2.多项选择题答案
1. c
根据课文第3-4行 I tried to say something, but my mouth was full of cotton wool 可判断只有c. There was something in his mouth 最符合课文的真实情况，这也是作者不能讲话的唯一原因，其他3个选择都不是原因，所以只能选c.
2. b
根据课文第8-10行I suddenly felt very worried,…when the dentist at last removed the cotton wool… I was able to tell him that he had pulled out the wrong tooth 可以判断b. he thought the dentist had pulled out the wrong tooth 是作者着急的唯一原因，其他3个选择都不是他着急的原因，所以选b.
3. c
只有选c. cannot 才能使句子同前一句It is impossible for him to answer.(他是不可能回答的)意义相同,所以c.是正确答案.a. might not 与d .may not 都不符合题目意思. b. could not 时态不对.
4. b
本句是将前一句中表示命令请求的间接引语变成了直接引语(祈使句)。
a. To rest 是动词不定式，不能做祈使句的谓语;
c. Do you rest是疑问句，不能表示请求;
d. Resting 是动名词也不能做祈使句的谓语;
只有b. Rest 可以做祈使句的谓语,所以选b.
5. a
本句是将前一句中的间接疑问句...how my brother was 变成直接疑问句，因此时态和语序都要作相应改变。
b. your brother was, c. your brother is 都不是疑问句语序，所以都不对。
d. was your brother 语序正确，但时态不对：间接引语是过去时，直接引语应该是现在时才正确。只有a. is your brother 语序和时态都正确，所以应该选a.
6. c
这是一个疑问句，a. It likes you , b. Does it like you 和d. Like you 这3个选择都意思不通，不符合题目意思，只有c. Do you like 意思通顺，符合疑问句语序，因此只能选c.
7. b
介词by 后面加动名词可以表示方式。 本句只能选b. nodding(点头)，因为它是动名词，可以放在by 后面作方式状语。 其他3个选择都不能放在介词by 后面，所以选b.
8. b
本句需要选一个同前一句中时间短语for a while (一会儿)意义相同的短语。a. quietly (安静地)，c. while he spoke to me (当他跟我说话时)，d. for a long time (很久)这3个选择都与for a while 的意义不符。 只有b. for a short time (短时间)同for a while 的含义相同，因此选b.
9. d
a. assembly (集会，聚会)，b. gathering (聚集，收集抽象的东西，如消息等)，c. congregation (聚集，聚合) ， d. collection (收集，收藏如邮票，硬币等)，只有d最适合这个句子，其他3个选择都不能与火柴盒连用，所以选d.
10. a
前一句 I nodded(我点头)表示同意，只有a. agreed (同意)才是这一动作所表达的含义。b. said no (说不)，c. shouted (高喊)，d. whispered (耳语) 这3个选择都不是nodded所表达的含义，所以选a.
11. b
本句需要选出同前一句中的Meanwhile(同时)意义相同的词或短语。
a. However(不过，然而);b. In the mean time(同时);c. Never the less(尽管如此，不过);d. Although(虽然);这4个选择中只有b.同Meanwhile 的意义相同，所以选b.
12. c
a. took it off (脱下)，b. took it in (理解)，c. took it out (取出)，和d. took it up (从事于)4个选择中只有c. took it out 同前一句He removed the cotton wool from my mouth(他将药棉从我嘴里取出)的含义相同，所以选c.
