（3）句意：这个聪明的学生很快发现逃地铁票很容易。easy意为容易的；difficult意为困难的；free意为空闲的；worth意为值得的。根据后文他经常没有票往返可知逃票很容易，故选A。

（4）句意：因此，他不买票往返来省钱。or表示或者；so表示因此；and表示和；but表示但是。前面说他发现逃票很容易，后面说他经常往返不买票，前后应该是因果关系，故选B。

（5）句意：因此，他不买票往返来省钱。waste意为浪费；spend意为花费，度过；save 意为省，挽救；cost意为花费。他不买票是为了省钱，故选C。

（6）句意：结果，他四次因为没有票在地铁上被抓住。ticket意为车票；money意为钱；cost意为花费；pay意为工资。根据上文可知David经常逃票，所以他应该是没有票被抓。（7）句意：但是他从没有把这件事放在心上。never意为从来，绝不；often意为经常；sometimes意为有时；always意为经常。根据前文他四次逃票被抓和后文的but可知此处表示转折但是他不放在心上，故选A。

（8）句意：他认为更多应该关注他的学习。pay attention to是固定短语，意为关注，注

意，故选D。

（9）句意：他的确很努力学习，一年前以令人吃惊的成绩毕业。interesting意为有趣的；disappointing意为令人失望的；poor意为贫穷的；amazing意为令人吃惊的。他努力学习成绩应该是很好，故选D。

（10）句意：每个人，包括David自己都认为他会很容易的得到一个好工作。him是宾格他；himself是他自己；his是他的；he是主格他。此处强调David自己，故选B。

（11）句意：每个人，包括David自己都认为他能很容易找到一个好的工作，有一个光明的未来。result意为结果；view意为风景，见解；future意为未来；life意为生活，生命。bright表示明亮的可用来修饰未来，而且好工作与好未来有关，故选C。

（14）句意：然后他去了另一个著名的公司。other意为其他的；one意为一个；another 意为另一个；either意为两者中的任何一个。根据前文一个公司没有面试他，他应该去另一个公司，故选C。

（17）句意：当他被拒绝第三次的时候，他忍不住给公司打电话问他们为什么不想要他。command意为命令；want意为想要；recognize意为辨别出；vote意为投票。他被公司拒绝，应该是公司不想要他，故选B。
