Question

 The Inspector of Schools arrived yesterday morning,and he spent the whole day examining the classes. The headmaster had told us a few days 1        that he was coming. I think the headmaster was very 2        about it,for every day,he came to all the classes,3       the teachers over and over again what they must do and examined the boys himself to see 4        they were ready for the inspector. He told us in our class that we were all fools and would be sure to make him lose face before the inspector. All this made us very nervous;and when the 5        walked into our class we were all very afraid. I felt that all I 6        knew had gone clean out of my 7       . The inspector is a tall man. He wears glasses and always looks very strict. He 8       on examining the class in English,and I was asked to read. I felt very nervous,but I got 9        without any bad mistakes. Some of the other boys,10       ，did not do well and the inspector 11        serious,though he did not say 12        We got along with history and geography;but when it came to math,he set us some very 13        problems to solve which we failed to do; so he looked very angrily at our teacher. Our teacher was very 14        with us later;but I am sure we should have done better if we had not been so afraid. I think I should like to be 15        when I grow up,because everyone should be afraid of me.

Answer 1

督學員要來學校檢査教學工作，校長、老師和學生們都很害怕。由于同學們上課很緊張，不能正確的解題、答題,老師受到責備。"緊張"貫穿全文，完成短文時要抓住人物的心理活動。

1. A(督學員來到的) 幾天前，the headmaster就告訴了我們他要來。此空由前面的過去完成時決定。 

2. A the headmaster對此事很擔心，C有一定的干擾性，從后文他每天做的事來看,不是害怕。

3. D他一遍又一遍地告訴他們應該干些什么。

4. A whether用來連接賓語從句。

the headmaster 想知道孩子們是否作好了準備。

5. D根據(jù)上下文推出要來班上視察的人。

6. C ever表示"曾經(jīng)"。

7. D由于緊張推理出：我感到我所知道的都從我頭腦中丟干凈了。

8. C keep doing sth.不停地做某事。

9. B get through指通過閱讀檢測，其他選項都不能表現(xiàn)這一點。

10. B從did not go so well看，此空表示轉(zhuǎn)折。

11. A督學員看起來很嚴肅，作者在此是說，看到如此多學生回答不好，督學員的臉色很難看，因此用looked。

12. C much修飾不可數(shù)名詞，這里代所說的話。

13. B hard在此相當于difficult,選擇此空時要注意前面的轉(zhuǎn)折詞。

14. C因為督學looked very angrily at our teacher, 因此our teacher把氣都撒在了我們身上。

15. C看到督學員來到后老師學生們的緊張表現(xiàn),"我決定長大后要當督學員。"
