The girl 49 to be afraid and said, “I had to wash clothes at night. This afternoon my father had a baby, I was 50 all day because of that. Then I found there were no clean 51 for the baby, so I had to come and wash them now.”

“Well, if the King himself orders someone to get bull’s milk for him, 53 can’t a man have a baby?”

【解析】
试题分析:本文是记叙文,讲述一位少女如何用聪明才智回答国王的无理要求,最后救出了她的父亲。
1.语意辨析题。“给某人检查身体”常用examine sb. 而check表示“核对是否正确”;test“测试(性能)”;judge“判断”。选D.
2.逻辑判断题。从上文的医生建议国王喝bull’s milk(公牛的奶),可以推知国王对此不可能的事所应该产生的反应是surprised。选B.
3.本题是上题逻辑意义的延续。这个疑问句正是表示国王的惊讶,“这怎么可能呢?” A.
4.本题是逻辑推理题。医生建议国王命令Gulbo去完成一项不可能完成的使命,可见医生与Gulbo是仇家,否则不会如此难为人。选B.
5.本题依然是上题逻辑意义的延续。医生这样做的目的就是要让Gulbo受罪。选A.
6.本题考查语意辨析。单纯从搭配上来看,除了demand以外,另三个选项都是可以的。但意义上却大相径庭。order sb. to do“命令某人做”,begged sb. to do“企求某人做”,decided sb. to do“使某人决定做”。从人物身份来分析,只能是order。选B.
7.本题考查上下文的情景推断。既然是国王生病,当然要求大臣“立刻”去寻除病良药。选C.
8.本题考查语意辨析。Gulbo想法摆脱困境,chance和position干扰性较小,difficulty表示“困境”通常用复数形式,因此只有situation合适。选B.
9.本题考查语言知识的搭配。询问出了什么事、怎么了,常用句型:What’s the matter? / What’s wrong? / What’s the trouble? / What’s the problem? / What has happened ? 注意matter、problem和trouble是名词,前面用冠词,其次注意what’s the matter在宾语从句中语序不变,而problem和trouble要改变语序。选A.
10.本题是特定情景下的语意辨析题。她父亲此时的心情应该是“焦虑”worried,因为没有办法想出来。选B.
11.本题是特定情景下的语意辨析题。A、B肯定不对。under表示“在正下方”,below表示“(楼/山/窗)底下”。选C.
12.本题考查语言知识的句型搭配。so… that…“如此…以至于…”。选D.
13.本题考查语意辨析。“弄清事实/真相”,用find out。选A.
14.本题考查情景判断。女孩为了让国王相信她的不得已,“假装”很害怕,用pretend。选D.
15.本题考查逻辑推理。从晚上洗衣服这一行为可以推断白天“很忙”。选A.
16.本题考查上下文意义的一致。从上文的do her washing,可见是洗衣服。选B.
17.本题考查固定词组的含义。make a fool of me“把我当傻瓜;愚弄我”。选D.
18.本题考查上下文逻辑意义的推理。本句意思是:如果国王亲自命令某人去取公牛的奶,为什么男人就不能生小孩呢?选A.
19.本题考查上下文信息的呼应。答案应该是很直观的。选B.
20.本题考查上下文信息的观察和呼应。答案很明显由上文的my father had a baby提示,应该是baby。选D.
