21.D由第一句話知“如果你是人,你不得不體會到每件事情好象是錯誤的時候!苯酉聛恚f到你一定也……,從選項分析,seem與feel后可接as if ,但seem as if的主語常是it。因此,答案為D項。
22.C由本句中可以看出,鼓勵性的語言能夠增強你的精神,無論是來自家人,朋友,同事 或……陌生人,應為遞進關系,因此,選擇C項適合。
23.B由上文的 “It is during those “down times” that words of encouragement from family, friends,...”可以猜測出來。
24.A由下文的 “All of the other frogs gathered around the...”可知,一群青蛙正穿過樹林。因此,答案為A項。
25.A由下文的 “...the two ...frogs they would never get out.”可知,掉進坑里的是兩只青蛙。
26.B由下文的 “...them fell into a deep pit (坑).”可知。
27.C由下文的 “...they would never get out.”可知,坑是非常深的,所以其他的青蛙說他們將從不會出來。
28.D因青蛙掉進了深坑,所以是兩支不幸的青蛙。

30.C其他的青蛙讓他們不要跳,與下文的 “...it was in vain.”可知是因果關系,因此,答案為C項。
31.B由上文知,其它的青蛙不讓他們跳,又由 “Finally, one of the frogs followed what the other frogs were saying ...”以及”He fell down...”可知,一只青蛙放棄了。因此,答案為B項。give out分發(fā),用完;give away贈送,泄露,拋棄;give off 發(fā)出,散發(fā)出。
