teacher，所以应选b项。答案：b4解析：从下文的her desk可知，老师把我们带到讲桌边，讲桌应在教室前面，故b项最佳。答案：b5解析：从上文on one side of her desk可推知我站到那个同学对面，即讲桌的另一边，应是the other side。答案：a6解析：从下文obviously和文意可知，从我这边，很清晰地看到那是黑色，故选择clearly。答案：c7解析：从black和white可知，老师在问我们物体的颜色。答案：c8解析：从上下文可知，当(when)从我的一边看黑色时，我的同学看到的是白色，所以a项when符合文意。答案：a9解析：从文意和上文的argument可知，我们不同意对方意见，又开始争吵。答案：b10解析：从上下文知道，站在对方的位置，物体为白色。答案：b11解析：由下文from
