55、开，逃离”；turn up“偶然出现，到来”；cut in“打断”。2A.hardlyBsimplyCnarrowlyDparticularly答案B上文中的“it was too expensive”和下文中的“we didnt have much money”可知，作者家里本身就不富裕，故根本买不起蹦蹦跷。此处simply表示“实在，根本”。3A.deskBstoreCserviceDcounter答案D作者一家去还款，因此，此处指在柜台(counter)办理业务时。at ones service“为某人效劳”。4A.bookBtoyCtoolDfood答案C从下文得知，父亲买了一把旧笤帚
56、，就此判断他应该是去的工具(tool)部。5A.taken care ofBglanced throughCconfirmedDguaranteed答案A支付结束后，作者和母亲在外面等父亲。take care of意为“承担(费用)”，此处可引申为“支付”。glance through“浏览”；confirm“确认”；guarantee“保证”。6A.realizingBdoubtingCwonderingDfancying答案C作者在那时想知道(wondering)盒子里是不是他想要的礼物。注意：fancy是“设想，想象”之意，与语境不符。7A.busyBcrazyCcontentDpati
57、ent答案A从housework得知父母忙(busy)于家务，作者才借此机会悄悄溜进仓库。crazy“着迷的”；content“满意的”；patient“耐心的”。8A.slidBbrokeCwalkedDburst答案A参见上题解析。slide into“悄悄溜进”；break into“强行闯入”；burst into“突然(哭、笑、唱)起来”。9A.smallBmagicCheavyDfragile答案B从bright，shiny可以体会出来，作者对这个盒子充满了期待，因此在作者眼中，这个盒子是神奇而又美好的。magic“神奇的，美好的”，符合语境。10A.pityBluckCpromi
58、seDchance答案B当盒子被打开，作者发现没那么走运，因为盒子里装的是一把破旧的傻里傻气的笤帚。luck“运气”，no such luck“没那么走运”。11A.sillyBcommonCclumsyDprecious答案A参见上题解析。此处silly感情色彩很浓，能表现出作者的失望、郁闷和不满。common“普通的”；clumsy“笨拙的”；precious“珍贵的”。12A.anxiousBhopefulCenjoyableDdisappointing答案D从“I got some nice gifts _ I didnt get the present that I really w
59、anted”可知，作者虽然得到了一些好礼物，但没有得到自己真正想要的礼物，因此这个圣诞节早晨既美好又令人失望(disappointing)。anxious“令人焦虑的”；hopeful“满怀希望的”；enjoyable“令人愉快的”。13A.andBbut CsoDwhile答案B参见上题解析。前后句为转折关系，故用but。14A.wrapping paperBdirtCfoodDwork答案A此处指的是清理完所有的(圣诞礼物)包装纸(wrapping paper)。15A.look forBpay forCtend toDthink about答案C由下文可知，父亲找借口说去仓库打理什么事情
60、，却取来了作者期盼已久的礼物。tend to“照料，办理”。16A.deliveringBshelteringCfixingDcarrying答案D父亲回来的时候，拿(carrying)着美丽的蹦蹦跷。deliver“递送，运送”；shelter“隐藏”；fix“安装”。17A.treatedBrewardedCpresentedDtricked答案D作者的父母为了在圣诞节给作者一个惊喜，故意用一把笤帚来骗(tricked)他。treat“对待，招待”；reward“奖赏”；present“赠送”。18A.embarrassedBexcitedCthankfulDastonished答案B作者
61、终于得到了想要的礼物，所以非常兴奋(excited)。若选thankful，则与下文意义不连贯。因为谜底已揭开，故astonished不符合语境。19A.reachBsightCsceneDdistance答案B作者如获珍宝，不让蹦蹦跷离开自己的视线(sight)。20A.abundanceBnumberCdiversityDtotal答案A尽管家庭困难，但是父母还是给了作者最重要的礼物满满的爱。an abundance of“许多，富足”符合语境。a number of“大量”；a diversity of“各种各样的”；a total of“合计”。.语法填空Worldfamous phy
