主旨大意：本文是一篇记叙文。讲述了爷爷和我打赌说我并没有如我所想的那么多真正的朋友。然后，爷爷给我一张有魔力的隐形椅帮我测试出我有多少好朋友。
13.考查动词词义辨析。accepted 接受；started 开始；received收到；made做；制作。make the bet“打赌”为固定短语。故答案选D。
14. 考查连词的用法。after在……之后；as 作为，当……时；until直到……才；before在……之前。根据下文“Grandpa walked towards me and it seemed that he was carrying something in his hand.”可知此时在家里，所以上文应该是在上学之前。故答案选D。
15.考查复合不定代词的用法。something 某物；nothing什么也没有；anything 任何事物，任何东西；everything一切事物，一切东西。根据下文 Because it's invisible可知此处填nothing。故答案选B。
16.考查形容词词义辨析。important重要的；comfortable舒服的；special特别的；expensive昂贵的。因为椅子是隐形的，所以很特别，故答案选C。
17.考查副词词义辨析。carefully仔细地；slowly慢慢地；quickly飞快地；successfully成功地。根据上文隐形的椅子很难坐在上面可知，这儿应该填successfully。故答案为D。
18.考查动词词义辨析。warned警告；asked请，叫，问；refused拒绝；promised答应。句意：课间时我叫大家站成一圈……。故答案为B。
19.考查名词词义辨析。chance机会；popcorn 爆米花；friend朋友；chair椅子。根据上文谈论的话题可知这儿填chair。故答案为D。
20.考查副词词义辨析。Finally最后；Immediately 立刻，立即；Next 下面，接下去；Indeed真正地。根据上文“I kept trying to sit on the magic chair again and again.”可知这儿填Finally。 故答案为A。
21.考查名词词义辨析。fun 乐趣；magic魔力；pleasure快乐；trouble麻烦。上文爷爷说这是一张有魔力的隐形椅，那么我现在正在经历这种魔力。故答案为B。
22.考查固定搭配。make fun of sb.“取笑、嘲笑某人”，故选C。
