4.Zigfried,a little mouse,blew his breath on the frosty window of the farmhouse and rubbed it to see the outside.Still nobody came.Maybe today,he thought (31)hopefully.It was only a few days before Christmas and he was watching for a miracle (奇迹).This farmhouse had been(32)noisy too long.It needed a family.Zigfried's(33)stomachmade a noise.He realized that he hadn't eaten anything since yesterday.He jumped from the windowsill (窗沿),grabbed a (34)bag from his home,and went next door to Farmer Mike's.
Farmer Mike's house had been a great place for the little mouse (35)until the farmer married a wife who had a cat.Zigfried (36)trembled when he thought of it.He looked around cautiously as he (37)stole into the room where grain was stored and was quite (38)nervous as he filled his bag with wheat.He was turning to leave when suddenly he (39)felt a hot breath about his ear.His heart beat (40)wildly,and without thinking he started to run and luckily (41)escaped the cat's paws (爪子).
The next afternoon Zigfried heard some good news:a (42)new family would be moving into the farmhouse soon.Zigfried's granny would arrive on Christmas Eve to
(43)celebrate with him.He hoped that the family would come before his granny came.Before long,a car came (44)up the road leading to the house,with butter sandwiches,cheese and chocolate.
Zigfried's Christmas miracle did arrive!
The house came(45)alive the next few days.Zigfried(46)enjoyed every single hour of them. (47)However,the day before Christmas when he was drinking hot chocolate with a (48)satisfied smile at the door of his home,he heard the (49)discussion of the children of the family about what they might get for Christmas.What?A cat?The (50)smile froze on his face; his mouth fell wide open.After a long while,he at last found his voice:"Hey!Whose Christmas miracle is this?"

分析 本文是一篇记叙文,一个幽默诙谐的小故事:小老鼠Zigfried住在一座空荡荡的农舍,没吃没喝.圣诞节快到了,这座房子搬来了新主人,Zigfried过上了富足的生活.可惜好景不长,圣诞节这家的孩子就会有一只猫陪伴他们了.那么,Zigfried这个圣诞节会过得怎么样呢?可想而知了.通过本文作者旨在说明人在得意安逸的时候,不能忘本,要有忧患意识.
解答 31.C 考查副词辨析.从语境的叙述看,这只小老鼠在窗户上哈气,然后把窗户擦亮,它满怀希望地想,或许今天会有人来.这里用hopefully指它的一种心情.其中关键词maybe(或许,有可能)说明对奇迹是否在今天出现不能十分肯定,只是"有希望".B项excitedly(激动地,兴奋地)在这里描述小老鼠的心情是不合适的.
32.D 考查形容词辨析.根据下文说"这座农舍需要有一家人住下"可知,这里表示这座农舍空荡荡的,没有人住.因此选D项.
33.C 考查名词辨析.根据下文"它意识到自己从昨天起就没有吃东西了"由常识可知,饿的时候是"肚子"叫,而不是"嘴巴""鼻子"或者"喉咙"因此选C项.
34.A 考查名词辨析.句意:它从自己的窝里拿起一个袋子就跑到隔壁的农民迈克家去了.根据下文第三段第38空所在句说它把口袋装满了小麦可知,这是很重要的提示.因此选A.
35.B 考查连词辨析.根据语境可知,用until表示"直到"迈克家一直是这只小老鼠的天堂,直到迈克娶了妻子,而他的妻子带来了一只猫.猫是老鼠的天敌,猫来了对老鼠来说并不是一件好事,也就是说老鼠的好日子到头了.因此选B项.
36.C 考查动词辨析.根据常识可知,老鼠害怕猫.所以一想到他家的那只猫,Zigfried就(害怕得)浑身发抖.因此选C.
37.D 考查动词辨析.根据语境可知,这里用steal(into)描述小老鼠小心翼翼的神态和动作:它一边谨慎地向四周看,一边蹑手蹑脚地溜进存放谷物的房间.其中cautiously(小心翼翼地)是解题的关键点.因此选D.
38.B 考查形容词辨析.由前面提到,因为害怕那只猫,它很小心可知,因此在往袋子里装粮食的时候"很紧张".nervous形象地描述了老鼠当时害怕的心理.因此选B.
39.C 考查动词辨析.根据语境可知,就在老鼠转身准备离开的时候,它感觉到耳旁有呼出的热气.这里用feel表示"感觉"到外来的呼吸.因此选C.
40.D 考查副词辨析.根据语境可知,老鼠知道形势不妙,猫来了,就在它旁边,面对危机,老鼠的心怦怦乱跳.one's heart beat wildly"心怦怦乱跳"因此选D.
41.A 考查动词辨析.根据句中关键词"luckily"可知,这是解题的提示.老鼠赶紧逃窜,幸运地躲过了那只猫的抓捕.因此选A.
42.C 考查形容词辨析.由上文提到,这座农舍很长时间空荡荡的,没有人居住,既然是要搬来人家,那么应该是"新来的".因此选C.
43.A 文章提到圣诞节,那么应该是celebrate"庆祝",因此选A项.语境表示奶奶要来跟它一起庆祝这个圣诞节.
44.D 考查动词辨析.句意:不久,一辆汽车沿着通向这座房子的路驶来,载着黄油三明治、奶酪和巧克力.根据句意可知,这里用介词up描述动作由远及近的方向,come up the road沿着这条路驶来.因此选D.
45.A 考查形容词辨析.根据语境可知,这座农舍因为有人的搬入,有了人气,开始充满活力,表示"有生气,有活力".其他各项不符合语境.因此选A.
46.B 考查动词辨析.根据语境可知,句中的them指前面提到的days,有人搬进来了,接下来的几天里,房子里面又开始活跃起来了,Zigfried尽情享受着每时每刻.用enjoy表示"喜欢,享受".因此选B.
47.A 考查副词辨析.由下文"What?A cat?"可知,孩子们是讨论圣诞节用猫做礼物的信息,老鼠的好日子到头了,故用转折副词however,表示"可是,然而".因此选A.
48.D 考查形容词辨析.根据语境可知,这家原先没人居住,老鼠总是挨饿,而现在,它在自家门口喝着热巧克力,当然是觉得很满足了.a satisfied smile"满足的笑容".因此选D.49.B 考查名词辨析.根据语境可知,这里用discussion指这些孩子七嘴八舌地在讨论他们圣诞节会得到什么礼物.因此选B.
50.B 考查名词辨析.根据第48空的smile可知,这里用smile与第48空的smile呼应.听说这家的孩子圣诞节就会有只猫了,老鼠Zigfried脸上原本满意的笑容一下子僵住了.因此选B.

"I'm never allowed to have friends come to the house?Why,Mum?"James asked sadly,almost in (39)tears.
"I know it's(40)hard for you,"Mum said softly."But I'm just worried other people might think we're a little…strange.And then they would make fun of you."
"No,they wouldn't,Mum,"James protested."We're not(41)strangeat all.We're just ordinary people."
Mum sighed heavily."To tell you the truth,James,my neck has been so painful that it's given me a heavy (42)headache.And your poor father-he doesn't feel (43)well.He really needs a rest."
"I can help,Mum!"James said."(44)If I can make you and Dad feel better,can Brett come over?Please?"
"Well…"Mum began.
"Great!Thanks,Mum!"James almost shouted."Just sit there,don't move."He rushed over to the kitchen drawer and(45)found what he needed-two.com spanners."Hang on,Mum,"he said."This won't take a second."After some (46)repairs,James was finished.With a smile of (47)satisfaction on his face he said,"There!How does that feel?""Oh,James,"Mum said."That's a much better!How did you do it?"
"Easy,"James said (48)proudly."Dad had tightened your neck bolts (螺栓) too much!I just(49)adjusted them slightly!I learned that in robotic science at school."
"What about your father?Can you(50)help him?"asked Mum.
"I'll try,"James replied.He(51)lifted up Dad's hair at the back of his neck.and plugged the electric wire into Dad's head.Then he turned the(52)poweron.Dad opened his eyes and (53)satup immediately."He just let his (54)batteryrun too low,that's all,"James said,"Shall I tell Brett to come over straight after school tomorrow?"
"I guess so,"replied Mum."Your friends will just have to(55)acceptthat we are a very unusual family.Thanks,son!"
