Suddenly, no more than 20 paces away was a huge Alaskan timber wolf—caught in a trap.From her appearance, I guessed she had been trapped for several days. She needed my help, I thought. But if I tried to release her, she would turn aggressive to me. The wolf was clearly suffering. The trap's steel jaws had imprisoned two toes. They were swollen and lacerated, but she wouldn't lose the paw (爪子)—if freed. Yet each time I moved closer, she would make a frightening growl. If I could only win her confidence, I thought. It was her only hope.Over the next few days, I divided my time between prospecting and trying to win the wolf's trust. I talked gently with her, throwing her some meat. Gradually, I kept edging closer—though I was careful to remain beyond the length of her trap chain.At dusk on the fifth day, I delivered her dinner. Suddenly, I saw a slight wagging of her tail. I moved within the length of her chain. She remained still. As a towering man, my heart was in my mouth, though. within her reach, I wrapped my blanket around myself and slowly settled onto the cold ground. It was long before I fell asleep.The next morning, I slowly placed my hand on the wolf's injured leg. Unexpectedly, she made no threatening move. Then I applied pressure, the trap sprang open, and the wolf pulled free.My experience told me the wolf would vanish into the woods quickly. But cautiously, she crept toward me and sniffed my hands and arms. This went against everything I'd ever heard about timber wolves. Yet, strangely, it all seemed so natural.1．What happened to the timber wolf?A．She was stuck in a trap.B．Her food ran out.C．Her legs were swollen.D．She was caught in the author's trap.2．What was the only hope for the wolf to be saved?A．Some food.B．The author's care.C．Her trust in the author.D．Winning the author's confidence. 3．Why was falling asleep difficult for the author?A．He was too close to the wolf.B．The ground was too cold.C．The wolf remained still.D．The wolf wagged her tail.4．How did the author feel about the outcome of the event?A．It was frightening and surprising.B．It was unexpected but natural.C．It was humorous and natural.D．It was terrifying but encouraging. B[2021·河北衡水中学模拟]The African grey parrot's ability to talk and mimic sounds makes it charming companion. African grey owners often report that their greys often times talk in context and can understand their people's emotions (情感). The African grey parrot is not just a top talker—this bird is also known for its extreme intelligence, which gives them the name “The Einsteins of the Bird World”．The bird is medium­sized, dusty­looking and almost pigeon­like. It has a bright red tail, intelligent orange eyes，and a stunning scalloped (扇形的) pattern to its feathers. Their diet in the wild consists mostly of nuts, seeds, fruits, and leafy matter.At home, African greys need plenty of toys that challenge their intelligence, such as food searching and puzzle toys. Nutri­Berries by Lafeber Company are a perfect choice，which, with a balance of grains, seeds and other nutrients in the shape of a berry，encourages African greys to hold, bite off, and even play with, just as they do in the wild.African greys seem especially affected by stress and disturbing noise in their environment and can be put more at ease by placing one corner of the cage against a wall as opposed to in the middle of a room.African grey parrots are more likely to suffer from lack of Vitamin­A/beta­carotene, and therefore benefit from eating vegetables high in beta­carotene, such as cooked sweet potato and fresh kale. Lack of Vitamin­D is another concern, especially for greys on a poor diet. Offering a balanced, pill­shaped diet, such as Nutri­Berries, helps prevent vitamin and mineral shortage.5．Why are African grey parrots called “The Einsteins of the Bird World”？A．Because of their brain size.B．Due to their talking ability.C．Owing to their rich emotions.D．On account of their intelligence.6．What can“Nutri­Berries” probably be?A．A brand of bird food.B．Puzzle toys for birds.C．A type of round fruit.D．Wild intelligence games.7．What is the characteristic of African grey parrots?A．They may get ill due to lack of Vitamin B.B．They are smart and love to have fun.C．They are dusty looking with blue eyes.D．They prefer to stay in the middle of the room.8．Where can we most probably find the passage?A．In a wildlife magazine.B．In a science fiction.C．In a travel guide.D．On a shopping website.Ⅱ.完形填空[2021·潍坊市高三模拟]As is known to all, most stories of kindness do not begin with formerly drug­addicted celebrity (名人) bad boys.

It was her only hope.”可知，只有“我”赢得它的信任，才是它唯一的希望。故选C项。A项“一些食物”和B项“作者的关心”并不能够使它摆脱捕捉器。D项“赢得作者的信任”属于曲解文意。3．A　细节理解题。根据第四段中的“I moved within the length of her chain.”以及“my heart was in my mouth”可知，“我”距离这只狼很近，心里很是害怕 ，所以久久无法入睡。故选A。B项“地上很凉”并不是他无法入睡的原因。C项“它仍然一动不动”和D项“它摇了摇尾巴”是它对作者信任的表现，也不是他久久无法入睡的原因。4．B　推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的“This went against everything I'd ever heard about timber wolves. Yet , strangely, it all seemed so natural.”可知，作者认为这只阿拉斯加森林狼对他如此亲昵的行为 完全出乎了他的预料，然而，这一切又似乎是非常自然的。故选B。A项中的“frightening”意为“令人害怕的” ，C项中“humorous”意为“幽默的”，D项“encouraging”意为“鼓舞人心的”，均不合文意。5．D　细节理解题。根据第一段中的“this bird is also known for its extreme intelligence, which gives them the name ‘The Einsteins of the Bird World’”可知，非洲灰鹦鹉得此称号的主要原因是其不同寻常的智慧。故选D。6．A　词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“Nutri­Berries by Lafeber Company are a perfect choice, which, with a balance of grains, seeds and other nutrients in the shape of a berry，...”可 知，Nutri­Berries里包含谷物种子和其他营养物。由此可知Nutri­Berries指的是鸟类的一种食物。故选A。7．B　细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The African grey parrot is not just a top talker—this bird is also known for its extreme intelligence”以及第三段中的“At home, African greys need plenty of toys that challenge their intelligence”可知，非洲灰鹦鹉非常聪明，并且喜欢玩。故选B。8．A　推理判断题。根据全文内容，尤其是第一段中的“The African grey parrot is not just a top talker—this bird is also known for its extreme intelligence, which gives them the name ‘The Einsteins of the Bird World’．”可知，本文主要介绍了一种聪明的鸟——非洲灰鹦鹉。 因此本文最可能出现在野生动物杂志上。故选A。Ⅱ.完形填空1．D　考查名词辨析。A项意为“聚会”；B项意为“友好(或仁慈、体贴)的举动”；C项意为“意外遭遇，事故”；D项意为“故事”。根据第一段中的“most stories of kindness”可知，此处指这个故事发生时，“我”和祖母正在参加一个盛大的花园聚会。故选D。2．A　考查副词辨析。A项意为“激动地，兴奋地”；B项意为“惊讶地”；C项意为“幸运地”；D项意为“成功地”。根据空格前的“this big movie star”可推知，作者见到这位电影巨星时十分激动。故选A。3．D　考查名词辨析。A项意为“花园”；B项意为“轮椅”；C项意为“明星”；D项意为“出口”。根据空格后的“after the party”可推知，聚会结束后，祖母站起身往出口走。故选D。4．C　考查动词辨析。A项意为“撕碎”；B项意为“打破”；C项意为“划破，割破”；D项意为“推”。根据空格前的“sharp ramp”可知，锋利的斜坡割破了祖母的大腿。故选C。5．B　考查动词短语辨析。A项意为“被理解，把……讲清楚”；B项意为“出现”；C项意为“准备好”；D项意为“冷静下来”。根据第五段内容可知，小罗伯特·唐尼帮助了祖母，所以此处指小罗伯特·唐尼在“我”不知所措时出现了。故选B。6．D　考查动词辨析。A项意为“买”；B项意为“租”；C项意为“借出”；D项意为“(去)拿来，(去)取来”。根据语境可知，此处表示小罗伯特·唐尼让人去取一条毯子。故选D。7．A　考查动词辨析。A项意为“(用线、绳等)系，拴，绑”；B项意为“覆盖”；C项意为“放置”；D项意为“拉，拽，扯”。根据上文可知，祖母的腿在流血，结合生活常识可知，他把自己的外套绑在祖母的腿上止血。故选A。8．D　考查副词和短语辨析。A项意为“却，反而”；B项意为“例如”；C项意为“否则”；D项意为“更确切地说，倒不如说”。根据语境可知，小罗伯特·唐尼知道如何和祖母聊天，更确切地说是如何分散她的注意力。故选D。9．C　考查动词辨析。A项意为“握手”；B项意为“挥手”；C项意为“拿着，抓住”；D项意为“按，压”。根据语境可知小罗伯特·唐尼拉着祖母的手，鼓励她。故选C。10．C　考查动词辨析。A项意为“劝说”；B项意为“出生”；C项意为“抚养”；D项意为“强迫”。根据语境可知，“我”从小被教育要尊重别人的隐私。故选C。11．A　考查动词(短语)辨析。A项意为“打扰”；B项意为“与……谈话”；C项意为“盯着，凝视”；D项意为“使烦恼，使心烦意乱，使生气”。根据空格前的“respect people's privacy”可知，“我”不会打扰一个正在吃饭的人。故选A。12．A　考查动词辨析。A项意为“放弃”；B项意为“设置”；C项意为“遵循”；D项意为“提升”。根据空格前一句“I was __10__ to respect people's privacy and never __11__ someone having a meal.”和第七段“我”对小罗伯特·唐尼说的话可知，“我”希望表达感谢，所以“我”决定放弃这个道德准则。故选A。13．A　考查名词辨析。A项意为“想法”；B项意为“麻烦”；C项意为“疑惑”；D项意为“兴趣，利益”。I don't have any idea意为“我不知道”，作为对话的开始，符合语境。故选A。14．B　考查动词(短语)辨析。A项意为“需要，(公开)要求”；B项意为“目睹”；C项意为“听说”；D项意为“表现”。根据上文可知，小罗伯特·唐尼帮助祖母时，“我”就在旁边，目睹了整个过程。故选B。15．B　考查副词或短语辨析。A项意为“然而”；B项意为“毕竟”；C项意为“因此”；D项意为“相反”。根据语境可知，每个人都应该对善意表示感谢，毕竟，感激本身就是一种善良。故选B。
