D. Great Honors for Cat and Dog

【答案】1. C 2. C 3. B

【解析】本文为记叙文。文章介绍了一只狗和一只猫如何救了主人一家的，而这只猫和狗也因英勇救主而受到了嘉奖。

1. 细节理解题。根据第二段中的When the Keesling family of Indiana was about to be killed by carbon monoxide, their cat clawed at the wife Cathy's hair until she woke up and called for help.可知，小猫Winnie在Keesling一家将被一氧化碳毒死时，小猫抓着凯西的头发，直到她醒来并呼救，才救了一家的命。故选C。

2. 猜测词义题。从破折号后面的句子：Toby as a 4-week-old thrown into a garbage bin to die, and Winnie as a week-old orphan hiding under a barn, so helpless that Cathy's husband, Eric, had to feed her milk with an eyedropper.（托比4周大时被扔进垃圾桶，温妮在一周大作为孤儿被它们的主人救了，它如此虚弱以至于凯西的丈夫埃里克不得不用滴眼器喂它牛奶。）可知，两只动物是在很小的时候（小奶猫和小奶狗）被主人救了，分析选项（A. middle age中年；B. youth青年；C. babyhood婴幼儿期 ；D.agedness老年，高龄），可知C项正确。

3. 主旨大意题。第一段是本文的主题段。主要介绍了一只狗和一只猫救了主人而受嘉奖，接着对事件进行了具体的叙述。因此本文最好的题目就是一只狗和猫因救主人而受嘉奖。故选B项。
