In the suburban district of a city lived an old woman quite alone. Her husband died thirty

In the suburban district of a city lived an old woman quite alone. Her husband died thirty years ago and two years later, her only son went away with lung cancer. So she had no family still living and her only friend was a little white dog who went everywhere with her - with one exception. The dog loved the fireplace in winter, and after the old woman went to bed he would sometimes go and lie in front of the warm coals. Usually though, the dog lay on a rug right next to the bed.
Deeply as the old woman loved her dog, she wouldn't allow the dog on the bed with her. However, if she became frightened or had a nightmare, she would put her hand down to her little white dog and he would lick it to calm her down.
One night she was reading the newspaper just before going to sleep. She trembled and pulled the duvet（羽绒被褥）up around her as she read that a mental patient had wandered out from a nearby hospital. No one knew if the patient was dangerous or not, but he was a suspect in the murders of several women who lived alone.
The woman turned off the lights and tried to sleep, but she was frightened, and turned over continually. Finally, she reached down to where her little white dog slept. Sure enough, a warm, wet tongue began to lick her hand. The woman felt reassured and safe, and left her hand hanging off the side of the bed. As she turned to settle in comfortably she opened her eyes for a moment and looked through the open door into the living room.
There in front of the fireplace, sat her little white dog, gazing at the coals and wagging his tail. And down beside her bed, something was still licking her hand.

(答案→)C 解析： 【小题1】 细节理解题。在第一段的尾部两个句子，说明有时小狗呆在壁炉旁边，故选C。【小题1】细节理解题。文中仅仅提到了老人不让小狗呆在床上，并没有解释原因，故选D。【小题1】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段的第二句，可知老人读到有一个精神病患者跑出了精神病院，这则报道时打了冷颤，故老人是被报上的新闻吓了一跳。【小题1】推理判断题。根据第三段老人对这则精神病人的报道感到恐惧，故这时发现自己的小狗呆在壁炉边时，老人一定联想到看到的报道，故B项符合文意。

这个问题我还想问问老师呢
