Question

Once upon a time, there were two very good friends who lived together in the shade of a rock. Strange as it may seem, one was a　    and one was a tiger. They had met when they were too　   to know the difference between lions and tigers. So they did not think their　   was at all unusual. Besides, it was a peaceful part of the mountains, possibly　    the influence of a gentle forest monk who lived nearby. He was a hermit, one who　    　far away from other people.　

For some unknown reason, one day the two friends got into a silly　    . The tiger said, “Everyone knows the cold　    when the moon wanes from full to new! ” The lion said, “Where did you hear such nonsense? Everyone knows the　    comes when the moon waxes from　    to full! ”

The argument got stronger and stronger. Neither could　     the other. They could not　     any conclusion to resolve the growing dispute. They　     started calling each other names! Fearing for their friendship, they decided to go to ask the learned forest　     , who would surely know about such things.　

Visiting the　     hermit, the lion and tiger bowed respectfully and put their question to him. The friendly monk thought for a while and then gave his　     . “It can be cold in any phase of the　     , from new to full and back to new again. It is the wind that brings the cold, 　     from west or north or east. Therefore, in a way, you are both right! And neither of you is　     by the other. The most important thing is to live without conflict, to remain　     . Unity is best by all means. ”

The lion and tiger thanked the wise hermit. They were happy to　     　be friends.

【解析】

试题分析：本篇是一则童话故事，叙述了一只老虎和一只狮子的故事。老虎和狮子同住一块岩石下，他们相互认识时由于年龄太小而不知道狮子和老虎之间的区别。所以他们并不认为他们之间的友谊有什么非同寻常。有一次老虎和狮子为了一件无所谓的事情进行了争吵，争吵愈演愈烈，甚至到了互相辱骂的程度。担心他们之间友谊会出问题，他们决定带着所争论的问题去请教博学睿智的森林和尚。在和尚的充满智慧的答复下，老虎和狮子又重归于好。故事告诉我们：不要因为小事而伤了朋友之间的友谊。

1.D 原词重现，下文有“lion”提示。不是“狐狸、鸡子或猴子”。

2.C 根据常识推断“因为年纪小，即太年轻而不知道”。 weak软弱；unforgettable难忘的；poor

贫穷；。

3.A 原词重现。下文“Fearing for their friendship, they decided to go to ask the learned forest　 ,”有提示。上下文意思是说“他们是太年轻了，以致于不知道狮子和老虎之间的区别。所以他们不认为他们的友谊是在所有中不寻常的。”故排除B项。relation关系；connection联系。

4.B上下文存在因果关系。这部分山区的安宁可能受住在附近的一位温和的和尚的影响的缘故。in turn反过来；according to根据；as to至于。

5.A live居住；survive生存；walk步行，走；move迁移。根据上下文分析“和尚”应该是“居住在附近”。

6.A原词重现，下文“The argument got stronger and stronger”有提示。不知什么原因，有一天，两个朋友陷入了愚蠢的争吵。decision决定；activity活动；conference会议。

7.C原词复现，与下题互为提示。happen发生；bear忍受；seem似乎。

8.B原词复现，与上题互为提示。Clean清洁，清楚；cool凉爽，酷；good好的。

9.D原词重现，上文“Everyone knows the cold　 when the moon wanes from full to new!”有提示。狮子跟老虎所说的正好相反。wonderful精彩的；fresh新鲜的；delicious可口的。

10.C上文说“争论越来越激烈”说明“谁也不服谁”。solve解决；compete与……竞争，比赛；convince说服，使信服；remind提醒。

11.B既然“谁也不服谁”说明他们对争论的问题“没有得出结论not reach any conclusion”。arrive到；cause引起，paint绘画。

12.D老虎跟狮子争吵得不可开交，“甚至(even)到了互相辱骂的程度”。far 远远地；ever曾经；               yet还，也，仍。

13.A 原词重现，上文“possibly　 the influence of a gentle forest monk who lived nearby.” 有提示。Monk和尚；teacher老师；mother母亲；parent父亲或母亲。

14.C “hermit”是“隐士”的意思。根据常识用来形容“隐士”的最佳词汇是“peaceful(安静的)”。Kind友善的；different不同的；rich富有的。

15.A 对应上文“the lion and tiger bowed respectfully and put their question to him.”这儿应该用“answer(回答)”。speech演讲；comment评论，注释，意见，说明；remark评论，谈论。

16.C 老虎与狮子争论的问题是围绕“cold”和“moon”展开的。所以答案为C项。sun太阳；weather天气；day白天。

17.A  whether...or无论是……还是；until直到；if 如果；when当……时候。

18.C 根据上文“Therefore, in a way, you are both right(从某种程度上说，你们俩谁都没有错)”说“谁被谁打败了(defeated)”的问题。reward酬谢，奖赏，报答；win赢；award授予，奖给。

19.B 根据下文“Unity is best by all means”的提示应该选“united(团结的)”。moved移动的，迁移的；interested感兴趣的；amused有趣的，好玩的。

20.D 争吵圆满地解决了，老虎和狮子“还是(still)好朋友”。Too也；quite相当，十分；also也。
