三、阅读短文，从方框内所列选项中选出最佳选项填入对应空白处，使短文通顺、连贯。
Hello, friends! Look at me! I am from South Africa, and now I live in a zoo.
1 However, they don't treat us as true friends.
Every day, many people come here to see me and take photos with me. It seems that I can make them very happy. 2 Because I don't have many friends. And people think I am dangerous sometimes, so I have to be in the same place all day. 3
And in my hometown (家乡), people kill many of my friends for their ivory. 4 I don't want to live here. I want to go back to nature and live a happy life.
Do you know who I am? I'm an elephant. 5
A. It's boring for me
B. People aren't our friends.
C. Please come and save us.
D. They are in great danger.
E. But I don't like to live here.
F. People always say that animals are their friends.
1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

1. F 2. E 3. A 4. D 5. C

我们可以根据上下文逻辑逐一匹配选项：
1. 第1空后句出现转折词However，含义为“然而他们并不把我们当做真正的朋友”，对应选项F“人们总是说动物是他们的朋友”，前后形成完美的转折逻辑，符合语境。
2. 第2空前句说“看起来我能让人们很开心”，后句开始解释原因“我没有很多朋友”，对应选项E“但是我不喜欢住在这里”，转折引出自己的真实感受，后文顺承解释不喜欢的原因，逻辑通顺。
3. 第3空前句说明“我整天必须待在同一个地方”，对应选项A“这对我来说很无聊”，承接被困住的状态，顺理成章表达出大象的感受。
4. 第4空前句提到“人们为了象牙杀害我的很多朋友”，对应选项D“他们处于极大的危险之中”，承接朋友被猎杀的现状，说明族群的处境。
5. 第5空前点明身份是大象，全文都在讲述大象的糟糕处境，对应选项C“请来救救我们”，符合全文呼吁保护大象的主旨，收尾自然。
