"Mom," answered Squeaky. "I have been out to see the world because I was bored with staying in our little dark h 62 . I went to the yard. There I saw a beautiful animal which looks a little like me."

"Yes, Mom," said Squeaky. "It really does. It has a grey coat that is like m 63 , but it is much bigger. It looked so kind."

61. Why 62. hole 63. mine 64. eat 65. another
66. might/must 67. only 68. hurt 69. and 70. safe

答案： 六、[文章大意]本文是一篇寓言故事。小老鼠 Squeaky 外出探险，误将危险的猫视为友善者，却把无害的公鸡当作威胁。鼠妈妈借此教育他，不能通过外表判断动物是否危险。
61.Why [解析]考查疑问词的用法。句意:你为什么颤抖成这样？根据前文“He was so scared that his tail shook.”和妈妈的问题“What has happened?”可知,妈妈在问他为什么”颤抖。故填 Why。
62.hole [解析]考查名词的用法。句意:我出去看世界了,因为我厌倦了待在我们又小又黑的洞里。根据上文中的“lived in a dark hole”可知,Squeaky 厌倦了待在黑暗的“洞”里。故填 hole。
63.mine [解析]考查代词的用法。句意:它有一身灰色的皮毛，就像我的(皮毛)一样，但是它更大。根据语境可知,此处指的是“我的(皮毛)”且空后没有名词,应用名词性物主代词 mine。故填 mine。
64.eat [解析]考查动词的用法。句意:她喜欢吃他们。根据常识可知,猫喜欢吃老鼠，所以此处表示喜欢“吃”他们。故填 eat。
65.another [解析]考查代词的用法。句意:因为就在那时我看到了另一只动物。根据语境可知,Squeaky 先看到了猫，然后看到了“另一只”动物，此处指的是所有(三者及三者以上)动物中的另一个，应用 another。故填 another。
66.might/must [解析]考查情态动词的用法。句意:那可能/肯定是她从未见过的某种可怕的动物。根据语境可知,鼠妈妈不知道小老鼠描述的是什么动物,所以她认为“那可能/一定是某种她从未见过的可怕动物”，此处表示推测。故填 might/must。
67.only [解析]考查副词的用法。句意:他头顶上有红色的东西，并且他只有两条腿。根据下文“That’s the rooster(公鸡).”可知,此处描述的是公鸡,公鸡只有两条腿。故填 only。
68.hurt [解析]考查动词的用法。句意:他不会伤害一只可怜的小老鼠。根据下文“How could I tell(辨别) which one would hurt me?”可知,此处指的是“伤害”。根据“would not”可知,此处应用动词原形。故填 hurt。hurt 的过去式、过去分词都为 hurt。hurt oneself 意为“伤害某人”。
69.and [解析]考查连词的用法。句意:他说:“但是，妈妈，猫看起来如此善良，公鸡看起来如此凶猛。”根据语境可知,此处表示并列关系。故填 and。
70.safe [解析]考查形容词的用法。句意:记住，Squeaky，和陌生的动物说话从来都不安全。根据“How could I tell(辨别) which one would hurt me?”和鼠妈妈的告诫可知,此处表示和陌生的动物说话从来都不“安全”。故填 safe。

阅读下面短文,根据要求完成下面各小题。
Not everyone loves earthworms(蚯蚓). Some people feel uncomfortable when they see them. Yet these small animals are very important. 73. In fact, we should thank earthworms for many of the delicious and healthy foods on our plates. They are good friends of the farmers.
Earthworms can be found in most places around the world. 74. They live their whole lives in soil. An earthworm has no eyes, ears, or nose. Instead, it senses the dark environment through the nerve cells (神经细胞) along its body. These nerve cells help the earthworm move through the soil. Most earthworms are generally between 10 and 30 centimeters long. However, if you traveled to Australia, you might see the world's longest earthworm—the Gippsland earthworm. It can grow up to 3 meters long.
Earthworms help farmers in several ways. As they move through the soil, they create tunnels(管状通道). Plants grow poorly if the soil is too dry and hard. The tunnels help air and water reach the underground parts of plants. This makes the soil wet and loose(疏松的). Earthworms also eat dead leaves and dead plants. Then they pass the waste(粪便) into the soil. Their waste is filled with nutrients (营养). This makes the soil rich.
The earthworms may be small, but they are very important. They help feed us and keep us healthy.
