【分析】
这是一篇寓言主题的完形填空题,解题时首先通读全文理清故事脉络:孔雀原本为自己美丽的外形骄傲,却嫌弃自己沙哑的声音,在羡慕夜莺的动听嗓音时得到仙女的开导,最终明白每个生命都有独属于自己的闪光点。接下来逐空结合上下文语境、词汇搭配、语法规则逐一推导:遇到和主语指代相关的空要判断人称选对应反身代词,和感官相关的空要匹配对应的感官动词,遇到修饰成分的空要区分such和so的用法,遇到连词要判断前后句逻辑关系,遇到短语辨析要代入语义排除不符合语境的选项,所有选项选完后代入全文通读验证逻辑通顺即可。
【解析】
1. 句意为“他看着河里的自己”,句子主语是He,对应的反身代词是himself,A对应第一人称I,B对应第二人称you,D对应复数主语,均不符合,选C。
2. 句意为“但当他听到自己的声音时,他变得不开心,声音是沙哑的”,和声音搭配的动作是“听到”,B观看、C收集、D抬起均不符合语境,选A。
3. 句意为“为什么我没有如此动听的嗓音”,修饰名词短语a beautiful voice要用such,such+a/an+adj.+名词是固定结构,so多用于修饰形容词/副词,选C。

6. 句意为“我的声音听起来像石头在沙子上滚动的声音”,描述声音的感受要用sound like“听起来像”,A看起来像、C行为像、D尝起来像均不符合语境,选B。
7. 根据后文“每个生命都有自己的特点”可知句意为“每个生物都有自己的独特之处”,special表示特别的,A简单的、B令人放松的、D活着的均不符合语义,选C。
8. 前后句“夜莺有动听的嗓音”和“你有美丽的羽毛”是对比转折关系,while可以作连词表“然而”用于对比,A或者、C如果、D因为均不符合逻辑,选B。
