M: Hey, neighbor, can you do me a favor? My wife and I are going out of town this weekend, and I was wondering if you could take care of some of our animals while we’re gone. You know our dog, Jaws, don’t you?
W: Yeah. My leg still hurts from the last incident.
M: Hey, he’s just a playful little beast. He likes to bark a little, and his bark is worse than his bite. Just feed him a can of dog food a day, and make sure he has plenty of water in his dish. [Oh] And then, take him for a walk around the block.
W: Well, how about if I just throw a Frisbee over the fence to give him some exercise? Wouldn’t that work?
M: Ah, and then, he likes to watch the 3: 00 soap opera on Channel 4 [What?]... and brush his teeth after you give him some doggie treats around 4: 00. And, then brush his fur for about twenty minutes. He tends to shed this time of year. [Ah, what?] And then scratch him around the ears. Otherwise, he feels neglected.
W: Man, you really pamper your dog. Is that it?
M: Well, and then there’s Claws.
W: Claws? Who’s Claws?
M: Oh, he’s the cat we adopted from the animal shelter, but he’s a little temperamental.
W: What do you mean "temperamental"?
M: Well, he has mood swings [Mood swings?], but he’s been doing better since he’s been going to the animal therapist. So, be sure to feed him a half cup of cat food two times a day [What? A therapist... ], and don’t forget to put on some soft classical music during his nap time at 2: 40 p. m. But don’t let him out of the house because he might run away and chase the neighbor’s dog.
W: You have some high-maintenance animals.
M: Not really. And, don’t forget to change the cat litter daily, or he might have an accident on the carpet.
[Oh. great. ] And finally, there’s Buttercup.
W: Buttercup? Who’s Buttercup... ? I’m afraid to ask.
M: Ah, she’s a sweetie [What?]... if you know how to handle her right. [Oh. great. ] Wait. Let me get her for you. Here you are.
W: That’s... That’s a snake... [Hold her.] That’s a big snake with big fangs. Does the snake go to a therapist, too?
M: Of course not... just an anger-management class.
W: Oh! What?
M: I’m joking. Buttercup is a very docile creature, and she never bites anyone she likes. If she doesn’t, you’ll know because she starts hissing and staring at you... . kind like what she’s doing now. WrWell, I’m leaving. You must be going out of your mind to think I’m going to watch a zoo full of misunderstood animals. You’d better hire some professional help ’cause I wouldn’t watch them even if you paid me a million dollars.
Questions:
22. What is one of the woman’s concerns about the dog?
23. What is Shawn supposed to do between 3: 00-4: 00 p. m. for the dog?
24. What can we infer from the conversation on the snake’s reaction to Shawn?
25. What is Shawn’s final response to Norman?
选项 A、It can be somewhat aggressive.
B、It eats too much food at one time.
C、The dog might mess on his carpet.
D、It barks too loudly.
答案A
解析 细节题．女士说她的腿伤还没有好，根据上下文知道可能是被男士的狗咬了，而且她说how about if I just throw a Frisbee over the fence to give him some exercise，从她不敢遐狗这点来看．她很怕这只狗．所以正确答案是It can be somewhat aggressive．(它有时候很凶．)选项D的bark too loudly虽然男士也提到了，但显然这不是女士担心的问题;可以排除选项C，The dog might mess on the carpet，因为这个男士介绍他的猫的时候说don’t forget to change the cat litter daily，or he might have an accident onthe carpet．(别忘了每天给猫更换尿盆，不然他会在地毯上方便．)选项B，狗吃得太多，在文中没有提及。所以本题答案为A。
