I sighed loudly, __2__ there was no one to hear. Lately my life seemed __3__ more than a neverending __4__ of regular tasks. Surely there was more to living than this. I guess I was simply too tired to look for it.
And then, looking __5__, I saw him.
The lone (孤零零) flagman was standing __6__ the street, __7__ directing four driving ways of traffic as they __8__ into one. But there was something __9__ about this flagman, and as my car __10__, I realized what it was.
Standing among dozens of impatient motorists, he was smiling and __11__ at every driver that passed.
As I sat waiting my __12__ in my warm car, I began to feel __13__. If this man, who did nothing all day but watch one car after another __14__, could stand in the cold rain hour after boring hour and still have a friendly __15__ for every single person who passed, what right did I have to __16__ my life?

语篇解读:本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。在一个下雨天。作者因交通堵塞而心烦气躁,开始抱怨生活的一成不变。在等着通过十字路口时,一位在雨中一直面带微笑、耐心指挥交通的交警让作者明白了一个道理--生活快乐与否是由自己的心态决定的。
1.A.dangerous B.enjoyable
C.horrible D.interesting
解析:选C 根据上一句"Nothing had gone right all day."可知,作者这一天过得都不顺利,故此处应该指糟糕的一天。故选C项,意为"极坏的,糟糕的,令人讨厌的",符合句意。A项意为"危险的";B项意为"愉快的";D项意为"有趣的",都不符合句意。
