6.句意:而且他也不想失去他的玩具猴子。根据“And he did not want to lose his toy monkey...”及结合前文可知,前文提到他不想卖火车玩具,此处为否定句中的“也”。故填either。
7.句意:当他还是个小孩子的时候,他每晚都睡在这只猴子旁边。根据“when he was a little child”可知,此处为一般过去时,谓语动词用过去式,sleep的过去式是slept。故填slept。

Unfortunately, their father agreed because he thought they were too poor to raise two children. Hansel knew that unless he thought of a way to save his sister and himself, they would die in the forest. So he sneaked out of the house 3 (careful) not to make any sound. Outside the house, he collected shining white stones.
The next morning, the two children were given some 4 (bread) then taken deep in the forest and finally left there by their cold-blooded parents. 5 Hansel wasn’t afraid. Guided by the stones he dropped along the path into the forest, they finally arrived home. But when their stepmother saw them home, she cried out 6 a high voice to order them to cut wood in the forest again. And that time, they weren’t lucky enough to get out of danger. They lost 7 (they) way in the forest and then got caught by a bad witch (女巫). When the witch 8 (try) to cook them in the oven, they pushed her into it, instead.
At the end of the story, the brother and sister got back home with the witch’s treasure. Their father told them that he regretted leaving them behind and that he shouldn’t marry such 9 evil woman.

( 24-25·八下·湖南省常德市安乡县·期末)
阅读下面的材料,在空白处填入适当内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式(1个或几个单词),使句子通顺正确。
My friend Jack told me about a special test he had experienced in the first year of high school:
“It was a few minutes before the final history exam. Some of the students seemed a little nervous, though in fact everyone worked 1 (real) hard at history as Mr. White was a strict teacher. When the bell 2 (ring), Mr White came with the exam papers in his hand. To our surprise, he didn’t hand out the papers at once. 3 , he said, ‘I know how hard you 4 (work) for this test recently and you all can do it well, so I’m willing to offer a B to anyone who would prefer (更喜欢) not to take the test.’”
Many students jumped up to thank Mr. White and left the classroom. Mr. White looked at the rest of the 5 (student) and said, “Does anyone else want to get a B? This is your last chance.” Two more decided 6 (go).
Seven students including Jack remained. Mr. White then handed out the papers. The students felt so 7 (surprise) because there were only three sentences typed on the paper: Congratulations! You have just got 8 A in this test. Keep believing in yourself.
I admired (羡慕) Jack for he had such a test and a good teacher. I have never had a test like that although I think it is a test any teacher could and should give their students. It is true that the students who are not confident in themselves are usually B students or maybe even 9 (bad). The A students are those who believe in themselves.
We should never give 10 unless we win the final success. Sir Edmund Hillary, the first person to reach the top of Qomolangma said, “It’s not the mountain we conquer (征服) but ourselves.”
【答案】
1.really 2.rang 3.Instead 4.have worked 5.students 6.to go 7.surprised 8.an 9.worse 10.up
【导语】本文讲述了作者的朋友杰克在高中经历的一次特殊考试,这次考试让作者意识到自信的重要性。

Seven students including Jack remained. Mr. White then handed out the papers. The students felt so 7 (surprise) because there were only three sentences typed on the paper: Congratulations! You have just got 8 A in this test. Keep believing in yourself.
