It’s cool to sit in it on such a hot day.”可知，此处应指天气很“热”，旅行者在树下乘凉。故选A。 6. 句意：“刚才谁说话了？”男人惊讶地问。 in silence安静地；in peace和平地；in danger在危险中；in surprised吃惊地。根据种子的问话“What are you talking about?”及旅行者的提问“‘A seed?’ The man looked at the big tree. ‘Are you joking?’可知，旅行者认为对方在开玩笑，此处应指旅行者“很惊奇”。故选D。 7. 句意：是我。一颗种子。 him他；me我；her她；them他们。根据“It is…A seed.”可知，种子回复对方是它(自己)在说话，且该句是以种子为第一人称角度在叙述，应用代词“me”表示“我”，在句中作表语，强调说话者本人。故选B。 8. 句意：你认为人们为什么来这里？ How如何；When何时；Where哪里；Why为什么。后句“That is because people often sit here to enjoy your shade”在解释其来这里的原因，应用why对其原因提问。故选D。 9. 句意：种子想了想，平生第一次笑了。 first第一；second第二；third第三；last最后。根据“The traveler’s words made him so happy. The seed smiled for the…time”及第一段描述“The seed was not confident and thought he was not important in the world.”可知，种子一直觉得自己不重要，这次旅行者的话使它感到很开心，可推测这应是种子“第一次”感到开心。故选A。 10. 句意：在阳光和雨水的帮助下，他终于长大了。 At在；In在……中；For为了；With和……一起，具有，用。根据“…the help of the sun and the rain, finally he grew up.”及语境可知，此处指在阳光和雨水的帮助下，应用介词with与之构成介词短语，“with the help of…”表示“在……帮助下”。故选D。 七年级下册 单元话题 梯度训练 27 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
