第九组.阅读理解AThey already guide blind and disabled people；now dogs are to be trained to help people with dementia(痴呆) or Alzheimers. Alzheimers can make people confuse night and day or forget basic things such as washing and drinking enough water.The dogs will be trained to respond to sound triggers(触发器) in the home that make them perform tasks. The duties will include reminding their owners to take medicine, as well as encouraging them to eat, drink and sleep regularly.The idea was developed by design students at the Glasgow School of Art and will now be put into practice by Alzheimes Scotland and Dogs for the Disabled. The first dogs will be distributed to four Scottish couples, where one of the partners is in the early stages of dementia. 670,000 people in Britain have dementia and one in three over 65 will develop the condition. By 2021 this is expected to rise to one million.Joyce Gray of Alzheimers Scotland said, “People in the early stages of dementia are still able to live a relatively normal life, and dogs help to maintain routine.” Another advantage of using the pets as companions is that dogs can give them a sense of silent support and companionship. Ms Gray said, “The evidence is that people may forget familiar faces but not pets. Its such a strong bond that people often remember them longest. People dont need to communicate verbally(口头上) but they can still interact. You can have a speechless bond.”Helen McCain, director of Dogs for the Disabled, said, “People with dementia often forget to take medicine. If a dog presents them with a bag with pills in it theres a greater chance of them taking it. The dog would also encourage the owner to take them out for walks, ensuring they keep exercising and interacting with other people.”体裁：应用文题材：新闻报道主题：训练狗来帮助残疾人语篇导读：将狗加以培训以帮助那些盲人及残疾人已成为现实。现在人们正在进行一项新任务，即将狗进行训练用来为患痴呆的人提供帮助。1In Britain people with dementia _.Aare likely to increase in numberBare mostly over 65 years oldCwill be trained to respond to sound triggersDwill be able to live a relatively normal life【解析】A细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句可知在英国患老年痴呆症的人可能会增多，故答案为A项。2The dogs are trained to perform tasks by _.Amaking some sound signalsBcommunicating with the patientsCreminding the patients by barkingDreacting to some sound triggers【解析】D细节理解题。根据第二段第一句可知人们训练狗对某种发声器做出反应以完成任务，故答案为D项。3What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 4 refer to?AFaces.BTriggers.CPets.DCompanions.【解析】C词义猜测题。根据本句上面一句内容可推知them指的是pets。4What is mainly talked about in the passage?AThe idea of dementia dogs was developed by students.BDogs are trained to assist Alzheimers patients.CBritish people with Alzheimers are in poor condition.DThe dementia dogs perform most duties of a doctor.【解析】B主旨大意题。本文首段提出了本文主题，即now dogs are to be trained to help people with dementia (痴呆)or Alzheimers.故答案为B项。BIf theres one thing the British are good at, its watching telly. You may think the Americans would beat us at that, but weve taken and turned it into an art form. Like most people, our favourite TV subject is ourselves, which has led to a number of shows aiming to be as British as possible. So if you want to learn how to be British, sit down to a few episodes of these distinctly British shows.DOCTOR WHOPolitical aside, Doctor Who owes its long television life not only to a brilliant central character, terrifying alien foes and intelligent scriptwriting, but also to a distinctly British way of doing things. If the Earth is the Doctors favourite planet, its clear that Britain is his favourite country.SHERLOCKThe global popularity of the modernized Sherlock Holmes series has proven yet again that no amount of big blockbuster allgunsblazing cop shows can compete with the reserved and sharp detective work of one of Britains most wellloved characters. Benedict Cumberbatch has been rightly lauded for his depiction of the fastthinking private eye, which has proven again we British are good at more than drinking tea.BLACKADDERSimilar to the Pythons, the brilliance of Blackadder is set in its genius application of witty and classically British humor. From the dulcet tones of lead man Rowan Atkinson to the clumsy sidekick Tony Robinson, theres no better show for telling what makes the British British and having a good laugh at it, including an entire season of pointing fun at the French, one of the most British activities.FRIENDSI know what youre thinkingFriends is an American show, about Americans living in America! How can it be distinctly British? But perhaps youre not aware that, apart from Season 1, Friends is written entirely by British writers, and if you watch the first season in comparison to the others, the difference really shows. British sense of humor cant be replicated artificially. Its a fine art by a natural hand. As an English student, I figureFriends is, and although they speak in American accents, a British！体裁：说明文题材：社会文化主题：透过英剧了解英国人语篇导读：本文通过介绍英国十分受欢迎的四部电视剧来分析真正的英国人到底是什么样子。5If you hunger to laugh, _ is the best choice.ASherlockBBlackadderCFriends DDoctor Who【解析】B细节理解题。根据文章BLACKADDER标题下的classically British humor 及theres no better show for telling what makes the Birtish British and having a good laugh at it可知，黑爵士展示了经典的英式幽默，是让你发笑的最佳选择，故选B项。6What is stressed by the text?A.
