161．句意：楚王对晏子的所作所为感到不满。此处是宾语从句，从句中缺少did的宾语，用what引导宾语从句。故填what。
162．句意：我是最差的。根据“If Qi meets a great king, it’ll send the best ambassador (使臣).”和“That’s why I’m here”可知，晏子此处是反讽语气，说自己是最差的人，应用最高级worst，故填worst。
163．句意：国王不礼貌地问。根据“is Qi a state of thieves”结合选词可知，国王这样问很不礼貌，修饰动词asked用副词impolitely“不礼貌地”。故填impolitely。
164．句意：淮河以南的橘子树结的果子又大又好吃。根据“The orange trees south of Huai River...big and delicious fruit. ”结合选词可知，是指淮河以南生产的橘子，应用produce“生产”，此处是一般现在时，主语是复数，动词用原形，故填produce。
165． 句意：在齐国，人们善良诚实，但在这里，他们偷窃。根据“What made that person a thief here”结合选词可知，他们在这里偷窃，steal“偷窃”，句子用一般现在时，主语是they，谓语动词用原形。故填steal。
166．句意：最后，国王看着晏子，笑道：“我错怪了你和你的国家！”。根据“looked at Yan Zi and...”可知，国王听了晏子的话之后笑了，laugh“笑”，句子用一般过去时，动词用过去式。故填laughed。
