详解详析
本文作者与众不同,不喜欢生日晚会,尤其是为自己举行的生日晚会,并且讲述了自己上大学的时候一次
朋友为自己过生日的不愉快经历。
1.
C这是一种让步的说法。意思是说,作者对生日晚会不感兴趣,至少（at least）是不喜欢为自己举行的生日晚会。
2.
A作者进一步强调自己对别人的生日晚会还是欣赏的。
3.
Bjust是“就”的意思,加强语气,符合语境,而其他词意思都不恰当。
4.
C下文是回忆朋友为自己过生日的一次经历,所以选C。
5.
Afor在此处是“为了”的意思,符合语境。
6.
C作者强调自己当时确实告诉过最好的朋友Henry不想要生日派对。
7.
D根据上下文可知,作者不喜欢party。
8.
B朋友当时答应自己不搞party的。
9.
D朋友违背了诺言,所以作者后悔不该相信他。know sth. better意为“更好地了解”。
10.
Bfrom school意为“放学”,符合语境。
11.
Cas usual是固定短语,意为“像平常一样”(走进浴室……)。
12.
Cwhen有“就在这时”的意思,表示一种意外的情况,符合语境。
13.
A该句意思是说,有人(知道作者的习惯)躲在浴帘(curtain)后想给作者意外惊喜。
14.
A指人说话、唱歌的声音要用voice。
15.
BA、C、D都是及物动词,而且它们的意思用在此处也不妥。
16.
A为了给作者惊喜,朋友们都躲（hide）了起来。
17.
C朋友们要想进宿舍当然得有钥匙,但是不可能跟作者要,所以只能是从作者的室友那儿得来。
18.
D这是朋友们瞒着作者搞的一场计划,所以选D最符合语境。
19.
C根据上文可知,朋友们是唱着歌从躲藏的地方出来的。
20.
Aupset有“扰乱，打乱”的意思,符合语境,而ruin用得太严重了,还不至于,C、D则明显不对。
Where there is life, there is hope.
留得青山在，不怕没柴烧。
