　　【主旨大意】 搬進新居的母子倆深夜彈奏鋼琴以示慶祝，不料引起鄰居的不滿。兒子達里奧想到一個主意：何不邀請鄰居來家做客，盛情接待？此舉果然奏效，鄰居紛紛攜禮物前來，甚至有人贈送他們一本肖邦的音樂書。一場鄰里矛盾因為彼此的尊重和包容而輕松化解。

　　1．【答案】A

　　【解析】 此句意為：那天晚上，母子倆并排坐在鋼琴前。下文說到他們彈奏音樂，結合常識此處應該是坐(sat)在鋼琴旁。stand意為“站立”，lie意為“躺；位于”，walk意為“行走”，均不符合語境。

　　2．【答案】C

　　【解析】由前句他們彈奏爵士樂可知，此處是說高聲的音樂(music)充滿整個房間。voice意為“說話聲”，ring意為“鈴聲；鐘聲”，cry意為“哭聲；叫喊”，均不符合語境。

　　3．【答案】B

　　【解析】根據空后的“their happiness disappeared”與前段中的“made them feel very happy”可知，上下文之間是轉折關系，故選however，意為“然而，但是”。therefore意為“因此，所以”；otherwise意為“否則”；instead意為“相反”。根據上下文語境可知選B項。

　　4．【答案】A

　　【解析】根據第七段中“So I wrote a short note.”可知此處應選note，為原詞復現。poster 意為“海報；招貼畫”，bill意為“賬單”，report意為“報道；報告”，均與文意不符。

　　5．【答案】D

　　【解析】根據空前的but和空后的“he couldn't imagine any of them had done that”可知，管理員認為鄰居們都是友善的人。proud意為“驕傲的”；rich意為“富有的”；lucky意為“幸運的”；nice意為“友善的”。根據語境可知應選D項。

　　6．【答案】D

　　【解析】上文提到是鄰居抱怨他們，此處兒子應是建議給鄰居們(neighbors)寫道歉信。friend意為“朋友”，relative意為“親戚”，audience意為“聽眾；觀眾”，均不符合語境。

　　7．【答案】D

　　【解析】此句意為：也許“我們”可以親自去拜訪每一個人。blame意為“責備”；instruct意為“教導，指導”；question意為“質問，詢問”；visit意為“拜訪”。根據語境可知應選D項。

　　8．【答案】A

　　【解析】 此句意為：如果“我們”邀請他們來這兒參加聚會，又會怎么樣呢？由下文中的party lights以及“Finally, the day of the party…”可知應選A項。

　　9．【答案】B

　　【解析】上文達里奧提出辦一個聚會，下文他們確實辦了聚會，由此可知此處是說他們都喜歡這個主意。experience意為“經歷；經驗”；idea意為“想法，主意”；performance意為“表演；表現”；action意為“行為；行動”。根據上下文語境可知應選B項。

　　10．【答案】C

　　【解析】 此句意為：在接下來的幾天里，他們發了請柬并為客人準備了甜點。prepare…for…意為“為……準備……”，for在此處表示對象。

　　11．【答案】B

　　【解析】 此句意為：終于，聚會的這天到了。由finally和下文內容可知，此處是說他們準備的聚會來到了(arrived)。continue意為“繼續”；pass 意為“經過；過去”；finish意為“完成”，均不符合語境。

　　12．【答案】C

　　【解析】客人們帶甜點來參加聚會，應該是為了分享(share)，而不是為了售賣(sell)和做廣告(advertise)，更與訂購(order)無關。故選 C項。

　　13．【答案】B

　　【解析】此句意為：吉爾伯特夫人贈給達里奧的媽媽一本肖邦的鋼琴音樂書。present sb.with sth.意為“贈送某人某物”，為固定搭配，故選B項。treat sb.with sth.意為“用某物招待某人”，help sb.with sth.意為“幫助某人做某事”，serve sb.(with) sth.意為“用某物招待某人”，均與文意不符。

　　14．【答案】D

　　【解析】由前句“鋼琴聲把我吵醒了”可知，此處吉爾伯特夫人是擔心(worried)他們會每天晚上這樣彈奏。promise 意為“承諾；答應”；admit意為“承認”；agree意為“同意”。

　　15．【答案】D

　　【解析】 根據上文可知母子倆想要和鄰居道歉，可知此處表示欠鄰居一個道歉。owe sb.sth.是固定搭配，意為“欠某人某物”。

　　16．【答案】A

　　【解析】 此句意為：“我”沒有意識到“我們”彈鋼琴的時候是那么晚了。realize意為“認識到，意識到”，符合語境。remember意為“記得”；understand意為“理解，懂得”；accept意為“接受”。

　　17．【答案】D

　　【解析】 根據上文的“Just not so loud at night.”可知，此處吉爾伯特夫人是說這些歌曲不太吵。故選loud。

　　18．【答案】C

　　【解析】由前面提到的“beautiful music”可知，達里奧的媽媽是說將會很高興(happy)能在晚上演奏這些音樂。

　　19．【答案】B

　　【解析】 此句意為：他已經期待著能練習這些新樂曲了。結合語境可知，拿到新的音樂書，達里奧當然想要練習或者演奏了。practice意為“練習；實踐”，符合語境。

　　20．【答案】C

　　【解析】 根據空后的“made him feel that they were home at last”可知，此處是說達里奧感到溫暖。equality 意為“平等”；freedom意為“自由”；warmth意為“溫暖”；sympathy 意為“憐憫；同情”。根據語境可知應選C項。

　　This Way to Dreamland

　　Daydreaming means people think about something pleasant, especially when this makes them forget what they should be doing.Daydreamers have a bad reputation for being unaware of what's happening around them.They can seem forgetful and clumsy.__1__ They annoy us because they seem to be ignoring us and missing the important things.

　　But daydreamers are also responsible for some of the greatest ideas and achievements in human history.__2__ Can you imagine what kind of world we would have without such ideas and inventions?

　　So how can you come up with brilliant daydreams and avoid falling over tree roots or otherwise looking like a fool?

　　First, understand that some opportunities (機會) for daydreaming are better than others.Feeling safe and relaxed will help you to slip into daydreams.__3__ And if you want to improve your chances of having a creative idea while you're daydreaming, try to do it while you are involved in another task—preferably something simple, like taking a shower or walking, or even making meaningless drawings.

　　It's also important to know how to avoid daydreams for those times when you really need to concentrate.“Mindfulness”， being focused, is a tool that some people use to avoid falling asleep.__4__

　　Finally, you never know what wonderful idea might strike while your mind has moved slowly away.__5__

　　Always remember that your best ideas might come when your head is actually in the clouds.

　　A．Having interesting things to think about also helps.

　　B．They stare off into space and wander by themselves.

　　C．Without wandering minds, we wouldn't have relatively, Coke or Post-it notes.

　　D．At one time, daydreaming was thought to be a cause of some mental illnesses.
