【答案】LA2.C3.A4.D5.A6.B7.C8,D9.C10.B

【解析】

【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者的一次登塔经历。出于对一位盲人的关心和好奇，作者跟

随一位盲人登塔，盲人告诉作者在登塔的过程中，他感受到了光和阴的不同，也用事实告诉作者，尽管盲

人看不到世界上的风景，但也能感受到生活里的美。

【I题详解】

考查形容词词义辨析。句意：在那里，我惊讶地看到服务员把票卖给他，好像他是其他访客一样。A.

surprised惊讶的；B.disappointed失望的；C.frightened害怕的D.embarrassed尴尬的。根据前文“ablind

mancametowardme（一个盲人向我走来）”可知，作者知道这是一个盲人，所以当售票员卖票给他时，作者

感到很惊讶。故选A项。

【2题详解】

考查名词词义辨析。句意：“那个人是盲人。一个盲人爬上塔干什么？”我对服务员说，希望他表现出一

些关心，但他没有回答。A.respect尊重；尊敬；B.doubt怀疑；C.concern关注；担忧;D.sympathy同

情。分析前文作者说的话“Thatmanisblind.Whatwouldablindmanclimbupthetowerfoi*?（那个人是个盲

人。一个盲人为什么要爬上塔呢?）"可推知，作者是在提醒工作人员，这是一位盲人，希望工作人员能够

关注一下。故选C项。【3题详解】
