答案：A;A;B;B;C;C;A;C;C;C
解析：

　　剖析：1．go for holiday意为“去度假”是固定搭配．

　　2．下文“Why didn't you post me my letters？”表明，英国人在度假期间要看他的信．

　　3．这里是英国人让管家收到信后给他寄去．按照英语时态的呼应规律，主句为将来时，时间状语从句须用一般现在时代替一将将来时．

　　4．下文这位英国人感到奇怪并询问管家为什么不把信寄来表明，英国人没有收到来信．hear from是固定的动词短语，表示“收到……的来信”，后跟表示人的名词或代词．

　　5．上文叙述了So the Englishman went to the seashore and had a good time there．英国人和管家各处一方，只有打电话，也才有下文的对话．

　　6．管家说出不寄信的原因，用来回答why提出的问题须用because．

　　7．days是复数，排除C、D，a few days later表示“几天之后”．

　　8．上文叙述了A month passed but he didn't receive any letters．又过了一个月，仍未收到信，still表示从过去到现在一个持续的状态，短文最后一段已作出了提示．

　　9．从上文看，这位英国人在开始度假期间没有收到信，后来寄了钥匙，仍未收到信，自然很生气了．因spoke是实义动词，须用副词angrily修饰．

　　10．由上文A few days later，he put the key into an envelope，and posted the letter．及管家的问话“But what could I do？”可以判断出，钥匙是锁在信箱里了，当然无法把信取出寄走，这一点是可以根据常识判断出来的．主语是谓语动词动作的承受者应用被动语态．
