I just flew from Berlin, Germany, to Atlanta,Gcorgia, and it took me 24 hours due lo the weather-related delay during my stopover in New York. Like many other passengers, I was so worm out, annoyed, and helpless that I could barely hold it together.
The pilot, called Thiemy Beyeler, was different. He left the flight deck and walked to the dissatisfied passengers to apologize and comfort them.The pilot's appropriate behavior set the tone and ensured no one got angry. It reminded me of the beauty of “elegance(优雅)under pressure”. Thierry Beyeler was a pilot with Swiss International Air Lines, for which he flew various aircraft. During the delay, I had the chance to speak to Beyelor and learn about his experience as a pilot.
He said, “Flying is a bit like eating chocolate. I love every flight. However, when you have 16 flights in four days, then that's too much chocolate for me..." As for crisis(危机)situations, he did have a few. “Once, I had an engine failure, but that's rare, and we handled it. Another time, we had smoke in the cabin,and we went to land quickly. In end, it was just the air conditioning having some problems…."He believes, "As Murphty's law puts it, 'What can be wrong will go wrong'. So think about it and try to prepare mentally."
Beyeler continued, "Compared with cars, a flight is a high-risk environment; it's not like riding a bike. Even if there was a minor error, it could have fatal consequences. Every pilot is quite professional in the field. But it is the strong mindset(观念模式)in the chaos(混乱)that plays the key role. Humans stop in technical systems to solve items countless times a day, and it would be dangerous if the pilot became nervous and forgot that."
I’ve been touched by Beycler's words. I understand that human factors, including confidence, courage, sensibility, and emotional intelligence are becoming more and more important in today's world.
4. How did Beyeler sound facing the long delay according to the text
A. Discouraged and tired. B. Calm and positive.
C. Helpless and anxious. D. Annoyed and cold-hearted.
5. What does Beycler want to show by mentioning"eating chocolate"
A. Flying brings him much fun.
B. Flying involves various crisis situations.
C. Too many flight tasks can be unacceptable for him.
D. Too many crisis situations have Happened to him.
6. What does Beyeler consider important for pilots during crises
A. Gaining a good sense of time. B. Having great strength of mind.
C. Knowing all the technical systems well. D. Having a good grasp of professional knowledge.
7. What did the author think of his communication with Beyeler
A. Boring. B. Frightening. C. Rewarding D. Confusing
【答案】4. B 5. C 6. B 7. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了作者通过和飞行员Thierry Beyeler交流了解到飞行员这一职业的特点以及高要求，作者也获益匪浅。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“The pilot, called Thierry Beyeler, was different. He left the flight deck and walked to the dissatisfied passengers to apologize and comfort them. The pilot’s appropriate behavior set the tone and ensured no one got angry.(飞行员Thierry Beyeler则不同。他离开驾驶舱，走向不满的乘客，向他们道歉并安慰他们。飞行员的得体行为奠定了基调，确保没有人生气)”可知，面对长时间的延误Beyeler既冷静又乐观。故选B。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“He said, ‘Flying is a bit like eating chocolate. I love every flight. However, when you have16 flights in four days, then that’s too much chocolate for me...’(他说：‘飞行有点像吃巧克力。我喜欢每一次飞行。然而，当你在4天内要飞16次航班时，那对我来说巧克力太多了……’)”可推知，Beyeler提到“吃巧克力”是想说明太多的飞行任务对他来说是无法接受的。故选C。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“But it is the strong mindset(观念模式)in the chaos(混乱)that plays the key role. (但在混乱中发挥关键作用的是坚强的心态。)”可知，Beyeler认为，在危机中，对飞行员来说，有强大的意志力是至关重要的。故选B。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“I’ve been touched by Beycler's words. I understand that human factors, including confidence, courage, sensibility, and emotional intelligence are becoming more and more important in today's world. (我被Beyeler的话感动了。我明白，人的因素，包括自信、勇气、责任和情商，在当今世界变得越来越重要)”可推知，作者认为与Beyeler的交流是有益的。故选C。
C
Mandy and Joe have been married for five years and they both love travelling to new countries. But while this hobby brings them together, it is also a source of contention. “I do all the planning and book.” says Mandy. Don’t get me wrong. I enjoy it, but if Joe paid a bit more attention, he wouldn’t have turned up for a flight to Grenada packed for a winter city break. ‘Jumpers and boots !’I cried.’ You’re supposed to have packed shorts and T-s—it’s 30℃ in the Caribbean!!Then I realized he thought we were going to Granada, in Spain.”
How Joe and Mandy each approach their travel plans is just one example of the many ways in which men and women differ. Yet, is what goes on inside our minds and bodies really so different Furthermore, are we born that way
On this issue, scientists are divided. The majority of scientists believed that patterns of behavior thought to be: male or female are learnt firstly from our parents, then from our peers(同伴)and, ultimately, from the societies in which we live. As Simone de Beauvoir famously said, “One is not born, but rather becomes, a woman.”
On the other side of the fence sat those who believed that male and female brains are actually wired (与生俱来的) differently. In one study in which 34 monkeys were required to interact with different types of toys, the males showed s strong preference for toys with wheels rather than soft toys, whereas the females were noticeably drawn to soft toys. These preferences were clearly not the result of parental influence.
Whatever the truth behind the differences between men and women, we can safely conclude that although the social impact on how we think and behave is undoubted, there exists a biological contribution. The question that now needs answering is to what degree biology affects the choices we make and the way other people treat us.
8. What does the underlined word “contention” in Paragraph 1 probably mean
A. Satisfaction. B. Disagreement C. Influence. D. Information
9. What topic does the text focus on
A. Whether men and women are different B. Why minds and bodies are so different.
C. How different males and females are. D. What causes the sex difference.
10. What does the study about monkeys prove
A Monkeys have their own preferences. B. Parents indeed have strong impacts.
C. Men and women are born different. D. Females and males behave differently.
11. Which statement about sex differences does the author probably agree with
A. Biology leads to the differences. B. Biology mostly affects our choices.
C. Social influence can be ignored. D. Peers have more impact than parents.
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章以Mandy和Joe的故事为切入点，主要介绍男人和女人在行为模式上不同的原因。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词前半句“But while this hobby brings them together,(但是，虽然这个爱好让他们走到了一起，)”可知，虽然共同的爱好让他们走到一起，但这也是争论的来源，因此划线词contention的意思是“争论”，即Disagreement。故选B。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段的“How Joe and Mandy each approach their travel plans is just one example of the many ways in which men and women differ. Yet, is what goes on inside our minds and bodies really so different Furthermore, are we born that way (乔和曼迪如何处理他们的旅行计划只是男人和女人在许多方面不同的一个例子。然而，我们的大脑和身体内部发生的事情真的如此不同吗？此外，我们是天生如此吗？)”可知，本文主要论述的是男人和女人在行为模式上不同的原因，即“What causes the sex difference(性别差异的原因。)”。故选D。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“On the other side of the fence sat those who believed that male and female brains are actually wired (与生俱来的) differently.(另一方面，那些反对此观点的人认为男性和女性的大脑实际上是不同的。)”和“These preferences were clearly not the result of parental influence. (这些偏好显然不是父母影响的结果。)”可知，关于猴子的研究证明了男人和女人是天生不同的。故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Whatever the truth behind the differences between men and women, we can safely conclude that although the social impact on how we think and behave is undoubted, there exists a biological contribution. The question that now needs answering is to what degree biology affects the choices we make and the way other people treat us. (无论男女差异背后的真相是什么，我们都可以有把握地得出这样的结论:尽管社会对我们的思维和行为方式的影响是毋庸置疑的，但也存在着生理上的影响。现在需要回答的问题是，生物学在多大程度上影响了我们做出的选择以及他人对待我们的方式。)”可知，作者可能同意的关于性别差异的观点是生物学造成了这种差异。故选A。
D
Scientists in Switzerland have used lasers (激光) to change the path of a lightning strike. The experiment was carried out on Santis mountain in Switzerland, near a radio and TV tower hit by lightning about 100 times a year. Using a special laser, the researchers were able to guide the lightning strike.
Scientists have been trying to find a way to protect buildings from lightning for a long time. At present, the best way to protect buildings from lightning is by putting metal rods (杆) on the buildings. These rods are connected to the ground. The lightning is attracted to the rods, which safely guide the electricity into the ground. But lightning rods can only protect a small area. If a building is very large, it needs a lot of lightning rods. But some buildings-such as airports-are so large that it’s difficult to protect the whole building using lightning rods.
Another idea is to use lasers to guide lightning. The idea of using lasers to guide lightning isn’1new. Scientists have been working on the idea for over 20 years. They’ve successfully guided lightning with lasers inside a laboratory. But until 2021, scientists guided lightning with lasers outside. Using a powerful laser that can fire about 1, 000 times a second, scientists in Switzerland were able to guide lightning bolts for 164 feet (50 meters).
The heat from the laser creates a path of air that is less thick than the air around it. The path also has a special charge. The lightning can follow this path almost as if it were a lightning rod. In the past, experiments with lasers that fired more slowly didn’t work.
Managing to guide the lightning in an outdoor environment is a very big step. But despite the progress, the laser still isn’t a good choice when it comes to protecting large buildings.
12. To stop a building from being stricken by lightning, it is best to .
A. equip it with metal rods B. position it away from airports
C. build it on low-lying open ground D. keep it away from any kind of metal
13. What enables the laser to guide the lightning
A. Its color. B. Its brightness. C. Its speed. D. Its concentration.
14. What will the paragraph following the text probably talk about
A. How the laser should be improved to protect large buildings.
B. When the laser will be widely used to protect large buildings.
C. Why it is unnecessary to use the laser to protect large buildings.
D What prevents the laser from being used to protect large buildings.
15. What is the best title for the text
A. Scientists Find a New Use of the Laser
B. Scientists Guide Lightning with the Laser
C. A New Idea Has Been Tested to Guide Lightning
D. A New Way to Protect Buildings Has Been Found
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了瑞士科学家利用激光改变了雷击的路径。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Scientists have been trying to find a way to protect buildings from lightning for a long time. At present, the best way to protect buildings from lightning is by putting metal rods (杆) on the buildings. (长期以来，科学家们一直在努力寻找一种保护建筑物免受雷击的方法。目前，保护建筑物免受雷击的最好方法是在建筑物上放置金属棒。)”可知，目前保护建筑物免受雷击的最好方法是在建筑物上放置金属棒。故选A。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“But until 2021, scientists guided lightning with lasers outside. Using a powerful laser that can fire about 1, 000 times a second, scientists in Switzerland were able to guide lightning bolts for 164 feet (50 meters). (但直到2021年，科学家们都在室外用激光引导闪电。瑞士科学家们利用一种每秒发射约1000次的强大激光，能够引导164英尺(50米)的闪电。)”可知，激光之所以能够用来引导闪电是因为激光的速度。故选C。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“But despite the progress, the laser still isn’t a good choice when it comes to protecting large buildings.(但是，尽管取得了进展，激光在保护大型建筑物方面仍然不是一个好的选择。)”可推断，文章接下来会解释为什么激光不被用于保护大型建筑。故选D。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Scientists in Switzerland have used lasers (激光) to change the path of a lightning strike. The experiment was carried out on Santis mountain in Switzerland, near a radio and TV tower hit by lightning about 100 times a year. Using a special laser, the researchers were able to guide the lightning strike. (瑞士科学家利用激光改变了雷击的路径。这项实验是在瑞士的桑蒂斯山上进行的，那里靠近一座每年被闪电击中约100次的广播电视塔。使用一种特殊的激光，研究人员能够引导雷击。)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要介绍了瑞士科学家利用激光引导雷击。所以“Scientists Guide Lightning with the Laser (科学家用激光引导闪电)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选B。
第二节七选五(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项
Reading a dog’s body language requires experience and expert guidance. Zazie Todd, a dog trainer and founder of the blog Companion Animal Psychology, thinks about how to understand dogs’ behaviour.
____16____
They’re expecting punishment but don’t necessarily know their behavior is wrong. Alexandra Horowitz, a professor at Barnard College who researches dogs’ cognition(认知), points out the “guilty” look is linked to being scolded by the owner.
If your dog licks their mouth
They’re stressed. Recently, two European studies have highlighted the meaning of this licking. One found that it was a dog’s response to seeing an angry or aggressive human face on a computer screen.____17____ If you spot this sign, try reducing your dog’s stress levels. It could be as simple as giving them more physical space.
If there are fireworks and your dog is shaking
____18____This is a common reaction, but a surprising number of people don’t realize that shaking and trembling are signs of fear. Whereas only a quarter of owners say their dog is afraid of loud noises, half report these behavioral signs.
If you are at the vet and your dog’s tail is down
They’re anxious. Obvious signs of an unhappy dog include hiding or trying to leave the exam room, but commonly missed triggers range from a tucked tail and lowered ears to trembling.____19____ Many vets now use food to make the experience more fun.
If your dog leans into you during a petting time
They like it! If you’re unsure that a dog is enjoying being petted, stop, then watch their reaction. If they choose to wander off, the petting time is over. Other signs of discomfort include sniffing the floor, looking away and breathing heavily. However, if they lean on you or paw at you to get more hugs, continue!____20____
A. This behavior means they like it.
B. They are frightened by the noises.
C. If your dog gets stressed at appointments, ask what can be done.
D. If your dog looks guilty when you walk in the door and see a mess.
E. Start to pet them and remain nearby so that your dog would be comforted.
F. The other determined that dogs lick their mouths in response to a mild threat.
G Preferred parts on their bodies are to either side of the chest and under the chin.
【答案】16. D 17. F 18. B 19. C 20. G
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要就狗的一些常见肢体语言进行解释说明。
【16题详解】
根据本段内容“They’re expecting punishment but don’t necessarily know their behavior is wrong. Alexandra Horowitz, a professor at Barnard College who researches dogs’ cognition(认知), points out the “guilty” look is linked to being scolded by the owner.(他们知道会有惩罚，但不一定知道自己的行为是错误的。巴纳德学院研究狗的认知的教授Alexandra Horowitz指出，“内疚”的表情与被主人责骂有关)”可知，本段主要是关于狗看起来内疚的情况，D选项中guilty对应后文guilty。故D选项“当你走进门看到乱七八糟的东西时，如果你的狗看起来很内疚”符合语境，故选D。
【17题详解】
根据标题“If your dog licks their mouth(如果你的狗舔他们的嘴)”以及前文“One found that it was a dog’s response to seeing an angry or aggressive human face on a computer screen.(其中一项研究发现，这是狗在电脑屏幕上看到愤怒或咄咄逼人的人脸时的反应)”可知，本段主要是关于狗舔嘴的解释，F选项lick their mouths对应标题lick their mouths。故F选项“另一项研究认为，狗舔嘴是对轻微威胁的反应”符合语境，故选F。
【18题详解】
根据后文“This is a common reaction, but a surprising number of people don’t realize that shaking and trembling are signs of fear. Whereas only a quarter of owners say their dog is afraid of loud noises, half report these behavioral signs.(这是一种常见的反应，但令人惊讶的是，很多人没有意识到震动和颤抖是恐惧的迹象。虽然只有四分之一的主人说他们的狗害怕大的噪音，但有一半的人报告了这些行为迹象)”可知，本段主要说明了狗害怕大的噪音，B选项noises对应后文loud noises。故B选项“它们害怕噪音”符合语境，故选B。
【19题详解】
根据上文“They’re anxious. Obvious signs of an unhappy dog include hiding or trying to leave the exam room, but commonly missed triggers range from a tucked tail and lowered ears to trembling.(他们焦虑。狗不开心的明显迹象包括躲起来或试图离开检查室，但通常错过的触发因素包括夹起尾巴、垂下耳朵、颤抖)”以及后文“Many vets now use food to make the experience more fun.(许多兽医现在用食物来增加体验的乐趣)”可知，后文提到了减轻狗压力的办法，可知本句主要是针对感到压力应该怎么办进行提问。故C选项“如果你的狗在检查时感到压力，问问能做些什么”符合语境，故选C。
【20题详解】
根据上文“However, if they lean on you or paw at you to get more hugs, continue!(然而，如果它们靠在你身上或用爪子抓你来得到更多的拥抱，继续！)”可知，上文提到了继续抚摸自己的宠物，本句为本段最后一句，G选项“它们喜欢的（被抚摸的）身体部位是胸部两侧和下巴下面”符合语境，就抚摸的部位进行进一步说明。故选G。

I just flew from Berlin, Germany, to Atlanta,Gcorgia, and it took me 24 hours due lo the weather-related delay during my stopover in New York. Like many other passengers, I was so worm out, annoyed, and helpless that I could barely hold it together.
The pilot, called Thiemy Beyeler, was different. He left the flight deck and walked to the dissatisfied passengers to apologize and comfort them.The pilot's appropriate behavior set the tone and ensured no one got angry. It reminded me of the beauty of “elegance(优雅)under pressure”. Thierry Beyeler was a pilot with Swiss International Air Lines, for which he flew various aircraft. During the delay, I had the chance to speak to Beyelor and learn about his experience as a pilot.
He said, “Flying is a bit like eating chocolate. I love every flight. However, when you have 16 flights in four days, then that's too much chocolate for me..." As for crisis(危机)situations, he did have a few. “Once, I had an engine failure, but that's rare, and we handled it. Another time, we had smoke in the cabin,and we went to land quickly. In end, it was just the air conditioning having some problems…."He believes, "As Murphty's law puts it, 'What can be wrong will go wrong'. So think about it and try to prepare mentally."
Beyeler continued, "Compared with cars, a flight is a high-risk environment; it's not like riding a bike. Even if there was a minor error, it could have fatal consequences. Every pilot is quite professional in the field. But it is the strong mindset(观念模式)in the chaos(混乱)that plays the key role. Humans stop in technical systems to solve items countless times a day, and it would be dangerous if the pilot became nervous and forgot that."
I’ve been touched by Beycler's words. I understand that human factors, including confidence, courage, sensibility, and emotional intelligence are becoming more and more important in today's world.
4. How did Beyeler sound facing the long delay according to the text
A. Discouraged and tired. B. Calm and positive.
C. Helpless and anxious. D. Annoyed and cold-hearted.
5. What does Beycler want to show by mentioning"eating chocolate"
A. Flying brings him much fun.
B. Flying involves various crisis situations.
C. Too many flight tasks can be unacceptable for him.
D. Too many crisis situations have Happened to him.
6. What does Beyeler consider important for pilots during crises
A. Gaining a good sense of time. B. Having great strength of mind.
C. Knowing all the technical systems well. D. Having a good grasp of professional knowledge.
7. What did the author think of his communication with Beyeler
A. Boring. B. Frightening. C. Rewarding D. Confusing
C
Mandy and Joe have been married for five years and they both love travelling to new countries. But while this hobby brings them together, it is also a source of contention. “I do all the planning and book.” says Mandy. Don’t get me wrong. I enjoy it, but if Joe paid a bit more attention, he wouldn’t have turned up for a flight to Grenada packed for a winter city break. ‘Jumpers and boots !’I cried.’ You’re supposed to have packed shorts and T-s—it’s 30℃ in the Caribbean!!Then I realized he thought we were going to Granada, in Spain.”
How Joe and Mandy each approach their travel plans is just one example of the many ways in which men and women differ. Yet, is what goes on inside our minds and bodies really so different Furthermore, are we born that way
On this issue, scientists are divided. The majority of scientists believed that patterns of behavior thought to be: male or female are learnt firstly from our parents, then from our peers(同伴)and, ultimately, from the societies in which we live. As Simone de Beauvoir famously said, “One is not born, but rather becomes, a woman.”
On the other side of the fence sat those who believed that male and female brains are actually wired (与生俱来的) differently. In one study in which 34 monkeys were required to interact with different types of toys, the males showed s strong preference for toys with wheels rather than soft toys, whereas the females were noticeably drawn to soft toys. These preferences were clearly not the result of parental influence.
Whatever the truth behind the differences between men and women, we can safely conclude that although the social impact on how we think and behave is undoubted, there exists a biological contribution. The question that now needs answering is to what degree biology affects the choices we make and the way other people treat us.
8. What does the underlined word “contention” in Paragraph 1 probably mean
A. Satisfaction. B. Disagreement C. Influence. D. Information
9. What topic does the text focus on
A. Whether men and women are different B. Why minds and bodies are so different.
C. How different males and females are. D. What causes the sex difference.
10. What does the study about monkeys prove
A. Monkeys have their own preferences. B. Parents indeed have strong impacts.
C. Men and women are born different. D. Females and males behave differently.
11. Which statement about sex differences does the author probably agree with
A. Biology leads to the differences. B. Biology mostly affects our choices.
C. Social influence can be ignored. D. Peers have more impact than parents.
D
Scientists in Switzerland have used lasers (激光) to change the path of a lightning strike. The experiment was carried out on Santis mountain in Switzerland, near a radio and TV tower hit by lightning about 100 times a year. Using a special laser, the researchers were able to guide the lightning strike.
Scientists have been trying to find a way to protect buildings from lightning for a long time. At present, the best way to protect buildings from lightning is by putting metal rods (杆) on the buildings. These rods are connected to the ground. The lightning is attracted to the rods, which safely guide the electricity into the ground. But lightning rods can only protect a small area. If a building is very large, it needs a lot of lightning rods. But some buildings-such as airports-are so large that it’s difficult to protect the whole building using lightning rods.
Another idea is to use lasers to guide lightning. The idea of using lasers to guide lightning isn’1new. Scientists have been working on the idea for over 20 years. They’ve successfully guided lightning with lasers inside a laboratory. But until 2021, scientists guided lightning with lasers outside. Using a powerful laser that can fire about 1, 000 times a second, scientists in Switzerland were able to guide lightning bolts for 164 feet (50 meters).
The heat from the laser creates a path of air that is less thick than the air around it. The path also has a special charge. The lightning can follow this path almost as if it were a lightning rod. In the past, experiments with lasers that fired more slowly didn’t work.
Managing to guide the lightning in an outdoor environment is a very big step. But despite the progress, the laser still isn’t a good choice when it comes to protecting large buildings.
12. To stop a building from being stricken by lightning, it is best to .
A. equip it with metal rods B. position it away from airports
C. build it on low-lying open ground D. keep it away from any kind of metal
13. What enables the laser to guide the lightning
A. Its color. B. Its brightness. C. Its speed. D. Its concentration.
14. What will the paragraph following the text probably talk about
A. How the laser should be improved to protect large buildings.
B. When the laser will be widely used to protect large buildings.
C. Why it is unnecessary to use the laser to protect large buildings.
D. What prevents the laser from being used to protect large buildings.
15. What is the best title for the text
A. Scientists Find a New Use of the Laser
B. Scientists Guide Lightning with the Laser
C. A New Idea Has Been Tested to Guide Lightning
D. A New Way to Protect Buildings Has Been Found

Reading a dog’s body language requires experience and expert guidance. Zazie Todd, a dog trainer and founder of the blog Companion Animal Psychology, thinks about how to understand dogs’ behaviour.
____16____
They’re expecting punishment but don’t necessarily know their behavior is wrong. Alexandra Horowitz, a professor at Barnard College who researches dogs’ cognition(认知), points out the “guilty” look is linked to being scolded by the owner.
If your dog licks their mouth
They’re stressed. Recently, two European studies have highlighted the meaning of this licking. One found that it was a dog’s response to seeing an angry or aggressive human face on a computer screen.____17____ If you spot this sign, try reducing your dog’s stress levels. It could be as simple as giving them more physical space.
If there are fireworks and your dog is shaking
____18____This is a common reaction but a surprising number of people don’t realize that shaking and trembling are signs of fear. Whereas only a quarter of owners say their dog is afraid of loud noises, half report these behavioral signs.
If you are at the vet and your dog’s tail is down
They’re anxious. Obvious signs of an unhappy dog include hiding or trying to leave the exam room, but commonly missed triggers range from a tucked tail and lowered ears to trembling.____19____ Many vets now use food to make the experience more fun.
If your dog leans into you during a petting time
They like it! If you’re unsure that a dog is enjoying being petted, stop, then watch their reaction. If they choose to wander off, the petting time is over. Other signs of discomfort include sniffing the floor, looking away and breathing heavily. However, if they lean on you or paw at you to get more hugs, continue!____20____
A. This behavior means they like it.
B. They are frightened by the noises.
C. If your dog gets stressed at appointments, ask what can be done.
D. If your dog looks guilty when you walk in the door and see a mess.
E. Start to pet them and remain nearby so that your dog would be comforted.
F. The other determined that dogs lick their mouths in response to a mild threat.
G. Preferred parts on their bodies are to either side of the chest and under the chin.
