【解析】寵物是人類忠實(shí)的朋友,在危急時(shí)刻,它們往往發(fā)揮了至關(guān)重要的作用。在一場森林大火中,一只勇敢的狗奮不顧身,拯救了多條生命。
1.答案:B 實(shí)際上,他對(duì)我非常順從,尤其是當(dāng)我照顧我們收容所里其他毛茸茸的動(dòng)物朋友們時(shí)。especially“尤其,特別”,符合語境,specially意為“專門地”。
2.2】答案:B 根據(jù)第二段最后一句話中的“during this hot summer”可知,森林大火時(shí)常在夏季發(fā)生。
3.3】答案:A 每年,不少森林都被大火嚴(yán)重毀壞。damage“損害,毀壞,破壞”,符合語境。
4.答案:D 根據(jù)語境可知,此時(shí)已沒有任何希望等Luke回到收容所了。
5.5】答案:C 根據(jù)下句中的“a fireman burst into my office”可知,事實(shí)上我在等消防員帶來的消息。In fact“事實(shí)上;實(shí)際上”。
6.6】答案:B 我是在等著消防隊(duì)員告訴我Luke在森林中死去的消息。
7.7】答案:C 一名消防隊(duì)員闖入我的辦公室告訴我說,我的Luke成功地解救了四只被困在火中的小貓。
8.8】答案:D 在此指四只小貓“被困在”火海中。trap“使陷入困境”,符合語境。
9.9】答案:B 那位消防隊(duì)員說,Luke抓住這些小貓,一只一只地把它們轉(zhuǎn)移到了安全的地方。
10.0】答案:A 我立刻陪著這名消防隊(duì)員趕往森林,去接那幾只被救的小貓。
11.1】答案:D 一到事故現(xiàn)場,并沒有看見Luke的身影。scene“地點(diǎn),現(xiàn)場”。
12.2】答案:A 我認(rèn)出那是我的Luke的聲音。recognize“認(rèn)出,辨別出”,符合語境。
13.3】答案:C 消防隊(duì)員們跟隨Luke的蹤跡尋找,直到發(fā)現(xiàn)他正在一個(gè)消防隊(duì)員旁邊大叫。
14.4】答案:D 由下文可知,這名消防隊(duì)員受傷了。
15.5】答案:C 這名消防隊(duì)員躺在地上,絕望地等待救援。
16.6】答案:B 那天,我為Luke的英勇行為感到自豪。action“所做之事,行為”,符合語境。
17.7】答案:C Luke既對(duì)那些像它一樣的動(dòng)物懷有同情之心,也對(duì)一個(gè)與同事一起努力撲滅大火的人伸出了援助之手。
18.8】答案:A 那是一個(gè)多么令人難以忘懷的場面呀!
19.9】答案:A 由小狗救命的事跡來看,消防隊(duì)員一定是緊緊地把Luke抱在胸前。tightly“緊緊地,牢固地”。
20.20】答案:D 本句后半句是對(duì)前半句“我們應(yīng)該愛它們,并保護(hù)它們”的解釋,故后半句意為“小動(dòng)物也能為人類做出了不起的大事”。

句意:消防隊(duì)員跟著Luke的蹤跡,直到發(fā)現(xiàn)它正在一個(gè)消防隊(duì)員旁邊大叫,那名消防隊(duì)員躺在地上,絕望地等待救援。其中found him barking是find+賓語+賓語補(bǔ)足語結(jié)構(gòu);who was lying on the ground and desperately waiting for rescue為定語從句,修飾前面an injured fireman。
