Question

   A

When I was six, Dad brought home a dog one day, who was called “Brownie”. My brothers and I all loved Brownie and did different things with her. Ore of us would walk her, another would feed her, then there were baths, playing catch and many other games, Brownie, in return. loved each and every one of us. One thing that most touched my heart was that she would go to whoever was sick and just be with them we always felt better when she was around.

One day, as I was getting her food, she chewed up(咬破)one of Dad’s shoes, which had to be thrown away in the end. I knew Dad would be mad and I had to let her know what she did was wrong. When I looked at her and said, ”Bad girl,” she looked down at the ground and then went and hid. I saw a tear in her eyes.

Brownie turned out to be more than just our family pet, she went everywhere with us .People would stop and ask if they could pet her. Of course she’d let anyone pet her. She was just the most lovable dog. There were many times when we’d be out walking and a small child would come over and pull pm her hair. she never barked(吠) or tried to get away. Funny thing is she would smile. This frightened people because they thought she was showing her teeth. Far from the truth, she lovely everyone.

Now many years have passed since Brownie died of old age. I still miss days when she was with us.

解析:

【语篇解读】本篇文章为记叙文。作者给我们讲述了他的家里的一条受到特别宠爱的狗Brownie的种种可爱之处，虽然这只狗已经去世多年，作者对它依然记忆犹新。

【小题1】细节理解题。第一段倒数第二句话的whoever was sick and just be with him说明当家里有人生病的时候，它就陪在身边，最后一句话的be around也说明了这一点。这和B项的company“陪伴；伙伴”吻合。

【小题2】推理判断题。第二段最后一句话的she looked down at the ground 和I saw a tear in her eyes 说明Brownie对咬破了作者的父亲的鞋的悔恨，说明它意识到了自己的错误。

【小题3】推理判断题。第三段首句是主题句，more than just our family pet说明Brownie不仅仅受到作者全家的喜爱，还受到了主人一家之外的几乎所有人的喜爱。 第二句对该句话进行了解释，everywhere说明了它受喜爱的人群之广。

【小题4】细节理解题。第三段第7句话说到了当别人都和Brownie玩的时候，它会笑，所以答案选A。但是这在不熟悉的人眼里会误以为Brownie是生气，倒数第二句的show her teeth就是表示生气。这会让考生误选C项。

【小题5】推理判断题。通读全文，从Brownie陪伴病人，知错就改，特别受人宠爱可以看出来它是一个有爱心的小狗，caring意为“有爱心的”，和Brownie吻合。
