45、”。51B分析语境可知,此处答案选B。recall“回想”。52C从“Dont do that any moreyour hands are too rough!”可推知,答案选C。其他选项均不符合句意。53Aforgive and forget“不念旧恶,不记仇”。54C依据全文语境可知,答案选C,appreciation“感激”。pleasure“愉快”;attitude“态度”;attention“注意”,均不符合语境。55D此处意为“多年来怀有的愧疚感再也没有了”。依据句意可知,答案选D。第三部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从
