答案与解析　
1．A　人们有时会忘记这一天的意义。根据下文“我”把Huang的话信以为真可知，“我”忘记了那天是愚人节，排除B、D两项，C项“总是”忘记不符合实际。
2．D　从本段可以看出，当时我正在Durham University学习。因为谈到我毕业后还申请了几个大学来进一步学习。
3．B　从后文可以看出我每天都到传达室去等候来自大学对我的申请的答复，所以此处应该是我打算或计划毕业后再去深造。plan to do sth.意为“计划做某事”，而manage to do sth.表示已经成功地做了某事。
4．D　send ... to ...“向某处发送”。从文中可以看出我向几个大学发出了申请书。
5．B　根据上一句中的“go to another university”和下文的“He told me that a letter had arrived in his office for you from Manchester University”可知答案。
6．C　reply意为“答复”。report意思是“报道；报告”，而chance的意思是“机会”，都不符合句意。
7．D　从后面“with a toothbrush ________ in his hand”和“I even didn't ________ my breakfast and rushed to Mr. Green's office”两句可知是早饭。
8．A　still意为“仍然；还”。yet, already常用于完成时态，yet常用在疑问句和否定句中，不合题意。even意为“甚至”，表强调，但本题没有此意。结合题意“手里还拿着牙刷”可知选still。
9．B　as if ...指“好像……；似乎……”。A项后面不能接句子； after“在……之后”； while“当……时候”，都不符合当时情景。这个人似乎怕忘了这个重要的消息，所以他牙还没刷就来告诉我这个事情。
10．A　message在此处作“口信”讲。sign指“迹象”， letter意为“信”， notice指“布告；通知”，都不合题意。
11．B　as soon as在此为“尽快”的意思。
12．C　jump with joy“兴高采烈；高兴地跳起来”，是固定搭配。
13．B　finish“完成一般的事情”，是个常用词，其搭配是finish sth./doing sth.; complete“完成；完备”，指完成大的工程/项目。complete还有“补充完整”的意思。
14．B　be in“在这儿”，此处作“在办公室里”讲。
15．C　根据句法结构此处应用explain一词。explain的用法是：explain sth. to sb.或explain to sb. sth.。而tell后常跟双宾语或复合宾语，即tell sb. to do sth.或tell sb. sth.。
16．D　由后文or simply left it to me“或者将其交给我”可知，他应该会放在一个显眼的地方。
17．B　没有拿到想要的东西，当然会大失所望。
18．D　根据语境可知，是“我”让(let)她锁上门。watch/see sb. do表示动作已完成了； make语气不委婉。
19．D　suddenly＝all of a sudden“突然”。秘书前后说的话对于接受者来说显然过于“突然”。
20．C　秘书意识到问题所在，所以“眼前一亮”。
Ⅳ.阅读七选五

Ⅴ.语法填空
If you visit a supermarket in the UK in March or April, you will notice a strange thing: Shelf after shelf is filled with large, brightly colored eggs.
Look a little __1__ (close) and you will discover something else. These eggs aren't real. In fact, they __2__ (make) of chocolate. And that can mean only one thing — it's Easter time again.
Easter is a festival __3__ has been celebrated in Britain for thousands of years. These days we mark the occasion (场合) by __4__(give) each other chocolate eggs, or Easter eggs. But what are the roots of this __5__ (tradition) event
For Christian people Easter is a religious festival. According __6__ the Bible, Jesus Christ was killed by the Romans __7__ came back to life three days later. That is __8__ Easter is seen as a time of rebirth.

Whatever its origins, Easter is big business. The UK's biggest retailer (零售商) of Easter eggs sold more than 20 million units last year and some Easter eggs __10__ cost more than ￡20!
答案与解析　
1．closer　a little修饰比较级，故该空填closer。
2．are made　be made of ...“由……制成”。
3．that/which　这是一个定语从句，先行词是festival, 指物，关系词在从句中作主语，故用that/which引导定语从句。
4．giving　by doing sth.“通过做某事”。
5．traditional　设空后是名词event，应用形容词修饰，故填traditional。
6．to　according to ...“根据……”。
7．but　设空前后两句为转折关系，故填but。
8．why　That is why ...“这是为什么……”
9．when　这是一个定语从句，先行词the time指时间，设空后的从句缺少时间状语，故用关系副词when引导定语从句。
10．can　can表“可能会”。
