dhoped答案：c从后面的几个问句来看，她对是否出现了问题还没有把握，故这只是她回到家时的一种“感觉”，觉得有点“反常”，但不能说是learn(得到)，find(发现)，更不能是hope(希望)。sense在此为动词，意为“觉察到，感觉到”。3a.sight bexhibitioncnote dsign答案：d从the back door and the windows were all locked及下文来看，此处应用sign，即没有人强行进入的迹象/痕迹(sign)。4a.watching bsearchingclooking dchecking答案：d从had anything been taken来看，她仍不知道是否丢失了东西，由此可推测此时只能是“核实”一下是否有丢失的东西，而不是注视着(watch)，搜查(search)或看(look)。5a.late bdinner cusual down答案：c由第1段第1句话知她每逢星期四下午就到女子俱乐部去，由此可推测在下星期四她又像往常一样出门了。at her usual time指在往常的时间，与往常一样。6a.open bback cfront dbroken答案：b为防止被贼看到，mrs.clake从后门偷偷地进了家门。前面已提到她已把门锁上了，故排除open。7a.drinking bmakingcpouring dplanting答案：b从下文的mrs.clarke raised the kettle and poured the water over the hand来看，此处说的是她正在沏茶(make tea)，并非是喝茶(drink tea)或倒茶(pour tea)或种茶(plant tea)。8a.saw bwatchedcheard dsmelled答案：c从上下文来看，贼在外面，mrs.clarke在里面，只能是听到外面letterbox被打开，而see，watch，smell都不合此时捉贼的情景。9a.wood bequipmentcchalk dwire答案：d从后面的a sharp cry was heard outside as the wire fell to the floor来看，此处说的是盗贼用铁丝作工具来行窃。10a.discovered bbroughtcraised dsupported答案：c前面说当出现动静时她正在沏茶，此处说的是她举起沏茶用的热水壶，然后把水浇在伸进来的那只手上。11a.soft bgentle csharp dloud答案：c她举起热水壶把开水浇在那只手上，由此可想象那人应是痛得尖叫起来，即a sharp cry。12a.pushed bputcstuck dfell答案：d由一声尖叫可推测，那只手被烫着了，由此可推断此处说的是铁丝掉到了地上。fall to the floor意为“掉到地上”。13a.walking bjumpingcrunning dsteady答案：c这是盗贼被冷不防遭到袭击后的反应：先是铁丝掉到了地上，接着把手缩回去，然后就逃跑了，故此处说的是她听到了逃跑的脚步声。14a.admired bencouragedcinstructed dsupported答案：amrs clarke凭借智慧捉到了小偷，自然在女子俱乐部受人羡慕/受到了赞扬。admire有“夸奖，赞扬”的意思。15a.selfsatisfaction bselfprotectioncselfrespect dselfservice答案：b结合全文，可知她这种做法是“自我保护”，故用selfprotection。.语法填空阅读下面短文，按照句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求，在空格处填入一个适当的词或使用括号中词语的正确形式填空，并将答案填写在标号为1625的相应位置上。the most universal facial expression

ease舒适；无拘无束。17truly后面的happy是一个形容词，故这里应填副词truly。18like本句意思为：世间有些笑容可能是虚假的，掩盖了其他的情感，像生气、恐惧和担心。故填like。19when/if语意：当/如果某人丢了脸，他笑着掩饰自己的尴尬。故填when/if。20however本句与上文存在转折关系，故填however。21the这里表特指，故填the。22unhappiness从后面的“or anger”可知，这里应填名词。从frowning(皱眉)可知，这里应填unhappiness。23showsshow在这儿作谓语，且是一般现在时，主语是单数概念，故填shows。24shakingor连续前后两个并列成分作主语，前面用了making a fist，提示后面也用ving形式。25another正在威胁另一个人。故填another。.阅读理解in most

an uncomfortable silence.that is why it is so common to make small talk when you are waiting for something.some people make small talk in order to be polite.you may not feel like chatting with anyone at party，but if someone introduces you to another person who you do not know anything about，you have to start some small talk in order to show a polite interest in getting to know that person better.there are certain “safe” topics that people usually make small talk about.the weather is probably the number one thing that people who do not know each other well discuss.sometimes even friends and family members discuss the weather when they meet or commence a conversation.another topic is current events.sports news is a very common topic，especially if a local team of players is doing extremely well or badly.entertainment news，such as a celebrity who is in town，is another good topic.if there is something that you and the other speaker have in common，that may also be acceptable to talk about.there are also some subjects that are not considered acceptable when you make small talk.discussing personal information such as salaries or a recent divorce is not done between people who
