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、timid
B、greedy
C、clever
D、sensitive
答案
B
解析
本题考点为语义推理和词义辨析。
(1)句式分析。
原句中,The______birds是主语,following the corn which had…是现在分词短语,作The ______birds的定语,following the corn which had…中,which had been scattered in the trench也作the birds的定语。______through the entrance中要填入的是动词,作本句的谓语。The______birds中,需要填入的是个形容词,作birds的定语。
(2)句意判断。
根据前一句…great numbers were caught…和后一句when perhaps half a dozen of them were inside…可知,因为鸟儿贪吃所以才会进入畜栏,因此,The______birds中需要填入的形容词应该是greedy(贪婪的)。由此可见,此句意为这些贪婪的鸟儿为了吃撒落在壕沟里的谷粒,相继涌入畜栏。
