【解析】

本文介紹了赫伯不害怕獨自在家。當(dāng)赫伯等他的父母時，他會看電視上的電影。一天一個人想進(jìn)入房間，且這個人可能是賊。赫伯敲鼓嚇跑了他。

【1】句意：他以前常常獨自一人呆著，所以他并不害怕。A. worried擔(dān)憂的；B. lonely孤獨的； C. afraid 害怕的；D. sad難過的。由“He had often stayed alone before”可知，他一人在家，不會感到害怕。由下文As he waited for his parents to return home, he watched the latest films on TV. 可知，此處并非“焦慮的”“孤獨的”“悲傷的”，故A、B、D 三項排除。

【2】句意：隨著時間的流逝，他的眼皮越來越沉。A. The films電影；B. His body他的身體； C. The night夜晚；D. His eyes他的眼睛。由句子Suddenly Herb's eyes opened wide.可知，

他的眼皮越來越沉。排除A、B、C 三項。故選D。

【3】句意：隔壁房間里是什么噪聲？A. talk談話；B. noise噪聲；C. person人；D. thing東西。由下文Herb heard the window slowly being inched (一點一點地) open.可知，他聽到窗戶被一點一點地慢慢推開，可知他聽到的是噪音。故選B。

【4】句意：有一分鐘，赫布嚇得不敢動。A. hear聽見；B. cry哭；C. move移動；D. think思考。結(jié)合語境可知，A/B/D均不符合語境。故選C。

【5】句意：他知道他不能失去理智，開始考慮他能做的事情。A. head頭；B. heart 心臟；C. hope希望；D. way路，方法。lose one’s head 表示“不能自制，張皇失措( 如突發(fā)的氣憤或恐懼) ”。lose one’s heart 表示“傾心于( 某人) ”；lose one’s way 表示“迷路”，均不合語境，排除B/D。lose one’s hope 不成立，故排除。因此本題選A。

【6】句意：在不經(jīng)過聽到噪音的窗戶時，他無法夠得著電話。A. reach sth.表示“夠得著”，強調(diào)結(jié)果。C. 項“觀看”，D. 項“抓住”，均不符合語境。B項touch 強調(diào)動作“碰，接觸”，顯然不對。故選A。

【7】句意：他又聽到有人試圖從窗戶爬進(jìn)他的房間。A. walk 走；B. run跑；C. jump跳；D. climb爬。結(jié)合句意可知，有人試圖從窗戶爬進(jìn)屋子里。A、B 兩項明顯不符合語境。由語境知，他企圖越窗而入，不能用jump“跳”。故選D。

【8】句意：他拿起鼓槌，盡可能地敲鼓。A. fast 快的；B. hard努力地；C. carefully仔細(xì)地； D. strongly強壯地。beat as hard as he could 指“用盡全力敲”。由“The commotion was so terrible ”可知他使勁擊鼓。故選B。

【9】句意：鼓聲那么響，甚至連他自己也感到驚訝。B. even 表示遞進(jìn)關(guān)系“甚至”。A 項“仍然”，C 項“也許”，D 項“相當(dāng)”，均不表遞進(jìn)，不合語境。故選B。

【10】句意：他也驚訝窗戶上的人，盡可能快地逃跑了。the person in the window正在窗子上的那個人。in the window “在窗戶上”，為固定搭配。
