38、用镜子做湖面，小树枝做树木，然后我编了童话故事，并让我的玩具参与故事演出。原文说的是我自己编的故事，而不是妈妈帮我编的故事，所以题干表述是错误的。 9 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 根据原文 “Occasionally， he found a chopstick or fortune cookie my mother had hidden there ”，译文为：偶 尔，他会发现母亲藏在那里的筷子和幸运饼干。本题关键是理解 occasionally的词义，表示偶然、偶尔，所以题干表述是错误的。 10 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 根据原文 “In the middle of hanging

You will hear the recording only ONCE. 11 【听力原文】 He was less hurt than frightened. 11 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 根据原文 “He was less hurt than frightened ”，关键

41、在于理解固定搭配 less than。 less than是特殊的比较结构，意指 “少于、 与其说 倒不如 ”。本句的意思是：他与其说被伤着了，倒不如说吓着了。据此应选 b， b选项 scared是原句 frightened的同义词。 12 【听力原文】 I decided not to do the job, knowing it would take me several days to do it all by myself. 12 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 根据原文 “knowing it would take me several days to do it all by my

46、所以应选 d选项，他的演讲和他两年前所拥护的政策正相反。 17 【听力原文】 The snowstorm brought train travel to a standstill. 17 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 根据原文 “The snowstorm brought train travel to a standstill ”，译文为：暴风雪使得火车旅行停止了下来。本题关键是理解单词 standstill的词义，意思是：停止、停滞。正确选项为 d“因为严重的暴风雪，火车旅行停止了。 ” suspend意思是：悬空、停止。 a选项意为 “火车陷在了雪中。 ”， be stuck in，陷
