【语篇解读】作者在大学一年级期间因熬夜而在上课时打瞌睡，被年轻的教授用独特的方式惊醒。教授的博学、睿智、幽默和激情深深地感染了作者，也让作者慨叹人生的短暂，不可以在人生中梦游。21.下一句提到作者的眼皮越来越沉，由此可知作者在晚上的大部分时间都是在“熬夜”与朋友嬉笑、交谈。stayup表示“熬夜”。22.作者由于晚上熬夜，在第二天的第一节“课”前就打瞌睡。23.作者难以睁开双眼，头不由自主地垂到了课桌上，把教材当成了“枕头”。24.作者认为在上课前小睡几分钟不会“产生不良影响”。此处hurt意思是“产生不良影响，有坏处”。25.根据语境可知，作者正在小睡，突然被一种声音惊醒，“心跳”加速，所以环顾四周，想搞清楚是怎么回事儿。26.根据本段开头提到的响声可知作者想找到“噪音”的起因。27.上一句提到这位年轻的教授正面带孩子般的微笑看着作者，由此可知他是“故意”把携带的教科书扔到讲桌上的。intentionally“故意地”。28.他仍然“微笑”着问候学生。此处与上文的“...withaboyishsmile...”相呼应。29.上文提到作者在昏睡中被教授故意制造的噪音惊醒，由此可知此处表示教授看到每个人都“清醒”后感到非常高兴，然后开始上课。30.句意：在随后的一个小时里，作者不再困倦，但这并不是因为教授的教科书把作者“惊”醒了的缘故。此处shock是名词，表示“震惊”。31.下文提到他知识渊博，富有幽默感，由此可知他引入的讨论非常“吸引人”。fascinating“吸引人的”。32.句意：他不但知识渊博，而且还很幽默。33.句意：他用渊博的知识和幽默让材料“生动”起来。comealive意为“变得有趣，生动起来”。A项表示“奇怪的”；B项表示“自然的”；C项表示“方便的”，均不符合语境。34.句意：他富有热情和愉快的“授课”方式很有感染力。thathetaughtwith是定语从句，修饰先行词theenthusiasmandjoy。35.句意：在这一个小时中，作者完全沉浸在教授的课堂中，所以“离开”教室时无比清醒。36.句意：受到博学多才的教授的感染，作者离开教室时不但非常清醒，而且“聪明”了一些，并且感觉好多了。37.上文提到作者在上课前睡着了，后来被教授以独特的方式惊醒，而且深受感染，由此可知作者学到的东西远比在课堂上不要“睡觉”重要得多。38.教授用热情和快乐感染了学生，所以作者感悟到的是“快乐地”把想要做的事情做好。下一句中的joyously也是线索提示。39.结合本段第二句中的“...goingtodosomethinginthislife...”以及本段最后一句可知作者所要强调的是不要在“人生”中梦游。40.此处作者感叹人生“短暂”。其余选项都不符合语境。

22．C

23．D试题解析：文章讲述了今年的世界粮食大奖奖给了DavidBeckmann和JoLuck。这是第一次奖给了非政府组织人员，以前的该奖均是颁给了研究人员和政府人员，同时也介绍了这两个人获得这份荣誉的原因，即两人在帮助人们战胜饥饿，摆脱困难方面所取得的成绩。21．由Thisyear’sWorldFoodPrizewillhonortwoleadersofhunger-fightinggroupsbasedintheUnitedStates可知今年的世界粮食大奖授与了美国两个反饥饿组织的领导人。由此可知这个奖项是授予反饥饿人士的。，答案应为A。22．由HeiferInternationalprovidesdonatedanimalsandtrainingtofarmersin50countries．可知海菲国际公司向农民捐助了动物并对农民进行了培训，而JoLuck是该组织的领导人。所以答案应为C。23．结合Thepurposeistosupportmeasurestoimprovethelivesofthepoor及DavidBeckmannbecamepresidentofBreadfortheWorldin1991．HeisaneconomistandaChristianclergyman两句可知，DavidBeckmann作为该组织的领导人，他们的目的在于支持一定的措施去改善穷人的生活，故答案应为D。19.
