An old man, Mr Miller, loved his puppy. He fed it the best food and paid a dog walker to take Dougal for a walk every day. Every Sunday his grandchildren came to visit him and play with Dougal. He lived a happy life because people would send everything he needed to his door and help him with his housework and gardening.
One Tuesday morning he woke up late, wondering why Dougal had not woken him up for food. When he went into the kitchen, he realized why. Someone had broken in through the back door, and had taken Dougal away. Mr Miller immediately understood whoever had stolen(偷) Dougal must have known him, because Dougal would bark if a stranger tried to take him away.
For two days, Mr Miller stayed in his chair, day and night, thinking. No one came to the door and nobody phoned to ask for money to save Dougal. He went through a list of all of the people Dougal knew. Was it the supermarket delivery guy(送货员), who usually came on Fridays? Was it the pet food delivery guy who came on Saturdays? Was it the gardener who came every Monday? All of a sudden, he realized who it must be and by dinner time, he had his puppy back with him again.
Now, readers, can you guess who stole the puppy? No one had come to the door for two days, but the dog walker should come every day. He didn't come because he knew there was no dog to walk!

答案： 1. D 推理判断题。通读第一段的内容可知,Miller 先生很爱他的小狗。他给它吃最好的食物,并花钱请人每天带它散步。人们会把他需要的各种东西送到他家门口,还帮他打理房子和花园。由此可推知,Miller 先生可能非常富有,并且不需要做杂务。
2. B 推理判断题。根据第二段中的"Dougal would bark if a stranger tried to take him away"和"One Tuesday morning he woke up late"可知,如果陌生人试图把 Dougal 带走,它会吠叫。但 Dougal 被偷的早上,Miller 先生很晚才醒来。由此可推知,Dougal 被偷走的时候,它并没有吠叫,正因为此,Miller 先生意识到偷狗的人认识他。
3. A 细节理解题。根据第一段中的"He fed it the best food and paid a dog walker to take Dougal for a walk every day."可知,遛狗员每天都来。通读第三段的内容可知,超市送货员每周五来 Miller 先生家;宠物食品送货员每周六来 Miller 先生家;园丁每周一来。由此可知,选项 A 符合题意。
4. D 推理判断题。根据最后一段最后两句可知,Miller 先生家已经两天没人来了,而遛狗员应该每天都来。他不来是因为他知道没有狗可遛。由此可推知,是遛狗员偷走了 Dougal。
5. C 主旨大意题。文章围绕被偷走的小狗 Dougal 展开,讲述了 Miller 先生是怎样经过其缜密的思考找回了失踪的小狗,故 C 项"失踪的小狗"可为本文最佳标题。
