Wrapped in his first blanket, Oliver could have been the child of a king or a beggar. But when the woman dressed him later in rough cotton clothes, yellow with age, he looked 1 (exact) what he was—an orphan(孤儿) in a workhouse, ready for a life of misery, hunger, and neglect. Oliver cried loudly. 2 he had known that he was a workhouse orphan, perhaps he would have cried even more loudly.
There was no one 3 (look) after the baby in the workhouse, so Oliver was sent to a special "baby farm" nearby. There, he and thirty other children rolled around the floor all day, without the 4 (convenient) of too much food or too much clothing. Mrs Mann, the old woman who "looked after" them, was very experienced. She knew what was good for children and 5 dangerous a full stomach was to their health. She also knew what was good for herself, so she kept the money that she 6 (give) for the children's food for her own use.
The board responsible 7 the orphans sometimes checked on the health of the children, but they always sent the beadle, a parish officer, to announce their visit the day before. 8 , whenever the board arrived, of course, the children were always neat and clean.
Oliver fought his first battle without much assistance from the two people present at his birth. One was an old woman, who was nearly always drunk, and the other was a busy local doctor, who was not paid enough to be very 9 (interest) in Oliver's survival. After all, 10 (die) was a common event in the workhouse, where only the poor and homeless lived. This was the way Oliver was brought up.

五、【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章节选自《雾都孤儿》，主要讲述了孤儿奥利弗在济贫院的悲惨处境，被送往育婴堂后遭到苛待的故事。
1. exactly 句意：但后来当女人给他穿上由于年头太久而发黄的粗棉布衣服，他看上去和他的身份完全一致了——一个济贫院的孤儿。修饰动词looked，应用副词。故填exactly。
2. If 句意：如果他已经知道自己是济贫院的孤儿，他可能会哭得更大声。本句为if引导的条件句，用虚拟语气表示与过去事实相反的情况。故填If。
3. to look 句意：济贫院里没有人照顾婴儿，所以奥利弗被送到附近一家专门的“育婴堂”。分析句子可知，句中已有谓语动词was，此处应用动词不定式修饰“no one”，表示“没有照顾婴儿的人”。故填to look。
4. inconvenience 句意：在那里，他和其他三十个孩子整天在地板上打滚，没有太多食物或太多衣服的不便。根据“too much food or too much clothing”可知太多食物或太多衣服对整天打滚的孩子们来说并不方便；根据“without the”可知此处应用名词。故填inconvenience。
难点分析
此处运用了反讽，作者故意用“没有……的不便”这种看似轻松的说法，来反衬孤儿们实际上忍饥挨饿、衣不蔽体的悲惨处境。
5. how 句意：她知道什么对孩子们有好处，饱腹对他们的健康有多危险。分析句子可知，句中and连接两个并列的宾语从句“what was good for children”和“ 5 dangerous a full stomach was to their health”，作knew的宾语，此处用how引导宾语从句，表示“多么危险”。故填how。
6. was given 句意：她也知道什么对她自己有好处，所以她把孩子们的伙食费留给自己用。“that she 6 (give) for the children's food”是定语从句，修饰先行词“the money”，“照顾”孩子的曼太太私自用了他人给孩子的钱，“give”和“she”是被动关系。故填was given。
7. for 句意：负责孤儿事务的董事会有时会检查孩子们的健康状况，可他们往往在前一天派执事（地方警察）去通告他们要来访问。responsible for表示“对……负责”。故填for。
8. Therefore 句意：负责孤儿事务的董事会有时会检查孩子们的健康状况，可他们往往在前一天派执事（地方警察）去通告他们要来访问。所以，当然，每当董事会到来时，孩子们总是整洁干净。上下文是因果关系，前因后果，句首首字母需大写。故填Therefore。
9. interested 句意：一位是几乎总是喝醉的老妇人，另一位是忙碌的当地医生，他的薪水不足以让他对奥利弗的存活非常在意。be interested in表示“对……感兴趣”。故填interested。
10. death 句意：毕竟在济贫院这个只有穷人和无家可归的人待的地方，死亡是一件非常平常的事。此处是句子主语，应用名词。故填death。
