9、usted ( ) 19. A. thought B. stated C. announced D. suggested ( ) 20. A. imagining B. preparing C. examining D. describing 120: BACCD, DABCD, DCBDB, ADCDA注：1. Fill infor sb.意为：临时替代某人 2. 因为我以前没有做过，所以我会搞砸的。 3. 我担心不是赚钱，而是亏本。 4. 母亲说：你能行的，况且要到中午才有生意 5. good with 意为：在。方面有本事。也就是说作者做买卖不太会算数。 6. 本句意思应该是：别让我去做

10、吧。为省略句，Dont make me do it. 7. 作者认为母亲要他去替班不是一个好主意。其他意义和搭配都不通。 8. 虽然觉得不好，但还是听从了母亲的安排。 9. 次日我到店里时，发现完全不是母亲所说的“要到中午才有生意”，下一句说明生意红火，所以说“母亲错了”。 10. 因为初来上班，没有经验，所以，开始的时候，应付不过来。At (the) least至少，at last 终于，at (the) most至多 11. 从上下文可知：购买的队伍越来越长，而我有业务不熟，动作缓慢，所以等待的人群好像不耐烦了。其他语义不通。 12. break sth. into pieces 把。摔得

11、粉碎。其他词没这个搭配。 13. 母亲看到我手忙脚乱，便过来帮我。 14. 根据下句及52空后，这里应该是母亲还教我怎么找零钱.注意：make change (for) 是找零钱的意思，make a change 是做出更改的意思。Make money赚钱， make coffee 冲咖啡，和上下文无关。 15. 因为53.5=1.75, 所以要找对方的钱数恰好就是：30.25（quarter）+1=1.75 16. 自那以后，事情就更加顺利了。Go smoothly进展顺利 17. add up bill 把帐清理好（加起来），turn in 上缴、上交，count out不把。计算在内，

12、take over移交，这些表达都和上下文不连贯，本句是说明作者一天下来学到了很多东西：菜单记得了，打单、找零都很快了。 18. 对于没开始做生意的作者来说，没有生意当然好（所以母亲开始给作者打气时就说“要到中午才有生意”）免得出错。但一天下来，作者已是熟练了，所以，当太阳出来，生意差了时，他甚至感到有点沮丧。Discouraged指遇到困难等事（气馁），disturbed受到扰乱 19. 只有suggest的从句才用(should) do,其他没有这种结构。 20. 对未来的想象【阅读理解】社会生活类In 1986，when Carlo Petrini first coined the te

22、ironmental stewardshipthe actions people take to respect the rights of all living things and all environments”可知，环境管理(environmental stewardship)的内容就是“破折号”后的解释，即“人们尊重所有生物和环境的权利的行动”，故D项正确。3D细节理解题。从第三段可知，“慢食物运动”的特色就在于改善饮食者的饮食质量；不对人类健康和环境卫生产生副作用；给食物供应商以合理的报酬。D项则没有提到，故答案选D项。4B推理判断题。从最后一段David Prior所说的话可知

23、，他认为当前的食物系统很糟糕，需要改进，所以他的态度应该是不满意的(unsatisfied)。A项表示“怀疑的”；C项表示“漠不关心的”；D项表示“支持的”，都不符合语境。阅读理解。As the railroads and the highways shaped the American West in the past centuries, a new electrical generating（发电）and transmission（输送）system for the 21stcentury will leave a lasting mark on the West, for better
