試題分析：這篇短文講述的是一個小故事。有兩個好朋友，一個是船長，一個是商人。商人的兒子想當船員，所以就跟著船長出海。一次，鐵的價格降低了，船長買了很多鐵存放在商人朋友那里，就又出海了。后來鐵的價格漲的很高，商人賣了鐵，將前據(jù)為己有，等船長回來時，他謊稱鐵被老鼠吃掉了。船長沒說什么，等下一次船長出�；貋恚瑢ι倘苏f他的兒子被鳥叼走了。

1.考查名詞及語境的理解。句意：商人有一個兒子想當一名水手，于是船長就帶著他在自己的船上出海。根據(jù)上文可知，captain 是船長，故應該是帶他在自己的船上去出海，故用ship。car 汽車；train 火車；這兩項與文意不符；boat 小船；ship輪船。故選B。

2.考查動詞及語境的理解。句意：一天，船長帶著很多錢出�；貋恚倘藢λf鐵的價格下降了，建議他買一些。根據(jù)文意，鐵的價格應該是降低了，所以才會勸船長買一些。fall 下降；change 改變；rise 上升；widen加寬。根據(jù)文意可知選A。

3.考查動詞及語境的理解。句意：我會在我的儲藏室里為你保存著。hide 藏，隱藏；hold 舉行，拿著；put 放置；keep保存。根據(jù)文意可知商人勸船長買一些鐵，然后在儲藏室里保存。故選D。

4.考查連詞及語境的理解。句意：我會在我的儲藏室里為你保存著直到你下次出海回來。when 當...時候；since 自從；until 直到……時候；after在……之后。根據(jù)句意可知保存到出�；貋恚视�until。

5.考查形容詞及語境的理解。句意：也許你會得到更多的錢。less 更少；many 許多；more 更多；little少。商人覺得以低價買的鐵以后價格也許會升高，故可以賺更多的錢。故選C。

6.考查形容詞及語境的理解。句意：當船長離開的時候，鐵的價格升的很高。slowly 慢地；expensive 昂貴的；cheap 便宜的；high高的。由下文可知鐵的價格升高了，故A、C不對。修飾價格應該用high，而不是expensive，故選D。

7.考查形容詞及語境的理解。句意：當船長回來的時候，他的不誠實的朋友告訴他說，老鼠把鐵吃掉了。根據(jù)句意可知，商人想吞下這筆錢，所以騙他的朋友說是老鼠把鐵吃掉了，所以他是一個不誠實的朋友，dishonest 不誠實的。honest 誠實的；real 真實的；former以前的。故選A。

8.考查動詞及語境的理解。句意：當船長回來的時候，他的不誠實的朋友告訴他說，老鼠把鐵吃掉了。這里是商人謊稱鐵是被老鼠給吃掉了。eaten 吃；sold 賣；drank 喝；borrowed借。根據(jù)文意可知，老鼠不會賣或借鐵，也不會是把鐵喝了。故選A。

9.考查名詞及語境的理解。句意：船長知道他的朋友在說謊。tell a lie 說謊。這里的lie 是一個名詞，可數(shù)名詞。lie 作動詞是躺下，說謊的意思；lay 是lie 的過去式；還有下蛋的意思；lying是一個現(xiàn)在分詞。根據(jù)句意可知選B。

10.考查形容詞及語境的理解。句意：船長知道他的朋友在說謊，但是他保持鎮(zhèn)靜說，我知道你的儲藏室里有老鼠。stay calm 保持鎮(zhèn)靜。friendly 友好的；quietly 安靜的；兩個是副詞；angry生氣的。由下文知船長并沒有生氣，也沒有說破。故選C。

11.考查形容詞及語境的理解。句意：幾天后，船長又開始了另一次航行。the other 指兩個中的另一個；another 另一個；other 其他的，另外的；others 代詞，指其他的人或物。這里是說船長又要開始去航行了，故根據(jù)句意可知選B。

12.考查連詞及語境的理解。句意：當他回到家的時候，他對商人說，很抱歉，在我們航行期間，一只鳥把你的兒子帶走了。while 當……時候；after 在...之后；during 在……期間；before在……之前。根據(jù)句意可知B、D不對；while 是一個連詞，后面應該跟從句，這里空后跟的是名詞，故用during。

13.考查形容詞及語境的理解。句意：商人感到非常迷惑，說鳥不可能把人帶走。disappointed 失望的；puzzled 迷惑的；happy 快樂的；afraid 害怕的。這里是說商人不相信船長說的話，鳥怎么會能把一個孩子帶走呢，所以是他感到很迷惑。故選B。

14.考查副詞及語境的理解。句意：老鼠也不可能吃鐵，船長回答說。neither+be/助動詞/情態(tài)動詞+主語，表示……也不……。either 也，用在否定句中，常放在句末；so 因此，所以；yet 還，已經(jīng)。這里是用neither 的一個倒裝的結構。故選B。

15.考查動詞及語境的理解。句意：法官說，商人必須歸還船長他賣鐵所得的錢，而船長必須把商人的兒子帶回來給他。根據(jù)上文第二段中so the merchant sold it and kept the money可知，商人把鐵賣掉了，故應是賣鐵所得的錢。won 贏得；lose 失去，丟失；bought 買。根據(jù)文意選D。

考點：故事類短文。
