21、来庆祝。故选 C 项。17A 表示在某方面，应该用 in。这里指不同颜色的衣服。18B 根据前面的信息很容易判断出此处表示因果关系，故用therefore。19A 根据后面的 at 可知此处应选 arrived。20B “wear”一词除了表示“穿戴”状态外，还可以表示“佩戴首饰” 。21D 根据 from the manager 可知此处表示“得知” ，故选 D 项。22C pay “支付”与 spend“花费”通常用人来作主语；而take“需要 ”意义不符，只有 cost“价钱为；需花费”用物作主语，所以答案选 C 项。23A 他们兄妹为晚会做好了充分的准备，所以选 A 项，此处表示状态，
22、而不是动作。24B 根据下文 have dinner 可知应该是在餐馆里。25D 由下文可知迪安娜丢了钻石，她发现后肯定会 screaming“尖叫” 。26C gone“丢失的；不见的” ；而 lost 强调“遗失；迷路” 。此处表示钻石被偷，应该是不见了，所以选 C 项。27A 根据 25 空可知此处表示大声喊叫，应用 cry 一词，再根据and 不难看出此处缺少并列谓语动词。所以 A 项为正确答案。28B 迪安娜丢失了钻石，这个黑衣盗贼肯定是带着钻石逃跑。29A 文章第 2 个空已经告诉我们来参加晚会的人们穿着不同颜色的衣服，所以应用 colorful 一词表示“五彩缤纷的” 。30B
23、因为街上满是狂欢的人们，所以追赶小偷就很难了。31D 小偷怕被抓，肯定疯狂逃跑，文章并没有交代小偷开车或骑车。32C 前文交代小偷在跑的过程中摔倒，这兄妹两人赶快坐到小偷身上把他抓住。33C 警察抓住小偷后会把他送往监狱。故 C 项为正确选项。34A 凯莉和史蒂夫帮助迪安娜找回了丢失的钻石，她肯定会表示感谢。35B 根据句意：这是他们过得最好的狂欢节，根据最高级可以知道，此处表示“曾经”之意，故用 ever。第二部分 阅读理解(共两节；满分 30 分)第一节 (共 10 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 20 分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B 、C 和 D)中，选出最佳选项。AYasm
