解析：

(1) D far和away都是副词，其后不能接名词.“离……多远”可用“…(away)from…”来表示. (2) C bring指把人或物从别处带到说话人所在的地方，take指把人或物从说话人的地方带到别处去；send是“送”和“派遣”的意思；carry一般不表示动作方向，通常指随身携带.由前一个并列分句His house is about five kilometers from his office及空白后的there，可以判断出答案为C. (3) D look是注意地看，表示看的过程；see是通过视觉器官看到物体.表示看的结果，watch是看移动的事物或定睛地看.按照英语习惯用法，看球赛应用watch. (4) C 空白后give all his wages是不带to的不定式作宾补，排除A、D.该句主语为第三人称单数，B项后缺少s. (5) A like不是从属连词，不能引导从句，应先排除，其余三个选项中只有连接代词what表示“所……的事情”，既引导宾语从句，又在从句中作says的宾语，故为最佳选择. (6) B 此空应填gives，give back是一动词短语，意为“归还”，这里是说妻子只从工资里留给他坐车的钱. (7) A 上文He likes football very much and wants to watch the football matches．表明，这里所说的Mr. Brown没钱购买的，只能是看足球比赛的票. (8) A 此空填介词with，是“用”的意思. (9) A D项只能接动名词，B、C项可接不定式，但与题意不符，均应排除.只有had to带有客观因素，意思是“不得不”，无疑为最佳选择. (10) B on foot是固定的介词短语，意为“步行”. (11) D reach，arrive，get都可以表示“到达”，但reach是及物动词，其后应直接带宾语，排除C.arrive后跟介词at或in，get后跟介词to，再跟表示地点的名词作宾语，而空白后表示地点的home是副词，get home为习惯搭配，故选 D. (12) C Mr. Brown步行回到家后有点累，但由于看了比赛，心里感到很高兴. A、B项不能同前面的tired形成转折关系；D项不能同feel连用，表示人的感受. (13) B 此空应填afraid，表明Mr. Brown不敢让他步行回家，用所有节省下来的钱买观看球赛的门票这件事告诉给自己的妻子. (14) A 空白后的a piece of news over the radio已作出提示，此空应填heard，表示“听到”. (15) C 由下文“You must be happy, I think，”said his wife．“You will save some money．”可以推断出，收音机里传出的消息内容是有关车票价格“下调”的事，故选drop. (16) D turn off是一动词短语，意为“关上(收音机)”.这里是说Mr Brown急忙关上收音机，以免妻子知道车票价格下调的事. (17) D 下文妻子说的“You will save some money．”已暗示出，她已了解消息的内容，故填late. (18) D talk，speak均为不及物动词，不能接宾语；say后不能接双宾语.此处用的句型是tell sb．sth．. (19) D 这里save money和上文收音机里传出的消息the bus fares were going to drop in price所表达的内容相照应. (20) D agree with sb．表示“同意某人的意见”.车票价格下调，Mrs Brown将因少给丈夫车费而会节省下来一笔钱，而这对Mr. Brown来说就意味着少看两场足球比赛. |
