【解析】(1)根據(jù)下文作者所做的工作以及第13題前的“butcher's”可知,作者的父親經(jīng)營(yíng)著一家小肉店。grocery“食品雜貨店”;butcher's“肉店”;chain“鏈子,連鎖商店”;barber's“理發(fā)店”。
(2)在父親的店里,新手會(huì)做最不好干的活,老板的兒子也不例外。hire“雇用,聘用”;invite“邀請(qǐng)”;receive“收到”;train“訓(xùn)練”。
(3)老板的兒子也被包括在內(nèi)。interest“使感興趣”;include“包括”;affect“影響”;offer“提供”。
(4)根據(jù)第二、三兩段對(duì)作者的工作的描述以及最后一段中的“I cleaned the dirty containers every Saturday afternoon”可知,作者的工作是除去冷凍室天花板上的霜凍,并弄干凈放在雞肉下面的容器。look into“審查,調(diào)查”;tear up“撕毀”;clean up“打掃干凈”;carry on“繼續(xù)移動(dòng)”。
(5)根據(jù)下文中的“Chicken sat in wooden boxes”可知,店里每天都會(huì)收到新鮮的雞肉。
(6) 為了保存雞肉,周?chē)鷷?huì)放一些碎冰。be surrounded with“被……包圍”。impress“使銘記”;accompany“陪伴”;cook“烹調(diào)”。
(7)根據(jù)第三段中的“carefully slide the containers from under the chicken”可知,容器在雞肉下面。
(8)只有一種辦法可以去除血水并清洗容器。chance“機(jī)會(huì)”;way“方法”;place“地方”;reason“原因”。
(9)根據(jù)第二段的最后一句可知,容器里有血腥味,因此作者屏住呼吸并小心地抽出容器。hold one's breath“屏住呼吸”。
(10)作者小心地抽出容器,盡量不讓里面的東西濺到衣服上。touch“觸摸”;notice“注意到”;find“發(fā)現(xiàn)”;splash“濺在……上”。
(11)然后將容器里的臟水倒入下水道。break“損壞,破碎”;divide“分開(kāi),分散”;empty“倒空”;allow“允許”。
(12)先行詞為students,空處引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句,且在從句中作主語(yǔ),故應(yīng)用who。
(13)根據(jù)文章第一句以及最后一段的內(nèi)容可知,作者暑假期間在父親的店里打工,所以此處指暑假結(jié)束時(shí)學(xué)生們都將返回學(xué)校。adapt“適應(yīng)”;walk“步行”;return“返回”;apply“應(yīng)用”。
(14)有些學(xué)生會(huì)有美好的回憶,而有些學(xué)生則帶著不愉快的回憶返校。前后為對(duì)比關(guān)系,因此使用while。
(15)此處應(yīng)與“great”意思相反,因此選擇D項(xiàng)。
(16)作者認(rèn)為父親本能把自己從每周的苦境中解救出來(lái),但父親沒(méi)有那樣做。spare sb from sth“使某人免去某物”。force“強(qiáng)迫”;treat“對(duì)待,款待”;push“推”。
(17)作者覺(jué)得為了養(yǎng)家而輟學(xué)的父親實(shí)際上是自己的老師,他讓作者懂得了很多做人的道理。at heart“在心里”;in fact“事實(shí)上,實(shí)際上”;in case“以防萬(wàn)一”;at home“在家”。
(18)作者的父親知道區(qū)別對(duì)待自己的兒子與其他員工是不公平的。kindly“親切地”;carefully“仔細(xì)地”;differently“不同地”;warmly“熱烈地”。 (19)最重要的是,父親教作者在生活中要理解那些從事又累又臟的工作的人。witness“目擊,見(jiàn)證”;appreciate“理解,明白”;hurt“傷害”;influence“影響”。
(20)根據(jù)空格前的“hard and”及最后一段中的“I cleaned the dirty container”可知,應(yīng)選擇B項(xiàng),dirty“臟的”。

I used to be a thin little kid who was always the shortest and sickest in my class. I wasn't very athletically involved during my childhood.
When I entered middle school, a lot of my friends were signing up for the school's sports teams. On the first day of tryouts(選拔賽) for the soccer team, the coach told us to run laps for warm-up. As I struggled to keep up with the team, I found myself falling farther behind until I was the last one to finish.
I was disappointed, but at the same time, I knew I had to do something about my health and fitness. People thought I was crazy because I ran a slow 11-mintue mile in the gym class, but I was determined to get into shape and improve my mile time.
It was a lot of running for me, but I kept on practicing day after day. As the seasons progressed, I found that I could run longer and faster.
Eighth grade soon rolled around and I was feeling really confident about trying out for another sports meet. Instead of attempting soccer a second time, I decided to give field hockey a try. This time, I was well prepared. After a week of tryouts, I was ecstatic (狂喜的) to see that my name made it on the list.
I was inspired, and I learned an important lesson: Once you do get into shape, don't stop or give up!
A. Again, the coach instructed us to run a lot of laps.
B. After tryouts were over, my name never made it on the list.
C. I made a big decision to sign up for the track and field team.
D. Being in shape helped me feel energetic, flexible, and strong.
E. Fortunately, I wasn't the only slow runner trying to get into shape.
F. The first day of practice was one of the hardest workouts I've ever had.
G. One of my friends convinced me to try out for the soccer team with her and I agreed.

Tips for a Happier Workplace
You don't have to be friends with your co-workers, but you do need to be fri endly. Read on for fresh ways to make your office a kinder, gentler place.
◆Give a happy “Hello! ”in the morning
Do you walk into the office, eyes down, and immediately start work? If so, you are likely to find that co-workers ignore(忽視)you or avoid you.(1) It’s really amazing how fast this small gesture can change unfriendly workplace relations.
◆Learn the art of small talk
Ask your co-workers about their interests—their favorite music, movies, and books, as well as their hobbies. (2) Once you know what catches their imagination, pick up stories from newspapers or magazines to help start conversations.
◆Ask what they think
People love to be asked for their opinion, so go out of your way to ask, “What do you think of this report? ” or “How do you think I should deal with this situation? ” (3)
◆Avoid gossip(流言飛語(yǔ))(4) So return the favor. When a co-worker walks towards you bearing a piece of gossip, respond(回應(yīng))with, “Really? ”and then change the subject or get back to work. If you don’t respond, the gossiper will move on.
◆(5)
To win friends at work, start with good office etiquette(禮節(jié)). There's nothing more frustrating(令人沮喪的)to busy co-workers than to have their emails and phone messages ignored. Your silence doesn’t just make their jobs harder; it also conveys(傳達(dá))an unpleasant message: You are unimportant to me.
A. Stop complaining.
B. Return calls and emails immediately.
C. Then give the advice giver a silent thank-you.
D. Always work as hard as anyone working for you.
