Question

A woman whose sports car was stolen with her dog in it put up notices all over the area that made it clear getting back her pet was more important than her car．

“Whoever did this can keep my car．Please let Benjerman come home,” the notice said．

It is not known whether the thief showed any pity, but almost 30 hours after the 1 pm theft Friday, Kimberly Atkins of Dover and Benjerman，a 12-year-old black retriever（獵犬），were reunited after police located them in Barrington．

“He’s hungry, he’s dirty, but he’s very happy to be home，”Atkins said．

The car was found at about 5 pm Saturday off Route 125 in a swampy area frequented by off-the-road cars and dirt bikes．However, the police couldn’t control Benjerman，and they had to call Atkins to come and get him．

Atkins said the thief cared for Benjerman a little by providing him with some dry cat food．She believed Benjerman ended up drinking some muddy water in the area．

She said they have been together for nearly 11 years after she took him back from a society shelter in Dallas, Texas．

 Before Benjerman was found，Atkins and several friends put up notices all over the city and in Somersworth．They also contacted animal shelters，throughout southern New Hampshire and Massachusetts.

The notice stated there was a reward，and also that the dog needed medication．Any caller could remain anonymous（匿名的）．

Atkins had parked the car outside a hardware store with the keys inside and gone in to rent a carpet cleaner.

¨It was l0 minutes and I came out and my car was gone along with Benjerman in broad daylight，” Atkins said．The car thief threw Atkins’ wallet and other personal items out of the car before escaping from the scene．

Answer 1

【小題1】D

【小題2】B

【小題3】D

【小題4】B

解析:

【小題1】從文章開頭可知一位女士的跑車連同車上的寵物狗Benjerman 一起被偷，丟失后她寫了尋物啟事，啟示上說：“無論誰偷了我的東西，可以留下我的車，但是請(qǐng)兌換我的寵物狗Benjerman”這說明她的寵物狗重要，所以最佳題目應(yīng)該是D項(xiàng)。

【小題2】 通讀完全文可知Atkins 先從社會(huì)的避難所把Benjerman 帶回家飼養(yǎng)；一個(gè)星期五的下午1點(diǎn)，Atkins 開車到五金店買地毯清洗器，把車停在了去近點(diǎn)的外面，粗心沒有拔下車鑰匙，等她出來時(shí)車和她的寵物狗就被偷了；然后她貼出啟示；在車丟失后的約30小時(shí)警察發(fā)現(xiàn)了她的車和狗；當(dāng)然Atkins 隨后又見到了她的寵物狗Benjerman。所以答案是B。

【小題3】從原文可知Atkins 沒有拔下車鑰匙，所以推斷小偷偷車時(shí)一定很容易。

【小題4】A項(xiàng)中immediately 一詞與原文不符；C項(xiàng)與原文第五段相背；D 項(xiàng)中狗被發(fā)現(xiàn)的時(shí)間錯(cuò)誤，應(yīng)是at about 5 pm Saturday。 所以B項(xiàng)正確。
