一、【短文大意】有一天,动物们在森林里发现了一个磅秤,它们每天都到磅秤那里称体重,并且担心自己的体重会增加,这给它们带来了烦恼。后来磅秤想方设法地让动物们又高兴了起来。
1. D 【解析】由下文中的“weigh themselves”可知,它们去称体重。
2. A 【解析】how much weight 意为“多重”,weight 为不可数名词,应用 how much 修饰。
3. B 【解析】每天称体重的原因是担心自己发胖。worry about 意为“担心”,符合句意。
4. A 【解析】称完体重后,它们就很不高兴地度过一天中剩下的时间。spend 意为“度过”,符合句意。
5. C 【解析】结合上下文语境可知,此句在解释动物们每天不开心的原因,故用 because。
6. A 【解析】时间长了,动物们就不再喜欢磅秤。treat...badly 意为“对待……很坏”。
7. D 【解析】由下文内容可判断,磅秤改变了方法。change 意为“改变”。
