题目内容
【题目】 I'm a single person and live with my dog. Jed isn't just my dog. He is my family. He goes everywhere with me. So I was overjoyed last year to hear that Bunnings was allowing dogs on a leash(皮带)- into their stores.
But no sooner had the rule come in than it was quickly repealed(撤销). A little girl in Victoria had walked up to a Jack Russell in a store and been bitten(咬伤). That was it. No more dogs.
I don't know the whole story. But here's what I have to say: dogs bite sometimes and kids are sometimes difficult to control.
There is nothing I love more than a kid who wants to touch Jed. But what's even better is when they ask permission first.
I was at my local dog park last week. It's huge, with an off-leash dog area to one side and a fenced-off kids' playground a good distance away. There was a family there that morning —parents and two young girls playing near the dog area. The elder girl started crying at the sight of Jed—“puppy! There a puppy! "Jed went right up and started licking(舔)her, which only made her cry louder.
My dog was frightened and tried to get away. The little girl ran after him, shouting loudly. The parents did nothing; they just let their kid frighten my dog and then said I should have stopped him from licking her.
While they had a choice to play elsewhere, I did not. So I had to walk Jed away.
“I just don't want to have to meet a dog when I go shopping," said one caller on a radio show yesterday. Look, I get that. But the thing is, I don't always want to have your kid kick the back of my seat for two hours on a plane.
When I lived in the UK and the US, I couldn't walk through the stores without stopping to pat dogs. Why can't we follow their practice?

【解析】
这是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要从作者自身经历出发,表达了作者对于社会上对待动物的不公平现象的看法。
【1】细节理解题。根据第一段中Jed isn't just my dog. He is my family.(杰德不仅仅是我的狗。他是我的家人。)可知杰德对作者来说意义重大。故选B。
【2】细节理解题。根据第二段But no sooner had the rule come in than it was quickly repealed. A little girl in Victoria had walked up to a Jack Russell in a store and been bitten. That was it. No more dogs.(但这条规定刚一实施就很快被废除了。维多利亚州的一个小女孩在一家商店里走向一只杰克罗素犬,结果被咬了。就这样。不能有狗进商店了。)可知Bunnings停止遵守这一规定,因为它想保证顾客的安全。故选D。
【3】细节理解题。根据第六段My dog was frightened and tried to get away. The little girl ran after him, shouting loudly. The parents did nothing; they just let their kid frighten my dog and then said I should have stopped him from licking her.(我的狗吓坏了,想逃跑。小女孩在他后面跑,大声喊叫。父母什么也没做;他们只是让他们的孩子吓唬我的狗,然后说我应该阻止他舔她。)可知在狗公园杰德受到了不公平的待遇。故选B。
【4】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“I just don't want to have to meet a dog when I go shopping," said one caller on a radio show yesterday. Look, I get that. But the thing is, I don't always want to have your kid kick the back of my seat for two hours on a plane.(“我只是不想在购物时遇到一只狗,”昨天在一个广播节目中,一位打电话的人说。我明白了。但是问题是,我并不想让你的孩子在飞机上花两个小时踢我的座椅靠背。)可推知作者认为打电话的人的话语很伤人。故选B。
细节理解题大多是根据文章中的具体信息如事实、例证、原因、过程、论述等进行提问的。抓住文段中的事实和细节是做好该题型的关键,也是做好其它类型问题的基础。该题型几乎都可以在文章中直接找到与答案有关的信息,或是其变体。在一篇短文里大部分篇幅都属于这类围绕主体展开的细节。做这类题一般采用寻读法,即先读题,然后带着问题快速阅读短文,找出与问题和选项有关的词语或句子,再对相关部分进行分析对比,找出答案。正确选项虽然一般不是原文照搬,但是一般是原文的改写,意思不变。如换一个同义词,把否定改为肯定,把肯定改为否定等。如第一小题,根据第一段中Jed isn't just my dog. He is my family.(杰德不仅仅是我的狗。他是我的家人。)可知杰德对作者来说意义重大。故选B。
