(CNN)-She traveled the world with her husband for 22 months without major trouble, but a month after returning to the United States, Leanne Hecht Bearden is missing after she went for a walk.
A search is under way in Texas, northeast of San Antonio, for the Denver woman who took a walk almost a week ago and has not returned to her residence where she and her husband, Josh, were staying.
Bearden, 33, went missing Friday in the early afternoon, and police are encouraging the public to provide any information. While family and friends say “police are engaged” in this case and are being “diligent in their efforts,” they have decided to take the search into their own hands and have hired private helicopters to help look for Bearden. Her brother, Michael Hecht, told CNN two helicopters searched for nearly three hours Thursday following ground searches the previous two days.
Bearden and her husband Josh had just returned to the United States in December after spending nearly two years traveling around the world. They documented their journey in a blog. She and her husband of four years were supposed to fly to their home in Denver on Tuesday to resume job searches.
Michael Hecht said upon returning to the United States the couple had spent a short time in Georgia, then went to Texas for a few weeks to visit Josh's family. He said they were working to find jobs in Denver, where the couple was married and had settled.
“Her poor husband is just devastated,” said Michael Hecht.
Josh Bearden told CNN, “She left on her own free will. That is what she did. That is absolutely true, but what happened after she left the house on her own free will I don't know.”
Garden Ridge police have sent out a “Missing Person Alert.” Garden police said a formal search in the community will occur on Saturday.

3.C 解析:詞義猜測題。文中的Michael Hecht在描述妹夫當(dāng)時(shí)的情況,因?yàn)槠拮幼呤,丈夫心中一定是非常著急,幾天尋找無果的狀態(tài)一定令他感到心情崩潰。故選C項(xiàng)。
