答案:
答案与解析:
(一)
本文是个幽默故事。讲述一个人说另一个人每天早上重复做同一件事,这样生活单调,其实自己也一样。
1. D 表示回家是come home与前面的去上班go to work相对。
2. C 表示看书看报用read。
3. B 由文末I’m sitting in the same seat behind you可知。
4. C 从下文可知是向他召呼问好,所以是say “Hello” to him。
5. D 打了召呼后自然就会开始(began) 谈起话来。
6. A 在同一时间、同一个车站、乘同一个火车,这是种单是调泛味的生活 (life)。而不是这工作,也不是办公,更不是指小孩。
7. B 指每天早上都是如此,才会说单调泛味。
8. A 史密斯先生听到(heard) 这些话。listen指有意识在“听”,强调动作,后接宾语时要加to;hear指听的结果“听到”。
9. B say to sb对某人说。虽然后面是一个问句,但表示问某人时ask后不用to,而直接说ask sb。
10. C 因为对史密斯先生如此了解,当然是“总”总在他的后面了。
(二)
1. A 由下文可知他们吵架是在旅途期间。
2. C 表示两者中的另一个用the other。

2. B 表示打电话的目的,引导目的状语从句用so that(为了、以便)。
3. B 是坐火车去,母亲来接当然是在火车站。
4. C 在检查衣袋后“发现”没零钱。find“发现”;find out通过调查、询问等这后“弄明白、搞清楚”。
5. C look around表示“向……的四周看、环顾四周”
6. C 表示“为……”用介词for。
7. A 显然是对那位young officer的回答。
8. D 看是否有零钱当然是将手放在衣服的口袋里。
9. A 根据后文可知是重新开始,所以用start。因前面的let’s,不用ask。
