问题 共用题干Every Dog Has His Say
Kimiko Fukuda always wondered what her dog was trying to say. Whenever she put on makeup,it would pull at her sleeve.______(1)When the dog barks,she glances at a small electronic gadget（装置）. The following “human” translation appears on its screen: “Please take me with you”“I realized that's how he was feeling.”says Fukuda.
The gadget is called Bowlingual,and it translates dog barks into feelings. People laughed when the Japanese toymaker Takara Company made the world's first dog-human translation machine in 2002.But 300,000 Japanese dog owners bought it.______(2)
“Nobody else had thought about it,”said Masahiko Kajita,who works for Takara.“ We spend so much time training dogs to understand our orders;what would it be like if we could understand dogs?”
Bowlingual has two parts.______(3)The translation is done in the gadget using a da-tabase containing every kind of bark.
Based on animal behavior research,these noises are divided into six categories:happi-ness,sadness,frustration,anger,declaration and desire.______(4)In this way,the data-base scientifically matches a bark to an emotion,which is then translated into one of 200 phrases.
When a visitor went to Fukuda's house recently,the dog barked a loud“bow wow”. ______(5)It was followed by“I'm stronger than you”as the dog growled and sniffed（嗅） at the visitor.
The product will be available in US pet stores this summer for about US$120.It can store up to 100 barks,even recording the dog's emotions when the owner is away.______(2)A:.A wireless microphone is attached to the dog's collar,which sends information to the gadget held by the owner.B: Nobody really knows how a dog feels.C: This translated as“Don't come this way”.D: More customers are expected when the English version is launched this summer.E: Now,the Japanese girl thinks she knows.F: Each one of these emotions is then linked to a phrase like“Let's play”,“Look at me”, or“Spend more time with me”.
选项 ______(2)
A:.A wireless microphone is attached to the dog's collar,which sends information to the gadget held by the owner.
B: Nobody really knows how a dog feels.
C: This translated as“Don't come this way”.
D: More customers are expected when the English version is launched this summer.
E: Now,the Japanese girl thinks she knows.
F: Each one of these emotions is then linked to a phrase like“Let's play”,“Look at me”, or“Spend more time with me”.
答案 D
解析 空格前后句中都出现了she（ she指代第1个句子中提到的Kimiko Fukuda, 而这个名字看来不是本土英国人或本土美国人的名字），空格前后句都是在围绕she( Kimiko Fukuda)进行讲述，因此推测空格处的句子在内容上也很可能与she(Kimiko Fukuda）相关，因此判断E项“现在，这个日本女孩认为她知道了”很可能是答案。而且the Japanese girl在空格的前文中有呼应的内容（Kimiko Fukuda)，而且Kimiko Fukuda也听起来非常像是日本人的名字，因此肯定了E是答案。
空格前面的句子提到“在日本有30万养狗的人购买了它”,“它，，指代前句中的first dog-human translation machine“第一台把狗的叫声翻译成人的语言的机器”。空格前面的句子中提到了翻译机器的购买者（顾客），借助这个信息判断D很可能是答案（D也谈到了顾客，而且在内容上是进行了比较：D提到“购买英语版本的顾客会更多”，因为讲英语的人比日本人更多，所以购买英语版本的顾客更多，这是符合常理的。）
空格前句提到“Bowlingual由两个部分组成”，由此可推测Bowlingual就是前文中提到的“翻译机器的名字”，空格后面的句子提到“翻译在……的设备中进行”，结合空格前后的内容来看，空格处很可能会对翻译机器进行介绍，因此判断A项“一个无线麦克风被系到狗的项圈上……”很可能是答案。而A和空格后面的句子通过gadget的重复出现形成了意义上的街接和连贯。结合空格前后句的内容来看，A中的“无线麦克风”和空格后面句子中的“使用数据库进行翻译的设备”就是空格前句中提到的“翻译机器的两个组成部分”。
空格前句具体提到了六种情感，空格后面也继续提到了情感，因此判断空格处也提到情感的可能性较大，因此判断F可能是答案，而且F中these emotions在空格前句中有呼应的内容（happiness , sadness , frustration , anger , declaration and desire).
空格前后句使用的时态都是一般过去时态，而C恰巧也是一般过去时态，因此判断C很可能是答案。（提示：相邻语句往往基调时态一致。）从句意上看：空格前句提到“当客人来到Fukuda的家门口时，她的狗会大声地‘汪汪’叫”,C中的this就是指“狗在看到来人时汪汪的叫声”，而狗之所以叫就是在说“Don't come this way（不要到这边来）”，因此 C在语意上也与空格前句构成了很好的街接。
