答案:1.C;2.A;3.D;4.B;5.D;6.A;7.D;8.A;9.B;10.C;11.D;12.B;13.C;14.B;15.D;16.B;17.C;18.A;19.A;20.D;
解析:

(1)

從下文的“Then he waited impatiently for 15 minutes more”可得出此題為C項。

(2)

作者從patient到angry的過程。B、C、D三個選項不符合題意。

(3)

have an idea意為“有了一個主意”,從下文發(fā)生的事可得出此答案。

(4)

做出這樣不快樂的表情在當(dāng)時那種情況下并不困難,因為那就是他的切身感受。

(5)

用“shocked”形容照片上的表情令人震驚,與后文中妻子的反應(yīng)相映照。

(6)

排除法。職員、秘書、過路人、朋友中只有職員是可能在柜臺后面接待客人的。

(7)

if引導(dǎo)條件狀語從句,意為“如果……”,表示囑咐這位職員如果遇到他所描述的婦女,就把照片交給她。

(8)

下文說明了男主人公在妻子到達(dá)之前離開,因此他可以想象妻子將會在附近尋找他。

(9)

根據(jù)下文的office,與之搭配的詞組return to可知。

(10)

根據(jù)上下文,“丈夫認(rèn)為自己的做法能很好地教訓(xùn)一下妻子”,所以對這個做法表示“很滿意”。

(11)

本句意為“如果一張圖片抵得過上千個字的話,這四張照片將會是一次很好的講演了”。

(12)

根據(jù)“妻子把這些照片拿給每一個詢問她是否已婚的人看”,可推斷前文是saved。

(13)

此段開始升華文章主題,“patience”正是作者呼吁人們應(yīng)該擁有的東西。

(14)

本句意為“總是有一些需要我們等待的東西”。

(15)

耐心是一種生活中不可缺少的品質(zhì),選用A(課程)、B(經(jīng)驗)、C(目的)都不符合題意。

(16)

for example意為“例如”;after all意為“總之,畢竟”;right now意為“立刻,馬上”;so far意為“至今”。

(17)

根據(jù)句意,“每一天都會有很多訓(xùn)練我們學(xué)會等待的機(jī)會”,可推斷此題。

(18)

語意層進(jìn):我們可以討厭等待,也可以接受甚至享受等待。

(19)

certain意為“確定的”;interesting意為“有趣的”;precious意為“珍貴的”;easy意為“簡單的”。

(20)

“你的等待訓(xùn)練情況怎么樣?”最后一句再次點(diǎn)明文章中心。

Nicolette Morganti’s friends can’t understand why she joined a dating agency(婚姻介紹所).

She has a good job    1    a personal assistant with a television news agency, her own house, and a full social life. But she, a 29-year-old woman, who has a degree in English Literature(文學(xué)),is so    2    with British    3    that she joined the English Rose dating agency to get in touch with single American males.

“English men are usually materialistic and have    4    imagination,” she says.

“I have    5    years being bored by men who never do anything    6    .”

“I’m almost 30 now and I would really love to    7    a husband and have    8   .I’d like to live in London for six months of the year and in the States for   9     six months.”

In her search for the perfect man, Nicolette once    10    an advertisement in a magazine for    11    people and had 400 replies.

But she says, “I only met one or two of them.  12    of the others sounded very   13   .”

Nicolette joined English Rose about 18 months    14    and has met    15    then.

This was one of my experiences    1   .When I was in my 30s,I was working for a large international company which had its head office in London. I was working in the   2   department.

The company had a training center which was just outside London. Different courses were held there throughout    3    and I    4    go on one training course a year. These usually started    5    a Sunday evening and lasted six days.

Once I was    6    a week’s training course with about forty    7    sales people. I was in the bar on the Friday evening and suddenly a woman who was    8    behind the bar asked me a curious question.“I hope you don’t    9   my asking,” she said, “but I’ve been     10    about it all week. Have you got a sister   11     Mary?” The woman’s name was June. And she used to do various jobs at the training center’s worked in the office, she organized all the food and drink for the center and she worked in the bar at lunch time and in the evening.

My answer    12    June’s question was “Yes”,and June said,“I thought    13   .I met her last September when she was organizing a course here.” At that time, my sister was working for   14    company but in a different part of the country. That was    15    she came to be at the training center.
      16    surprised me was how June guessed we were brother and sister. Three things made it even more   17    .First, she had met my sister six months before she met me. Second, they have about sixty new people every week at the training center’s about one thousand five hundred people had    18    the center in those six months. And    19   ,my sister is married, so she doesn’t have the same family name as me.

We’re not    20    ,but I guess we must look quite like each other.
