30、小偷能看到,将自行车还回来。没想到,“我”却收到了陌生人的善意和帮助。1.D由本段第一句“MybikewasstolenlastSaturday”以及“Leftwithalock.”可知,“我”很“难过(aheavyheart)”。2.B由“abigcardboardsign”以及“Tothepersonwhostolemybicycle.Bringitback”可知,“我”决定给小偷留张“便条(note)”。3.C由本句中的“Armedwithyellowpaint”以及下文中的“writingthesign”可知,“我”用家里的硬纸箱“制作了(made)”一个牌子。4.D由“Ineedit

31、togettowork”以及“Bringitback”可知,“我”“买不起(cantafford)”另一辆自行车。5.C由“ButIknewotherpeoplesbicycles.hadhappened”可知,“我”觉得写警告牌这个举动有些“愚蠢(foolish)”。6.A由本句中的“ButIknewotherpeoplesbicycleshadbeenstolenintheneighborhood”可知,“我”愿意将所发生的事“说出来(say)”。7.B由下文中的“mybikewasstolenontheweekend,sothesignwouldstayupuntilthenextwee

32、kend”可知,“我”让警告牌在大门口挂“七天(sevendays)”。8.A由下文中的“Ihadthisbike.touseit”可知,他扛着一辆“自行车(bike)”。9.C由本句中的“Ifiguredyoumightbeabletouseit”可知,“我”这辆自行车“闲置着(lyingaround)”。10.D由上文中的“Ihadthisbike.touseit”可知,他的“帮助(offer)”使“我”惊讶。11.A前后句之间表示转折关系,故用“但是(but)”。12.C由下文中的“Iaccepted.thekindness”可知,“我”改变主意不是因为这辆自行车,而是因为他很想“帮助(

34、y)”读懂警告牌。18.B此处表示如果“我”“找到(find)”一辆自行车的话,“我”给你拿过来。19.C“我”在大门口挂警告牌,希望小偷能看到,将自行车还回来。没想到,却收到了陌生人的善意和帮助,故这个警告牌在“改变着(changing)”情况。20.D结合整篇文章以及第二段中警告牌的内容,此处表示“我”只是“将心中所想说出来(openingmyselfup)”,却收到如此多的善意。三、第一句:workswork第二句:differencedifferent第三句:taketaking第四句:andbut;aboutwith/to第五句:去掉was;usme第六句:normalnormally;hadhave第七句:few前加a
