一、完形填空
阅读下面的短文,从各题所给的四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。
It was raining heavily. Michael was 1 at home. There's no one else in the house. The sound of thunder was so loud. It felt like the gods were 2 in the sky. He felt a little 3, so he took his favourite novel, *The Adventures of Tom Sawyer*, from the bookshelf to calm down.
Again, there was a terrible sound of thunder. 4 he tried hard to continue reading, the doorbell rang. It couldn't be his parents. He looked at the wall clock—it was only ten minutes past three. The doorbell sounded again, breaking the silence. Michael's heart beat 5. "Who's there?" he shouted. There was no 6. He remembered his parents' warnings, "Michael, 7 answer the door without knowing who is on the other side."
"Should I 8 the door?" Thinking for a moment, he realized that 9 was important when he was alone. He knew he had to be 10. He went into a room and came out with a baseball bat, which he hid behind the door.
"11 is at the door?" he asked again, but still, there was no reply.
Then he heard a voice shouting, "Michael! It's Dad! Why don't you open the door?"
Michael recognized the voice and hurried to open the door.
As he opened it, his father looked at him with 12. "Why are you holding a baseball bat?" he asked.
Michael replied, the bat in hand, "You and Mum always told me to 13 myself when I'm home alone. I think I should be careful."
His father 14 him a big smile and said, "You did exactly the 15 thing, Michael. It's important to keep safe. I'm proud of you for being so brave."

【完形填空】
文章讲述了大雨滂沱的日子里，迈克尔独自在家，被雷声吓得有些害怕，这时门铃突然响起。他想起父母“不明身份者绝不开门”的警告，为了安全拿起棒球棒防身，反复询问门外是谁却无人回应，直到听到父亲的声音才开门。父亲看到他手持棒球棒虽感惊讶，但称赞他做得对，肯定了他独自在家时注重安全、谨慎勇敢的行为。
第2题：抓住“thunder was so loud”（雷声巨大）的核心语境，结合拟人手法的表达逻辑。雷声的轰鸣感如同“剧烈碰撞”，选项中只有“fighting”（打架）能还原这种强烈的声音特质；而“singing”（唱歌）、“dancing”（跳舞）、“running”（跑步）均无法匹配雷声的震撼感，不符合语境逻辑，故选C。
第4题：分析前后分句的语义关系——“他努力继续看书”与“门铃响了”几乎同时发生，因此选用“When”（当……时）符合句意；而“Though”（尽管）用于引导转折状语从句，“Because”（因为）表因果、“If”（如果）表条件，均与分句间的逻辑关系不符，故选A。
第9题：联系全文核心话题（独自在家的安全），结合前文父母的安全警告和后文“拿棒球棒防身”的行为。文章围绕“独自在家如何保障安全”展开，此处“意识到独自在家时__________很重要”，必然是“safety”（安全）；“health”（健康）、“friendship”（友谊）、“wealth”（财富）均与文章主旨无关，故选B。
第12题：还原“父亲敲门无人回应，开门后看到儿子手持棒球棒”的场景，推断父亲的情感。父亲原本只是敲门找儿子，未预料到儿子会拿棒球棒，因此应是“surprise”（惊讶）；“happiness”（开心）、“pride”（自豪）是父亲了解原因后的情感，“worry”（担心）无语境支撑，故选D。
第13题：区分四个“look＋介词”短语的含义，结合“独自在家”的场景需求。“look after oneself”意为“照顾自己、保护自己”，符合父母对孩子独自在家的叮嘱；“look for”（寻找）、“look up”（查阅/抬头看）、“look out”（小心，后接宾语需加for）均无法表达“自我保护”的含义，故选C。

【分析】
做完形填空需遵循“先通览全文，再逐题突破，最后回读验证”的思路：第一步通读短文，把握核心主旨（本文讲述迈克尔独自在家时遇雷雨，门铃响起后牢记父母警告，谨慎应对以保障安全的故事）；第二步逐题分析，结合上下文语境、词汇含义、逻辑关系筛选选项，如第2题结合雷声的震撼感选“fighting”，第4题结合时间逻辑选“When”；第三步回读全文，验证所选答案是否符合文意与逻辑。
【解析】
1. 由后文“家里没人”可知迈克尔独自在家，选B（alone）；
2. 雷声巨大，拟人化表达为“像在打架”，选C（fighting）；
3. 雷声大让他有点害怕，选A（afraid）；
4. 当他努力看书时门铃响起，表时间逻辑，选A（When）；
5. 门铃响后他紧张，心跳快速，选B（quickly）；
6. 他问“谁在那”但没人回应，选D（reply）；
7. 父母警告绝不开门，选C（never）；
8. 此处问是否应门，answer the door是固定搭配，选C（answer）；
9. 全文围绕安全展开，意识到安全重要，选B（safety）；
10. 他知道要小心，选A（careful）；
11. 问谁在门口，选B（Who）；
12. 父亲看到他拿棒球棒很惊讶，选D（surprise）；
13. 父母叮嘱要照顾自己，look after oneself是固定短语，选C（look after）；
14. 父亲给了他一个大大的微笑，选A（gave）；
15. 他做了正确的事，选D（right）。
