13、s and studied their responses.They were surprised to find that the animals were able to pick out their own kids voices.”可知，来自伦敦大学的研究人员对母山羊播放小羊的叫声，并研究他们的反应。他们惊讶地发现，这些动物能够分辨出自己孩子的声音。所以画线单词“bleats”是voices“声音”的意思。故B项正确。2D细节理解题。由第三段“A mother and the kid rely a lot on smell to recognize one another and，in
14、 the wild，during the first week of their livesIn fact，this was the case for deer ”可知，在小羊出生的第一周，在野外时，羊妈妈和小羊依靠气味来彼此识别对方。事实上鹿也是这种情况。所以在小鹿出生的几天内，母鹿和小鹿躲在草丛里，主要靠气味来辨认对方。故D项正确。3A细节理解题。由第四段“Hearing the voice of their own kids，the females would look towards the speaker that the sound was coming from，moving a
15、round and calling in response.”可知，听到自己孩子的声音时，母羊会看着来自扬声器的声音，四处走动，并以叫声做出回应。所以在实验中，母羊听到自己孩子的声音时，会以声音回应。故A项正确。4C推理判断题。由最后一段“Farmers might be able to change their way to raise goats considering this natural behaviour.”可知，考虑到羊的这种自然行为，农民也许可以改变他们养羊的方式。所以判断出，这篇短文主要是写给农民，供他们阅读的。故C项正确。阅读加油站pick out 挑选出strategy

34、 no rainforest, no animals, no drugs.【语篇解读】本文为记叙文，主要介绍了黛西乘坐飞毯去了解野生动物的故事。1endangered考查形容词。句意：她总是盼望着帮助濒临灭绝的野生动物物种。此处修饰species这个名词，所以用形容词，故填endangered。2woke考查时态。分析句子可知此处填谓语，根据found可知此处用过去时，所以填woke。3places考查名词复数。句意：飞毯带着黛西去了很多地方。many修饰名词复数，所以填places。4where考查关系副词。句意：飞毯带她去了一个野生动物保护区。分析句子可知“there was a wild
35、life protection zone”作定语，修饰place，从句缺地点状语，所以应该用关系副词where。5an考查冠词。句意：她遇到一头大象。elephant是以元音开头，且为单数，所以用不定冠词an。6without考查介词。句意：她得知大象过去被无情地猎杀。表示“无情”可知用介词without。7laughter考查词形转化。句意：黛西突然笑起来。burst into 后加名词，所以填laughter。8rubbing考查现在分词。句意：黛西看到一只猴子在擦自己的身体。分析句子可知本句有谓语met，所以rub要用非谓语，monkey与rub是主动关系，所以用rubbing。9more考查形容词比较级。句意：猴子要求黛西以后更多地关注雨林。分析句子可知是和过去相比，要用比较级，所以填more。10fully考查词形转化。句意：最后，黛西完全明白了没有雨林，就没有动物，就没有药物的意义。此处修饰understood，所以用副词fully。
