“No problem，”said Dad. “All you have to do is to ____ your feet as often as possible, and always wear socks, even to ____.”Well, to him this seemed to be a solution (解决办法).

Joan decided to take her ____ up with her mom. “Mom，” she said. “when I ____ in the morning my breath is truly terrible.” “Honey，”her mother comforted her. “Everyone has bad ____ in the morning.” “No, you don't understand. My morning breath is so bad that I'm afraid Jack will not want to sleep in the same room with me.”

Her mother said simply, “Try this. In the morning, ____ straight out of bed, and head for the bathroom and brush your teeth. The key is, not to ____ a word until you've brushed your teeth.”

【解析】本文讲述Jack and Joan就要结婚了，但他们各自都有烦恼。这到底是怎么回事呢？

【1】C share sth. with sb.是固定短语，意思是“和某人分享某物”，这里指两人从未告诉过对方彼此的烦恼。work with意思是“与……一起干；从事……工作”，不合句意。

【2】A ask sb. for advice是固定短语，意思是“向某人征求建议”。want作“想要”讲时，一般用want sb. to do sth.，因此不合句意；而expect意思是 “要求；盼望” ，一般用expect sb. to do sth.，也不合句意；没有think sb. for sth. 这种用法。

【3】D 形容对某事关心程度深，常用deeply, deeply concerned“非常担心”； widely“广泛地”； highly“高度地”；hardly“几乎不”。

【4】B 文中刚开始就提到Jack与Joan的婚姻。此处应指他担心他的婚姻。

【5】B 根据上下文的意思，此处表示转折。Jack非常喜欢Joan，但他担心他的脚臭会影响到他们的婚姻。

【6】D smelly feet意思是“臭脚”，且和第7个空所填的词相呼应。

【7】C wash feet为固定搭配“洗脚”。

【8】A 爸爸告诉儿子勤洗脚，且穿着袜子睡觉，根据第18个空前后内容，也可推测出答案。

【9】 D Joan带着她的问题向妈妈求助。question意思广泛，指“需要解决或解答的问题”；problem指“疑难、困难的问题，或令人困惑的人或事”等， Joan所问的问题是令她困惑的问题，且第一段最后一句也有提示。

【10】B 她告诉妈妈第二天早上起床时口臭。go to sleep＝go to bed“去睡觉”的意思。rise也有“起床”的意思，但其后不加up。如：rise early“起得早”。

【11】C 妈妈告诉她每个人早上起床时都口臭。和第10个空后“... my breath ...”相呼应。

【12】A 妈妈告诉她起床后直接到洗漱间去刷牙。get out of bed为固定搭配“下床”。

【13】D 秘诀是刷牙前不说话。say后面跟说话内容； speak强调开口说的动作。

【14】A 根据第15个空后的“they got on quite well”推出他们没有忘记建议。

【15】B with her morning silence表示“早晨不说话”。

【16】C six months later是固定用法，表示“六个月后”。

【17】B 醒来后，发现一只袜子不见了。see“看见”； find“发现事实、真相”等； discover“发现别人不知道的事物”；invent“发明”。

【18】B 由后面的. .. madly searched the bed可知，袜子脱落了。come out“去掉”； come up“发生；长出来”； come in“进来”； come off“成功”。

【19】C 表示未经思考。A项move与句意不符； B项wake与前面一词“woke”矛盾； D项sleep也与句意不符。

【20】D 由于不知道妻子口臭，自己一只袜子又不见了，可推测出Jack以为妻子吞了他的那只袜子。
