问题     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 thing. They also say that a person has to "work like a dog" if he wants to succeed, so "work like a dog" here means "work very hard". Besides, 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 have 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.
Americans use the word "dog" in many expressions probably because______.

选项 A、there are many dogs in America
B、American people like dogs very much
C、the word "dog" has a lot of meanings
D、it is easy to remember this word

答案B

解析 细节推断题。由题干中的Americans,“dog”,many expressions定位到文章第一段前两句。本题考查美国人在很多表达中用“狗”这个词的原因。定位句提到,美国人喜欢狗、善待狗,并且使用很多含有“狗”这个词的表达,由此可以推测,B)“美国人非常喜欢狗”符合题意。
