24. 错选C
    A强调句who/that均可，D是对的，we painted the kitchen white.

25. 错选了A
    首先，assemble主动即可：to come together; gather; meet: e.g. We assembled in the auditorium.
    staff动词用复数或a member of staff，e.g. Although the blood-spattered offices will be off-limits, staff have vowed to continue producing the magazine.

26. 错选了A
    alleviate: to make easier to endure; lessen; mitigate: e.g. to alleviate pain.
    diminish有及物动词的用法to make or cause to seem smaller,less important; reduce. e.g. They say the trial pause shouldn’t diminish hope in AstraZeneca’s vaccine. diminished responsibility是一个法律术语。
    devalue: to deprive of value e.g. Rosen undoubtedly did not intend to devalue women with her comments.

27. 错选了B
    patch就是打补丁的意思: to mend, cover, or fill up a hole or weak spot in, e.g. The fence needs to be patched.
    还有一个很重要的意思to connect to a communication system，e.g. they patched him into the conference call

28. C和D显然是错的，A也是对的，但B也不能说错
    stack exchange上有一个问题：‘I would say that anybody using it today is being deliberately archaic’

    C’est une rencontre pas ordinaire.
    Entre amour et tendresse,
    elle n’avait pas d’autre adresse.
    Elle avait un nom de fleur, elle vivait au milieu des mots
    Des adjectifs tirés par les tifs.
    Des verbes qui poussent comme des herbes.
    Y en a qui passent en force.
    Elle est passée en douceur de mon écorce
    à mon cœur.
    Dans les histoires d’amour, y a pas toujours que d’ l’amour.
    Parfois, y a même pas de je t’aime.
    Pourtant, on s’aime.
    C’est une rencontre pas ordinaire.
    Je l’ai trouvé par hasard sur un banc de mon square.
    Elle faisait pas trop d’écume, pas plus grosse qu’une colombe,
    avec ses petites plumes.
    Elle était au milieu des mots,
    des noms communs comme moi.
    Elle m’a donné un livre, puis deux,
    des pages qui m’ont éclaté dans les yeux.
    Meurs pas maintenant, t’as le temps, attends.
    C’est pas l’heure, ma petite fleur.
    Donne moi encore un peu de toi.
    Donne moi encore un peu de ta vie.
    Attends.
    Dans les histoires d’amour, y a pas toujours que d’ l’amour.
    Parfois, y a même pas de j’ t’aime.
    Pourtant on s’aime!
