Answer 1

答案：C;A;B;D;B;A;C;D;A;C;D;A;B;D;C;A;B;D;D;B
解析：

(1)just在這里相當于only。Tim Becker開車買東西時，不只是去商店，然后就回家。yet然而；still仍然；rather相當。 (2)從上下文可知，他在開車買東西時，仔細觀察周圍情況，以便發現問題。clearly清楚地，nervously緊張地；coldly冷靜地。 (3)只有發生了不正常的事才表明出現了問題。 (4)拉上窗簾的窗戶，開著的窗戶和舊的窗子均不能說明發生了意外的事。只有破碎的窗戶(broken windows)才表明可能發生了意外的事。 (5)belong to屬于，從上下文可知，Tim是這個地方的治安聯保隊隊員。 (6)從文中discuss一詞可知，他們在固定的時間討論社區的安全問題。 (7)這是when引導的表語從句，when指開會的時間。 (8)聯保隊的目的是保衛社區安全，所以討論的應該是社區安全問題，而不是其他。 (9)keep...safe“保衛……的安全”。這里只有keep可接賓語再接賓語補足語，其他的詞不可。 (10)社區是由許多住戶組成，應為their。 (11)happen to sb. 某人發生了什么事。人們似乎認為犯罪發生在別人身上而不會發生在自己身上。 (12)right“權利”任何人都沒有偷別人東西的權利。 (13)任何人都沒有偷別人的東西或使別人家里感到不安全的權利。 (14)look out注意。為了保證全社區的安全，鄰居們都互相注意對方的安全問題。 (15)watch one's homes“看家”。鄰居們相互照顧好家。 (16)a group of“一組，一群”。平常人們三五結隊而行。a set of一套；a number of許多；a crowd of人群。這三個短語都不能和含有數詞的賓語連用。 (17)一旦發生問題要和警察取得聯系。 (18)look for trouble“找麻煩”。當他們注意到一伙年輕人在找麻煩或有人損壞財產時，就向警察報告。 (19)社區聯保隊幫助警察使犯罪率下降。 (20)社區聯保隊做到了警察難以做到的事情。
