The creature’s【D1】______journey was witnessed by a woman【D2】______her dog as the 2 feet bird waddled(摇摇摆摆地走)out of the water in front of her. She said: "It was out of this world to see it.

    The tale of the【D4】______penguin is similar to the 2006 children’s film Happy Feet, in which a young penguin【D5】______himself far from home during a voyage of discovery. Conservationists believe it has completed an incredible journey for such a young bird—it is【D6】______to be around 10 months old. The most likely【D7】______for its appearance in New Zealand is the hunt for food. Experts said it may also have【D8】______on an ice floe during its travels and was carried north for a great【D9】______before it made a swim for dry land. Colin Miskelly said: "They can spend months at a time in the【D10】______and come ashore only to moult(换羽)or rest."
A)lost F)sand K)finds
B)astonishing G)estimated L)explanation
C)rested H)elevated M)distance

【D9】

选项

答案M

解析 空格前为形容词great,因此空格处应填名词。由整句句意“在它游向干燥的陆地之前,它可能站在一块浮冰上被带到北方来……”以及51题所在句中的an incredible journey等词可以判断,空格处应表示“一段距离”。M)distance最符合句意。
