1.A. another泛指另外一个（男孩）；B. the others指代其他那些男孩们,后面不需要加名词；C. others泛指其他，后面不加名词； D. the other指其他所有的，后加名词。句意：他认为或许其他男孩正试图想知道他是什么样的人。此题空后有名词，所以根据句意“其他”应选D。

2.形容词与语境理解。A. lonely孤独的； B. friendly友好的；C. happy高兴的；D. uncertain不确定的，根据前文 He had a strange feeling he was not wanted可知，他觉得自己不被需要，这就是“孤独”，故选A。

3.动词与语境理解。examine多为考试测验；check根据一定标准检查对错；correct纠正；test 考验、考查。句意：他是新来的，他必须接受考验，根据句意此题选D。

4.副词与语境理解。A. even 即使；B. that那么；C. too太； D. much太多，句意：证明他自己仍然不是那么容易，that此处为程度副词，意思为“那么”，故选 B。

5.介词与语境理解。A. for为了；B. against反对；C. on在……上面；D. about关于，句意：他不想通过和坏孩子交朋友或做一些违法的事情来证明他是强壮的。or表明前后事物的相关性，所以可猜出是指“违法”的事情，英文表达为against the law。故选B。

6.形容词与语境理解。A. weak虚弱； B. friendly友好； C. strong强壮； D. lovely可爱的，句意：他不想通过和坏孩子交朋友或做一些违法的事情来证明他是强壮的。 从第3段第3句…that might be enough to prove he was strong知，本题选C。
