【解析】

试题解析：我去参加我的老同学Kalyani婚礼，却在开始时弄错了把礼物送给我不认识的一个新娘，在我找到了Kalyani时，我发现麻烦来了——我无礼可送了。

1.A. in case“万一”；B. even if“即使”；C. so that“为了…；结果是…”；D. as if“仿佛，好像”。根据上下文，该句的句意为：“要坚持完美的时间安排来使得不存在任何的混乱。”，所以根据逻辑关系，要选择“so that”在此处引导目的状语从句。

2.A. fortunately“幸运地”；B. frequently“时常、经常”；C. impossibly“不可能”； D. Hardly“几乎不”。but在该句中表示转折，上文提到要坚持完美的时间安排来避免混乱，该句则表示“但是我却“时常”发现事与愿违。”所以there is后乘前省略了confusion，该空要填一副词来修饰is，根据句意此处填B. frequently“时常、经常”。

3.Kalyani的邀请去她的婚礼的时，我在日记上记录了一下。”所以，正确答案为D. received“收到”。

4.A. finally“最终”；B. immediately“立即”；C. suddenly“突然”；D. naturally“自然地”。Kalyani以前是我的同学，并且我们关系很好，所以“自然而然地”我很高兴去参加她的婚礼。正确答案应为 D. naturally.

5.borrowed an Indian style shirt. ”（借了件印度风格的衬衫），所以我显然是决定要“为参加她的婚礼‘穿’件合适的衣服”。所以正确答案为C. dress.

6.A. talk to“和…谈话”；B. look for“寻找”；C. say hello to“和…打招呼”；D. shake hands with“和…握手”，根据下一句“ I saw no one ”，所以此处，我是要“找”我认识的人。故正确答案为B. look for.

7.A. carefully“仔细地”B. clearly“清晰地”C. completely“完全地”D. easily“容易地”根据本段后半部分出现的，我发现“it was not Kalyani at all”。所以，此时我从我坐的地方是看“不清楚”她的。故正确答案为B. Clearly.

8.A. experienced“经历”；B. learned“学到”；C. suffered“遭受苦难”；D. changed“改变”，根据语境，尤其是下一句“She looked a little fat now”（她现在看起来有点胖了），所以，该空填D.changed.(我觉得她“变”了一些)。

9. A. shook（one’s head）“摇头”；B. nodded（one’s head）“点头”；C. bent“使弯曲”；D. covered“覆盖”，根据上文提到的我觉得她变了，变得胖了点还带了眼睛，这些变化显然并不是很好，所以我“摇了摇头”。故正确答案为A.shook.

10.A. slowed （down）“放慢，减速”；B. looked （down）“俯视”；C. calmed（down）“镇定下来”D. settled down“坐下来；安顿下来”，在该情景中，无论如何我还是“坐了下来”等待着婚礼的仪式。所以，答案为D. settled down.

11.D. congratulate.(congratulate sb“祝贺某人”)。

12.A. note“笔记”；B. invitation“邀请，请柬”；C. present“礼物”；D. diary“日记”,根据常理，在向新人表示祝贺时，会给她“礼物”。所以，正确答案为C. present.

13.A. flashed“闪光，闪现”B. forced“强迫，推动”C. wore“穿、戴、蓄（胡须）、面带…表情”D. pretended“假装”,当收到别人礼物时，肯定会“掠过、面露”微笑。所以正确答案为A.flashed“闪现，面露”。

14.it was not Kalyani at all. 显然，我此时是满满的“吃惊”：她不是Kalyani。所以正确答案为D.surprise.

15.A. noisy“嘈杂的、喧闹的”；B. wrong“错误的”C. strange“奇怪的、陌生的”D. splendid“极好的、壮丽的”,根据前一句“…it was not Kalyani at all. ”可知，我是去错了婚礼，这个婚礼并不是我老同学的婚礼。所以，正确答案为B. wrong“错误的”。

16.A. get“获得、变成”；B. hide“隐藏、隐瞒”；C. prove“证明”；D. stop“停止”，我此刻面露笑容，显然是为了“隐藏”我的惊讶。所以，正确答案为B. hide.

17.A. Otherwise“否则”；B. Moreover“而且”；C. Therefore“所以”；D. Anyway“尽管、即使这样”，例如：The water was cold but I took a shower anyway. 根据上文可知我去错了婚礼，而该句的句意是我还是被像宾客一样被对待。所以根据其逻辑关系，此空填D. Anyway来表示让步关系。

18.

19.Kalyani，根据常识Kalyani应该在迎接宾客，所以该处应是等待区、迎客区，所以正确答案为：A. waiting.

20.A. thought“思考”；B. trouble“麻烦、烦恼”；C. sorrow“悲伤、不幸”；D. doubt“怀疑、疑惑”，我现在已经把礼物阴差阳错地送给了别人，所以在看到我此刻当新娘的老同学时，我意思到我的麻烦来了。所以正确答案为：B. trouble.
