19.A 由上文可知,馬拉松是在十一月份的早上開始,因此天氣很寒冷,因此答案選A.
20.D 根據(jù)語境可知,我們跑過Verrazano-Narrows Bridge,from Staten Island into Brooklyn,因此選D.
21.D urge sb.on意思是"催促我們繼續(xù)向前跑",此處on為副詞,意為"繼續(xù)(下去),向前"
22.A 根據(jù)前面可知作者在5英里是狀態(tài)最佳,但是在途中休息后卻很難達到最佳狀態(tài).have trouble (in)doing sth意思是"做某事有困難",因此選A.

2.Ulrich's friend Anne was missing at school. His mother said that perhaps she had gone into hiding. That was the hope anyway-that the family had left on their own and had not been sent on one of the prison trains to Germany or Poland.  So many people in his city had disappeared since the Nazis came to Amsterdam in 1940."It's not our home anymore,"Ulrich thought. The streets,once full of busy shoppers,were now filled with tanks and-soldiers. No one felt safe,except may-be the collaborators(叛徒,通敵者).
   Who were they?Who would betray(背叛) their friends and let their neighbors be captured?Ulrich remembered his friend Anne; her father had a small business right down the road from his house. Her sister,Margot,was in the upper school,where Ulrich's sister was in her class.
   When he walked to or from school,Ulrich studied the faces of the people on the street.Some looked concerned and cast their eyes downward as they walked,try ring not to be noticed.His own parents had that look,like ghosts walking and wondering what had happened to them,The ones that bothered him were those who smiled,who acted like nothing was wrong."Were they blind?"he wondered. Worse were those-who moved into the houses and took the businesses of their missing neighbors. They seemed too assured,too content. They may be Dutch,Ulrich thought,but they are the enemy,too. They were the ones who made the occupation easy. He hoped that when the war was over,the rightful owners would come back and throw them out on their ears.
   School was not the same either. It was ore than the missing students,though that was the biggest part of it. The teachers,who once seemed to know everything,were different,too.  They seemed afraid to teach history,afraid that the authorities would not like what they said. They jumped when a student dropped a book.  It was as if they al.l had to hold their breath.  It was nearly spring. Already tulips(郁金香) were fighting their way out of the cold ground. How many more winters,springs,summers",and falls would go by until they were free?Ulrich waited,and hoped that his friend Anne would soon come home.  

39.When Ulrich says,"It's not our home anymore?"he means.C
A. they've moved to a new city
B. the buildings don't look the same
C. the city feels strange and unfamiliar
D. spring flowers make the neighborhood unrecognizable
40.What has changed in Amsterdam?B
A. There is a new family next door.
B. The people's attitudes and security.
C. There is more freedom among the citizens.
D. The subjects Ulrich was studying in school.
41.What does the underlined sentence"No one felt safe,except maybe the collaborators."mean?D
A. People were afraid of an invasion.
B. There might be a natural disaster any time.
C. People who work together are more secure than others,.
D. Only the people who were  e ping the Nazis felt comfortable.
42.The part of the setting related to people instead of place has changed in all of the following EX-CEPT that.D
A.shopkeepers and neighbors have been replaced by other people
