(答案→)C 解析：【小题1】本题考查副词。far into．．．表示“深入……”，而A、B、D项的意思是一样的，表示”很多的”的意思。【小题2】本题考查形容词。B根据下文的句子where gravel(砾石) and broken stones pricked(使刺痛)可知答案。【小题3】本题考查名词。根据上下文和常识得知，走很远的路使得他的脚又痛又麻。【小题4】本题考查动词。本句的意思是”使路面覆盖上一层牛皮”【小题5】本题考查代词。根据上下文可知本句是指”此举不仅对他本人有利而且对所有的人都有好处”。【小题6】本题考查动词。根据上文得知，国王希望在牛皮覆盖的路上“行走”不在是件痛苦的事。【小题7】本题考查连词。even if引导让步状语从句，根据上下文语境逻辑可知应选B项。【小题8】本题考查助动词。本句there would not be…表示过去的必然的将来。【小题9】本题考查名词。本句的意思是“很显然，这是一个愚蠢的尝试”，其他选项与句意不符。【小题10】本题考查名词。结合上文人们知道“这是一个愚蠢的尝试”，可这是过往的命令，人们除了要投和“叹息”外，没有其他办法。【小题11】本题考查动词。本句指一位仆人冒险去向国王提建议，即venture to do sth。　【小题12】本题考查动词。本句考查”have sth done”的用法。　【小题13】本题考查动词。surprised and pleased是平行结构作状语。【小题14】本题考查名词。由上文．．．to make a suggestion可知此处应选C项。　【小题15】本题考查名词。这篇文章讲述了牛皮鞋的由来，所以用leather。　【小题16】本题考查形容词。odd and strange是平行结构。【小题17】本题考查连词。该空前后是因果关系。【小题18】本题考查动词。make an attempt是习惯搭配。【小题19】本题考查名词。put yourself on the position of the person you deal with是指将自己置于别人的位置上。即将心比心，换个角度思考问题。【小题20】本题考查连词。you change your way of thinking一句中不能用while，因为change是短暂性动词。而其他选项与逻辑不符
