　　Many people are tidy both at home and at the office. Nowhere have I seen a 1 untidy office than my friend James’ . Everywhere there are 2 and books. Not only does it seem never to be cleaned out, but also I do not think it is ever aired, for at 3 time have I seen any of the windows 4 . Often I have 5 James that he should open one, but each time he answered,“Not just now, Henry Later.”Luckily I 6 to go there very often, nor do I stay there longer than I have to. Strangely enough, James is quite 7 outside his office. Only once have I seen him with a dirty collar, for example. He is usually well 8 .Nor is he careless about things like 9 .At no time has he been 10 to forget a party, and no sooner does he receive an invitation 11 he answers it. Unfortunately, his office is quite 12 run. Perhaps he does not like 13 work. In his garden in the evening and 14 weekends, James is happy. As soon as he 15 home from the office, he begins to work in the garden. Always he seems to have some work to do there, and nowhere in his garden 16 a corner which is not tidy or well 17 .Seldom have I seen prettier flowers, or healthier vegetables, or smoother, greener grass than in his 18 .Really I 19 he ought to have been a farmer, so 20 is he at such work. Dear friends, have you ever met a person like James? or do you find him lovely?

Answer 1

答案：A;B;D;C;B;A;C;A;C;B;D;A;A;C;B;D;B;A;B;A
解析：

(1) A 本句含有than引导的比较状语从句，再根据上下文进行判断推理。(2) B papers此处意为“报纸”，是可数名词。C应用复数。(3) D at no time意为“从不，决不(never)”。(4) C 由上文“I don’t think it is ever aired”可知。(5) B 因后面的从句使用了虚拟语气，故可排除其他选项。(6) A 从nor可知本句也是否定句，don’t have to意为“不必”。(7) C 由上文可知。strangely连接下文，表示转折。(8) A be well dressed为固定表达，意为“穿着讲究”。(9) C 由下文“...to forget a party”可知。(10) B 句意应为“决不会有人会得知他忘了舞会”。(11) D no sooner ... than ... 为固定搭配，意为“一……就……”。(12) B A为形容词；hardly不用quite修饰；easily与上下文意思不一致。(13) A 不表程度，故不选C、B；也没说“工作艰辛”。such work在此表示“（整理办公室）这种活儿”。(14) C “在周末”应为“at(the)weekend”。(15) B“get home”到家；home为副词，其前不用介词。(16) D nowhere引导倒装结构。(17) B 句意为“照看花园”。(18) A 由上句推出答案。(19) B 此处表达主观看法。(20) A be good at为固定词组，意为“擅长于……”。
