题目内容
7.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(兽医)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."

分析 本文讲述的是当浑身是泥、精疲力竭的瑞士几名极限运动员在徒步穿越厄瓜多尔雨林的途中,准备坐下来吃东西时,遇到了一条流浪狗.其中的一名队员 Mikael Lindnord可怜它,给了它吃的以后,这条流浪狗就开始跟着他们.在 Lindnord一行四人参加的这项430英里探险越野世界锦标赛进行到还剩两个环节的时候,他们和这只流浪狗成为了朋友,并给它取名Arthur.即便是队员们考虑到它的安全想要和它分开的时候,它仍然不离不弃.当队员们发现这条狗累的时候,他们就停下来休息;当它陷到泥里的时候,他们就把它拉出来;六天后探险赛结束的时候,这条流浪狗也吃了不少苦头,尽管当他们还在南美洲的时候就已经给它做了检查,队员们还是决定带它去看兽医.后来Lindnord想这次经历之后他们绝不会再舍弃Arthur了,便决定收养它并带它回瑞典.于是他向瑞典农业局递交了申请,最终他们乘机带着Arthur顺利回到了家.Lindnord最后写道:"我来厄瓜多尔是为了赢得锦标赛的,但没想到我同时还得到了一个新朋友."
解答 答案21D 细节理解题 根据第二段"…but as the team stood up to continue their race the animal started to follow them-and he didn't stop.但当他们整理队伍继续前行的时候,流浪狗却没想要离开的意思,并开始跟着他们."可知,碰到这条流浪狗之后,由于它跟着队员们,不愿意离开,所以应该是一起继续参加探险赛了.故选B
22A 细节理解题 根据第五段"Even when the team tried to get rid of their new member out of concerns for his safety…即便是队员们考虑到它的安全想要和它分开的时候,它仍然不离不弃.…"可知,由于队员们担心它的安全,所以才试图和它分开.故选A
23A 主旨大意题 本文主要讲述了运动员们与一条流浪狗一起探险的故事,所以本题应该从他们之间的关系以及他们对待这条流浪狗的态度来分析.根据第三段"Even when the team tried to get rid of their new member out of concerns for his safety…when he was tired they stopped for a break and when he got stuck in the mud they pulled him out."出于对它的安全考虑,队员们不想让它跟着一起参加探险赛;…当他们发现这条狗累的时候,他们就停下来休息,当它陷到泥里的时候,他们就把它拉出来;以及第五段"the dog had suffered.They therefore decided to take him to a vet(兽医)while still in South America to have him checked out.这条流浪狗吃尽了苦头,他们决定带它去看兽医,尽管当他们还在南美洲的时候就已经给它做了检查."所以从这两段来看,队员们对这条狗很友好也很关心.故选A
24C 主旨大意题 从文章中我们可以推断出:A那条狗因为在探险赛中受了苦而感到悲伤.(文中只描述了这条流浪狗吃尽了苦头,并没有提到它悲伤)B队员们赢得了多次世界冠军.(文中没有提到)C lindord为能照顾这条狗感到非常高兴.D由于把Arthur(狗)带到了机场,队员们很紧张.(根据倒数第二段可知,他们紧张的原因是担心申请批不下来,而不能收养Arthur,故D不正确);另外,根据本文的中心思想即队员们尤其是lindord 对狗的关心与照顾,以及文章最后两段中提到lindord决定想收养它并称它为新朋友,可知C正确,故选C
