单选题 A (n) ______ gives you definite ______ and arrival dates, and a list of all your destinations.

【正确答案】 D

【答案解析】句意：一份行程表会告知你确定的出发和到达日期和你所有的目的地的列表。itinerary行程，路线。itinerary指行程表，旅行的时间安排。timetable本身没有安排或计划的意思，可以是一些固定的时间表，常常针对的是一系列事件的时间的细节，如列车时刻表railway timetable。scheme指计划，方案，不涉及时间概念。agenda是会议的议程，待办事项表。departure离开，出发，常见于火车等交通工具。parting分手，分离，常指情侣间的分手或死亡造成的分离。quitting放弃。由题意可知，本题与旅行相关，所以选D。

【正确答案】 B

【答案解析】句意：牛津是一个使人兴奋的城市，那些被它吓到的人迫不及待地要离开，而那些喜欢它的则如鱼得水一般一次次的回来。intimidated和threatened都有“受到威胁，害怕”意思，但intimidated暗指存在迫使人行动或使人不再行动的令人害怕的力量，threatened常指存在不安或不祥的征兆。deprived被剥夺。maltreated被虐待。根据句意，“等不及离开”的原因应是“被吓到了”，所以选B。
