答案与解析
1.D 他要求给他看一些金项链。D项有“展示;出示”的意思; B项不符合句意; A、C两项不如D项表达更准确。
2.C 仔细查看几条后。examine为look at sth.closely to see if there is anything wrong or improper,比B、D两项更确切; A项为“买;得到”与下文矛盾。
3.B ask为“询问”,与下文OK一词相呼应, C项“质问;质疑”不合句意。
4.A sign one's name意为“签名”,是固定搭配。
5.A 由下文The manager was very polite,可知,经理对顾客很有礼貌,因此此处用invite比较合适。
6.B 该空所填词应与下文They were polite too中polite一词相呼应,并且由but也可得知。
7.C exactly是“恰恰;正好”,表强调。
8.D 由作者的朋友被请到经理室,经理问他问题可知,应是“空头支票”。
9.A B、C两项与语境不符; D项为“害怕”与作者的朋友到别处买相矛盾。
10.B 想去别处买,因此作者的朋友起身要离开。get up to go为“起身离开”; give up“放弃”; come up“靠近”; go up“上升”。
11.C 由下文The police arrived very soon.可知,这里指经理警告作者的朋友,“警察”很快会来。
12.D 当他站起来要走的时候,经理告诉他警察随时会到,如果不想陷入更大的麻烦,最好待在那儿。unless“除非”,与had better形成对比。
13.A 此处指警察解释他们要验证笔迹的原因。
14.B 警察也很礼貌并解释说用同样名字的人应该和几天前的抢劫案有关。故此处用use,其他选项不合句意。
15.A 这里警察通过验证笔迹来破案,所以要作者的朋友抄下罪犯留下的便条。copy out“仔细(全部)地抄下……”; repeat不与out搭配; write out“写出;写完”; print out“(打印机)打出”。
16.B 由上文robberies可知,此处应指“小偷”作案后留下的便条,且后文my friend's handwriting was quite unlike the thief's处也有提示。
17.C read为“写到;说到”的意思。要表达“便条”上“写道;说道”常用read。
18.D ask no questions“不要问问题”,是固定搭配。
19.B 由下文提到的my friend's handwriting was quite unlike the thief's可知此空应填fortunately“幸运的是”。
20.B take sth. with sb. “带走某物”。

So far, only about 300 people from all around the world __10__(go) into space, but the number will surely increase as scientists continue to explore space.
答案与解析
1.what what引导主语从句且在从句中作宾语。
2.was sent 本句缺少谓语,又句中时间状语为on April 12, 1961,故用一般过去时。
3.a a point“一个地方”,a表泛指。
4.who/that 这是一个定语从句,先行词Valentina Tereshkova指人,从句中缺少主语,故用关系代词who/that引导定语从句。
5.that it was/is reported that ...“据报道……”。
6.actually 设空处所填词在句中作状语修饰谓语have walked,应用副词形式,故填actually。
7.to set the first修饰名词the man,应用不定式作后置定语。
8.up pick up“拾起;捡起”。
9.to bring sth. back to sp.“把某物带回某地”。
10.have gone 设空处所填词在句中作谓语,又根据时间状语so far可知应填have gone。

Lily and I are very interested in science, so we decided to visit the Science Museum today. It is not too far from our homes. It is about two kilometer, so we thought it was better to go there by the bike.
At eight we set off. It is very nice and sunny. When we got at the gate, there were many people wait there. We met some of my classmates or teachers. There we saw a lot of interested things and equipment. We could touch them and even operate anything. We thought we had learned a lot and were more interested in science.
At half past eleven we had to leave home. What happy we were today!
