【解析】

1.考查名词。根据reviewing their lessons for the exams可推知。classmates在此表意不清。

2.考查动词。由have to retake them可推知。

3.考查动词。由Jane didn’t want to be one of them合前一句话可推知。

4.考查连词。前后形成对比，全句意思为“她已刻苦学习整整一年，可是临考前还得努力。”

5.考查形容词。根据上下文之间的逻辑关系予以选定。

6.考查副词。从下句的she should have an early night可推知，临近考试时她睡得很迟。

7.考查动词。 根据从句中的虚拟语气形式可排除B、D，根据语境可排除C。

8.考查动词。根据下一句和下一节第三句可知是“安眠药”。

9.考查代词。从上文可知，是将Jane叫醒。

10.考查名词。思维活动应在“大脑”中进行。

11.考查名词后来终于睡着了，这说明之前吃的“安眠药”起了作用。

16.考查名词。根据look at和Time was running out 可推知。

17.考查动词短语。一题未做完又做下一题，说明暂时放弃了前一题。

18.考查动词。从第四个空格前的内容可知Jane 极不愿意不及格并补考，为此刻苦学习了一年，而考试时却一败涂地，怎能不会焦急、伤心。
