了保护它。故选A项。

3.B作者在下文“Maybeitwasquiteattachedtousanddicin'twanttoleaveus,orit

didn'twanttoleavetheluxuriouslife”中解释了米图不离开的原因,所以上文中作者纳闷

长故选B项。

4.D根据句中“iheluxuriouslife”和“〔hetoughrealityoflife”可推知，作者认为米图不离开

的原因是不想面对生活的残酷现实。故选D项。

myspirit”可推知，作者不铠与外面的世界联系层建自己生活在笼子里。故选B项。

9.C根据句中“Iamnotabletodoso”可知,作者现在可以自由飞翔，但像鹦鹉米图一样，已

经没有了飞翔的能力，这是让人悲哀的事情。故选C项。

10.A根据上文“Myfamilyweresostrongly]thattheytrimmeditswings...it

wouldn't2outsidewithoutus."不口“Iwasprohibitedfromreally7theoutside

world...waslikean
