试题分值：50.0

得分：[5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5]

提⽰：[1]A.考察上下⽂理解。本句⼤意是“⼀天当Billy在⼤街上⾏⾛的时候，他______⼀个钱包”。四个选项：“found”意思是“发现了”，“bought”意思是“买了”，“carried”意思是“搬运”，“wanted”意思是“想要”。再看后⾯那句话的意思“他将钱包还给了失主，Baker先⽣”。据此可知第⼀个空格应该选择“found”。

[2]C.考察句意理解。本句⼤意是“Baker先⽣就向Billy道谢”。这⾥选择“thanks”组成“givethanks to sb.”表⽰“向某⼈道谢”。

[3]D.考察上下⽂理解。本句⼤意是“因为Billy还没有⼯作，所以Baker先⽣就让他在⾃⼰的_____

⾥为⾃⼰⼯作”。选项中的四个名词：factory（⼯⼚），office（办公室）和home（家）似乎都可以填⼊。但是我们再看后⾯的那个句⼦“Billy⼯作⼗分卖⼒，所以Baker夫妇对他都很满意。”据此可以先推测Billy是在Baker先⽣家⾥做家务等⼯作。选择Home。其实，我们可以再往后⽂看看，就会发现Billy确实是在Baker的家⾥⼯作。

[4]A.考察句意。本句⼤意是“Billy⼯作⼗分卖⼒，所以Baker夫妇对他都______。”选项中只有“pleased”（⾼兴的，满意的）适合这⾥。

[5]D.考察上下⽂。本句⼤意是“Baker先⽣喜欢种植______。”再看下句“上上周，Baker先⽣买回来⼏棵树，……。”据此可知答案时“trees”（树）。

[6]A.考察句意理解。本句⼤意是“上上周，Baker先⽣买回来⼏棵树，并且亲⾃将树种植在______，每天都给树浇⽔。”这⾥明显选择“garden”（花园）。

[7]B.考察句意理解。本句⼤意是“⼏天_____，Baker先⽣得到另⼀个城市去。”这⾥选择“later”（之后）最适合。

[8]D.考察上下⽂理解。前⾯⼏句提到Baker临⾛的时候交待Billy照顾好⾃⼰的树⽊，本句Billy回答道：“别_______它们（树）”。这⾥选择worry组成“worry about”，意思是“为……担⼼”。[9]C.考察时态。根据句⼦中的ever（曾经），我们这⾥选择“has”，组成现在完成时。本句⼤意是“这些天有⼈来偷树吗？”

[10]B.考察句意理解。本句⼤意是“为了阻⽌别⼈来偷树，6天前我就把这些树给_____。我都把树藏了⼏乎⼀周了。”明显这⾥填⼊“拔了”。“pull up”的意思就是“拔起”。⼆、单项选择题（共10道⼩题，共50.0分）
