（1）考查形容词。A. temporary“暂时的”；B. easy“容易的”；C. proper“合适的”；D. impossible“不可能的”。根据上文可知作者的公司不景气，作者希望那只是“暂时的”，故选A。

（3）考查名词。A. research“研究”；B. service“服务”；C. design“设计”；D. class“班级”。根据下文作者去家乡一位老人家里打扫可知，他们周五去家乡做一些服务项目。故选B。（4）考查名词。A. company“公司”；B. house“房子”；C. office“办公室”；D. room“房间”。根据下文“do a total cleanup”可知是去一位很老的老人的房子进行大扫除。故选B。

（5）考查动词。句意：当我们到的时候，一位年长的女士在门口给我们打招呼。A. showed“展示”；B. he lped“帮助”；C. invited“邀请”；D. greeted“问候，打招呼”。故选D。（6）考查名词。A. colleague“同事”；B. wife“妻子”；C. daughter“女儿”；D. partner“伙伴”。根据下文“She was 75, and her father 97”可知她是老人的女儿，故选C。

（9）考查副词。A. individually“分别地”；B. together“一起”；C. alone“独自地”；D. equally“平等地”。作者不止一个人去了老人的家，所以是一起工作的。故选B。

（10）考查动词。句意：我们完工时，那位先生的房子从土堆变成了一座闪闪发光的干净宫殿。A. f inished“完成”；B. washed“洗”；C. started“开始”；D. arrived“到达”。故选A。（11）考查连词。句意：然而，那天我记得最深刻的事情，并不是我们所做的伟大的清洁工作。A. however“然而”；B. therefore“因此”；C. instead“而不是”；D. moreover“而且”。前后文为转折关系故用转折连词。故选A。
