People in the United States love their dogs and treat them well. They use many expressions with the word "dog". Here are some examples: Some people say we live in a "dog-eat-dog world" which means many people are competing for the same things. They also say that a person has to "work like a dog" if he wants to succeed, so "work like a dog" here means to work very hard. Still, people say "Every dog has its day." This means that every person enjoys a successful period during his or her life. If a man tells you that he is "in the doghouse", he might has been punished by his wife. However, the husband may decide that it is best to leave things alone and not to cause more trouble. He might decide "to let sleeping dogs lie".
Dog expressions are also used to describe the weather. "The dog days of summer" refers to the hottest days of the year. A rainstorm may cool the weather, but "to rain cats and dogs" is not what we want.
In this passage, the author wants to______.
选项
A、tell us that dogs are very popular in America
B、introduce some dog expressions and their meanings
C、tell us how to describe the weather with dog expressions
D、show that dog expressions are widely used
答案
B
解析
主旨大意题。本题考查对本文主旨大意的概括能力。归纳全文可知,作者在篇首说。美国人在很多习语中都使用了“狗”这个词,其后列举了几个带有“狗”的习语,并逐个介绍其含义和使用语境,由此判断,作者的意图是介绍含有“狗”的习语及其含义。最具干扰性的选项是D)“告诉我们含有‘狗’的表达被广泛使用”。篇首虽然提到有很多这样的习语,但之后并没有着重讲这些习语是如何被人们广泛使用的,而是解释各个习语的含义,因此B)更为贴切。
