阅读下面短文,从每题所给的四个选项A、B、C、D中选出最佳选项。

  Don't try telling Mark Bouch that dogs are man's best friends. His pet Keilar helped land him in prison.

  She dropped his package of amphetamine(安非他明) at the feet of police as they began a search of his house.

  Bouch, 26, was confident that the two officers would not find the package after he hid it in the bathroom.

  But he failed to make allowances for dogs' natural instincts and now he is starting a nine-month prison sentence.

  Michelle Lockhart, 20, Mark's girlfriend at the time, said yesterday:“I put the dogs into the bathroom to get them out of the way. The next thing I knew, Keilar had a package in her mouth. Mark had hidden it in the bathroom and it was just on the floor in there.”

  “I couldn't believe it when the dog came out and put it right in front of the policemen.” “It was just following its instinct to pick things up. The police looked as surprised as I was and Keilar just looked really pleased with herself. She really gave the game away. I haven't spoken to Mark since it happened.”

  The police had arrived at the couple's home in Wigton, Cumbria, after a warning. They were puzzled to see one of their suspect's pets run out from behind a chair with a package in her jaws.

  It is believed Keilar had found the drugs in the bathroom before moving quickly down behind the furniture and then presenting the officers with her find. Detective Constable(警官) James Little, who was in charge of the case, said:“Somebody had a bag of amphetamine and when the police arrived, it disappeared, rather rapidly. The dog, following its natural instinct, went and picked it up in its mouth and brought it back.”

  Bouch, who has 82 previous convictions(被判有罪的) mostly for dishonesty, had denied(否认) possessing amphetamine with intent to supply but was convicted at Carlisle Crown Court.

  His pets are being cared for by relatives while he is in prison.

  Lockhart has been sentenced to 240 hours' community service for the same charge.

  The judge said she escaped because of her immaturity(未成熟) and lack of previous convictions.

Until a few months ago, he was a butler(管家) in one of the more expensive residential buildings in Manhattan. But now, Nepal-born Indra Tamang is the owner of two multi-million dollar apartments in the same building.

    The former owner - his former employer, Ruth Ford - died last year and left the apartments  to Mr Tamang in her will.

    Mr Tamang is happy but quickly points out that his good fortune did not come easily. "I am happy and have been touched by the generosity of the Ford family," he says. "I never expected that I will be given the ownership of these apartments. But I have been working for the family for the last 36 years, devotedly, with honesty and dedication(奉献). So my hard work has been rewarded."

    Mr Tamang was 21 when he was brought from Nepal by Charles Ford, a writer and a photographer. Mr Ford died in 2002; his sister, actress Ruth Ford, then took charge and told Mr Tamang that he was like a brother to her after Charles's death.

    Mrs Ford died aged 98. During the last five years of her life, she lost her eyesight and also developed speech problems. Mr Tamang looked after her most of the time and took care of her medicines and food.

    He also worked with Charles Ford on various photography projects, which he now wants to keep as the photographer's legacy(遗产). He hopes to organize exhibitions of Mr Ford's photographs and edit a book of his works.

Mr Tamang plans to sell the bigger, three-bedroom apartment to pay the taxes he owes to the government on his legacy. He says: "The rules of the building might be a problem, as they require a minimum monthly income to qualify to live as owner of apartments. I have my small house here but I am happy with it,"

   Mr Tamang has learnt his lesson from the life of his employers and plans to use his money with great caution. "I think one should save money for old age. That's when you need it the most to get care," he says. 

1.Mr Tamang treated the legacy as __________.

A. a reward    B. a punishment   C. business   D. a gift

2.What DIDN’T Mr Tamang do in the Ford family?

A. Show Mr Ford's works in the exhibition.

3.Mr Tamang wants to sell one apartment to _______. 

A. buy the small house

B. pay the government the tax of the apartments

C. edit a book of Charles Ford's photographs

D. move into the expensive apartments as soon as possible

4.What lesson does Mr Tamang learn from the Ford family? 

A. To find a good butler.

B. To spend money thoughtfully.

C. To save money for children.

D. To get good care when people get old.

5.What can we know from the passage?

  “Little lies” sometimes come to easily to us that we don't even consider them to be lies.Read about these lies of everyday life:

  1.Lying about your age or your kid's age to get a cheaper ticket.

  2.Telling the host of a dinner party that the terrible food he prepared is wonderful.

  3.Lying to your aunt about how much you love the gift she gave you-the one that you really hate.

  4.Telling a friend with a terrible haircut that she looks great.

  5.Lying to a friend about how much you want to see her again when you really don't

  6.Telling the salesperson who calls when you're watching TV that you're very busy.

  Are these serious lies?Probably not, but if you would lie about your age to a stranger, what's going to stop you from lying about something more serious later?If we tell a lie or act dishonestly and get what we want, that might make us feel good today.But what about tomorrow?The future results of our lies are uncertain.

  Still, no one is saying that everyone can or should be completely honest all the time.More people lie, often for a good reason.Lies are told all the time and are part of our everyday social life.Many times people lie to protect the feelings of other people, and there's nothing wrong with that.Honesty is usually the best policy, but like any other policy, you have to make exceptions.
