答案：A;C;D;B;C;C;A;D;C;A
解析：

 （1）A

解題點(diǎn)撥：上文提到Marie的媽媽做了一個不尋常的蛋糕，此外應(yīng)選thecake。

（2）C

解題點(diǎn)撥：那四枚小硬幣象征著好運(yùn)，luck是運(yùn)氣之意。這是個習(xí)俗，在餃子或蛋糕中放入一枚硬幣，誰吃到了就表明了誰會在新的一年里交好運(yùn)。

（3）D

解題點(diǎn)撥：Marie只有13歲，不可能有兒女，C項先排除，文中也沒捷到Marie有兄弟，B項也排除，A項不符合情理，故D項正確。

（4）B

解題點(diǎn)撥：根據(jù)上文，本句應(yīng)該是他們吃完了蛋糕，桌子上留下了三枚硬幣。

（5）C

解題點(diǎn)撥：文中的第一段提到媽媽在蛋糕中放了四枚硬幣，而吃完蛋糕后只有三枚，所以有一枚不見了。

（6）C

解題點(diǎn)撥：由上文知Marie病了六個星期，下文中有but表示語氣的轉(zhuǎn)折，說明她病情有所好轉(zhuǎn)。

（7）A

解題點(diǎn)撥：由上一段可知，此句應(yīng)是Marie的媽媽問“為什么Marie還不能講話?”

（8）D

解題點(diǎn)撥：根據(jù)上下文，醫(yī)生應(yīng)該說“很抱歉，我們幫不了她。”

（9）C

解題點(diǎn)撥：本句意為她長大了并且找到了工作，grow up是長大之意。

（10）A

解題點(diǎn)撥：從語法上來分析，該句中的形容詞small和black修飾名詞時，應(yīng)放在所修飾的名詞thing之前，而且加冠詞，B項排除，C、D項語法也不正確，只有以下結(jié)構(gòu)：“不定代詞十形容詞”才是正確的。

　　At 2:00p.m. on Dec. 5, 1945, five planes took off in fine weather from the airport of Florida, on a training task. Two hours later, the leader in the sky radioed that he was “completely lost”. Then there was silence. Another plane was sent to look for them and also disappeared.
　　One of the largest ship that had disappeared in the triangle was an American coal ship, 500meters long. The weather was good, and there were no messages for help before it was “gone”. No broken ships or dead bodies have been found so far.
　　No one is able to tell how all these accidents have happened. A group of Japanese scientists were there to see what it was really like in 1995, but nothing has been heard of them ever since.
