试题分析:这篇短文介绍了火鸡在美国感恩节是一个代表,每一年火鸡场主挑选一只火鸡给美国总统。然而总统并不吃它,而是将它放生。接下来讲述了火鸡来自北美,数百年来一直是美国文化的一部分。同时又将农场的火鸡与野生的火鸡进行了比较,又介绍了火鸡的听力。

1.考查形容词及语境的理解。通过对短文的理解,有一只火鸡不仅能够幸存而且还能够著名。说明这只火鸡是幸运的,故填:lucky

2.考查动词及语境的理解。火鸡场主挑选一只火鸡给美国总统,挑选,故填:pick

3.考查动词及语境的理解。但是总统并不吃这只火鸡,而是将它赦免。因此根据句意为吃这只火鸡,故填:eat

4.考查动词及语境的理解。根据句意:这只火鸡被送到佛罗里达为了一个感恩节游行活动。送send,此处是被动语态,用动词的过去分词,故填:sent

5.考查固定短语及语境的理解。考查固定短语:the rest of剩余的……句意:它剩下的生命时间都会生活在农场,故填:rest

6.考查语境的理解。句意:火鸡来自北美,数百年来一直是美国文化的一部分。从另一个角度讲就是世纪,故填:centuries

7.考查动词及语境的理解。通过句意了解本杰明想将火鸡来代替秃鹰,成为美国的代表。固定短语instead of代替。故填:instead

8.考查形容词及语境的理解。联系上下文得知是将农场的火鸡与野火鸡进行对比,野生的:wild,故填:wild

9.考查名词及语境的理解。联系下文:每小时达到88千米,指的是速度,故填:speed

10.考查动词及语境的理解。分析介绍火鸡没有耳朵,听力在勾嘴上的肉锤,故填:hear
