Answer 1

答案：B;D;B;A;B;C;D;A;B;C;A;C;A;B;C;A;B;C;C;B
解析：

(1) 根據上句中的changing和本句中的good可推知，這里應選擇意思上與polite相對的單詞。

(2) 因為“一段時間＋before”常用于過去完成時，而ago常用于一般過去時。

(3) “for sb. to do sth.”是不定式的復合結構。

(4) “think of sb. as…”意為“把某人當做……”。

(5) when引導時間狀語從句，在這里表示“當……時”。before和after用在此處意思不通，用with則語法結構不正確。

(6) 因為too表示“也”時常用在句末，雖然too放在主語后的情況也有，但不如also常見，所以最佳答案是also。

(7) 英語在表達“在左邊、在右邊”時常用介詞on。

(8) matter常用于否定句或疑問句中，意為“有關系，要緊”。

(9) “What/How about…?”是固定句式，意為“……怎么樣？”

(10) 因為后面有復數名詞hands。

(11) 吃飯時只用一只手。

(12) 此句是選擇疑問句。

(13) 這里用動詞不定式作定語，意為“要記住的”。

(14) 用anything表示“任何使他人感到不舒服的事。”

(15) make，let，have等動詞后跟動詞不定式作賓語補足語時，常省略to。

(16) 這里表示“有一個關于……的故事”，這個故事并不是特指。

(17) 根據上下文，這里應用一般過去時的被動式。

(18) 首先從句法結構上應排除D項，而在表示“使用”的介詞中，in常表示使用原料等，with表示使用工具，by后常跟v.-ing形式或具有抽象意義的名詞。

(19) in the same way意為“同樣地”。

(20) 連系動詞feel后面常跟形容詞作表語。
