答案及解析
本文讲述了作者在德国学习德语的经历。
31. C【解析】句意：语法让我很苦恼，甚至快把我逼疯了。gave 给； helped 帮助； troubled 折磨。根据 even drove me crazy，可知，语法让作者很苦恼，都快把他逼疯了，表述过去发生的事情，句子用一般过去时，所以空格处填 troubled。
32. B【解析】句意：我唯一的优势是拼写——我在每次单词测试中都得了 A。listening 听力； spelling 拼写； speaking 说。根据 I got an A on every word
test I took 可知，作者在每次单词测试中都能得到 A，可见单词拼写是他的优势，所以空格处填 spelling。
33. B【解析】句意：经过两年的学习，我努力用蹩脚的德语交流，并报名去德国完成我的学位。perfect完美的； broken 残缺的； beautiful 漂亮的。根据 struggle to communicate“挣扎着去沟通” ，可见作者的德语并不流利，所以空格处填 broken。
34.
A【解析】句意：这是我经历过的最艰难的一个学期。hardest最艰难的； easiest最简单的； happiest 最高兴的。根据 I was often nervous at school, worried about whether the
teachers would call on me in class and whether I’d understand their questions，可知，作者在学校经常紧张，担心老师是否在课堂上提问他，他是否明白他们的问题，由此可见，作者在德国学习的那段时期过的很艰难，所以空格处填 hardest。
35. C【解析】句意：我在大学学的德语在日常会话中并不实用。useless 无用的； meaningless 无意义的； practical 实用性的。根据 My book knowledge fell by the wayside，可知，书本上的知识半途而废了，之前所学的德语并不实用，所以空格处填 practical。
36.
A【解析】句意：我只有在八个室友面前会放松一点，他们愿意和我慢慢说德语，似乎不介意我的错误。relaxed 放松； feared 害怕； wondered 想知道。根据 who were willing to speak German slowly to me，可知，室友愿意慢慢地跟作者说德语，这让作者感到放松一些，没有在课堂上那么紧张，所以空格处填 relaxed。
37. C【解析】句意：我只有在八个室友面前会放松一点，他们愿意和我慢慢说德语，似乎不介意我的错误。purposes 目的； progress 过程； mistakes 错误。根据 I only relaxed a little around my eight roommates, who were
willing to speak German slowly to me，可知，作者在室友面前感到轻松，是因为他们愿意慢慢地跟作者说德语，并且不介意作者的错误，所以空格处填 mistakes。
38. B【解析】句意：老师讲得那么快，几乎他说的每一句话我都听不懂。slowly 缓慢地； quickly 快速地； clearly 清楚地。 so…that 引导结果状语从句，根据
almost everything he said flew right over my head，可知，老师上课说得太快了，以至于作者一句也听不懂，所以空格处填 quickly。
39. A【解析】句意：我坐在前面记笔记，甚至记录他在课堂上说的每个字，但是没有任何帮助。nothing 没什么事； anything 任何事； everything 每件事。根据 I had no idea what the class was really about，可知，尽管作者在课堂上努力地记下老师说的每个字，但这对他来说没有任何帮助，他还是听不懂课堂是讲什么内容，所以空格处填 nothing。
40. C【解析】句意：许多年过去了，但我仍然记得努力学习另一种语言的感觉。creating 创作； teaching 教； learning 学习。根据第一段 As a university student,
I decided to learn German，可知，整篇文章都讲的是作者学习语言的经历，所以空格处填 learn。
