2.B考查副詞詞義辨析。此處more更多；harder 更加努力；later后來(lái)；again再一次。父親65歲后就不在肉店工作了，就只剩下Joe一個(gè)人，所以他必須更加努力（harder）地工作。故選B。

3.A考查動(dòng)詞詞義辨析及語(yǔ)境理解。此處shut 關(guān)門； starte開(kāi)始；open開(kāi)門；serve服務(wù)。根據(jù)文意可知，他一周工作5天半，周日關(guān)門，周六最忙，所以只能是周四1點(diǎn)鐘開(kāi)始關(guān)門，半天不營(yíng)業(yè)。故選A。

4.D考查形容詞詞義辨析。此處hardest最難；easiest 最簡(jiǎn)單；quietest最安靜；busiest最繁忙。根據(jù)文意可知，周日不營(yíng)業(yè)，所以周六最繁忙（busiest）。故選D。

5.B考查名詞詞義辨析。此處customers客戶； meat肉；buyers 買者； friends朋友。Joe肉店里的肉（meat）是從最近的城鎮(zhèn)買來(lái)的。故選A。

6.C考查動(dòng)詞詞義辨析及語(yǔ)境理解。此處walk步行；flew 乘飛機(jī)；drove開(kāi)車；. ran跑。根據(jù)文意，他步行、跑著和乘飛機(jī)買肉，都不符合邏輯，所以開(kāi)車去買肉。故選C。

7.D考查形容詞詞義辨析。此處easier較簡(jiǎn)單的；fresher較新鮮的；nearer較近的； cheaper較便宜的。根據(jù)文意，他早上很早就開(kāi)車進(jìn)城買肉，就是為了買便宜的。本題易誤選B，合格的肉都應(yīng)該是新鮮的，所以B錯(cuò)誤。

8.A考查名詞詞義辨析。此處refrigerator冰箱；room 房間； kitchen廚房；cupboard櫥柜。根據(jù)文意可知，他的肉店應(yīng)該有一個(gè)大的冰箱，以防肉變壞。故選A。

9.A考查副詞詞義辨析。此處much 多； expensive 貴；fresh新鮮；adequate充裕的。根據(jù)文意可知，他有一個(gè)大的冰箱，所以他一次不買太多（too much）的肉，賣完之后再買新肉。故選A。

10.C考查動(dòng)詞詞義辨析。此處eat 吃；cook 烹調(diào)；sell賣；freeze冷凍。根據(jù)文意可知，他有一個(gè)大的冰箱，所以他一次不買太多的肉，賣（sell）完之后再買新肉。故選C。

11.A考查語(yǔ)境理解。根據(jù)文意可知，周四一點(diǎn)關(guān)門，正好一位婦女在一點(diǎn)差五分的時(shí)候來(lái)買肉，可以推知是在星期四。因?yàn)樾瞧谒囊稽c(diǎn)關(guān)門。故選A。

12.B考查名詞詞義辨析。此處party聚會(huì)；dinner餐；lunch午餐； dance跳舞。有幾個(gè)朋友打電話說(shuō)，他們今晚要來(lái)吃飯，我需要更多的肉。Come to dinner意為：來(lái)吃飯。

13.C考查名詞詞義辨析。此處food 食物；vegetable 蔬菜；meat 肉；fruit水果。根據(jù)文意可知，有幾個(gè)朋友打電話說(shuō)，他們今晚要來(lái)吃飯，我需要更多的肉。肉店里自然賣的是肉，故選C。

14.B考查副詞的用法。此處later 后來(lái)；earlier早些時(shí)候；quicker更快的；cheaper更便宜的。Joe只有一塊肉了，這天的早些時(shí)候把其他的肉都買了。根據(jù)句意選B。

16.A考查形容詞的用法。此處small小的；large大的；cheap便宜的；bad壞的。根據(jù)后文的Haven’t you got anything bigger?可知，用small，這是一對(duì)反義詞。

17.C考查介詞的用法及語(yǔ)境理解。此處outside外面；from 從……，由……； into進(jìn)入； through通過(guò)。他從肉店后面的房間走進(jìn)來(lái)，打開(kāi)冰箱。
