完形填空 (10分)

Grandma was busy cooking in the kitchen and Sera was always to be here for dinner.

There were many photographs of past and present  1  members and many other old things on her grandma’s table. Among them, she especially loved the large clay pot (陶壶). It was beautiful, painted in many colours.

“May I hold it?” asked Sera.

“Yes, but please be  2 . It is very old.” Grandma picked up the pot with gentle hands, gave it to Sera, and then went into the kitchen.

Sera decided to sit on the sofa. The sofa was a few feet  3  her. She went backward.  4  a toy truck was there. The truck rolled (滚动) away when Sera stepped on it. She fell back onto the sofa. The clay pot  5  out of her hands and up into the air! It landed on the floor.

Sera could hear the clay crack (裂痕). “No, no!” she cried. She heard grandma’s footsteps coming toward her. How could she face her grandma now?

“It’s not so  6 , Sera,” Grandma said. “Come on. You can repair the pot.”

“Let me tell you a story about that pot.”

Grandma pointed to another crack in the pot. Sera had never  7  it before. “My grandma made this crack when she was about your age,” said grandma. “She was carrying it back to the village  8  it fell onto the road. It had been full of  9 , so she got all wet!” She pointed to another crack. “This crack came when I dropped the pot on a big boat that brought  10  here from Canada,” said grandma smiling. Sera laughed and held up the pot. She could see now how each crack had become part of the colourful design--and part of her family’s story.

【解析】

试题分析：本文讲述了女孩赛若不小心将奶奶的旧陶壶打坏了，奶奶对她进行了安慰，并讲述了陶壶上裂痕的来历。

1.根据题干，本句的意思是“在奶奶的桌子上有许多过去和现在的家庭成员的照片和其他古老的东西。”所以本题选B。

2.通过Grandma picked up the pot with gentle hands中奶奶的动作可知，她是让赛若小心一点。故应该用careful。所以本题选C。

3.根据She went backward“她向后退”可知，沙发应该是在她的后面，故用behind。所以本题选A。

4.通过The truck rolled (滚动) away when Sera stepped on it可知，赛若很不幸踩在玩具车上。故用luckily。所以本题选C。

5.根据题干，本句的意思是“陶壶飞出她的手，到了空中。”故用fly的过去式flew。Pick是“捡起”，throw是“扔”，drop是“掉下”。所以本题选D。

6.根据Come on. You can repair the pot可知，她奶奶是在安慰她，故说“还不坏，赛若”。故用bad。所以本题选A。

7.根据前面一句Grandma pointed to another crack in the pot可知，本句的意思应该是“她以前从没注意过它。”所以本题选D。

8.根据题干，本句的意思是“当她将它掉到路上的时候，她正带它回村。”“当……时候”是when。所以本题选A。

9.根据 so she got all wet!可知，陶壶中应该是盛满水。“水”是water。所以本题选B。

10.根据brought可知，后面应该跟宾格，故用us。Bring us here是“带我们到这里”。所以本题选C。
