试题分析：本文叙述了查理因为喜欢喝酒，每次还喜欢喝的很多，这使他的妻子很生气，她担心丈夫喝酒太多会对他的健康带来伤害。他也知道妻子对他的担心，但是他看见酒就会控制不住自己。

1.考查短语。这里a little修饰形容词的比较级。他没有离开酒吧直到他感觉好一点了。

2.考查短语。这里是短语say goodbye to sb给某人说再见。他给朋友说了一声再见，然后去了公共汽车。

3.考查副词。on副词，表示灯亮着。灯亮着表示他的妻子还在等着他。

4.考查连词。这里meant是宾语从句，从句中不缺成分，故用that。

5.考查连词。so表示前因后果，意为“因此”。她认为喝酒太多对身体没有好处，因此她尽她的最大努力去阻止他去喝酒。

6.考查动词。因为主句的谓语动词是promised ，所以从句用would表示过去将来时。他答应他以后不去喝酒了。

7.考查代词。因为主语是he这里指他自己himself；当他在聚会时看见酒，他不能控制自己。

8.考查短语。根据but a cat可知这里是 not…but不是……而是……;那不是一头猪，而是一只猫。

考点：选词填空。
