1. A 根據(jù)下文螞蟻的回答 “I am collecting foods for the winter season. ”可知,螞蟻在收集過冬的食物。因此選 A.com意為“谷物”。

2. C通讀短文可知,這只蝗蟲很懶惰,所以此處用lazy ,選C.

3. B為冬季準(zhǔn)備食物。介詞for表目的,“為了……”,因此選B.

   at sb. ’s request/at the request of sb.意思是“應(yīng)某人的請(qǐng)求”,是固定詞組。

著眼全文,解決殘敵

   借助已經(jīng)補(bǔ)全的空格,我們對(duì)全文有了更清楚的 理解,可以集中解決所遺留的少數(shù)疑難問題。例如第 9小題,根據(jù)上文蝗蟲嘲笑螞蟻,我們可能誤選A. 但 是根據(jù)下文He went into the ant's house可確定選D,因此本題需要著眼全文,整合信息,才能確定答案。

   4. Have a picture in your head of something that makes you calm,relaxed,and happy. It might be your bedroom,or the ocean,or somewhere you once hiked in the mountains.

   5. Say things to yourself that will boost your confidence. Tell yourself this test can't scare you and you’re totally prepared to ace it. Push negative thoughts out of your head. If you think confident,you’ll be more confident.
