【解析】

文章大意：這篇文章講述的是兩只老鼠的故事，通過農(nóng)村的老鼠和城里的老鼠的生活觀念的對比，告訴人們一個道理：與其富有但生活不平穩(wěn)安逸倒不如貧窮但生活快樂。

【1】句意：從前有兩只老鼠，他們是親密的朋友。

similar相似的；close親密的、緊密的；quiet安靜的、寂靜的。根據(jù)下文鄉(xiāng)下老鼠要求城里老鼠去他的家里，可知他們兩個是很親密的朋友，故答案選B。

【2】句意：一只老鼠住在鄉(xiāng)下，另一只住在城里。

other其它的，后接名詞，不表示特指；another再一個、另一個；the other另一個，后接名詞，通常用于one……theother……強(qiáng)調(diào)兩者中的一個……。根據(jù)上文Once there were two mice……. One mouse lived in the countryside,可知此處表示，另一只老鼠生活在城市里，兩者中的另一個用the other，故答案選C。

【3】句意：一天，鄉(xiāng)下老鼠遇到城里老鼠，他邀請說:“你一定要到我鄉(xiāng)下的家來看我。”

city城市；country鄉(xiāng)下；stone石頭。根據(jù)上文One day the Country mouse met the City mouse and he invited, 可知是鄉(xiāng)下老鼠邀請城里的老鼠到他鄉(xiāng)下的家去做客，故答案選B。

【4】句意：然而，拜訪以后，城里的老鼠說：“食物不好吃，你的房子也不暖和……。”

But但是，連詞，表示轉(zhuǎn)折；And和、又、并且，連詞，表示并列；However然而，副詞，表示轉(zhuǎn)折。聯(lián)系上文語境，結(jié)合after the visit, the City mouse said, “The food is not good, and your house is not warm…….”，可知上下文之間表示的是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，而且設(shè)空處位于句首，后面用逗號與句子的其它部分隔開，所以這里應(yīng)用副詞However，故答案選C。

【5】句意：你應(yīng)該像我一樣來城里住。

about關(guān)于；like像；for為了。根據(jù)下文You can live in a nice stone house. You can have move delicious food to eat. 你可以住在漂亮的石頭房子里。你可以吃到更多美味的食物。結(jié)合You should come and live in the city__5__ me.及選項，可知句意為：你應(yīng)該像我一樣來城里住。故答案選B。

【6】句意：我期待著你到我城里的家來看我。

expect期待、期望；hope希望；decide決定。聯(lián)系上下文語境，結(jié)合I __6__ you to come and see me at my house in the city.可知句意為：我期待著你到我城里的家來看我。expect sb.to do sth.期待某人做某事；而hope后面可以接不定式或that從句，但不能接“賓語+不定式”；故答案選A。

【7】句意：但是當(dāng)他們開始去吃的時候。

as long as只要、如果；the moment時刻、瞬間；because因為。根據(jù)上文Tasty food was set ready for them to eat. 美味的食物為他們準(zhǔn)備好了。由轉(zhuǎn)折詞but，可知是當(dāng)他們開始去吃的那一刻，故答案選B。

【8】句意：他們聽到一聲巨響。

noise噪聲、噪音；joke玩笑；discussion談?wù)�、議論。根據(jù)下文The City mouse shouted loudly, “Run! Run! The cat is coming!” 城里老鼠大聲喊道：“快跑!快跑!貓來了!”可知應(yīng)是聽到一聲巨響，故答案選A。

【9】句意：他們倆飛快地跑開，藏在一個洞里。

Either兩者中的任何一個；Neither兩者都不；Both兩者都。聯(lián)系上下文語境，可知是他們兩個都飛快地跑開，藏在一個洞里，表示兩者都用both，故答案選C。

【10】句意：因為貧窮而快樂要比富有而害怕好得多。

sad傷心的；afraid害怕的；careful仔細(xì)的。根據(jù)because it is nicer to be poor and happy than to be rich and __10__.此處與前面的happy所對應(yīng)，再聯(lián)系上文語境，貓一來嚇得他們兩個都躲了起來，可知應(yīng)是擔(dān)心、害怕，故答案選B。

解答完形填空首先要通讀全文，掌握大意。結(jié)合選項初步弄清短文寫了些什么內(nèi)容。在理解全文意思的基礎(chǔ)上，結(jié)合文章內(nèi)容對空缺句子作合乎邏輯的推理。必須弄清空缺詞句的確切含義，空缺詞句與其前后句的意義銜接必須自然、合理，最后根據(jù)語境，結(jié)合選項，選出正確答案。如，第1小題，根據(jù)下文鄉(xiāng)下老鼠要求城里老鼠去他的家里，可知他們兩個是很親密的朋友，故答案選B。第8小題，根據(jù)下文The City mouse shouted loudly, “Run! Run! The cat is coming!”可知應(yīng)是聽到一聲巨響，城里的老鼠害怕，所以才會大喊，故答案選A。
