Shortly after不久,很快;B. Long before很久之前;C. Shortly不久;D. soon很快。按照逻辑,“我”做下面这些事情是在朋友走后。设空后是句子,shortly和soon都是副词,因此C、D两项不合题意。故选A。 10.考查上下文语境。didn't仅表示过去的一种情况,而couldn't则表示过去不能够这么做。a word 是一种强调的说法,相当于any word,因此此空是否定形式。句意:因为“我”不会说任何的英语。故选A。 11.考查动词辨析。A. ask问;B. say说;C. tell告诉;D. order命令。 句意:因为“我”不会说英语,因此“我”不能告诉服务员“我”想要的东西。故选C。 12.考查动词辨析。A. begun开始;B. started开始;C. must必须;D. started to开始。句意:“我”非常伤心,“我”开始做些手势。A项是begin的过去分词,不符合语境。故选B。 13.考查连词辨析。分析句子结构,及句意可知,前后为转折关系。故选D。 14.考查动词辨析。A. ordered订餐;B. booked订票,订房间;C. asked要求;D. got得到。由语境及句意可知,“我”点了邻桌人吃的同样的东西。故选A。 15.考查词组搭配。固定词组:at the table坐在桌旁。故选C。 16.考查连词辨析。句意为:饭后,“我”沿大街一直走到Time Square。D项有较大干扰性,在此作者用until强调所走过的距离,而用before则强调先后的动作,因此选项D不合题意。故选B。 17.考查量词辨析。crowds of people许许多多的人;groups of people一队一队的人。看电影的人不可能都是结队而来,因此选项B不合题意。故选A。 18.考查动词搭配。词组:walk around “四处走走”符合语境。故选A。 19.考查上下文语境。句意为:因为夜里不断地听到火警和警车的汽笛声,“我”无法入睡。keep doing不断(反复)地做某事。start doing sth.开始做某事,强调动作的开始,根据上下文,不合题意。故选C。 20.考查动词辨析。根据语境,此空所需要的是lie (躺,卧)的过去式,因此用lay。故选B。

Two traveling angels(天使) stop to spend the night in the home of a wealthy family. The family was rude and refused to let the angels stay in the guest room. Instead the angels were given a space in the cold basement. As they made their bed on the hard floor, the older angel saw a hole in the wall and repaired it. When the younger angel asked why, the older angel replied, “Things aren’t always what they seem.”

The next night the pair came to rest at the house of a very poor but very hospitable(好客的) farmer and his wife. After sharing what little food they had, the couple let the angels sleep in their bed where they could have a good night’s rest. When the sun came up the next morning, the angels found the farmer and his wife in tears. Their only cow, whose milk had been their only income, lay dead in the field.

The younger angel was very angry and asked the older angel, “How could this happen? Why didn’t you watch out for the cow? The first man had everything, yet you watched over his house,” she accused. “The second family had little but was willing to share everything, and you didn’t help.”

“Things aren’t always what they seem,” the older angel replied. “When we stayed in the basement, I noticed there was gold stored in that hole in the wall. Since the owner was so greedy and unwilling to share his good fortune, I asked God if I could seal(封口) the wall so he couldn’t find it. Then last night as we slept in the farmer’s bed, the angel of death came for his wife. I asked God if the angel could take the cow instead. Things aren’t always what they seem.”
