1、根据第2空后的in the water可以排除另外三个选项。
2、因为十分喜欢游泳，所以有乐趣。
3、根据后面的to go in这一带to的不定式短语也可以排除另外三个选项。get sb. to do sth.“让某人做某事”。
4、did用以加强语气，正好回应前一句。
5、remind sb. of sth.意为“使人想起某事”。
6、when引导定语从句修饰that night。
7、“没人知道，它从多远的地方弄来的箱子”。此句用来补充说明somewhere，由have a race也可推测此处指距离。far“远”；long“长”；old“老，旧”；heavy“重”。
8、could easily强调是狗本身一种属性，一种能力。因为Rex是条狗，善于奔跑，且有股蛮劲，所以这件事对它来说“可能”很容易。
9、主人最终还是将其扔掉了，可见其“无价值”。priceless“无价的，极贵重的”；valuable“有价值的”。
10、从后面主人又将其扔掉来看，这只破箱子是被人“遗弃的”，是没用的箱子。
11、前后是因果关系。only if“发果”；in case“假如”；even if“即使”，均不合题意。
12、下面一句有it sounded，所以用heard。
13、后面描述的动作与实际情况完全相反，故选as if，表达一种虚拟语气。
14、tear the house down意为“拆房子”。
15、由上文“we __12__ him trying to get the box up onto the porch”可知，狗就在门厅，所以打开那儿的灯。porch/pt/ n. “门廊”。
16、catch意为“被钩住”，这是狗拖不动箱子的主要原因。
17、由于主人知道狗的蛮劲，故推测如果没人帮它，它会拨弄箱子“一直到”天亮，即到主人起身发现这一切时。till“直到”。
18、由下文可知，箱子如果扔“近”一些，Rex又会捡回来的。
19、after all “毕竟”，表达一种让步的口吻。in all“总共”，as a result “因此”，at last“最后，终于”。
20、从狗喜欢表现自己拖动重物的本领来分析，它对自己这方面的能力是引以为“自豪的”。tired“累的”；ashamed“羞耻的”；doubtful “怀疑的”。

Scientists have recently discovered that animals that live in groups, such as elephants, foxes, and wolves, are more likely to follow rules. If they don't, and each does its own thing, the group will probably break apart. Group members would be forced to live alone, and would have a harder time hunting and raising their young. That's probably why a traveling wolf pack was seen stopping and waiting for its limping (跛行的) leader to catch up. Similar social ties are believed to be responsible for a captive elephant saving her friend from drowning.
Sometimes, though, animals try their best to do what's right, even when there's nothing in it for them. Nobody knows exactly why. “It might simply feel good to be kind, just as it does for humans，” says Bekoff. If your friend wasn't nice to you, what would you do? Maybe you would just walk away. That's exactly what a wild red fox did when she was playing boxing with another fox.
Toby was a generous cat. For ten years, the kind kitty shared his food with a spaniel (长耳狗) named Katie. After supper, owner Linda Gustafson always divided up the table scraps. She'd drop some in Katie's bowl on the floor and some in Toby's dish on the kitchen counter. Gustafson kept the cat's dish up high to keep Katie from stealing Toby's treats. As it turned out, Katie didn't need to steal; she only had to beg. Every night, the spaniel ate her food in a few seconds. Then she'd sit and stare at the cat every night. Toby would be nice. Using his paw, he'd flick several pieces of tasty food down to the waiting pup. Apparently Katie appreciated it, because whenever she was curled up in her beanbag bed and the cat walked over, she would give up her nice, warm spot. “Toby would then lie down in center of the beanbag，” says Gustafson, “and Katie would lie on the floor.”
1．The reason why some animals prefer to live in groups lies in that ________.
A．they have to follow natural rules
B．they are afraid of staying alone
C．they cannot find food by themselves
D．living alone would make their lives harder
2．According to Bekoff, animals try their best to do what's right because ________.
A．it feels good to be kind
B．animals are friendly by nature
C．they have learned to do so for a long time
D．they want their owners to like them
3．It can be inferred from the last paragraph that ________.
A．Linda always lets the animals eat together
B．Katie sometimes gets her food by stealing
C．Toby is generous but Katie isn't
D．Katie and Toby help each other

1、细节判断题。由文章第一段第三句“...and would have a harder time hunting and raising their young.”可知它们单独生存会非常困难。
2、细节理解题。由文章第二段第三句“It might simply feel good to be kind, just as it does for humans”可知答案为A。
3、推理判断题。由文章最后一段可知它们两个都很慷慨，Toby经常把自己的饭给Katie吃，而Katie经常把自己温暖的床让给Toby，自己睡地板，故选D项。

The African Elephant is the world's largest land animal，and a fully grown elephant can weigh up to 5 tons.They can be found in forests，river valleys，semidesert south of Sahara Desert，Africa.They feed mainly on plants，such as grass，leaves and fruit and so on.They are generally known as mild animals，and won’t attack other animals.
But they are now being hunted for their ivories，which are valuable.Today the species is on the brink of extinction.The population has fallen from 1.3 million in 1980 to 400,000.As a result，they have been listed as endangered species.We hope the International Organization will prevent illegal ivory trade，punish severely poaching behavior and protect them from dying out.
