C.a few

3. C

【分析】
这道题考查易混限定词的用法，解题思路分两步：第一步，根据空格后名词的可数性排除不符合的选项；第二步，结合句意判断需用肯定还是否定含义的限定词，最终确定答案。
【解析】
先辨析四个选项的用法：①a little和little修饰不可数名词，a little表肯定（一点），little表否定（几乎没有）；②a few和few修饰可数名词复数，a few表肯定（一些），few表否定（几乎没有）。题目中photos是可数名词复数，因此排除修饰不可数的A、B选项；结合句意“上海是一座美丽的城市，我们在那里拍了不少照片”，此处需表肯定含义，故选a few，对应选项C。
【答案】
C
【知识点】
形容词（few/a few/little/a little的用法）
【点评】
本题为初中英语基础词汇辨析题，核心考查易混限定词的修饰对象及含义区别，是常考基础题型，需牢记两类限定词的用法差异。

()4. Animals are good for us in many ways. For example, .

A.dogs can bark
B.parrots can learn to talk
C.cats can get down and roll over
D.hens can provide us with eggs

4. D

【分析】
首先明确题干核心是“动物在很多方面对我们有益”，需选出体现动物对人类有实际益处的选项。逐一分析选项：A选项狗会叫、B选项鹦鹉学说话、C选项猫趴下打滚，都只是动物的行为或技能，未体现对人类的好处；D选项母鸡为人类提供鸡蛋，是动物对人类的实际益处，符合题干要求。
【解析】
题干要求选出体现动物对人类有益的例子。A项狗会叫、B项鹦鹉学说话、C项猫的动作均为动物的本能表现，未涉及对人类的益处；D项母鸡产出鸡蛋供人类食用，是动物对人类的实际贡献，符合题意，因此选D。
【答案】
D
【知识点】
语境理解、be good for的用法
【点评】
本题结合生活常识考查对题干语境的理解，需准确把握“be good for us”（对我们有益）的含义，区分动物的行为与对人类的实际益处，属于基础题。

The Browns' dog, Tilly, was in the back garden. 3 Shortly afterwards, Tina saw lightning(闪电) in the sky and then everything in the house went dark. Frank was unhappy because he couldn't watch TV. Mark shouted from his room because he couldn't use his computer. 4 Frank went upstairs to look after the baby but when he climbed the stairs(楼梯), there was a loud sound and the house seemed to shake.
