Question

On the Iraq-Syria border, a pack of wild dogs circled a group of American soldiers for food. The 1 of the pack was a gray-and-white dog. The soldiers 2 him Nubs. Nubs was shaking and 3  able to stand. Marine major Brian Dennis looked closer and saw that there was a knife wound 4 his chest.

      Dennis couldn’t 5 seeing the dog suffer. He and his men immediately treated the wound, and gave Nubs oral medicine. Nubs pulled through but was still 6. The next day, the team had to leave. Ten days later, Dennis’s unit was back and so was Nubs. He was still 7, but the men fed him and played with him.

   Before long the unit once again 8 an outpost (前哨) 70 miles away. Nubs, slowly but 9 tracked them far into the trackless wasteland until the men lost 10 of him. Two days later, beyond Dennis’s 11, he saw Nubs just outside the outpost. The dog had 12 him across 70 miles of frozen desert to meet the friend who had saved his life. From then on Nubs and the men slept in the same place, and ran around in the same ruins.

   Until a(n) 13 came down from above that they should not be allowed to have pets, Dennis decided to make sure the dog 14 continue to live the good life. So he quickly 15 $4,000 from his family and friends to fly Nubs to 16.

   A month later, when Dennis and the dog were 17 in California, at first Nubs didn’t recognize the guy. 18 within seconds , the dog flew into Dennis’s arms, 19 up again and again to lick his friend’s face.

   A little care and concern in the middle of war will not save a 20 world. But small stories, like the story of a soldier and a dog, hold a promise of a harmonious world.

【解析】

試題分析：本文講述了一位名叫Dennis的士兵在伊拉克和敘利亞邊界的地方救了一只受傷的狗，經(jīng)過醫(yī)治漸漸的恢復，當這名士兵隨部隊離開的時候，這只狗跟著他們的足跡一直跟隨在后面，當上級規(guī)定部隊不允許養(yǎng)寵物的時候，Dennis以把狗送到了美國，一年之后，他們在加利福尼亞相見了，這只狗非常親熱的添著Dennis的臉。故事講述了一個小道理，也許在戰(zhàn)爭的中期一點關懷不能拯救一個充滿暴力的世界，但是像這樣的小故事給了人一個和諧世界的希望。

1.B考查名詞詞義。句意為：在伊拉克和敘利亞的邊界，一群狗圍著一隊美國士兵正在尋找食物。領頭是一只灰白相見的狗，此處是指領頭的狗。guider n 指導者，導游；leader        n 領導者，領袖，指揮者；major n 成年人，主修科目；helper n 助手，幫手。故答案應為B。

2.A 考查動詞詞義與辨析。 句意為：士兵們把這只領頭的狗叫這Nubs。called vt call sb /sth sth 把某人或某人喚作----；said vt 說；told vt 告訴；spoke vt 講話。由句意可知，此處應是把這只狗喚作Nubs。                                                                                                                                           

3.C 考查副詞詞義及辨析。Nubs渾身顫抖幾乎不能站立。Dennis走向前去看見了他的胸前有一處刀傷。mostly adv 主要地，多半地；certainly adv當然地，必定地；barely adv 僅僅，勉強，幾乎不; clearly adv 清楚地，清晰地。此處表否定，幾乎不能站立，故答案應為C。

4.A 考查介詞的用法。句意為：胸部有一處刀傷，固定結(jié)構(gòu)in the chest. 故答案應為A。

5.B 考查動詞詞義。句意為：Dennis不能忍受看見Nubs所受的痛苦。Dennis和他的隊友立刻治療他的創(chuàng)傷，給他吃了一些口服藥。help vt幫助; stand vt 忍受；admitvt 承認；avoid vt 避免。Dennis不忍心去看，故答案為B。

6.D 考查介詞短語的含義及語境。句意為：盡管Nubs度過了難關，但是他仍然很痛苦。in vain白費地，徒勞地； in danger 處在危險中 ；in surprise 驚奇地；in pain 痛苦，從下文可知他還很虛弱，可知這里應是還在痛苦中，故答案為D。

7.A 考查形容詞詞義及語境的理解。句意為：十天之后，Dennis和他的團隊回來了，Nubs也回來了，他身體仍然很弱，Dennis和他的隊友喂了他還陪他一起玩兒。weak adj 差地，虛弱地；sad adj 悲哀地，難過地；alive adj 活著的；alone adj 單獨地，獨自地。故答案應為A。

8.C 考查動詞短語的含義。句意為：不久之后，Dennis和他的團隊不得不再次去七十英里外的前哨。made up 彌補，編造，化妝；returned from 從---地方回來；left for動身去某個地方； took over 接管，接收。此處表示動身去某個地方，故答案應為C。

9.B 考查副詞詞義。句意為：Nubs走得很慢，但很決然地跟著他們走了很遠，走到了人跡罕至的不毛之地。aimlessly adv 漫無目的地，無目標地；determinedly adv 決然地，斷然地；unhappily adv 不高興地；carefully adv 仔細地，小心地。由題意答案為B。

10.C 考查名詞的詞義。句意為：Nubs走到了人跡罕至的地方，直到士兵們消失在他的視野里。touch n  接觸，觸覺；footprint n 足跡，腳�。籹ight n 視野，視力；control n 控制，管理。由題意答案為C.

11.A 考查名詞的詞義。句意為：超出了Dennis 的想象，Nubs出現(xiàn)在了前哨的外面.Imagination n 想象，設想；ability n能力；understanding n 理解力；power n 力量，權力。此處表示出乎意料的意思。

12.D 考查動詞詞義。句意為：這只狗跟隨著他穿越了七十英里的冰冷的的荒漠來見曾經(jīng)救過他一命的老朋友。saved vt 拯救；shown vt 顯示；found vt 發(fā)現(xiàn)； followed vt 伴隨，跟隨。答案應為D。

13.D考查名詞詞義。句意為：從上面下達了一條命令，（所有士兵）都不得養(yǎng)寵物.文中有above上面，下文中“不允許”等意思可知，應是上面發(fā)布了命令。Signal n 信號，符號；project n 工程，項目；plan n 計劃，安排；order n 命令。故答案應為D。

【小題 14】B 考查情態(tài)動詞的用法。Dennis必須確保這只狗會繼續(xù)過著幸福的生活。need需要；不符合題意；would 會，將會；might 也許；從文中可知這只狗本來都是很幸福的，有人在照顧他。should 應該，從道理上，理所應該之意，因此不符合題意。故答案應為B。

14.C 考查動詞的詞義。句意為：Dennis很塊地從他的家人和朋友那里募集了4000美元。從下文看是讓狗去一個好的地方，缺少錢，所以應為募集錢。rose vt 升起，上升；arose vt 出現(xiàn)，引發(fā)；raised vt 舉起，使上升；募集，募捐；飼養(yǎng)；aroused vt 喚醒。故答案為C。

15.B 考查文章的理解，上下文的聯(lián)系。從下文中的加來福尼亞California可知，就是把狗送往了美國。Britain 英國；America       美國；Iraq 伊拉克；Syria 敘利亞。故答案為B。

16.A 考查動詞詞義。句意為：一個月之后，當Nubs和Dennis在加利福尼亞再次相聚的時候----。reunited vt 使相聚，使結(jié)合；recalled         vt回想起，記起；restored vt 修復，恢復健康reminded vt 提醒，使想起。故答案為A。

17.C 考查連詞的用法。句意為：當Nubs和Dennis剛相見的時候，Nubs認不出了Dennis，但是一小會兒的功夫，Nubs就沖進了Dennis的懷抱。此處表示轉(zhuǎn)折的意思。故答案應為C。So        因此；And 順承關系；But 轉(zhuǎn)折關系，但是；Then 然后，接著。

18.A考查動詞的詞義。句意為：狗一次又一次的跳起來，去添著Dennis的臉。（在和他親熱）。jumping vt 跳，跳起      ；climbing vt 爬，攀登；cheering vt 歡呼，活躍（cheer up 振奮起來，和后面的again and again意思不搭配）；bringing vt 帶來。故答案為A。

19.D 考查形容詞的詞義。句意為：在戰(zhàn)爭中一個小小的關懷和關心不能挽救一個暴力的世界，但也能給人一個和諧世界的希望。peaceful adj 和平的，安靜的；competitive 有競爭力的；fantastic極好的，奇異的；violent adj暴力的，血腥的。故答案為D。
