Question

【题目】Here is a dog with a lantern (捉灯)in his mouth, he is looking for his master(主人).

Carlo, a lovely dog, had been taught to be useful. The roads, in the place where his master lived, were often so bad that it was not safe for any person to go out without a light on dark nights.

So Carlo's master taught him to carry a lantern for him at night; and he did it as steadily(稳固地) as any boy could have done.

Carlo never trotted(小跑) too far before his master so that the bright light of the lantern might guide his master's steps.

When he came to a deep rut(车辙)or hole in the road, he would turn round to his master, seemed to say, /Take care, there is a hole here. "

The dog's master lived about a mile from the town; and when he could not get home before dark, Carlo used to be sent to him with the lantern. Carlo knew where to go. He also knew the road which his master would take.

But Carlo didn't always find his master right away. When he reached the town, he would run off to a house where his master often was. Still holding his lantern, he would scratch at the street-door with his feet and bark(吠叫); as much as to say, 6/Here am I,

Master, with the lantern, are you ready for home? "

Someone would perhaps come to the door and sa 6/Your master is not here. " Carlo

would growl(嘟哝), seemed to say, "Then he is somewhere else, and I must find him. "

试题分析：这篇短文给我们讲述了一个聪明可爱的小狗，因为他的主人住的地方路很难走，于是主人就教他用嘴叼着灯照明。于是主人晚上没有回来的时候，他就会叼着灯，去给主人照明。他还会去主人在的那个小镇，挨家挨户的去找他的主人

【1】A 细节理解题。根据短文中Carlo, a lovely dog, had been taught to be useful. The roads, in the place where his master lived, were often so bad that it was not safe for any person to go out without a light on dark nights. 可知，Carlo居住的地方道路非常的糟糕，晚上没有灯走夜路的话，非常的不安全。由此可知选A。

【2】D 细节理解题。根据短文中So Carlo's master taught him to carry a lantern for him at night; 以及the bright light of the lantern might guide his master's steps.可知，Carlo教他的小狗在晚上为他带着一盏灯，这样灯光就能为他照亮。由此可知选D。

【3】C细节理解题。根据短文第四、五短的描述可知，当走到难走的那段路的时候，小狗会走在主人的附近，嘴里叼着等，给主人照亮道路。由此可知选C。

【4】D 词义猜测题。根据短文的大意可知，这篇短文讲述了一只给主人照明的小狗，他晚上的时候给主人照亮回家的路。当他找到主人的时候，根据Still holding his lantern, he would scratch at the street-door with his feet and bark(吠叫);可知，他仍然用最叼着等，用他的脚去扒门，并且吠叫。似乎是在告诉主人他来了。从这个句子结构来看，scratch是一个动词，再结合句意，小狗应该用脚去扒们，故应选D。

【5】B主旨大意题。这篇短文给我们讲述了一个聪明可爱的小狗，他的主人住的地方路很难走，于是他晚上就会叼着灯，去给主人照明。他还会去主人在的那个小镇，挨家挨户的去找他的主人。由此可知B选项The dog with the lantern最能概括短文的大意，故选B。
