Question

【题目】HI! I’m Harry. Life used to be a little difficult for me. The muscles（肌肉） in my arms and legs are weak. I have to be in a wheelchair all day. I can’t use my legs at all, and also can’t do many things with my hands. If I drop something, it stays there until someone picks it up for me. I can’t open doors or turn the lights on and off. Carrying things I need for school is a problem too.

Now things are easier. I have a helping hand. Pete is a golden dog that has been trained（被训练） to help kids like me. Pete had been at dog training school for two years to learn how to do different tasks. I had to be trained too. I had to learn how to give Pete instructions and how to take care of him.

When Pete is working, he doesn’t play around. My friends don’t pet him or call him when he is working. He can pull my wheelchair and pick up things I drop. Pete carries my books and lunch on his back. He pushes the button（按钮） on the school lift and opens some kinds of doors. He even knows how to turn the lights on.

But best of all, Pete is here when I need a friend.

【6】D

【解析】

【1】B细节理解题。根据第一段The muscles(肌肉) in my arms and legs are weak. I have to be in a wheelchair all day.可知哈里的手臂和腿肌肉很弱。他不得不整天坐在轮椅上。所以选B。

【2】C细节理解题。根据第一段中If I drop something, it stays there until someone picks it up for me.在一开始哈里掉了东西只能等人帮他捡起，所以选C。

【3】A细节理解题。根据第二段中I have a helping hand. Pete is a golden dog that has been trained to help kids like me.的描述可知哈里有一个帮手皮特，所以选A。

【4】A词义猜测题。根据上句Pete had been at dog training school for two years to learn how to do different tasks. I had to be trained too.可知此句是说我必须也受训练。学习如何给皮特指令和如何照顾他。所以该选A。

【5】B细节理解题。根据短文第三段描述可知皮特能做很多事情，但是没有它能打扫房间的描述，所以选B。

【6】D细节理解题。联系短文的描述可知作者认为它不只是一个帮手，还是一个朋友，所以选D。
