本文記敘了一封電子郵件救了一個(gè)外國姑娘性命的故事。一個(gè)來自美國的14歲少年Dean Bluey在發(fā)電子郵件時(shí)收到一封來自芬蘭的求救電子郵件，開始時(shí)很難判斷是否是真的，但是這條信息總是不斷地發(fā)來，Dean Bluey相信這是真的，并與警方取得了聯(lián)系，最終將處于危急之中的名叫Tarja的女學(xué)生獲救。

【1】句意：來自得克薩斯州達(dá)拉斯市的Dean Bluey是一個(gè)對(duì)電腦很感興趣的男生。interested和interesting是形容詞，much意為“許多，大量的”，修飾不可數(shù)名詞，四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中只有interest“興趣”，不可數(shù)名詞，be interested in對(duì)---感興趣，have interest in對(duì)---感興趣，故選Ｂ。

【2】句意：一天，他正在網(wǎng)上發(fā)電子郵件給一個(gè)朋友。根據(jù)下文Suddenly he received a message saying "Help! Pain! Help!"可知上文描述的是過去正在進(jìn)行的動(dòng)作，所以用過去進(jìn)行時(shí)，其結(jié)構(gòu)為：was/were+動(dòng)詞的現(xiàn)在分詞，主語是he，用was，再加send的現(xiàn)在分詞，故選Ｄ。

【3】句意：這個(gè)信息來自芬蘭，距離美國數(shù)千公里遠(yuǎn)。表示一個(gè)具體的數(shù)目時(shí)，thousand和數(shù)詞連用時(shí)要用單數(shù)形式，如two thousand（二千）；表示大概數(shù)目時(shí)，則用短語thousands of，意為好幾千的，數(shù)千的。kilometers前面沒有具體的數(shù)目，所以用thousands of，故選B。

【4】句意：“我不知道我應(yīng)該做什么，”Dean后來對(duì)記者說道。A. how如何，怎樣；B. where在哪里；C. what什么；D. when什么時(shí)候。句中do后面缺少賓語，所以用what，結(jié)合上下文和語境，故選C。

【5】句意：但是這個(gè)信息不斷地發(fā)過來。A. But但是；B. And并且，和；C. So因此，所以；D.As由于。根據(jù)前一句So Dean did nothing at first.所以開始Dean什么沒做，因?yàn)樗�很難相信這個(gè)信息是真的，又根據(jù)下文the message kept coming，所以可以推斷表示轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，故選A。

【6】句意：他回復(fù)并發(fā)現(xiàn)發(fā)送信息的人是一個(gè)叫Tarja的女學(xué)生，獨(dú)自一人在一所大學(xué)的圖書館里。A. telephoned打電話；B. found發(fā)現(xiàn)；C. replied回復(fù)，答復(fù)；D. talked談?wù)�。根�?jù)后面的discovered（發(fā)現(xiàn)）可知只有回復(fù)才能知道事情的現(xiàn)狀，結(jié)合語境，故選C。

【7】句意：更糟糕的是，在她附近沒有電話。A. better更好；B. harder更努力；C. worse更壞，更糟糕；D. easier更容易。根據(jù)there was no phone around her.可知是更糟糕，故選C。

【8】句意：Dean立刻與警方取得了聯(lián)系。get in touch with...與......取得聯(lián)系，固定搭配，故選B。

【9】句意：幸運(yùn)地是，她仍然還活著并很快被送往醫(yī)院。A. Hardly幾乎不；B. Happily高興地；C. Carefully細(xì)心地，認(rèn)真地; D. Luckily幸運(yùn)地。根據(jù)she was still alive and was sent to hospital quickly.可知是幸運(yùn)地是，故選D。
