30、ister, Auntie June. Oh, and I mustnt forget to 4 Spot, our little dog. I was 5 to go off by myself all day, 6 I promised to be careful and took Spot with me for 7 .

33、nic basket. So I had to let them 18 my sandwiches. Dad and Auntie June both made me 19 not to tell Mum what had happened 20 she would be worried. 1.A.onB.acrossC.inD.by答案:D解析 本题主要考查介词的用法。by表示方位，意思为“在旁边”，cottage是名词，意思为“小屋”，小屋应该是建在河边上的。故选D。2.A.whichB.thatC.whereD.when答案:C解析 本题考查定语从句的引导词。空格后面是一个定语从句，用来

34、修饰country，定语从句中关系代词或关系副词在从句中充当句子成分，而此处的从句中并不缺少主语或宾语，故不能用which和that。country表示地点，故用关系副词where，在从句中充当地点状语。when表示时间与题意不符。故选C。3.A.planB.spendC.consumeD.manage答案:B解析 本题考查动词词义辨析。plan计划，设计；spend指“花费金钱和时间”，一般有“spend .on”或者“spend . in”的搭配；consume消费，消耗；manage管理，控制，处理；这里指的是花费时间，所以用spend。4.A.sendB.bringC.mentionD

35、.lead答案:C解析 本题考查上下文语义的衔接。首先要理解上下文的意思。前面介绍了同行的人，后面讲到的狗也是跟他们一起的，mention的意思是“提及”，所以这里可以推测意思是“我不应该忘记提及斯波特”。5.A.allowedB.encouragedC.forcedD.ordered答案:A解析 本题主要考查考生对文章意思的理解。allow允许，承认；encourage鼓励，怂恿；force强迫，强制；order命令，控制。这里的意思是“得到允许”。故选A。6.A.even ifB.providedC.lestD.as if答案:B解析 本题考查考生对连接词的用法。even if即使，尽管；

36、provided倘若，除非；lest唯恐，以免；as if好像。此处空格前面的句子是以空格后面的句子为条件的。故选B。7.A.protectionB.inspectionC.instructionD.supervision答案:A解析 本题考查考生对语境的把握。protection保护；inspection检查，视察；instruction指导；supervision监督，管理，指导。通过上下文可以知道，本句的意思是“带着狗可以作为保护”。8.A.placeB.spaceC.skyD.distance答案:D解析 本题考查考生对语境的把握。in the distance的意思是“在远方，在远处

37、”。9.A.excitedB.amusedC.scaredD.disturbed答案:C解析 本题考查形容词的用法。excited激动人心的；amused愉快的，开心的；scared惊恐的，恐惧的；disturbed扰乱的。从上下文的意思来看，这里要表达的意思是作者受到了惊吓，才躲到灌木丛中。故答案为C。10.A.behindB.beforeC.besideD.beneath答案:A解析 本题考查介词的用法。这里的意思是“躲在灌木丛后面”。故选A。11.A.watchedB.viewedC.seenD.observed答案:C解析 本题考查考生对语境的把握。作者让自己藏起来的目的当然是让“外面

38、看不见我们”，故用see，这里的“看不见”和“我们”之间是动宾关系，所以用被动语态seen。12.A.anotherB.each otherC.the otherD.one another答案:A解析 本题考查上下文语义的衔接。前面已经提到一支桨，而且此处没有范围的限制，故这里应用“另外一支桨”。13.A.rollingB.sinkingC.circlingD.floating答案:D解析 本题考查动词的词义辨析。roll滚动，滚转；sink沉没，沉下；circle围绕，盘旋，环形；float漂，浮。船和木头等在水上的漂流用float。14.A.toB.besideC.downD.on答案:C

39、解析 本题主要考查介词的用法。to向，往，给，于，直到；beside在旁边，和比较；down跌下，爬下，下来；on在之上，依附于，关于，涉及。这里的意思是“从上游河岸跑下来”，down the river bank符合文义。15.A.withinB.throughC.underD.over答案:B解析 本题同样是考查介词的用法。through有“彻底，完全”的意思。within在之内under在之下；over在之上，越过。这里说的是他们两个人全身都湿透了，故选B。16.A.atB.againstC.withD.to答案:C解析 本题考查词语的固定搭配。be angry with sb.对某人感

40、到生气，为固定搭配。故选C。17.A.moreoverB.howeverC.thereforeD.then答案:B解析 本题考查连接词的用法。moreover而且，表递进；however然而，但是，表转折；therefore因此，所以，表因果；then然后，表顺承。从文中的“luckily”可以知道这里情况出现了转机，语义发生了转折，所以此空应该选一个表示转折的词。故选B。18.A.spareB.shareC.borrowD.divide答案:B解析 本题考查上下文语义的衔接和考生对文章意思的推理能力。前文说到野餐篮漂走了，由此我们可推测出他们准备的食物都没有了，所以这里的意思是作者得把自己的

41、_一明治分给他们吃。19.A.agreeB.decideC.guaranteeD.promise答案:D解析 本题考查上下文语义的衔接及动词的用法。可以推测出此处的意思是“爸爸和姨妈要作者允诺不把事情告诉妈妈”。agree同意，赞成，用在此处语气不够强；decide决定；guarantee保证，担保；promise许诺，承诺。从下文所提到的“怕妈妈担心”，guarantee和promise语义上符合，但guarantee后面不能跟动词不定式，所以答案只能选D。20.A.except thatB.on condition thatC.in order thatD.in case答案:D解析 本题

42、考查固定短语的用法。except that除了；on condition that以为条件，倘若；in order that目的在于，以便，为了；in ease万一，以防万一。从文章意思来看，爸爸和姨妈不让“我”告诉妈妈的原因是以防她会担心，所以选in case符合文义。Section Reading ComprehensionPart A Directions: Read the following three texts.
