短文讲述了一个故事。美国总统罗斯福在一次打猎时,拒绝射杀捆在树上的熊。

Teddy bear玩具就来自于这个故事。

小题1:“和…….一起”,用with。

小题2:前一句用了过去完成时,后面是个否定省略句,与前一句内容结构一样,因此也应使用过去完成时。

小题3:句意是:没人想让他难过。

小题4:第二段第一句话中,得知熊是系在树上的。

小题5:指代上文中提到的“an American black bear”。

小题6:句意是:这只熊不能跑开,射它,是不公平的。其他三项(难的、危险的、刺激的),都不符合语境。

小题7:正因为前面的想法(射它是不公平的),总统才拒绝射它。再看本段最后一句“the president refusing to shoot a cute bear”,信息更明确。

小题8:总统的故事传遍了全国,人人皆知。此句意思是:每个人都感动了。

小题9:人们倍受感动,才出现了有关这事的卡通片,前后意思递进。even“甚至”。

小题10:Teddy's bear 是玩具,所以选择toy。

小题11:show…his window 在橱窗里展示。

小题12:考查固定搭配,provide ..with..提供某物给某人。

小题13:后文谈到“Teddy bear”既然是为孩子买玩具的首选,而且最后一句也说明它受到全世界人们的喜爱,可知,它肯定受欢迎。

小题14:后面内容表示时间,用when“当……时”。

小题15:考查名词的意思,根据文章的意思,得出应该是Theodore Roosevelt的决定。
