第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
(2019·江西百所名校联考)We all know what it means when a nice envelope lands in your mailbox: Someone's getting married, and they' re hoping that you can be there for the big day. While saying yes to the invitation is a relatively straightforward process, things can get a bit awkward if you're not so sure about attending. 16 ．To help you get out of these formal engagements without feeling awkward，we've consulted Katie Balmer，a leading wedding expert in Scotland.
Follow the format.
The level of formality should be informed by the way that the invitation was sent. 17 ，you should decline via post. If the message came in an email, a simple email expressing your regrets will do.
Don't put off your response.
If you already know that you can't make it for whatever reason，don't hesitate to let
the happy couple know why. “It is very important to respond in good time. 18 ，” says Balmer.
19 ．
While it's a nice gesture to offer a reason for your refusal，there's no need to be extreme.A simple response will do，and it's an especially bad idea to emphasize your reason if it's cost-related.It will establish nothing beyond making the couple feel bad.
Don't change your decision.
20 ，it is important to stick to that decision.“Going back and forth only adds to the inconvenience for the soon-to-be newlyweds，” says Balmer. “As long as you are honest and timely, the bride and groom would understand.”
A．Make it up to the couple B．Be brief in your explanation C．If the offer was sent to you by mail
D．Do not leave it until the last possible moment
E．Once the decision not to attend the wedding has been decided F．Otherwise，you risk adding to the couple's last-minute wedding stress G．Turning down a wedding is a situation where you can feel very personal 【语篇解读】 本文介绍了拒绝婚礼邀请的几点注意事项。
16．G [根据上一句提到“如果你不确定参加的话，事情会变得有些尴尬”可推知，这里要表达拒绝婚礼邀请会怎么样。G项“拒绝婚礼邀请是一种让你觉得很私人的情况”符合语境。故选G。]
17．C [这一段标题是“遵循同一格式”。设空处后一句是其中一种假设，可推知该处也可能是一种假设。C项意思是：如果邀请是邮寄给你的，你应该通过邮寄来拒绝。放在此处符合语境。故选C。]
18．D [根据本段的标题“不要拖延你的回复”，以及设空处上文“如果确定自己无法参加，不要拖延，尽快地让对方知道”可知D项“不要把它留到最后一个可能的时刻”符合本段语境。故选D。]
19．B [根据本段中的“A simple response will do”可知本段是说“你的解释要简短”。故选B。]
20．E [根据标题“不要改变决定”，以及下文提到“来回反复会给新婚夫妇带来不便”可知此处是说“一旦决定不参加婚礼，重要的是要坚持这个决定”，因此E项符合语境。故选E。]
第二部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分)
