Ⅲ.阅读理解

(A)

When you are learning English, you find it not clever to put an English sentence, word for word, into your own language. Take the sentence “How do you do?” as an example. If you look up each word in the dictionary, one at a time, what is your translation? It must be a wrong sentence in your own language.

Languages do not just have different sounds, they are different in many ways. Its important to master(掌握) the rules(规则) for word order in the study of English, too. If the sentences put words in a wrong order, the listeners cant understand the speakers sentences easily. Sometimes when the order is changed, the meaning of the sentence doesnt change. Lets see the difference between the two pairs of sentences.

“She only likes apples.” “Only she likes apples.”

“Ive seen the film already.” “I have already seen the film.”

When you are learning English, you must do your best to get the spirit(精神实际) of the language and use it as the English speakers do.

Pets are a part of peoples lives. Some pets are like family. In these days, many people have pets at home and spend a lot of money improving their lives. In fact, in some parts of the world, pets get real VIP treatment(待遇). VIP usually means Very Important People, but here VIP means Very Important Pets!

When you want to give Fido or Kitty a holiday, or when you are going away on business, you can choose from many dog and cat hotels. Some have many different good services(服务). Dogs can exercise inside or outside, and cats have a large place with something to climb on and play with. The guests get the best food during their stays at these hotels.

There are other special services at these hotels. Imagine you are traveling and you want to see your pet: the hotel can put a video camera in the pets room. So you can see your Fido or Kitty on TV.

The hotels usually have good groomers(美容师): They often bath and take the best hair care for the pets. But you need to make an appointment because people are usually very busy taking care of pets.
