Story of Regret(悲情罗曼史）

There was this guy who believed very much in true love and decided to take his time to wait for his right girl to appear.He believed that here would definitely be someone special out there for him,but none came.

Every year at Christmas,his ex-girlfriend would return from Vancouver to look him up.He was aware that she still held some hope of rekindling[1] the past romance with him.He did not wish to mislead her in any way.So he would always get one of his girl friends to pose as his steady whenever she came back.

That went on for several years and each year,the guy would get a different girl to pose as his romantic interest.So whenever the ex-girlfriend came to visit him,she would be led into believing that it was all over between her and the guy.

The girl took all those rather well,often trying to casually tease[2] him about his different girl friends,or so,as it seemed!In fact,the girl often wept in secret whenever she saw him with another girl,but she was too pround to admit it.Still,every Christmas,she returned,hoping to rekindle some form of romance.But each time,she returned to Vancouver feeling disappointed.

Finally she decided that she could not play that game any longer.Therefore,she confronted him and professed[3] that after all those years,he was still the only man that she has ever loved.Although the guy knew of her feelings for him,he was still taken aback and had never expected her to react that way.He always thought that she would slowly forget about him over time and come to terms that it was all over between them.Although he was touched by her undying love for him and wanted so much to accept her again,he remembered why he rejected her in the first place---she was not the one he wanted.So he hardened his heart and turned her down cruelly.Since then,three years had passed and the girl never returned anymore.They never even wrote to each other.The guy went on with his life... still searching for the one but somehow deep inside him he missed the girl.

On the Christmas of 1995,he went to his friend's party alone."Hey,how come all alone this year?Where are all your girl friends?What happened to that Vancouver babe who joins you every Christmas?"asked one of his friends.He felt warm and comforted by his friend's queries[4] about her,still he just surged[5] on.

Then,he came upon one of his many girl friends whom he once requested to pose as his steady.He wanted so much to ignore her...not that he was impolite,but because at that moment,he just didn't feel comfortable with those girl friends anymore.It was alomst like he was being judged by them.The girl saw him and shouted across the floor for him.Unable to avoid her,he went up to acknowledge her.

"Hi...how are you?Enjoying the party?" the girl asked.

"Sure...yeah!" he replied.

She was slightly tipsy[6]... must be from the whiskey on her hand.She continued,"why...?Don't you need someone to pose as your girlfriend this year?" Then he answered,"No,there is no need for that anymore..."

Before he could continue,he was interrupted,"oh yes!Must have found a girlfriend!You haven't been searching for one for the past years,right?" The man looked up,as if he has struck gold,his face beamed and looked directly at the drunken girl.He replied,"Yes...you are right!I haven't been looking for anyone for the past years."

With that,the man darted[7] across the floor and out the door,leaving the lady in much bewilderment[8].He finally realized that he had already found his dream girl,and she was...the Vancouver girl all along!The drunken lady has said something that awoken him.

All along he had found his girl.That was why he did not bother to look further when he realized she was not coming back.It was not any special girl he was seeking！It was perfection that he wanted,and yes...perfection!

Realizing that he had let away someone so important in his life,he decided to call her immediately.His whole mind was flooded with fear.He was afraid that she might have found someone new or no longer had the same feelings anymore...For once,he felt the fear of losing someone.

As it was Christmas eve,the line was quite hard to get through,especially an overseas call.He tried again and again,never giving up.Finally,he got through...precisely at 12:00 midnight.He confessed his love for her and the girl was moved to tears.It seemed that she never got over him!Even after so long,she was still waiting for him,never giving up.

He was so excited to meet her and to begin his new chapter of their lives.He decided to fly to Vancouver to join her.It was the happiest time of their lives!But their happy time was short-lived.Two days before he was supposed to fly to Vancouver,he received a call from her father.She had a head-on[9] car collision[10] with a drunk driver.She passed away after 6 hours in a coma[11].

The guy was devastated[12],as it was a complete loss.Why did fate play such cruel games with him?He curses the heaven for taking her away from him,denying even one last look at her!How cruel he cursed!How he hated himself...for taking so long to realize his mistake!!That was in 1996.

你的要求好复杂哦~~这个是我在《英语广场》-《魅力英文》上找的一篇文章，字数差不多700多吧。

每个字都是我辛辛苦苦打的。。~~~生词也都加了标注，只是我不知道音标怎么弄，所以没有标注。

希望能帮上忙~~

一、细节题定位句正向解题

简单上手好操作：简单的细节题，就是大家能够用题干关键词定位，定位处解题。但是定位句也有不同的难度区分。定位句简单，直接匹配出答案;定位句复杂，主干优先来解题;少部分需要理解句子，按照意思来解题。

如下例题：

(2016年text4)From career to community and family, these contrasts suggest that in the aftermath of the searing Great Recession, those just starting out in life are defining priorities and expectations that will increasingly spread through virtually all aspects of American life, from consumer preferences to housing patterns to politics.

38. The priorities and expectations defined by the young will ____.

[A] become increasingly clear

[B] focus on materialistic issues

[C] depend largely on political preferences

[D] reach almost all aspects of American life

解析：本题为细节题。利用题干关键词定位可使用替代性比较低的短语priorities and expectations定位长难句中划线部分直接匹配出答案选择D。

二、细节题定位句只能排除

难度稍稍有上升：稍有难度细节题，题干关键词来定位，定位句处只能排除选项。很多同学定位到答案句，大致浏览进行匹配无法定位就会慌了。但是大家记得，有时细节题定位句确实无正解，但是有时幸运的是也能帮我们排除一些选项。排除时，或是通过相关内容搭配，或是通过感情基调或是通过句意。

如下例题：

No one tries harder than the jobless to find silver linings in this national economic disaster. Many said that unemployment, while extremely painful, had improved them in some ways; they had become less materialistic and more financially prudent; they were more aware of the struggles of others. In limited respects, perhaps the recession will leave society better off. At the very least, it has awoken us from our national fever dream of easy riches and bigger houses, and put a necessary end to an era of reckless personal spending.

37. According to Paragraph 2, the recession has made people_____.

[A]realize the national dream

[B]struggle against each other

[C]challenge their lifestyle

[D]reconsider their lifestyle

解析：本题为细节题。利用题干关键词定位划线句子，看到关键短语better off，感情基调积极向上，可以排除BC。A通过选项national dream定位最后一句话排除，原文是it has awoken us from our national fever dream，选项是realize。D为正确选项，来源于文章中最后一句At the very least, it has awoken us from our national fever dream of easy riches and bigger houses, and put a necessary end to an era of reckless personal spending.

三、细节题无法定位答案句

大家最怕的应该是细节题找不到答案句，这种细节题确实会有些难，但是也不是100%的难。如果还没有定位到答案句的时候，大家要记得我们可以从选项反向排除。选项排除的细节题，可以从简单的选项入手，即好定位的选项，反向敲定答案。

四、细节题干扰项明显特征

如果遇到难的细节题需要选项反向排除，我们要善于总结细节题错误选项特征。帮我们快速排除，总结好的错误特征如下，赶紧记在小本本上：

非定位处，其他位置细节词

东拼西凑，信息杂糅

张冠李戴，搭配不当

无中生有，胡编乱造
