【解析】试题分析：这篇短文讲述George是一个极其认真仔细的人，他去超市买东西把几年前买的手套弄丢了，不断寻找没找到，最终他打算放弃的时候，他最后又去询问了失物招领处高兴地发现他找到了他的手套。

【1】C句意：当他离开收银台，他很高兴的想他今天又节省了80分。根据句意可知他非常节俭，所以节省了钱心情是高兴地，be pleased to是很高兴……；be sad to做……很悲伤；be sorry to是很抱歉做……；be worried to是担心做……。根据句意可知填pleased。故选C。

【2】A句意：在出口，寒冷的风让他想起他的手套。think of是想起；think about是思考，考虑；think over是仔细考虑；think for是认为，预料。根据句意可知应填think of，故选A。

【3】C句意：他在上衣和裤子里找手套，但是到处都找不到。根据句意可知前后句是转折关系，故填but。故选C。

【4】A句意：几年前，他曾经以合适的价钱买下的这双手套，仅仅35美元。在英语中表示价格应该用high，low。这里表示价格低，只能选good。故选A。

【5】B句意：它们很柔软，很舒适。根据句意可知，George非常在意这双手套，并结合comfortable，判断应该用soft柔软的；hard是坚硬的；new是新的；small是小的。故选B。

【6】B句意：他一直很好的保管这双手套，所以手套还很好。根据句意手套状态良好，所以表示她一直保管的很好，look for是寻找；look after是照顾，保管；look at是看；look over是查看，仔细检查。故选B。

【7】C句意：George外表镇静内心狂躁地重新进入商店。exit是出口；condition是状况；office是办公室。根据句子中re-entered体现是重新进入，所以选商店。故选C。

【8】C句意：他的手套丢了。coat是外衣；pant是裤子；cent是美分。根据上文提到他一直在找手套，所以此处填gloves。故选C。

【9】B句意：他盯着戴黑色手套的每一个人想看看手套是不是像他的。him是他；his是他的；them是他们；heirs是他们的。根据句意这里表示手套是不是他的，故填his。故选B。

【10】D句意：在他每天走的路上他注意到一位妇人戴着一双黑色的手套。caught是抓住；knocked是敲门；held是握住；noticed是注意到。根据句意可知notice合适。故选D。

【11】B句意：但是当他仔细查看这位受惊的夫人，他垂下了眼，因为这双手套远比他的小很多。Although是虽然；when是当……的时候；unless是除非；until是直到。根据句意可知选B。

【12】D句意：最终他向街里。根据句意可知表示走进街里的人群中应该用介词into。故选D。

【13】D句意：上地铁之前他又走进超市。after是在……之后；when是当……的时候；while是当……的同时；before是在……之前。根据句意表示没上地铁又进了超市，用before。故选D。

【14】C句意：“黑色。”他给出同样的答案。return是返回，归还；get是得到；give是给，给出；take是拿，取。根据句意表示给出答案，应该用give。故选C。

【15】B句意：她查看了一下抽屉，拿出一双男士的皮手套。kid’s是孩子的；men’s是男式的；women’s是女式的；lady’s是女士的。根据句意可知他要找的是男士的，后文体现正好是他的，所以填men’s。故选B。
