5、unt，my cousin，a lady，herhusband，her son，故选D正确。 26.D判断推理。文章中提到my uncle经常去教堂做礼拜活动，但这并不是他一生的最爱，从文 章的后面可以看出，他最渴望的还是爱情，故A不正确。My cousin住在美国南部的Texas， 离my uncle很远，故B不正确。文章并没有提到my uncle婚礼的具体日期，只能判断他在 这天为那位lady购买了结婚戒指，故C不正确。文中提到my uncle和the lady有意见分歧 是因为他们舍不得离开各自的教堂所以D正确。 27.A推理判

6、断题。由文章的第一段中My aunt died back in about 2003. She was eighty - four andso was my uncle. When she passed he felt miserable. They had been named for over 60 years的 描述，可知答案A正确。 My aunt died back in about 2003. She was eighty-four and so

9、and church family to comfort him.我伯母大约在2003年去世。她已是84岁高龄,我伯父与她同龄。伯母的去世对伯父来说是个沉重的打击。他们结婚超过 60年了。伯母去世后,我们以为伯父很快也会跟着离开。伯父愈加频繁地去教会,他的悲恸几乎令人不忍目睹。他唯一的女儿一直住在离他很远的另一个地方,因而他只能从家族的远亲以及教会同伴那里寻求慰藉。My cousin talked him into selling the house that

10、60;he and my aunt had built together abouttwenty five years before. It was very hard to part with the home they built together. He wasgoing to move into an

13、60;was in thenursing home. He was like a kid with a new toy but still grieved horribly for my aunt.我堂姐游说伯父卖掉那栋他和伯母大概在25年前一起建造的房子。要离开他俩一起建造的 “家”,这对伯父而言非常艰难。他准备搬进一间公寓,不过就在最后一刻,我堂姐和他看中了一栋待售的新房,而且这房子离伯父的公司很近。堂

14、姐帮伯父买来了家具和一台平板电视机。由于他的宗教信仰,伯父已经很多年没有看电视了。他如同一个拿到一件新玩具的孩子那样开心,不过对于伯母的离去,他还是非常伤心。One day he called my cousin who was living in Texas and told her that he reconnected with alady from a church t

15、hat he and my aunt went to forty years previously. She played piano andhis church was looking for new music. Her husband had died about seven years previously.

17、h almost eighty-seven years old.有一天,伯父打电话给我那住在得克萨斯州的堂姐,告诉她说他和一位女士重新取得了联系,而那位女士来自他和伯母40多年前常去的一间教堂。那位女士会弹钢琴,而伯父所在的教会正要找新的音乐伴奏。那位女士的丈夫大约七年前去世了。伯父说,他只是想有个人一起出去吃饭,一起消磨时光。我们很为他们俩高兴,却不知道结果会如何。他们俩都将近87岁高龄。hey were like love-birds and spent as much 

18、time together as they could. They both had onechild each, she a son, he a daughter.They had the same birthday although her son was a coupleof years older. She&#

19、160;had a housethat her father built for her when she got married to her firsthusband. She was content there. 他们俩如同一对恩爱夫妻一般,尽可能多地在一起共度时光。他们各自都有一个孩子,她有个儿子,而他有个女儿。她有栋房子,是她父亲在她和第一任丈夫结婚时为她建的。她在里面住得很满意。The

23、was a Pentacostal. They decided to remain friends but nothing more. He was brokenhearted, but felt that his religion was the only way. She didn't want to leave&#

28、钻戒时,那些店员们都非常感动,写了一大篇文章发表在我们当地的报纸上,标题为“情人节真谛”。他们为婚礼做着准备。由于他们俩都迫不及待地想要“在一起”,而不结婚就不是严格意义上的“在一起”,所以他们把婚期提前了。They got married in her house, where they decided they would live. Her son and daughter-in-law stood up wi

32、他仍然沉浸在爱河中,而且他们彼此深爱着对方。If you ever think that it is too late for you to find true love or your life is over, you should seemore relationships like theirs. They are
