Answer

1.B  依据下面提及的让嫦娥呆在宫殿里可知，这里应该是国王娶了嫦娥，所以用married。

2.D  既然上文是让嫦娥呆在宫殿里，那自然是想何时见就何时见，所以选whenever。已经提及了宫殿，所以wherever不符合。

3.A  上文说的是嫦娥不喜欢国王丑陋的外表，所以应该是很少与他说话。从来不与国王说话不符合实际。

4.C  这里的would表示倾向性，说的是每次国王来，都会给嫦娥带些珠宝及小礼物之类的东西。Should“应该”；might“可能”；could“能够”。

5.D  上文提及嫦娥不喜欢国王，很少与国王说话，国王应该也知道，所以每次来总是带些东西来，理当是为了取悦嫦娥。Please“取悦”；satisfy “使满意”；guarantee“保证”；show“展示”。只有D最符合语境。

6.A  人们认为月亮发光是因为有神仙住在里面，让月亮发光的。light“亮”；apear“出现”；hide“躲藏”；shine“发光”。

7.B  国王这次带来的是一些药丸。通过上文第一段的叙述可知，每次国王来看嫦娥，都会带来东西，用brought。

8.C  国王说药是从宫殿的道士那里弄来的，如果吃了这些药，就会长生不老。这是国王说的话，而且可以看出国王说话时很兴奋，所以用exclaimed。anwered及responded都是问了之后说的话，回答：forecasted“预测”。

9.B  下文的after taking the pill可知这里是pill。

10.D  下文嫦娥答应了吃药，而且打算将药丸全部吃掉，这是国王没有料到的，所以用转折意义的however。therefore表因果；besides表递进；moreover而且。

11.C  既然是长生不老的药物，如果嫦娥都吃掉了，国王自然会很生气，就会将嫦娥“打入冷宫”，也就是离开她，所以用leave。Forgive“原谅”；give up“放弃”；give away“泄露，赠送”。

12.D  这里说的是嫦娥打定主意后对国王说话，下文的“the king was  48  that the girl talked to him”中的talked to 给出了暗示。

13.A  文章第一段提及嫦娥很少跟国王说话，这一次跟国王说话了，国王的感觉理当是惊讶，所以选A。confused“迷惑不解的”；angry“生气的”；scared“害怕的”。

14.D  国王让嫦娥吃药，嫦娥答应了，自然此时是国王将药丸交给嫦娥，用handed。Donated“捐献”；returned“归还”；awarded“授予”。

15.C  嫦娥什么也没说，就吃下了全部的药丸，所以用anything, not anything在些相当于nothing。

16.A  下文”she could fly for the sake of the  52  of the pills”给也了暗示是飞起来了。

17.C  这里说的是嫦娥之所以能飞，是因为服了国王给她的药丸，所以用intake。Quality“质量”；variety“种类”；instructions“暗示”。

18.B  这里说的是只以眼睁睁地看着嫦娥飞向月亮，而且下文还用了disappear，所以应该是飞向月亮，而非飞进月亮。

19.D  人们相信月亮里面有个漂亮的女孩子，而且下文应该的“Chinese believe that there wre people lived in the moon”中的believed也给出了暗示。Estimated“估计”；guessed“猜想”；argued“坚持认为”。

20.C  老人们认为小兔子是嫦娥的宠物。Companion“伴侣，伙伴”；guide“向导”；choice“选择”。
