B 句意:好了,成交了,再高了就超出了我的支付能力了。根据题意,并不是进行比较,因此不用比较级,排除A 和C,而是表示“再”,冠词a+比较级表示此意。
Like most English children, I learned foreign languages at 36. When I made my first visit 37 the Unites States, I was 38 I could have a nice easy holiday without any 39 problem. But how 40 I was!
At the American airport, I was looking for a public telephone to 41 my friend Jenny I had 41 . A worker asked if he could 43 me. “Yes,” I said. “I want to give my friend a ring.” “Well, that’s nice. Are you getting married?” he asked. “No,” I answered. “I just want to tell her 44 the phone I have arrived.” “Oh,” he said, “there is a 45 downstairs on the first floor.” “But we’re on the first floor now,” I said. “Well, I don’t know what you are 46 about. Maybe you aren’t feeling too well after your 47,” he said. “You just go and wash up, and you will feel a lot better.” And he went 48 , 49 me wondering where on earth I was: at home we wash up after a 50 to get the cups and plates clean. How can I wash up at an airport?
At last we did 51. She 52 the misunderstanding(误会): American say “to give someone a 53 ”, but we English say “ to give someone a ring”. When we say “to wash your hands”, they say “to wash 54”. And Englishmen start numbering from the floor, so the 55 floor is the second for Americans.

When I was 16 years old, I made my first visit to Disneyland in America. It wasn’t the first time I had been 36 . Like most English children I learned French 37 school and I had often been to France, so I 38 speaking a foreign language to people who didn’t understand 39 . But 40 I went to America, I was really looking forward to__41_ a nice easy holiday without any 42 problems.
__43__wrong I was! The misunderstanding began 44 the airport. I was looking for a 45__telephone to give my friend Danny a 46 and tell her I had arrived. A 47 old man saw me looking lost and asked 48 __ he could help me.
“Yes.” I said,“I was to give my friend a ring. ”“Well, that’s nice,” he said. “Are you getting 49 ? But aren’t you a bit young?”“ 50 is talking about marriage?” I replied. “I just want to give my friend a ring to tell her I’ve arrived. Can you tell me 51 there’s a phone box?”“Oh!” he said, “there’s phone downstairs.”
When at last we did meet up, Danny explained the misunderstanding to me. “Don’t worry,”she said to me, “I had so many 52 at first. There are lots of words which the Americans 53 differently in meaning from us British. You’ll soon get used to 54 funny things they say. Most of the 55 , British and American people understand each other!”

It is three in the morning on a Tuesday, and I’m walking toward table eighteen, the one I call home. I pass the waiters, give a brief nod to the 【小题1】 and take my seat. I 【小题2】 the “usual,” water and peanut butter pie. Yes, I’m at an all-night diner.
I start to take out my books, 【小题3】 full well that I will be 【小题4】 on the same page of Socrates that I’ve been on for the better part of the semester. Of course, it’s 【小题5】 —for my group that is. I wait for the empty chairs around me to be 【小题6】 .
Just as the Muzak songs start to repeat themselves, Shana and Jenny walk in. I am 【小题7】 with the usual big hugs and smiles. 【小题8】 , the diner stops being a twenty-for-hour restaurant with bad service and becomes my place—my home 【小题9】 the prisonlike dorm room. For the next couple of hours, we will joke about people we know, talk about books, reflect on the meaning of life, quote movies and 【小题10】 new private jokes. Table number eighteen is our 【小题11】 home.
During my senior year of college, I started going to the diner for a temporary escape from a dorm room that felt like it was closing in on me. Not to 【小题12】 the phones, the stereo and the computer. How could anyone seriously 【小题13】 to have good study habits? Some friends of mine told me about the place; they went there to study, and they really liked it.
So I tried it. It felt remarkably freeing. I start going there every night (except weekends, of course), and, believe me it was not because the pies were 【小题14】 great either. Maybe it would force me to open my books and my 【小题15】 would improve. Right? Well….
But that’s not the 【小题16】 . I mean, anyone who has gone to college knows that it’s not only about forcing yourself to wake up at 7:45 A.M. (after you had gone to sleep two hours earlier) to listen to a professor spoon-feeding you information 【小题17】 the significance of the Battle of Hastings. It is 【小题18】 about finding a little haven where you can create what will be the most important thing in your life—yourself. At a school of thirty-five thousand people, I found a small place that was as 【小题19】 to me as my Social Security number.
Through laughter, tears, learning, growing and the 【小题20】 free ice cream, we found a sanctuary. A place where we could be ourselves.
