【解析】

试题分析：本文讲述了亨利倒霉的一天。

1.根据because his clock stopped可知，应该是起晚了。所以本题选B。

2.根据题干，本句的意思是“他尽力快一点刮脸，却割伤了自己”，“尽力做某事”是try to do。所以本题选A。

3.根据下文中的The only other shirt可知，本处应该是将血滴在了衬衫上。所以本题选

4.根据前面的主语The only other shirt that和was可知，本句应该是被动语态，根据被动语态的结构be+过去分词可知，本题应该选B。

5.本句的意思是“他付完水费后”，此处实际上是有关水费的账单。“账单”是bill。所以本题选C。

6.本句的意思是“他认为他不能乘公共汽车去上班”。“认为”是think，此处是过去时thought。所以本题选B。

7.本句的意思是“他打电话叫了一辆出租车”。“打电话”是telephone。所以本题选D。

8.本句的意思是“他坐进出租车”。Get in有“坐进，进入”的意思，一般 表示坐进轿车或出租车。所以本题选A。

9.本句的意思是“一个男人用刀杀了一个女人”，by一般表示”通过，经，由”，重在 强调方式；with+工具，表示用某种工具，行为主体是人；in+语言，表示用某种语言；through是“经过，通过”。故用with。所以本题选B。

10.本句的意思是“碰巧一个警察在那儿”。“碰巧”是happen to do。所以本题选C。

11.根据题干，本句的意思是“他被扣留到下午三点”。“留,保存”是keep。所以本题选D .

12.根据题干，本句的意思是“最后，警察发现他不是他们要找的人。”“最后”是at last或者in the end。所以本题选A .

13.arrive后面跟地点时，应该用介词in和at；in跟大地方，at跟小地方。根据office可知，应用at。所以本题选A。

14.根据题干，本句的意思是“老板注视着他”。Take a look是“注视”的意思，其他选项没有此意。所以本题选A。

15.根据题干，本句的意思是“告诉他去找另一项工作”。在此的“另一个”应该是不确定的，故应用another。所以本题选A。
