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.

C、attempt
D、vain
答案
D
解析
本题考点为语境推理与词语搭配。
(1)句式分析。
原句是个典型的复杂句,主句是they tried in______to get out through…,when perhaps half a dozen of them were inside…是时间状语从句,never once looking down and passing…是现在分词短语作状语,even though they might remain in the trap…是让步状语从句,until they…是时间状语从句。在主句they tried in______to get out through…中,they是主语,tried是谓语,to get out是动词不定式作宾语,由此可知,in______是状语,介词in后应该是一个名词。
(2)句意判断。
本段首句是这一段的主题句,第二句是总体上说火鸡的愚蠢之处,从第三句开始描写火鸡愚蠢的具体体现。依据这一逻辑线索可知,此句意为“当大半的火鸡进入畜栏,吃光谷粒后,它们便试图从里面出来,它们在畜栏的顶部和四周白费力气,却从未低下头看看进来时的路,就这样它们在畜栏里困了好几天,直到最后饿死在里面”。in vain是固定搭配,意为“徒劳的,无效的”,故此处应该填vain。
