{01} As ______ mountains surrounding our village are turning much greener, they have become ________ home to a large number of wild animals. A.the; / B.the; a C./; a D.the; the 解析：A　句意：当我们村周围的群山变绿时，它们便成了很多野生动物的栖息地。根据句意可知，第一空后的mountains在本句中表示特指，故用定冠词，排除C项；be/become home to...为固定搭配，相当于be/become the home of...，意为“……的栖息地”。
本题选A。

答案：　A
本题选A。
