参考答案
答案：
1-5. D A B D C 6-10. B C D A D 11-15. A A C B C 16-20. A D D B C
解析：
1．本题要与下一题连起来考虑。在疲劳的旅行以后，一个人需要好好休息一下．而好好休息就需要一个宁静的环境、故本题选D，符合下文中a good sleep after a tiring trip.
2．选A。指旅行以后当时的身体需要，而B、C、D三项都指当时已发生了的动作．与整句意思不符。句中agree with表示"适合"，再如" The climate here doesn't agree with me. 这儿的气候不适合于我。Fish doesn't agree with me．我不喜欢吃鱼。
3．called me to my room (把我叫到我的房间)，似乎有事要吩咐下级做，不符合店老板与顾客之间的语境。showed me to my room(把我领到我的房间)，根据下文老板与作者在房间里的对话。证明选项B是对的。pointed me to my room 这一短语不成立。sent me to my room (打发我去我的房间)，这一短语的另一层意思是女老板没有领作者到房间，这与下文两人在房间中的对话是矛盾的。
4．选D。serve一词在这里表示"供应"。选项A不合表达习惯，选项B、C和第5题构不成因果关系。
5．选C。missed the dinner表示“没赶上晚饭时间”。作者没有忘记吃晚饭．故A是错的。B表示"已吃了"，D 表示"已订了"，两项均与事实不符。
