（13）动词辨析。A.派遣；B.被派遣，单数形式；C.被派遣，复数形式；D.派遣，现在完成时。根据Then，troops（13）to Zhao.（然后，军队派给了赵国。）可知，主语troops与动词sent是动宾关系，故事发生在过去，使用一般过去时被动语态。主语是troops，所以用were sent。故选C。

"Glass is also an insulator.It keeps heat from moving，" Lucy said.Then she noticed a large metal tray（金属托盘）across the room. "This might work!"
Lucy put the block of ice onto the tray.Everybody's eyes moved between the clock and the ice.Would they be able to free the key in time？
At last，the key lay in the water on the tray.The three friends rushed out of the room in the last minute.

【分析】文章主要讲述了毛遂自荐的故事。
【解答】（1）疑问词辨析。A.谁；B.何时；C.哪个；D.哪里。根据However，among his followers，he could only find 19（1）were good enough.（然而，他只能找到19个足够好的随从。）分析句子可知，该句是定语从句，先行词是followers，指人，关系代词在从句中做主语，所以用who。故选A。
（2）短语辨析。A.错误；B.错误；C.错误；D.28岁。根据a（2）man named Mao Sui recommended himself.（一个叫毛遂的28岁的人举荐他自己。）可知，数词﹣year﹣old"...岁的"，此处使用复合形容词结构作定语，修饰man。故选D。
（3）介词辨析。A.在...上面；B.带有；C.在；D....的。根据Prince Pingyuan looked at him（3）doubt，（平原君怀疑地看着他。）可知，此处用with表示一种伴随状态。故选B。
（4）冠词辨析。A.不定冠词，用于以辅音音素开头的单词前；B.不定冠词，用于以元音音素开头的单词前；C.特指；D.不填。根据I hear that（4）person with talent is like an awl（ 锥 子 ） in a cloth bag.（我听说有才能的人像布袋里的锥子。）可知，此处表示泛指，且person是以辅音音素开头的单词，所以用不定冠词a。故选A。
（5）代词辨析。A.它；B.它的；C.它是；D.它自己。根据（5）sharp point will soon pierce through the bag.（它的尖头将会快刺破袋子。）结合空后的sharp可知，此处用形容词性物主代词Its。故选B。
（6）形容词辨析。A.有才智的；B.最有才智的；C.更有才智的；D.更加有才智的。根据Maybe you are not as（6）as others？（可能你没有其他人那样有才智？）可知，as...as...（像...一样），中间用形容词原级。故选A。
（7）连词辨析。A.因此；B.或者；C.和；D.但是。根据Mao Sui answered slowly（7）confidently，（毛遂缓慢而自信地回答道，）结合slowly和confidently可知，前后是转折关系。故选D。
（8）动词辨析。A.听到，原形；B.听到，第三人称单数形式；C.听到，现在分词形式；D.听到，过去式形式。根据After（8）Mao Sui's words，（在听到毛遂的话之后，）结合After可知，介词后面用动名词形式。故选C。
（9）动词辨析。A.加入，现在分词形式；B.加入，过去式形式；C.加入，不定式形式；D.加入，原形。根据He allowed Mao Sui（9）his team.（他允许毛遂加入他的队伍。）可知，allow sb.to do sth.（允许某人做某事）固定用法。故选C。
（10）代词辨析。A.所有的；B.一些；C.许多；D.没有人。根据（10）of the 19 men could find a way to solve the problem.（19个人中没有一个人能找到解决问题的方法。）可知，此处是指没人能找到解决问题的方法。故选D。
（11）形容词辨析。A.令人震惊的，修饰物；B.震惊的，修饰人；C.震惊，第三人称单数形式；D.震惊，原形。根据The king was （11）.（国王震惊了。）可知，此处用形容词作表语，结合The king可知，此处是指震惊的。故选B。
（12）形容词辨析。A.镇静的，形容词；B.镇静地，副词；C.冷静，名词；D.使平静，动词。根据Very（12），Mao Sui explained the importance of the alliance （联盟） between Chu and Zhao.（很镇静地，毛遂解释着楚赵联盟的重要性。）可知，副词修饰句子。故选B。
（13）动词辨析。A.派遣；B.被派遣，单数形式；C.被派遣，复数形式；D.派遣，现在完成时。根据Then，troops（13）to Zhao.（然后，军队派给了赵国。）可知，主语troops与动词sent是动宾关系，故事发生在过去，使用一般过去时被动语态。主语是troops，所以用were sent。故选C。

Lucy put the block of ice onto the tray.Everybody's eyes moved between the clock and the ice.Would they be able to free the key in time？
