一、一个寒冷的夜晚,Alice从Jenny家骑自行车回家,在路上她为一位开车的神秘的老妇人指路。
1.A 上文说主人公不怕黑,后文的but表语意转折,她开始希望自己没那么勇敢(brave)。故选A。
2.D grow cold变得很冷。
3.D 车中的something指的是后文的old lady,故选moved。
4.A 下文old lady说她迷路了(lost),所以是需要帮助(help)。
5.D 由下文Alice的回答可知机场离此处很远,所以选certainly,意为“你当然迷路了”。
6.A 老妇人坐在车里,所以此处应该表示开车(drive)前往目的地。
7.B 由常识可知,沿途应该有去往飞机场的标识(signs)。
8.D 由下文的“Don't worry”可知,Alice认为老妇人不可能在5分钟内到达,故用no way。
9.C 固定用法,make it表示成功做成某事。
10.B 由第二段中的slide down得知车窗摇下来了,所以这里对应moved up的应该是车窗(window)。
11.C 上文Alice建议老妇人要往回走,所以这里对应车子要掉头才对, 所以选C。
12.A 根据下文的“车开始变形”可知应选strange。
13.B 根据文意可知车子的轮子不见了,故车子是在空中“悬浮”着向前。
14.D 由空后“into the dark sky”可知车子是飞起升上天空了。rise升起。
15.C tune指音符;voice指嗓音;sound指自然界的一切声音;tone指语气。文中指汽车发出的声音,故要用sound。
