问题     Have you ever been bitten? Of course you have. You are surrounded by living things which might, or do, bite. Even when you rest your head on your pillow, bedbugs are probably nibbling you. They live happily inside
    Take a walk outside and you are a target for " man’s best friend". Hundreds of dog-bite victims visit US emergency rooms daily. Many bites are terrible. To avoid the dogs in your neighborhood, you might want to hike into the desert or the woods. There, you run the risk of bites from rattlesnakes, scorpions, and blood-sucking ticks, not to mention bears, wolves, and mountain lions.
    Speaking of housing, watch out when you touch the corner of your house. Shy but deadly, the black widow spider and the brown recluse spider make themselves comfortable in quiet areas of your closets. One bite from either of them can make you very sick, and occasionally, people may die from such bites. Unfortunately, many people fear all spiders, not just the few dangerous ones. People often squash them or run away from them at first sight, not realizing that most spiders are actually beneficial to man.
    If you’re concerned about bites, don’t forget about rabid (患狂犬病的) animal bites. Any warm-blooded animal can get infected with rabies. Although humans in the US rarely get attacked by rabid animals, the disease is painful and dangerous. You will most likely die if you are not treated properly within 48 hours after being bitten.
In the author’s opinion, ________.

选项 A、no matter what kind of animal bites you, there is no danger at all
B、one should treat rabid animal bites properly within 2 days
C、humans in the US are bitten by rabid animals frequently
D、hundreds of rabid-animal-bite people visit emergency rooms daily in the US

答案B

解析 根据最后一段最后一句“You will most likely die if you are not treated properly within 48 hours after being bitten. ”可知,如果在被患有狂犬病的动物咬后的48小时内没有得到恰当的治疗,你很可能会死亡。由此可推知,被患有狂犬病的动物咬后,应在48小时内进行恰当的治疗,48小时即两天。故选B。
