(答案→)C 
解析:试题分析:一位酷爱艺术品收藏的老人,一生搜集艺术珍品无数,却没有一件能比自己为国捐躯的儿子的画像珍贵。
【小题1】考查形容词。由上下文的描述“a passion for art collecting”,“they traveled around the world”可以推测出,他们周游世界是在搜集世界上“最好的”艺术珍品。根据句意故选C。
【小题2】考查名词。由该段最后一句话“The young man had died while rushing a fellow soldier to a doctor.”可以看出,这里表达的意思是:有一年,随着冬天的来临,战争吞没了整个国家,小伙子离开家乡到前线报效国家。所以选war,意思是:战争。根据句意故选D。
【小题3】考查动词。save 挽救;help帮助;build建设。这里指的是年轻人参军保卫国家,所以选serve。serve the country意为:报效祖国。根据句意故选C.
【小题4】考查形容词。下一句告诉我们,这位父亲在等待更多的关于儿子的消息,担心再也见不到自己的儿子,由此可以看出,电报上只是说儿子失踪了,所以选missing,意为:失踪的。根据句意故选A。
【小题5】考查形容词。calmly 冷静地;quietly 安静地; secretly秘密地。收到了儿子在战场上失踪的电报,害怕再也见不到儿子,在等待更多消息的心情应该是“不安的”。根据句意故选B.
【小题6】考查动词。A.fearing害怕;B.doubting怀疑;C.wondering想知道;D.expecting期盼。这里指老人害怕再也见不到儿子。故选A。
【小题7】考查动词。plete 完成; double 加倍; remove移开。由下一句可以看出,他所担心的事情真的发生了,也就是说他的儿子真的牺牲了。故选D。
【小题8】考查形容词。儿子去世了,父亲感到很孤独,所以选lonely,意为:孤独的。A项的干扰性很大,但是该词意为:不安的,和and前的upset意思上重复。。根据句意故选C。
【小题9】考查名词。上一句中有选项的名词形式sadness复现。句意:圣诞节的上午,敲门声唤醒了这位(因失去儿子)伤心的老人。故选A。
【小题10】考查名词。由他自我介绍中的“I was the one he was      when he died. ”可以看出,这位来客就是老人的儿子牺牲时救的那个人,再结合第二段的“The young man had died while rushing a fellow soldier to a doctor.”可以看出,他也是一位士兵。故选soldier。下文中“the soldier told of how…”也提示了答案。故选B。
【小题11】考查名词。A.guard守卫;B.photographer照相的人;C.partner伙伴;D.friend朋友。这里指我是你儿子的朋友。故选D。
【小题12】考查动词。A.rescuing拯救;B.manding命令;C.guarding守卫;D.hiding隐藏。我是他拯救我的那个人。根据句意故选A
【小题13】考查动词。由语境以及下文的told可以看出,这两个人进行了一些谈话,所以选talk。根据句意故选C
【小题14】考查动词。对应第一段的“a passion for art collecting”,所以选love。句意:战士告诉老人,他儿子生前告诉大家他非常热爱艺术品,更不用说他的父亲了。可知应选B。
【小题15】考查名词。好的艺术作品都是艺术家创作的,而战士带来的礼物是战士自己画的,所以他要表达的意思是:我知道你很喜欢艺术珍品,我虽然不是艺术家,但是我画了一幅您儿子的肖像,送给您。所以选artist。故选A。
【小题16】考查副词。尽管这幅画画得不是多么好(也就是文章所表达的:世界上绝对不会有人认为这是一位天才画家的作品),但是却细致地勾画出了小伙子的面部特征。所以选never。根据句意故选B.
【小题17】考查短语搭配。in detail为固定搭配,意为:详细地。这里指绘画详尽地特写了年轻男人的脸。故选C。
【小题18】考查动词。A.thanked感激;B.questioned询问;C.weled欢迎;D.treated对待。收到了别人精心准备的礼物,自然应该感谢。根据句意故选A.
【小题19】考查短语辨析。push aside 把……向旁边推。句意:老人把以前收藏的价值连城的艺术品放到了一边,而把儿子的画像挂到了最显眼的位置。其他各词都能和push搭配,但不符合语境。根据句意故选C.
【小题20】考查名词。A.treasure财富;B.gift 礼物;C.souvenir纪念品;D.package包裹。这里指的就是老人收到的礼物,也就是战士送的画像,所以选gift。根据句意故选B。
