解析:
1、read此处为过去分词作状语,相当于when it is read in Japanese。B、C、D项中三个词型都不对,故答案为A。
2、the same…as为固定短语,意为“与……一样”。 3、both…and为固定短语,意为“两者都……”。 4、任何其它数字。 5、“好衣服”或者是“好肉”。 6、join, fix不与with搭配;mix with“与……混合在一起”,不符合句意;connect with“与……有联系”,故选B。 7、上面讲的都是吉利的数字,因此是同好事情联系在一起的,故选C。 8、因此人们会很容易记住。 9、因此他们就成了商店的广告。 10、there be结构,意为“有……”。 11、这是被动语态,用by引出施动者。 12、while此处表转折,意为“而……”,通常用于对照、对比的转折中。 13、that代指前面的the sound,是为避免语言上的重复。 14、At present,目前。 15、因为后面讲到了电话号码,因此这里要用telephones。 16、根据句意,答案应选B。全句意为“每人都能得到幸运的电话号码几乎是不可能的”。 17、根据前文,这里的意思是这些数字变成了商品。 18、可以被作为商品出售。 19、根据222 thousand Japanese yen来判断,指的应是号码的出售价格,故选D。 20、修饰price的形容词用high或low。故C为正确答案。

提示:
For many years, Hawaii has been a magic name to people who like to travel. People on both sides of the Pacific Ocean, in Japan and in America, dream of seeing these beautiful islands in the middle of the ocean. Their dreams always include at least one scene of a sunset over the ocean. In the tropical(热带的) lands, the sun drops, like a ball of golden fire, into the sea, and it droops so quickly that you can almost see it move. The sun leaves behind a glow that lights the skies and shines in the quiet water.
People often have a quiet, peaceful time ---perfect for a leisurely(悠闲的) walk along the water. This scene is not too different from the dramatic(令人神往的) beauty that greeted the first strangers to these islands centuries ago. They were Polynesian people who came from Tahiti in canoes not much bigger than small boats.
They found the beautiful white sand beaches and the waving palm trees, but there were no giant hotels like the ones we see nowadays. The first people came to Hawaii nearly two thousand years ago, but skyscraper hotels were only built in the last 25 years. Now jet planes make it possible to fly to for a weekend from Tokyo. Wherever the people come from, they really want to see the original beauty of Hawaii. They want to see the lovely beaches and the mountain called Diamond Head which is almost hidden by the tall hotels.
