Please water the plants twice a week. (84) 你能在星期四的时候把垃圾扔了吗? They come for the trash then. Please check my mail box for me on Wednesday, too.

【解析】

试题分析：这篇短文玛丽给约翰的一封信。玛丽请他照顾她的住所，照看猫和鱼，浇浇花。倒垃圾，还有查收邮件等。

1.细节理解题。根据Please feed the cat and the fish every day.可知每天要喂猫。故填Every day.

2.细节理解题。根据Please check my mail box for me on Wednesday,可知要检查邮箱，故填Mary’s mail box。

3.推理判断题。根据上下文可知鱼食在厨房挨着猫食。故填next to the cat food（in the kitchen)。

4.汉译英。关键词take out/throw on ,Thursday.句式为Could you…?故填Could you take out the trash on Thursday?/Can you throw the rubbish on Thursday?。

5.英译汉题。该句的重点词是：when,当……。forget to do 忘记做……。故答案是当你离开的时候别忘记锁门。
