　　1.【答案】A

　　【解析】根据下一句及随后的内容，作者讲的是怎样成为动物爱好者的(从小就喜欢动物)，应当选择A.how。

　　2.【答案】C

　　【解析】in the first place是固定短语,意思是“首先”。此句意思是：别人经常问到的问题之一，是当初我是如何爱上动物的。

　　3.【答案】A

　　【解析】这句话的意思是：作者在呀呀学语之时,最早发清楚的音是“zoo”(动物园),而不是“妈妈”,“爸爸”,因此,应选clarity“清晰”。填入其他选项emotion (感情),sentiment(多愁善感),affection(友爱)不合逻辑。

　　4.【答案】B

　　【解析】but在此处连接另一个句子(it was the word“zoo”,“it was”被省略)，表示转折，意为“而是”，Except,except for,but for的用法接近，表示“除了……”。

　　例如：

　　We go there every day except Sunday.

　　He answered all the questions except for the last one.

　　For a year the dam remained complete but for the generators.

　　从意思上，逻辑上，都应当选but。

　　5.【答案】D

　　【解析】根据后面的over and over again,应选“repeat”

　　6.【答案】C

　　【解析】小孩想去动物园,便不停地发出尖叫声,故选“voice”。A shrill voice与scream的意思接近。volume(音量);noise(噪音);pitch(音调)均不合要求。

　　7.【答案】B

　　【解析】shut sb.up是指让某人住口，为了让孩子停止尖叫，只好带他去动物园。

　　8.【答案】A

　　【解析】根据后面主句的时态，此处只能用一般过去时。

　　9.【答案】C

　　【解析】a great many后直接跟可数名词的复数形式;a great / large amount of后跟不可数名词;只有a great /large number of后可以跟可数名词的复数形式。

　　例如:

　　I read a great many English books.

　　A large amount of money is spent on tobacco every year.

　　A great number of civilians were murdered in cold blood.

　　10.【答案】D

　　【解析】living后必须接介词in，意为“居住”;cultivating耕种;reclaiming开垦;只有exploring有探察的意思。

　　11.【答案】C

　　【解析】add to相当于increase，增加。其余选项后面都不接to。

　　12.【答案】A

　　【解析】later on为固定短语，“后来”。

　　13.【答案】D

　　【解析】attendant仆人;keeper可理解为“饲养员”，但是a student keeper容易被误解为“收留学生的人”;aide有“助手”之义。作者一边上学，一边在动物园里打工，只能当助手。

　　14.【答案】D

　　【解析】which在此引导定语从句，修饰前面列出的动物。

　　15.【答案】D

　　【解析】因为钱是在动物园打工挣的，选successfully更能体现其含义。

　　16.【答案】D

　　【解析】finance my first trip意为“支付我的旅行

　　费用”;pay后应接介词for;其他选项的意思相差甚远。

　　17.【答案】B

　　【解析】此句为现在完成进行时态,选regularly比较贴切。

　　18.【答案】D

　　【解析】此句是由though引导的让步状语从句，应与主句意思相对立。选项中，sorrows和disappointments与主句的appeal to相对立，但sorrows的分量太重。

　　19.【答案】C

　　【解析】appeal to为成语，意思是“吸引”。

　　20.【答案】B

　　【解析】excursion短途旅行;journey(从一地到另一地的)长距离，具体的旅途;travel旅行，旅游，海外旅行;trip旅行，远足。
