A close friend of mine lives with six hundred wild animals on the Greek Island of Kyklos.Ever since he left school (where I first knew him)，he has travelled all over the world collecting animals for his very own zoo.He hoped to collect at least two examples of every sort of animal on his island before the Great Flood. But the flood that my friend was afraid of was a flood not of water, but of people. I expect you have heard of my friend: he writes books about his travels，and about the wild and wonderful animals that he collects. The money from the books helps to pay for all the food that these animals eat.

My friend told me that when he was out looking for water last week，(there is not enough water on the island，though there is plenty all round it，)he found oil.He needs money for his travels，and for his zoo，and a little oil would buy enough water for a lifetime；but he knows that if he tells anybody else about it，it will be the end of his zoo, and his life’s work.

So，if I know my friend，he will not tell anybody (but you and me)about what he found—because oil and water do not mix.

1.C

2.D

3.A

【解析】

1.细节理解题。文章首句作了说明：A close friend of mine lives with six hundred wild animals on the Greek Island of Kyklos。

2.细节理解题。原文叙述作者的朋友毕业后走遍世界，为开办动物园收集动物。

3.词义理解题。flood本指洪水泛滥，在此引申为过多的人，其朋友盼望在人们大量来到岛上之前尽可能地喂养动物，这是他的计划和设想，但他担心的是大批的人们来到岛上会破坏他的设想和计划。本题的选择答案可从文中“But the flood that my friend was afraid of was a flood not of water，but of people.”一句看出。
