Answer

1.B为车子找“停车”的地方。从下文的where he had parked中亦能得到暗示。

2.C乔治是驾车到牙科诊所治病的，故不可能将车停在离诊所很远的地方，由于诊所附近没有合适的停车之处，因此，只能将车停在离诊所有一段距离的一条街上。

3.A由下一句可知，他看的是“手表”。

4.Cspare意为“剩下”。

5.D根据行文逻辑可以推知。下一节首句再现了sat一词。

6.B“享受”夕照。

7.A对partly…进行补充说明。

8.C习惯搭配

9.B通过分析句子意义和结构，可知listen是乔治发生的动作，故应和watching并列用作伴随状语。

10.C他是在那条“街”上停的车。

11.B out of sight意为“消失”。

12.B在口袋中“摸”钥匙，不是“寻找”。

13.C in a loud voice“大声地”，习惯搭配。

14.A由上文He crossed into the square…可知。

15.B他的车起初之所以未被看见，原来是隐藏在一辆大车后面了。

16.C从still in his car可推知答案。

17.D experience指上文所发生的事。全句意思为：我经历了一件十分奇特的事。

18.C从乔治和医生的对话来看，乔治在为“迟到”作解释。

19.B原以为车子被“盗”。

20.D因为当时刚好5点，而且自己也刚到，所以医生说“没关系”。
