One day when the captain had come from a voyage with a lot of money,the merchant told him that the price of iron(铁) had      and suggested that he should buy some with his money. “I’ll      it for you in my storehouse     you return from your next voyage,and perhaps you’ll get     money.”
But while the captain was away,the price of iron went up very    ,so the merchant sold it and kept the money.When the captain came back,his    friend told him that he was very sorry and the mice had    all the iron.

试题分析:这篇短文讲述的是一个小故事。有两个好朋友,一个是船长,一个是商人。商人的儿子想当船员,所以就跟着船长出海。一次,铁的价格降低了,船长买了很多铁存放在商人朋友那里,就又出海了。后来铁的价格涨的很高,商人卖了铁,将前据为己有,等船长回来时,他谎称铁被老鼠吃掉了。船长没说什么,等下一次船长出海回来,对商人说他的儿子被鸟叼走了。
小题1:考查名词及语境的理解。句意:商人有一个儿子想当一名水手,于是船长就带着他在自己的船上出海。根据上文可知,captain 是船长,故应该是带他在自己的船上去出海,故用ship。car 汽车;train 火车;这两项与文意不符;boat 小船;ship轮船。故选B。
小题2:考查动词及语境的理解。句意:一天,船长带着很多钱出海回来,商人对他说铁的价格下降了,建议他买一些。根据文意,铁的价格应该是降低了,所以才会劝船长买一些。fall 下降;change 改变;rise 上升;widen加宽。根据文意可知选A。
小题3:考查动词及语境的理解。句意:我会在我的储藏室里为你保存着。hide 藏,隐藏;hold 举行,拿着;put 放置;keep保存。根据文意可知商人劝船长买一些铁,然后在储藏室里保存。故选D。
小题4:考查连词及语境的理解。句意:我会在我的储藏室里为你保存着直到你下次出海回来。when 当...时候;since 自从;until 直到……时候;after在……之后。根据句意可知保存到出海回来,故用until。
小题5:考查形容词及语境的理解。句意:也许你会得到更多的钱。less 更少;many 许多;more 更多;little少。商人觉得以低价买的铁以后价格也许会升高,故可以赚更多的钱。故选C。
小题6:考查形容词及语境的理解。句意:当船长离开的时候,铁的价格升的很高。slowly 慢地;expensive 昂贵的;cheap 便宜的;high高的。由下文可知铁的价格升高了,故A、C不对。修饰价格应该用high,而不是expensive,故选D。
小题7:考查形容词及语境的理解。句意:当船长回来的时候,他的不诚实的朋友告诉他说,老鼠把铁吃掉了。根据句意可知,商人想吞下这笔钱,所以骗他的朋友说是老鼠把铁吃掉了,所以他是一个不诚实的朋友,dishonest 不诚实的。honest 诚实的;real 真实的;former以前的。故选A。
小题8:考查动词及语境的理解。句意:当船长回来的时候,他的不诚实的朋友告诉他说,老鼠把铁吃掉了。这里是商人谎称铁是被老鼠给吃掉了。eaten 吃;sold 卖;drank 喝;borrowed借。根据文意可知,老鼠不会卖或借铁,也不会是把铁喝了。故选A。
小题9:考查名词及语境的理解。句意:船长知道他的朋友在说谎。tell a lie 说谎。这里的lie 是一个名词,可数名词。lie 作动词是躺下,说谎的意思;lay 是lie 的过去式;还有下蛋的意思;lying是一个现在分词。根据句意可知选B。
小题10:考查形容词及语境的理解。句意:船长知道他的朋友在说谎,但是他保持镇静说,我知道你的储藏室里有老鼠。stay calm 保持镇静。friendly 友好的;quietly 安静的;两个是副词;angry生气的。由下文知船长并没有生气,也没有说破。故选C。
小题11:考查形容词及语境的理解。句意:几天后,船长又开始了另一次航行。the other 指两个中的另一个;another 另一个;other 其他的,另外的;others 代词,指其他的人或物。这里是说船长又要开始去航行了,故根据句意可知选B。
小题12:考查连词及语境的理解。句意:当他回到家的时候,他对商人说,很抱歉,在我们航行期间,一只鸟把你的儿子带走了。while 当……时候;after 在...之后;during 在……期间;before在……之前。根据句意可知B、D不对;while 是一个连词,后面应该跟从句,这里空后跟的是名词,故用during。
小题13:考查形容词及语境的理解。句意:商人感到非常迷惑,说鸟不可能把人带走。disappointed 失望的;puzzled 迷惑的;happy 快乐的;afraid 害怕的。这里是说商人不相信船长说的话,鸟怎么会能把一个孩子带走呢,所以是他感到很迷惑。故选B。
小题14:考查副词及语境的理解。句意:老鼠也不可能吃铁,船长回答说。neither+be/助动词/情态动词+主语,表示……也不……。either 也,用在否定句中,常放在句末;so 因此,所以;yet 还,已经。这里是用neither 的一个倒装的结构。故选B。
小题15:考查动词及语境的理解。句意:法官说,商人必须归还船长他卖铁所得的钱,而船长必须把商人的儿子带回来给他。根据上文第二段中so the merchant sold it and kept the money可知,商人把铁卖掉了,故应是卖铁所得的钱。won 赢得;lose 失去,丢失;bought 买。根据文意选D。

A small boy at summer camp received a bag of cookies in the mail from his mother. He ate a few, and then put the rest under his bed. The next day, after lunch, he went to his tent to get a cookie. The box was gone.
That afternoon a camp leader saw another boy sitting behind a tree. He was eating the stolen cookies! “That young man,” he said to himself, “must be taught not to steal.”

The boy did so and soon received another box of cookies. “Now,” said the leader, “the boy who stole your cookies is down by the lake. Go and share your cookies with him.”
