【解析】

1.1】答案　B　[從下文“about ten years ago...”我們可以得知，叔叔有這把雨傘已有10 年了。]

2.2】答案　B　[“某物花某人多少錢(qián)”用sth cost sb some money。]

3.3】答案　C　[從下文得知，這把雨傘是叔叔白撿的，因此一分錢(qián)也沒(méi)花。其他選項(xiàng)均有一定干擾性，聯(lián)系上下文我們可知這些選項(xiàng)不合題意。]

4.4】答案　A　[when在這里相當(dāng)于and then(就在這時(shí))。]

5.5】答案　C　[因?yàn)闆](méi)有雨衣和雨傘“我”才在doorway躲雨，其他選項(xiàng)均不合題意。]

6.6】答案　B　[“沒(méi)有汽車(chē)跑這條街”。其他選項(xiàng)均有干擾性，說(shuō)汽車(chē)跑這條路線一般用run。]

7.7】答案　C　[“我”不想被淋濕，是“我”站在doorway等雨停的原因。]

8.8】答案　A　[it grew wet搭配不正確，在這里作者并非說(shuō)時(shí)候晚了，而是說(shuō)天黑了，從下文“I stepped out of the dark doorway”可知答案。]

9.9】答案　B　[最后，一位年輕人出現(xiàn)了。]

10.10】答案　C　[選項(xiàng)B、D有較大干擾性，carry有“隨身攜帶”的意思，但不可表示“舉著”，lift意思是“向上舉”，不表示狀態(tài)，因此，B、D兩項(xiàng)不合題意。]

11.11】答案　A　[“我希望他能讓我與他一起走到下一個(gè)轉(zhuǎn)彎處”。let后跟不帶to的不定式作賓補(bǔ)，因此B項(xiàng)不合題意。]

12.12】答案　B　[where引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句，修飾corner。B、D兩項(xiàng)有較大干擾性，在街道拐角處用at the corner，因此引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句時(shí)應(yīng)用at which。]

13.13】答案　B　[“我”從doorway走出來(lái)。]

14.14】答案　C　[因?yàn)槭钦?qǐng)求別人的幫助，因此“我”說(shuō)“Excuse me”。]

15.15】答案　D　[從下文的“the young man (dropped) the umbrella which I am afraid，he had just stolen，ran away，and (disappeared) into the darkness”可知，這個(gè)年輕人害怕了。]

16.16】答案　C　[因?yàn)楹髞?lái)“我”撿起了雨傘，顯然他是把雨傘扔下了。]

17.17】答案　A　[從該空后的into the darkness可知答案。]

18.18】答案　C　[“我”原來(lái)是在半路躲雨，現(xiàn)在“我”又繼續(xù)前行。]

19.19】答案　D　[在這么大的城市找一把傘的主人是沒(méi)有希望的。]

20.20】答案　A　[ever since等于ever since then，意思是“從那時(shí)起”。]
