答案及解析

1. C。從下文的continue into June可判斷應(yīng)該是五月份。

2. D。從下文Henry考試的情況以及上文的A？鄄level（Advanced level） exams可判斷。

3. B。注意這里是被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)，只有offer才符合語(yǔ)境。如果是主動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)，D項(xiàng)成立。

4. D。這是大學(xué)入學(xué)報(bào)名，A、B、C三項(xiàng)顯然不對(duì)。D項(xiàng)“選擇”當(dāng)然可以是大學(xué)的選擇。

5. A。his second choice的要求相對(duì)低些，“僅僅”是一個(gè)B、兩個(gè)C。

6. A。根據(jù)語(yǔ)境，這里應(yīng)是“挑選”。

7. D。interview（面試）符合語(yǔ)境。

8. D。根據(jù)語(yǔ)境，這里當(dāng)然是考試“結(jié)果”。

9. C。do well：成功，干得出色。從下文可知道，Henry得到3個(gè)C顯然是不算成功。

10. C。will表示意愿，其他選項(xiàng)與上下文的時(shí)態(tài)不合。

11. D。從下文可知，Henry終于在Wales找到一個(gè)學(xué)習(xí)computing的位置，副詞however表示轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系符合語(yǔ)境。

12. A。Henry最后的結(jié)果是既沒(méi)有得到如愿的學(xué)習(xí)專業(yè)，也未能到自己如愿的學(xué)校。

B
