Question

My grandmother was an iron-willed woman, the feared head of the family. When I was five years old, she invited some friends to her apartment for a party.1the guests was a neighborhood big shot(大亨). They had a little girl about my age who was2 and very much used to getting her own way.
Grandmother spent a lot of time with the big shot and his family. She3 them the most important members of her social circle and tried hard to please them. At one point during the party, I4my way to the bathroom and closed the door behind me. A minute or two later, the little girl5the bathroom door and simply walked in. I was still sitting down. “Don’t you know that little girls aren't6to come into the bathroom when a little boy is using it!?” I shouted. The7I had piled upon her shocked the little girl. Then she started to cry. She tearfully8to her parents and my grandmother. Grandmother was waiting for me when I left the bathroom. I received the longest, sharpest9. After her scolding was over and I had been dismissed, the party10.
Twenty minutes later, all that changed. Grandmother walked by the bathroom and noticed a flood of water11out from under the door. She12the bathroom door and saw that the sink and tub were plugged(塞)up and that the taps13at full blast (擰到最大). Everyone knew who did it. The guests quickly formed a14wall around me, but Grandmother was15angry that she almost got to me anyway.
My grandfather took me16to the window. He was a kind and gentle man, full of wisdom and patience.17did he raise his voice to anyone, and never did he18 his wife. He looked at me with much curiosity,19 angry or upset.
“Tell me,” he asked, “why did you do it?”
“Well, she shouted at me20,” I said earnestly. “Now she's got something to shout about.”
Grandfather didn’t speak right away. He just sat there, looking at me and smiling. “Eric,” he said at last, “you are my revenge(復(fù)仇).”

這是一篇趣味性記敘文。作者通過一件小事描寫了祖母和祖父的兩個(gè)截然不同的處理方法以及祖父的幽默：在作者報(bào)復(fù)了祖母以后，祖父說“Eric，你幫我出氣了”。
1. B前文說她邀請(qǐng)了一些親戚朋友到公寓里聚會(huì)。此處表示：在這些客人中。
2. A因家里有錢以及下文的“習(xí)慣于我行我素”可知他們的小女兒被寵得非常嬌氣，脾氣很蠻橫。Spoil表示“寵壞，溺愛”。
3.D這里表示祖母認(rèn)為他們是最重要的客人，極力討好他們。
4. A晚會(huì)進(jìn)行中，我走進(jìn)了洗手間并隨手把門關(guān)上。這里用make one’s way to表示向…走去。而其他動(dòng)詞的含義不符合語境：B找到去…的路，C擠出一條路，D蜿蜒前進(jìn)。
5. B由and simply walked in可知那個(gè)小女孩推開洗手間的門進(jìn)來了。
6. C從語境可知這里用be supposed to表示should理應(yīng)做……；應(yīng)該做……。句意為：“難道你不知道當(dāng)一個(gè)男孩在使用洗手間的時(shí)候女孩子是不可以進(jìn)來的嗎�。�
7. D從上文內(nèi)容可知作者這個(gè)時(shí)候很生氣。
8. A本題用動(dòng)詞complain表示“投訴”，歷來我行我素的女孩出來沒有被人這么呵斥過，她哭著向她的父母和我奶奶告狀。
9. B當(dāng)我從洗手間出來，祖母劈頭蓋臉地把我罵了一通。
10. C等她罵完叫我滾開之后，晚會(huì)繼續(xù)進(jìn)行。這里用carry on表示“繼續(xù)”。
11. D從下文可知祖母發(fā)現(xiàn)有水從洗手間的門縫里涌出來。
12. A撞開洗手間的門，發(fā)現(xiàn)洗手盆和浴缸都被塞子塞住了。
13. B這里用過去進(jìn)行時(shí)表示祖母進(jìn)去的時(shí)候看見水正水正嘩啦啦地直流。
14.C每個(gè)人都知道是誰搞的鬼，憤怒的祖母使勁地?fù)]舞著雙手要打我，客人們馬上在我周圍形成了一堵人墻保護(hù)我。這里用protective表示“保護(hù)性的”。
15. A此處是so…that 句型，表示“如此憤怒，（盡管有人墻保護(hù)）差點(diǎn)打了我”。
16. B祖父牽著我的手來到窗前。表示牽著/抓著某人的手用介詞by +the +身體某部位。此處的the 不能用his, her, my代替。其他選項(xiàng)與句子意義不符。
17. D上文說祖父很溫和，因此他很少提高嗓門和別人說話。從句子結(jié)構(gòu)(倒裝)和語境看，只有D項(xiàng)符合語境。
18. A他也從來沒有和祖母吵架。
19. C由下文意義可知祖父的反映是：沒有半點(diǎn)生氣或煩惱的樣子。從搭配看B項(xiàng)不對(duì)。
20. B此處表示“祖母她先無緣無故地罵了我一頓”，這回我故意搗亂之后讓她罵就有理由了。
