【解析】

本文主要讲述了“我”倒霉的一天。我要参加Sally的聚会，本来计划乘坐Eric的车一起去，可是我刚刚换好衣服，他说生病不能去了，我不得不独自乘火车去。当我打电话的时候，猫弄脏了我的衬衫，我要找一件新的。当我到达车站的时候，刚好错过一辆火车，需要等下一辆。好不容易坐上车，又因睡着，坐过了站，不得不步行返回。后来发现又迷路了，最后到Sally家快到半夜了。

1.她邀请我去她的生日聚会。show展示，suggest建议，invite邀请，根据句意可知这里表示邀请，故选C。

2.句意：当我穿好衣服的时候，Eric打电话说他生病不能去Sally的聚会了。since自从，when当....时候，though虽然尽管，根据句意这里表示“当…时候”，故选B.

3.句意：不幸的是，当我正在打电话的时候，我的猫爬到我干净的衬衫上。“打电话”固定短语talk on the phone, 故选A.

4.句意：所以我需要花几分钟时间再找一件。句子中有spend,故用到spend (in) doing sth; check检查，核对，look看，find找到，结合句意和所给单词，这里表示“再找一件衣服”，故选C。

5.句意：我刚好错过了火车，所以我必须等待下一辆火车。got off下车，miss错过，caught赶上，根据后文“so I had to wait for another one”可知，他刚好错过了一辆，故选B。

6.句意：我是如此的有冷又累以至于我在车上睡着了，并坐过了站。enjoy oneself玩得高兴，fall asleep 入睡，play cards玩卡片，根据句子中的“cold and tired t”以及“missed my station”可以推测作者在火车上睡着了，故选B。

7.句意：我在下一站下了车，并决定步行回到Sally家。up向上, forward向前，back向后，根据前文“坐过了站”，所以需要“返回”walk back步行返回，故选C。

8.句意：我走了半个小时，然后意识到我迷路了。lost迷路的，hungry饥饿的，sad悲伤的; 根据后文I found a public phone and telephoned for a taxi.说明作者并没有顺利步行到Sally的家，故这里表示“迷路了” be lost, 故选A。

9.句意：当我最后到达Sally家的时候，已经快半夜了，别人都要回家了。hardly几乎不，nearly几乎，将近，still 仍然，结合句意这里表示 “快要半夜了”故选B.

10.句意：多么糟糕的一天啊！lovely可爱的，exciting 令人兴奋的，terrible糟糕的，根据文章描述可知这是作者很糟糕的一天，故选C。
