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.

答案:C;A;B;A;D;A;B;C;C;D;B;B;C;C;A;C;D;B;A;C
解析:

解析:這篇短文是關(guān)于如何與新來(lái)的鄰居和睦友好相處的。文章記敘了鄰居的孩子在游戲時(shí)的頑皮和可愛(ài)。

    第1題,這里表示轉(zhuǎn)折之意,根據(jù)本句結(jié)構(gòu)只能用副詞however,不能用連詞but、B、D詞義不符。

    第2題,load裝載,裝料,裝填;unload為“卸車(chē)”,指把家具從車(chē)上搬下來(lái);remove移動(dòng),遷移,搬家,詞義在此不準(zhǔn)確。

    第3題,從文章中可知道,是新搬來(lái)的鄰居,有5個(gè)孩子,年齡當(dāng)然不同,of various ages指不同年齡的。

    第4題,搬到新家,孩子們自然是“愉快地”歡笑,B、C、D不合題意。

    第5題,force open把…撞開(kāi);break...open打開(kāi);kick...open把……踢開(kāi);push...open把……推開(kāi)。 A、B、C均有“撞開(kāi)”之意,不符文意,因此選D。

    第6題,place指放置某物的地方,此處指把家具擺放到合適的位置,room則指空間。

    第7題,interview接見(jiàn),會(huì)見(jiàn);arrangement排列,安排;management經(jīng)營(yíng),管理,處理;introduction意為“認(rèn)識(shí)”或“介紹”,是最合適的選項(xiàng)。

    第8題,根據(jù)上下文,鄰居之間自然是以“朋友”相處。

    第9題,little boys 9 as cowboys or Indians would jump up from behind bushes,根據(jù)文章的含義:小男孩們會(huì)裝扮成牛仔或是印第安人,dress as裝扮成,因此選C。

    第10題,裝扮成牛仔的男孩子們用木頭槍“指著”(point at)我們。

    第11題,他們手里有槍,因此應(yīng)該是命令我們舉起手來(lái)。Order us to put our hands up:命令我們舉起手來(lái)。因此選B。

    第12題,根據(jù)句子的含義:有時(shí)我們還會(huì)被他們救過(guò)來(lái)。有時(shí)隨著砰砰的槍聲我們會(huì)被殺死的。

    第13題,這里形容槍聲。sharp用來(lái)形容修飾“Bang! Bang!”。

    第14題,come sailing over,從……上方飛過(guò)來(lái),sailing形容玩具飛的速度并不快。

    第15題,但我們并不總是有這樣的煩惱。

    第16題,這里表?xiàng)l件,只要有鄰居存在,我們就沒(méi)有什么可擔(dān)心的。as long as只要。

    第17題,我們也會(huì)理解在這沒(méi)有朋友的寒冷漫長(zhǎng)的冬天夜晚有人做伴聊天是什么樣子。have company意為“有人做伴”。

    第18題,when引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句修飾evenings,在從句中作狀語(yǔ)。

    第19題,drop in表示過(guò)來(lái)拜訪。drop in on sb.順便拜訪某人;drop in at 8 place順便拜訪,后接表示地點(diǎn)的名詞。

    第20題,lean倚靠,依賴,傾斜;lean over sth.表示“伏在……上面”。
