Don’t mention old offences from last month or last year. By doing this, you 4 attention from the problem at hand. Moreover, 5 you complain, don’t add insults.

(答案→)A 解析：本文作者论述怎样发牢骚，在生活中我们不要直接的朝别人抱怨，要讲究方法，作者给我们提出几条建议，大家不妨试试。【小题1】考查语境的理解。从上下文分析知道，这里是作者提到的第一个建议，所以用To start with表示“首先”；frankly speaking坦白地说；anyway无论如何, 总之；needless to say不必说。【小题2】考查形动词词意辨析和语境的理解。从语境知道表示在宴会上的行为，表现。【小题3】。考查形容词词意辨析和语境的理解。从上文说道的宴会和下文的不礼貌举止，知道是喝醉了。【小题4】考查动词词组意思辨析和语境的理解。take away 取走；set off出发, 动身, 使爆炸, 引起,；draw up草拟, 停住；catch up追上, 吸住。从语境知道，当谈论现在的事情时，最好不要涉及到以前的事，因为那样会分散对手头上事情的注意力。【小题5】考查连词词意辨析和语境的理解。从上下文知道这里表示时间，即：当抱怨时，不要侮辱人。【小题6】考查副词词意辨析和语境的理解。如果你在抱怨时，开口骂对方，将仅仅增加愤怒和失去别人聆听你的话的机会。【小题7】考查动词词组意思辨析和语境的理解。综合上文，这里表示“听”。【小题8】考查固定搭配和语境的理解。for that matter (=for the matter of that)关于那一点, 就此而言, 对此, 就那件事而论。【小题9】考查名词词意辨析和语境的理解。在第三者面前批评别人等于在骂他。【小题10】考查语境的理解。这里是对上文建议的总结，从整体文章的大意以及上面的总结：形式要特殊；只说现在的事情；私下抱怨，可以推测这里是说“不要有辱骂性的语言”。

这个答案应该是对的
