One spring afternoon five years ago, Jimmy Liao was crying in the hall of Taipei’s Sherwood Hotel. Life seemed ___21___.

Seeking more personally satisfying ___25___, he had just left a successful job as a commercial artist when it seemed that fate（命運(yùn)）played a cruel ___26__ on him.

He began to ___28____ the fact that there is no such a thing as fate, only __29___. Since then, he has published several imaginative, illustrated（帶插圖的）books.

According to Jimmy, you are what you choose to be. You can give up or you can work to be a happier person. Jimmy realized that, while the world sometimes seems unfair, your choice can change your life.

This idea can be __30___ in Jimmy’s books, where his characters show the powerlessness they feel before making their choices. The message that goes with Jimmy’s drawings, however, is ___31___.

【解析】1.根據(jù)上一句話可知，Jimmy Liao這位著名的畫(huà)家哭泣的原因是他得了癌癥，生命似乎對(duì)他不公平。

2.此處是拿平常人對(duì)待健康的態(tài)度與 Jimmy Liao現(xiàn)在的情況形成對(duì)比。take …for granted認(rèn)為……是理所當(dāng)然的。

3.根據(jù)后面的一句解釋可知答案

4.下文提到 Jimmy Liao 為一畫(huà)家，畫(huà)家只能通過(guò)的自己繪畫(huà)來(lái)表達(dá)自己的思想

5.work著作，作品

6.play a trick on somebody捉弄， 戲弄某人。

7.根據(jù)句意可知，Jimmy Liao 這時(shí)得了癌癥，不能繼續(xù)工作。

8.本句為一個(gè)同位語(yǔ)從句，結(jié)合前面一句可知，Jimmy得了癌癥，但他在賓館里哭泣的那一刻也明白了人生并沒(méi)有命運(yùn)，而是看你如何做出選擇。空格上如果填face或refuse，fact引導(dǎo)的同位語(yǔ)從句應(yīng)改為他得病這個(gè)事實(shí)。

9.下文提到雖然生命對(duì)你不公，但你的選擇可以改變你的生活。因此，人生沒(méi)有命運(yùn)，只看你如何選擇。

10.根據(jù)Jimmy在書(shū)中所表達(dá)的觀點(diǎn)可知他的這種看法可以在他的書(shū)中找到。

11.Jimmy對(duì)待癌癥，選擇了繼續(xù)工作來(lái)充實(shí)自己。因此，他對(duì)生命充滿(mǎn)了希望，這一點(diǎn)在他的繪畫(huà)中也可表現(xiàn)出來(lái)。

12.盡管世界讓我們感到自己很渺小，但我們也應(yīng)該勇敢，堅(jiān)強(qiáng)。Jimmy在面對(duì)疾病時(shí)所表現(xiàn)出的正是這個(gè)特征。great偉大的；strong 強(qiáng)壯的；equal平等的。

13.上文提到在面對(duì)疾病時(shí)，可以放棄也可以繼續(xù)工作，關(guān)鍵看你選擇什么。本句是回答這個(gè)問(wèn)題：只要你做出正確的選擇，生命就會(huì)充滿(mǎn)希望。

14.Jimmy 原本是一名成功的畫(huà)家，得病之后又繼續(xù)工作，又贏得了新的名譽(yù)和財(cái)富。

15.根據(jù)Jimmy所患疾病可排除A項(xiàng)，slowly 只強(qiáng)調(diào)動(dòng)作，不符語(yǔ)意；separately與下文with his wife and daughter矛盾。
