Jack Billabong is a stockman. One Friday afternoon he was riding along die track towards the Henderson farm. He was looking for a prize bull which had escaped from the Borrogee paddock (小围场). He reached the hills and saw at once that he could not go further.
There had been a fire in the forest which had gone out. But die air was still full of smoke and fallen trees had blocked die track. Jack was just going to turn back when he saw something moving in the smoke. He waited. It was a girl on a horse, and she was riding towards him. " There’ s a badly burnt man on die farm," die girl shouted. " He saved my life. Please help me to save him. "
The girl was Cathy Henderson. She had been on horseback for two hours. She had to jump over fallen trees that were still burning. Her pony had fallen with her twice. She was thirsty and almost dead from want of sleep. But she rode back to the farm with Jack immediately.
Joe Brook was unconscious when they reached him. They lifted him onto Jack’ s horse. The ride back to Borrogee was terrible. Cathy was so tired that Jack had to tie her to her pony. The pony was tired too, but its courage was astonishing. It followed Jack right to Borrogee Hospital. Nobody saw them arrive because it was night.
" I’ve never seen a horse like that pony," Jack said. Cathy praised Jack Billabong, but she refused to say anything about die pony, "Joe will write about her in his story," she said.
But she did say one thing: " If Flame hadn’t returned to the farm that afternoon, Joe and I would have died. "
What does the word "Flame" in the last paragraph refer to?
选项
A、Jack.
B、The pony.
C、Jack’s horse.
D、The fire.
答案
B
解析
推理判断题。文章最后一段Cathy提到,如果那天下午Flame没有回到农场,Joe和她就会死去。而在Cathy遇到Jack之前,一直是她的小马载着她闯出农场寻找救援人员的,而且Cathy的小马在营救Jone时也非常英勇,因此推测Flame是Cathy的小马的名字。故选B。
