答案：A;C;B;C;A;A;D;B;C;D;A;B;A;C;B;C;A;A;B;D
解析：

(1)文章说明了给孩子们的圣诞礼物在圣诞节前藏好不被孩子们发现,是父母亲们面临的一个大困难，短语be faced with的意思是“面临”．

(2) problem意为“困难．难题”，所以，藏起大实物是一件困难的事情．

(3)四个选项都可以与up构成词组，但是，stay up是“熬夜，不睡觉”的意思．

(4)可以判断出，孩子们不愿睡觉的原因是不想错过圣诞礼物给他们带来的快乐．

(5) lie awake既符合题意，也符合语法规则．Lie后须跟形容词，表示状况．

(6) get a short look at是一个固定的词组，其他三个选项无法直接放在这个短语中．

(7)读完全文可以知道，文章叙述了去年送给孩子们圣诞节礼物的故事．

(8) fear能充分表达作者不愿孩子们在节前见到礼物的心情．否则，就可能失去令孩子们惊喜的效果．

(9)如果作者的儿子想要搞清自行车的来历，肯定是要问的，故ask符合题意．

(10) but表示转折，这说明他的孩子们没看到自行车，作者认为这非常的“幸运”．

(11)这是it takes sb. time to do sth.句型．

(12)等孩子们睡着后，可能已经是midnight了．Daybreak意为“黎明，破晓”．

(13)根据圣诞节的风俗习惯，选A．sew意为“缝补”．

(14)上文已经说明．

(15) be sure to do sth.最能表达孩子们急于见到礼物的心情．

(16) they were shouting excitedly表达出孩子们见到礼物时的兴奋劲儿．夫妇两人被孩子们吵醒，故woken是最适合的选项．

(17) before意为“还没……就”，引导时间状语从句．

(18)用even语气强，而且更准确在表示出作者的惊奇．

(19) move on one's hands是“爬着走”的意思．

(20)正是由于孩子们的吵闹，还有气球的爆炸声，夫妇两人才被吵醒了．Completely意为“完全地”．

This was one of my experiences 1 .When I was in my 30s,I was working for a large international company which had its head office in London. I was working in the 2 department.

The company had a training center which was just outside London. Different courses were held there throughout 3 and I 4 go on one training course a year. These usually started 5 a Sunday evening and lasted six days.

Once I was 6 a week’s training course with about forty 7 sales people. I was in the bar on the Friday evening and suddenly a woman who was 8 behind the bar asked me a curious question.“I hope you don’t 9 my asking,” she said, “but I’ve been 10 about it all week. Have you got a sister 　　11 Mary?” The woman’s name was June. And she used to do various jobs at the training center’s worked in the office, she organized all the food and drink for the center and she worked in the bar at lunch time and in the evening.

My answer 12 June’s question was “Yes”,and June said,“I thought 13 .I met her last September when she was organizing a course here.” At that time, my sister was working for 14 company but in a different part of the country. That was 15 she came to be at the training center.
16 surprised me was how June guessed we were brother and sister. Three things made it even more 　　17 .First, she had met my sister six months before she met me.

And 19 ,my sister is married, so she doesn’t have the same family name as me.
