10、ering”(一直想知道)符合句意。2.B考查形容詞辨析。還想得到的更多，所以不滿足，“Never satisfy”(從不滿足)符合句意。3.C考查動(dòng)詞辨析。由常識(shí)可知，乞丐最重要的是要解決吃和穿的問(wèn)題。eat(吃)對(duì)應(yīng)下面提到的“穿”符合情景，learn“學(xué)習(xí)”，watch“看、觀察”，play“游戲”，均不符合情景。4.A考查名詞辨析。根據(jù)第一段，乞丐在沿街乞討，所以財(cái)富女神降落到大街上才能看到乞丐。street(街道)符合文意。bridge“橋”，yard“院子”，forest“森林”，均不符合文意。5.C考查動(dòng)詞辨析。根據(jù)下文，打開(kāi)你的錢(qián)包，我要給你一些金子，可知財(cái)富女神在幫助乞丐。所

11、以選help意為：“幫助”。praise“表?yè)P(yáng)”，forgive“原諒”， comfort“安慰”，均不符合情景。6.D考查名詞辨析。根據(jù)第三段中“All that falls into the wallet will be pure gold”(所有進(jìn)入你錢(qián)包的都是純金)可知乞丐打開(kāi)的是一個(gè)錢(qián)包，所以選 wallet，“錢(qián)包”。7.D考查名詞辨析。只有在這種條件下，我才會(huì)去做?！癆ll that falls into the wallet will be pure gold; but every piece falling upon the 8 shall become dust”代指上文提

12、到的這種條件。condition“條件、狀況”符合句意。8.C考查名詞辨析。語(yǔ)境為：每一枚金幣掉到地上都會(huì)變成塵土，ground(地面)符合情景。9.C考查動(dòng)詞短語(yǔ)辨析。根據(jù)下文財(cái)富女神告誡乞丐不要裝的太重，提醒乞丐注意、當(dāng)心。所以選look out。look after照顧，look up仰視、向上看，look down俯視。10.C考查形容詞辨析。結(jié)合上題，財(cái)富女神提醒乞丐當(dāng)心，下文又提醒乞丐“so dont load it too heavily,”最后一段中告訴我們，錢(qián)包壞了，由此可以看出，這是一個(gè)舊錢(qián)包，所以選worn，意思是：“用舊的”。11.B考查動(dòng)詞辨析， could hard

13、ly wait to do意為：“迫不及待的干某事”。句意：激動(dòng)的乞丐早已迫不及待的想拿到金子。12A.考查名詞。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段中提到“golden stream”可知答案。13.C考查動(dòng)詞辨析。通過(guò)乞丐告訴財(cái)富女神錢(qián)包現(xiàn)在還很結(jié)實(shí)，可知不要為錢(qián)包擔(dān)心。Never fear“不要害怕”。14.D 考查動(dòng)詞。句意為：錢(qián)包裝了如此多的金幣，乞丐的手開(kāi)始發(fā)抖。shake(發(fā)抖)符合情景。spread“伸展”，close“關(guān)閉”，loose“放松”，均不符合情景。15.A考查動(dòng)詞。乞丐希望金子源源不斷的流出，四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中只有pour(流出)能形象的描繪出乞丐的貪婪。16.B考查動(dòng)詞辨析。對(duì)應(yīng)前文的“Ju

14、st a little more,”可知，這里表達(dá)的意思是：貪婪的乞丐想再往錢(qián)包中多裝一兩把金子。add(添加)符合句意。take拿、攜帶”，lend“借出” ，send“送給”，均不符合情景。最后一段的第一句話也有原詞復(fù)現(xiàn)：One more piece was added and the wallet split。17.B考查動(dòng)詞辨析。錢(qián)包已經(jīng)裝滿了，而且是一個(gè)舊錢(qián)包，繼續(xù)裝可能會(huì)裂開(kāi)。所以選burst“破裂”。最后一句話中的“split”為同義詞復(fù)現(xiàn)。18.D考查動(dòng)詞辨析。貪婪的乞丐認(rèn)為錢(qián)包還能多裝一點(diǎn)。hold“保存”符合語(yǔ)境。19.C考查名詞辨析。treasure(財(cái)寶)這里代指金幣。

15、錢(qián)包破裂后金幣自然會(huì)掉到地上。present“禮物”， food“食物”，metal“金屬”，均不符合句意。20.A考查不定代詞辨析。句意：衣衫襤褸的乞丐除了破裂的錢(qián)包一無(wú)所有。nothing“什么也沒(méi)有”。 閱讀理解Mental and health experts believe personality plays an important part in how we experience stress.
