这是一道英语阅读理解中的六选四题型，主要考查学生对于文章内容的理解和上下文的逻辑推理能力。学生需要根据文章的内容，从给出的选项中选出最合适的句子填入空白处，使文章内容完整、通顺。
文章主要讲述了人们养不同寻常的宠物的情况，并以Anthony和John养狮子Christian为例，描述了他们与狮子的生活经历以及后来的重逢。
1. 第一个空白处需要填入一个能够引出后文“Here is an example of animal owners with an unusual pet.”的句子，即需要提到人们养不寻常宠物的情况并不罕见，因此选项B“In fact,people with unusual pets are nothing new.”最为合适。
2. 第二个空白处描述的是Christian在白天和晚上的活动，与后文的“But Christian quickly grew too large for the shop”形成转折关系。因此，需要填入描述Christian在店内活动的句子，选项F“And at night he'd sit on their knees while they read or watched TV.”符合语境。
3. 第三个空白处描述的是Anthony和John将Christian带到肯尼亚后的情况，以及他们后来的决定。根据后文的“So they decided to visit him.”可知，他们非常想念Christian，因此选项C“A year on,Anthony and John missed Christian terribly.”最为合适。
4. 第四个空白处描述的是Anthony和John在肯尼亚与Christian重逢的情景。根据前文的“Very soon the lion appeared. He stopped for a few seconds.”可知，接下来应该描述Christian的反应，选项D“Then,he ran and jumped into Anthony and John's arms.”符合语境。
