20.C这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者八岁时一次借钱的经历。本来作者只借了姐姐10美元，可是最终作者的债务累加到了21.43美元。经过这次经历，作者明白了借钱可能会给自己带来双重麻烦这个道理。【1题详解】考查动词辨析。句意：我去她房间，请求她借给我钱。A.begging请求；B.blaming指责；C.searching搜寻；D.preparing准备。根据常理，我需要钱，所以肯定是恳求姐姐借给我钱。故选A。【2题详解】考查动词辨析。句意：她笑着同意借给我钱，但是又加了一句“每月按照利滚利收我10%的利息，直到我还完钱”。A.suggested建议；B.swore咒骂，诅咒；C.explained解释；D.added补充说，增加。根据句意，姐姐补充说要收我利息。故选D。【3题详解】考查名词词义辨析。句意同上。A.month月；B.year年；C.week周；D.day日。由第三段中的“Torepaytheloan,youwillneedtogiveme$11afteronemonth（偿还贷款，一个月后你需要给我11美金）”可知，姐姐答应借给我钱，但是要我每个月付10%的利息。故选A。【4题详解】考查形容词词义辨析。句意：她说：“利息是借钱人在归还贷款时额外付的钱。”A.little不多的，小的；B.extra额外的；C.enough足够的；D.same同样的。根据常识，利息就是还钱时本钱之外的钱。故选B。【5题详解】考查形容词比较级。句意：利滚利就是你还钱用的时间越长，利息就会越来越多。A.shorter更短的；B.more更多的；C.longer更长的；D.less更少的。根据下文的解释，SoI’llbechargingyouintereston$11.ThenIwilladdthatinteresttothe$11youalreadyoweme（我将按11美金计算利息。然后会将利息加在你欠我的11美金上。）可知，归还贷款需要的时间越长，所需支付的利息就越多。故选C。【6题详解】考查名词辨析。句意：如果你等两个月归还我的钱，那么，你的债务将从10美元增加到11美元。A.cash现金；B.debt债务；C.note钞票；D.saving积蓄。根据句意，我借了姐姐的钱，就相当于我有了债务，空格处单词与下文I’m__13__yourdebt中的debt呼应。故选B。【7题详解】考查名词辨析。句意：我将把利息加在你已经欠我的11美金上，总共是12.1美金。A.total总数；B.cost花费，成本；C.number数目；D.bill账单。根据句意，如果作者两个月才归还姐姐的钱的话，那么，利滚利，最终作者要归还的总数为12.10美元。故选A。【8题详解】考查形容词辨析。句意：我说：“好的，我明白了”。但是，说实话，我很困惑。A.encouraged受到鼓励的；B.shocked震惊的；C.satisfied满意；D.confused困惑的。根据though可知，我告诉姐姐我明白了，其实我很困惑。故选D。【9题详解】考查副词辨析。句意：不幸地是，那笔钱恰恰就是我特别想买的另一个玩具所需要的钱。A.Gradually逐渐地；B.Obviously明显地；C.Hopefully充满希望地；D.Unfortunately不幸地。根据下文“Afteranothermonth,Iforgotabouttheloan.（又一个月后，我忘了贷款）”可知，作者没有还姐姐钱，贷款越积压越多，所以回想起来是不幸的。故选D。【10题详解】考查副词辨析。句意同上。A.seriously严肃地，认真地；B.desperately极度地；C.secretly秘密地；D.willingly甘心情愿。由下句I_____11_____payingmysisterforamonth.Afteranothermonth,Iforgotabouttheloan.（我决定推迟一个月还钱。又一个月过去了，我忘记了贷款）可知，作者用钱买了另一个礼物，所以这个礼物是作者非常想买的。故选B。【11题详解】考查动词短语。句意：我把还姐姐钱的计划推迟了一个月。A.decidedon决定；B.putoff

推迟，拖延；C.gaveaway放弃；D.caredabout关心。由下文“Afteranothermonth,Iforgotabouttheloan.（又一个月后，我忘了贷款）”可知，作者想着推迟一个月还钱，可是过了一个月，作者忘记了贷款这事。故选B。【12题详解】考查时间状语从句的连词。句意：当我正要把20美元放到我口袋里时，姐姐拍了拍我的肩膀。A.after在……之后；B.when当……时候；C.while当……时候；D.until直到……。根据句意，这是一个时间状语从句，连词意为“当……时候”。虽然when和while都可以表达“当……时候”，但是while后一般接进行时态，when后接一般时态。由空格后使用的一般过去时，可知选when。故选B。【13题详解】考查动词辨析。句意：“抱歉，kiddo。那是我的。我要收债了。”A.carrying携带，运送；B.relying依靠；C.collecting收取；D.focusing（使）集中。根据句意，姐姐要收债了。故选C。【14题详解】考查动词辨析。句意：那是我想起了我的贷款。A.neglect忽视；B.complained抱怨；C.stated陈述，说明；D.remembered记起。此空格处单词与上文中“Afteranothermonth,Iforgotabouttheloan.（又一个月后，我忘了贷款）”中的forgot形成反义呼应。故选D。【15题详解】考查动词辨析。句意：我拒绝相信10美金的贷款能如此快地翻倍。A.decided决定；B.pretended假装；C.refused拒绝；D.managed设法做到。由下句mysistergotherpencilandtabletandshowedmeexactlyhowitall__17__（姐姐拿出纸笔给我精确地计算）可知，作者一开始是不相信的。故选C。【16题详解】考查名词辨析。句意：令我感到生气的是，姐姐拿来铅笔和便签簿，向我精确地展示这个钱数是怎么来的。A.relief缓解；B.delight高兴；C.annoyance恼怒；D.regret后悔，遗憾。根据句意，作者本来就不相信，姐姐还拿出纸笔来证明，作者更生气了。故选C。【17题详解】考查动词短语。句意同上。A.addedup累计；B.showedup出现，露面；C.turnedup露面，找出；D.spedup加速。由上文中第三段描述的利息的计算方法可知，贷款和利息的钱是慢慢累计出来的。故选A。【18题详解】考查动词辨析。句意：当我想尽办法弄清楚Kathleen的计算时，我头疼了，但是这次我了解了利滚利的基础知识。A.turned转动；B.hurt疼痛；C.stuck粘贴，粘；D.nodded点头。空格处单词与上文中第八题Iwasgettingconfused呼应，作者不清楚利滚利怎么计算，所以认真研究起来很头疼。故选B。【19题详解】考查名词辨析。句意同上。A.idea主意、概念、想法；B.lesson课程；C.benefit利益；D.discovery发现。根据句意，作者是想尽办法理解利滚利的概念，故选A。【20题详解】考查形容词辨析。句意：我从这个痛苦的经历中知道了借钱很快就可能带来双倍的麻烦。A.unfair不公平的；B.worthless没用的，无价值的；C.painful痛苦的；D.decisive决定性的，关键的。根据全文的描述，作者借了10美金，糊里糊涂间，几个月内就翻倍了，是一场痛苦的经历。故选C。三、阅读理解22.共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）
