【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】________ .

【C20】

选项 A、to and from
B、back and forth
C、up and down
D、upside down

答案C

解析 本题考点为语义推理。空格后面的词为the room,代入A选项to and from意为“往来于屋子”。代入B选项back and forth意为“来来回回地”,不能带the room。C选项up and down意为“(在屋子里)来回”。D选项upside down意为“上下颠倒”。故C选项符合句意,表示“在屋子里来回踏步”。本句大意为:听到华尔兹舞曲,它便绕着留声机来回走动、鞠躬、旋转;听到进行曲,它就会在房间里来回踏步,并发出极其响亮的叫声。
