试题分析：本文介绍了蚂蚁的四大人生哲理。一，决不放弃；二，向前看；三，保持乐观；四，做你所能做的一切。

1.What a great philosophy to have- the ant philosophy: never give up，蚂蚁的伟大的哲学理念就是决不放弃……，故选A。

2.2】考查名词辨析。A蚂蚁；B战争；C方式；D洞穴。前文提到蚂蚁绝对不会放弃，故如果他们去某个地方，而你试图去阻止的话，他们会寻找另一个方法或者通路。故选C。

3.3】考查名词辨析。A计划；B态度；C政策；D观点。由You can’t be so na?ve as to think summer will last forever.你不能很自然地就认为夏天会永远持续，以及蚂蚁人生哲理的第二条仔考虑夏天和冬天，可知，这是一个很重要的态度。故选B。

4.4】考查名词辨析。A稻草；B水果；C衣服；D食物。所以蚂蚁们在夏天中期的时候就一直在收集他们冬天的食物。故选D。

5.5】考查动词辨析。A警告；B享受；C提醒；D教导。在冬天，他们提醒自己，冬天不会持续很长时间，我们很快就能从这里出去。用warn的话语气太过强烈，表达较主观，故选C。

6.6】考查动词辨析。A提供；B等待；C期盼；D管理。从前文知，他们提醒自己，冬天不会持续很长时间，我们很快就能从这里出去。所以他们实际上是迫不及待想要出去。can’t wait to迫不及待做……，故选B。

7.7】考查副词辨析。A最近地；B尽可能地；C大地；D通常地、普遍地。上文问，在夏天蚂蚁会为冬天准备多少呢？文章最后一段也提到do all you can.尽你可能地去做，故可知蚂蚁所实行的就是竭尽所能去做，故选B。

8.8】考查形容词辨析。A乐观的；B积极的、活跃的；C体贴的、考虑周到的；D消极的。根据前文“在冬天，他们提醒自己，冬天不会持续很长时间，我们很快就能从这里出去。”可见蚂蚁们是在鼓励自己要保持积极乐观地心态地度过这段艰难时期。故选C。
