Not discouraged easily, I remembered 4 a lamp by the bed when I deposited my luggage earlier in the day. I found the bed in the 5 and then the lamp, but when I switched it on, nothing 6 !

这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。作者通过自己晚上在黑暗中找灯这件小事，想到世上人人都可能处于“黑暗”之中，如果我们都能用自己的“爱心”之灯去温暖他人，世界将变的更加美好。
1．D. 根据上文晚上头顶的灯坏了，可知我找寻钥匙孔有困难，故选D. difficult。
2．A. 根据下文可知，“我”已经把门打开。Manage to do sth. 表成功地做某事。
3．B. 根据文意可知，由于晚上没有灯，“我”只好摸索前进，只有felt表此意。
4．C. 上文提到这是一个旅馆，自己是暂时住到这里，排除了A项。从下文一句when I deposited my luggage可推知C项正确，注意spot此处意为“注意到，看到，发现”。
5．B. 因为是晚上，所以选择dark。
6．A. 根据文意排除了C、D。句子的主语是nothing而非lamp，故动词operated不正确。因此，只有A项正确。
7．B. 根据文意和下文curtains可推知，“我”现在处在黑暗中，只能拉开窗帘，靠外部街道上的光来找到另一盏灯，故选B。
8．C. 根据文意和下文slowly across the room可知，“我”现在摸索着去拉窗帘。Make one’s way意为“前往，到……去”，符合文意。
9．C. 根据主语a desk lamp和副词actually可知，这盏灯亮了。此意只有work可以表达。
10．D. 根据文意和下句the light that shines from people可知，人们“内心的灯光”比实际的灯光更有必要。Physical在此意为“物质的，有形的”。
11．B. 由文意可知，我们心中应该有“爱和信任”之灯，才能战胜discouragement、sadness、fear，故选love。
12．A. 由文意和dark可知，有时我们中许多人会处在黑暗和孤独的世界，故选lonely。
13．B. 由上文So let your light shine.可知，作者在鼓励我们要主动去帮助别人，故选B。
14．C. 细心揣摩文意可知，我们的爱心之灯在茫茫的黑暗中是如此渺小，好象是森林中的一只蜡烛，故选no more than正确。
15．A. 由文意可知，黑暗再强大，也没有足够的力量扑灭小如蜡烛的“爱心之灯”，故选A项put out最佳。
