【B卷·培优卷】
一、阅读理解
Once there were four children: Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy. They were sent away from London during the war (战争) to live with an old professor. The old professor lived in a very large house in the heart of the country.
It began to rain the next morning after they arrived. The children decided to explore (探索) in the house. Soon, they found a special room. There was nothing but one big wardrobe (衣柜). “Nothing there!” said Peter, and they all moved out all but Lucy. She stayed behind because she would like to try the door of the wardrobe, and to her surprise, it opened quite easily.
Looking inside, she saw several coats hanging up. The wardrobe was so big. Lucy stepped into it and started playing among the coats. She found there was a second row of coats hanging up behind the first one. It became quite dark. Lucy couldn’t see anything. She went further in.
Suddenly, she felt something cold under her feet, and her hand touched something hard. “It is just like branches of trees!” Lucy couldn’t believe it. And then she saw that there was a light ahead of her. Something cold and soft was falling on her. Seconds later, she found that she was standing in the middle of a forest with snow under her feet and snowflakes falling through the air.

He soon discovered that the floor of the world was not flat like the floor of the cave. And he fell screaming in fear.
But he soon sat up, and started walking and looking around him. He met a squirrel, and a woodpecker, both of which moved away from him. So he learned that the world had things that stayed in one place, and other things that moved.
He had beginner’s luck when he fell into a ptarmigan’s (雷鸟的) nest. In the nest were seven chicks. He realized this was meat, like his mother gave him. So he ate them all. As he walked away from the nest, the mother ptarmigan attacked him. He fought back, biting her wing with his small teeth. He was excited and happy. He was fighting for meat, fighting to kill. It was what wolves did. He learnt another important lesson.
Then he left the ptarmigan free and rested. As he watched her, something rushed down from above him, picked up the ptarmigan and flew back up into the sky. It was an eagle.
He was learning. Live things were meat, but if they were big enough, live things could also hurt. It was better to eat small live things.
Later something small jumped in front of him, so he put his paw on it. It was a young weasel (鼬鼠). It made strange noises, and soon the mother weasel appeared. She jumped at his neck and bit him with sharp teeth. She wasn’t big, but he didn’t know how dangerous weasels were.

【答案】
51.was walking 52.hungry 53.from 54.farther 55.a 56.to pull 57.as 58.angrily 59.left 60.because
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要向我们讲述了狐狸吃不到葡萄说葡萄酸的故事。故事告诉我们要直面困难,说实话的道理。
51.句意:一天,一只狐狸正在穿过树林,他看到一些美味的葡萄挂在他头顶的树枝上。根据“when he saw some tasty grapes hanging from a branch high above him”可知,主句强调动作正在发生,句子时态是过去进行时,主语是单数,be动词用was,故填was walking。
52.句意:他很饿。空处的词在“was quite”之后,应是形容词;hanger,饥饿,名词,对应的形容词是hungry,饥饿的。故填hungry。
53.句意:但每一跳,他都离葡萄只差几英尺。远离:be away from,远离,固定搭配。故填from。
54.句意:当他再次跳起来,他变得更加远了。空前是动词getting“变得”,是系动词,后接形容词,且空前有程度副词much“……得多”,后接形容词比较级形式,空处应用far“远的”的比较级形式farther“更远的”。故填farther。
55.句意:在短暂的休息后,它试着后退几步,向葡萄做一个奔跑跳跃。短暂的休息:a short rest,固定短语。故填a。
56.句意:他甚至试图爬上树去够葡萄,但是他的爪子不够强壮,他无法把自己拉上树。be adj. enough to do sth“足够……做某事”,故填to pull。
57.句意:他多么希望自己有猴子一样的爪子啊!the same as“像……一样”,故填as。
58.句意:他坐下来,愤怒地盯着葡萄看。根据句意,空处的词是修饰的词,应用副词;angry对应的副词是angrily,故填angrily。
59.句意:说完,他又试了一次,然后离开了。空处的词是和动词tried并列的词,故也应用过去式;leave“离开”,其过去式是left。故填left。
60.句意:似乎狐狸认为葡萄一定是坏的,只是因为他得不到它们。分析空前后句意可知,空处的词是引导原因状语从句,应用because。故填because。

One day, while his mother was out hunting, the gray cub (幼兽) found the way out of the cave. At first, he was afraid. But the need to know and understand was greater than his fear, so he went out. He soon discovered that the floor of the world was not flat like the floor of the cave. And he fell screaming in fear.
