Jack goes with it”，说明兔子让Jack跟随它，Follow“跟随”符合语境。Teach“教”、Stop“停止”、Drive“驾驶”均不符合带领去冒险的情境。 25．句意：当他们到达动物园时，他们看到一头狮子。 后文“doesn’t see the zoo”直接点明地点是zoo“动物园”，符合语境。house“房子”与后文“看到狮子”的情节不匹配、sky“天空”和farm“农场”均没有与狮子、动物园相关。 26．句意：“你不想随着音乐跳舞吗？”兔子问。 后文提到“Jack agrees and starts dancing with the rabbit”，说明兔子邀请他跳舞，dance to the music“随着音乐跳舞”是固定搭配，符合语境。talk about“谈论”、hold on“坚持/等一下”、play with“和……玩”均不能引出后文的跳舞动作。 27．句意：令他惊讶的是，他也看到月亮在天空中跳舞，像钻石一样闪烁。 “twinkling like a diamond”且与sky、night相关，moon“月亮”最能对应“像钻石一样闪烁在夜空中”的意象，符合语境。star“星星”数量众多不像钻石那样单独闪烁、rabbit“兔子”和lion“狮子”不能在天上起舞。 28．句意：Jack想告诉兔子关于月亮跳舞的事，但他找不到词语来形容他的惊讶。 想要描述某种感觉或景象，需要用到words“词语/语言”。bed“床”、pens“钢笔”、clothes“衣服”均与表达描述无关。 29．句意：然而，他看到妈妈站在他旁边！ 前文说他在梦里找兔子、看月亮，后文突然转折回到现实看到妈妈，However“然而”表示转折，符合从梦境到现实的突变语境。So“所以”、Also“也”、Because“因为”均不能体现这种情境的转换。 30．句意：Jack笑了，想告诉妈妈关于这个梦的事，但他知道她可能不会相信他。 整个故事是Jack睡觉后发生的奇幻经历，最后被叫醒，说明这是一个dream“梦”。race“比赛”、film“电影”、place“地方”均不符合故事性质。 31．C 32．B 33．A 34．A 35．C 本文是一篇记叙文。讲述了自私的汤姆在仙女的提醒下学会分享与友善，最终收获快乐与友谊的故事。 31．文章第二句“He was very selfish.”指出，汤姆一开始非常自私。 32．文章第六句“But when he touched the flower, a fairy appeared.”指出，汤姆碰到花时一位仙女出现了。 33．文章第十一句“But as time passed by, he found that he had no friends.”指出，汤姆自私、从不与人分享，导致没有人愿意和他做朋友，可以推断出“disliked”的意思是“不喜欢”。 34．文章倒数第六句和第五句“He started to share his toys with his neighbors’ children. He helped old people carry heavy things.”指出，汤姆开始分享并帮助他人。 35．文章最后一句“He finally knew that sharing and being kind to others could bring him happiness.”指出，汤姆最终明白分享能带来幸福。 36．B 37．A 38．D 39．C 40．C 本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了塞翁失马的故事。 36．根据第二段第二句“He was very sad and went to visit the old man at once.”可知，农夫丢马后立刻去拜访了那位老人。 37．根据第三段第二句“The farmer was excited.”可知，当马回来时，农夫感到兴奋。 38．根据第三段最后一句“Because the farmer's son hurt his leg, he did not need to go.”可知，因为农夫的儿子伤了腿，所以不需要去打仗。 39．通读全文可知，无论农夫遇到好事还是坏事，老人总是说“Maybe it is, maybe not.”，说明他总是给出同样的回答。 40．根据文章最后一段“We should not be too happy or too sad about what happens to us.”可知，故事告诉我们面对生活中的事情不要太高兴或太悲伤。 41．C 42．D 43．A 44．C 45．A 本文讲述了一只迷路被羊养大的小狮子，直到遇见大狮子才认清自己的真实身份，意识到自己其实很强壮，这个故事告诉我们要了解真实的自己，才能发现自身的力量。 41．根据第一段中“his mother is sleeping in the middle of the day and he goes into the forest to play. But after about two hours, he gets lost in the forest.”，可知middle of the day出去玩，两小时后迷路，也就是下午。 42．根据第三段中“But the small lion isn’t afraid. He is happy to meet the big lion and runs to play with him.”，可知小狮子不怕大狮子，开心地跑过去和它玩。 43．根据第四段中“Then he knows what he is really like. And other animals in the forest start to be afraid of him.” 和文章最后一句“if we learn more about ourselves, we will know we are strong!”，可知其他动物开始害怕他，结合主旨句，他意识到自己是强壮的。 44．通读全文，故事主旨就是告诉我们要了解真实的自己。 45．①段是故事背景讲述小狮子迷路，②③④段是故事发展讲述被羊收养、长大、遇到大狮子，⑤段是总结主旨讲述了小狮子了解自己才知道自己很强。所以①是总起，②③④是分述，⑤是总结，对应选项A的结构。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
