Answer 1

答案：A;C;B;A;D;C;B;D;B;C
解析：

整体把握：很多人喜欢把狗当作宠物，但很久以前狗是野生动物。第一批野生狗大约在10000年以前被欧洲人驯化，这些狗不像现在这个模样，它们可能更像狼。这些狗经常偷吃人类的食物。一些幼犬被人类收养长大，能够在多个方面帮助人类，比如：帮助人类狩猎；比人类早嗅到或听到危险信号；寒冷的夜晚，狗会帮人类取暖，因此养狗是很有用途的。现在狗的种类有很多，同时它们看上去各不相同。自古以来狗就是人类的朋友，我们应该保护狗。 (1) 点拨：此题考查推理判断。狗是野生狗驯化而来，根据上下文句意，这里是指第一批野狗，应该选A项。 (2) 点拨：此题考查推理判断。狗是人类驯化而来的，这里使用了被动句，were trained by因而选humans。 (3) 点拨：这里是由what引导的宾语从句，做介词like的宾语。 (4) 点拨：当野狗饥饿时只能是偷吃人类的食物，to steal some food作目的状语。 (5) 点拨：本文的中心内容讲述的就是dogs，故A、B、C项均不合题意。 (6) 点拨：这四个选项都引导时间状语从句，A项的意思是“当……的时候”，B项的意思是“在……以后”，D项的意思是“一……就……”，根据上下文，只有C项与题意相符。 (7) 点拨：固定句式keep sb.＋形容词。A、B、C、D四项虽都是形容词，但此句意为狗帮人类在寒冷的夜里取暖，故A、C、D项不符合题意。 (8) 点拨：通过上文的介绍，我们可以得知养狗对人类很有好处，A困难；B无用；C容易，这三项与文章的意思不相符。 (9) 点拨：通过理解前后句意，这两句话应该是并列句，故应该选and。其他的三个词分别有不同程度的转折词义。 (10) 点拨：既然狗是我们人类忠实的朋友，此时我们应该“保护”它们，故选取protect最为恰当。
