[2025 江苏苏州期中]In a quiet village by a green forest, there was a girl called Mia. One sunny afternoon, when she was walking in the forest, she heard a sad 1 . Then she followed the sound and found a baby deer stuck (困住) in a small tree. Its leg was hurt, and it looked 2 .
Mia got close slowly and tried to speak to the 3 , but it was too weak to make a sound. Mia helped free it from the tree 4 . She knew it needed help, so she ran to the 5 animal centre.
At the centre, the nurse did everything she could to 6 the deer. "Thanks to your help, it is now out of 7 ." The nurse said. Mia was glad to hear this and decided to do more for 8 .
She asked her friends to come together and 9 a club to protect animals. They did the weekend clean-up in the forest to pick up litter, because it might hurt animals in the 10 . The club also raised money and gave it to the animal centre.

( )10. A. club B. wild C. street D. centre
1. 答案：D
解析：根据“sad”和后文“baby deer stuck in a small tree”（小鹿被困在树上）的语境，小鹿会发出“哭声（cry）”。“conversation”（对话）、“song”（歌曲）、“joke”（笑话）均不符合语境。
2. 答案：C
解析：小鹿的腿受伤且被困，因此会感到“害怕（afraid）”。“pleased”（高兴的）、“relaxed”（放松的）、“angry”（生气的）均不符合逻辑。
3. 答案：B
解析：前文明确提到“found a baby deer”，因此Mia是和“鹿（deer）”说话。
4. 答案：A
解析：小鹿受伤且虚弱，Mia解救它时应“小心地（carefully）”。“excitedly”（兴奋地）、“politely”（礼貌地）、“noisily”（吵闹地）均不符合语境。
5. 答案：D
解析：Mia需要尽快救助小鹿，因此会跑向“最近的（closest）”动物中心。“nicest”（最好的）、“cleanest”（最干净的）、“biggest”（最大的）不符合“紧急救助”的逻辑。
6. 答案：A
解析：动物中心的护士会尽力“拯救（save）”受伤的小鹿。“train”（训练）、“sell”（售卖）、“show”（展示）均不符合语境。
