55、eminars and events.”可知，伦敦书展为与会者提供8号至10号为期三天的研讨会和活动。故选D。2B细节理解题。根据Earls Court Information中的“The Earls Court Business Centre offers a comprehensive range of business services，including”下的“Internet access”可知，The Earls Court Business Centre能使客户在互联网上工作。故选B。 3C细节理解题。根据“Visitors can access the visa letter
56、service only once they have registered for the London Book Fair online.”这部分可知，伦敦书展会为登记参展商和网上登记者提供这种签证服务。故C项正确。【语篇解读】本文探讨了英国幽默的特点及原因。4B细节理解题。由第一段的“Most people think humor is about happy things，but for the British，the opposite is true.”可知B项正确。5C词意猜测题。由词汇的语境可知，delusion应指“错觉，妄想”，故选C。6D细节理解题。由文章的第三段可知。7A
57、细节理解题。由最后一段可知。【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了卓别林的成就。8C细节理解题。从第一段中的hungry一词及“hoping to get work in show business”可判断出选C项。9D细节理解题。由第二段中的“His comedy doesnt depend upon words and languages.”可排除A项和C项，而B项在文章中未涉及。10D细节理解题。根据是第二段的最后两句话可知。11A标题归纳题。本文主要介绍了卓别林作为喜剧演员的成就。A项包含C项；B项和D项本身错误。【语篇解读】研究表明幽默在工作场所起着积极的作用。12A细节理解题。根据第一段内容可
58、知，跟没有或很少有幽默感的人相比，有幽默感的人能把工作做得更好。B、C、D三项在意思上和幽默感没有联系或者和本文的意思不符。13B推理判断题。根据第五段可知，在工作场合人们大都不太幽默，其主要原因是不知道幽默的积极效果。14C细节理解题。纵观全文，特别是第四段对幽默的作用的分析可以看出没有幽默或者不喜欢幽默的人更容易“忧虑”。15B标题归纳题。全文主要谈的是在工作场所幽默的积极作用，比如幽默可以使人减轻压力，可以使人有较好的工作效率等。.1620AGDCE.【语篇解读】作者通过自己做兼职服务生的经历告诉我们，和陌生人交流，既帮助别人，又快乐自己。21B句意：我大部分时间都用在工作上，很少和人谈
59、话。所以选work。22Atake orders意思是为客人端上所点的饭菜，这从上文I was a parttime waitress和下文I took his order可得到提示。23C根据常识可知，客人进饭店用餐前应该是先在餐桌旁就座seat oneself(某人)就座。下文的“sat at one of my tables”中也有同义词复现。24D句意：我注意到他每周都来，总是坐在我服务区的一张桌子旁。所以选notice，意思是：“注意到”。realize“意识到”；wonder“想知道”；understand“理解”。25B从下文我对他情况的了解可以看出，这里表达的意思是：慢慢地我开
60、始与他进行一些简短的谈话(conversation)。第一段有原词复现。examination“检查，考试”；preparation“准备”；competition“竞赛，比赛”。26D句意：他坚持要求我称他为Don。I call him Don一句中省略了should。order“命令”；believe“相信”；refuse“拒绝”。27C这里指的是在妻子去世后，他独自一人仍然保持着以前“gone to dinner and a movie every Saturday”。他妻子去世后，他“继续”着这种习惯。28A以前的谈话都是礼节性的，很简短。现在，“我”开始坐下来“真正地(actuall
61、y)”与Don进行谈话。29D根据后面一句“his son who had grown up and also served as a pilot in the army”可知，他在部队当过飞行员。30A从破折号后面的内容“going to school，my new boyfriend and the expectation of my future”可知，这是我的“壮志；抱负”，而不是“身份”，“职业”或“爱好”。31D根据上下文意“telling me that Don was in hospital”并结合生活常识可知，此处是指护士给我打来电话(a call)。32B他正在“遭受(ex
62、perience)”手术后并发症，其余三项不合搭配和文意。33A听到自己关心的人得了大病住院，只有“immediately”可以表达作者的急切心情。eventually“最后，终于”；frequently“频繁地”；deliberately“故意地”。34Curge sb.to do sth.“催促某人做某事”。从下文所述的情节“Don was_36_about chest pains and I gave him the number of a _37_I know.”可得到提示。35C一开始我并不知道他所指的“for_34_him to visit the doctor.”是什么事。ref
63、er to“指的是；提到”。36BDon 因为胸部疼痛而发出抱怨，符合常识。complain about“抱怨，发牢骚”。37A我给他提供了我认识的一个医生(doctor)的电话号码，劝他前去就诊。38B从文章第一句“I was a parttime waitress in Chicago.”可知答案。39D我和Don从陌生人(strangers)成为好朋友。40C现在我发现和饭店里的顾客谈话是一种享受。说明作者经历此事以后思想认识和性格都有了转变，同时也与第一段中的“I wasnt used to talking to unknown people except when taking or
64、ders.”首尾呼应。.41.saying 42.less43.but44.different45.themselves46.talking47.a48.is49.loudly50.where.My brother Ray and I were watching the TV when our cat Teega meowed at us before off down the hallway.We thought it a bit strange as she only usually meowed at meal times.，we followed her.I was well into
