文章大意：本文講了作者的祖父教給他的一節(jié)課：如果一只羊迷路了你去找它，其他羊可能也會迷路了，甚至有可能被狼吃掉，爺爺通過這個告訴作者無論發(fā)生什么事，都要保持冷靜。

【1】句意：我的爺爺是一個牧羊人。

chicken雞；cotton棉花；sheep羊；rice大米。根據(jù)下文“Grandpa looked after the sheep”可知爺爺是一名牧羊人。故選C。

avoided避免；punished懲罰；borrowed借；protected保護(hù)。根據(jù)題干中“____ them from wolves and other wild animals in the forest”可推出此處用短語protect … from …表示“保護(hù)……免受……侵害”。故選D。

【3】句意：一天早上，當(dāng)爺爺聚集羊群時，我們出發(fā)了。

we我們；you你，你們；she她；they他們。根據(jù)下文“As we were guarding the sheep”可知此處是說我們出發(fā)了。故選A。

【4】句意：Nick，想象你自己是個牧羊人。

doubt懷疑；imagine想象；encourage鼓勵；suggest建議。結(jié)合題意“Nick，____你自己是個牧羊人”及Nick并不是牧羊人的事實可知答案。故選B。

【5】句意：作為一個牧羊人，我應(yīng)該對每一只羊負(fù)責(zé)。

結(jié)合題干中“be ___ for”與選項中詞語構(gòu)成形容詞短語。be helpful for對某人來說有幫助；be known for因……而出名；be thirsty for渴望……；be responsible for對……負(fù)責(zé)。根據(jù)下文“If one sheep is lost, I will do whatever it takes to bring it back.”可推出此處是說我應(yīng)該對每一只羊負(fù)責(zé)。故選D。

【6】句意：你有一顆善心，但是我認(rèn)為你不夠聰明。

so因此；but但是；because因為；if如果。根據(jù)句意“你有一顆善心，____我認(rèn)為你不夠聰明”可知設(shè)空處前后表示轉(zhuǎn)折，用but符合題意。故選B。

【7】句意：在那時，我不明白。

hear聽見；discuss討論；wait等待；understand明白。根據(jù)下文爺爺?shù)慕忉尲?/span>“The more I thought about Grandpa’s words, the more I ____ how true it was!”可推出在那個時候還不明白爺爺?shù)囊馑肌９蔬xD。

【8】句意：如果你沒有，你將不能做出正確的決定。

wishes希望；mistakes錯誤；decisions決定；suggestions建議。根據(jù)題干中“make right _____”及上文作者決定去找回迷失的羊，可推出此處用make right decisions表示“做出正確的決定”。故選C。

【9】句意：它們可能也會迷路。

lost迷路的；sick生病的；lucky幸運的；popular受歡迎的。根據(jù)上文“one of these sheep is lost”及空后“too”可推出此處用get lost表示“迷路”。故選A。
