答案

1-5BDDCC 6-10ACADA 11-15ABABA 16-20CCABD

　　

解析：

1. B。后文说明了这一信息。while, but 表示转折。

2. D。现在他还没有决定买什么礼物。

3. D。漂亮的礼物才能配得上漂亮的新娘。

4. C。have no idea how to do it 意为“不知道该怎么办”。

5. C。因为他很穷，所以他“没有多少钱”。

6. A。对于一个并不富裕的人来说，这应该是“太贵了”。

7. C。take off 意为“移开”。这句话是说他太喜欢这件东西了。

8. A。it 代替的是那个漂亮的花瓶。

9. D。他现在是作为一个未婚夫的身份买东西，故用 D。

10. A。注意本句的主句用过去完成时，这是说，当商店的经理问他的时候，他已经看了半个小时了。

11. A。听了他这种境遇，那位经理应该是感到同情 sorry。

12. B。an idea come to sb 意为“某人想起了一个主意”。

13. A。经理指给他看的是一个打碎的花瓶，他能不惊讶吗?

14. B。a vase broken into many pieces 意为“一个打碎的花瓶”。

15. A。wrap 意为“包起来”。从下文也能得知答案。

16. C。drop 带有“有意地扔下”之意。

17. C。这毕竟是一种欺骗，但却要表现得很“沉着”，才不致被人识破。

18. A。这件事是经过有意策划的(plan)，而不是按着它的自然发展而去预测的(expect)。

19. B。这位富家女儿的生日宴会一定是十分隆重的，可是端送礼物的仆人却把它掉在了地上，这无疑是破坏了当时的气氛，在场的人都会感到“生气”的。

20. D。只有用 each piece 才能清楚准确地说明其含义，即“每个碎片都给分别包了起来”，这就叫弄巧成拙。
