答案解析
正确答案:A
解析:
这是一道完形填空题,我们需要结合上下文语境来分析第10空的正确答案。
**解析过程:**
1. **分析语境**:
* 这段文字讲述的是 Albert 的故事。他住在养老院(old people’s home),原本觉得自己太老了(too old),不再期待遇到特别的人或寻找爱情(wasn't looking for love只是需要一个朋友)。
* 他在花园看报纸时遇到了 Joyce,两人相谈甚欢,关系变得非常亲密(became very close/good friends),现在做所有事情都在一起。
* 最后一句是 Albert 的感慨:“I have one regret – that I didn’t ____10____ Joyce years ago!”(我有一个遗憾——那就是我没有在多年前就____ Joyce!)
2. **辨析选项**:
* **A. meet (遇见)**:Albert 后悔没有早点“遇见” Joyce。这符合逻辑,因为如果早点遇见,他们就能更早地享受彼此的陪伴,弥补多年的孤独。这是老年人交友故事中常见的感叹,强调缘分的迟到。
* **B. love (爱)**:语法上 "didn't love Joyce" 表示过去不爱她,但这与文中描述的他们现在关系很好、形影不离不符,且通常人们不会后悔“没有爱某人”,而是后悔“没有表达爱”或“没有早点相遇”。此外,前文提到他起初并没寻找爱情,重点在于友谊和陪伴的开始。
* **C. marry (结婚)**:虽然他们关系很好,但文中明确提到 Albert 住在养老院,且起初只是想找个朋友(needed a friend)。对于两位老年人来说,最大的遗憾通常是没能早点相识相知,而不是 specifically 后悔没结婚。相比之下,“meet”涵盖了建立关系的起点,更为贴切和自然。
3. **结论**:
Albert 遗憾的是没有在更早的时候**遇见** Joyce,这样他们就可以更长时间地在一起。因此,动词 **meet** 最符合语境。
**正确答案:A**
