[答案与解析]
1.选B，由于是两个房间，即是两者比较，故宜用比较级，因此排除c和D;又由于两句之间没有连词，故不宜选A。注:若在空格前加上and一词，则要选A。
2.选B。此题关键是要理解Notatall的意思。根据上文语境，Not at all为I am not satisfied at all with his answer之省略，即表示*我对他的回答一点也不满意”，既然如此，他的回答当然会是It couldn't have been worse (不可能更糟)。
3.选C，句意为“我的算术比琼差，但我的历史比她强”。注意句中的转折连词but及其后的better.
4.选A，we couldn't have picked a worst day的实际意思是it is the worst day we ve picked.
5.选A，abetter 为a btterone之省略。另外，abetterone (一个更好的)是与其前文“我知道这不是一一个很合的词”相呼应的。
