Question

Exhausted，covered in mud and desperately hungry，a team of Swedish athletes sat down for a meal as they prepared to take on a dangerous 20-mile trek through the Ecuadorian rainforest．

As they opened their canned meat，a tired Mikael Lindnord noticed a miserable stray dog staring at him out of the corner of his eye．

Feeling sorry for him，he fed the dog a meatball and thought nothing of it，but as the team stood up to continue their race the animal started to follow them—and he didn’t stop．

As the group of four navigated the final two stages of the 430-mile Adventure Racing World Championship，the dog befriended them and was eventually given the name Arthur．

Every tiring task the team face，Arthur would do the same．He swam alongside them while they kayaked down rivers，dragged himself up hills during hikes and pulled through knee—deep mud during treks．

Even when the team tried to get rid of their new member out of concerns for his safety—he refused to leave．This meant when he was tired they stopped for a break and when he got stuck in the mud they pulled him out．

After six days the team finished the race，and the dog had suffered．They therefore decided to take him to a vet(獸醫(yī))while still in South America to have him checked out．

During that time Lindord thought to himself that after their experience，they could not leave Arthur，so he decided to adopt him and take him back to Sweden．He applied to the Swedish Board of Agriculture and was made to wait to see if his application was successful．After a tense few days，the team arrived at the airport with Arthur and boarded the plane with him back home．

Lindord said：“I came to Ecuador to win the World Championship．Instead，I got a new friend．”

1.After meeting the dog，the team ______________．

A．a(chǎn)bandoned the dog immediately

B．fed the dog with enough food

C．a(chǎn)dopted the dog for convenience

D．continued the race with the dog

A．They were concerned about his safety．

B．They couldn’t afford the race with him．

C．The dog was a burden to the team．

D．The dog couldn’t follow the team successfully．

3.Which of the following can best describe the team?

A．Friendly and caring． B．Helpful and generous．

C．Risky and harsh． D．Cautious and sensitive．

4.What can we infer from the text？

【解析】

試題分析：瑞士極限運(yùn)動(dòng)員馬克爾在參加探險(xiǎn)越野世界錦標(biāo)賽的途中喂食一只偶遇的流浪狗后，這只流浪狗為感恩和隊(duì)員們一起走完了包含各種殘酷條件的430英里（700公里）越野賽，賽后流浪狗成功被馬克爾收養(yǎng)。

1.he fed the dog a meatball and thought nothing of it，but as the team stood up to continue their race the animal started to follow them—and he didn’t stop．及第六段中Even when the team tried to get rid of their new member out of concerns for his safety—he refused to leave．可知，在馬克爾喂了這只狗一個(gè)肉丸后，這只狗就開始跟著他們。為了它的安全，趕它走，它也不走。故該題正確答案為D.

2.Even when the team tried to get rid of their new member out of concerns for his safety可知，隊(duì)員們盡力去擺脫他們的新隊(duì)員（這只狗）是出于對(duì)它的安全的考慮。故該題正確答案為A.

3.A．Friendly and caring．友好的、有愛心的；B．Helpful and generous．樂于助人的、慷慨的；C．Risky and harsh．大膽的、嚴(yán)厲的；D．Cautious and sensitive．謹(jǐn)慎的、敏感的易受影響的；根據(jù)文章所提到的細(xì)節(jié)：給這只狗喂肉丸、為了它的安全而試圖擺脫它、帶它去看獸醫(yī)以及最后收養(yǎng)它，這些都體現(xiàn)了友好和愛心，故該題正確答案為A.

4.推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后一段中的he decided to adopt him and take him back to Sweden．及Lindord said：“I came to Ecuador to win the World Championship．Instead，I got a new friend．”可推知，Lindord非常的高興——和亞瑟成為朋友。故該題正確答案為C
