解析【小題1】had been to, 表示“曾經去過”，本句意思是“剛剛去那村買東西。”故選B。
【小題2】考查介詞的用法：“need sth. for”中for表示“為了”。大意是“他買的是第二天要用的東西。”選C。
【小題3】從下文“It seemed a long time to wait until after super,” 可推出答案是期待晚餐時間。選C。
【小題4】從前一句 he had an extra reason to hurry home 可知這餐unusual （不平常的），不是經常可以吃的。ordinary平凡的，normal正常的, common 普通的，都不符合，選B。
【小題5】“something cost somebody (money)”為句型。某物花費某人多少錢。選D。
【小題6】“leave something doing …”，意思是“讓某物 …”；cook意思是“烹調”，第二段最后一句while the meat was still cooking.也有提示，而boil指用水煮。B正確。

故選C。

【小題11】考查動詞詞組。throw off“匆忙脫（衣物）”，get off表示“下車，出發”，turn off意思是“關掉 …”。C
【小題12】前面的He left it cooking over the fire.可知把肉朝火邊推推。選D。
【小題13】考查詞組意義。“as soon as”“一 …，就 …”，表現出他很心急；as well as意思是“以及 …”；no sooner表示“剛剛 …，就 …”后面接than；as long as意思是“只要”。故選A
【小題14】因果關系：因為他等不及，所以要早點把金子拿出來看。選C。
【小題15】詞組“take up the floorboards”意思是“拿起地板”。D正確。
【小題16】從后面的句子as his trembling hands felt all round the hole看出這是空洞，本句意思是：他看到的是一個空空的洞。選B。
