5.C

6.A

7.D【分析】这是一篇记叙文。本文主要讲的是两只宠物在关键时刻救助主人，从而得到动物保护协会嘉奖的故事。【4题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第二段最后一句“WhentheKeeslingfamilyofIndianawasabouttobekilledbythecarbonmonoxide,theircatclawedatthewifeCathyshairuntilshewokeupandcalledforhelp.”可知，Winnie是通过抓女主人的头发的方式来弄醒她从而报警才使得一家人获救。故选C项。【5题详解】词义猜测题。根据文章第四段第二句“Tobyasa4-week-oldthrownintoagarbagebintodie,andWinnieasaweek-oldorphanhidingunderabarn.”可推知，Toby和Winnie都是在很小的时候被收养的，故此处“infancy”意为“婴儿时期”。故选C项。【6题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第五段第一句“AstheKeesling’srecalledit,agas-drivenpumpbeingusedbrokedown,spreadingcarbonmonoxidethroughthehouse.”可知，导致一氧化碳泄露的原因是燃气管道破裂。故选A项。【7题详解】标题判断题。根据文章第一段开篇点题，并结合对全文的整体理解可知，本文主要讲的是两只宠物在关键时刻救助主人，从而得到动物保护协会嘉奖的故事。故选D项。【点睛】做推理判断题时，要特别注意熟词生义，切不可脱离语境想当然。在句子或段落中，我们可以利用熟悉的词语，根据语言环境所表示的关系推断生词词义，尤其是要注意划线词前后的含义。本题第2小题，根据文章第四段第二句“Tobyasa4-week-oldthrownintoagarbagebintodie,andWinnieasaweek-oldorphanhidingunderabarn.”可推知，Toby和Winnie都是在很小的时候被收养的，故此处“infancy”意为“婴儿时期”。故选C项。19.Ifyouareafraidofthedark，it'snotabigdeal.It'sperfectlynormaltofeelafraid.Afterall，animalsdo，too.“Fearmatters，”saysKarenWarkentin，anecologist.“It'sagoodthing，”sheadds,“becausefearmakesyoudothingsthatkeepyoualive.”Likekids，manyanimalsexperiencefearandtheyrespondtothefeelinginvarietyofways.Afrightenedturtlepullsitsheadandlegsinsideitsshell.Asmallfishwillswimawaywhenabig，hungryfishapproaches.Someanimalsrespondtofearinwaysyoumightnotexpect.Thefirstexampleisthatthefearofbeingeatencanscaresomefrogsrightoutoftheireggs.Warkentinmadethesurprisingdiscoverywhilestudyingred-eyedtreefrogsinCostaRica.Inthisspecies，femalefrogsattachjellylikeclumps(果冻一样的块状物)oftheireggstotheundersidesofleaves.Theleaveshangonbranchesthatdangle(悬挂)overponds.Aftertheyhatchfromtheeggs，thetadpoles(蝌蚪)thenfallintothewater，wheretheyeventuallygrowintoadultfrogs.Treefrogeggsusuallygrowfor6daysbeforehatching(孵出)。Iftheysensethatahungrysnakeisabouttoattack，however，theycanhatchupto2daysaheadoftheschedule.Asthesnakesareunabletoswim，byfallingintothewaterearly，thetadpolescanescape.Ifhatchingearlyhelpsprotectred-eyedtreefrogsfromsnakes，youmightwonderwhytheireggsdon'talwayshatchsooner.Itturnsoutthathatchingearlybringsitsowndanger.Oncetadp
