試題分析：本文講述的是David和媽媽在冰上行走的時候，媽媽因為地滑而摔倒。后來老師布置了一下家庭作業(yè)，讓所有人都想一個小發(fā)明。David就想起了這個事情，發(fā)明出了防滑手杖。
1.D 動詞辨析。A跌落；下降B觸摸，打動C放置，下蛋，鋪D摔倒，跌倒。他和母親在冰面上行走，很容易摔倒。根據下文Susan pulled herself up也可知道媽媽摔倒了。故D正確。
2.A 短語辨析。A沖向B站在一邊C看D四處跑；媽媽摔倒在冰面上，他趕緊走過去幫助媽媽站起來。A項最能表示他對媽媽的關心之情，與下文的發(fā)明創(chuàng)造聯(lián)系在一起。
3.C 副詞辨析。A堅定地B容易地C搖晃地D迅速地；Susan摔倒在冰面之上，站起來的時候，搖搖晃晃地。說明她摔得很重。
4.A 副詞辨析。A頻繁地B緩慢地C自由地D重地；根據since she had trouble walking.可知她在冰面上行走有可能，摔倒的次數越來越多，故使用A項。
5.B 詞義辨析。A躲藏的B可能C當然（副詞）D等待的；對Susan來說沒一寸冰面都是一份危險的存在。
6.B 上下文串聯(lián)。根據上文she had trouble walking和David, too,可知孩子自己在冰上行走也很困難。故B正確。
7.A 詞義辨析。Little可以作為副詞adv.不多，略微；少許，一點；短時間地；本句中只說話很少。
8.C 形容詞辨析。A有用的B奇怪的C特殊的D普通的；由下文描述可知老師讓學生每個人想出一個新的發(fā)明，這是一項很特殊的家庭作業(yè)，和平時的很不一樣。故C項符合。
9.A 上下文串聯(lián)。根據下文"INVENT AMERICA”可知這是一項與發(fā)明有關的作業(yè)。故A正確。
10.C 固定句式。Sth hit sb某人突然想起某事；這里的hit相當于strike，occur to。這個孩子突然想起了一個主意。
11.B 動詞辨析。A系勞B安裝C黏在D系；這里是只把一個突出在外面的釘子安裝在手杖的底端。
12.C 上下文串聯(lián)。根據下句父母擔心釘子會把地板弄壞。說明上下文存在著轉折關系，故使用but。
13.A 動詞詞義辨析。A會B也許C做D需要；男孩告訴父母他會把釘子弄得像圓珠筆一樣，不會傷害到地板。
14.C 上下文串聯(lián)。根據上文敘述可知本句是男孩處理突出的釘子的方法，按住按鈕，釘子就會縮進去。
15.D 動詞辨析。A幫助B支持C注意到D看（長時間）；Susan用這樣的手杖走了很遠，David和他的父親一直都在看，看手杖是否起作用。
16.A 上下文串聯(lián)。本文一直講述的就是在冰面上使用手杖的話題，Susan用這樣的手杖在冰面上行走。
17.D 動詞辨析。A幫助B操作C成功D起作用，工作；Susan高興地宣布，這個手杖很有作用。
18.D 動詞辨析。A表揚B接受C贏得D宣布；David被宣布贏得了"INVENT AMERICA"。D項符合語境。
19.B 上下文串聯(lián)。根據41空前The boy had a speech problem,可知他有講話方面的問題，現在他需要說得更清楚，要和別人更為自如地交流。
20.A 上下文串聯(lián)。本文一直都在講述的是David發(fā)明實用的在冰上行走的手杖的話題。故A符合上下文。
