Risk Loving It
Do you know how it is when you want something so much it hurts? That's the way it was with me on my 11th birthday. I didn't know then that getting something doesn't mean it will always be yours.
It was a Saturday. Dad gave me $25 to my own birthday gift. While passing a pet shop, I found a little dog called Yorky. When he saw me he barked twice, pawing(挠)the window. I went inside and reached down to pet him; he licked(舔)my hand. I bought York at once. Since then, Yorky followed me everywhere, often jumping up and down with excitement. I believed he was mine forever.
It happened in February. I was going home from school as usual, and I stopped three blocks away to whistle for Yorky. He didn't come. I whistled again. Then I began to run. I stopped before I got to the street in front of our house. I could see him lying still in the middle of the street on his side. I saw the tire marks. I knew he was dead.
Then I put all my energy into baseball. At least I was tired at night and could sleep without missing Yorky. One afternoon, I was halfway home when I noticed this thing following me. It was the funniest-looking dog you've ever seen. "Get away from me! I don't like dogs," I shouted. But for two days it kept showing up at my door. I began to feed it when Dad got home from work and said, "Go ahead. Risk loving it." Then I held the dog up in my arms and cried like a baby.
I decided to have Yorky because he_____.
A、ran around with excitement
B、touched me with his paw
C、went after me everywhere
D、greeted me friendly
【正确答案】:D
【题目解析】:When he saw me he barked twice, pawing(挠)the window. I went inside and reached down to pet him; he licked(舔)my hand. 这几句表达了在看到“我”之后Yorky的反映,A选项不正确,并没有兴奋的围着我跑,B选项,用爪子碰了我一下也没有体现,C选项到处跟着我也并不是我买下它的原因。D选项友好地和我打招呼,以上行文都可以归结为打招呼的一种方式,因此D选项正确。
