realize可知，此处意为实现梦想。20.根据上文可知，无论遇到什么困难，他都可以用决心和毅力实现他的梦想。
