  The house next door had been empty for so long that we had quite forgotten what it was to have neighbors. One day,   1   , a great furniture lorry drew up near our front gate and in a short time, all kinds of furniture were   2   on the pavement. A small car arrived, out of which came seven people; a man, a woman and five children of   3   ages. The children hurried out and began laughing  4   as the whole family moved into the house. Windows were   5   open; furniture was put into   6  ; and little faces looked curiously at us over the fence and disappeared. It was our first   7   to the Robinsons.

    Though we became firm   8   with our new neighbors, we often had causes to be made angry by them. Our garden became an unsafe place: little boys   9   as cowboys or Indians would jump up from behind bushes,   10   wooden guns at us and   11   us to put our hands up. Sometimes our lives were   12   ; at others, we were killed with a   13  “Bang! Bang”. Even more dangerous were the arrows that occasionally came sailing  14    the garden fence.

    But we did not   15   go in fear for our lives. The Robinsons were friendly and helpful and when we left for the holidays, we knew we had nothing to fear  16   our neighbors were around. We understood what it was like to have  17   in the long friendless winter evenings   18   Mr. Robinson would   19   in for a cup of tea and chat; or when Mr.  Robinson would    20   over the fence and talk endlessly with father about gardening problems.

解析:

解析:这篇短文是关于如何与新来的邻居和睦友好相处的。文章记叙了邻居的孩子在游戏时的顽皮和可爱。

    1题,这里表示转折之意,根据本句结构只能用副词however,不能用连词butBD词义不符。

    2题,load装载,装料,装填;unload卸车,指把家具从车上搬下来;remove移动,迁移,搬家,词义在此不准确。

    3题,从文章中可知道,是新搬来的邻居,有5个孩子,年龄当然不同,of various ages指不同年龄的。

    4题,搬到新家,孩子们自然是愉快地欢笑,BCD不合题意。

    5题,force open撞开;break...open打开;kick...open……踢开;push...open……推开。 ABC均有撞开之意,不符文意,因此选D

    6题,place指放置某物的地方,此处指把家具摆放到合适的位置,room则指空间。

    7题,interview接见,会见;arrangement排列,安排;management经营,管理,处理;introduction意为认识介绍,是最合适的选项。

    8题,根据上下文,邻居之间自然是以朋友相处。

    9题,little boys 9 as cowboys or Indians would jump up from behind bushes,根据文章的含义:小男孩们会装扮成牛仔或是印第安人,dress as装扮成,因此选C

    10题,装扮成牛仔的男孩子们用木头枪指着”(point at)我们。

    11题,他们手里有枪,因此应该是命令我们举起手来。Order us to put our hands up:命令我们举起手来。因此选B

    12题,根据句子的含义:有时我们还会被他们救过来。有时随着砰砰的枪声我们会被杀死的。

    13题,这里形容枪声。sharp用来形容修饰“Bang! Bang!”

    14题,come sailing over,从……上方飞过来,sailing形容玩具飞的速度并不快。

    15题,但我们并不总是有这样的烦恼。

    16题,这里表条件,只要有邻居存在,我们就没有什么可担心的。as long as只要。

    17题,我们也会理解在这没有朋友的寒冷漫长的冬天夜晚有人做伴聊天是什么样子。have company意为有人做伴

    18题,when引导定语从句修饰evenings,在从句中作状语。

    19题,drop in表示过来拜访。drop in on sb.顺便拜访某人;drop in at 8 place顺便拜访,后接表示地点的名词。

    20题,lean倚靠,依赖,倾斜;lean over sth.表示伏在……上面
