【答案】

【2】D

【3】A

【4】E

【5】C

【解析】

文章介紹的是Betty Kwan成立了一家名為“It’s Done”的公司，幫助忙碌的人跑腿，例如寄信、取藥、購物等。Betty總是很忙碌。她為能夠幫助別人感到高興。

【1】句意：她為忙碌的人辦事。

根據(jù)句意理解及句中的She does errands(跑腿) for且空格后面有名詞people可知，這里需要一個形容詞，在句中作定語修飾后面的名詞，且這里表達的是“忙碌的”，所以這里應(yīng)該用busy，故選B。

【2】句意：她的顧客為她每小時的服務(wù)付費。

根據(jù)句意理解及空格后的each hour of her service可知，這里表達的是“付費”，英語是短語pay for，而文中用的是一般現(xiàn)在時，句子主語是復數(shù)名詞，所以這里的動詞用原形，故選D。

【3】句意：午飯時間我得去銀行，郵局，干洗店，我總是趕時間。

根據(jù)句意理解可知，這里表達的是“在午餐時間”，英語中表達“在……時間”等具體的時間點時，要用的介詞是at，故選A。

【4】句意：貝蒂仍然很忙。

根據(jù)句意理解及后句Yesterday, I went to the post office and then to the airport. Today I have to buy presents for all the secretaries in the company. 昨天，我去了郵局，然后去了機場。今天我要給公司所有的秘書買禮物�？芍�這里表達的是“仍然很忙”，所以這里應(yīng)該用still，故選E。

【5】句意：但它總是很有趣，我真的很喜歡和我的客戶交談。

根據(jù)句意理解可知，這里表達的是“與某人交談”，英語是talk to sb，而這里表達的是“喜歡做某事”，英語是love doing sth，所以這里要用talking to，故選C。
