解析
文章大意：一位老师问她的学生们一件事情，是谁打碎了玻璃，全班三十个学生不仅仅想他们已经做了什么，还有老师可能发现了什么。老师又问了一遍，她从没生气过，但是这次她生气了。作者是打碎玻璃的人，他并不是故意的，他很矛盾是不是应该承认，如果承认的话，他会有很多麻烦，他担心自己赔偿不了那么大的一块玻璃，不想举手。但是一些更强大的东西促使他站里起来，并且说：“是我做的”。他的老师到书架上拿了一本书，然后走向了他的桌子，他害怕老师会惩罚他。原来老师送给他一本书，并告诉他没有受到惩罚是由于他的诚实。作者不敢相信，没有受到惩罚并得到了一本书。这本他已经省下所有钱想买的特别的书。

1．think about 考虑；回想，是固定词组。

2．在这里broken glass表示“破碎的玻璃”，是不可数名词，不能用many或a修饰，因此正确答案是C。

3．此句意思是“我是那个打碎玻璃的人”。此句是一个定语从句，先行词是the one，表示人，要用who。

4．从上下句联系可看出是一个糟糕的投球导致打碎玻璃的后果，因此正确答案是bad。

5．在这里介词前需要用be动词，其他两项搭配不正确。

6．从上下句可看出是表示转折，要用连词but，表示“但是”。

7．在这里应该用It做形式主语，真正的主语是后面的saying what I had。

8．表示一个人的两个动作交替或同时进行，表示两个短促行为或时间几乎同时发生，要用as。

9．介词for可表示“因为，由于”，其他两项并无此义。

10．very是形容词，在这里表示“特别的”，最符合句子意思。

解析
人类已经发明了四种人造卫星。第一种卫星研究地球的地理。它们被用来制造地图。它们也能帮助城市发现哪里可能有石油或黄金。

第二种人造卫星用来操纵轮船和飞机。一艘轮船或一架飞机能发送给人造卫星信息，人造卫星能找出轮船或飞机的位置。

第三种人造卫星研究天气。这些人造卫星观看+地球周围移动的云和强风。当非常糟糕的天气要来临的时候，它们会给城市警报。最后一种人造卫星是用于交流。城市中的电话呼叫会被这些人造卫星发送。一些卫星能在同一时间传送上百个电话。呼叫发射到人造卫星，然后人造卫星发送到城市的一个位置，这个城市就会被电话呼叫。这些人造卫星也可以传送图片，它们一次能接收并发送8个左右的程序。

1．  根据后面提到的“They also help countries to see where they may ______oil or gold.”可推断是与地理有关的。

2．  此句意思是“它们也能帮助城市发现哪里可能有石油或黄金”，因此find最为合适。

3．  send a message发送信息，固定搭配。

4．  根据常识可知，卫星可发现轮船和飞机的位置，因此要用where，在这里where引导了宾语从句。

5．  see表示“看”；notice表示“注意”，watch表示“看；观看；监视”，因此用watch最符合句子意思。

6．  根据前面提到的 “They warn countries to make preparations…”可推断应该是坏天气，否则不会发警报。

7．  以上已经提到了三种人造卫星，不难判断此处应表示“最后一种卫星”，可知正确答案。

8．  表示“在……之中”，可用between和among，但是二者区别在于between表示“两者之间”，而among表示“三者或三者以上”，不可能只有两个城市，因此正确答案是among。

9．  根据 “The call is sent to the satellite”可判断是“然后人造卫星发送到城市的一个位置”，可知正确答案。

10．A为戏剧；B为“程序”；C为“电影”，可推断B最符合句子意思。

解析
本文为说明文，向人们介绍了“愚人节”及相关有趣的故事。

1.B由语境可知，这个孩子受到了人们的愚弄。故为“可怜的孩子”。A为“聪明的”，D为“激动的”，C为“好的”，均不符合语境。

2.C得知校长找他，这个孩子当然会开始担心。worry about sth.“为……担心”。A、B、D均不符合语境。

3.A. play tricks on sb.“高某人的恶作剧”。B、C、D均不符合语境。

4.B.由语境可知，人们在愚人节期间开“无害的玩笑”。A.“有害的”，C“好的”D“有趣的”。

10.C.由语境可知，人们实际上相信了这个故事。Realize“意识到”，accept“接受”，understand“理解”，均不符合语境。

A、 is hit 
　 　
B、 was hit 
　 　
C、 was hitted
　 　

答案:B

解析
此句意思是“Sandy，你怎么了？你看起来很焦虑。” “我的宠物猫今天下午被车撞了，它现在在医院”。 主语My pet cat是动作的承受者，因此要用被动语态，由于是已经发生过的事情，要用一般过去时，排除A；hit的过去分词是原形形式，因此排除C。正确答案是B。

C、 Why not
　 　

答案:A

解析

B、 entered; gently 
　 　
C、 came into; gentely
