搜到原文，40 A）journey B）dream C）accident D）opportunityA为旅途，旅行，B为梦想，C为事故，事件，D为机会。根据句意，只能选opportunity。上文说一对夫妻在山区旅行时，妻子说总是感到害怕，丈夫就建议闭上眼睛。接下来语气一转，说这时候最好的方式是睁开眼睛拥抱恐惧。然后举例，说David Smith有了这次机会来验证证明“睁开眼睛拥抱恐惧”的可行性。望采纳。这是搜到的英语原文，老外就是这么用的，国内的老师只不过把填空给挖去，呵呵。In 1972 David Smith had such an opportunity.Smith,an adventurer,author & professional speaker,decided to spend a night alone in St.Michael's Cave on the island of Gibraltar as a test of courage. In his book `Hug The Monster' (Kansas City: Andrews and McMeel, 1996),he tells of hearing strange sounds all around him as he lay there in the pitch-black,damp,deserted cave.Most frightening was the fact that he came to believe he was not alone!Fear became panic,he was afraid he was losing his mind.Then suddenly, as he was approaching his psychological breaking point,Smith thought to himself,Whatever the monster looks like,I will hug it.That simple,almost silly thought brought great relief to hisrestless mind.He soon fell into a deep,peaceful sleep until morning.He learned that embracing his fear,literally or figuratively, allowed him to subdue it.We each have our nights of fear.We each encounter monsters of some sort.We may fear spiders or insects,heights or crowds,abandonment or loneliness,the future or death.And most of us are occasionally visited by shadows of these monsters in the dark of night.The next time you're afraid,try "hugging the monster."Face that fear head-on,whatever it is & embrace it.You may be surprised at howquickly it slips away & at how confident you begin to feel.I remember what Eleanor Roosevelt said,"You gain strength,courage &confidence by every experience in which you stop to look fear in the face"
