Answer 1

1. A 通读全文可以知道父亲看电影的时候发生了一个小误会，而且第4段第3句也有照应(He smiled and told us about the funny thing...) ，故应该是"滑稽的，好笑的" (funny)。

2. C 如果电影票放在box,book,paper下面，它们都是不透明的，那么父亲在下班的时候不会发现的。故应该是在透明的"玻璃板"或者"玻璃杯"(glass) 下面。

3. D 父亲下班了，应该是去打发"晚上"的时间。

4. C 因要去看电影，故是"迅速地"吃完晚饭。

5. B 父亲要离开家里，跟家里人道别。

6. D to one's surprise"令某人惊讶的是"，下文记叙父亲半个小时就回来了，看一场电影不可能这么短的时间，故应该是使大家感到惊讶。

7. A "我"感到惊讶，有疑问，故应是"询问"发生了什么事情。

8. B 从后文知道是一位"妇女"。

9. C take one's seat"坐在某人座位上"，此处是过去完成时的被动语态，故用过去分词taken, 表示座位"已经被占用"。

10. A 表示并列用and。

11. C 从后文知道两张票是一样的，故从该段最后一句话可以知道应该是Seat 3.

12. D show her ticket"出示她的电影票"。

13. A 父亲和那位妇女感到很蹊跷、纳闷，故应该是"为什么"。

14. B 同一个电影院的票大小应该是一样的，为了区分时间，一般情况下是把票面做成不同顔色。

15. B 最后父亲意识到自己犯了错误，手里拿是一个月前电影票，故应该是感到"抱歉，对不起。"
