Question

Hello! My name is Lisa, and I am a lioness. I live on the open grasslands of Africa with my family. Lions living in a group are called a pride.

My father is strong and powerful. He and his cousin are the leaders of our pride. The other members are my mother, her sisters, and their children.

The area where a pride lives is big! We roar (咆哮) to tell each other where we are and to warn strangers to stay away.

Come to meet my new baby brother. His name is Leon. See the spots on his fur? We lions are born spotted or striped (有條紋的). As we grow older, the spots gradually disappear.

Lionesses usually spend their entire lives with their birth pride, but Leon will leave when he is about three years old. He’ll run around with a male (雄性的) friend or relative for a few years until they take over a pride of their own.

But for now, we have lots of fun together. We often play and fight for hours, which can help us practice skills that we will need for hunting.

We lions keep ourselves very clean. Just like a house cat, I clean my fur with my tongue. We clean for each other, too, to show we’re friends.

Lions like to sleep for most of the day. We hunt in the cool evening. Female (雌性的) lions hunt more often than male lions. We work together as a team. At the right moment, we attack and kill our prey. Then we share it. Male lions usually eat first. Females eat next. Baby lions are the last to eat. The smallest one gets the least food.

Since we are full, it’s time to go to find a nice place for a sleep. Bye!

【解析】試題分析：文章大意：本文介紹了獅子的特征和生活習(xí)性。

1.1】B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段I live on the open grasslands of Africa with my family.很容易得知答案選B、Lisa來(lái)自非洲。

2.2】A 猜測(cè)詞義題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段“prey”所在的句子，we attack and kill our prey.很容易猜出“prey”是指“獵物”。所以A正確。

3.3】D 正誤判斷題。根據(jù)句子We clean for each other, too.可知A項(xiàng)正確。根據(jù)句子We often play and fight for hours, which can help us practice skills that we will need for hunting. 可知B項(xiàng)正確。根據(jù)句子We hunt in the cool evening. 可知C項(xiàng)正確。根據(jù)句子The smallest one gets the least food.可知D項(xiàng)不正確。所以答案選D。

4.4】C 作者意圖題。根據(jù)全文Lisa的敘述，她是只母獅子，她有自己的父母，兄弟姐妹，經(jīng)常跟她的小弟弟玩。所以可以推斷這篇文章是寫給孩子們的。所以答案選C。

5.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第五段句子Leon will leave when he is about three years old.可知C正確。
