News Report One

听力原文

    (1) New York City police captured a cow on the loose in Prospect Park on Tuesday after the animal became an attraction for tourists while walking along the streets and enjoying the park facilities.

    The confused creature and camera-holding humans stared at each other through a fence for several minutes.

    At other times the cow wandered around the 526-acre park and the artificial grass field normally used for human sporting events.

    Officers use soccer goals to fence the animal in. However, the cow then moved through one of the nets, knocking down a police officer in the process.

    Police eventually trapped the cow between two vehicles parked on either side of a baseball field’s bench area. An officer then shot an arrow to put it to sleep.

    The officers waited for the drug to take effect. After it fell asleep, they loaded the cow into a horse trailer.

    (2) It was not clear where the cow came from or how it got lost. Police turned it over to the Animal Control Department after they caught it.

2. What do we learn about the cow from the end of the news report?

解析：D。根据录音最后一句可知，警察抓住那头奶牛之后，把它交给了动物管理部门。D项中的It was sent to是录音中turned it over to的同义替换，the Animal Control Department为原词复现，故正确答案为D。录音后半部分提到了shot，但原文说的是一名警察朝那头奶牛射了一枪镇定剂，想让它睡着，并不是开枪把它打死，death一词并未在录音中提及，故A项错误。原文没有提及奶牛要回到动物园，故B项可排除。C项利用became…attraction for tourists设置干扰，但录音开头说的是这只出逃的奶牛吸引了许多游客的注意，并不是成为了一个吸引游客的巨大卖点，故C项错误。
