4.D根据上文“SinceBobbieusedtorespondtothesoundofthecarhorn”可知,为了找到波比,弗兰克要慢慢开车鸣笛,才有可能让波比听到声音,这样波比才会现身。故选D项。5.B根据上文“Bobbieneverappeared.”以及空格后“placingnewspaperadvertisements”可知,弗兰克一家人一直在努力寻找波比。故选B项。6.C根据上文“Afteraweekof5andplacingnewspaperadvertisements”及“hadtogiveupandstartdrivinghome”可知,弗兰克一家人一直在努力寻找波比,但是一直没找到,只能放弃,开车回家。由此可知,大家都很心痛。故选C项。
7.A根据下文“thattheycouldnolongersharetheirhappinesswithbelovedBobbie”可知,波比走失后,一直找不到,所以弗兰克一家人必须接受无法与波比分享快乐的事实。故选A项。8.C根据最后一段中的“Imaginebeing2,500milesfromhomewithnotransportationandcrossingfreezingcoldmountainsanddesertsforhalfayear.”可知,波比穿过冰冻的山脉和沙漠,半年后才回来。“halfayear”和“Sixmonths”相对应,属于同义复现。故选C项。9.A根据下文“Novascreamedout‘Bobbie’”可推测,诺娃当时看到并认出波比时,非常震惊,甚至尖叫着叫它的名字。故选A项。10.B根据上文“Hiseyeswerehalf-cl
