Answer 1

1. B此处指"我妻子和我在5月15号,周六到达，并且停留一周"。其余选项意思都不相符。

2. D此处though表让步，下半句是不足之处，所以上半句应指服务得不错。

3. A should常用来表建议，语气委婉。

4. B从紧张的工作中脱身去度假，所以应选hoIiday。

5. A一个满怀期待来享受舒适和安静的人,却发现修理工作时有发生，当然出乎意外了。

6. D此处是副词修饰形容词。too... to...表"太……而不能……"，不合句意。

7. B pool是"水池"之意，这里指"游泳"。

8. D此处表达作者的一种愿望。

9. C about是"关于"的意思，此处最合适。

10. C此处意思是"正如我开始所言……"，有说话的内容，故用said。
