For Lee Ann Laraway, polio(脑灰质炎) has made almost everything in life just out of reach. But what her hands can't retrieve, her assistant can. Meet Jeannie, a three-year-old help, has become Lee Ann's arms and legs.
Jeannie understands no fewer than 72 commands. To get a feel for what that means, Lee Ann takes us on a shopping trip in San Jose. First stop: The bank, where she got cash from the teller. From the bank, it's on to the drug store, where Jeannie got a candy bar for Lee Ann. Then Jeannie helped pay the cashier, and got change hack.
When you have a really good working animal, they come and interact with you all the time, Lee Ann said. While there's no argument that Jeannie is an ordinary animal, she wasn't born that way. She was tutored and trained here at a facility that has become the final legacy of one of the Bay Area's most beloved figures.
Canine Companions for Independence sits on twelve acres of land in Santa Rosa donated by late Peanuts cartoonist Charles Shultz, Here, handlers work with specially selected labs for hours a day— but not every dog will make the cut.
The work is serious Business. In the case of hearing dogs, the animals alert their disabled owners to everything from ringing telephones to doorbells.
Other dogs will work with severely disabled patients like eight-year-old Noah Habib of Mountain View who communicates with a special computer. I like it when new people come up to ask me about my dog, he says. People are really interested in the dog and will come over and ask to pet her and ask to play with her, and ask about what she does, and these are people that normally might not approach us and want to talk to Noah, says his Dad.
And back in San Jose Lee Ann is arriving home with Jeannie and her groceries. With just one chore left—opening her own door. You can train a dog to do a lot of things, said Lee Ann. You cannot give them the heart to do the job, and that is what a good working dog has.

(答案→)B 解析：【小题1】本题问“Lee Ann的狗Jeannie不能做什么?”文章第五段第二句谈到，In the case of hearing dogs, the animals alert their disabled owners to everything from ringing telephones to doorbells，也就是说，就帮助听觉的狗来说，它们可以告知主人包括电话铃响、门铃响等任何事，但是并未说为主人接电话，故可以推断B“帮她打电话”不能做到，所以B正确。 A“从银行取现金”。由文章第二段Lee Ann Laraway展示让她的狗Jeannie完成一系列的任务，第一站在银行从出纳员那里拿到现金可知，本项是狗能办到的。 C“替她给收银员付钱”。由文章第二段可知，Jeannie和Lee Ann出了银行到杂货店，Jeannie给Lee Ann找到糖，帮助付钱给收款员，然后把找的钱拿回。因此本项小狗也能办到。 D“开门”。文中最后一段提到小狗还有最后一项任务——开门，所以本项也是狗能办到的。【小题2】C本题问“独立生活犬伴侣是一个什么样的地方?”文中第三段提到Jeannie “wasn't born that way．She was tutored and trained here”，接着就开始对Canine Companions for Independence的介绍，也就是说，“独立生活犬伴侣”就是Jeannie得到训练的地方。故C“普通狗接受训练的地方”正确。 A“严重残疾的儿童获得练习的地方”。这个地方是为狗得到训练后为残疾儿童服务而设置的，而不是为残疾儿童没置的。 B“人们捐钱或捐赠遗产的地方”。第四段第一句说“独立生活犬伴侣”位于Santa Rosa，占地十二英亩，由已故小人物漫画家Charles Shultz捐资建成。这是说明该组织的建立方式而不是运营方式，这里并不是所有人捐款的地方。 D“人们学习经商的地方”。第五段第一句提到，“这工作是个严肃的活”，这里business的意思是“工作”而不是“经商”，本项考查考生对business多项含义的把握。【小题3】A 本题问“下列哪一项能够替换词组‘make the cut’?”这是一道语义题。文章第三段讲到好的工作犬并非生来如此，而是经过训练而成的。接着在第四段第二句说“Here，handlers work with specially selected labs for hours a day—but not every dog will make the cut.”前半句说训犬师每天花好几个小时训练经精心挑选的lasb(即 Labrador retrievers的缩写，一种杂交犬，有叨物归主的习性)，后半句是转折的内容，说不是每只狗都能经过训练达到目的，也就是说成为好的工作犬。故A“成为好的工作犬”正确。 B“成为有益的明星”。本文讲的是训练狗为残疾人服务而不是以表演为目的，所以不应该推断出明星的意思。 C“伤害教练”。 D“伤害自己”。文中要说的是狗训练成功不容易，并没有说训练过程中发生的事。这是对cut一词的歪曲。【小题4】本题问“根据Lee Ann所悦，你无法训练狗做到的事是什么?”文章最后一句“You can train a dog to do a lot of things,”said Lee Ann.“You cannot give them the heart to do the job, and that is what a good working dog has.”也就是说，你可以训练狗做许多事情，但是你不能教它有工作的热心，而只有优秀的工作犬才具备这样的素质。故D“热爱工作”正确。 A“把东西放在人们腿上”。 B“提醒听不见声音的残疾人”。文章第五段第二句说就帮助听觉的狗来说，它们可以告知主人包括电话铃响、门铃响等任何事，可见这是可以被训练出来的。 C“总是和主人交流”。虽然文中没有提到是否可以训练狗这样做，但是题干问的是“根据Lee Ann所说”，所以均非正确选项。

这个问题我还想问问老师呢
