?、?1.D [句意為：當然，所有的貓都是那樣的。盡管如此，威爾還是非?？释丶遥灾劣跓釡I盈眶。behave表現(xiàn)，舉止，符合句意。]
2.C [still強調(diào)“一動不動”，符合句意。calm指“冷靜，不要太激動”;quiet安靜;silent不出聲，安靜。]
3.A [without doubt毫無疑問地，符合句意。]
4.C [what he saw在此處是主語從句，在句子中擔當主語;what引導名詞性從句，在此處意為“什么，所……的”。that，this不引導主語從句，which是在給定的范圍中選擇一個。]
5.B [find sb/oneselfdoing發(fā)現(xiàn)某人/自己正……，doing是現(xiàn)在分詞作賓補和賓語是邏輯上的主謂關(guān)系。]
6.A [考查固定搭配，in shape在形狀上。]
7.C [考查短語keep one’s eyes on注視，盯著看;注意。]
8.D [fix on注視，凝視，符合句意。take on雇傭，呈現(xiàn);have on穿著;carry on繼續(xù)。]

10.A [it作形式賓語，真正的賓語是后面的不定式to enter other world。其他三個答案都不能作形式賓語。]
?、?1.C [推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段最后一句話可知，他對古英語很熟悉，而不是精通非洲各地的語言，故選C項而排除D項。]
2.D [細節(jié)理解題。由第四段第一句話可知，Hobbit是Tolkien創(chuàng)造出來的一個名詞，用來指比正常人矮一半的人，即侏儒(dwarves)。]
3.B [推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段可知，出版商Stanley Unwin讓他的兒子看The Hobbit并評價。他的兒子看過后覺得很好，于是Unwin便出版了The Hobbit。因此B項正確，即Stanley Unwin的兒子在The Hobbit的出版過程中起的作用最大。]
4.A [主旨大意題。通讀全文可知，文章主要講述了《指環(huán)王》和它的作者的情況。]
