37．A．由作业可知，此人必须是一位此前你从未对他说过此话的对象，has to 需要，或至少很久没有与他们分享过这些爱意盎然的话语了．故选A项．
38．B．动词辨析．句意同上，said 为不及物动词．故选B项．
39．D．动词辨析．因为老师是说的作业，所以应该是"听""起来这不像是一份困难的任务．故选D．
40．A．副词辨析．当意识到这个班里多数男人已年逾35岁，故选when，当…时，故选A．
41．C．动词辨析．何况在他们成长（raise）的那个年代，他们受到的是这样的灌输，故选C项．
42．C．连词辨析．人们不会轻易流露情感和哭泣，因此对某些人来说，这是一项令人生畏的任务．上下句是因果关系，故选C．
43．A．固定搭配．由后面内容看出，我在上课时开始提问，at the beginning of，在…的开始，故选A．
44．B．动词辨析．我问大家有没有人愿意讲一讲，announce宣告，share分享，answer回答，故选B．

点评 考察学生的推理判断能力和联系上下文的能力，在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断．此类的填空题一定要联系上下文，根据上下文的内容加上自己的理解，再作出正确的判断．
