12、ve much, but I asked them to do their best: “Every little bit will help.”体现出来。4D星期二晚上发生火灾，星期四晚上搞募捐比赛，募捐比赛是在火灾后两天举行的。5C推理判断题。作者原以为大学生没什么东西可捐，对他们的捐献本没抱多大的期望。但捐献现场的气氛却是那样热烈，这大大出乎其意料，所以感到“惊讶”是很自然的。本段最后一句中的 “astonished” 对此题也可起到提示和印证的作用。【2014高考英语模拟题】Stop-over in Stratford-upon-AvonThe easy way to book you
