C

Dear Aunt Tara, I have a problem with my homework. We have to do it in a group. It has to be finished this Friday, but Gary, the boy in our group, has done nothing helpful. He just keeps rocking the boat. Every time we talk about the work with him, he always says, "Don't worry. I'll do it later." But he seldom does his job. And when he does, he does it the wrong way. Someone has to do it for him again. What's worse is when Ms. Lin asks about our group, Gary always tells her that we others don't work hard enough. I'm really mad at Gary about this. We're in the same group. Shouldn't we help each other to do a better job? Kate
	Dear Kate, It is important for students to learn how to work together in a group. Maybe you should talk to Gary about the problem and tell him you all need his help. If he still doesn't change, go and talk to your teacher. I believe she can make Gary do his job. Aunt Tara

⑴词义猜测。A.做简单的事；B.告诉别人做什么；C.不加思考地做；D.阻止事情顺利进展。根据本句前but Gary has done nothing helpful可知Gary做的事没有帮助，他在捣乱；搅局。故选D。
⑵词义猜测。根据句意可知this指前文提到的Gary always tells her that we others don't work hard enough（他老是跟老师说我们不努力）,故选C。
⑶推理判断。根据文章提到when Ms. Lin asks about our group可知会询问我们小组的作业的只有老师，故选C。
⑷细节理解。根据回信中you should talk to Gary about the problem and tell him you all need his help可知Aunt Tara建议Kate跟Gary谈谈，并告诉他大家需要他的帮助。故选Ｄ。
