【解析】

試題分析：短文大意：這是一篇新聞報道：美伊戰爭給伊拉克人民帶來了災難，他們缺水、食物等生活必須品；孩子們害怕死亡。短文是一幅難民們逃難場景，讀后深惡痛絕英美聯軍，同情伊拉克人民。

1.考查介詞及語境理解。句意：美國士兵經過二十多天的戰斗后才到達巴格達。After和By的后面都跟時間點， for和during 都可以加一段時間，但during后直接與時間連用，由于文中時間前有over故排除。所以選A。

2.考查名詞及語境理解。句意：巴格達是伊拉克的首都。City城市；town城鎮；capital首都；village村莊。根據常識可知該選C。

3.考查數詞及語境理解。句意：成千上萬的伊拉克人在戰爭中死了。Thousand千；thousands of表示不確定數字，意為“成千上萬”；如果前有具體數字，thousand不變復數，其后也不加of。所以選D。

4.考查形容詞及語境理解。句意：戰后，薩達姆不知去向，下落不明。Tired累的；run跑；gone消失，逃亡；forgotten遺忘。根據句意可知該選C。

5.考查連詞及語境理解。句意：沒有人知道他活著還是死了。whether是否；when當…的時候；how怎么；that那。whether引導賓語從句，表示“是否”。所以選A。

6.考查名詞及語境理解。句意：現在伊拉克人需要食物，水和藥品。Spaceships宇宙飛船；flowers花；people人；medicine藥。根據下句Many soldiers and people who were hurt in the war need medical care. 可推知該選D。

7.考查名詞及語境理解。句意：人們需要的是找到親人的辦法。an idea主意；.a way方法；a plane飛機；a bridge橋。人們需要的是找到親人的辦法，而不是主意。所以選B。

8.考查動詞及語境理解。句意：聯軍潛進博物館偷走珍品。Bought買；borrowed借；stole偷；brought帶來。根據后文Many Iraqis are angry that the U.S. soldiers didn’t stop the robbers (搶劫者). 可知該選C。

9.考查副詞及語境理解。句意：報道時政府還沒成立。Still仍然；ever曾經；yet還，已；already已經。報道時政府還沒成立。still表示“仍然，還”。 其他三詞都用于完成時態。所以選A。

10.考查動詞短語及語境理解。句意：聯軍侵占伊拉克的目的是尋找大規模的殺傷性武器。looking at看；looking for尋找；giving up 放棄；putting down放下。美國人發動戰爭的目的是尋找伊拉克大規模殺傷性武器，故選B。

考點：新聞報道類短文。
