26、岁的孩子都要瘦小，所以“我低头看着这个小小的女孩子，下决心无论如何都要帮助她”。A、B和D三项显然都不符合语境。tiny very small。故选C。4考查动词词义辨析及语境理解。A.come来；B.fall落下；C.fit适合；D.tie系。我打算帮助这个女孩与大家融洽相处。文章标题已给出提示。fit in with“适合，与一致”。故选C。5考查名词词义辨析及语境理解。A.manner方式；B.pattern模式；C.choice选择；D.way方式。根据上文作者决定帮助小女孩与大家融洽相处，可知此处是指必须寻找一个办法/方法。manner做事或行为方式，多指行动的特殊方式或独特的方法；

27、pattern指模式、花样、图案等；choice指选择；way指方式、方法、手段等，可指一般的方法，有时也指个人的方法或方式。因为这里没有谈到什么方法，所以只能用笼统的方法way。故选D。6考查动词词义辨析及语境理解。A.read阅读；B.taken拿走；C.opened打开；D.put放置。Suzy把书打开到火车图片那里。open.to把翻到，to是介词，表达“到地方”。其他均不合适。故选C。7考查形容词词义辨析及语境理解。A.free自由的；B.perfect完美的；C.final最后的；D.extra额外的。她对火车图的复制，效果怎样要看文中第9题后的陈述，“Wow, its wonde

36、和语态。代词it与动词destroy之间为被动关系，发生在过去，故用一般过去时的被动语态。句意：其他人认为它在第二次世界大战中被纳粹军队摧毁。故填was destroyed。3考查名词性从句。宾语从句中，从句缺少主语，故用what引导。句意：事实上，没有人知道到底发生了什么。故填what。4考查副词。修饰动词thought，故用副词形式。句意：毫无疑问，人们对琥珀屋评价很高。故填highly。5考查非谓语动词。名词details与add之间为被动关系，故用过去分词作定语。句意：后来，凯瑟琳二世又给它添加了更多的细节。故填added。6考查形容词。此句为感叹句，Howadj.主语谓语！句意：想象

37、一下这是多么神奇！ 此处修饰物用动词ing形式，故填amazing。7考查代词。句中真正的主语为that many people have been looking for it since it got missing，用it作形式主语。句意：所以，自从它失踪以来，很多人一直在寻找它，这也就不足为奇了。故填it。8考查非谓语动词。介词by后接v.ing形式。句意：为了庆祝圣彼得堡建城300周年，俄国人和德国人决定通过研究这座琥珀屋的旧照片来重建它。故填studying。9考查冠词。new Amber Room为单数可数名词，这里表示“一个新的琥珀屋”，故用不定冠词a。句意：重建持续了24年，向世界展示了一个新的琥珀屋，吸引了世界各地数以百万计的游客。故填a。10考查名词复数。名词visitor为可数名词，根据millions of可知用复数形式。句意：重建持续了24年，向世界展示了一个新的琥珀屋，吸引了世界各地数以百万计的游客。故填visitors。
