Townhouse部分提到的“InsideitoffersanabundanceofpersonalityandatouchofodditywithnodstothefamouswriterOscarWilde.(在里面，它提供了豐富的個性和一絲古怪，向著名作家奧斯卡·王爾德致敬。)”可知，SentryMead和Mayfair

Townhouse部分提到的“Puppiesstayforfreeandreceiveablanket,bowland“screaming”ballfortheirstay.(小狗可以免費入住，并在入住期間獲得毯子、碗和“尖叫”球。)”可知，Mayfair

Townhouse為小狗提供新玩具(Screaming

ball)。故選A?！?題詳解】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段內(nèi)容“Lookingtotakeyourfour-leggedfriendonholiday?Herearethebestpet-friendlyhotelsintheUK.(想帶你的四條腿的朋友去度假嗎？以下是英國最好的寵物友好型酒店。)”可知，文章是關于寵物友好型酒店的，目標讀者應該是帶著狗去旅行的人，故選D。BRoadtripswerepartofmychildhood,butitishardtosaytheyareentirelyfondmemories.Assomeonewhoeasilygotcarsick,Ispentmostofthelongdriveswithmyheadagainstthewindoworleaningawkwardlytotheside.Moreoften,however,IwouldhavetosleepthroughtheCDsinourbeatencar.TherewasoneCDthatweoftenplayed,onethatbecamethesymbolicRoadTripCDinmymind.ItwasanalbuminMandarin(普通話)bymymom’sfavoritemusicartist,LeonLai,whoIunderstoodwasamajorCantopoplegendinhisday.WeseeminglyonlyplayedtheunidentifiedLeonLaiCDduringourhour-longroadtrips.Ididn’tknowwhatitwascalleduntilIwasinhighschoolandsuccessfullyuncovereditbysearchingthroughLeonLai’salbumsonSpotifyuntilIfoundtheoneliketheCDcoverart.向往，orLonging,a1998Mandarinrelease,didn’tseemtobeoneofLeonLai’smostfamousworks.Mymomdidn’tseemtorememberwhyshehaditeither.ThefactthatitwasinMandarin,however,mademyparentsevenmorewillingtoplayitonrepeat.Tomakeupformeandmybrother’sembarrassingunfamiliaritywiththeChineselanguage,throughoutourchildhoodtheywerekeenonhavinguswatchshowsandlistentomusicinChineseasawayforustoimmerseourselvesandmakeupforthegroundwelost.TheywereusuallyinMandarin,becausethatwaswhatourformalChineseschoolingtaughtus,eventhoughCantonesewasthedialectourfamilyactuallyspoke.ThisatleastmeantIcouldusewhatIlearnedinclasstounderstandthelyricsinthisalbum,thoughIfoundthesinginghardertounderstand.Duetotheendlessexposuretothesongsontheroad,thegenuinelymemorablemixofupbeatandballad-liketunes,aswellashowwellitshowsmycomplicatedconnectiontotheChineselanguage,thisrandomalbumholdsaspecialplaceinmyheart.4.Howdidtheauthorfeelduringroadtrips?A.Bored.

Tomasterthefinerskills,Isignedupforafreelance(自由撰稿)writingcourse.(為了掌握更精細的技巧，我報名參加了一個自由寫作課程。)”講述了我為了掌握技巧，報名了寫作課程，因此推斷空處應與寫作相關，結(jié)合文章開頭一句“Asachild,Idreamedofbecomingawriter(當我還是個孩子的時候，我夢想成為一名作家)”可推斷，E選項“我意識到我正在做我小時候夢想的事情。”符合語境，選項中的“something

I

dreamed

of

as

a

child”與文章開頭一句呼應，說明我開始實現(xiàn)兒時的夢想，成為一個作家，故選E?！?9題詳解】空前“EncouragingfeedbackfromtutorsgavemetheconfidencetosubmitmyworkforpublicationontheInternet.(導師的鼓勵反饋給了我信心，讓我把我的作品提交到互聯(lián)網(wǎng)上發(fā)表。)”可知，空處描述在網(wǎng)上發(fā)表文章后的讀者回復，B選項的“unexpected

and

overpowering”呼應下文“people

emailed…Some

even

asked

for

advice”，因此推斷B項“讀者的反應出乎意料，令人難以抗拒。”符合語境，故選B。【20題詳解】根據(jù)下文“IamdoingwhatIlove.Onmyjourney,Ihavelearnedthatitisnevertoolatetopursueandliveyourdream.(我在做我喜歡的事。在我的旅途中，我明白了追求和實現(xiàn)自己的夢想永遠不會太晚。)”可知，空處對前文總結(jié)，總結(jié)追夢帶來的變化，C選項中“l(fā)ook
