Dogs are amazing creatures and Lilica, a Brazilian stray（流浪狗）, is a perfect example of that. She lives in a junkyard, 31 with a motley（混杂的）crew, and she makes sure her friends never go 32 Every night, Lilica walks four miles in the dark, braving the rush hour traffic, just to bring food back to the other animals in her ‘family’—a dog, a cat, a few chickens and a mule.

Lilica was 33 at a junkyard in San Carlos, Brazil, when she was just a puppy. Neile Vaina Antonio, the junkyard caretaker, took her in and cared for her. As she grew, she became friends with all the other animals in the junkyard. It appears that they offer each other warmth, companionship and solidarity.

Three years ago, Lilica was 34 and had eight puppies. As her 35 grew, she knew she had to find a way to provide food for her cubs, as there was little to be found at the junkyard. That’s when she started going out at night, walking for miles, 36 leftovers. During one of her 37 travels, Lilica was lucky enough to meet dog-lover Lucia, who took 38 on her.

Lucia, a teacher by profession said she noticed Lilica roaming the streets and realized the poor dog was looking for food. “She walked and 39 the garbage bins—that called my 40 ” Lucia said. “I thought she was homeless because she was searching for food. It was then that I offered her some food.”

“One day, she stopped eating, 41 the open food bag and ran away with it. And the food was dropping from the bag 42 the way. Then, the following day when she finished eating I 43 the bag. And she took it. From there on, that’s how we do it. I tie the bag and she carries it.”

One day, Lucia 44 Lilica, and discovered why she took the bag every night. It turned out that she was carrying the food back to the junkyard. “In the beginning, she brought food to her puppies, but in time she began bringing food for the other animals here in the junkyard as well,” said Neile. “Her attitude is different, the look of her eyes is different.”

The puppies were eventually 45 but Lilica didn’t stop. For the past three years, she has been walking the four-mile distance from the junkyard to Lucia’s home every night. Lucia follows her daily 46 as well—she leaves home 47 at 9pm and waits for Lilica at an empty lot nearby. The dog arrives promptly to eat and 48 her take-away.

“I don’t travel, I don’t go to places and stay for too long because of her,” said Lucia. Because I know she relies on me, so it’s a 49 that I have with her, and an appointment she has with me too because she comes every day.”

“We as human beings barely share things with others,” Neile said. “But an animal sharing things with other animals is a/an 50 for us.”

第二节：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）

阅读下列短文，从每篇短文后所给各题的四个选项（A、B、C和D）种，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

When a dad promised his seven-year-old daughter she would be a real princess, he wasn’t kidding.

Jeremiah Heaton travelled to a remote desert region of Africa to claim a disputed stretch of land in his daughter Emily’s name.
