參考答案：B
參考解析： 參考譯文
很多人在自己的生活中都會有或者想有一只狗來作為自己的生活小伙伴。然而，當你想買狗的時候，你需要一方面考慮你自己需要什么樣的伙伴，另一方面要考慮你自己的生活環境是否適合養狗。在你選擇要買什么狗的問題上，最好聽一聽專家的意見。當然，做決定部分還取決于基本常識。
不同的狗適合于執行不同的任務。因此如果你想買一只狗看家的話，你就需要考慮狗的大小和性格。除非你住在鄉村，可以讓它自由奔跑;否則，你就要在它年輕時投入大量的時間來訓練它，并自始至終給予它所需要的鍛煉。
狗是需要情感交流的動物，它不像貓一樣，只需要有一個安樂窩就心滿意足了，狗對主人很忠誠，但它也需要主人對它關愛有加。買狗要優先考慮它是否快樂地生活于你所提供的環境。另外，買狗的最佳時間是在狗出生后6到8周，這樣的話，小狗才會把對母狗的感情轉移到主人身上。如果小狗在三個月內還沒有和人建立起情感的話，那么它就只會和狗有感情。它們太易害羞，這種狗往往不適合當做寵物帶出門去。
B【解析】事實細節題。文章中提到了買狗的時候先要決定買什么樣的，狗的大小、特征也要考慮，而且專家的建議也非常重要，所以A、C、D都是正確的。關于“comlnon sense”，是這樣說的：“inpart the decision depends on common sense.”in part在句中意為“部分地/在某種程度上”，所以選擇狗的時候，common sense并不是最重要的，而是部分因素。因此只有B不符合原文。

參考答案：C
參考解析：C【解析】事實細節題。根據文章的內容，買狗的時候并沒有提到要考慮狗的顏色、狗的價格，以及狗能否和家中的其他寵物很好地相處。但是提到了要考慮狗能否適應周圍的環境。“whether thedog is likely to be happy in the surroundings you can provide.”
單選修改

B.They are less likely to be shy with human beings.

參考答案：D
參考解析：D【解析】推理判斷題。從文章的最后，If baby dogs have not estab—lished a relationship with the human being until they are over threemonths old，their strong relationship will always be with dogs.可知。要買三個月以下的狗，是因為它容易和它的主人建立感情。
