朵向后或发出嘶嘶声)”提到了在猫咪首次见面时应密切注意它们的行为，A项“密切观察”概括下文内容，适合作为本段的小标题。故选A项。【20题详析】上文“Keepaneyeonthemforanyavoidantoraggressivebehavior,suchasrunningawayandhiding,carsgoingbackorhissing.(注意观察它们是否有回避或攻击性的行为，比如逃跑和躲藏、耳朵向后或发出嘶嘶声)”表明要注意猫的行为，D项“并在情况变得无法挽回之前准备好采取行动。”意味着在猫咪之间发生冲突之前要做好准备采取措施，承接上文，符合语境。故选D项。第三部分英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。WhenIwasachild,mymomlikedtomakefoodfordinnereverynowandthen.AndIrememberedonenightinparticularwhenshemadedinnerafteralong,___21___dayatwork.Onthateveningsolongago,mymomplacedaplateofeggs,sausage,and___22___burnedtoastinfrontofmydad.Irememberedwaitingtoseeifdad___23___it.Yetallmydaddidwasto___24___histoast,smileatmymomandaskmehowmy___25___wasatschool.Ididn’trememberwhatItoldhimthatnight,butIdidrememberwatchinghimsmear(涂上)butteronthattoastandeatevery___26___!WhenIgotup___27___thetablethatevening,Irememberedhearingmymomsaysorrytomydadforburningthetoast.___28___Iwouldneverforgetwhathesaid,“Baby,I___29___burnttoast.”Laterthatnight,IwenttokissDaddygoodnightandIaskedhimifhe___30___likedhistoastburned.Hewrapped(包裹)meinhis___31___andsaid,“Son,yourmomspentaharddayatworktodayandshe’sreallytired.Andbesides,apieceofburnttoast___32___hurtsanyone!”Youknow,lifeisfullof___33___thingsandpeople.WhatI’velearnedovertheyearsisthattryingto___34___faultsofeachotherandchoosingtoembracedifferencesofeachotherarethemostimportantkeystocreatinga___35___relationship.21.A.ordinary
