Question

In Canada you can find dogs, horses, etc., in almost every family. These are their pets. People love these pets and think they are their good friends. Before they keep them at their houses, they take them to animal hospital to give them injection (注射) so that they won’t catch disease(疾病). They have special animal food stores, though they can get animal food in almost every store. Some people spend around two hundred Canadian dollars a month on animal food. When you visit people’s homes, they would be very glad to show you their pets and they are very proud of them. You will also find almost every family has a bird feeder in their garden. All kinds of birds are welcomed to come and have a good meal. They are free to come and go and nobody can kill any animals in Canada. They have a law against killing wild animals. If you killed an animal, you would be punished（懲罰）.
Old people in Canada have many reasons to like animals. One of them might be: their family tie is not as close as ours. When children grow up, they leave their parents and start their own career (事業), then the old will feel lonely. And pets can make them happy. They can be good friends and never leave them alone.

解析【小題1】本文的第一行提到幾乎在每個家庭你都可以找到寵物，后文提到人們喜歡寵物，把寵物作為他們的好朋友，有寵物醫院，寵物商店等等，所以這篇文章告訴我們加拿大人喜歡在家養寵物，故本題應選A。
【小題2】本文的第三、四行提到把寵物帶到醫院給他們進行注射，是為了使他們不會患上疾病，也就是不會得病，故本題選C。
【小題3】劃線的單詞之后的句子中提到所有的鳥都是受歡迎的，可以到此次吃上美味的一餐，故單詞feeder應該是放食物的器皿，選項中意思符合的是投食器，故本題選C。
【小題4】在倒數后兩行提到老人感到孤獨，寵物能夠使他們開心，成為他們的好朋友，所以說寵物能夠成為老人好的伙伴，故本題選D。
