课后能力测评(二)
Ⅰ.1.解析：选D。分析句子结构可知，空格后的部分是地点状语从句。
2.解析：选C。超市里架子上放的自然是“货物”了。
3.解析：选B。从下文得知，他们准备偷东西，所以穿“长”大衣来做掩护。四个选项中只有long与后面提到的toobig相符。
4.解析：选A。大衣长而大，穿在小孩子身上自然就觉得古怪。young,nervous,excited与strange之间没有逻辑上的因果关系。
5.解析：选C。由后文可知，是做贼的，所以提醒另一人要“当心”。
6.解析：选D。共两个小孩，故另一个用theother。
7.解析：选B。开头已暗示Kate是来买米的。
8.解析：选D。it指前面听到的声音，这种声音“听起来”像……。
9.解析：选A。货物之间有空隙，Kate正好可以看过去。
10.解析：选A。按常理小孩应把选中的东西放进购物篮中，但他们没有，故用insteadof。
11.解析：选B。it指前面已提到过的box。
12.解析：选D。could此处表示可能性。
13.解析：选B。由文意可知，第9空前的动作再次重复了一遍。
14.解析：选C。由文意可知，这时放入袋中的显然不是前面提到过的box，而是“其他”什么东西。
15.解析：选C。由文意可知，她看着他们，说明他们就在她面前。
16.解析：选A。由文意可知，购物篮中的物品两个小孩是准备付款的。
17.解析：选D。付款的东西自然是放在购物篮中的。
18.解析：选C。大衣的纽扣扣得整整齐齐，因为里面藏有东西，此处button是动词。
19.解析：选B。由even所表示的语气可以推知。
20.解析：选A。句意为：他们要离开时，结账的人甚至在向他们微笑。leave离开，符合语境。
6.解析：选D。细节理解题。根据文章第一段，查尔斯王子改变生活方式的途径是：乘班机和火车，不再乘污染严重的喷气式飞机和直升机。
7.解析：选A。推理判断题。从文章第二段，查尔斯王子对商界一连串的发问中可以看出他的不满。
8.解析：选C。细节理解题。由第五段“DuchyOriginals...istakingstepstoquantifyhowmuchcarbondioxideandothergreenhousegasisemitted...”其中quantify作动词用，意为“量化”，同C项的figureout(计算出)意思接近，因此C项正确。
9.解析：选B。词义理解题。根据语境判断，此处短语指的是我们对环境的破坏，查尔斯王子形象地把它比喻成我们“对地球的最大欠账”。
10.解析：选A。标题归纳题。文章介绍英国的查尔斯王子准备为环保事业身体力行，改变自己
的生活方式，以减少温室气体的排放，因此A项最能体现文章的中心。B项是“亡羊补牢，为时未晚”的意思，文中有一定的信息，但不是全文的中心;C项仅仅体现出“关心”，而没有体现行动;D项指的是整个王室，而没有紧扣查尔斯王子的行为。
Ⅲ.1.HowtoLessen/ReduceTestAnxiety或Steps/WaystoLessen/ReduceTestAnxiety或TipsonLessening/ReducingTestAnxiety
2.Thesethoughtscanmakeanxietyworseandmakeitharderforyoutodowellonthetest.
