解析【小題1】答案：A 根據(jù)2空后的“there wouldn't be any birthday visitors”可知，Annie因?yàn)闆]有人為她過生日而感到有點(diǎn)孤獨(dú)(lonely)。
誤區(qū)警示：考生容易誤選alone。做好此題的關(guān)鍵在于正確地理解lonely和alone的區(qū)別。lonely表示“孤獨(dú)的，寂寞的”，帶有濃重的感情色彩；alone意為“獨(dú)自的，單獨(dú)的”，側(cè)重說明獨(dú)自一人，強(qiáng)調(diào)的是客觀事實(shí)。
【小題2】答案：B 作者給Annie購買禮物，暗示著Annie的家境不是很富裕。finances表示“財務(wù)情況”。
【小題3】答案：C 根據(jù)13空后的“The real fun was packing them to be sent.”可知，作者想給Annie寄(send)賀卡和禮物。
【小題4】答案：D Annie收到禮物自然會感到高興，brighten表示 “使快活起來”，符合語境。
【小題5】答案：C 作者想給Annie寄生日禮物，必然需要她的學(xué)校地址，因此選address。
【小題6】答案：A 下文講述了作者給Annie準(zhǔn)備禮物的過程，因此此處指作者有了一個主意(idea)。
【小題7】答案：B 作者想(thought)也許需要再多一點(diǎn)慶祝生日時的歡樂氛圍。
【小題8】答案：C 作者買了一些氣球、生日帽和其他的(other)新穎小巧而價廉的物品。
【小題9】答案：C 11空前的“making the recording”表明，作者是用錄音機(jī)(recorder)錄下人們的歌聲。
【小題10】答案：B 12空后的“so it really sounded like we had a party going on”暗示著人們?yōu)樗?sing)了生日快樂歌。
【小題11】答案：D 其他人發(fā)現(xiàn)(found out) 我們在做什么時也加入進(jìn)來。
【小題12】答案：A 作者本來請了三個人唱歌，結(jié)果其他人發(fā)現(xiàn)了也跟著一起唱。add表示“添加，增加”。
【小題13】答案：B 3空后的“a card and maybe a small gift”表明作者起初想買賀卡和禮物，因此選originally，表示“起初，原來”。
【小題14】答案：C 此空后的“it was like opening a mini birthday party”暗示作者在精心布置(arranged) 一切。
【小題15】答案：D 在把它們寄出去之前(before)的最后時刻作者又添加了一包紙杯蛋糕和一盒生日蠟燭。
【小題16】答案：A 文章開頭的“was away for her first semester at college”表明Annie在學(xué)校，因此選dormitory“寢室”
【小題17】答案：B 20空后的“it was the most fun birthday she would remember”表明Annie很高興(happy)。
【小題18】答案：C 作者很高興Annie有一些朋友可以與她一起分享(share)這特別的一天。
【小題19】答案：C 這是一個既容易又有趣的(fun)事情。fun意為“有趣的”；funny意為“使人發(fā)笑的，滑稽的”。
誤區(qū)警示：考生容易誤選funny。做好此題的關(guān)鍵在于正確地理解fun和funny的區(qū)別。fun除了作不可數(shù)名詞外，還可以作形容詞，意為“有趣的”，而funny意為“使人發(fā)笑的，滑稽的，奇異的”。
【小題20】答案：D Annie告訴(told) 作者這會是她能記住的最有趣的一個生日。
