试题分析：本文主要讲了作者收养了一只很凶猛的流浪猫。作者坚持用爱感化这只流浪猫。这只猫成为了作者一家人的宠爱之物。
小题1: C。考查形容词：这里对应下文的“because the cat was so fierce and mean”。其他选项从文中看不出来。Cute漂亮的；strong强壮的；fierce凶猛的；smart聪明的。
小题2: A。考查短语：此句要表达的意思是别人在旁边的时候这只猫就不会走近我，所以选择A。
小题3: D。考查动词：从上文可知，这只猫不靠近我们的原因是不信任我们。Love爱；attack攻击；refuse拒绝；trust信任。
小题4: B。考查动词：从上下文可以看出，作者对这只猫非常怜爱，所以please和satisfy都不对，作者带猫回家也不是让它看作者的家庭，所以选择B。please使高兴；join加入；see看；satisfy满意。
小题5: D。考查动词：从下文兽医说这只猫凶猛不能被驯服可知，兽医建议给它催眠，让它安静下来再把它带回家。Death死亡；sight看见；observation观察；sleep睡觉。
小题6:B。考查副词：根据句子的逻辑关系，这只猫凶猛不善良，____不能被驯服，只有B（几乎不）符合语境。Simply简单地；hardly几乎不；easily容易地；gradually逐渐地。
小题7: C。考查短语：句意为：我一直相信爱的力量能够驯服最凶猛的猛兽。所以选择C，have faith in 相信……。

小题12: B。考查动词：本句指作者悄悄爬到床底下向Paws移动，与下文的“Then I slid out from under the bed”相呼应。hide 躲藏；shelter 躲避；slide 悄悄地溜到。
小题13:C。考查名词：根据下文描述得知，作者只有头顶冲着Paws，所以应该是脸贴着地板，选择C。bed床；sky天空；floor地板；feet脚。
小题14: D。考查短语：这里指我伸出手（reach out）去抚摩它，turn out to 结果是……。
小题15: B。考查动词：从下文它试图咬作者可以看出，它是在攻击作者，play和lick都不对，猫也不可能推人，故选D， scratch 抓。
小题16: A。考查动词：上半句提到这很可怕，但作者有保护装备，知道Paws伤害不到他，所以继续进行着。Hurt伤害；bother打扰；avoid避免；betray背叛。
小题17: D。考查短语：从下文作者从容离开房间可以看出Paws没有生气也没有逃跑，而是安静了下来。get angry生气；give up放弃；run away逃跑；calm down平静。

Robert Capa is a name that has for many years been associated with war photography．
Born in Hungary in 1913，Capa was forced to leave his native country after his involvement in anti-government protests．Capa had originally wanted to become a writer，but after his arrival in Berlin he first found work as a photographer．He later left Germany and moved to France and it was here that he changed his name to Robert Capa，mainly because he thought it would sound more American．
