【解析】

【小题】and连接的应该是两个时态相同的动词，根据原文One day he phoned and  26  me he would be away for a week.， and前面的phone用的是过去式，因此选C.told.

【小题】根据原文，He asked me to feed the bird   27   him and said he would leave his key in my mailbox.（译文：他请我帮他喂养他的鸟，还说他会把钥匙放在我的信箱里），feed sth.for sb.意为“帮助某人喂养某物”，因此选项是C.

【小题】根据原文，Unfortunately, I did not remember to feed the birds   28  the night before David was going to return.，（译文：不幸的是，直到David即将离开的前一晚我才记得要给鸟喂食），A.until表示“(用于否定句)在...以前,直到...才”，因此A为答案。

【小题】根据全文语境，得知David是位男生，所以选B. his。

【小题】根据原文，I soon found the key he gave me could unlock neither the front door   30   the back door!（译文：很快，我便发现他留给我的钥匙竟不能打开前门也不能打开后门）。neither...nor...是固定搭配，表示"既不……也不……"，其含义是否定的，可连接任意两个并列的成份。因此答案为D.

【小题】keep doing sth.，表示“一直持续做某事”，答案为C，其余项均不符合题意。

【小题】根据原文，Then I noticed  32   one bedroom window was open.（译文：然后，我注意到其中一间房间的窗户是开着的）。此处，缺少一个引导宾语从句的引导词，what和that都可以引导宾语从句。但是引导主语、宾语或表语从句时what在从句中要充当句子成分;而that引导主语、宾语、表语和同位语从句时不作任何成分只起语法连接作用。因此，答案为B.

【小题】根据句意得知，此处缺少一个原因状语从句的引导词，选项中只有because符合句意，因此答案为B.

【小题】根据语境，此处应用过去进行时，因此D.was shining符合题意。

【小题】根据原文句子，I looked down and saw   35  policeman and an old lady, 此处应填入一个不定冠词a，因此选A.
