[范文]
As is known to us all, there will be a group dancing competition in our school next month. Of course, our class will not miss it. Our monitor called on all of us to take an active part in it.
Personally thinking, a group dance is quite a good form of entertainment as well as exercise, which brings us not only mental benefits but
physical ones. Besides, dancing a group dance calls for teamwork, one of the qualities we will need for our future careers. Thirdly, by practising it, our classmates can develop a better relationship between each other, helping each other and encouraging each other. Last but not the least, this is a good chance for us to win honor for our class.
For all the reasons above, I have decided to join in it. I want to prove to be an honor to the class.

12.I am ______ that he has not answered my letter.
A.bothered B.interrupted
C.interfered D.annoyed
答案:D
解析:句意:他没有给我回信,使我很生气。annoy “使恼怒,使生气”;bother “不停打扰使人不安宁”,着重于动作;interrupt 指“打断某事或某人”,通常指以说话的方式来打扰别人;interfere “干涉,妨碍(某人或某事)”。

A.conducted B.having been conducted
