A number of years ago I sat down on a stone bench outside
the Teatro Avenida in Maputo, Mozambique, when I worked as an【M1】______
artistic consulter. It was a hot day, and we were taking a break【M2】______
from rehearsals. The theater’s air-conditioning system had long
since stopped functioning. It should have been over 100 degrees【M3】______
inside while we were working.
Two old African men were sitting on that bench, but there
was a room for me, too. In Africa people share more than just【M4】______
water in a brotherly or sisterly fashion. Even when it comes to
shade, people are generous. I heard two men talking about a third【M5】______
old man who recently died. One of them said, "I was visiting him【M6】______
at his home. He started to tell me an amazing story about
something that had happened to him when he was young. But it
was a long story. Night came, and we decided that I should come
back the next day to hear the rest. But when I arrived, he was dead."
The man fell silent. I decided to leave that bench until I【M7】______
heard what the other man would respond to what he’d heard. I had【M8】______
an instinctive feeling that it would prove to be important. Finally
he, too, spoke. "That’s not a good way to die—after you’ve told【M9】______
the end of your story."
It struck me as I listened to those two men that our species
might be the storytelling person. What differs us from animals is【M10】______
the fact that we can listen to other people’s dreams, fears, joys,
sorrows, desires and defeats—and they in turn can listen to ours. [br] 【M7】
选项
答案
∧to一not
解析
词汇错误。这句话的意思是“我决定等到另外一位老人对他所听到的故事作出反应后再离开”,句中应该用“not…until…”表示“直到……才……”,故应加上not,否则语义前后矛盾。
