To many people, pandas are the loveliest...

To many people, pandas are the loveliest animal in the world. However, it's impossible for everyone to hug and play with the cute bears. That is why panda fans gathered at a cafe (咖啡馆) in Chengdu, Sichuan. They stayed with the dogs that look like the lovely bears.

"A relative showed me photos of dogs that look like pandas the other day. I came specially to have a look on my way home after school, said Wang Shuhan, a middle-school student.

The Cute Pet Games cafe opened in September. Covering 300 square meters and accommodating 80 people at most, it does a hot business because of its six panda-like Chow Chow dogs (松狮犬) .

But there is another different voice about animal abuse (虐待) . While the dogs are naturally short and cute, their fur has been coloured black and white to make them look more like China's national symbol.

One of the managers of the cafe, Lyu Yunning, said that the six dogs came from Japan and were coloured black and white before they arrived in China to attract customers. The cafe chose Chow Chow dogs because they are light and quiet.

But the cafe brought a heated online discussion over the treatment of animals when a local newspaper reported that the owner, surnamed Huang, said it had started offering pet colouring services after the panda dogs became a hit. The cost of the dog colouring is 1,500 yuan as the colouring material is from Japan and very expensive, the newspaper reported. It takes trained worker about a day to change a Chow Chow into a "panda", the owner was quoted as saying.

The story led to angry online words from pet owners stressing the possible bad effects of colouring the animals' fur.

However, the manager Lyu said the cafe had never coloured any animal and charged the newspaper with making up an untrue story.

1.What does the underlined word "it" in the third paragraph refer to (指代)?

A.The city. B.The cafe. C.The enough space. D.The lovely dog.

2.What does the phrase "a heated online discussion" in the sixth paragraph mean?

A.Pet colouring services are too expensive for common pet owners.

B.Some people have an opposite opinion on colouring the animals' fur.

C.The cafe invited more and more local people to join in the discussion.

D.Most people in Chengdu would like to share their opinions with others.

3.What can be inferred (推断) from the report?

A.Panda dogs attract more attention of the middle-school students.

B.Both the manager and the owner of the cafe made up the untrue story.

C.We don't know whether the cafe has coloured any animal or not before. .

D.Most of the pet owners in Chengdu would like to colour their own dogs

 

1.B 2.B 3.C 【解析】 本文讲述了成都的一家咖啡馆将松狮犬染成“熊猫色”,这种对待宠物的方式引发了人们的广泛批评,并且咖啡馆经理否认网上谣传店里给狗染色的这项服务。 1. 词句猜测题。根据Covering 300 square meters and accommodating 80 people at most, it does a hot business because of its six panda-like Chow Chow dogs,可知,占地300平方米,最多容纳80人的咖啡馆,因为有六个像熊猫的松狮犬,所以生意很火,由此可知,it指代前文提到的the café。故选B。 2. 词句猜测题。根据when a local newspaper reported that the owner, surnamed Huang, said it had started offering pet colouring services after the panda dogs became a hit,可知,在松狮犬变得火热后,这家咖啡馆提供宠物染色服务,这个消息引起了激烈的讨论。从这个激烈的讨论可以看出,一些人对于给动物染色这个事情持相反的意见。故选B。 3. 推理判断题。根据One of the managers of the cafe, Lyu Yunning, said that the six dogs came from Japan and were coloured black and white before they arrived in China to attract customers “咖啡馆的一位经理说这六只狗来自日本,在到中国前为了吸引顾客被染成黑白相间的颜色”及However, the manager Lyu said the cafe had never coloured any animal and charged the newspaper with making up an untrue story“然而,吕经理说咖啡馆从未给任何动物染色,并指控报纸编造了一个不真实的故事”,可知,一直都是咖啡馆的经理说他们没有给任何动物染色,实际上我们并不知这家咖啡馆之前是否给动物染过色。故选C。
