“Whoever did this can keep my car.Please let Benjerman come home,” the notice said.
It is not known whether the thief showed any pity, but almost 30 hours after the 1 pm theft Friday, Kimberly Atkins of Dover and Benjerman,a 12-year-old black retriever(猎犬),were reunited after police located them in Barrington.
“He’s hungry, he’s dirty, but he’s very happy to be home,”Atkins said.
The car was found at about 5 pm Saturday off Route 125 in a swampy area frequented by off-the-road cars and dirt bikes.However, the police couldn’t control Benjerman,and they had to call Atkins to come and get him.
Atkins said the thief cared for Benjerman a little by providing him with some dry cat food.She believed Benjerman ended up drinking some muddy water in the area.
She said they have been together for nearly 11 years after she took him back from a society shelter in Dallas, Texas.
Before Benjerman was found,Atkins and several friends put up notices all over the city and in Somersworth.They also contacted animal shelters,throughout southern New Hampshire and Massachusetts.
The notice stated there was a reward,and also that the dog needed medication.Any caller could remain anonymous(匿名的).
Atkins had parked the car outside a hardware store with the keys inside and gone in to rent a carpet cleaner.
¨It was l0 minutes and I came out and my car was gone along with Benjerman in broad daylight,” Atkins said.The car thief threw Atkins’ wallet and other personal items out of the car before escaping from the scene.

答案
小题1:D
小题2:B
小题3:D
小题4:B
解析
小题1:从文章开头可知一位女士的跑车连同车上的宠物狗Benjerman 一起被偷,丢失后她写了寻物启事,启示上说:“无论谁偷了我的东西,可以留下我的车,但是请兑换我的宠物狗Benjerman”这说明她的宠物狗重要,所以最佳题目应该是D项。
小题2:通读完全文可知Atkins 先从社会的避难所把Benjerman 带回家饲养;一个星期五的下午1点,Atkins 开车到五金店买地毯清洗器,把车停在了去近点的外面,粗心没有拔下车钥匙,等她出来时车和她的宠物狗就被偷了;然后她贴出启示;在车丢失后的约30小时警察发现了她的车和狗;当然Atkins 随后又见到了她的宠物狗Benjerman。所以答案是B。
小题3:从原文可知Atkins 没有拔下车钥匙,所以推断小偷偷车时一定很容易。
小题4:A项中immediately 一词与原文不符;C项与原文第五段相背;D 项中狗被发现的时间错误,应是at about 5 pm Saturday。所以B项正确。

举一反三
Thirty years have passed, but Odland can’t get the memory out of his mind, nor the woman’s kind reaction(反应).She was shocked, regained calmness and, in a kind voice, told the young Odland. “It’s OK. It wasn’t your fault.”When she left the restaurant, she also left the future Fortune 500 CEO(总裁) with a life lesson: You can tell a lot about a person by the way he or she treats the waiter.
Odland isn’t the only CEO to have made this discovery. Rather, it seems to be one of those few laws of the land that every CEO learns on the way up. It’s hard to get a dozen CEOS to agree about anything, but most agree with the Waiter Rule. They say how others treat the CEO says nothing. But how others treat the waiter is like a window into the soul.
Watch out for anyone who pulls out the power card to say something like,“I could buy this place and fire you.”or “I know the owner and I could have you fired.”Those who say such things have shown more about their character(人品) than about their wealth and power.
The CEO who came up with it, or at least first wrote it down, is Raytheon CEO Bill Swanson. He wrote a best-selling book called Swanson’s Unwritten Rules of Management.
“A person who is nice to you but rude to the waiter, or to others, is not a nice person,” Swanson says. “I will never offer a job to the person who is sweet to the boss but turns rude to someone cleaning the tables.”
小题1:What happened after Odland dropped the ice cream onto the woman’s dress?
A.He was fired. |
B.He was blamed. |
C.The woman comforted him. |
D.The woman left the restaurant at once. |
A.his experience as a waiter | B.the advice given by the CEOs |
C.an article in Fortune | D.an interesting best-selling book |
A.Fortune 500 companies | B.the Management Rules |
C.Swanson’s book | D.the Waiter Rule |
A.one should be nicer to important people |
B.CEOs often show their power before others |
C.one should respect others no matter who they are |
D.CEOs often have meals in expensive restaurants |
Then, Zoe received an invitation from an old school friend, Kathy, to come and stay. Kathy and her husband, Huw, had just bought a farm in north-west Wales. Zoe jumped at the chance to spend a weekend away from London, and now, ten months later, she is still on the farm.
"The moment I arrived at Kathy"s farm, I loved it and I knew I wanted to stay." said Zoe. "Everything about my past life suddenly seemed meaningless."
Zoe has been working on the farm since October of last year and says she has no regrets. "It"s a hard life, physically very tiring." she says. "In London 1 was stressed and often mentally exhausted. But this is a good, healthy tiredness. Here, all 1 need to put me in a good mood is a hot bath and one of Kathy"s wonderful dinners."
Zoe says she has never felt bored on the farm. Every day brings a new experience. Kathy has been leaching her how to ride a horse and she has learnt to drive a tractor. Since Christmas, she has been helping with the lambing—watching a lamb being born is unbelievable, she says, "It"s one of the most moving experiences I"ve ever had. I could never go back to city life now." (08上海卷)
