本文是一篇记叙文。叙述了Java的年轻人在the Night of the Full Moon狂欢的过程。 答案与解析：w.w.w.k.s.5.u.c.o.m
1 C．由第二段第一句可知，此处moon应是出来。let out放出，泄露，用作及物动词；give out用完，耗尽；set out动身，出发；come out出现，显露。故答案选C。
2 A。烟花燃放的声音把人们吸引出来便自然融入这温暖的夜晚。因此，答案为A。
B。由本段第一句可知，此处the paper remains3 应该是燃放过的剩余物。所以答案选B。burning燃烧的，broken破碎的，不合题意。
4 A。从本句的and covered their ears…可知，此处应是点燃烟花的动作，more后省略了fireworks。故答案选A。
5 D。根据常识及之前的描述，孩子们应该是点燃烟花后，兴奋地等着烟花爆炸。因此答案为D。 6 A．月亮的光芒只能用silver修饰。故答案选A。
C7 。这里提到城市里的情况，应是指街上人多。因此，答案为C。
D．从上文叙述可知，此节日是Java8 一年中一件大事，而不是会议，运动会，因此答案选D。 受到某人欢迎，是固定搭配。be popular with sb.。C。答案选C 9． 10 B。依据下文together可知，答案选B，gather together表示聚集在一起。 11 C。答案选C。此处指年青人整个晚上在漫漫地散着步。w.w.w.k.s.5.u.c.o.m 12 A。从下一段最后一句可知，这座山应是在该城市附近。故答案为A。 13 B。依据语境可推知，他们一直爬到古庙。答案选B，until表示“直到……”。 14 C。由上下文内容以及常识可知，此寺庙应该在山的顶部。故答案选C。
15 A。从上段未句可知，应是进入寺庙里。near在……附近；off远离；across在……另一边，都不合题意，只有inside在……里面合适，因此答案选A。
16 C。fond of喜爱；little of几乎没有；free of无……的。此处指的是月饼里装满了干果和水果，故选C，full of意为“充满……的”。
17 D。从空后的cross-legged in circle可知，此处应是坐，所以只有选D。
18 D。依据下文，有数百人在继续爬山，因此答案选D。A、B不合题意，yet虽有“仍然，还”之意，但多用于 否定句、疑问句中。
19 D。年青人爬山一定是“欣赏”月景，故选D。
20 B。到了午夜才停止放烟花，因此城市上空一定是灰色的烟雾。empty空的，peaceful安静的，clean干净的与文意不符，因此答案选B。 Passage 2

可以判断答案。“the woman responsible for”。考查行文逻辑。从下文1.C． 2.A。考查句意理解。句意为“几天之内，整个社区都知道这个谣言”。
3.B。考查语境理解。由本句的信息词“annoyed”可推知，此处表示“此人的情感受到深深的伤害”。 w.w.w.k.s.5.u.c.o.m
4.C。考查动词辨析。collect意为“收集”；spare意为“节省”；spread意为“散布”；share意为“分担”。依据上文“repeated a bit rumor”可知答案。 5.B。考查语境理解。下文“She was very sorry”是重要提示。
6. A。考查行文逻辑。从下文老人让这个妇女的做法以及“the wise man”可知，这位老人非常“有智慧(wise)”。
7.D。考查句法结构及句意。to repair the damage意为“补救自己的损失”，在句中作目的状语。 8.D。考查动词辨析。provide意为“提供”；charge意为“要（价）”；bargain意为“讨价还价”；
buy意为“买”。依据语境可知“老人让她去买一只鸡”。
9.C。考查语境理解。由下文“pluck its feathers and drop them”可判断“鸡买过后把它杀掉”。 10.A。考查介词短语。one by one意为“一个一个地”；all in all意为“总的来说”；day by day意为“一天天地”；step by step意为“逐步地”。依据语境，答案选A。
11.B。考查连词辨析。前后句语意存在转折关系，因此，答案选although。despite是介词，不可连接句子。
12.C。考查连词用法。what引导宾语从句，一方面起连接句子作用，另一方面在从句中作动词do的宾语，不含疑问意思。
13.A。考查行文逻辑。由上文“pluck its feathers”可知答案。
14.A。考查句意理解。句意为“把昨天丢的鸡毛收集起来，然后带给我”。
15.B。考查动词辨析。copy意为“抄写”；follow意为“沿着”；have意为“拥有”；instruct意为“指示”。依据句意，答案为B。
16.C。考查动词时态。从时间上看，风已经把鸡毛吹走，因此用过去完成时。
17.C。考查名词辨析。days意为“日子”；times意为“时间”；hours意为“小时”；periods意为“期间”。依据情景，应是找了几个小时。
18.A。考查连词词义。前后句意思存在转折关系，因此选but。
19.D。考查句子结构。用it作形式主语，替代不定式短语to spread a rumor。 20.B。考查连词辨析。前后句意思含有条件意味，所以选once。 w.w.w.k.s.5.u.c.o.m Passage3
