【辨析】
accept与receive的区别
(1) receive通常指被动地“收到”或“接到”,而accept则指主动地“接受”。
如:She_______________his present, but she didn't accept it.她收到了他的礼物,但是没有接受。
(2) 【搭配】“接受礼物”说成英语是accept a gift,“接受教育”却是receive an education。
(2)表示“接见”“接待”时,要用receive而不用accept。
如:She was warmly_____________________.她受到热情接待。
2.adjust v.调整;调节;适应;习惯;整理
He smoothed his hair and_____________________his tie.他捋平头发,整了整领带。
【辨析】 adapt与adjust的区别
两者均有“使适合,适应”之意。adapt指“修改或改变以适应新条件”,强调改变的目的和重要性。adjust与adapt含义很接近,但adjust指“调整”“调节”使之适应,所改变的幅度要小一些,侧重过程,主要用于调整角度、高度、光点等。
You should_____________________yourself to the new environment.你应该适应新环境。
You can't see through the telescope until it is _____________________to your eyes.
你把望远镜调节到适合你的目光之后,你才看得见。

3.空处是段落主题句,下文“When someone expresses an opinion, don't interrupt them before they can finish speaking. Maintaining respectful communication channels will strengthen your bond.(当有人表达意见时,不要在他们说完之前打断他们。保持相互尊重的沟通渠道会加强你们之间的联系。)”说的是不要打断家庭成员说的话,要尊重。E项“尊重家庭成员说的话”符合语境。故选E项。
