1、We all believe that modern technology can make life better because it makes everything faster. But by _11() everything up, we suffer losses we have not yet learnt to know. Our day begins with speedy urges: the alarm rings and you jump _12()bed. You take a quick shower. Then you wake the kids and <13()them through breakfast so they won't miss the bus. At the dining table, you swallow some slices of bread with a cup of tea. When everything()14(),you hurry to the car, thinking of the things you would buy from the supermarket on the way15(). Driving 20 minutes in the busy traffic,you reach your workplace, rushing into the building and _16() up the stairs three at a time, arriving at your desk with seconds to spare. You take_17()deep breaths. Then, you instantly remember that the ()18()you didn't finish last night must be faxed to Beijing by l0'clock in the morning. Yet it seems that the _19() we go, the further we fall behind. Not only in the literal sense of not getting done what we set out to do, _20()_ at a deeper level. It has come to the point where my days feel like an Olympic marathon.14.( )
A
is done
B

C
works
D
is gone
答案解析
正确答案:A
解析:
这是一道语境理解与动词辨析题。
首先,理解题目语境:文中描述了一个人忙碌的早晨生活,从起床、洗漱、叫孩子起床、吃早餐到匆忙去上班的一系列动作。
接下来,分析每个选项:
- A选项(is done):表示“完成”。根据语境,“When everything is done”意味着当所有早晨的准备活动都完成后,主人公才会匆忙去开车。这与文中描述的匆忙早晨生活相符。
- B选项(begins):表示“开始”。但文中强调的是所有事情完成后的匆忙,而非事情刚开始时的状态,所以B选项不符合语境。
- C选项(works):表示“工作”或“运转”。此选项与文中描述的早晨准备活动不直接相关,故排除。
- D选项(is gone):表示“过去”或“消失”。文中并未提及任何与“过去”或“消失”相关的语境,所以D选项也不符合。
综上所述,A选项(is done)最符合文中的语境和描述,表示当所有早晨的准备活动都“完成”后,主人公才会匆忙去开车。因此,正确答案是A。
