【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。NangNo Stiam四年前不小心丢了一条狗。这条忠诚的狗在走丢的地方等了四年，四年期间他得到了一位好心女士的悉心照料，最后在记者的帮助下与主人重聚。作为回报，他留下来陪伴这位女士。

（1）细节理解题。根据第一段“… but then realized that he looked healthy， so some people asked around about him. It turned out that the dog had indeed been spending most of his time around that crossroad, but a woman had been coming around regularly to bring him food and water. ”可知，那条狗看起来健康是因为一位女士定期照料他。故选D项。

（2）词义猜测题。根据画线短语所在句的句意“那个帖子很快就, Leo的照片被分享了成百上千次。”可推断，画线短语意为“迅速传播”，与Spread quickly意思最为接近。故选B 项。

（3）推理判断题。根据第三段“When she learned that he had been waiting for her in the same spot for the last four years，her heart melted(融化).”可推断，NangNoi Sittisarn得知她的狗一直在等待她，她深受感动。故选C项。

（4）推理判断题。这条狗能够等自己的主人四年，说明了他很忠诚;根据最后一段的叙述可知，这条狗找到主人后还要留下来陪伴自己的恩人，说明他知道感恩。由此可推断，我们通过这条狗的故事应该学会忠诚与感恩。故选C项。

【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，推理判断和词义猜测三个题型的考查，是一篇记叙文，要求考生在捕捉细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，概括和归纳，从而选出正确答案。

2．阅读理解

People speak English in different parts of the world. The same words can be used in different ways, depending on where you live. People can also have completely different ways of saying the same thing.

The Oxford English Dictionary (OED) is asking the public to help it add new words. Editors want to find the regional differences in English around the world. They want to expand its record of the language.

Last year, the OED, BBC Radio and the Forward Arts Foundation teamed up to find local words in the United Kingdom. It resulted in more than 100 regional words and phrases being added to the dictionary. One was "cuddy wifter", which means a left-handed person.

Now, the OED is widening its search to English speakers around the world. Eleanor Maier, an editor at OED, said the response has been great. Editors are listing a bunch of suggestions to include in the dictionary.

These include Hawaii's "hammajang", which means "in a disorderly state". Another is the word for a swimming costume, "dookers" or "duckers". It is used in Scotland.
