名师点评
这是一个幽默故事，看后令人忍俊不禁。也许Mrs. Richards的化装技巧太捧了，也许，查表员的胆子也太小了——大白天的怎么可能有鬼呢？不过，如果你遇到这种情况，那会怎么样呢？
答案简析
1.D。一切准备就绪，只等去化装舞会了，所以该是激动得无法做家务。
2.A。补充说明激动的原因，只有用for最为到位。
3.B。本句是初中生不太熟悉的主语从句，play在这里是“扮演”的意思。意为“她所想扮演的是一个可怕的妖怪”。
4.A。根据下文的意思，有转折关系，所以用though。
5.C。她想看看是否穿着舒服。
6.A。就在这时有敲门声。
7.B。从下文可知她很有把握，“准是面包师”。
8.D。fail to do sth. “没做成某事”。用not语法不对，而用had ,tried不符合意思 。
9.B。她不想吓着这个人。
10.D。因此，她就躲藏到楼梯下的贮藏室中。
11.D。这时她才意识到自己的判断错误。
