1-5 ABDAB 6-10 ADACA 11-15 ABDAD 16-20 BCABD

2．B and 连接两个并列谓语，把助动词提前，故根据语意应是 not tell 。
3．D 在报纸上应为 in 。
4．A 时间状语从句，意思是没有一个人来得及问我，我就冲出去了。
5．B 介词短语 in search of 在这里作目的状语。
6．A 根据上下文的语义语境，本句是作者描写当时自己的心情，又兴奋又紧张。
7．D as if 后面接的虚拟语气。而动作将要发生，所以应是 were going 相当于 would go
8．A 这里所要表达的意思是“穿过门”。 through 有穿门而过之意。
9．C 此句所要表达的意思是 : “如果你愿意……” 因此是条件状语从句，而条件状语从句用一般现在时代替一般将来时．故选 C 。
10．A 本句意思是：办公室的简朴的气候使我镇静下来。 calm 此处是动词意为使我平静下来．故排除了 B ， C ， D 三个答案。

举一反三

President Bush may talk about a plan to Mars, but Bruce Jones thinks there is still a healthy thirst for exploration into underwater worlds on our own planet. After growing up with a grandfather in the marine construction①business, Jones quickly got a feel for the water. He started diving at age 9 and, by the 1980s, began offering advice for those interested in the submarine②business. By 1993, he was running his own company, U.S. Submarines, which designs and builds submarines for others.
Jones has $40 million spent in building a hotel where the most expensive rooms will be 50 feet under the sea off Eleuthera Island in the Bahamas. Unlike the Jules Undersea Lodge — the only undersea hotel now, just off the coast of Key Largo, Fla. — guests at the Poseidon won’t need to put on a wet suit to their rooms. They also won’t need to worry about changing pressure levels since the rooms will be kept at above-surface pressure. Instead, they can move easily to their $1,500-a-night underwater rooms by escalator③.
“I think there are a large number of people who would be interested,” said Jones, “including anyone who is looking for a different experience.”
Each room will feature strong walls that look out onto coral④gardens. There will be controls in each room that guests can use to change the lighting of the underwater worlds outside their windows and to provide food to fish swimming just outside. It sounds exciting— but will it happen? It’s hard to say.
“By now I envisioned⑤we’d have whole underwater cities,” Cooper said. “It’s about time some of these visions became reality.”
Notes:
① marine construction 海洋建筑
② submarine adj. 海下的
③ escalator n. 自动梯
④ coral n. 珊瑚
⑤ envision v. 展望
1. The first paragraph takes President Bush for example in order to ______.
A. praise President Bush’s plan to Mars
B. humorously introduce the main subject to readers
C. support President Bush’s plan to Mars
D. show Bruce Jones is against President Bush’s plan
2. According to the text, who had a great effect on Bruce Jones?
A. His father. B. His friends. C. His grandfather D. His grandmother
3. According to Bruce Jones’s undersea hotel, we know that ______.
A. fish outside can be seen through the hotel’s walls
B. the hotel has been built and came into use
C. it will be easy to swim into the underwater rooms
D. visitors will have to wear wet suits against water
4. According to Cooper’s words, his attitudes towards the underwater hotels are ______.
A. disappointed B. critical C. objective D. hopeful

Perhaps we parents should stop trying to brainwash childrensintos 18 our taste in literature.After all children and adults are so 19 that we parents should not expect that they will enjoy the 20 books.So I suppose we"ll just have to compromise over that bedtime story.
