解析
Mrs Smith 在一次演讲中，不慎将手表“遗失”，其后校长智查丢失手表。
1. D。因史密斯太太在演讲前，是把表“放”(laid)在桌上。
2. A。从语境看，这里意思是说：我们正要(be about to)…，这时(when)…。请注意其后的 when 一词在这里的含义和作用。
3. B。因为校长是要把孩子们召集起来(call us together)，以便叫他们去“找”丢失的手表。
4. C。校长叫孩子们去做一件事或工作(job)，即“找手表”。
5. A
6. C。校长知道这表是某个孩子偷去了，但又不知道具体是哪一个，所以他假装说这表是史密斯太太不慎丢了，叫孩子们帮她找一找。为了使孩子们更加相信，校长又说：这表只是从史密斯太太手腕中不知不觉地“滑”(slips)下去的，并且说这事“以前”(before)也发生过。
7. B。这里 See =" Let’s" see。
8. C。注意搭配 make sth clear (表明清楚)，原句中 it 的是形式宾语，其真正的宾语是后面的(that) the boy who does so will get a useful reward.
9. D。这里的 do so 是指前面提到的 to find it(the watch)。
10. A。因当时孩子们没搞清校长的实际意思，以为是真的要他们从地上去找表，并认为找到表者真的有奖，所以都开始找表，并希望自己有幸(lucky)找到这块手表。
11. D。这里指 Jim 假装弯腰捡(pick up)东西。请注意这句中的 as if(好像)对整篇短文的影响。既然是弯腰好像(as if)捡东西，那么实际就不是真的捡东西，所以他后来交给老师的手表就不是捡的，而是偷的。
12. B / 13. B。此处的语境是：Jim“捡”起手表，然后(the next moment) 就满面笑容地(all smiles)跑到史密斯太太面前，将表交给(turning in)了她。
14. A /15.C。这里请注意 however(但是), in fact(事实上),angry(生气的)等这些关键性的语境词。按照一般常识，你丢了东西，别人捡到东西交给你，你应该表示感谢和高兴。由于本句用了 however 这个词表示转折，所以这里的 Mrs Smith 并不高兴(not...pleased)，甚至看起来还很生气(angry)。也正因为有了这样的上文，所以才有这样的下文：Mrs Smith把表拿走“甚至”(even)连谢谢都没说一句。至此我们再联系前文：校长和史密斯太太不是不知道这表是被偷去的，他们用了这样一个计谋，现在使吉姆乖乖地把表交出来。这样一来，前后的意思也就顺理成章了。
16. D。注意前文提供的语境：Let’s make it clear the boy who does so will get a useful reward.
17. C。这里选D显然不合语境要求，而 A、B 两个答案与后面的不定式 to write... 不能搭配。
18. B。这里的 on 意为“关于”。
19. A。这里的 poor 意为“可怜”，联系上文，这是显然的最佳答案。
20. D。subject 在这里指 the dangers of smoking 这个“主题”。
