解析：once upon a time为固定搭配,意为"从前';old的发音以元音音素开头,故其前用不定冠词an,表示泛指。故选B项。6.答案：C
解析：感叹句有两种结构,即“ How ++主语+谓语!"和“What (+ a/an)+ W. +n. + 主语 + 谓语!”题干中 delicious 后面有名词food,所以要用what来引导感叹句;因为food是不可数名词,所以what后不加冠词。故选C项。7.答案：C解析：考查代词辨析。句意:这件衬衫对我来说小了点, 你能给我换一件吗? other“别的;其他的’；修饰可数名词复数;the other指两者中的另一者;another"另 ―;又一”,指三者或三者以上中的另一个。others泛指其他的人或事物。根据语境选C。8.答案：A解析：考查形容词的比较等级。句意:——看了中央电视台在凉山举办的2017年春节联欢晚会吗？——当然了。它的主题是“火”,在晚上,西昌的上空在火光的照躧下像白天一样明亮。as... as是原级比较,排除选项C、D;由前面的动词was可知,这里要用形容词作表语。故选A9.答案：C解析：考查动词时态。句意:简一看见吉姆就爱上了他。 fall in love with意为“爱上”,由saw可知时态应为一般过去时。故选C。10.答案：C解析：考查非谓语动词及连词辨析。句意愚公竭尽所能去移他家前面的山是为了能更容易、更快地到达山的另 —边。前一空是动词不定式作目的状语;in order to后跟动词原形;so that和in order that后跟句子。故选C二、阅读理解答案：1-5 CACBC解析：1.细节理解题。根据第一段中的"He looked through its golden gate, hoping to take a look at a real prince(王子)"可知汤姆是为了见真正的王子。故选C。
2.细节理解题。根据第二段中的"Tom, dressed badly, was moving nervously past them"可知, 当时Tom觉得很紧张, 故答案为A。
3.细节理解题。根据第四段中的"The young prince, whose name was Edward, was angry with the guard for his rudeness."可知王子是因为士兵的粗鲁行为而生气。故选C。
4.推理判断题。根据第五段中的"As they stood side by side in front of a great mirror, they were surprised to find that they looked almost like twins!"可知, 汤姆与爱德华像双胞胎, 因此A选项错误; 通读全文可知, 文章并未提到爱德华疲于在宫殿里生活, 因此C选项错误; 王子爱德华因为士兵粗鲁而生气, 还与汤姆成为朋友且惩罚士兵, 说明他是个善良友好的人。 故选B。
5.推理判断题。根据最后一段中的士兵把穿着汤姆的衣服的王子爱德华认错并扔出宫殿可知, 不能以貌取人, 故选C。 三、完形填空答案：1.B 2.B 3.C 4.D 5.B 6.A 7.C 8.D 9.A 10.C解析：1.B 根据上句 “Scotland was fighting with England.”及选项可推断,苏格兰和英格兰发生战争， 英格兰国王是想控制苏格兰。故选B。2.B 根据前半句“He had a strong army so it was... ”推知，战争对苏格兰来说是困难的。故选B。3.C 根据上句 “He thought that he was not good enough to be king.”可知，罗伯特国王不自信，很担心。故选C。4.D结合语境，上句提到罗伯特国王没有注意到附近 有一只蜘蛛。当他看到爬行的蜘蛛时，他抬起头来。 look up意为“向上看".故选D.5.B根据上文语境，这只蜘蛛往上爬的时候掉了下来。罗伯特国王感叹这只蜘蛛像他一样，不够强大。故选B。6.A本句和上文构成转折关系。上文国王认为小蜘蛛不可能回到它的蜘蛛网，但是小蜘蛛一次次地尝试。 故选A。7.C上文提及蜘蛛不够强大，不断地掉下来，却又不断地尝试.下文提到"After an hour, the spider got to the web. ”，由此可知蜘蛛爬得很慢。故选C。8.D根据前文可知，此处罗伯特国王感叹“你真是一只 伟大的蜘蛛”。故选D。9.A根据上句得知，罗伯特国王受蜘蛛精神的鼓励，继续与英格兰战斗。他的部队越来越强大，最终阻止了英国的军队。故选A。10.C句意：他的部队强大起来，阻止了英国的军队。 stop意为"阻挡"。故选C。四、短文填空答案：1. lost 2. weak 3. stone 4. voice 5. reminded    6.took 7. silly 8. shining 9. bright 10. nothing五、句子翻译1.答案：wake up2.答案：brave enough3.答案：the poor4.答案：for the first time5.答案：making a plan六、书面表达答案：Hello, everyone!     Today I will share the story of Yu Gong Moves a Mountain with all of you.     Once upon a time, there was an old man called Yu Gong.
