　　参考译文

　　Textl

　　安迪住在洛基山的高处。他在山上捕猎野生动物，也带其他人打猎。那是他的工作。

　　一天，一封信给安迪带来了一份新的工作。这个工作不但改变了他对动物的看法，也改变了他的狩猎方式。信中写道：“我想写一篇关于大角羊的故事。我需要为故事配上图片。请问你可以为我拍摄大角羊的照片吗?”

　　安迪的两个儿子希望父亲接受这份工作。“我们会帮助你的!”他们说。大角羊野性很强。安迪知道给大角羊拍摄照片会很困难。“但是为什么不试试呢?”他的儿子们说。

　　几天来。安迪和他的儿子们努力尝试拍摄大角羊的照片。他们不希望被大角羊发现，所以他们走路很轻。他们躲在岩石的后面，但是大角羊总会逃掉。

　　然而有一天，安迪和他的儿子们走到一块大岩石附近。他们和几只大角羊撞个正着。但是这些羊并没有逃跑!“现在我知道那些羊为什么跑掉了，”安迪说，“它们逃跑是因为我们悄悄地跟在它们后面。从现在开始。我们就待在它们能看见我们的地方。”

　　第二天，安迪看见羊群就站在开阔处。他和他的儿子们朝羊群走过去。他们没有试着躲藏，但是走得非常慢。他们知道只要稍微走快一点都会吓跑羊群。

　　“不要直视那些羊，”安迪说，“野生动物不喜欢被盯着看。他们会逃跑的。”他们朝这边看看朝那边瞅瞅，越来越接近羊群。一会儿，他们就走到足够给羊群拍摄清晰照片的位置了。他们跟这些野生羊群成了朋友，还帮那位作家拍摄了很多精彩的照片。从那时起，他们再也没有捕猎过大角羊。

　　21.D【精析l细节题。题干意为“安迪得到了一份什么新工作?”文章第二段最后“The letter said：‘l want to write a story about bighorn sheep.1 need pictures to go with my story.Will you get pictures of the sheep for me?”提到，安迪收到了一封信，信中作家请求他帮忙拍摄大角羊的照片。文章的最后一段也提到他们帮作家拍摄了很多照片。故D正确。

　　22.B【精析】细节题。题干意为“接近大角羊最好的方法是什么?”根据第七段第一句安迪的口述“Don’t look fight at the sheep，”可知。不能直视羊群，所以排除A。第六段最后一句“They knew that any fast move will frighten them away.”说明走路速度过快也会吓跑羊群，更不用说跑了，所以排除c。第四段最后一句“They hid behind rocks，but the sheep always fan away.”说明跟在羊群后面，羊群也会逃跑，故排除D。结合第五段及第六段内

　　容可知，慢慢地从正面接近大角羊是正确的方式，故B正确。

　　23.D【精析】归纳题。题干意为“安迪从这份新工作中收获了什么?”文章第一段中提及这份工作带给安迪的变化，最后一段也说明他们和大角羊成了朋友，安迪通过这份工作对大角羊有了更多的了解。A、B、C三项在文中都没有体现，故D正确。

　　Text 2
