Later that day, I happened to pass Jeff in the dining room. I offered him a __37__ “Congratulations” and walked to my usual table. To my surprise, Jeff put his plate beside mine.
“I’m, er—I’m just wondering if you would …consider coming to work on my team,” he said__38__. “You are really smart, and you would be a great manager.”
“I don’t think so,” I replied, feeling unsure.
“Well, if you change your mind, we are meeting tomorrow,” he said before moving to another table.

【小題1】D解析:

【小題1】本題考查動詞的運用，聯(lián)系上下文，由上文給出the last candidate(候選人) ，可知下文對應的動詞應該是 be chosen。
【小題1】本題考查形容詞表感情色彩，聯(lián)系上下文，由本段出現(xiàn)的第一個形容詞usual 來判斷作者的感情色彩是平淡的，故排除B. loud和D. cheerful選項，再由to my surprise 來判斷，作者與Jeff的關系不是非常親密所以排除C warm選項。
【小題1】本題是對副詞的考查，由er，wondering，would...等詞可知，Jeff表現(xiàn)得比較緊張，所以答案選擇nervously。
【小題1】本題考查的是詞語辨析，advice指的是忠告，多指醫(yī)生對病人，長輩對晚輩； message 多指口信，轉述客觀事實且通常不帶有主觀上的感情色彩；chance 最大的干擾選項 因為下文出現(xiàn)個chance ,但是chance表示的一種可能性；抽象名詞 offer 作為名詞表示提議。聯(lián)系上文可知D為最佳答案。
【小題1】本題考查代詞的運用，聯(lián)系上下文主語都是I，所以答案選擇me。
【小題1】本題考查動詞辨析，由于當時advertisement 已經存在，可以排除invent；在剩下的選項中，我們進行個排序就會發(fā)現(xiàn)：第一步 create ；第二步print ；第三步：send 。這正好與上文提到first goal相呼應，所以答案選擇C。
【小題1】本題考查介詞搭配，最能凸顯出 poster 效果的介詞是without，否定介詞與前面的no相呼應，雙重否定表肯定。
【小題1】本題考查動詞短語辨析，carry out 實施， try out 嘗試， work out 解決 find out 找出（事實），查明（真相），結合上下文，wanted a chess club and a volleyball team,下文的 collect information可以得出答案是D。
【小題1】本題考查動詞辨析，聯(lián)系上下文可以知道：校長同意了（agree）我們的提議。
【小題1】本題考查動詞的熟詞生義，receive在此表示的是“接納”，并不是我們所熟悉的“收到”。
【小題1】本題考查名詞辨析，聯(lián)系上下文，我和Jeff的工作得到了他人的認可，心中感到自豪和滿足，故答案選擇A。
【小題1】本題考查名詞，聯(lián)系上下文，由上文提到the most popular …那么用下列四個詞概括下就是Jeff的成功，故答案選擇D。
