【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，作者将钱包落在了公共汽车上，Erin捡到了作者的
钱包，在寒冷的黑夜亲自登门归还钱包。作者深受感动。
（1）考查形容词。A：accessible“可以获得的，可以进入的”；B：hidden“隐藏的”；C：unknown“未知的，不知道的”；D：convenient “方便的，便利的”。根据上文“fear seized me. My wallet was gone.”可知，作者将钱包落在了公共汽车上，而汽车正在开往某个作者未知的地方，这使得找回钱包的希望渺茫，因此作者心生恐惧。故选C。
（2）考查形容词。A：face-saving“保全体面的；顾全面子的”；B：brain-washing“洗脑的”；C：eye-catching“引人注目的，耀眼的”；D：heart-stopping “令人心跳停止的，惊心动魄的”。根据上文“fear seized me”可以推知，作者在发现丢了钱包之后的第一感觉是“害怕”。之后，作者开始在内心计算找回钱包里的那些东西所需要的时间和钱数。故该空应和fear表达的意思相近，故选D。
（3）考查名词。A：parts“部分，角色，作用，零件”；B：contents“内容，内含物”；C：details“细节”；D：ingredients“原料，要素，组成部分” 。根据下文“the credit cards，the driver's license, the cash”，这些都是钱包里装的东西。故选B。
（4）考查动词。A：ignored“忽视”；B：answered“回答，答复，回应”；C：examined“检查”；D：interrupted “打断”。两小时后有人敲门，丈夫去应门。故选B。
（5）考查动词。A：missing“丢失，迷失”；B：returned“归还”；C：remaining“保留”；D：abandoned“遗弃”。根据下文可知，那位女士捡到了作者的钱包，她拾金不昧，将钱包完璧归赵。由此可以推知，该处指“钱包里的钱一分也没有丢失”。故选A。
（6）考查副词。A：still“一直，仍然”；B：ever“曾经”；C：yet“但是”；D：even“甚至”。作者甚至还没有来得及到门口感谢那位女士，她就离开了。故选D。
（7）考查动词。A：selected“精选，挑选”；B：appointed“委派，任命”；C：identified“确认，认出，识别”；D：defined“下定义”。在网上分享了这个故事之后，作者收到了某个人的来信，这个人确认了那位女士是Erin Smith。故选C。
（8）考查名词。A：delay“延误，耽搁”；B；alarm“警报”；C：regret“后悔，遗憾”；D：i nvitation“邀请”。找到了那位拾金不昧的女士，作者当然要毫不耽搁地打电话去感谢对方。故选A。
（9）考查动词。A：moved“移动”；B：placed“放置”；C：opened“打开”；D：spotted “发现，认出”。作者将钱包落在了公共汽车上，Erin是在一个座位上发现了它。故选D。（10）考查动词。A：disagreed“不同意”；B：complained“抱怨”；C：calculated“估算，估计，预料”；D：recommended“推荐”。根据下文的“a bitterly cold night”可知，这件事发生在一个寒冷的晚上。同时，Erin又不认识作者。由此推知，该句应指：Erin估计去一个陌生人的家是一个冒险的举动。故选C。
（11）考查形容词。A：selfless“无私的”；B：risky“冒险的”；C：slow“缓慢的”；D：personal“个人的”。根据下文中的转折词but可知，该句和“she decided to take the chance”她决定冒险，是转折关系。那么该句应指去一个陌生人家是一个冒险的举动。故选B。（12）考查名词。A：site“地点，位置”；B：direction“方向，指导”；C：situation“形势，情况”；D：atmosphere “气氛，氛围”。该句叙述的是Erin当时的想法：“如果我处在那种情况下（指丢了钱包这种情形），我希望有个人努力地找到我”。故选C。
（13）考查名词。A：crisis“危机”；B：danger“危险”；C：threat“威胁”；D：failure “失
败”。作者丢了钱包，对于作者来说，这是一个危难时刻。故选A。
（14）考查动词短语。A：got rid of“除掉”；B：made use of“利用”；C：had control of“控制”；D：took possession of “拥有，占有”。Erin捡到了作者的钱包，在归还作者之前，钱包在Erin的手里，故选D。
（15）考查宾语从句。Erin把作者的驾照图片发到一个论坛里，想看看是否有人认识作者。该空表示“是否”，故选A。
（16）考查动词。A：recalled“回忆”；B：exchanged“交流”；C：repeated“重复”；D：whispered “低语”。根据后面的转折词but可知，该句和下文“but they wanted to help.”是转折关系，由此推知，该句指：除了闲聊，作者和那两位妈妈从来没有说过话，即：从未和她们交换过词语。故选B。
（17）考查动词。A：encounter“偶遇，遇到，邂逅”；B：follow“跟随，遵循”；C：consult“咨询”；D：accompany “陪伴”。作者曾经读到这样的说法：人们比以往更加四分五裂，即：人们不像以前那样团结，不像以前那样互相帮助了。但是，作者遇到的这些人的行为方式不是那样的。上文中提到的Erin，two moms都是作者遇到的人。故选A。
（18）考查动词短语。A：Going away“走开”；B：Turning around“转身”；C：Looking back“回顾，追忆”；D：Coming along“一起前往”。回顾发生的这件事，作者感到很幸运：有人想帮助一个陌生人。故选C。
（19）考查介词。根据倒数第二段中的“people are more divided”可以推知，一般人在捡到别人的钱包后，都不会像Erin那样亲自归还失主。因此该句指：Erin的所作所为远远超越了其他人的行为。该空表示“超过，超越”，故选D。
（20）考查形容词。A：longing“渴望的”；B：enthusiastic“热情的”；C：concerned“关心的”；D：grateful “感激的”。Erin在寒冷的黑夜亲自登门归还作者的钱包，作者对此非常感激。故选D。
