Don’t point _____ others with your hand. It’s not polite.

A. at B. to C. in D. for

A 【解析】句意：不要用你的手指指著別人，那是不禮貌的。本題考查point的固定搭配。point at，意為“指著…”；point to意為“指向”； point in意為“有意義、在…有作用”，根據(jù)句意可知此項不合題意，所以排除； point for無此用法，所以排除。point at習(xí)慣上表示指向離說話人較近的人或事物，意為“指著…”，at是介詞，著重與指的對象。point to多用來表...

—Who shouted outside the room just now?

—Bob ______.

A. is B. does C. do D. did

D 【解析】句意：——剛才誰在房間外面大聲喊叫？——鮑勃做的。根據(jù)句中的just now可知是問過去發(fā)生的事情，所以用一般過去時回答；在答語中避免再出現(xiàn)shout，要用did來代替；A、B、C選項均為一般現(xiàn)在時，不合題意，故答案選D。

When the man heard the news, he ____ to his house.

A. hurried going B. hurries going C. hurried to go D. hurries to go

C 【解析】句意：當那個人聽到這個消息時，他趕緊去了他家。根據(jù)句意，when引導(dǎo)的從句用一般過去時態(tài)，主句也應(yīng)用一般過去時態(tài)，所以排除B、D選項；hurry to do sth.表示急著趕去做某事，但是這件事情還沒有做；hurry doing sth.表示急著做某事，是正在做的事情。根據(jù)句意的理解，可知C選項符合題意，故答案選C。

There is a book on the ground. Please _____.

A. pick up them B. pick them up C. pick it up D. pick up it

C 【解析】句意：地上有一本書，請撿起它。pick up是動詞加副詞構(gòu)成的詞組，當賓語是代詞時要放在兩者的中間，排除A、D選項；前面的a book是名詞單數(shù)，所以這里用it來代替它，排除B選項；同時注意后一句的表達是祈使句形式，所以用動詞原形，故答案選C。

There was once a young mouse that lived in a hole in a wall. One day, the young mouse woke up from his sleep and looked out of the hole. As he looked out, a fantastic smell came to his nose. “Cheese!” the mouse said happily to himself. “I’ll go and get it now and have it for breakfast.”

But he sat still and waited quietly. This time he did not hear any noises of a cat. Instead he heard a very quiet “Woof”.

“It’s a dog!” he thought. “If the dog is there, the cat won’t be there. I expect the dog has chased the cat away, so I’m safe.” The mouse ran out of the hole and started eating the cheese. He did not see the cat. The cat caught him and ate him.

One day a farmer’s donkey fell into an unwanted well. The animal cried for hours as the farmer tried to find out what to do. Finally, he decided it just wasn’t worth saving because the animal was too old and the well needed to be covered up anyway.

He invited all his neighbors to come over and help him. They each held a shovel(鐵鏟) and began to shovel dirt(泥土) into the well. At first the donkey cried loudly when he realized what was happening. Then, a few shovel-fulls later, he quieted down completely. The farmer looked down into the well, and was greatly surprised by what he saw. With every shovel –full of dirt that hit his back, the donkey would shake it off and take a step up on the new layer of dirt.

As the farmer’s neighbors continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal, he would shake it off and take a step up. Pretty soon, to the great surprise of everyone, the donkey stepped up over the edge of the well and walked off fast.

Life is going to shovel dirt on you, all kinds of dirt. The good way of getting out of the well is to stop crying, and not to let the dirt bury(埋葬) you, but to shake it off and take a step up. Each one of our troubles is a stepping-stone. We can get out of the deepest(最深的) wells just by not stopping, never giving up! Shake it off and take a step up.
