ooradventureswithhisgrandfather”可知，和祖父的户外冒险，依据常识，应当是让他爱上大自然。9．答案与解析：C依据前文的“localfiredepartment”结合常识可推知，消防部门应当是紧急呼叫。故选C。10．答案与解析：C依据前文“Fromhisinternship”以及后文“aranger”可知，Kerr从实习生晋升为护林员。故选C。11．答案与解析：A依据前文“educatingparkvisitors”以及后文“betweenguestsandanimals”结合常识可知，护林员的工作就是教化游客，确保游客与动物之间的平安接触。12．答案与解析：B依据后文“whathedescribesasoneinthemostbeautifulplaces”可知，Kerr认为自己是在最漂亮的地方工作，所以是珍惜自己的工作。13．答案与解析：C句意：他很珍惜自己的工作，他形容自己是在最漂亮的地
