【题目】One morning, Ann’s neighbor Tracy found a lost dog wandering around the local elementary school. She asked Ann if she could keep an eye on the dog. Ann said that she could watch it only for the day.

Tracy took photos of the dog and printed off 400 FOUND fliers (传单), and put them in mailboxes. Meanwhile, Ann went to the dollar store and bought some pet supplies, warning her two sons not to fall in love with the dog. At the time, Ann’s son Thomas was 10 years old, and Jack, who was recovering from a heart operation, was 21 years old.

Four days later Ann was still looking after the dog, whom they had started to call Riley. When she arrived home from work, the dog threw itself against the screen door and barked madly at her. As soon as she opened the door, Riley dashed into the boys’ room where Ann found Jack suffering from a heart attack. Riley ran over to Jack, but as soon as Ann bent over to help him the dog went silent.

“If it hadn’t come to get me, the doctor said Jack would have died,” Ann reported to a local newspaper. At this point, no one had called to claim the dog, so Ann decided to keep it.

The next morning Tracy got a call. A man named Peter recognized his lost dog and called the number on the flier. Tracy started crying, and told him, “That dog saved my friend’s son.” Peter drove to Ann’s house to pick up his dog, and saw Thomas and Jack crying in the window. After a few moments Peter said, “Maybe Odie was supposed to find you, maybe you should keep it.”

【解析】试题分析:这是一篇记叙文。一天,Tracy在当地学校附近捡到一只流浪狗,把它交代给邻居Ann照顾,自己去找狗的主人。Ann答应只照顾这只狗一天。结果在没找到狗主人之前Ann和她的两个儿子一直照顾这只狗而且很快喜欢上了它。Ann的大儿子有心脏病,多亏了这只狗帮Ann及时救了她儿子,所以当狗主人来认领狗时全家人都舍不得它走。最终,狗留在了Ann家里,成为家庭一员。

1A考查细节理解。根据第二段开头句子“Tracy took photos of the dog and printed off 400 FOUND fliers…”可知,Tracy照了狗的照片,印了400张传单。这都是为了找到狗的主人。故选A

3D考查判断推理。根据第四段Ann跟报社说的话,“If it hadn’t …”,如果不是狗领着Ann找到JackJack可能就死了。也就是狗救了Jack的命,所以可以推断Ann对狗很感激,感激它救了她儿子的命。故选D

4C考查细节理解。根据第五段句子“A man named Peter recognized his lost dog…”可知,PeterTracy打电话的目的是为了领回他丢失的狗。故选C

What Is Emotional Eating?
Emotional eating is when people use food as a way to deal with feelings instead of satisfying hunger.Have you ever finished a whole bag of chips out of boredom or downed cookie after cookie while preparing for a big test? But when done a lot — especially without realizing it — emotional eating can affect weight, health, and overallwell-being.
Not many of us make the connection between eating and ourfeelings.
One of the biggest myths about emotionaleating is that it’s caused by negative feelings.Yes, peopleoften turn to food when they’re stressed out, lonely, sad, anxious, or bored.But emotionaleating can be linked to positive feelings too, like the romance of sharingdessert on Valentine’s Day or the celebration of a holiday feast.Sometimesemotional eating is tied to major life events, like a death or a divorce.
Emotional eating patterns can be learned: A child who is givencandy after a big achievement may grow up using candy as a reward for a jobwell done. It’s not easy to “unlearn” patterns ofemotional eating.But it ispossible.And it startswith an awareness of what’s going on.
We’re all emotional eaters to a degree.But for somepeople emotional eating can be a real problem, causing serious weight gain orother problems.The troublewith emotional eating is that once the pleasure of eating is gone, the feelingsthat cause it remain. That’s why it helps to know the differencebetween physical hunger and emotional hunger.
Next time you reach for a snack, wait and think about which typeof hunger is driving it.
A.Believe it ornot, we’ve all been there.
B.If a cryingboy gets some cookies, he may link cookies with comfort.

D.And you oftenmay feel worse about eating the amount or type of food you like.
E.Understandingwhat drives emotional eating can help people take steps to change it.
F.Boys seem toprefer hot, homemade comfort meals, while girls go for chocolate and ice cream.
