二. 綜合填空：
1. friendly。根據“be very f 1 to people”來分析，此空應填一個形容詞，表明狗對人的態度。
2. children。
3. strange。狗的天性是護家。文中的watch-dogs意為“看家狗”，專門指有生人來時發出叫喊的狗?！吧恕痹谟⑽闹屑礊?/SPAN>a strange person。
4. size。這個空略微有點難。一是size一詞平時用的較少，二是一般家庭都養小型犬，供狗活動的空間一般不成問題，因此，對狗的體積問題考慮的較少。從后面的句子來看，此處是在談狗的體積的問題－“如果你的家小，就買一只小狗；如果你的家大，就買一只大狗。”
5. yours。這是一個名詞性物主代詞，代替上半句的your home。此句完整的說法應是buy a small dog if your home is small and buy a bigger one if your home is larger.為避免詞的重復使用，常用名詞性物主代詞代替前面的那個名詞。
6. almost?！肮穾缀跏裁炊汲??！边@一點我們從日常生活中也都知道，而且本句話的后面也進行了進一步的解釋說明，“他們喜歡吃肉，米飯和其它的東西。”
7. made。這是make的過去分詞，在這里與for dogs一起做定語，修飾food，整句的意思是“你可以在食品店買到許多為狗做的食物。”
8. leave。有養狗經驗的同學都知道，每天一定要給狗留下供它喝的水。
9. summer。如果了解了狗的這一輩子理功能（靠舌頭來散熱），就不難填出summer一詞。
10. exercise。從下面的句子You should take it for a walk every day. Don't keep your dog inside all day.來看，說明狗也需要運動。exercise當“運動”講時，是一個不可數名詞，不能在詞尾加s。
