答案解析：
21. 第一个空表示“一个关于友谊的故事”，“story”是以辅音音素开头的单词，用不定冠词“a”;第二个空是特指前面提到的这个故事，用定冠词“the”。所以选D。
22. 第一个空修饰名词“English teacher”，要用形容词性物主代词，“our”意为“我们的”，符合语境;“we”是主格，不能修饰名词，排除C、D。第二个空在动词“like”后作宾语，要用宾格形式，“her”是“she”的宾格，意为“她”，符合要求;“she”是主格，不能作宾语，排除A。所以选B。
23. “polite”意为“有礼貌的”;“rude”意为“粗鲁的”;“dangerous”意为“危险的”;“humorous”意为“幽默的”。根据常识，经常说“谢谢”是有礼貌的行为，所以选A。
24. “between”表示“在两者之间”;“from”表示“从……”;“behind”表示“在……后面”;“among”表示“在三者或三者以上之间”。根据“Anna is taller than me”可知安娜比我高，所以她应该坐在我后面，选C。
25. “difficulty”意为“困难”;“pleasure”意为“快乐，愉悦”;“weather”意为“天气”;“danger”意为“危险”。音乐通常会给人带来快乐，所以选B。
26. “shouldn't”表示“不应该”;“needn't”表示“不必”;“must”表示“必须”;“can”表示“能够，可以”。根据常识，开车时不应该打电话，这是危险的行为，所以选A。
27. 由“than”可知这里要用比较级，“close”的比较级是“closer”，表示“更近”，所以选C。
28. “keeping clear of”意为“避开，不接触”;“making a list of”意为“列一个……的清单”;“getting on well with”意为“与……相处融洽”;“winning the heart of”意为“赢得……的心”。根据“because I like to get things ready earlier”可知我喜欢提前把事情准备好，所以应该是为旅行列一个物品清单，选B。
29. “create”意为“创造”;“avoid”意为“避免”;“borrow”意为“借”;“guess”意为“猜测”。政府计划为西部地区的年轻人创造更多工作机会，符合语境，所以选A。
30. “teach sb. to do sth.”是固定搭配，意为“教某人做某事”，所以这里要用动词不定式“to treat”，选B。
31. 根据“at the moment”可知句子时态是现在进行时，其结构是“be + 动词的现在分词”，主语“She”是第三人称单数，be动词用“is”，“read”的现在分词是“reading”，所以选C。
32. 根据“Today”可知句子时态是一般现在时，“he”和“love”之间是被动关系，即“他被人们喜爱”，要用一般现在时的被动语态，其结构是“am/is/are + 动词的过去分词”，主语“he”是第三人称单数，be动词用“is”，“love”的过去分词是“loved”，所以选C。
33. “after”意为“在……之后”;“so that”意为“以便，为了”;“but”意为“但是”;“so”意为“所以”。根据语境，我的表弟在完成医学院学业后成为了一名乡村医生，所以选A。
34. 根据答语“Because he helped many countries grow more rice.”可知问句是询问原因，要用“why”引导宾语从句，且宾语从句要用陈述语序，所以选D。
35. “Nice idea”意为“好主意”;“That's true”意为“那是真的”;“Don't be silly”意为“别傻了”;“I agree with you”意为“我同意你的观点”。根据“It's too dark. We'd better stay at home.”可知说话者不同意去散步，认为太黑了最好待在家里，“Don't be silly”符合语境，所以选C。
