【解析】

Alex是一只与众不同的长颈鹿，他的脖子比其他长颈鹿都要短，他很担心。但是他的父母告诉他说他是特别的，的确如此，Alex吸引了很多游客来动物园参观。

【1】句意：当他长大的时候，他发现他的脖子要比其他长颈鹿的更短。wondered 想知道；found发现；hoped希望；agreed同意。根据空后面的句意his neck was much shorter than the others’可知，这是Alex发现的事实，故应选B。

【2】句意：他开始变得很担心。powerful 强大的，有力量的；interested有趣的；energetic精力充沛的；worried担心的。根据下文But his mother told him that he was special. She said it did not matter how short or long his neck was可知，Alex的妈妈说他是特别的，脖子长短并没有什么关系，这是安慰他，所以这里说明Alex很担心。故应选D。

【3】句意：Alex尽力的不去想他的短脖子。leg 腿；tail尾巴；neck脖子；nose鼻子。根据上文his neck was much shorter than the others’可知，Alex的脖子比别人的更短，故应选C。

【4】句意：但是随着他的朋友们长得越来越高，他的脖子还是保持很短。stayed 保持，停留；became变成；turned变成；felt感觉。根据句意可知，Alex的朋友们长得越来越高，但是他的脖子仍然很短，这里表示继续保持某种状态，应用stay，是一个系动词，选A。

【5】句意：有时候其他的长颈鹿嘲笑他，但是他的父母告诉他不要担心。looked after 照顾；fell下落，掉下；behind 在…后面；laughed at嘲笑；heard of听说。根据下句话but his parents told him not to worry. They said that he should be happy with himself the way he was.可知，Alex的父母告诉他不要担心，因此这里是说Alex受到了别人的嘲笑，故应选C。

【6】句意：他太矮了。tall 高的；short短的，矮的；fat胖的；thin瘦的。根据上文But as his friends grew taller and taller, his neck_____4_____short.可知，Alex是很矮的，所以不能去参加一些运动。故应选B。

【7】句意：难道就因为他没有长脖子，他就不得不离开动物园了吗？after 在…之后；unless除非，如果不，引导条件状语从句；because因为，引导原因状语从句；before在…之前，引导时间状语从句。根据句意可知，这里表示的是“因为他没有长脖子，所以离开动物园”，说的是原因，故应选C。

【8】句意：在两块区域之间有一个小门。cage 笼子；hole洞；window窗户；door门。根据下句话Alex was the only giraffe that could fit through it.可知，只有Alex能通过它，这里的it指的就是这个题目的答案，故A是不对的。B选项和C选项对于长颈鹿来说都太小了，不大可能；D选项“门”比较合理，在动物园的两个区域之间有个门，因此应选D。

【9】句意：动物园专门给你制作了一个地方，因为有那么多人想要看到你是多么的特别！him 他，人称代词宾格；you 你；us 我们，人称代词宾格；me我，人称代词宾格。根据文意可知，这是Alex的父母对他说的话，在引号中应该称呼为“你”，故应选B。

【10】句意：游客们指着他，兴奋地尖叫。excitedly兴奋地；angrily生气地；sadly伤心地；heavily重地。根据下句话They looked happy to see something so special at the zoo可知，游客们在动物园里看到了很特别的东西，他们很开心，选项中A选项与happy意思相近，所以应该是“兴奋地尖叫”，选A。

这篇短文给我们讲述了长颈鹿Alex的故事，他的脖子比其他长颈鹿的都要更短，他一开始很担心。但他的父母说他是特别的，最后真的是，很多游客都来动物园看这只特别的长颈鹿。文章是故事类的短文，文意比较容易理解。题型是完型填空，考查学生们在具体情境中运用语言的能力，综合性较强，学生们既需具备好的阅读理解、推理判断的能力，也需要对词汇的用法比较熟悉。完型填空这一题型是在具体语境中考查词汇的用法，选项中的词汇常常词性相同，在句中的作用一样，我们需要把他们放在文章中，联系上下文选择最合适的。做题时，应先通读短文，掌握大意；然后逐空做题，先易后难，注意上下文的语境提示和空前后的固定搭配；最后应再读一遍短文，检查答案。例如第2小题，选项中是四个形容词，联系上下文的意思his neck was much shorter than the others’. …But his mother told him that he was special. She said it did not matter how short or long his neck was.可知，Alex的脖子比其他长颈鹿的更短，下文说他的妈妈安慰他，说他很特别。由此我们可以推测出Alex的感受，他很担心，故应选D。再如第10小题，选项中都是副词，根据下句话They looked happy to see something so special at the zoo可知，游客们在动物园里看到了很特别的东西，他们很开心，所以四个选项中只有A与happy意思相近，这里应该是“兴奋地尖叫”，故选A。

【题目】根据短文内容,回答下列问题。

(2018·山东临沂)Have you ever counted the number of digits (数字) in your mobile phone number? Your number has 11 digits. You may sometimes find it hard to remember your number. That’s because China has the longest mobile phone numbers in the world. Why is that?

The 11 digits can be divided into three parts. Each part has a different meaning. The first three numbers tell you which mobile phone service provider (提供者) you are using For example, 135 is for China Mobile Communications Corporation and 188 is for China Unicom. The fourth to the seventh digits tell you where the number is registered (注册). And the last four digits are random (随机的).

The main reason for using 11 digits is that we have the largest population in the world. We once had 10 numbers. But as our population grew, there were not enough numbers for us to use. So we began to use 11 digits starting from 1999. Eleven digits can be used to make tens of billions of mobile phone numbers. That’s enough for each person to have seven or eight phone numbers to use in China.

And mobile phone numbers can be recycled. Usually, the service provider will reuse a canceled number after three to six months. If you call a number that you haven’t contacted (联系) for a long time, you may find that its owner has changed.

Besides China, Britain and Japan also use 11-digit mobile phone numbers. But their numbers always start with 0. So they cannot create as many numbers as we can. Countries like the United States, Australia and India use phone numbers with 10 digits. Canada’s mobile phone numbers are perhaps the shortest in the world: they use seven digits.

【题目】（题文）Every morning my father buys a newspaper on his way to work. Every evening my mother looks through magazines at home. And every night, I look at the posters with photos of David Beckham and Yao Ming on my bedroom wall before I go to sleep. Can we imagine life without paper or print?

Paper was first created about 2,000 years ago, and has been made from silk, cotton, bamboo, and, since the 19th century, from wood. People learned to write words on paper to make a book. But in those days, books could only be produced one at a time by hand. As a result, they were expensive and rare. And because there weren’t many hooks, few people learned to read.

Then printing was invented in China. When printing was developed greatly at the beginning of the 11th century, books could be produced more quickly and cheaply. As a result, more people learned to read. After that, knowledge and ideas spread quickly.

Today information can be received online, downloaded from the Internet rather than found in books, and information can be kept on CD-ROMs or machines such as MP3 players.

Computers are already used in classrooms, and newspapers and magazines can already be read online. So will books be replaced by computers one day? No, I don’t think the Yao Ming poster on my bedroom wall will ever be replaced by a computer two metres high!

【1】（小题1）What does the writer do before he goes to sleep’?

A. He reads books. B. He reads newspapers

C. He looks through magazines D. He looks at the posters on the wall.

【2】（小题2）When was paper first created?

A. About 2.000 years ago. B. In the 19th century.

C. About 1.000 years ago. D. In the 11th century.

【3】（小题3）Why were books expensive and rare before the invention of printing?

A. People could not read.

B. People could not write words on paper.

C. People could not find silk, cotton or bamboo.

D. People could only produce books one at a time by hand
