12、in the business world, who had his connections, his circle of acquaintances, and his close friends. So it seemed as though the childrens ball was merely an excuse for the parents to come together and discuss matters of interest to themselves, quite innocently and casually. I was an outsider, and, as
13、 I had no special matters to express, I was able to spend the evening independently of the others. There was another gentleman present who had just stumbled upon (偶然遇到) this affair of domestic happiness, just like me. He was the first to attract my attention. His appearance was not that of a man of
14、noble birth. He was tall, rather thin, very serious, and well dressed. Obviously he had no heart for the family celebration. The moment he went off into a corner by himself, the smile disappeared from his face, and his thick dark brows knitted into a frown. He knew no one except the host and showed
15、every sign of being bored to death, though bravely keeping the role of thorough enjoyment to the end. Later I learned that he was a provincial, had come to the capital on some important business, had brought a letter of recommendation to our host, and our host had taken him under his protection, not
16、 at all with love. It was merely out of politeness that he had invited him to the childrens ball. They did not play cards with him. They did not offer cigars. Thus, my gentleman, not knowing what to do with his hands, spent the evening stroking his whiskers (胡须). His whiskers were really fine, but h

19、terest to themselves, quite innocently and casually.”可知，在作者看来，孩子们的舞会仅仅是家长们聚在一起讨论他们感兴趣的事情的借口，故选B。2Why was the gentleman unhappy? AHe was one of the poor relatives of the host. BHe was from the countryside. CHe was trying to do some business with the host. DHe was not really welcome in the ball.答案：D推理

21、leman touched his whiskers eagerly just because _.Ahe liked his whiskers very much Bhe had the habit of doing so Che was embarrassed in the ball Dhe felt uneasy wearing whiskers答案：C推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Thus, my gentleman, not knowing what to do with his hands, spent the evening stroking his whiskers (胡须)”
22、可知，因为整个晚上没有人理他，(这位先生)不知道手该干些什么，所以一个晚上都在抚摸自己的胡子。由此可推断他是多么的尴尬，故选C。4When the author was telling the story, he was _.Ahumorous Bserious Cjoking Ddoubtful答案：B推理判断题。通读整篇文章，可以看出作者在讲故事时是严肃的，故选B。(2019全国卷)Marian Bechtel sits at West Palm Beachs Bar Louie counter by herself, quietly reading her ebook as she wa
