A Tribute to the Dog
The best friend a man has in this world may turn against him and become his enemy. His son or daughter whom he has reared with loving care may prove ungrateful. Those who are nearest and dearest to us, those whom we trust with our happiness and our good name, may become traitors to their faith.
The money that a man has he may lose. It flies away from him, perhaps when he needs it most. A man's reputation may be sacrificed in a moment of ill-considered action. The people who are prone to fall on their knees to do us honor when success is with us may be the first to throw the stone of malice when failure settles its cloud upon our heads. The one absolute, unselfish friend a man may have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him, the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous, is his dog.
A man's dog stands by him in prosperity and in poverty, in health and in sickness. He will sleep on the cold ground when the wintry winds blow and the snow drives fiercely, if only he can be near his master's side.
1.1.5 A dog will be true to his owner whether he is rich or poor, healthy or ill.
- True
- False
- Not Given
题目解答
答案
题目考察对文章细节的理解。根据原文第二段:“A man's dog stands by him in prosperity and in poverty, in health and in sickness.” 这句话明确表示,狗会在主人富有时和贫困时、健康时和生病时都忠于主人。这与题目陈述“A dog will be true to his owner whether he is rich or poor, healthy or ill”完全一致。
因此,正确答案是:
True
\boxed{True}
解析
本题考查对文章细节内容的理解。解题的关键在于在文章中找到与题目描述相关的语句,然后对比两者是否一致。
- 首先,明确题目描述为“A dog will be true to his owner whether he is rich or poor, healthy or ill”,即狗无论主人是富有还是贫穷、健康还是生病都会对主人忠诚。
- 接着,在文章第二段中找到关键语句“A man's dog stands by him in prosperity and in poverty, in health and in sickness”。这里“in prosperity”表示富有时,对应题目中的“rich”;“in poverty”表示贫困时,对应题目中的“poor”;“in health”表示健康时,对应题目中的“healthy”;“in sickness”表示生病时,对应题目中的“ill”;“stands by him”意思是支持、陪伴他,也就是对主人忠诚,与题目中“be true to his owner”意思相符。
- 最后,通过对比可知,文章内容与题目陈述完全一致。
