She traveled to California, and climbed up the tree. 〝If I sit in the tree, 〞she said, 〝the company can’t cut i t down.〞At the beginning, Julia planned to stay in the tree for two weeks. She lived in a small tree house and her friends helped her. They cooked food for her every day. She talked to her family and news reporters by phone. She stayed in the tree day and night.The company tried to stop her. They used a helicopter(直升机) to stay near her tree house for a long time. The helicopter was very noisy, and it made a lot of wind. Julia didn’t like it, but she stayed in the tree.In the end, she was successful. The company agreed not to cut down the old tree.

Rabits need fresh vegetables and a warm place to live in. It is even not easy to keep a hamster. What would you feed a hamster? How about snakes?

It’s really exciting, but it also means more animals to look after.Students take turns to look after the class pets. Every week the pets have new 〝mum and dad〞to look after them. You may want to know what happens to the class pets during school holidays.

day，可以判断句子的时态是一般现在时，and前后的成分应该是一致的，在这里连接两个相同的成分，主语是Mike，是个第三人称单数，所以谓语动词应该用第三人称单数形式．故选C．Mike每天放学后做作业，然后去踢足球．本题考查动词的第三人称单数形式，解决此类问题的关键是掌握动词第三人称单数形式的变化规律，在不同的语言环境中达到熟练的运用．5.【答案】C【解析】答案：C 考查动名词．根据题干考查固定短语spend time doing sth花费时间做某事，故选择C．我经常花费一小时做作业．考查动名词．准确的翻译句子与备选答案的动词用法区别，结合句意，选出符合句意的选项是做此类题的关键6.【答案】B【解析】答案：B．考查介词．句意"没有人喜欢在这个下雨的早晨出去．"．in表示在一个具体范围．on表示在具体某一天．at在具体的几点．for为了．结合语境"在下雨的早上"，具体某一天早上用介词on．答案是B．没有人喜欢在这个下雨的早晨出去．考查介词用法，这个知识点很广泛，有一些固定用法，需要日常积累，结合语境选择正确介词完成习题．7.【答案】B【解析】答案：B根据回答"About

is___very busy with his business，so he____has time for play．可知张先生总是很忙于他的生意，所以他很少有时间玩．故选A．--张先生总是忙于他的生意，所以他很少有时间玩．理解各个选项的含义，根据前后的内容联系，进行判断作答．9.【答案】C【解析】答案C强调句式，It is adj for sb to do sth，做某事怎么样．本句中it是形式主语，指代后面不定式内容做形式主语，不定式表示具体的将要进行的动作，故选C．小孩子在大街上玩是非常危险的．固定句式的考查也是英语考查的一个重点，熟记这些句式可以减少答题中的分析判断时间，所以平时加强句式记忆也是学好英语的关键环节．10.【答案】BC【解析】答案：C．此题涉及英语动词形容词的两种形式，一种是过去分词作形容词，一种是现在分词作形容词．一般来说，过去分词的形容词，多形容人或其他生物的情绪或感受，对于被修饰的对象来说，这种形容词体现了它的主观感受．如：I am interested in the book．现在分词的形容词，多形容客观事物体现在外的性质，其修饰的对象多不具有生命．如：I always remember the interesting story my teacher had told．关于此题，很显然，books是客观事物，描述客观事物的属性的，应用interesting；主语we are all 是人，形容人的主观感受，用interested，be interested in"对…感兴趣"是固定短语；所以正确答案是C．这些是有趣的书，我们都对他们感兴趣．此题主要考查英语动词形容词的两种形式即过去分词作形容词与现在分词作形容词之间的区别．掌握它们之间的差异能帮助快速答题．11.【答案】【小题1】C 【小题2】A 【小题3】C 【小题4】A 【小题5】B【小题6】B 【小题7】B 【小题8】D
