2.【2012全国ii】
a)cold weather can be hard on pets, just like it can be hard on people. sometimes owners forget that their cats are just as used to the warm shelter (住所) as they are. some owners will le**e their animals outside for a long period of time, thinking that all animals are used to living outdoors.
this can put their pets in danger of serious illness. there are things you can do to keep your animal warm and safe.
keep your pets inside as much as you can when the weather is bad. if you h**e to take them out, stay outside with them. when you’re cold enough to go inside, they probably are too.
if you must le**e them outside for a long time, make sure they h**
e a warm, solid shelter against the wind, thick bedding, and plenty of non-frozen water.
if left alone outside, dogs and cats can be very smart in their search for warm shelter. they can dig into snow banks or hide somewhere. watch them closely when they are left outdoors, and provide them with shelter of good quality.
keep an eye on your pet’s water. sometimes owners don’t realize that a water bowl has frozen and their pet can’t get anything to drink. animals that don’t h**e clean and unfrozen water may drink dirty water outside, which may contain something unhealthy for them.
解析】根据第二段中的“if you h**e to take them out, stay outside with them. when you’re cold enough to go inside, they probably are too.”可知：
当你感到冷的时候就会进房间，它们也是如此。所以a正确。

b)you may think that sailing is a difficult sport, but it is really not hard to learn it. you do not need to be strong. but you need to be quick.
and you need to understand a few basic rules about the wind.
first, you must ask yourself, “where is the wind coming from? is it coming from ahead or behind or from the side?” you must think about this all the time on the boat.
the wind direction tells you what to do with the sail.
let’s start with the wind blowing from the behind. this means the wind and the boat are going in the same direction. then you must always keep the sail outside the boat.
it should be at a 90° angle (角度) to the boat. then it will catch the wind best.
if the wind is blowing from the side, it is blowing across the boat. in this case, you must keep the sail half way outside the boat. it should be at a 45° angle to the boat.
it needs to be out far enough to catch the wind, but it shouldn’t flap (摆动). it shouldn’t look like on a flagpole. if it is flapping, it is probably out too far, and the boat will slow down.
sailing into the wind is not possible. if you try, the sail will flap and the boat will stop. you may want to go in that direction.
it is possible, but you can’t go in a straig
ht line. you must go first in one direction and then in another. this is called tacking.
when you are tacking, you must always keep the sail inside the boat.
