22、ketC. court D. hospital答案与解析语篇解读本文是一则故事，主要讲述的是一个小矮人智破珠宝失窃案。1A人们不知道他是谁，只知道他住在宫中。根据语境可知，此处选A项。2C根据语境可知，宫中有贼，人们就要把珠宝藏好，故选C项，hide“隐藏”。3A国王决定弄清楚这个贼是谁。find out“查明，弄清”，符合语境。pick out“挑选”；work out“制订出”；take out“带出去”。第19空所在句中的“was found out”也是提示。4D根据语境可知，此处表示国王向一个以才智著称的小矮人求助。patience“耐心”；difference“差异”；confid
23、ence“信心”；intelligence“智慧；才智”。5D小矮人在宫中花了几天时间观察和倾听直到又有一起失窃案。故选D项，until“直到为止”。6C第二天早上小矮人把宫中所有的人召集到一间屋子里。下文第15空所在句中的“around the room”是提示。7B审视了人们一上午，小矮人一句话也没说。故选B项。8C午饭时小矮人开始逐个问他们对失窃的(stolen)珠宝都知道什么。9A突然其中的一个园丁开始咳嗽，痛苦地打滚，最后躺在了地板上。最后一段第一句中的“the gardener”是提示。10A参见上题解析。11D小矮人微笑着解释说，他们刚刚吃的食物被下毒了。prepare“使做好准
24、备”；endanger“危及”；cook“烹饪”；poison“下毒”。本句后面的“for this poison”是提示。12A这种毒药唯一的解药就藏在前天被偷走的红宝石中。13B小矮人解释说他已经用一些假的红宝石把真正的红宝石换下来了。此题解题的关键是理解句中的genuine“真正的”的含义，不然就会误选A项。短语exchange.for.“把换成”。14C毒药很快就要起作用了，只有那个贼能够救(save)他自己的命。15B咳嗽声和呻吟声在屋子里传播开来，恐惧抓住了在场所有的人，除了一个仆人。present“在场的”，符合语境。16B这位仆人立即跑到他藏珠宝(jewels)的地方，拿出那颗红宝石。17D对于这个贼来说，他能打开红宝石并喝里面奇怪的液体救他自己的命是幸运的，故选D项。fortunately“幸运地”；especially“尤其”；particularly“特别”；deliberately“故意地”。 18B实际上那位咳嗽的园丁是小矮人的一个助手，毒药只是能引起短时间的剧痛。nothing but“只是”。 19D那个仆人被查出来后被卫兵逮捕了，并迅速送往法庭(court)，在那儿他将得到严惩。根据语境可知选D项。arrest“逮捕”；blame“责怪”；watch“注视”；beat“打败”。 20C参见上题解析。
