36.D 由上文代表“草、树、叶”推测可知:没有我,其它的动物就会死亡。
37.A 由下文的“天空和海洋”相对比,结合上文所谈及的“草、树、叶”可知,此处指“陆地”。
38.C 此处是强调句型,只能用it is。
39.B 此处与第一段的最后一句有异曲同工的作用,意为:没有我的润滑,你们全都没有(即:死亡)。
40.A 此处所填单词,应与前面的laughter, fun是同类型的词,表示积极向上的词,而sadness,depression,anxiety则表示“消极”之意。
41.D 桔黄色在平时不多见,结合下文只有在太阳升起或落下时出现,因此用scarce表示“稀少,不常见”。
42.C 由常识可知,只有在太阳升起或落下时出现桔黄色。
43.C 此上文“我的美丽如此迷人”推断下文“当我出现时,没有人会想起你们的”。give thought to想起,注意。
44.D 由下文shouted out可知,红色再也忍不住了,no longer表示“不再”。
45.B 由上文bravery可知,此处意义为:我愿意为真理而斗争。fight for“为……而战”。
46.A 由上文各种颜色的讲话内容及此句中的boasting(夸耀)可知,它们都在吹嘘自己的优点或优势(superiority)。
47.C 由谓语动词“倾盆而下(pour down)”可知,副词用violently,来表示“猛烈、激烈”。
48.B 由谓语“蜷缩(crouched down)”及下文“互相缩成一团”可知:它们处于“恐惧之中”。
49.A amongst常用于书面语中,其意义等于among。
50.D 句中的动词dominate是“优于,超出”,根据上文的内容,他们极力说自己的优点,想超出对方,因此用the rest,来表示除自己之处的所有的其它颜色。
51.D 由for a special purpose可知,各种颜色都有自己的特殊的用途,它们所具有的特点都是其它颜色没有的,因此用unique and different来表示“独特的和与众不同的”。
52.C 此处表示三者以上的“互相”,用one another。意为:大家手拉手。
53.C 由下文joined hands可知,它们“团结一心”。
54.B 此处是拟人说法,wash有“冲洗”之意。意为:一场大雨之后。
55.A 它们互相合作,形成了美丽的彩虹,如果没有大家的配合,是不可能形成彩虹的。因此这种美丽是大家协作的结晶,所以它们都“感激,感谢”对方的参与。
