It turned out that the letter had been 8 for Johnson, who happened to be 9 . They talked for a little while, and later on he 10 . Then they started dating and had been going 11 together ever since.

(答案→)B 解析：文章讲述了“我”做为一名邮递员一时的疏忽把信给送错了，收到信的这个女士把信送到了它真正的主人的手里，碰巧的是两个人都是单身，从此他们都对对方有了感情。正是我的大意成就了两个人的结合，成就了一桩幸福的婚姻。【小题1】B考查名词的词义。句意为：七年前的一天，我开车去一个邮箱。telephone 电话； mailbox 邮箱，邮筒；school 学校；shop 商店。由前文我是一个邮递员可知这里是去信箱。【小题2】A考查名词词义。句意为：一个离了婚的年轻女士站在路边正在等我，她说要给我讲个故事。Story故事；notice通知，通告； fact真相，事实； message消息，信息。从下文来看，应是一个故事。【小题3】B考查副词词义。句意为：大约在六个月前。after adv 在---之后；earlier adv 更早，早在---之前；later adv 后来；ago adv在---之前。One day several years ago是七年前的事情，由此可知，这个女士告诉我的应该是在此之前的六个月，所以应为更早之前。故答案应为B【小题4】C考查动词词义。句意为：我邮递给她了一封信，上面有她的街道号。sent 送，派遣；written 写； delivered 邮递；given 给。因为我是一句邮递员，所以这里应为邮递的意思，答案应为C。【小题5】D考查名词词义。句意为：上面有她的街道号。这里下文的第六个空number是一个提示。mark 标志，符号； sign迹象，记号；board 木板，甲板； number 数，号码。【小题6】C考查形容词词义。句意为：街道号相同而街道的名字不同，所以有相同的街道号，正是这一点，作者把信给送错了。correct adj 正确的; wrong adj 错误的； same adj 相同的；different adj 不同的。【小题7】B考查动词短语的含义。句意：她决定把这封信给正确的主人送过去。put down 镇压，记下；drop off 放下，放弃；hand out 分发，施舍；give away 泄露。这里是把这封信送去。【小题8】D考查动词短语的意思。句意为：这封信正是给Johnson的。provided 提供，供给；prepared为---做准备；inferred 推测出的；intended打算为---所用，预定给---。所以答案应为D。【小题9】B考查短语的含义。句意为：这个人正好也是单身。free adj 自由的；single adj 单一的，单身的；lonely adj 寂寞的；simple adj 简单的。所以应为B。【小题10】C考查动词词义。句意为：后来，他就打电话给她，然后他们就开始约会。left 离开； invited邀请；called 打电话； introduced 介绍。由后面的约会可知先是打电话沟通，而不是邀请。【小题11】A考查动词短语的含义。句意从那时起，他们开始一起外出。go out 外出；go in参加，放得进； go away走开；go off 离开，动身。【小题12】B考查形容词的词义。句意为：我为我的送错信而抱歉，但我高兴的是我把这两个人聚在了一起。amazed adj 令人吃惊的； pleased adj 令人高兴的； surprised adj 令人吃惊的 interested adj 使人感兴趣的。【小题13】D考查短语的含义。句意为：几个月之后，一个“出售”的牌子在Christy的院子里挂了起来。On sale 廉价出售，这里文中没有反映出是廉价出售；for sale 出售，待售。【小题14】C考查名词词义。句意为：发出了婚礼的请柬。arrangements 安排，布置；preparation 准备；invitations 邀请，请柬；announcements通知，通告。这里sent out发出去的应该是请柬。【小题15】B考查连词词义。句意为：婚礼举行了，顺其自然的是Christy和她的孩子们搬到了Johnson的家里，这是指顺承关系。【小题16】D考查代词的词义。句意为：几个月之后，我在他们的院子里又看到了一个待售的牌子。因为他们搬到了一起。所以应为他们。【小题17】C考查名词词义。句意为：我害怕，他们的婚姻出现了危机。friendship n 友谊；connection n联系，关系；marriage n 婚姻；wedding 婚礼。他们已经结过婚了，由此应知为婚姻。答案为C。【小题18】C考查名词词义。句意为：我就找了借口去看一下他们出了什么问题。apology n 道歉；trouble n 麻烦；excuse n 借口，托辞； regret n 遗憾，后悔。【小题19】A考查动词词义。check vt 查，核查；examine vt 检测，调查；test vt 测试； try vt 尝试，努力；这里是指，我找个借口要去看看到底是不是婚姻出现了问题。所以check比较合适。【小题20】D考查动词词义。句意：我们有了一对双胞胎，房子太小了，不得不搬家。change vt 改变，改换；settle vt定居；separate vt 分开；move vt 转移，搬家。考点: 考查故事类文章的理解及词汇的辨析。
