A. peopleB. childrenC. ladiesD. women【解析】选A。逻辑推理题。四个选项均为表示人的名词, 根据空白后came to live in Hong Kong的语境判断, 到香港
9、来定居的是各种人, 故填集体名词people。2. A. asB. sinceC. thoughD. because【解析】选C。逻辑推理题。空白后的从句与其前的主句是让步关系, 故填连词though, 引导一个让步状语从句。3. A. desertsB. shadesC. fieldsD. woods【解析】选D。逻辑推理题。四个选项的名词填入空白都可以作宾语补足语, 但是只有填入表示“树林”的woods, 才能与上文中covered in trees的语境相吻合。4. A. thinB. thickC. shortD. dying【解析】选B。背景常识题。根据常识, 大象、老虎、猴子及其他
10、野生动物, 通常生活在具有隐蔽条件的茂密的森林里, 故填thick。5. A. riversB. hillsC. skyD. mountains【解析】选A。背景常识题。根据常识, 鳄鱼属水生动物。四个选项的名词, 只有rivers符合鳄鱼生活的条件, 故选A。6. A. fromB. nearC. inD. outside【解析】选C。固定搭配题。live表示“居住”“生活”, 是不及物动词, 表示住在某处, 其后要加介词in。7. A. buyB. sellC. harvestD. grow【解析】选D。逻辑推理题。四个选项均为及物动词, 根据句意, 早先的农民排干山谷, 其目的是种稻和养
11、猪养鸡, 故填grow, 表示“种植”。8. A. plantedB. looked afterC. cared forD. cut down【解析】选D。逻辑推理题。由空白后并列的谓语动词burnt, 可以确定此空应填动词短语cut down, 表示“砍倒”。9. A. coldB. coolC. warmD. hot【解析】选C。逻辑推理题。“keep+名词/代词(作宾语)+形容词(作宾语补足语)”是一个keep带复合宾语的句型, 表示“使继续保持某种状态”。空白后的介词短语in winter表明, 此空应填形容词warm, keep warm是“取暖”的意思。10. A. gentleB
12、. usefulC. safeD. dangerous【解析】选D。逻辑推理题。空白前的动词短语keep away from表明, 人们砍树取火的一个目的是赶走危险的动物, 免受其袭击和伤害。11. A. airB. foodC. waterD. clothes【解析】选B。逻辑推理题。上文“Theythe trees and burnt them. ”已暗示出, 原先的森林里已没有充足的食物供大象吃。12. A. neverB. alwaysC. noD. no longer【解析】选D。逻辑推理题。上文已经叙述了农民伐木烧树, 导致许多野生动物因没有充足的食物而灭绝。此空填no longe
13、r表示“不再”是拿现在和以前相比。下文表明, 人们认为香港除了在动物园里不再有任何动物是一种错误认识。13. A. freeB. busyC. bigD. large【解析】选B。逻辑推理题。空白后作状语表示伴随情况的介词短语“with so many cars and buildings”, 说明了香港是一个十分繁华的城市, 此空应填busy, 意为“繁华的”。14. A. no moreB. nearlyC. stillD. hardly【解析】选C。逻辑推理题。由于有许多汽车和高楼大厦, 给人的错觉是香港不会有任何野生动物。由But所表示的转折意义及下文“there are still
14、about thirty-six different kinds of animals living there”可以判断出在香港和新界, 仍然有着供动物生存的乡村, 故此空应填表示持续状态的副词still。15. A. animalsB. plantsC. fishesD. birds【解析】选A。逻辑推理题。四个选项均为表示动植物的名词, 填在空白处都能作介词of的宾语, 但句中表语the barking deer说明, 此空应填animals。16. A. greaterB. largerC. smallerD. heavier【解析】选C。逻辑推理题。吠叫鹿看起来像鹿, 但体形却比鹿小
15、得多, 这一点是可以根据下文“They are less than two feet high. ”做出正确判断。17. A. noiseB. voiceC. songD. living【解析】选A。逻辑推理题。由空白后作状语的介词短语like a dog barking. 可以判断出, 此空应填noise。make a noise是固定的动词短语, 此处意为“高声叫”。18. A. barkingB. eatingC. plantingD. hiding【解析】选D。逻辑推理题。上文叙述了吠叫鹿生活在茂密的灌木丛中, 再由下文“This is when you are most likely
16、 to see one but you will need to be very quiet and to have very sharp. ”可以判断出此空应填hiding, 表示吠叫鹿非常擅长躲藏。19. A. earsB. eyesC. mouthsD. noses【解析】选B。逻辑推理题。四个选项均为表示人体部位的名词, 填入空白处都可以作动词have的宾语, 但根据上文“They eat grass and shrubs, and go outside mainly in the very early morning and late afternoon and evening. T
17、his is when you are most likely to see one. . . ”这一语境判断, 此空应填eyes。20. A. neighbourB. brotherC. enemyD. friend【解析】选C。逻辑推理题。四个选项均为单数可数名词, 填在空白处语法都正确, 但根据下文“Although it is illegal, people hunt and trap these harmless little animals. ”可以判断出, 人类是吠叫鹿的唯一敌人, 故此空应填enemy。. 短文改错假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文, 请你修改你同桌写的以
