解析【小題1】B 上一句中提到寫作任務(wù)要求作者在三個月內(nèi)游歷歐洲，由此可知作者以前曾經(jīng)“出國”幾次。A項表示“在（船、車、飛機）上”，顯然不符合語境。
【小題2】A 根據(jù)本句中的but可知雖然作者有過出國的經(jīng)歷，但是不能“聲稱”自己知道整個歐洲大陸的路線，此處claim表示“聲稱，宣稱，斷言”。后三項分別表示“宣布”“希望”“否認”，均不符合語境。
【小題3】 D 上面提到的是作者對整個歐洲大陸的路線不太熟悉，此處敘述的是作者的外語存在的問題，二者之間顯然是遞進關(guān)系，所以用moreover而且。
【小題4】 C 作者的外語知識僅僅“局限于”在大學期間學習的一點法語。limit…to…意為“把……限制在……”。
【小題5】 B 根據(jù)下一句中的內(nèi)容可知作者就是接受這個任務(wù)“猶豫不決”。此外，第28空前面也有線索提示。A項意為“辭職”；C項意為“發(fā)抖”；D項意為“懷疑”，都與下一句中的內(nèi)容不符。
【小題6】 D 作者不會說歐洲的語言，“遠遠不”熟悉當?shù)氐牡乩砗徒煌顩r。far from表示“遠非”。前三項分別表示“非�！薄俺觥薄俺恕狻�，均與語境不符。
【小題7】C 第一段的第一句提到作者在歐洲游歷是寫作任務(wù)的需要，再結(jié)合本句中的conduct interviews(進行采訪)可知是要進行“調(diào)查”。
【小題8】 A 按人之常情，每個人都喜歡周游世界，可是作者考慮到自身的實際條件，感覺不可能完成這項任務(wù)，所以十分“遺憾”地準備回信拒絕。
【小題9】 D 此處與第一段第一句中的a writing assignment相呼應(yīng)，表示作者坐下來寫信拒絕這次“任務(wù)”。另外，本段最后一句也有線索提示。
【小題10】 B 作者把信寫到一半的時候，腦海中浮現(xiàn)出一個“想法”：如果你不嘗試，就無法學到知識。A項意為“反應(yīng)”；C項意為“意義”；D項意為“沖突”，都不符合語境。
【小題11】 C 作者本想拒絕這次的任務(wù)，可是有了上述想法后，就“接受”了任務(wù)。A項意為“ 完成”；B項意為“收到”；D項意為“抵制”，顯然都不正確。
【小題12】 D 由下文可知作者在歐洲游歷期間有一些不好的“經(jīng)歷”。前三項分別意為“交換”“條件，狀況”“旅行”，都不符合語境。
【小題13】A 哪怕是去最“遙遠”的地方，沒有導游，“甚至”沒有預訂，作者也會毫不猶豫地前往。后三項分別意為“可使用的”“有趣的”“擁擠的”，在文章中都沒有信息支持。
【小題14】C 解析參見上題。
【小題15】B 自從上次的寫作任務(wù)后，作者對自己充滿了信心，認為自己“能夠做到”。假如選擇C項，需要在后面加上it。
【小題16】 B 根據(jù)定義，陌生而又不同的事物幾乎“讓人恐懼”。A項意為“令人震驚的”；C項意為“迷人的”；D項意為“令人激動的”。
【小題17】 C 但是你每次嘗試之后，都會有所收獲，隨著學識的“積累”，世界將會為你敞開。A項意為“被提及”；B項意為“露面”；D項意為“提高，增加（數(shù)量、速度等）”，都不符合語境。
【小題18】 D 作者嘗試的是新奇的事物，所以乘坐“熱氣球”從萊茵河上升起最能體現(xiàn)作者的這種心理。
【小題19】 D 作者之所以這么做并不是因為比別人勇敢或者膽大，而是把擔心看作是一種“挑戰(zhàn)”。
【小題20】 A 作者相信自己能夠“創(chuàng)造”奇跡，work wonders意為“創(chuàng)造奇跡”。

Yesterday, I met a delightful woman at a work event. As we talked, she told me about her in Manila, Philippines. She spoke about the her culture values their elders,and she explained that children are from the time of birth to respect and people older than themselves.
It was to hear that,so I enjoyed listening and learning. Here is her memory I found so beautiful:
When she was growing up, her father had three jobs to his family. She said her dad never , and though he worked very hard, he always had for them. One day, her father was at his full-time job. For several months, he was mailed temporary disability checks he was recovering.

He told them that he had two good legs and arms, and did not need this money. He told them to give the money to people who could not work, to people who needed it.

Lowering her voice, she said she would never forget what he did, and what an and influential mentor(導師) he was on how to live a life.
