1.

句意：而且它还不贵。

考查形容词辨析及语境。expensive昂贵的；cheap便宜的；attractive吸引人的。根据上文“I’d heard that there is a cool antique (古董) store in New Jersey which sells old and uncommon things from past generations.”可知，这家古董店很酷，这是对这家店褒义的评价，因此这里也应顺应上文，古董店的价格不贵，故选A。

2.

句意：这家店真的使你感觉像是生活在上世纪五十年代。

考查动词辨析及语境。sound听起来；smell闻起来；feel感觉。根据句意可知，走进这间店，就像是回到了上世纪五十年代，这是这个店给作者的感觉，C选项符合语境，故选C。

3.

句意：我一打开门，就惊讶地发现里面的东西。

考查动词辨析及语境。locked锁；opened打开；touched触摸。根据上文“Several days ago, I went to New Jersey. I visited Old Mill Antiques.”可知，“我”去了一个古董店，所以应该是打开门看到里面的东西。故选B。

4.

句意：里面摆满了木制大时钟、珠宝、卡通雕像、卷角的书和花哨的帽子。

考查动词、形容词辨析及语境。full满的，是形容词，常用于短语be full of，不符合搭配；covered覆盖；filled充满，装满。C和D在和空后的搭配上合适，但根据句意，这里表示古董店里充满了……，B选项意思不合适，故选C。

5.

句意：“哦，唱片！”看到两箱旧唱片和一台留声机，我高兴地喊道。

考查副词辨析及语境。happily开心地；angrily生气地；peacefully和平地。根据上文“I was surprised to find what was there.”可以看出，作者对古董店里的东西感到很惊喜，而这些唱片吸引了作者的注意力，他非常的喜欢，所以应该是“高兴地喊”，故选A。

6.

句意：我只在电影里见过留声机，从没在现实生活中见过！

考查副词辨析及语境。once一次；曾经；never从不；often经常。根据句中“I have only seen phonograph machines in movies”可知，作者只在电影里见过留声机，所以没有在现实生活中见到过。故选B。

7.

句意：我一遍又一遍地看这些唱片，看到了熟悉的名字，如披头士、滚石乐队、大卫·鲍伊和迈克尔·杰克逊……

考查名词辨析及语境。songs歌曲；bands乐队；names名字。根据空后“such as the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, David Bowie and Michael Jackson ...”可知，这里列举的是一些乐队和歌手的名字，故选C。

8.

句意：有些唱片是全新的，而另一些则是使用过的。

考查形容词辨析及语境。broken破的；坏的；cool酷的，凉爽的；new新的。句中while表示对比，后面说“一些是用过的”，因此空格处应表示有些是没有用过的，即“全新的”。故选C。

9.

句意：一个店员告诉我，由于质量不同，店里古董的价格差别很大。

考查短语辨析及语境。instead of代替，而不是；because of因为；rather than而不是。根据句意可知，这里介绍的是古董价格有差别的原因，B选项符合语境，故选B。

10.

句意：以木制时钟为例，有的标价高达500美元，而类似的只有50美元。

考查动词辨析及语境。pay支付，付钱，主语应该是人；take花费，常用于It takes sb….to do sth.；cost花费，主语为物。空前some similar ones指代的是“一些古董”，是物，因此C选项合适，故选C。
