15、riesDintroduce different cultures in different countries1Some people do not like anything to be out of order.(完形填空第一段第一句)有些人不喜欢把事情弄得紊乱。(1)The phone at the street corner is out of order again.街角的电话又坏了。(2)Tims room is in good order.蒂姆的房间井然有序。2I can remember saying to my father.(阅读理解第一段第二句 )我记得对父亲说过(1)

17、d.饭菜上好了。答案.1.D 根据文章首句的意思，此处应用一个表示否定的副词，故用 never。2B 此处应用表示“归还”的词，故选 return。3D 根据上下文，此类人的生活习惯是消费后离开时及时付账单，故选 D。4C 此处 such 用形容词，意为 “这样的，如此的”，a、an 置于 such 之后。5B on ones own 是固定词组，意为 “独自，独立。 ”6A 根据句子里人物间的关系，应选 A。7C 此句可用定语从句的形式 her son who was named Mark 或 named 过去分词直接作定语。8C her family 是指姐姐的家庭，选 her 是和 hi
18、s sister 搭配。9A seventeen birthdays 只能是指 Mark 的十七个生日。 10D Mr.Dodds 生活极有规律，据此可推断那天他回家的时间和平常一样，所以选usual。 11B 主句已给动词 drive，据此用同一意思的词的现在分词短语表示方式。12B 句意及语法决定此处应用并列连词 neithernor。13A 此句用 always 可以反映 Mr.Dodds 的生活习惯。14B down 指 Mr.Dodds 下车去做晚餐。15B (a) knock 指敲门声，用作名词。16D answer the door 意为 “应门”，相似的用法还有 answer
19、the (tele) phone 接电话。17A find somebody doing (something)意为“发现或看见某人正在干(某事)” 。选项 A符合这一结构，其他的都不对。18A do something wrong 意思是“做错某事”。此处用的是 what 引导的疑问句。19C 此项的选择应根据全文来理解。Mr.Dodds 循规蹈矩，谨小慎微，因而才会担心自己走错路被警察盯上。20B 最后一句里的人名暗示了此选项，这也是本文戏剧性所在。.1.B 细节理解题。由第二段倒数第三句可知在古罗马的 the Saturnalia 节上，奴隶们可以吃到最好的食物并得到奴隶主的服侍。2B
20、细节判断题。由文章第三段最后一句可知 B 项正确。3D 词义猜测题。第四段提到 Puck 是一个小精灵，所以他制造了两个恶作剧之后便说：这些人是多么愚蠢；而且最后一段也有提示“we mortals are fools sometimes.”。4C 推理判断题。根据第一段及最后一段中的“its a good time to admit itonce a year on April Fools Day”可知作者喜欢愚人节。5C 意图推断题。根据全文可知“April Fools Day，the Saturnalia，the Holi Festival”以及莎士比亚剧作中写到的故事是类似愚人节的节日或喜欢恶作剧的人等，即不同国家有些风俗习惯是相似的。
