先通读短文，了解大意：“我”父亲是英军的一位军官，“我”与妹妹随父亲一起在部队里。有一天傍晚，一只大猩猩来袭击我家，当时父亲为了不让“我”和妹妹不受惊吓，借故要我们上楼。之后，他因未来得及关上门而让大猩猩闯入了我家。再后，父亲上楼，大猩猩后面追，我闻知拿枪开门，并开枪打伤了大猩猩。最后父亲接过枪，开枪将大猩猩击毙。
1. A。类似的表达法有：one-eyed(独眼的)，three-legged(三条腿的)等(注：这是九十年代以来，高考英语完形填空题中唯一道纯语法题，从此以后这样的纯语法题再也没有在高考完形填空题中出现过)。
2. C。这里选 A,D 显然不行，选 B(night)与语境也不符,因为既然是“晚上”，父亲又怎么能通过窗子看到外面的大猩猩呢? 另外须注意的是下文(第8空之后)也出现了 evening 这样的暗示性的词。
3. B。这里若选 C,D 都显然不行。选 A(towards)的话，这是一个动态介词，表示“朝……方向”，也不行，而选 B 刚好符合语境：正由于父亲坐在窗子对面(opposite the window)，所以才能通过窗子看见外面的大猩猩。
4. D。“我”发现父亲的脸色变得苍白，这是由视觉得出的结果， 所以这里选 noticed 最合语境。
5. A。这里的 still 意为“一动不动”。
6. B。父亲发现大猩猩，脸色变得苍白，此时按理我要问问父亲出了什么事；但是由于妹妹有病(sick)，所以我坐着一动不动(still)，这显然是为了不“使妹妹受惊吓”，所以选 frighten 正合语境。
7. C。联系上面的语境:为了不让妹妹受惊吓，这时父亲虽然知道大猩猩来的危险，但仍用“平静的”(calm)的声音借故要我们上楼去。
8. D。因为这是直接引语,从语境上看此处应用一般将来时态(注：此题虽有其语境因素，但也有一定的语法特征。这类题在以后的高考完形填空题中很少出现)。
9. B。此句的下文是：父亲要我们上楼去，也就是说他要与这位“朋友”单独相处(alone with)。
10. C。这里的 obeyed 意为“照办”。这从下文显然可知。
11. A。联系下文，这显然是指听到“像门被冲开的声音(heard a sound like that of a door burst in)”，因为从常识上说，“门被冲开”不可能发出像 cry, voice, shout 等之类的声音。
12. D。因为上文说：“我”和妹妹上了楼，下文又说：父亲叫“我”开门。 这就说明现在父亲正在“上(up)”楼梯。
13. C。下文说：我从桌上拿起了手枪，这说明是“有危险”。
14. A。因为“我”和妹妹上楼后，把门关了起来， 所以现在父亲是叫我们把门 “打开(open)”。
15. C。此题 A, B 选项易排除。但为什么选 C 而不选 D 呢？当时的情景是：父亲在楼梯上，“我”从上往下看，通过父亲的肩膀，看到其后的是一只大猩猩。这里用 over 表示“我”与父亲有一段距离；若用 from，它表示的是“我”从父亲的肩膀那儿往下看(即“我”和父亲在一起，不合语境)。
16. B。这道题其实很简单，从某种角度上来说它主要考察考生是否细心。因为前文第一句就出现了in South Africa 这样的暗示。粗心的考生此处会选有可能 A(South America)。
17. D。若选 A(aiming at), C(shooting at)这显然不合情理，因为大猩猩怎么会能“瞄准”或“射击”？选 B(marching towards)与语境也不符。
18. C。大猩猩被我打了一枪，并从楼梯上退下去。从常识上看，此时大猩猩应该是发出一个“愤怒的”(angry)的声音。
19. A，20. D。指当时父亲从我手上接过还在(still) 冒烟的枪，又开了一枪；这一枪就击毙(killed)了大猩猩。
21. B。若选 C(driven), D(forced)，显然不合上文语境：父亲对孩子说“请你们上楼到自己的房间去好吗?”若选 A (taken) 也不对，因 take指自己亲自带去。选 B(sent)正合语境要求。
22. B，
23. C，
24. A。父亲之所以强作镇静把我们叫上楼去，一方面是为了使有病的妹妹不受惊吓，另一方面则是他以为他能够赶在大猩猩进屋之前(before)把门闩(lock)好。但是，父亲未来得及，因为大猩猩太快(quick)了。
25. D。这可以从文章中的暗示得知。

C. I sit in the front of the classroom. That way there are no distractions between me and the teacher. The further back you sit, the more kids there are in front of you who can distract you.
