Question

【题目】

A squirrel that was nearly killed nine years ago continues to visit the family that saved,raised and later sent her into the wild.

In October 2009,a four-week-old squirrel was almost killed by an owl(猫头鹰). Luckily, a wildlife group saved her and left her in the care of Brantley Harrison and her family in South Carolina. The Harrisons often look after wild animals and later send them back into the wild.

The Harrisons named her Belle. With three other squirrels,Belle stayed in Brantley's care until spring. During her stay,Belle acted similarly to the other squirrels. In April 2010,the squirrels were sent back into the wild. Belle,however, wasn't ready to leave her human family. Within days of being sent into the wild,she started visiting them,looking for treats. Brantley said that the other squirrels also came back over the first few days,but within a week they stopped coming by and began to avoid people.

"Belle usually sits at the front door,waiting for someone to notice her. She comes almost every day," said Brantley. Her husband John often brings Belle nuts as she is usually waiting by the door for him. Actually,Belle has become a member of the family.

For nine years,she continues to visit them. Brantley said,"If Belle can teach at least one person to care for all living things, no matter how big or how small,then we have done what we have set out to."

【解析】

文章讲述的是一家人抚养一只差点被猫头鹰杀死的松鼠，并为其取名为贝拉并将其抚养长大，最后放归野外，而贝拉为了感恩，在其后的几年里都会拜访将其抚养长大的家庭。

【1】细节理解题。根据文中The Harrisons named her Belle. With three other squirrels,Belle stayed in Brantley’s care until spring. 哈里森夫妇给她取名为贝拉。和另外三只松鼠一起，贝拉一直在布兰特利家照顾到春天。可知A选项是错误的；根据文中In October 2009,a four-week-old squirrel was almost killed by an owl(猫头鹰). … The Harrisons often look after wild animals and later send them back into the wild. 2009年10月2日，一只4周大的松鼠差点被猫头鹰杀死。……哈里森一家经常照看野生动物，然后把它们送回野外。可知B选项错误；根据文中Luckily, a wildlife group saved her and left her in the care of Brantley Harrison and her family in South Carolina. The Harrisons often look after wild animals and later send them back into the wild. 幸运的是，一个野生动物组织救了她，把她交给南卡罗来纳州的布兰特利·哈里森和她的家人照顾。哈里森一家经常照看野生动物，然后把它们送回野外。可知C选项正确；根据文中Belle usually sits at the front door, waiting for someone to notice her. She comes almost every day.贝尔通常坐在前门，等待有人注意到她。她几乎每天都来。可知D选项错误，故选C。

【2】主旨大意题。根据文中第四段的内容理解及文中Actually, Belle has become a member of the family.实际上，贝拉已经成为这个家庭的一员。可知本段讲述的是Belle已经成为家庭中的成员，故选B。

【3】最佳标题题。根据文章内容及文章开头A squirrel that was nearly killed nine years ago continues to visit the family that saved, raised and later sent her into the wild.可知，文章介绍的是一只差点被猫头鹰杀死的松鼠，并为其取名为贝拉并将其抚养长大最后放归野外，而贝拉为了感恩，在其后的几年里都会去拜访将其抚养长大的家庭，因此最好的题目应该是D选项，一只松鼠和她的人类家庭，故选D。

阅读理解中有关最佳标题的题目要根据全文的理解来判断，一般的故事梗概在文章的开头或者结尾都会有所交代。所以这类题目大多数都看文章开头和结尾来确定。本文的开头就指出了：一只9年前差点被杀的松鼠继续探望拯救、抚养和后来把她送到野外的家人。所以这篇文章就是主要围绕开头展开描写的。所以文章的标题就很容易确定了。
