13．A butcher watching over his shop was really surprised when he saw a dog coming inside the shop．He went over to the dog and noticed it had a note in hits mouth．He took the note and it read"Can I have 12sausages and a leg of lamb，please．The dog has money in his mouth，as well．"
The butcher looked carefully and was surprised to find that there was really a ten dollar note there．So he took the money and put the sausages and lamb in a bag，placing it in the dog's mouth．The butcher was so impressed，and since it was about closing time，he decided to shut up shop and follow the dog．
So off he went．He followed the dog to a bus stop．The dog stopped and started looking at the timetable．The dog checked out the time，and then sat on one of the seats provided．Along came a bus．The dog walked around to the front，looked at the number，and went back to its seat．Another bus came．Again the dog went around to the front，looked at the number and climbed on．The butcher，by now，open-mouthed，followed it onto the bus．
The bus traveled through the town and out into the suburbs．Eventually the dog got up，and moved to the front of the bus．It stood on two back paws and pushed the button to stop the bus．Then it got uff with groceries still in its mouth．
Well，the dog and the butcher were walking along the road，and then the dog turned into a house．it walked up the path，and dropped the groceries on the step．Then it walked back down the path，took a big run，and threw itself against the door．Then again，it threw himself against it．There's no answer at the house．so the dog waited at the door．
The butcher watched as a big guy opened the door，and started shouting at it．The butcher ran up，and stopped the guy．"Why do you shout at the dog？It is really a genius．"The guy responded，"You call this clever？This is the second time this week that this stupid dog's forgotten its key．"

分析 本文是篇記敘文，講了一只聰明的狗可以獨自為主人買東西，甚至獨自選擇正確的公交車回家．而它的主人卻因為狗忘記了帶鑰匙而罵它愚蠢．故事告訴我們，我們中總有一些人身在福中不知福，難以滿足．
解答 56．A 標題歸納題．根據全文內容，講述一只可以獨自為主人買東西，甚至獨自選擇正確的公交車回家的狗，所以，標題用一只聰明的狗，很切題．故選A．
57．B 推理判斷題．根據第一段的內容可知，沒有主人帶著，這只狗自己一個人出現在肉鋪里，令老板很吃驚．故選B．
58．D 推理判斷題．根據前文內容，狗獨自去為主人買東西，獨自坐公交回家．這么聰明的狗，在文章的最后一段This is the second time this week that this stupid dog's forgotten its key．它的主人卻因為它忘記帶鑰匙而罵它愚蠢．故選D．
59．B 推理判斷題．根據倒數第二段的最后一句和最后一段的第一句There's no answer at the house．so the dog waited at the door．The butcher watched as a big guy opened the door，and started shouting at it．可知，狗是在敲門．故選B．
60．D 細節理解題．根據第二段最后一句The butcher was so impressed，and since it was about closing time，he decided to shut up shop and follow the dog．可知，屠夫很好奇，所以跟蹤這只狗．A表述正確．根據第三段倒數二、三句Along came a bus．The dog walked around to the front，looked at the number，and went back to its seat．Another bus came．Again the dog went around to the front，looked at the number and climbed on．可知，狗看看公交車數字，上了第二輛車，因為第一輛不是正確的路線．故B表述正確．根據第四段最后兩句It stood on two back paws and pushed the button to stop the bus．Then it got off with groceries still in its mouth．狗按了按鈕，然后帶著所購之物下了公交車．由此可知，要下車就要按鈴讓駕駛員知道．故C表述正確．文中并沒有提到狗會被主人攆走，故D不正確，故選D．
