Many people are tidy both at home and at the office. Nowhere have I seen a 1 untidy office than my friend James'. Everywhere there are 2 and books. Not only does it seem never to be cleaned out, but also I do not think it is ever aired, for at 3 time have I seen any of the windows 4 . Often I have 5 James that he should open one, but each time he answered, "Not just now, Henry, later." Luckily I 6 to go there very often, nor do I stay there longer than I have to. Strangely enough, James is quite 7 outside his office. Only once have I seen him with a dirty collar, for example. He is usually well 8 . Nor is he careless about things like 9 . At no time has he been 10 to forget a party, and no sooner does he receive an invitation 11 he answers it. Unfortunately, his office is quite 12 run. Perhaps he does not like 13 work. In his garden in the evening and 14 weekends, James is happy. As soon as he 15 home from the office, he begins to work in the garden. Always he seems to have some work to do there, and nowhere in his garden 16 a corner which is not tidy or well 17 . Seldom have I seen prettier flowers, or healthier vegetables, or smoother, greener grass than in his 18 . Really I 19 he ought to have been a farmer, so 20 is he at such work. Dear friends, have you ever met a person like James? Or do you find him lovely?

试题答案

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

解析：

(1) no more than指"没有比……更……的了"，此处强调James的办公室是我见过最不整洁的。 (2) papers此处意为"文件"，与books都属办公室必需品。 (3) at no tithe意为"从不，决不"，相当于never。 (4) 由上文"I don't think it is ever aired"可知此处指"从来没看见窗户被打开过"。 (5) 因后面的从句使用了虚拟语气，故可排除其他选项。 (6) 由后半句中的nor可知本句也是否定句，don't have to意为"不必"，符合语境。 (7) 上文提到James的办公室很不整洁，此处用strangely一转，讲起他不在办公室时却很整洁。由下句也可知答案。 (8) be well dressed为固定表达，意为"穿着讲究"。 (9) 由下文"... to forget a part"可知，他对宴会邀请从不大意。 (10) 句意：决不会有人会得知他忘了宴会。 (11) no sooner... than...为固定搭配，意为"一……就……"。 (12) different为形容词；hardly不用quite修饰；easily与上下文意思不一致。故选B。 (13) such此处为形容词，such work在此表示" (整理办公室) 这种活儿"。 (14) 表示"在周末"应用介词at。 (15) get home"到家"；home为副词，其前不用介词。D项去掉at也正确。 (16) nowhere置于句首，主句应用倒装语序；there be结构中的be不能用其他动词代替。 (17) 表示"照看花园"，应用look after。look out"小心"；look at"看"；look for"寻找"。 (18) 由16空前的garden可推出答案。 (19) 此处表达主观看法，故用think。 (20) he good at为固定词组，意为"擅长……"。
