【小题10】所填词修饰动词look,意思是:甚至,选B。

【小题11】我在解释,儿子为了验证我的话,当然是要检查每个苹果,看与我说的是否相符。句子意思是:Adam仔细的查看了每一个苹果。选A。

【小题12】由上文可知作者把每个苹果削皮,然后“放回”去,所以选择place:放置。

【小题13】所填介词与后文的名词place构成短语,意思是:在……地方,选D。

【小题14】本句意思是:我不能识别。此处情态动词表能力,选B。

【小题15】句意是:每个尝一口。选A。

【小题16】admit:承认;consider:考虑,认为;decide:决定;believe:相信。根据句意选C。

【小题17】根据前文的take a bite if…可知此处选A。

【小题18】此处是肯定句,所填词意思是:正是,恰恰,选A。always意思是:总是;merely:只,仅仅,常用与否定句中;seldom:很少,都与句意不附。

       In the doorway of my home, I looked closely at my 23-year-old son, Daniel. In a few hours he would be flying to France to   36   a different life.
