{{B}}
Text{{/B}} As my wife greeted me one evening,
her voice came through the door, "Guess what?" I always take a
deep {{U}}(26) {{/U}} on this very leading question. "What?" I
asked. "I just won a sales contest at work and the {{U}}(27)
{{/U}} is dinner for two at the new fancy restaurant down by the
river-front!" She was so {{U}}(28) {{/U}}. We knew the
restaurant was extremely good. "See? I told you there would be a {{U}}(29)
{{/U}} for me to wear my new spring outfit," she shyly reminded
me. "{{U}} (30) {{/U}} can play at that game," I
responded, "I will wear my gray suit, my Borsalino-imported straw hat and a new
silk tie. We will be well {{U}}(31) {{/U}}." It was early {{U}}(32)
{{/U}} and nearing dusk as the waiter took us to a table by a window, with
a(n) {{U}}(33) {{/U}} of the river. And the table was {{U}}(34)
{{/U}} set, with a smoke-gray table cloth and bright colored
napkins. A delicious meal {{U}}(35) {{/U}} in such an
atmosphere should be remembered a long time. As it {{U}}(36) {{/U}},
this will probably never be forgotten. As the shadows
lengthened, the {{U}}(37) {{/U}} rocking by the riverbank, I murmured,
"Why not take a walk?" Hand in hand, we walked by the stores.
People smiled and nodded. "I {{U}}(38) {{/U}} realized there were so
many {{U}}(39) {{/U}} people as we have seen this evening, dear," I
observed. "Probably your new straw hat or your {{U}}(40)
{{/U}}," she said. After receiving many smiles, we
{{U}}(41) {{/U}} ourselves back at the restaurant, looking at ourselves
in the {{U}}(42) {{/U}} . It was then that I saw the {{U}}(43)
{{/U}} for all the smiles. Caught in the fly of my trousers
and {{U}}(44) {{/U}} down for all to see was a bright red {{U}}(45)
{{/U}} from the restaurant!

B
【答案解析】考查名词与搭配。sigh 叹息(一般与breathe、give连用)；breath呼吸(一般与take、hold、have等连用)；surprise惊讶(一般与give连用)；thought想法(一般与have连用)。take a deep breath指“深吸一口气”(表示惊讶等)，符合语法和语境。
