（1）考查动词。句意：在我的申请信中，我小心的表达了我非常想去法国的愿望。A. discuss“讨论”；B. express“表达”；C. announce“宣布”；D. argue“争论”。从后面宾语内容可判断是作者想要\"传达对于法国有多么的向往\"，是一种情感，故选B。

（11）考查动词。A. combined“结合”；B. fitted“适应，合适”；C. involved“涉及”；D. adapted“使适应”。根据语境可知，为了避免说本族语（此处是英语）的诱惑，我要求不要和一个说英语的室友安置在一起。be adapted with sb.固定短语，\"和某人安置在一起\"，故选D。
（12）考查动词。A. added“添加”；B. introduced“介绍”；C. devoted“献身于”；D. adapted“使适应”。因为是\"new roommate\"，自然需要互相介绍，\"introduce\"\"，故选B。 （13）考查名词。A. Japanese“日本人”；B. Brazilian“巴西人”；C. Frenchman“法国人”；D.

（16）考查形容词。A. surprised“惊讶的”；B. disturbed“扰乱的”；C. embarrassed“尴尬的”；D. concerned“关心的”。根据上文人们问作者这次旅行中最喜欢的部分，作者却说的是他的室友，并不是首段中作者的设想，此结果不仅让他人\"surprised\"，就连作者本人都没有想到。故选A。
（17）考查动词。A. analyzing“分析”；B. exploring“探索”；C. describing“描述”；D. investigating“调查”。根据后接宾语France可知是一地方，只能选择explore\"探索\"，享受着我们一起探索法国的周末。故选B。
