问题 完形填空
I walked into the grocery store not particularly interested in buying something. The sorrow of   36  my husband of 37 years was still too painful. And this grocery store held so many sweet   37 . Bob often came with me and almost every time he'd   38  to go off and look for something special. I'd always see him walking down the walkway   39  the three yellow roses in his hands. Bob knew I loved yellow roses. With a heart   40  with pain, I came to the meat shelf, I searched for the   41  small steak and remembered how Bob had loved his steak.
Suddenly a woman came beside me. She was in a soft green dress. I   42  as she picked up a large pack of T-bones,   43  them in her basket, hesitated, and then put them back. She saw me watching her and she smiled. "My husband loves T-bones, but   44 , at these prices, I don't know."
"My husband passed away eight days ago," I told her. "Buy him the steaks. And value every   45  you have together."
She smiled and I saw the feeling in her   46  as she placed the package in her basket and   47  away. I turned and pushed my cart forward too. Several minutes later I saw first the green suit and then   48  the pretty lady coming to me. In her arms she carried something. On her face was the   49  smile I had ever seen.
As she came closer, I saw what she held and   50  welled down. "These are for you, " she said and placed three beautiful yellow roses in my arms. She placed a gentle kiss on my cheek, then smiled again. I wanted to tell her what the roses   51 , but still unable to speak. I watched as she walked away as tears clouded my   52 . I looked down at the beautiful roses and found it almost   53 . How did she know?
Suddenly the   54  seemed so clear. I wasn't alone. "Oh, Bob, you haven't   55  me, have you?" I whispered, with tears in my eyes. He was still with me, and she was his angel.

Go ahead,talk to your dog.

As many a dog owner will prove, our furry friends are listening. Now, for the doubters, there is scientific proof that they understand much of what they hear. A border collie called Rico can fetch at least 200 objects by name, researchers in Germany say. The dog also appears to learn words for new objects as easily as a 3-year-old child would. Its word-learning skill is as good as that of a parrot or chimpanzee.

In one experiment, the researchers took all 200 items that Rico is supposed to know and divided them randomly into 20 sets of 10 objects each. The dog waited with one of his owners in one room, while an experimenter put a set of 10 objects into another room. Then, the owner told the dog to fetch one of the items. The dog had to go to the other room and bring the object back.

In four trials, Rico got 37 out of 40 commands right. Because the dog couldn't see anyone to get visual clues about what to bring back, the scientists concluded that he must understand the meanings of certain words.

In another experiment, the scientists took one toy that Rico had never seen before and put it in a room with seven toys whose names he already knew. The dog's owner then told him to fetch the object, using a word Rico had never heard.

In 7 out of 10 trials, Rico picked the right object, suggesting that he figured out the answer by process of elimination. A month later, he remembered half of the new names, which further impressed the researchers.

Rico is probably smarter than the average dog, the scientists say. For one thing, he's a border collie, a breed known for its mental abilities. In addition, the 9-year-old dog has been trained to retrieve toys by their names since he was 9 months old.

It's hard to know if all dogs understand at least some of the words we say. Even if they do, they can't talk back. Still, it wouldn't hurt to sweet-talk your pup every now and then. You might just get a big, wet kiss in return!

A.pets B.environment    C.culture     D.nutrition

49.It is implied that ____

A.Rico is probably cleverer than the average dog

B.Only a few dogs can talk back to its owner

C.if a chimpanzee is trained ,it can also recognize the names of objects

D.All dogs can understand words

50.How long is it since Rico’s owner began to train him?

A.nine months  B.3years    C.over nine years      D.more than eight years

51.Rico can do all the following except _____

A.understanding the meanings of certain words.

B.picking the right object by process of elimination

C.remembering all of the new names he learned    D.retrieving toys by their names
