[文章大意]本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一名旅行者在装有食物和水的背包被沙尘暴吹走后，仅靠一个梨让自己保持希望并走出沙漠的故事。
1. A 根据“Soon I'll be able to walk out of this desert”可知，此处指二十多天以来，旅程一直比较顺利。故选 A。
2. B 句意：但沙漠对旅行者从来都不友好。be friendly to 表示“对……友好”，为固定搭配。故选 B。
3. D 根据“there came a strong sandstorm”及“with the clothes”可知，很强的沙尘暴来临，这名旅行者应该是拿衣服遮盖住头，保护自己。故选 D。
4. A 根据“He shook the clothes and stood up.”可知，此处指大约 10 分钟后，沙尘暴停止了。故选 A。
5. B 整个第二段都在描述沙尘暴来临后的场景，此处指装有食物和水的背包被沙尘暴吹跑了。故选 B。
6. B 结合后文语境和常识可知，没有水和食物，人几乎是不可能走出沙漠的。故选 B。
7. D 前文中提到食物和水都被吹跑了，而这时他发现还有一个梨，所以他是幸运的。故选 D。
8. B 根据“Not too bad, at least I have a pear.”可知，他在给自己鼓气加油，因此是他相信自己能走出去。故选 B。
9. A 根据上文的“hunger, thirst”以及后面提到的“like ghosts”可知，困扰他的是饥饿、口渴和对死亡的恐惧。故选 A。
10. A 句意：然而，每当他几乎失去希望时，他都强迫自己盯着一直保存着的梨看。根据空处的上下文可知，前后句是转折关系，所以用 However。故选 A。
11. B 根据“stare at the pear”可知，此处指盯着一直保存着的梨看。故选 B。
12. A 根据“he was close to losing hope”可知，每当快失去希望的时候，他都要看一看这个梨，所以这个梨是他生存的希望。故选 A。
13. D 根据“he saw a village not far away”可知，一看到村庄在前方，他就欣喜若狂。故选 D。
14. C 根据前文可知，是梨让他有活下去的希望，所以用短语 bring sb back to life 表示“使某人活过来”。故选 C。
15. B 句意：保持希望是胜利的最好武器，所以永远不要告诉自己“什么都没有了”，因为只要你努力寻找，你总能找到一个“梨”把你从困境中拉出来。结合后文和句中的“never”可知，此处指不要告诉自己你一无所有，所以用 nothing。故选 B。
