（2015 厦门市中考）
Two men were going through a forest.
“ I am afraid,” said one, “that we may meet with wild animals” “Fear nothing, friend
Quickwit,” cried the other, whose name was Braggart. “If they come at us, we shall stand by one
another like men. I have a strong arm, a strong heart, and-”
“Hark!”cried the first in fear, as a low sound was heard from somewhere nearby,
Braggart, who was light and nimble, climbed up a tree like a squirrel(松鼠), leaving his
friend, who was not so active, to face the danger alone! Quickwit could do nothing but
throw himself on the ground and pretended(假装) to be dead; for he had heard that bears
would never touch a dead body. In no time the bear camp up to him, sniffed(用鼻子吸
气) at him. Quickwit did not dare to move; and the bear, thinking him dead, went off
into the wood again, leaving him quite unharmed!

【答案与解析】
Ⅰ. 单项选择。
1.
B。本题考查there be 的一般疑问句的用法，表示“某地有某物”应该用there be 句
型，
故排除C, D 项；there be 句型构成一般疑问句时直接把be 动词放在句子的开头，因为本
句的主语a book 是单数，所以be 要用is。
2. B。本句考查介词的用法，在两者之间用介词between。本句子的意思是“商店在早上

8 点到下午5 点之间营业”。among 是表示在多者之间，介词from 经常和to 搭配构成介词
短语from to 表示“从......到......”的意思。介词at 用在点钟前，例如：at six o’clock 在
6 点钟。
3. B。由they’re opposite to each other 可知他们是相对的位置关系。
4. B。本句子是考查介词的用法，在表示一个物体在另一个物体外部的前面用介词短语in
front of，而介词短语in the front of 表示一个物体在另一个物体内部的前面。根据句意选
B。
5. C。Excuse me 用于问路、插话、要离开、表示异议等场合，常在事发前使用；此题是
问路，故选C。
6. C。句意：“哪一条路是去邮局的？”，“去……的路”应该用“the way to …”，故
选C。
7. C。本句子是考查介词的用法，表示“去某地的路”要用短语the way to someplace，在
这个短语中固定搭配介词to，不能用介词of。
8. B。“向左转”应该是“turn left”；“on the left”意为“在左边”。
9. C。“…away from +地点”意为“离……有多远”。
10. C。“spend some time (in) doing sth.”意为“花费多长时间做某事”。
11. B。“enjoy doing sth.”意为“喜欢做某事”。
12. C。“Alice 很漂亮。她看起来像她妈妈。”；“looks like”意为“看起来像”。
13. C。表示“人感到……”，应该用-ed 结尾的形容词；因此本题选C。
14. A。“spend +时间/金钱+on sth.”意为“在……花费时间/金钱”。
15. C。“be good at= do well in”意为“在……做的好”。
【真题链接】
1.B。根据答语“但是中央大街有几家书店”可知应为否定回答，结合前句“are there any
book stores around here?”可知B 答案正确。
2.B。根据句意可知，此处泛指“一个更好的居住环境”；better 的读音以辅音音素开头，
应用不定冠词a 修饰。故选B。
3.B。句意：天气预报说明天将会有另一场暴雨。there will have 形式不对；there will be 将
会有；there has 形式不对；there has been 已经有。根据句意可知，这里考查的是there be
句型的将来时，故应选B。
Ⅱ. 完形填空。
1. B。本题考查动词go 的否定形式，主语是第三人称单数形式，所以用助动词doesn’t＋go
构成否定句。
2. A。本空考查动词go 的否定形式，主语是复数形式，所以用助动词don’t＋go 构成否定
句。
3. B。由“The park is near their house”可知距离很近，所以本空用动词短语take a walk
表示“走着去公园”。
4. B。从短文下面的意思和情景可以判断“公园里有许多人”，people 是可数名词，所以
用many 修饰。
5. A。从短文中的前后句可以判断此处是一般现在时，动词短语“弹吉他”应该是play
the guitar，句子的主语是复数，所以谓语用动词原形。
6. B。本空是考查动词不定式的用法，在to 的后面用动词原形构成动词不定式。
7. C。本空是考查介词with 的用法，它的意思是“和某人一起”。
8. A。主语是是第三人称单数形式，所以谓语动词用plays。
9. A。句子的主语是复数，所以谓语用动词原形。

Sixth Avenue. When you see a post office, turn right and you’ll see a white house.
That’s my home.
I hope you will have a good trip.
Yours,
