lonely意为“孤独的”，表示主观上感到孤独、寂寞，有较浓的感情色彩，是形容词，在句中作表语或定语，作定语时，意为“荒凉的，偏僻的”，多修饰表示地点的名词。

根据题干可知第二个空修饰前面的动词live，所以用副词alone；第一个空，在句中作定语，修饰空后的名词village，表示“偏僻的，荒凉的”，所以用lonely；第三个空，感官动词feel后应接形容词lonely，强调孤独感，有感情色彩。

故选C。

2正确使用used to1．I used to be short when I was young. 我年轻时个子很矮。

2．—Did you use to have straight hair? 你过去是直发吗？—Yes, I did. 是的。

【探究提升】1．本单元主要内容是学会used to结构。

Used t o +动词原形表示过去经常、以前常常，只用于过去式中，用来表示现在已不存在的习惯或状态。

例如：They used to play football together．他们过去常在一起蹋足球。

（现在不在一起踢了)2．used to的疑问形式和否定形式为Did you use to…?和I didn’t use to… 也可以用Used you to…?和I used not to…但现在多使用前者。

1．—Did Mario used to be short?—Yes, he did. Now he is tall．2．—I used to eat candy all the time, didn’t you?—Yes, I did. And I used to chew gum a lot.【巩固训练】used to 用法【例】My uncle used to go to work on foot. 我叔叔过去常常步行去上班。

例如：They used to play football together．他们过去常在一起蹋足球。

（现在不在一起踢了)2．used to的疑问形式和否定形式为Did you use to…?和I didn’t use to… 也可以用Used you to…?和I used not to…但现在多使用前者。

Unit 4 I used to be afraid of the dark（总分30分，时间30分钟）一、单项选择题(10分)1．______ important information he left for me! It’s of much ______ to me.A. What, useB. What an, useC. How, usefulD.How an, useful【答案】A【解析】试题分析：句意：他给我留下多么重要的信息啊！信息对我很有价值。

作定语时才用复合形容词的形式，排除A和B；具体数字+hundred的单数形式，排除C；故选D。

考点：考查数词。

3．John is ______ honest boy. He has ______ useful book.A. an; anB. a; aC. a; an D .an; a【答案】D【解析】试题分析：句意：约翰是一个诚实的男孩。

他有一本有用的书。

冠词作为一种虚词，只能和名词一起使用。

英语中的冠词分为不定冠词和定冠词。

不定冠词有两个，a 和 an。

a用在辅音开头的单词前面；an用于以元音开头的单词前。

不定冠词用在单数可数名词前面，表示这个人或事物是泛指的不确定的一个，相当于中文的“一个”。
