C。根据下文飞机把Farley送到了一个没有房屋和人的地方, 说明了这个地方不可能是城市,小镇和村庄故a far place为正确答案。‎ 3. A。狼吃人的恐怖故事给孤身一人的Farley带来的应是afraid。‎ 4. B。因为Farley害怕, 所以枪应始终不能离身。all the time意为“一直、始终”。‎ 5. B。根据下文的描述，狼妈妈给孩子们喂奶，对孩子们进行训练，可见是一位好妈妈，故选good。‎ 6. C。狼只能猎取食物, 而不能烧食物, 生产食物。get合乎文意，为正确答案。‎ 7. D。shout at意为“朝……大声叫喊”；look into意为“调查、观察”；laugh at意为“嘲笑……”。这三个词组都不符文意。play with意为“和……一起玩耍”，合文意为正确答案。‎ 8. C。the nice happy wolf family让Farley不再害怕，因此也就不再需要枪了，故选择gun.。‎ 9. B。因为他的亲身体验与他所听到的相违背，说明以前关于狼的说法是不对的, 故选not true。‎ ‎10. D。understand意为“了解”合乎文意，为正确答案。‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎
