Question

    Many of us enjoy watching animals in the world. But do you know what they can teach us?

Geese(雁), for example, teach a very good lesson about __________. In autumn, geese fly to the warm south to ________ the cold winter. They started to fly in no order. Yet _________they form a V shape, with one bird leading the whole group in front.

This V shape allows geese to _________energy. Because when the front bird moves its wings up and down, the resulting force of the air lifts the next one. This continues down the line and helps the whole group fly more easily. The bird __________ has the hardest job. When it gets tired , it moves behind, and another bird moves to take its place. By sharing the role, the group can travel _________ distances. Geese flying in a V shape can fly 70 percent farther without _________ than birds flying alone.

During the long flying journey, geese _________ with one another. They honk(鸣叫) to lead the birds in front to keep up the speed. They also cheer each other up _________ working towards a common goal.

【解析】

本文是一篇说明文。文章通过观察大雁的飞行让人们学会团结合作。大雁在飞行过程通过沟通与配合可以比独自飞行快很多。无论是在我们的日常生活和工作中，我们都需要他人，需要合作精神。

1.句意：比如大雁，教我们一个非常好的道理就是团结合作。

experience经验，经历；success成功；friendship友谊；teamwork团结合作。根据最后一句“We need the spirit of teamwork!”可知，我们需要团结合作精神。根据全文教给我们的道理，可知就是团结合作。故选D。

2.句意：在秋天，大雁飞到温暖的南方来逃避寒冷的冬天。

look for寻找；wait for等待；get away from逃脱；go on继续。根据后文“They started to fly in no order.”可知，它们开始没有顺序飞行。他们飞走了，说明逃避寒冬，去温暖的南方了。故选C。

3.句意：但是，它们迅速地形成了V形，由一只雁在前面领着全体大雁飞行。

busily忙碌地；quickly很快地；bravely勇敢地；easily容易地。根据前文和本句“They started to fly in no order. Yet...they form a V shape, with one bird leading the whole group in front.”可知，它们开始没有顺序飞行。但是后面形成了V形，且有领先的大雁带着飞行，说明它们很快进行了调整。故选B。

4.句意：这种V形允许它们节省力量。

save节省；waste浪费；create创造；lose失去。根据前文“…they form a V shape, with one bird leading the whole group in front. This V shape allows geese to…energy.”可知，它们很快进行了调整，因为这样的队形能够带来好处，节省力量和能量。故选A。

5.句意：前面的大雁承担最艰巨的任务。

at the back后面；in front前面；in the middle中间；on the left在左边。根据后文“When it gets tired , it moves behind, and another bird moves to take its place.”可知，当它累的时候，它飞到后边，另外一只飞到前面。所以这是一个接着一个的换，承担最艰巨任务的是最前面的。故选B。

6.句意：通过一同分担任务，它们的团队可以飞行长距离。

long长的；important重要的；short短的；right正确的。根据前文“When it gets tired , it moves behind, and another bird moves to take its place.”可知，当它累的时候，它飞到后边，另外一只飞到前面。所以这样一种分担共享任务是帮助它们可以飞的更远更长。故选A。

7.句意：雁群以V形队列飞行可以比单独一只雁远70%且不用休息。

excuse借口；pain疼；rest休息；result结果。根据前文“When it gets tired , it moves behind, and another bird moves to take its place…By sharing the role, the group can travel long distances.”可知，一个接一个分担共享任务帮助它们可以飞的更远更长，因为一个接一个，所以不需要休息。故选C。

8.句意：在长距离的飞行过程中，雁群是和彼此交流的。

communicate交流；agree同意；come过来；argue争论。根据后文“They honk(鸣叫) to lead the birds in front to keep up the speed.”可知，它们通过鸣叫来引领前面的大雁跟上速度，这是它们的交流方式。故选A。

9.句意：当朝着共同目标前进时候它们是彼此欢呼鼓励的。

until直到；after在……后；while当……时；before在……之前。根据本句“They also cheer each other up…working towards a common goal.” 当朝着共同目标前进时候，它们是彼此欢呼鼓励的，这是同时间进行的。故选C。

10.句意：一起工作。

Play玩；Travel旅行；Live居住；Work工作。根据后文“Whether it is our personal lives or our jobs, we need other people. We need the help from other people. We need the spirit of teamwork!”不论是我们的个人生活还是我们的工作，我们需要别人。我们需要别人的帮助。我们需要团队合作，所以要一起工作，故选D。
