【解析】

本文是一篇記敘文，主要講述了穿著破爛的男孩湯姆和王子愛德華以及粗魯的守衛(wèi)之間的故事。

【1】句意：他通過金色的大門看過去，希望能夠看一眼真正的王子。

look at看著；look through通過……看；look for尋找；look after照顧。根據句意，可知此處表示通過大門看過去，故選B。

【2】句意：湯姆衣衫襤褸，正慢慢地從他們身邊走過，突然看見一個衣冠楚楚的男孩，后面跟著幾個仆人。

suddenly突然；gently溫和地；fiercely猛烈地；heavily重重地。此處修飾其后動詞短語caught sight of，根據句意，可知意為突然，故選A。

【3】句意：湯姆很興奮。

frightened害怕的；upset沮喪的；worried擔憂的；excited興奮的。根據后文“He wanted to get close to the prince and have a good look at him”，可知他看見了王子很興奮，故選D。

【4】句意：他讓守衛(wèi)打開大門，把湯姆帶進了宮殿里他的房間。

repair修理；paint畫；open打開；close關上。根據后文“took Tom to his room in the palace”，王子把他帶進去了，可知此處是開門，故選C。

【5】句意：他很快意識到這是之前對湯姆十分粗魯的守衛(wèi)造成的。

decided決定；realized意識到；discussed討論；dreamed做夢。根據句意，可知此處表示“意識到”，故選B。

【6】句意：然而，這個守衛(wèi)沒有認出穿著湯姆舊衣服的王子。

Besides除此之外；So所以；However然而；Therefore因此。根據句意，可知此處表讓步、轉折之意，應該用however，故選C。
