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.

B、approached
C、topped
D、mounted
答案
D
解析
本题考点为语境推理和词义辨析。
(1)句式分析。
原句They seemed…,walked…,______a fence,and disappeared slowly…的谓语是一个平行结构,四个动词seemed,walked,disappeared和本题需要填入的动词并列在一起作谓语。可见,这道题需要填入这五只火鸡发出的一连串动作之一,并与a fence(篱笆)搭配,表示“翻过篱笆”之意,应选mounted。
(2)句意判断。
首段告诉我们,为了逃避追捕者,火鸡进化出逃生的智谋,为了避开近旁的危险,它们会伪装出很驯顺、无辜的样子。为此,举了第二段这个例子,描述火鸡在碰到猎人时,伪装出的一系列动作。由此推断,本句意为“它们看上去若无其事,从容不迫地走在猎人前面,翻过篱笆,慢慢消失在山那边”。
