二、用所给词的适当形式填空
friend / be / make / colour / fly
My bird, Lily, is part of the family. She is quite a beautiful bird, with feathers(羽毛)! She has big eyes. She is really and loves to sing for everyone. She is also very clever. She can around to look for me and pick up small things for me. She my home lively and brings me joy. I love her very much. We close friends.
1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

1. colourful 2. friendly 3. fly 4. makes
5. are

【分析】
我们可以逐个空结合语境和所给词汇来分析：
1. 第一个空修饰名词feathers，需要形容词，所给词colour是名词，转换为形容词colourful（色彩鲜艳的），符合描述羽毛漂亮的语境。
2. 第二个空在be动词is后作表语，描述鸟的性格，friend是名词，转换为形容词friendly（友好的），和后文“喜欢给大家唱歌”的语境匹配。
3. 第三个空前面是情态动词can，情态动词后要接动词原形，所给词里fly是动词，fly around表示“飞来飞去”，符合“飞来找我”的意思。
4. 第四个空主语是She（第三人称单数），句子是一般现在时，谓语动词要用第三人称单数形式，make的第三人称单数是makes，make sth lively表示“让……充满生机”，符合句意。
5. 第五个空主语是We（复数），一般现在时中，be动词要用are，表达“我们是亲密的朋友”。
【解析】
1. 空后是名词feathers，需要形容词修饰，将名词colour变为形容词colourful，故填colourful。
2. 此处需要形容词作表语描述鸟的性格，将名词friend变为形容词friendly，故填friendly。
3. 情态动词can后接动词原形，所给词中fly为动词原形，符合“飞来找我”的语境，故填fly。
4. 主语She是第三人称单数，一般现在时中谓语动词用第三人称单数形式，make的第三人称单数是makes，故填makes。
5. 主语We是复数，一般现在时中be动词用are，故填are。
【答案】
1. colourful 2. friendly 3. fly 4. makes
5. are
【知识点】
1. 形容词构成及用法
2. 情态动词用法
3. 一般现在时主谓一致
【点评】
这道题主要考查词汇的词性转换和基础语法知识，需要结合语境判断每个空所需的词性，同时注意一般现在时的主谓一致和情态动词的用法，是对英语基础词汇和语法的综合考查，有助于巩固学生的基础知识。

My name is Bailey, and I am a black cat. I live with my owners, Ken and Sandra, in New Hampshire. As a cat, I spend most of my time sleeping, and Sandra made a wonderful bed just for me. They also built a cat door so I can come and go as I please. We often play with balls together, which always brings them a lot of joy. But life wasn't always this good. In fact, they didn't want me at first. Let me tell you the story of how I came to live with them.
I dreamed to have a home. Many times I waited outside Ken and Sandra's door for them to get back home. I knew I had only very short time to make my move. So I would get close to Sandra, purring(咕噜叫) loudly and looking up at her face. But Ken always said, "Don't let him in. Don't let him in." And they closed the door in my face.
Weeks went by, and it was the same every time. Then, one dark and stormy(有暴风雨的) night, my big day came. I was waiting for them to come home, as usual, when it started to rain. Now, cats know enough to get out of the rain. I could sit under the wooden table in the yard. But I wanted to be right there in front of the door when they came home.
Before long, the rain turned to snow. This was even better. I was sure that no one would turn a cat away on such a night. I heard their car pull into(驶入) the yard. Then I watched them hurry to the house. As soon as they saw me, I started to cry sadly. In no time, I was inside the house. Sandra put me in her arms to keep warm. And I found a home.

()2. What does "my move" in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Showing Sandra I need her.

D. Letting the door close.
()3. Why did Bailey stay in the rain on the stormy night?
A. Because he couldn't get out of the rain.
B. Because he hated sitting under the table.
C. Because Ken and Sandra could see him there.
D. Because Ken and Sandra knew he was there.

D. Loving.

【分析】
1. 第1题：首先明确题目问的是主人为Bailey做的事，需回到原文第一段定位相关信息。原文提到“Sandra made a wonderful bed just for me. They also built a cat door so I can come and go as I please. We often play with balls together”，而“spend most of my time sleeping”是Bailey自己的行为，并非主人做的，因此排除①，选择②③④对应的选项。
2. 第2题：“my move”所在的第二段讲述Bailey想要获得一个家，每次等主人回家时只有很短的时间来采取行动，紧接着描述了他靠近Sandra、咕噜叫并抬头看她的行为，由此可推断“my move”指的是向Sandra展示自己需要她的收留，从而找到家。
3. 第3题：定位到第三段，原文明确指出“I wanted to be right there in front of the door when they came home”，说明Bailey待在雨里是为了让Ken和Sandra回家时能看到他，进而收留他。其他选项均不符合原文信息，比如A选项提到他躲不开雨，但原文说他可以躲在院子里的木桌下，所以A错误。
4. 第4题：最后一段中，Bailey知道在暴风雨雪的夜晚主人不会拒绝一只猫，特意等在门口，最终成功获得了家，这个行为体现出他很聪明，懂得利用情境达成自己的目的，而friendly（友好的）、playful（爱玩的）、loving（有爱心的）均不符合此处的行为特点。
5. 第5题：文章以Bailey的视角展开，开头介绍他现在拥有家，中间讲述他如何努力获得这个家的过程，结尾点明“And I found a home”，整篇文章围绕“找到家”这一核心内容，因此最佳标题是“I Find My Home”。
【解析】
1. 第1题：根据第一段“Sandra made a wonderful bed just for me. They also built a cat door so I can come and go as I please. We often play with balls together”可知，主人为Bailey做了床、猫门，还和他一起玩，而“spend most of my time sleeping”是Bailey自己的行为，故选D。
2. 第2题：第二段中Bailey想拥有一个家，在主人回家时只有很短时间行动，他通过靠近Sandra、咕噜叫的方式试图让她收留自己，因此“my move”指的是向Sandra展示自己需要她的收留，故选A。
3. 第3题：由第三段“I wanted to be right there in front of the door when they came home”可知，Bailey待在雨里是为了让主人回家时能看到他，故选C。
4. 第4题：最后一段中Bailey利用暴风雨雪的夜晚让主人不忍心拒绝自己，成功获得家，体现出他的聪明，故选A。
5. 第5题：文章围绕Bailey寻找家的经历展开，开头和结尾都点明“找到家”这一核心，故选B。
【答案】
1.D 2.A 3.C 4.A 5.B
【知识点】
1. 阅读理解细节查找
2. 词义指代猜测
3. 主旨大意归纳
【点评】
本文以黑猫Bailey的第一视角讲述了它从无家可归到成功获得主人收留的温暖经历，属于记叙文范畴。题目侧重考查细节提取、语境推理和主旨归纳能力，解题时需紧密结合原文内容，通过定位关键信息、理解上下文逻辑来得出答案，能有效锻炼学生的信息处理和阅读理解能力。
