19、rs 9. industrial 10. BrazilII. 1A 。空白处后面是名词，表所处状态。 C 和 D 项后面接形容词表状态；B 项接名词表身份，要有冠词。2C 。work ones way 表示”干出一条路来，开创”。3D 。此空应填 turn down，表示”回绝” ，即未被录用。4D 。从后面提到的事情来看，此人是很 ”善良”的，她建议我试试小单位。5A 。后面的句子”find a small station”暗示此处是相反词。6B 。 ”给次机会 ”比”给份工作”含义广，且有机会就有工作的可能性。7C 。manage 意为” 管理、经营”，order 意为”订购、命令”，A、
20、B 两项在句意上不符合上下文。此句意为：当地新开了一家商店，需要一个人手经营体育用品部门。8C 。此项工作听起来很适合我，但这件事情只是耳闻，具体内容还为得知，只能用”听说”。9B 。offer sb. sth.意为” 主动为某人提供某物” ；provide 和 supply 同义， ”提供给”之意。此处译为” 借给我用”更合适，虽然我遇到困难，他们可以给我精神上或物质上的支持，但决不替代我，借车给我用比送给我更能体现我要凭借自己的力量去面对困难的精神。10D 。try sth.表示”试试” 而”try sp.”表示” 到某处试试”，B、C 搭配不成立，A 项语意不通。11B 。下一段表明我离
21、开了他的办公室，之所以离开，肯定是那家电台已经雇了人手。12A 。aloud 为”发出声”之意，我本不是故意，但是无意中说出了声，才有下文的老板追出来问我。13B 。全文贯穿了我要干与体育有关的工作，当然最好的是体育节目解说员。经过了一番挫折与努力，最后我终于如愿以偿。14D 。be doing sth. when是固定句式，表示一件事情进行时，发生了另一件事，往往有突然之意。15D 。选项中与体育有关的只有 football。16A 。stand sb.让某人站在（话筒）前。17D 。试试我的解说才能，考考我，让我播一段虚拟的比赛片段。18C 。win a game 比赛获胜，my team
22、 指我支持的球队。19B 。正因为在我队获胜之前，我做了一刻钟的拉拉队员，展现了我的播音及解说才华，所以老板决定周六的比赛由我主播。20A 。think of 意为” 想起”，胜利之时想起妈妈常鼓励我的话。III. 1B that 作为代词代替的是前面出现过的词，因此不难推断出它代替的就是 “wished to have a picture or something of his in their homes”。2B 从短文首句可以得出正确答案。3C 从文章可见，许多人想得到将军的个人物品，而古玩店就都投其所好，自然也就因此而盈利了。4B 整个故事围绕着将军的牙而展开的而非将军本人或其他。IV
23、. One possible version:Hi, Phil, Id like you to organize a trip to Scotland for us.
