Even though it was only October, my students were already whispering about Christmas plans. With each passing day everyone became more anxious, waiting for the final school bell. Upon its 1 everyone would run for their coats and go home, everyone except David
David was a small boy in ragged clothes.

My mum told me before she died tha t love was something you couldn’t see or touch unless you know it’s there.”Tears filled my eyes 11I looked at the proud dirty face that I had rarely given attention to. After that Christmas, David and I became good friends and I never forgot the meaning 12 the little empty box set on my desk.

1．B 提示：剧目成功，以致连续上演好几年，这对可怜的演员来说可倒霉了。

因为下文说他们必须夜夜重复同样的台词，故unfortunate（不幸的，倒霉的）为最佳答案。

2．A 提示：重复同一台词是令人厌烦的。

3．C 提示：expect意为“期待，认为”。

人们认为演员一定要把台词背得烂熟。

4．B 提示：人们认为演员绝对不会结巴的。

5．B 提示：指代前面所说的情况。

6．A 提示：high意为“高的”。

highly意为“高度地，极为”。

7．D 提示：此处先行词为人，故要用who引导定语从句。

8．B 提示：尽管那个贵族每场戏都得念一遍那些信，但他还是坚持要求将信的全文写在信纸上。

even though引导让步状语从句，比though语气更强。

11．D 提示：熟记信的内容。

12．A 提示：appeared意为“出现，露面”，此处指上场。

15．C 提示：狱卒热切地观察着，急于想了解他的同事是否熟记了台词。

16．B 提示：“光线太暗”这是贵族委婉而又聪明的托辞，因为他记不住台词。

17．D 提示：分词短语作状语，表示时间。

当狱卒发现自己连一个字也记不得时，也找了个借口。

18．A 提示：下文：“with a pair of glasses”作了暗示。

19．D 提示：“much to one’s＋表示感情的名词”结构，有“给某人带来很大的……”的意思，此处狱卒的表现使贵族感到可笑。

20．A 提示：the usual copy平时使用的那封信。
