這篇短文主要講述了一名強(qiáng)壯的牛仔騎馬游玩時(shí)，發(fā)現(xiàn)一個(gè)酒吧，就把馬栓在外面去喝酒，這是他發(fā)現(xiàn)一些人在朝他做鬼臉，當(dāng)他出去的時(shí)候，他發(fā)現(xiàn)他的馬不見了，他很冷靜，返回酒吧說“我不知道你們對(duì)我的馬做了什么，如果一會(huì)我的馬還是回不來，我不想做我在Texas做過的事情”，他們有點(diǎn)害怕，一會(huì)兒他的馬放回來了。

【1】句意：一天，一個(gè)強(qiáng)壯的牛仔騎著他的馬旅行時(shí)，他看到了一個(gè)酒吧。他決定停下來喝幾杯。

根據(jù)上文“One day a strong cowboy was traveling on his horse when he saw a bar.”可知，下文是他決定停下來去喝酒。decide to do sth.決定去做某事；stop動(dòng)詞，停下來。根據(jù)句意，故答案為stop。

【2】句意：于是他把馬拴在酒吧外面，走進(jìn)酒吧，點(diǎn)了兩瓶啤酒。

根據(jù)上文“so he tied his horse outside the bar, walked into the bar”可知此處是“去酒吧點(diǎn)了啤酒”。beer名詞，啤酒。根據(jù)句意，故答案為beer

【3】句意：他猜想他們可能會(huì)捉弄他，但他什么也沒說，繼續(xù)喝酒。

根據(jù)上文“He looked around and noticed some people making faces to him.”可知，下文是“他猜他們可能在戲弄他”。短語play some tricks sb.表示“捉弄某人，開某人的玩笑”。此空填介詞on。根據(jù)題意，故答案為on。

【4】句意：喝酒后，他走出酒吧，發(fā)現(xiàn)他的馬丟了。

“walked out of the bar”走出酒吧，“ found his horse lost”發(fā)現(xiàn)馬丟失，這里是并列關(guān)系，用and連接。根據(jù)題意，故答案為and。

【5】句意：然而，他保持冷靜，回到酒吧，慢慢地說：“我不知道你們這些傻瓜在外面對(duì)我的馬做了什么……但我五分鐘后就要走了�！�

根據(jù)上文“However, he kept calm, came back into the bar”可知，他保持冷靜，可知下文是“他慢慢地說”，此處是副詞修飾動(dòng)詞。所給單詞slow形容詞，慢的，這里用副詞slowly，慢地。根據(jù)句意，故答案為slowly。

【6】句意：聽到這些話后，其他顧客似乎有點(diǎn)害怕。

根據(jù)上文“The cowboy added, "And I don't want to do what I did in Texas!"”可知下文是“聽到這些話后，其他顧客似乎有點(diǎn)害怕”。frighten動(dòng)詞，使驚嚇，使驚恐。seem連系動(dòng)詞，后加形容詞，此處用frighten的形容詞frightened，意思是“害怕的”，根據(jù)句意，故答案為frightened。

【7】句意：牛仔回到座位上，又點(diǎn)了兩瓶啤酒。

根據(jù)上文“The cowboy went back to his seat”可知下文是“又點(diǎn)了兩杯啤酒”。another+數(shù)詞+名詞，表示再幾……；根據(jù)題意，故答案為another。

【8】句意：五分鐘后，他走了出來，發(fā)現(xiàn)他的馬被綁在它應(yīng)該在的地方。

after+一段時(shí)間，表示“在多長(zhǎng)時(shí)間之后”，minute名詞，分鐘；five+名詞復(fù)數(shù)。after five minutes表示“在5分鐘之后”。根據(jù)題意，故答案為minutes。

【9】句意：五分鐘后，他走了出來，發(fā)現(xiàn)他的馬被綁在它應(yīng)該在的地方。

根據(jù)“_it was supposed to be.”可知，此處是where引導(dǎo)的賓語從句，“發(fā)現(xiàn)他的馬被綁在它應(yīng)該在的地方”。根據(jù)題意，故答案為where。

【10】句意：牛仔轉(zhuǎn)身對(duì)老板低聲說：“我得步行回家！”

根據(jù)下文“and replied in a low voice, " I had to walk home!"”可知，此處是“牛仔轉(zhuǎn)身對(duì)老板低聲說”，turn to sb.表示某人轉(zhuǎn)身。整篇文章是過去式，用一般過去式，turn的過去式是turned。根據(jù)題意，故答案為turned。

首先要閱讀題干，整體把握文章大意，然后根據(jù)句意及上下文推測(cè)需要填寫的單詞，最后還要注意單詞形式的變化。例如：小題8，考查名詞復(fù)數(shù)形式。此處是“五分鐘后，他走了出來”；five+名詞復(fù)數(shù)。minute名詞，分鐘；復(fù)數(shù)形式“minutes”結(jié)合句意，故答案為minutes。
