【1】句意：他因他廣博的知識聞名。A. as作為；B. for因為；C. of的；D. with有，和。根據(jù)上文there lived a learned man in Greece．希臘有一個博學(xué)的人，又根據(jù)空格前面的詞語是was well-known，所以要用for。構(gòu)成固定短語be well-known for，意思是“因…而聞名”，故選B。

【2】句意：并且全國各地的很多人都去向他學(xué)習(xí)。A. ask B. get C. learn D. understand根據(jù)上文there lived a learned man in Greece．希臘有一個博學(xué)的人，又根據(jù)空格后面的things from him，因此可知要用learn，構(gòu)成固定短語learn…from…向某人學(xué)習(xí)某事。故選C。

【3】句意：那個偉人用全身心來教他的學(xué)生們，并且用極大的耐心回答他們的問題。A. bought 買 B. listened聽 C. heard 聽見 D. answered回答。根據(jù)下文their questions是名詞，結(jié)合句意，意思是回答他們的問題，由于主體時態(tài)使用了一般過去時，所以要用answered。故選D。

【4】句意：有一天，有一個學(xué)生問他。A. wrote寫信；B. asked詢問；C. said說；D. replied回復(fù)。根據(jù)下文My dear teacher，didn't you say you have many more questions than we do？因此可知這個學(xué)生問了他一個問題，所以要用ask，故選B。

【5】句意：老師微笑著畫了兩個圓圈——一個像盤子一樣大，另一個很小。A. anger生氣；B. word單詞；C. smile微笑；D. laugh大笑。空格前面是不定冠詞a，后加以輔音音素開頭的單詞，排除A；又根據(jù)上文with great patience．很有耐心，所以要用smile。故選C。

【6】句意：老師微笑著畫了兩個圓圈——一個像盤子一樣大，另一個很小。A. another三者及三者以上的另一個；B. others其他的人或事物；C. the other兩者中的另一個；D. some other一些其他的，修飾名詞。根據(jù)the teacher drew two circles-one is as big as a big plate, and ___6___ smaller.可知，老師畫了兩個圓圈，這里是兩者中的另一個，選C。

【7】句意：但是我不認為我知道你所知道的所有事情。A. So所以；B. Even甚至；C. But但是；D. Although雖然。根據(jù)前一句“Of course, I’ve learned much more. 我當(dāng)然知道比你多很多的知識”和“__7___ I don’t think I know all you know. 我不認為我知道你所知道的所有事情”兩者是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，故選C。

【8】句意：我的圈更大，所以它的線更長。A. smaller更��；B. small��；C. large大的；D. larger更大。根據(jù)文章so its line is longer.可知，線長的原因是圈更大，用比較級，故選D。

【9】句意：那就是為什么我比你有更多的問題。A. how怎么樣；B. what什么；C. which哪一個；D. why為什么。根據(jù)上文My dear teacher，didn't you say you have many more questions than we do？老師，為什么你的問題比我們多呢？根據(jù)下文I myself have more questions than you do．我自己比你們問題多的原因，這是一個句子．空格前面是that's，因此這里是以why引導(dǎo)的表語從句，表示為什么，所以要用why。故選D。

【10】句意：你學(xué)到的越多，問題就越多。A. answers回答；B. questions問題；C. problems難題；D. troubles麻煩。根據(jù)上文“Of course，I've learned much more．當(dāng)然了，我學(xué)的很多．”又根據(jù)“The more you learn，the more______you'll have．”因此可知這句話的意思是“你學(xué)的越多，你的問題就越多．”故選B。

the +比較級……, the+比較級表示越……越…… The more money you make, the more you spend. 錢賺越花越 The sooner the better. 越快越好。
