1．A.fed　　　　　　　　 　B．served

C．watched D．welcomed

解析：选B　作者一家人去麦当劳吃早餐，所以是排队买吃的东西，等着得到招待。

2．A.run B．look

C．back D．take

解析：选C　从下文知，这两个流浪汉身上有股难闻的味道，所以大家往后退，避之不及。

3．A.why B．where

C．when D．how

解析：选A　作者转过身想看个究竟，大家为什么会纷纷让开。

4．A.rare B．familiar

C．different D．horrible

解析：选D　因为是“dirty body” smell，当然非常难闻。

5．A.short B．poor

C．polite D．rude

解析：选B　既然是homeless，当然是 poor。

6．A.at B．upon

C．for D．in

解析：选A　由第17空前可知，离作者近的第一个人很矮，所以向下看，故用look down at。look down upon sb.意为“看不起某人”，从后文知作者是个善良的人，故不合文意。

7．A.brother B．friend

C．neighbour D．assistant

解析：选B　由全文可知，这是两个相依为命的流浪汉，所以选B。

8．A.mentally B．physically

C．completely D．partly

14．A.frowned B．whispered

C．smiled D．shrugged

解析：选C　作者是在跟女服务员买东西，所以当然是有礼貌地对对方“微笑”。shrug意为“耸肩”。

15．A.clean B．big

C．same D．separate

解析：选D　另两份早餐是买给那两个流浪汉的，所以叫服务员分开放在另外一个盘子上。

16．A.resting B．eating

17．A.thin B．black

C．dirty D．cold

解析：选D　这是一个寒冷的冬天的早晨，他们来麦当劳借买杯咖啡想暖和下身子，所以可推知此时他的手冰冷。若依前文“’dirty body’smell”就说他的手此时很脏，武断片面。

18．A.fears B．tears

Ⅴ.短文改错

Dear Mike，

This summer I will go to study at the London University, but I don't know how to adapt myself for the new life.

I hear that many freshmen are at loss what to do when they are in a new country.Feel lonely and homesick, they find it much harder to get use to the new culture, diet and climate.Most of them can't take well care of themselves in their everyday life.Beside，it is difficult to find a satisfied host.It is more difficult to fully understand what the teachers teach in class though they speak English all the time.

Could you tell me how to deal with these problem so that I will be able to suit the university life in the future?

Yours，
