解析试题分析：文章讲述了一位战败的国王在一直蚂蚁的鼓励之下，重振雄风获得成功的故事，告诉我们人生贵在坚持。
【小题1】D 像亚历山大大帝一样想统治整个世界, 这是帖木儿的梦想。故此处选wished。
【小题2】C 根据本空后war推断, 帖木儿集结了一支庞大的军队(army), 然后与各国交战。
【小题3】A 与本空前conquered并列:他征服了许多国王, 摧毁了(burned)很多城邦。
【小题4】B 由前一句他的军队被打败了可知, 他只身一人从战场(battle)上逃离了。
【小题5】D 名词辨析：A. peace和平 B. relief宽慰 C. puzzlement困惑D. fear恐惧，根据上文描写他的失败，这里是害怕的，in fear。
【小题6】B 他战败了, 他的敌人自然会到处搜寻(looking for)他, 所以他惊恐地(in fear)东躲西藏。
【小题7】A 从本空后thinking of his misfortunes可以推断:他没有做其他事, 只是躺(lying)在树下思考。
【小题8】C 他独自一人东躲西藏了二十多天, 应该处于崩溃的边缘, 所以不能坚持(hold out)下去了。
【小题9】D 他一开始只是看到一只小东西在树干上爬, 他仔细(closely)一看, 发现是只小蚂蚁。
【小题10】B 由倒数第二段出现的carrying the grain of wheat可知, 这只蚂蚁搬着(carrying)一粒跟它一样大小的麦粒往上爬。
【小题11】A 由本空后home判断:树干上的一个小洞(hole)就是蚂蚁的窝。
【小题12】C 此处是说蚂蚁太勇敢了。
【小题13】D 此处指当他说这番话时。
【小题14】B 由But一词可知, 尽管它从树上掉了下来, 但它仍然(still)抓着那粒小麦。
【小题15】A 上下文就是他所观察到的(watched)情况。
【小题16】C 由下文蚂蚁进行第二十一次尝试后终于成功可知, 它前面所进行的二十次尝试的结果(result)都一样——掉在了地上。
【小题17】C 从下文的one little step at a time可知是slowly，慢慢地。
【小题18】D 由one little step at a time可推测, 它慢慢地(slowly)跨过了那个经常让它掉下来的(fallen)坎。上文fell有提示。
【小题19】B 最后, 它安全地(safely)爬进了蚂蚁窝。
【小题20】A 蚂蚁坚持的精神深深鼓舞了帖木儿, 所以他决定像蚂蚁一样, 去努力奋斗, 直到(till)成功。

IS THERE LIFE ON EARTH?
There was great excitement on the planet of Venus(金星) this week. For the first time Venusian scientists managed to land a satellite on the planet Earth, and it has been sending back signals as well as photographs ever since.?
The satellite was directed into an area known as Manhattan (named after the great Venusian astronomer Prof. Manhattan, who first discovered it with his telescope 20 000 light years ago).Because of excellent weather conditions and extremely strong signals, Venusian scientists were able to get valuable information as to feasibility(可行性) of a manned flying saucer(飞碟) landing on Earth.A press conference was held at the Venus Institute of Technology.?
“We have come to the conclusion,based on last week's satellite landing,” Pro. Zog said,“that there is no life on the Earth.”?
“How do you know this?” the science reporter of the Venus Evening Star asked. ?
“For one thing, Earth's surface in the area of Manhattan is composed of solid concrete(混凝土)and nothing can grow there. For another, the atmosphere is filled with carbon monoxide(一氧化碳) and other deadly gases and nobody could possibly breathe this air and survive.”?
“What does this mean as far as our flying saucer program is concerned?”?
“We shall have to take our own oxygen with us, which means a much heavier flying saucer than we originally planned. ”
“Are there any other hazards that you discovered in your studies?”?
“Take a look at this photo. You see this dark cloud floating over the surface of Earth? We call this the Consolidated Edison Belt. We don't know what it is made of, but it could give us a lot of trouble and we shall have to make further tests before we send a Venus Being there.”?
“If what you say is true, won't this set back the flying saucer program several years?”?
“Yes, but we shall proceed as soon as the Grubstart gives us the added funds.”?
“Prof. Zog, why are we spending billions and billions of zilches to land a flying saucer on Earth when there is no life there?”?
“Because if we Venusians can learn to breathe in an Earth atmosphere, then we can live anywhere.”
During the week of great excitement the Venusian scientists succeeded in getting important information on whether they can_______.
A. land a satellite with Venus astronauts on Earth
B. make a first?rate flying saucer?
C. get a Earth Being to Venus
D. direct a flying saucer into Manhattan?
According to Prof.Zog,the Venusians will have to take their own oxygen with them when they carry out their flying saucer program because_______.?
A. they need it on their way to the planet of Earth?
B. the Earth's atmosphere is filled with deadly gases?
C. oxygen is far from enough in the area of Manhattan where the saucer is to land?
D. there is no air on the planet of Earth?
The “dark black cloud” on the photograph refers to_______.?
A. the polluted air floating over the surface of Earth?
B. the mass of tiny drops of water floating above Earth?
C. the things that are unknown to everybody?
D. the dark clouds gathering before a storm breaks?
The author wishes to call our attention to the fact_______.?
A. that modern man has polluted his environment to such an extent that he might destroy himself if he went on like this?
B. that there is no point in spending billions and billions of zilches to land a flying saucer on Earth?
C. that pollution has become so serious a problem on Earth that even Venusians find life there unbearable?
D. that it is difficult, if not altogether impossible, to land a manned flying saucer on Earth
