n)重地"，proudly意為"驕傲地"，admitted意為"公認(rèn)的"．均不符合文意．故正確答案為C．16．A考查動詞辨析結(jié)合文意，并且很堅定地（mitted）練習(xí)大提琴以至于在幾個月內(nèi)演奏的相當(dāng)?shù)暮茫畊sed意為"習(xí)慣的；二手的"，limited意為"有限的"，admitted意為"公認(rèn)的；被承認(rèn)的"．均不符合文意．故正確答案為A．17．D考查動詞辨析．結(jié)合文意，這意味著（mean）他要到校很早．This指代前文提到的Gabriel練習(xí)大提琴．stress意為"強(qiáng)調(diào)；使緊張"，prove意為"證明；檢驗"，show意為"展示"．均不符合文意．故正確答案為D．18．B考查動詞辨析．結(jié)合文意，拖著（drag）他沉重的樂器箱穿過校園．與文章第一段相呼應(yīng)．push意為"推"，lift意為"舉起"，rush意為"趕；搶"．均不符合文意．故正確答案為B．19．B考查動詞辨析．結(jié)合文意，非音樂生憐憫的（pitying）看法．與文章第一段相呼應(yīng)．a(chǎn)dmire意為"欽佩；贊美"，annoy意為"騷擾；使煩惱"，tease意為"取笑；戲弄"．均不符合文意．故正確答案為B．20．C考查動詞短語辨析．結(jié)合文意，他已經(jīng)把非音樂生憐憫的看法拋在身后（behind）．leaveover意為"剩下"，leaveaside意為"擱置"，leaveout意為"忽略，忘記"．均不符合文意．故正確答案為C．閱讀理解A【答案】CDBD【解析】23.考查文章細(xì)節(jié)理解，根據(jù)最后一段“Mr.PenningtongaveBenjaminmaterialsforcreatingoilp
