Dario\'s mother smiled at Mrs.Gilbert.“I think maybe we__15__you an apology，” she said.“I didn\'t__16__how late it was when we were playing.Maybe we should play some quieter music at night.”
“You play, you play！” Mrs.Gilbert said.“I like what you play! Just not so loud at night.” She pointed to the book she had given them.“These songs are not such__17__music.”
“These songs are beautiful music，” Dario\'s mother said.“We will be__18__to play them in the evening.” “And we won\'t play so loud or late！” Dario said.He was already looking forward to__19__the new music.More than that, however, he was happy to see the big smile on his mother\'s face.It gave him a feeling of__20__and made him feel that they were home at last. 文章大意：搬进新居的母子俩深夜弹奏钢琴以庆祝乔迁之喜，不料引起邻居的不满。儿子达里奥想到一个主意：何不邀请邻居来家做客，盛情接待？此举果然奏效，邻居纷纷携礼物前来，甚至有人赠送他们一本肖邦的音乐书。一场邻里矛盾因为彼此的尊重和包容而轻松化解。
1．A.sat C．lay
B.stood D.walked
答案：A 句意为：那天晚上，母子俩并排坐在钢琴前。下文说到他们弹奏音乐，结合常识此处应该是坐(sat)在钢琴旁。stand意为“站立”，lie意为“躺；位于”，walk意为“行走”，均不符合语境。
2．A.voice C．music
B.ring D.cry
3．A.therefore C．otherwise
B.however D.instead
答案：B 逻辑推理题。根据空后的their happiness disappeared与前段中的made them feel very happy可知，上下文之间是转折关系，故选however，意为“然而，但是”。therefore意为“因此，所以”；otherwise 意为“否则”；instead意为“相反”。
4．A.note C．bill
B.poster D.report
答案：A 根据第七段中So I wrote a short note.可知此处应选note，为原词复现。poster意为“海报；招贴画”，bill意为“账单”，report意为“报道；报告”，均与文意不符。
