【回答】

篇章导读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了一位男士帮助素不相识的人找回走失的*的故事，体现了*的人际关系。

1.C　根据前文可知，回家旅途中，Ehlers碰到一只小*。再根据后文中Ehlers和小*的故事可知，他在回家的路上一直想着(think)那条*。

2.B　根据后面的frightened可知，此处表示那条*正在路边发抖(tremble)。

3.A　结合后面的“to coax (哄) the dog to him but, frightened, it had__4__”可知，本来Ehlers试图(try)把那条*哄到身边来，希望帮助它。但是却没有成功，*因为受到惊吓跑掉了。

4.D　虽然Ehlers想把*哄到身边来，帮助它，但是*由于害怕，跑掉了(run off)，此处也与下文的lost呼应。

5.C　根据上文的“but, frightened, it had run off”可知，那条*跑掉了，因此Ehlers被那条走失的(lost)*弄得心烦意乱。

6.C　根据本段第一句可知，Ehlers回家了，但是他被那条走失的*弄得心烦意乱，所以，四天后， 他叫上他的朋友Greg，开车回去(back)寻找那条*。

7.D　结合前面的“After a long and careful”和后面的“Greg saw, across a field, the dog moving__8__ away”可知，经过长时间的仔细搜索(search)，Greg看见了那条*。

8.A　根据第一段最后一句中的“frightened”和下文的“Nervousness and fear”可知，那条*受到惊吓，感到紧张不安和恐惧，因此当Greg看见它的时候，它正小心谨慎地(cautiously)移动。

9.B　根据空格前面的“Nervousness and fear were replaced”以及后面的“It just started licking (*) Ehlers' face.”可知，它的不安和恐惧被快乐(joy)取代。

10.B　结合后面的“as lost in the local paper”及“The ad”可知，一位当地的农场主告诉他们这条*好像是在当地报纸上被登广告的(advertise)走失的*。

11.B　根据后面的“number for a town in southern Michigan”和“the number of Jeff and Lisa”以及生活常识可知，寻*启事上应该有电话(phone)号码。

12.A　根据后面的“the number of Jeff and Lisa to tell them he had __13__ their dog”可知，Ehlers打电话 (call)告诉Jeff和Lisa，即*的主人，他发现了他们的*。

13.C　根据前面的“Ehlers __12__ the number of Jeff and Lisa to tell them”并结合生活常识可知，Ehlers当然是打电话告诉*的主人，他发现(find)了他们的*。

14.A　根据后面的“in Iowa before Thanksgiving with his dog, Rosie, but the gun shots had scared the dog off”可知，Jeff带着他的*Rosie在Iowa打猎(hunt)，但是*声把*吓跑了。

15.D　结合上文Ehlers发现了Rosie和本句“Jeff searched__15__ for Rosie in the next four days.”可知，Jeff找了四天，也没有找到他的*，即徒劳无功(in vain)。

16.A　分析本句中的“says Lisa of Ehlers' rescue”可知，这句是*的女主人Lisa赞美Ehlers的话。她认为有人能够关心(care)一条*，真是一件好事。

17.B　结合上文Ehlers邀请朋友Greg帮助寻找那条*，并且根据本段第一句可知，他还回到Minnesota，又开车100英里到了Minneapolis，在那里让Rosie登上了飞往Michigan的航班，这都说明他为那条*大费周折(trouble)。

18.C　上文提及Ehlers邀请朋友Greg一同寻找那条*，他还回到Minnesota，又驱车100英里到了Minneapolis，在那里让Rosie登上了飞往Michigan的航班，这都说明Ehlers为了Rosie做出了很多努力(effort)。

19.D　Ehlers认为无论是谁丢失了*，*主人对丢失的*的亲密(close)程度都很可能像他对待自己的*一样。

20.D　分析本句可知，Ehlers认为，如果他的*走丢了，他希望有人愿意(willing)不怕麻烦地去帮助寻找他的*。
