Q: 下班时间,地铁车____里挤满了乘客。

(2)厢. The word '厢' (xiāng) refers to a carriage or compartment, specifically in the context of a '地铁车厢' (subway carriage). Options '相' (xiāng - mutual), '香' (xiāng - fragrant), and '箱' (xiāng - box) do not fit the context.

Q: 姐姐见我冷得直发抖,便把外套____给了我。

(4)递. The word '递' (dì) means to pass or hand over. In this context, the sister handed over her jacket. Options '弟' (dì - younger brother), '第' (dì - ordinal prefix), and '梯' (tī - ladder) are incorrect.

Q: 妹妹知道错了,她____以后不再这样做了。

(1)保证. The word '保证' (bǎozhèng) means to guarantee or promise. After realizing her mistake, the younger sister would 'promise' not to repeat it. '提醒' (tíxǐng - remind), '负责' (fùzé - be responsible for), and '遵守' (zūnshǒu - abide by) do not fit the context of making a commitment not to repeat an action.

Q: 丽华说话没礼貌,清洁工人故意不要____她。

(2)理睬. The word '理睬' (lǐcǎi) means to pay attention to or acknowledge. If someone is rude, others might intentionally 'ignore' or not acknowledge them. '理解' (lǐjiě - understand), '清理' (qīnglǐ - clean up), and '整理' (zhěnglǐ - tidy up) are not appropriate in this context.

Q: 这道数学题很难;老师要同学们一起____。

(1)讨论. When a math problem is difficult, teachers typically ask students to '讨论' (tǎolùn) or discuss it together to find a solution. '批评' (pīpíng - criticize), '建议' (jiànyì - suggest), and '采访' (cǎifǎng - interview) are irrelevant actions.

Q: 父母劝过哥哥很多次,他____改不了坏习惯。

(2)突然. The word '依然' (yīrán) means still, as before, or nevertheless. It indicates that despite many attempts to persuade him, the brother 'still' could not change his bad habit. '既然' (jìrán - since/now that), '突然' (tūrán - suddenly), and '果然' (guǒrán - as expected) do not fit the meaning of persistent behavior despite intervention.

Q: 想知道更多跟活动有关的问题,你可以。

(3)写封电邮给陈乐天女士. The notice explicitly states: '想知道有关以上活动的更多信息,请找陈乐天女士。她的电邮是chenletian@botanic.email.com。' (To know more about the above activities, please contact Ms. Chen Letian. Her email is chenletian@botanic.email.com.) Thus, writing an email to Ms. Chen Letian is the correct way to obtain more information.

Q: 以下哪一个句子是对的?

(4)首十位报名的学生能得到一张明信片。. Option (1) is incorrect as activities are for specific primary levels. Option (2) is incorrect as learning to grow orchids is at the Orchid Garden, not the Seed Exhibition Hall (which teaches hydroponic vegetables). Option (3) is incorrect as registration is from October 1st to November 5th. Option (4) is correct, as stated in the notice: '前十位报名的学生,可以获得一张胡姬花明信片。' (The first ten registered students can receive an orchid postcard.)
