Answer 1

分析 可爱的泰迪熊已经遍布世界各地．你不仅可以在玩具商店找到它，就连T恤和海报上都已经有了它的身影．你知道泰迪熊的名字由来吗？
    1902年11月14日，美国总统西奥多•罗斯福来到密西西比解决问题．一天的工作之后，罗斯福去打猎．然而他并没有高兴起来因为他没有找到任何猎物．      
    他的主人为了让罗斯福能够有个成功的狩猎之旅，他把一只小熊绑在树上让罗斯福射击．但罗斯福拒绝了，他让主人把小熊放了．      
    在听过这个故事后，艺术家Clifford Berryman把罗斯福和熊的故事画进了漫画．并且把他发表在《华盛顿邮报》的漫画上． 
     几天后，一个店主看到这个卡通漫画，利用这个小熊做模型，他让他的妻子制作了许多卡通玩具熊．他们以罗斯福的绰号Teddy给小熊命名．1903年初，这些泰迪熊摆在了商店出售，并且很多人来买．

解答 46．D．判断推理题．根据After a day's work，Roosevelt went hunting（打猎），可知一天的工作之后，罗斯福去打猎，打猎应该有猎物，然而却没有打到猎物．所以game的意思为猎物．故选D．
47．B．细节理解题．根据an artist called Clifford Berryman drew a cartoon of Roosevelt and the bear．可知是艺术家 Clifford Berryman 把罗斯福和熊的故事画进了漫画．故选B．
48．A．细节理解题．根据They named them after Roosevelt's nickname（绰号） Teddy．可知他们是以罗斯福的绰号Teddy给小熊起的名字．故选A．
49．B．细节理解题．根据But Roosevelt refused and asked him to set it free．可知罗斯福拒绝了，他让手下把小熊放了．故选B．
