问题     My new pet was the most【C1】________ bird to look at, with his horrible yellow 【C2】________ pushing through the wrinkled scarlet skin typical of baby pigeons.【C3】________ his repulsive and obese appearance Larry suggested we【C4】________ him Quasimodo.
    Because of his unorthodox upbringing, and the fact【C5】________ he had no parents to teach him the facts of life, Quasimodo became【C6】________ that he was not a bird
【C7】________ and refused to fly.【C8】________ he walked everywhere. If he wanted to get on to a table, or a chair, he stood below it,【C9】________ until someone lifted him up. He was always eager to join us in【C10】________ we did, and would even try to come for walks with us. This, however, we had to stop, for either you carried him on your shoulder, which was【C11】________ an accident to your clothes, or you let him walk【C12】________ . Then you had to【C13】________ your pace to suit his,【C14】________ you get too far ahead you would hear the most frantic and【C15】________ coos.
    Quasimodo【C16】________ on sleeping in the house: nothing could【C17】________ him to sleep in the pigeon-loft I had made for him. Then Larry discovered that Quasimodo was a musical pigeon. Not only did he like music, but he【C18】________ seemed to recognize two different【C19】________ , the waltz and the military march. For a waltz he would move round and round the gramophone, bowing and twisting, while for a march, he would stamp【C20】________ the room, his voice becoming so rich that he seemed in danger of strangling himself.
【C16】
选项 A、determined
B、persisted
C、insisted
D、persevered
答案C
解析 本题考点为固定搭配。下文nothing could…him to sleep in the pigeon-loft I had made for him明确提示宠物鸽执意与人为伴。对比四个选项，A选项determine意为“下决心，决定”，一般与动词不定式连用；B选项persist意为“坚持，固执”，一般与in搭配；C选项insist意为“坚持”，一般与on搭配；D选项persevere意为“坚韧，坚持”，一般与in搭配。因此，根据语义和搭配，只能选C。本句大意为：加西莫多坚持睡在屋子里，它怎么都不肯去我为它精心搭建的鸽笼里睡觉。
