Question

One day, a boy found the cocoon(繭) of a butterfly and brought it home. A few days later, the boy saw a small    in the cocoon. He sat and watched for several hours as a butterfly struggled to make    body through that little hole. Suddenly it stopped. So the boy  to help the butterfly, thinking the butterfly might be     .He took a pair of scissors and cut the hole  .The butterfly came out of the cocoon but it   a little different. It had a weak body and small, thin     . The butterfly didn’t start to fly. In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling(爬行) around with a weak body and thin wings. It was never able to fly.
The boy acted with       but he didn’t understand why it could be like this. When a butterfly crawls out of the cocoon, it must struggle. The hard work of      out of the cocoon makes the fluid(液體) from the butterfly’s body into its wings. It helps the butterfly be      to fly. If the butterfly never has to squeeze(擠壓) itself out of the cocoon, its wings will never get the fluid and it can never fly.
    struggles are what we need in our lives. If we lived our lives without any problems, we would never learn or grow. We would not be       we could have been and we would never fly.
In our lives, pain and suffering is the key to all windows, and sometimes even        growth, without it , there's no way of life. We can't avoid       or problems. So, next time you are    a problem or difficulty, remember the butterfly. Struggle a little—then fly!

試題分析：短文大意：本文通過一只蝴蝶遇到困難時少掙扎了一點，而是通過小男孩的幫助從繭里出來的故事。告訴我們一個道理：當我們遇到問題或困難時，多掙扎一下，就能起飛。
小題1:靠查名詞及語境理解。hole 洞；worm 蟲；tall 高的； snake蛇。根據上下文意思，句意：那小男孩發現繭子上有一個小洞。以及第一段的最后一行“through that little hole”。故選A。
小題2:考查代詞及語境理解。It它；it’s =" it" is它是；itself它自己；its它的。句意：讓它的身體通過那個小洞。在這里要修飾“body”，用形容詞性物主代詞。故選D。
小題3:考查動詞及語境理解。decided 決定； asked 問；showed給…看；ordered命令。句意：它停止了，因此小男孩決定幫助它。根據后一句：他拿出剪刀剪開洞。故選A
小題4:考查形容詞及語境理解。afraid 害怕的；interested感興趣的；surprised驚訝的；grateful感激的。句意：小男孩決定幫助它，他認為蝴蝶會感激他。故選D。
小題5:考查形容詞及語境理解。slimmer 較苗條的；bigger較大的；shorter較短的，較矮的；smaller較小的。因為一開始那洞太小，蝴蝶才半天沒爬出來，所以小男孩用剪刀把洞剪大來B
小題6:考查動詞及語境理解。touched 觸摸；sounded聽；looked 看；smelt嗅，聞。句意：蝴蝶出來了，它看起來有點不同。“It had a weak body and small, thin”都是用眼睛看出來的。故選C。
小題7:考查名詞及語境理解。wings 翅膀； feet腳； eyes眼睛； head腦袋。根據后一句“a weak body and thin wings”，前后照應。故選A。
小題8:考查名詞及語境理解。Success成功；excitement興奮；kindness善良； humour幽默。句意：雖然小男孩不理解為何會這樣，但他還是用好心行動。故選C。
小題9:考查動詞及語境理解。work of中“of”是介詞，介詞后加動名詞。故選B。
小題10:考查形容詞及語境理解。ready 準備好的； quiet 安靜的；glad 高興的；used用過的。根據上下文意思：努力地離開繭子讓蝴蝶身體的液體進入他的翅膀。它幫助蝴蝶準備飛行。be ready to “準備”，故選A。
小題11:考查副詞及語境理解。Somewhere 某地；Something某事，某物； some time 表示"一些時間"或“一段時間”，可以用作名詞或副詞短語。sometimes用作副詞，表示“有的時候”，可以把它放在句首，句尾或句中。句意：有的時候奮斗/掙扎是我們生活中必須的。故選D。
小題12:考查形容詞及語境理解。Helpful有幫助的； weak 虛弱的； strong 強壯的；creative 有創造力的。根據句意：我們將沒有原本有的強大，我們將永遠不會飛。上下文：如果我們掙扎了，我們就會有原本的能力，沒有掙扎，反倒落后了。故選C。
小題13:考查動詞及語境理解。repeat“重復”， recommend“介紹，推薦”， require“要求”， represent“象征，代表”。句意：疼痛和苦難是所有窗戶的鑰匙，有時，甚至代表著成長。沒有它，生活沒有路。故選D。
