【解析】

本文讲述了在很久以前的一个很远的小村庄里，有一个地方叫“千镜屋”。一只快乐的小狗去这个地方，发现了一千只快乐的狗，决定经常来这里。另一只非常伤心的狗来到这里，发现了一千只伤心的狗，他决定再也不来这里了。本文告诉我们生活就像一面镜子，你对它笑它也对你笑！

1.句意：一只快乐的小狗知道了这个地方，决定去看看。

考查名词辨析。boy男孩；man人；cat猫；dog狗。根据“To his great surprise, he 4 himself looking at 1,000 other happy little dogs with their tails wagging just as fast as 5 .”令他大吃一惊的是，他发现自己正看着另外1000只快乐的小狗，它们的尾巴摇得和他的一样快。可知，应该是一只快乐的小狗知道了这个地方。决定去看看。故选D。

2.句意：当他到达时，他高兴地跑上台阶，到了房子的门口。

考查介词。down向下；up向上；through贯穿；past经过。根据“When he arrived,”当他到达时。可知，他应该是拾级而上，因此应该选择up向上；符合语境。故选B。

3.句意：他竖起耳朵朝门口望去，尽可能快地摇着尾巴。

考查副词辨析。sadly令人遗憾；slowly缓慢地；fast快地，可以做形容词和副词； soon是副词，表示不久以后，指时间。根据“To his great surprise, he 4 himself looking at 1,000 other happy little dogs with their tails wagging just as fast as 5 .”令他大吃一惊的是，他发现自己正看着另外1000只快乐的小狗，它们的尾巴摇得和他的一样快(as fast as 5 .)。可知，当这只小狗到达时，他抬起耳朵朝门口望去，尽可能快地摇着尾巴。故选C。

4.句意：令他大吃一惊的是，他发现自己正看着另外1000只快乐的小狗，它们的尾巴摇得和他的一样快。

考查动词辨析。felt感觉；heard听到；found发现；looked看。look是不及物动词，需与at连用才可以跟宾语，因此选项D不对；根据“He looked into the door with his ears lifted high…”他竖起耳朵朝门口望去。可知，应该选择found发现；符合语境。故选C。

5.句意：令他大吃一惊的是，他发现自己正看着另外1000只快乐的小狗，它们的尾巴摇得和他的一样快。

考查代词。his他的，名词性的物主代词；her她的，形容词性的物主代词；yours你的，名词性的物主代词；its它的，名词性的物主代词。这句话是指镜子里1000只快乐的小狗的尾巴摇得和他的尾巴摇得一样快。因此用名词性的物主代词his指镜子外的狗的尾巴。故选A。

6.句意：这是个很棒的地方。我会经常回来拜访。

考查形容词辨析。sad悲伤的；terrible可怕的；wonderful美妙的；usual平常的。根据“I will come back and visit often.”我会经常回来拜访。可知，对于这只狗来说，他认为这是个很棒的地方。故选C。

7.句意：在同一个村子里，另一只小狗没有第一只那么高兴。

考查代词。other“其他的，另外的”位于名词前做定语。another再一个，另一个；others相当于other+名词复数，指剩余的另一些，并非全部。the others特指某一范围内的“其他的（人或物）”相当于the other+名词复数，指剩余的全部。根据空后面的little dog是名词，因此排除C/D；other作限定词时可接复数可数名词，而little dog是单数，因此不对；another 作限定词时可接单数可数名词。故选B。

8.句意：他慢慢地爬上台阶，低着头望门里看。

考查副词辨析。quickly迅速地；excitedly兴奋地；happily快乐地；slowly 缓慢地。根据“…and hung his head low as he looked into the door.”低着头望门里看。说明这只不快乐的小狗应该是无精打采的慢慢地爬上台阶的。故选D。

9.句意：当他看到1000只看起来不高兴的狗回头看他时，他冲着他们吠叫。

考查形容词辨析。unhappy不高兴的；friendly友好的；happy高兴的；kind友善的。根据“he barked at 10 .”他冲着他们吠叫。可知，镜子里的狗的表情是和他的一样，也是不高兴的。因此他才冲着他们吠叫。故选A。

10.句意：当他看到1000只看起来不高兴的狗回头看他时，他冲着他们吠叫。

考查代词。him他；them他们；us 我们；you你们。根据“When he saw the 1,000…”可知，他看见的是1000只狗同时看他，因此他是冲着他们吠叫。故选B。

11.句意：这是一个可怕的地方，我再也不来了。

考查连词。since从……以后；or或者；but但是；and和，并且。句子This is a terrible place 和句子I will never go back there again.之间是一种顺承关系。故选D。

12.句意：世界上所有的面孔都是镜子。

考查名词辨析。mirrors镜子；dogs狗；pictures照片；faces脸。根据“What kind of reflections (反照) do you see on the faces of the people you meet?”你在遇到的人的脸上看到了什么样的反映？可知，只有镜子才能反照，因此前句话是说世界上所有的面孔都是镜子。故选A。
