解析

小题1:答案：A　根据2空后的“there wouldn"t be any birthday visitors”可知，Annie因为没有人为她过生日而感到有点孤独(lonely)。
误区警示：考生容易误选alone。做好此题的关键在于正确地理解lonely和alone的区别。lonely表示“孤独的，寂寞的”，带有浓重的感情色彩；alone意为“独自的，单独的”，侧重说明独自一人，强调的是客观事实。
小题2:答案：B　作者给Annie购买礼物，暗示着Annie的家境不是很富裕。finances表示“财务情况”。
小题3:答案：C　根据13空后的“The real fun was packing them to be sent.”可知，作者想给Annie寄(send)贺卡和礼物。
小题4:答案：D　Annie收到礼物自然会感到高兴，brighten表示“使快活起来”，符合语境。
小题5:答案：C　作者想给Annie寄生日礼物，必然需要她的学校地址，因此选address。
小题6:答案：A　下文讲述了作者给Annie准备礼物的过程，因此此处指作者有了一个主意(idea)。
小题7:答案：B　作者想(thought)也许需要再多一点庆祝生日时的欢乐氛围。
小题8:答案：C　作者买了一些气球、生日帽和其他的(other)新颖小巧而价廉的物品。
小题9:答案：C　11空前的“making the recording”表明，作者是用录音机(recorder)录下人们的歌声。
小题10:答案：B　12空后的“so it really sounded like we had a party going on”暗示着人们为她唱(sing)了生日快乐歌。
小题11:答案：D　其他人发现(found out) 我们在做什么时也加入进来。
小题12:答案：A　作者本来请了三个人唱歌，结果其他人发现了也跟着一起唱。add表示“添加，增加”。
小题13:答案：B　3空后的“a card and maybe a small gift”表明作者起初想买贺卡和礼物，因此选originally，表示“起初，原来”。
小题14:答案：C　此空后的“it was like opening a mini birthday party”暗示作者在精心布置(arranged) 一切。
小题15:答案：D　在把它们寄出去之前(before)的最后时刻作者又添加了一包纸杯蛋糕和一盒生日蜡烛。
小题16:答案：A　文章开头的“was away for her first semester at college”表明Annie在学校，因此选dormitory“寝室”。
小题17:答案：B　20空后的“it was the most fun birthday she would remember”表明Annie很高兴(happy)。
小题18:答案：C　作者很高兴Annie有一些朋友可以与她一起分享(share)这特别的一天。
小题19:答案：C　这是一个既容易又有趣的(fun)事情。fun意为“有趣的”；funny意为“使人发笑的，滑稽的”。
误区警示：考生容易误选funny。做好此题的关键在于正确地理解fun和funny的区别。fun除了作不可数名词外，还可以作形容词，意为“有趣的”，而funny意为“使人发笑的，滑稽的，奇异的”。
小题20:答案：D　Annie告诉(told) 作者这会是她能记住的最有趣的一个生日。
举一反三
It"s such a happy­looking library, painted yellow, decorated with palm­tree stickers and sheltered from the Florida sun by its own roof. About the size of a microwave oven, it"s pedestrian­friendly, too, waiting for book lovers next to a sidewalk in Palm Beach Country Estates, along the northern boundary of Palm Beach Gardens.
It"s a library built with love.
A year ago, shortly after Janey Henriksen saw a Brian Williams report about the Little Free Library organization, a Wisconsin­based nonprofit that aims to promote literacy and build a sense of community in a neighborhood by making books freely available, she announced to her family of four, “That"s what we"re going to do for our spring break！”
Son Austin, now a 10th­grader, didn"t see the point of building a library that resembles a mailbox. But Janey insisted, and husband Peter unwillingly got to work. The 51­year­old owner of a ship supply company modified a small wooden house that he"d built years earlier for daughter Abbie"s toy horses, and made a door of glass.
After adding the library"s final touches(装点), the family hung a signboard on the front, instructing users to “take a book, return a book，” and making the Henriksen library, now one of several hundred like it nationwide and among more than 2,500 in the world, the only Little Free Library in Palm Beach County.
They stocked it with 20 or so books they"d already read, a mix of science fiction, reference titles, novels and kids" favorites. “I told them, keep in mind that you might not see it again，” said Janey, a stay­at­home mom.
Since then, the collection keeps replenishing(补充) itself, thanks to ongoing donations from borrowers. The library now gets an average of five visits a day.
The project"s best pay­off, says Peter, are the thank­you notes left behind. “We had no idea in the beginning that it would be so popular.”
小题1:In what way is the library “pedestrian­friendly”？
A．It owns a yellow roof.
B．It stands near a sidewalk.
C．It protects book lovers from the sun.
D．It uses palm­tree stickers as decorations.
小题2:Janey got the idea to build a library from ________.
A．a visit to Brian Williams
B．a spring break with her family
C．a book sent by one of her neighbors
D．a report on a Wisconsin­based organization
小题3:The library was built ________.
A．by a ship supply company
B．on the basis of toy horses
C．like a mailbox
D．with glass
小题4:What can we infer from the signboard?
A．It was made by a user of the library.
B．It marked a final touch to the library.
C．It aimed at making the library last long.
D．It indicated the library was a family property.
小题5:The passage tells us that the users ________.
A．donate books to the library
B．get paid to collect books for the library
C．receive thank­you notes for using the library
D．visit the library over 5 times on average daily

All the people replied before ____， “We believe you！”
“I ask you again. Do you really believe me？”
“Yes, we believe you completely！”
Then, he said, “Well then, since you believe me, ____ my child with yours. Who will？”

After ten minutes, the acrobatic master said nothing, just put the child on his shoulders and walked past along the tightrope. Sure enough, this time he ____ once more.
