Explanation:

Locate librarian's description

Using the Reading Comprehension Questions knowledge point, we examine the text to find what the librarian says about the chimpanzee. The text states: "It's the lost-story kind of chimpanzee. And if it doesn't find its way back to where it came from soon, it's going to be the gone-forever kind of chimpanzee." The first blank is already filled with "lost-story". The next blank requires the phrase "gone-forever".

Locate chimpanzee's sound

Using the Textual Evidence Extraction knowledge point, we look for the description of the sound made by the chimpanzee. The text states: "The chimpanzee gave a small, plaintive* moan." The sentence in the question is: "The chimpanzee gave a ______, plaintive ______." Comparing this to the text, the first blank should be "small" and the second blank should be "moan".
