答案:
1.A 2.C 3.D 4.A 5.D 6.C 7.B 8.D 9.C 10.A 【解析】 试题分析:本文讲述了国王阿克巴有个好猜谜的习惯。经常让他的大臣们猜谜并热衷于那些奇怪的谜语。有一次他问了一个非常奇怪的问题,这时伯巴勒走进了大殿。伯巴勒知道国王这个猜谜的习惯。在国王问城市里有多少只乌鸦时,伯巴勒机智地作出了回答。国王很满意他的这个答案。 1.考查名词及语境的理解。宾语questions提示和动词ask构成动宾关系,表示“问问题”,B、C为动词,两个动词连用应该用动词不定式,跟名词advice时,ask后须跟介词for。 故选A。 2.考查形容词及语境的理解。前文had to “不得不”,提示下文用形容词clever表示“明智的;聪明的”。故选C。 3.考查引导词及语境的理解。下文“他的臣民们低下头寻找答案”可知前文是时间状语从句,用as引导时间状语从句表示“当……时候”。故选D。 4.考查动词及语境的理解。根据下句“他立刻明白了当前的形势”可知上文是伯巴勒“知道”国王猜谜的习惯。用动词knew表示“知道;了解”。故选A。 5.考查名词及语境的理解。承接上文“他了解国王的习惯”,说明他明白当时的“形势”,用situation表示“情况;形势”。故选D。 6.考查动词及语境的理解。动词try 和for连用,try for 表示“谋求;尝试”,和answer构成动宾关系,表示“寻找一个答案”。故选C。 7.考查介词及语境的理解。下文他立刻说出了一个具体数字,和even“甚至”的提示意义说明上文是“甚至没有经过片刻的思索”,用介词without表示“无;没有”,表示否定意义。故选B。 8.考查形容词和语境的理解。对于他说出的具体数字,根据常理,国王是询问“你如何能这么确信?”be sure表示“确信的;有把握的”。故选D。 9.考查动词和语境的理解。承接上文,伯巴勒回答国王的问题是“让你的臣民们数一下”,用动词count表示“数”,和上面的数字对应。 故选C。 10.考查形容词和语境的理解。综合这两句话的意义“如果多了就是有来走亲戚的;如果少了,是去走亲戚了”可以推断空格处用fewer,表示“少”这一意义,和上句的more对应。 故选A。 考点:故事类短文阅读。
