A complaint (投訴) was received by the Pontiac Department of General Motors. It said: “This is the second time I have written to you, and I don't     1      you for not answering me, because I sounded crazy. After dinner, our family would     2      on which kind of ice cream we should have and then I'll     3      them to get the ‘winner’. I have recently    4      a new Pontiac car and since then my return trips have become     5      y time I buy the vanilla(香草味的)ice cream, my car will     6     . However, if I get any other flavors. the car starts just fine.”

The Pontiac president was     7      about the letter, but sent an engineer to    8      this thing anyway. One day, accompanied by the     9      , the customer drove to the store after dinnertime. It was the vanilla ice cream that night and     10      , after they came back, the car     11      to start. The engineer conducted the     12      for three more nights. On the first two nights, they got the chocolate flavor and the car started. The car didn't start after the customer ordered the vanilla flavor on the third night. The engineer, a     15      man, opposed that this man's car was     1 3     to the vanilla ice cream. So he     14      his visits.

Eventually, his work     16       fact, different kinds of ice cream were     17      distributed(分佈) in the store. The vanilla flavor was quite a     18      and was put in the front of the store. The     19      time taken to get other flavors in the back allowed the engine to cool down. When the man got the vanilla ice cream, the engine was still too hot to start.

Even     20      problems are sometimes real. And it can be simple only when we find the solution with cool thinking

【回答】

1.B; 2.A; 3.D; 4.C; 5.A; 6.D; 7.C; 8.A; 9.D; 10.C;

11.B; 12.C; 13.D; 14.B; 15.A; 16.C; 17.D; 18.A; 19.B; 20.B 解析：1.根據下文because I sounded crazy可知,投訴者覺得自己的投訴聽起來很瘋狂,所以雖然對方沒有回覆,投訴者也不“責備"。故blame正確。 2.根據下文then I'll _________ them to get the ‘winner’ 可知,投訴者一家會“投票”決定吃哪種*激凌。故vote正確。 3.根據下文Every time I buy the vanilla ice cream, my car will ________.可知,投訴者是“開車”帶家人去買*激凌的。故選D項。 4.根據全文可知,這是給汽車公司的一封投訴信,結合空後and since then my return trips have become...可知,投訴者“購買”了一輛新車。故選C項。 5.根據下文可知,投訴者發現,自己購買*激凌的口味和汽車是否能發動有關聯,這是“難以解釋的”。故選A項。 6.根據下文However, if l get any other flavour, the car starts just fine.可知,如果投訴者買其他口味的*激凌,車子就會正常發動。根據表示轉折的副詞However可知,每次投訴者購買香草口味的*激凌,車子就會出故障。故選D項。 7.空後的but表示轉折,逗號後分句表示汽車公司派出了工程師, 逗號前分句應表示公司領導“懷疑”此事。故選C項。 8. 根據下文 The engineer conducted the _________ for three more nights.可知,工程師是來“調查”此事。故選A項。 9.根據上文but sent an engineer to _________ this thing anyway 可知,公司派出了工程師,此時,這位顧客應是在“工程師”的陪同下, 來買*激凌。故選D項。 10.根據上下文可知,這次購買的是香草口味的*激凌,不出所料, 車子不能啟動。故選C項。 11.根據下文The car didn’t start after the customer ordered the vanilla flavour on the third night.可知這次購買的是香草口味的*激凌,車子“未能”啟動。故選B項。 12.根據下文可知,工程師又陪顧客去購買*激凌,這是進行“試驗”,想要查出原因。故選C項。 13.根據下文可知,這位工程師針對問題,進行了多次試驗,最後查明原因,可見,他是“邏輯嚴謹的”人。故選D項。 14.根據上文可知,顧客購買香草口味的*激凌,車子就不能啟動, 而如果購買其他口味的*激凌,車子就發動正常。從表面上看,汽車對香草*激凌“過敏”,但這位工程師反對這種說法。故選B項。 15.根據本段可知,此時問題原因並沒有查明,根據下一段可知,問題原因最後查明瞭,因此,該空是這位工程師“繼續”他的拜訪。故選A項。 16.根據下文可知,問題原因最後查明瞭,可見他的工作“取得了進展”。progress在此處作動詞,意為“進展;進步”。故選C項。 17.根據下文可知,香草*激凌被擺放在商店的前排,其他口味的*激凌被放在後排,由此可見,不同口味*激凌分佈在“不同”位置。故選D項。 18.根據空後可知香草*激凌被擺放在商店的前排,由此可見,香草*激凌是非常成功的商品(非常暢銷)。故選A項。 19.根據空後…get other flavours in the back可知,購買其他口味的*激凌,需要到後排,這就需要花費“額外的”時間。故選B項。 20.根據全文可知,上述問題看起來是“荒謬的”該空與首段的I don’t _______ you for not answering me, because I sounded crazy相呼應。故選B項。
