20、觉”。11C解析:由文章最后一段的“噩梦”可知他没有睡好。12D解析:学生说他的作业没有做是因为晚上没睡好,帕特问:这与作业有何关系?13A解析:学习最差的学生竟然能用英语做梦了,帕特当然感到惊奇。14C解析:惊奇之余,“还(also)”有点嫉妒,因为她还不能用西班牙语做梦。15D解析:由上文“And my dream was in English”及上下文语境可知,帕特嫉妒的是自己还没有用西班牙语做梦。16C解析:用动词tell,和me about your dream搭配表示“告诉我关于你的梦”。其他选项与句意不符。17C解析:由下文可知,该学生梦中的人都说英语,他自己却一句也不懂。18A
21、解析:学生能够用英语做梦是这位老师梦寐以求的事情,因此应用wonderful。19B解析:Thats why.“那是的原因”。20B解析:既然是噩梦,所以应是听不懂对方在说什么。.短文改错Great changes have been taken place in the way people communicate each other.In the past people write letters to share informations and later they talked with each other on the telephone.Now more and more p
