Answer 1

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

(1) 副詞exactly修飾介詞短語like the first one,意為“完全像第一枚戒指”。 (2) accepted指“接收”，因商店沒看出破綻，所以把它接受下來。 (3) more valuable意為“更有價(jià)值的”，其它選項(xiàng)不合語境。 (4) fly to a place相當(dāng)于go to a place by plane,根據(jù)文章最后一段中的信息a plane for Paris可知，是乘飛機(jī)到巴黎的。 (5) 根據(jù)文中信息可知珠寶店的那枚戒指是根據(jù)第一枚仿造的，故B項(xiàng)為最佳答案。 (6) bring back意為“拿回來”，return不和back連用。 (7) 說價(jià)格時(shí)常用高低來修飾，而說東西時(shí)，常用貴、便宜來修飾。 (8) facts意為“事實(shí)”。 (9) 從前句中的信息caught fire可推知此處用accident。 (10) but在此表轉(zhuǎn)折。 (11) heat在此作名詞，意為“熱度，熱”。 (12) agree表示同意別人所說的。 (13) ever相當(dāng)于at any time,意為“在任何時(shí)候”。該句的意思是：“他們知道在任何時(shí)候火都不能使寶石受損�！� (14) real的反義詞是faulty。 (15) did在此是個(gè)代動(dòng)詞。它指代上文中的“take the real diamond and put a faulty one in its place”. (16) in the newspapers指把戒指的照片登在報(bào)紙上。 (17) recognize指認(rèn)出原來就知道的人或物，recognize在此符合語境。 (18) show意為“展示，給……看”，此處指報(bào)紙上展示出一個(gè)著名的舞蹈愛走向飛往巴黎的飛機(jī)的情景。 (19) 戴戒指、手表、眼鏡、鮮花等常用wear。 (20) 根據(jù)全文可知戴美麗寶石戒指的人是Jenkins的妻子，故用woman。
