解题依据 解题分析
1 D 词义比较 for表示"对于……来说"，指对象和用途；to表示"对……，朝……"，仅指对象；with通常表示伴随意义；by表示方式意义。句意：对于一个独居的老妇人来说这是一种打发时间的愉快方法。
2 B 常识运用
逻辑推理
词汇用法 Mrs Clarke如果事务繁忙(busily)就无法去妇女俱乐部，她也不可能在很远(away)的地方，这样不方便。后文她的日常活动反映出距离不远。lonely"孤独的"为形容词，不能修饰动词lived。从后文可以得出，她是独自(alone)一个人住着。
3 C 常识运用
逻辑推理
词义比较 从后面一句"Had someone got in?"，可知她回家后觉得情况反常(unusual)，至于坏事(bad)、不舒服的(uncomfortable)事或可怕的(terrible)事都是情况反常的情况之一，太具体。
4 A 常识运用
逻辑推理 后门和窗户还都完好地锁着(locked)，看来没人撬(broken ，opened)过门窗。fixed修理，安装，与文意不符。通读全文，知道小偷是用电线将门拴拉开偷了东西又将门锁上。
5 C 词义比较 scene场面，景色，布景；show表示, 展览，外观；sight视觉, 视域, 眼界；sign标记，踪迹，迹象。句意：没有迹象表明有人强行进入过房子。
6 A 词汇用法比较 Mrs Clarke并不知道丢了什么东西(anything)没有，因此才有后一句的"一个房间一个房间地核查"。 mo
