The pair took Meme in and raised the animal themselves for seven months before releasing her back out into the wild.Neither of them had ever raised a blesbok before.So it required a huge amount of patience and compassion to keep her fit and healthy but it deserved the effort.Meme would follow Vera wherever she went and sometimes the couple would have a blesbok，a dog and a cat all walking together.In the right areas，the blesbok is a really common antelope to see and is therefore often overlooked and under­appreciated.It was a privilege to be let into the blesbok's secret world and they learned more about the blesbok than they thought was ever possible. After releasing Meme back out into the wild，the couple were convinced they would never see her again，until several months later when they were driving around a reserve and happened to come across a herd of blesboks. Vera called out Meme's name in the hope of finding Meme.Blesboks all look very similar to one another，which makes it very difficult to distinguish individuals.When Vera started to talk，the herd raised their heads and looked over.Vera continued to call Meme and as all the other blesboks lost interest，one individual held her gaze and ran straight up to her. After rescuing the lonely animal，Sam and Vera found it extremely emotional to have to release her back out into the wild to fend for herself—even though they knew it was the right thing to do.But after having such a strong bond with an animal，it was really difficult to see her go.They had put so much time，effort and energy into raising her but to see her walking in a herd of blesboks made it all worthwhile. 4．What happened to Meme when she was spotted? A．She became an orphan. B．She was lost in the forest. C．She was hunted by a couple. D．She was abandoned by her mother. 5．What was Meme's life with the couple like? A．She was rare to be seen outside. B．She was hard to be artificially fed. C．She fitted in well with the whole family. D．She was under­appreciated in the family. 6．Which word can best explain the underlined word “fend” in the last paragraph? A．Look. B．Care. C．Search. D．Hunt. 7．Which of the following can best describe the act of rescuing the blesbok? A．Effortless. B．Unsatisfactory. C．Rewarding. D．Heartbreaking. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。野生动物摄影师Sam和妻子Vera救了一只两周龄的南非白面大羚羊并为其取名为Meme，七个月后把它成功放归野外，几个月后再次与它意外相遇。 4．A　[解析]推理判断题。根据第一段可知，野生动物摄影师Sam和妻子Vera发现了一只南非白面大羚羊独自在周围游荡，她的母亲已经死去，所以Meme在被发现时已经成了孤儿。故选A。 5．C　[解析]推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Meme would follow Vera wherever she went and sometimes the couple would have a blesbok，a dog and a cat all walking together.”可知，Meme在这个家适应得很好。故选C。 6．B　[解析]词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句“After rescuing the lonely animal，Sam and Vera found it extremely emotional to have to release her back out into the wild to fend for herself—even though they knew it was the right thing to do.”及上下文可知，Sam夫妇俩救了一只两周龄的南非白面大羚羊并把它抚养长大，最终要放归大自然，目的是让它能自己照顾自己，此处fend意为“照看，照料”，与care意思相近。故选B。 7．C　[解析]推理判断题。根据最后一段可知，救下这只南非白面大羚羊以及之后的一切付出都是值得的。故选C。 Ⅱ.七选五阅读 (2025·辽宁省七校协作体开学考试)For many of us，the closest we get to wild animals is at a zoo.These places let us see amazing animals from big cats to tiny lizards，and what they are like.It's an enjoyable and educational experience for us，but is it the best environment for these animals? 1．______ Later on，live animals were captured by explorers，brought home and put on show to the public in menageries(野生动物园).2.______ Modern zoos，however，have transformed the living environments for animals，making bigger enclosures，removing bars，and to some extent，copying their natural habitats.
