Answer 1

【答案】

【1】B

【2】D

【3】A

【4】E

【5】C

【解析】

文章介绍的是Betty Kwan成立了一家名为“It’s Done”的公司，帮助忙碌的人跑腿，例如寄信、取药、购物等。Betty总是很忙碌。她为能够帮助别人感到高兴。

【1】句意：她为忙碌的人办事。

根据句意理解及句中的She does errands(跑腿) for且空格后面有名词people可知，这里需要一个形容词，在句中作定语修饰后面的名词，且这里表达的是“忙碌的”，所以这里应该用busy，故选B。

【2】句意：她的顾客为她每小时的服务付费。

根据句意理解及空格后的each hour of her service可知，这里表达的是“付费”，英语是短语pay for，而文中用的是一般现在时，句子主语是复数名词，所以这里的动词用原形，故选D。

【3】句意：午饭时间我得去银行，邮局，干洗店，我总是赶时间。

根据句意理解可知，这里表达的是“在午餐时间”，英语中表达“在……时间”等具体的时间点时，要用的介词是at，故选A。

【4】句意：贝蒂仍然很忙。

根据句意理解及后句Yesterday, I went to the post office and then to the airport. Today I have to buy presents for all the secretaries in the company. 昨天，我去了邮局，然后去了机场。今天我要给公司所有的秘书买礼物。可知这里表达的是“仍然很忙”，所以这里应该用still，故选E。

【5】句意：但它总是很有趣，我真的很喜欢和我的客户交谈。

根据句意理解可知，这里表达的是“与某人交谈”，英语是talk to sb，而这里表达的是“喜欢做某事”，英语是love doing sth，所以这里要用talking to，故选C。
