解析：

(1)

句子主干为she seldom went out of her house, not to say never在句中作插入语，意思是“并不是说从来没有”。

(2)

A选项true表消息之类的真实性；C选项real表“质地的真实性”，所以此处表真正的伴侣。

(3)

拒绝会见任何亲戚朋友。进一步形容其strange。

(4)

all作定语从句的先行词。亲戚们对她最感兴趣的地方是她的钱。

(5)

根据下文看她是正确的。

(6)

聚集在她的家里。

(7)

他们聚在她家听律师读will(遗嘱)。

(8)

他们都想来分得“一份”财产。

(9)

特别是对房子感兴趣。

(10)

表被动，主语是动作承受者。

(11)

形容别人很少来看她。

(12)

break off the relation意为“中断与……的关系”。

(13)

be against指“反对”。

(14)

意见导致双方气愤，所以屋里充满了火药味。

(15)

宣读遗嘱的人肯定是律师。

(16)

reach与get都一般要接宾语，arrive可用作不及物动词表示“来到”。

(17)

jokingly是解题的提示，因为她很有钱，但他却说她可能留下一大笔债务。

(18)

连笑也没有笑。说明心中有数。

(19)

读遗嘱的场合应是“严肃的”。

(20)

前面提到她真正的伴侣是两只猫，所以与two有关，而且体现老太太怪异的地方是把财产留给了她的猫。
