1．besides表“除……之外”，强调除余下的事物还包括该事物，except则不包括． 2．应用过去时态，再根据下文可推断了正确答案． 3．只有reach才能表示“触及”的意思． 4．只有make与help后不用接to，但help显然不符合该人物身份． 5．文中意思应该是将草全部“解开”进行检查． 6．“能否发现”． 7．根据文意为“下山”． 8．“希望找到”． 9．过去分词作定语． 10．根据搭配应为“仔细查找”． 11．smuggling在文中已经出现过，比其他词更合文意． 12．be able to是习惯搭配，意为“不能够想像”． 13．此处须用一连词，表示“和往常一样”． 14．只有said可跟介词表“向某人说”． 15．“越过边境线”，而cross不能用作副词． 16．走私，即指从一国到另一国． 17．on the job表示“在某一工作岗位上”． 18．“离休，退休”． 19．从文意知道，他会保守秘密，即“not to tell anyone”． 20．“一段时间”，用some time较为合适． |
