Answer 1

【答案】
（1）

（2）

Why not gather some food during the summer?

（3）was singing
（4）B
（5）

然后蚂蚁们继续工作。

【解析】当懒惰的蚱蜢在冬天向勤劳的蚂蚁求助的时候，蚂蚁会怎么做呢？
（1）短语have something do do，有事做。所以翻译“我没有东西吃了。”为：I have nothing to eat.
（2）Why didn't you gather some food during the summer?为什么你在夏天不搜集食物。why don't you do sth=why not do sth。所以同义句为Why not gather some food during the summer?
（3）根据句中提供的时间状语 all day and night during the summer夏天整日整夜，应该用过去进行时，表示在过去某一段时间期间一直进行的动作，故填was singing。
（4）A.你唱的很好，我们都喜欢你的歌；B.你可以整个夏天唱歌，你也可以整个冬天跳舞；C.你是这里最好的歌手之一，我们为你喝彩；D.你想给我们表演一个吗？根据下文You only played and did not work during the summer. We'll never lend you any food你在夏天只玩耍不干活，我们不会借给你任何食物，可知蚂蚁在讽刺蚱蜢，既然夏天唱歌，冬天就活该（冻得）跳舞。故选B。
（5）go on doing sth继续做某事。故答案是：然后蚂蚁们继续工作。
