Question

【題目】 The cub(幼獸)learned quickly. If he met mother hen he would become angry, remembering the pecks on his nose from his first day out of a cave.

Famine came again and for a while, neither mother or cub had anything to eat. Then one day, She-wolf brought home some meat! It was strange stuff, different from anything the cub had smelled or tasted before. And it was for him! Little could he know that his mother had taken the left fork by the stream, by the lair of the lynx(山貓巢穴), and stolen kitten. As he finished his meal, he heard his mother snarling(咆哮)in strange and terrible way. He shivered with fear.

The lynx was mad with anger at the loss of her child and she had tracked She-wolf to her cave.

In the glare of the afternoon light, the lynx crouched at the cave entrance. A coarse scream left no doubt what she meant to do. The cub and his mother were trapped!

The lynx threw herself inside the cave, and She-wolf leaped upon her.

Snarling and howling, the two mothers fought like crazy, the lynx pulling and tearing with her teeth and claws, She-wolf using her teeth alone.

Seeing his mother in such danger, the cub sank his teeth into the wild cat’s leg. Although he didn’t know it, this is probably what saved their lives. The lynx beat at the cub, tearing his shoulder, but he had slowed her down. After a brief, cruel fight, She-wolf put an end to her once and for all.

They had won, but at a price.

The cub licked his mother’s wounds. He knew she was weak and sick. For a week she never left the cave.

Then at last, her strength returned and she was ready to hunt again. This time, the cub went with her. She-wolf noticed a change in her child. He had complete faith in himself from their victory over the lynx. They had fought a wild cat and lived!

The cub now knew another law of the wild-eat or to be eaten: kill or to be killed.

【解析】

這是一篇記敘文。母狼幼崽和它母親共同力戰(zhàn)尋仇而來的山貓，最終取得了勝利。幼崽由此體會(huì)到了叢林的生存法則：吃或被吃，殺或被殺。

【1】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段“...remembering the pecks on his nose from his first day out of a cave.”如果他遇到母雞，他會(huì)生氣的，想起他第一天從山洞里出來時(shí)鼻子上的啄痕�？赏浦�，幼崽曾經(jīng)被母雞襲擊過，故選A項(xiàng)。

【2】

詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)第四段最后一句“The cub and his mother were trapped!”可知，幼崽和它的母親被困在了洞里，說明the lynx(山貓)藏在洞穴入口等待母狼和它的幼崽，所以“crouched”的意思是“躲藏”。故選C項(xiàng)。

【3】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第五段“Seeing his mother in such danger, the cub sank his teeth into the wild cat’s leg. Although he didn’t’ know it, this is probably what saved their lives.”可知，幼崽看到母親處于如此危險(xiǎn)的境地，就咬住了山貓的腿。這招可能救了它和它母親的命，所以是幼崽咬了山貓的腿幫助它們贏得這場(chǎng)戰(zhàn)斗。故選B項(xiàng)。

【4】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段“She-wolf noticed change in her child. He had complete faith in himself from their victory over the lynx.”可知，幼崽從對(duì)山貓的勝利中贏得了對(duì)自己的信心，故選D項(xiàng)。
