As Christmas is coming, there are presents to be sent, and rooms to be cleaned. Parents are 1 with difficult jobs of hiding presents from 2 young children. If the gifts are large, this is sometimes a real 3 . On Christmas Eve, young children find the 4 almost unbearable. They are torn between the wish to 5 up late so that they Mil not miss the fun. The wish for gifts usually proves stronger. But though children go to bed early, they often lie 6 in bed for a long time, hoping to get a short 7 at Father Christmas.

　　Last Christmas, my wife and I 8 managed to hide a few large presents in the store room I 9 the moment when my son, Jimmy, would ask me where the new bike had come from, but 10 he did not see it.

　　On Christmas Eve, it took the children hours to go to deep. It must have been nearly 11 when my wife and I went quietly into their room and began 12 stockings. Then I 13 in the bike for Jimmy and left it beside the Christmas tree. We know we would not get much 14 that night, for the children were sure to get up early. At about five o'clock the next morning, we were 15 by loud sounds coming from the children's room--they shouted excitedly! 16 I had time to get out of bed, Jimmy came 17 into our bedroom on his new bike and his sister, Mary, 18 close behind, pushing her new baby carriage. Even the baby arrived, he moved on the 19 and knees into the room dragging a large balloon behind him. Suddenly it burst. That woke us up 20 . The day had really begun with a bang.

Answer 1

答案：A;B;C;B;A;D;C;D;A;C;B;A;C;B;A;D;C;B;A;B
解析：

(1) be faced with“面臨，面對”。 (2)curious“好奇的”，年輕人或孩子對一切都感到好奇，所以此處用curious最恰當(dāng)。 (3) problem指較大的問題，麻類。 (4) 該句的意思是：孩子們發(fā)現(xiàn)這種即將得到禮物的興奮勁是難以忍耐的，即他們想立刻得到禮物。 (5) stay up“熬夜，挺得住，不倒塌”。在此處的意思是“熬夜”，父母一般要在夜里等離子們都睡著之后再去放禮物，所以孩子們想熬夜來親自體會這種興奮。 (6)awake在此作形容詞“醒著的” 解。如：One woman was lying in bed, awake, listening to the rushing winds.一位婦女躺在床上，沒有睡著，靜聽著那急急的風(fēng)聲。 (7) A、B和C項都和at構(gòu)成固定的短語，但有區(qū)別。A項stare at指“長時間盯著……看”，在此不合語境；B項glare at是“怒目而視”的意思，在此也不合語境；此處用了short一詞，故選C。 (8) successfully是副詞。 (9) fear此處指“擔(dān)心，害怕”。 (10) but表轉(zhuǎn)折，因此用fortunately“幸運地”一詞。 (11) 根據(jù)上下文語境，此處用midnight最恰當(dāng)。 (12) filling“向……裝……”作began的賓語。此處指開始向襪子里裝禮物。 (13) push推。 (14) 此處用名詞sleep作get的賓語。該句的意思是：這已是深夜，孩子們又快醒了，我們睡覺的時間不會太長。 (15) woken是過去分詞，指被孩子們的聲音給吵醒了。 (16) before在此作連詞，意思是“還沒來得及……就……”。如：①He fell asleep before I could take off his clothes.我還沒來得及把他的衣服脫掉他就睡著了。②He asked a second question before I could answer the first one.我還沒來得及回答第一個問題，他又問了一個問題。 (17) riding on his new bike“騎著新自行車”是個現(xiàn)在分詞短語作伴隨狀語或方式狀語。如： ①He came here running all the way.他是一路小跑到這兒來的。②They went out of the classroom, talking and laughing.他們又說又笑地走出了教室。 (18) follow指“跟隨，跟著”。 (19)“move on the hands and knees”,因年齡較小所以進(jìn)來時手腳并用。 (20) completely“完全地，徹底地”，該句的意思是：這一響聲使我們完全醒了。
