【解析】

這篇短文講述的是Joe去了一個海邊小鎮(zhèn)度假，在住店的時候，因為誤解了店主的意思而鬧出了一個笑話。

【1】句意：Joe在度假，所以他決定在一個海邊小鎮(zhèn)上度過這個假期。

根據(jù)句意可知，空后的it代指holiday，結合首字母可知，這里表示“度過假期”，考查spend，意為“花費，度過”，是一個動詞。句中使用了句型decide to do sth.“決定去做某事”，這里應用動詞原形。故答案為spend。

【2】句意：他下了火車，離開了車站。

根據(jù)空后and left the station可知，先“下火車”，再“離開車站”，這里考查的是短語get off，意為“下車”。故答案為off。

【3】句意：幾分鐘之后，他進入了一個小旅館，問主人住一晚上要多少錢。

根據(jù)空后asking the owner how much it would cost him for one night.可知Joe是想要住店，故這里考查的是hotel�？涨坝�a修飾，用單數(shù)。故答案為hotel。

【4】句意：Joe傷心地說：“那超出了我的支付能力。”

根據(jù)Joe所說的話 “That's more than I can really pay”可知，15美元一個晚上對于他來說太貴了，他付不起，所以感到傷心，這里考查sadly，是一個副詞，修飾謂語動詞said。故答案為sadly。

【5】句意：Joe非常開心因為他在家總是自己鋪床。

根據(jù)兩句話之間的關系可知，空后解釋Joe感到開心的原因，因此這里考查because，是一個連詞，引導原因狀語從句。故答案為because。

【6】句意：他對Joe說：“這些是給你自己做床用的。”

根據(jù)上文The owner went into a room at the back, opened a cupboard and took out some tools such as a hammer, a saw, nails and pieces of wood.可知，店主給Joe這些東西，讓他自己做一個床。這里考查反身代詞yourself，意為“你自己”。故答案為yourself。

【7】句意：手里拿著工具，Joe知道他沒有理解店主說的“鋪床”的正確意思。

根據(jù)文意可知，Joe以為店主說的是“鋪床”；而店主說的是“做一個床”，所以他沒有理解店主的意思。這里考查meaning，是一個名詞，意為“意思”。故答案為meaning。

這是一篇記敘文，短文講述了Joe度假時發(fā)生的一件趣事。文章敘述清晰，內(nèi)容貼近學生們的日常生活，比較容易理解。題型是短文填空，要求根據(jù)文意和所給單詞的首字母，填寫適當?shù)膯卧~。做題時應先通讀短文，了解文意；然后根據(jù)語境提示和首字母兩個線索，填寫適當?shù)膯卧~。例如第2小題，根據(jù)空后and left the station可知，先“下火車”，再“離開車站”，這里考查的是短語get off，意為“下車”。故答案為off。再如第5小題，根據(jù)兩句話之間的關系可知，空后解釋Joe感到開心的原因，因此這里考查because，是一個連詞，引導原因狀語從句。故答案為because。
