答案:1.A;2.C;3.B;4.B;5.D;6.C;7.D;8.B;9.A;10.D;11.C;12.B;13.D;14.A;15.A;16.C;17.B;18.A;19.C;20.D;
解析:

(1)

根據(jù)下文的故事可知,小河是烏龜?shù)摹凹摇薄?/P>

(2)

would表示過去習慣性動作,這里指孔雀每天喝完水就展開美麗的羽毛跳舞。

(3)

根據(jù)常識可知孔雀跳舞時是展開羽毛的,此處意為“他向朋友展示他美麗的羽毛”。

(4)

根據(jù)下文一個獵人將孔雀抓住,所以是倒霉的一天。

(5)

根據(jù)后面的“market”可知,獵人要將孔雀帶走。

(6)

對于弱小的孔雀來說應該是祈求獵人,不可能命令獵人。

(7)

根據(jù)上下文可知,as在句中表示原因。

(8)

根據(jù)下文took him to the tortoise可知,獵人答應了孔雀見烏龜最后一面的要求。

(9)

根據(jù)該段的最后will you let my friend go可找到答案。let someone go為固定短語“放過某人”。

(10)

根據(jù)空格后的that was his means of livelihood可知是獵人說的話,所以用saying。

(11)

根據(jù)獵人的回答可知,獵人同意烏龜提出的交換條件,所以用certainly,意思為“當然、一定”。

(12)

根據(jù)選項動詞結合烏龜?shù)膭幼骺芍胐ive,表示“潛入水中”。

(13)

根據(jù)后句he freed the peacock immediately可知,烏龜給獵人的珍珠大大出乎他的期望,所以用beyond。

(14)

根據(jù)下文可知獵人又回到烏龜?shù)淖√帯?/P>

(15)

根據(jù)下文獵人所說的話可知,他認為上次得到的太少,不夠作為放過孔雀的酬勞,所以答案為paid。

(16)

根據(jù)后句unless a pearl which is similar to that one was offered to him, he would catch the peacock again可知獵人在威脅。

(17)

根據(jù)與himself的搭配只有用hide,而且符合語境。

(18)

根據(jù)文章的結尾可知烏龜沒有答應獵人的要求,可推測烏龜對獵人的貪婪不滿。

(19)

insist on表示“堅持做某事”,go on, move on, keep on都表示“繼續(xù)做某事”,根據(jù)獵人的威脅應為堅持自己的要求。

(20)

  根據(jù)烏龜將原先的珍珠要回,可知是為了讓獵人相信他會去找一個和原來的一模一樣的珍珠。exact match意思為“一模一樣,完全吻合”。

  本文通過一則寓言故事告訴大家:人萬萬不可貪心。
