Hunted as the wild turkey is, it has developed a high degree of ingenuity in escaping from its pursuers. It appears to have learned a game of make-【C1】______. When caught 【C2】______ close quarters, it puts on the tame and【C3】______ demeanor of the domesticated bird.
Dr. Wheaton mentions a case【C4】______ two hunters of his acquaintance came suddenly upon a【C5】______ of five in the road. They seemed quite【C6】______, walked deliberately in front of the two gunners, 【C7】______ a fence, and disappeared slowly 【C8】______ a low hill. Then they【C9】______ to their legs, and presently to their wings, and soon placed a wide【C10】______ between themselves and their dupes. The chagrin of the sportsmen may be imagined. The【C11】______ had made a game of them. Such birds Wheaton would have called "【C12】______ civilized".
Yet turkeys are wise in some respects and foolish in others. In old times, at【C13】______, great numbers were caught in【C14】______ built of logs, the only entrance【C15】______which was through a shallow, narrow trench. The【C16】______ birds, following the corn which had been scattered in the trench, 【C17】______ through the entrance; when perhaps half a dozen of them were inside, and the bait was all eaten, they tried in【C18】______ to get out through the top or sides of the pen, never once looking down and passing【C19】______ by the way they had come in, even though they might remain in the trap for several days, or until they【C20】______ of hunger.

选项
A、friendly
B、innocent
C、sophisticated
D、hostile
答案
B
解析
本题考点为语境推理和词义辨析。
(1)句式分析。
原句是一个带有时间状语从句的复杂句。主句it puts on the tame…中,the tame and ______demeanor of…作宾语。tame and______修饰名词demeanor,可见,空白处要填一个形容词,与tame并列修饰demeanor。domesticated是bird的定语。
(2)句意判断。
根据本段的前两句…it has developed…It appears to have learned a game of…可知,此句意为“在近处被抓时,火鸡会摆出一副如同家鸟般温顺无辜的样子”。由本句中的tame(驯服的,温顺的)和domesticated(被驯养了的)可知,此处应填innocent。
【知识拓展】词汇拓展。
①friendly的同义词有amicable,neighborly,folksy,kind,amiable;innocent的同义词有inculpable,harmless,guiltless,sinless;sophisticate的同义词有prudent,worldly-wise,man of the world;hostile的同义词有inimical,surly,virulent,unfriendly。
②有关put on的表达:put on airs摆架子;put on one’s feet使恢复繁荣;put on one’s guard使保持警惕;put on weight增重,长胖;put one’s best face on尽量表现得和蔼可亲;put one’s cards on the table把情况亮到桌面上来;put one’s finger on确切说出。
