问题     Ten cats in search of owners will spend the next 10 days in a New York store window, their every move caught on camera for a reality TV show on which they will compete for. The show is the creation of a petfood company and will be shown on cable channel Animal Planet, as well as on the Web site www. MeowMixHouse.com. where viewers will be asked to vote off one feline(猫科的) contestant each day. Kitties who get the boot will be adopted into permanent homes.
    Meow MixHouse, owned by Del Monte Foods Company, hopes the show will promote cat adoption-as  well as their products, which will be the only thing on the menu. Passerby taking a gander though a specially rented storefront on Madison Avenue in midtown Manhattan can watch the cats lazing about a luxuriously outfitted cat-sized house that includes sealed-down sofas, beds, a fish tank (with fake fish), kitchen and a porch, all put together by an interior designer.
    "It’ s a Disney World for cats," said Meow Mix’ s Ryan Reed, in charge of ensuring the cats are well-cared for and well-behaved. Volunteers from The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals are also on hand to attend to the needs of the kitty stars.
    Enjoying their final day of obscurity on Monday, the eats seemed unfazed by attention from visiting  media—most of the cats were asleep on the set, which will be unveiled to the public on Tuesday.
The phrase "permanent homes" in Line 5 of the first paragraph probably means ______.
选项
答案Cats will live here a long time or even forever.
解析 这是一道有关词不达意汇和语篇意义推敲的题。 adopt “收养” permanent “永久的”理解，可以写出答案。
