Answer 1

答案：B;B;D;C;C;A;D;C;D;B
解析：

1.下文说他买了一套小一点的房子，所以暗示原来的房子是相当大的，从语法结构上看，A 是错误的，所以应该选B。 2.因为他妈妈死后，这房子对Tom来说就太大了，所以他在另一条街上买了一栋小一点的房子，这是因果关系句，应该选B。 3.下文说他担心钟会被弄坏，所以暗示出这里应该选D。 4.他要把钟带到新房子里，说明他很关心这个钟，所以应该选C。 5.take是“拿走、带走”的意思，bring是“拿来、带来”的意思，put侧重于“放置”的意思，只有carry有携带、运载的意思，所以应该选C。 6.他是要把钟带到新房子里去，所以应该选A。 7.两次“twice”，三次是“three times”，他停下了两三次，所以应该选D。 8.在给出的四个短语中只有“come along”有出现的意思，可以使上下文连接起来，所以应该选C。 9.看了一会儿，用a few来修饰，所以应该选D。 10.这句话的意思是“……你为什么不和其他人一样买一块手表呢？”用介词like，无词形变化。所以应该选B。
