“Poor thing, ” Anita said, “It must be 13 . ”

Then suddenly, it was 18 . We looked into the garage, and our uninvited guest was gone.

“See? ” Anita said, “I told you he’d succeed. ”

【文章大意】本文是一篇夹叙夹议的记叙文。作者几年前的一天，碰到一只麻雀被困在车库内，它老是朝上飞而不降低一下高度，结果怎么也飞不出去。作者由此想到，我们在现实生活中是不是也会有此种情况呢？答案是肯定的。因此我们要学会不要老是“upward”，适当“downward”也许意味着成功。

1.【解析】选C。短语：for example例如; rather than而不是；or rather更确切地说；as well也。根据下文，此处的小鸟就是指麻雀。因此，空格之后的sparrow是对前面bird的进一步解释。故答案选C。

2.【解析】选B。前面的“sounds like”和后面的“listened more devotedly”，这说明Anita也并没有把握，所以暂时停下手中的活，认真听一听。故答案选B。

3.【解析】选C。根据文章倒数第四段的“We looked into the garage, and our uninvited guest was gone. ”可知，麻雀是被困在车库里。故答案选C。

4.【解析】选A。根据此处的语境，此处作者是在强调Jonathan的个性，平常老是制造麻烦。故答案选A。

5.【解析】选B。前面提到作者和妻子都在怀疑可能是孩子在搞破坏，因此就到那里查看，结果根本就没有发现孩子的身影。故答案选B。

6.【解析】选D。上文第二段作者提到自己听到轻轻地撞击的声音。所以，此处sound比较适合语境。

7.【解析】选B。当作者再一次听到从上面传出的声音后，发现了这只麻雀。动词watch强调仔细观察，不适合语境。后面的“It was flying”表明realize不合适。故答案选B。 8.【解析】选D。根据下文的“trying to get out”可知，此时，麻雀在车库的天花板底下

飞是非常着急的，因为它急于出去却找不到出口。故答案选D。

9.【解析】选C。根据下文的“but couldn’t see that the way out wasn’t up, but down”，说明小鸟想飞出去的企图还是十分明显的，只是找不到出路。thoroughly彻底地；obviously明显地；eventually最终地；unwillingly不情愿地。故答案选C。

10.【解析】选A。前面提到“but down”，这说明小鸟要想出去，应该是从开着的门出去（the open door）。故答案选A。

11.【解析】选C。为了能够飞出去，这只鸟不断地飞，拍打着自己的翅膀。故答案选C。 12.【解析】选D。因为这只鸟老是朝上飞，因此，老是碰到头，与天花板相撞。故答案选D。 13.【解析】选D。根据下文的“Well, maybe it’s because of us，”正是由于我们，说不定这只小鸟才是如此害怕的，因此而乱飞。故答案选D。

14. 【解析】选A。本来作者是打算引导这只小鸟让它低飞从门口飞出，句中的“but”表明作者并没有成功，小鸟更加害怕。因为前面作者已经猜测出小鸟可能是由于害怕。故答案选A。

15.【解析】选A。根据下文“So we went back into the house, where we continued to hear. . . ”，作者和妻子只是要离开车库几分钟。故答案选A。

16.【解析】选D。既然是Anita建议他俩离开，很明显是希望小鸟能够静下心来找到出去的路。根据下文的“I told you he’d succeed”可以知道妻子的意图。动词短语：put aside放到一边、储存；leave alone不管、不顾；give up放弃；figure out解决、计算出。故答案选D。

17.【解析】选C。此处指两人还能听见这只小鸟在努力挣扎着飞出去。故答案选C。 18.【解析】选D。根据后面“our uninvited guest was gone”，小鸟已经飞走了，因此，也就突然没有声音了。故答案选D。

19.【解析】选A。作者的意思是说：尽管小鸟最后成功地飞出门外，但是为此它又碰了多少次头呢？动词offer表示“（主动的）提供”，earn表示“赢得”，owe表示“欠”，cost表示“花费，付出”。故答案选A。

20.【解析】选B。根据此处的语境，作者的意思是“我们经常会遇到一些我们无法解决的形势，但是……”。classify分类；handle处理、解决；conclude得出结论；debate争论。故答案选B。
