51、Thesentence"Similarresultswerefound...H(Lastsentence,Para.1)means.

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：根據(jù)第1段的大意“狗是病人的好朋友以及訪客的益處”來看，可判斷

工作得更加有效”，意思就是說心肺功能變得強(qiáng)大，與第一段的含義相同，因此選

Co

非常強(qiáng)烈的干擾項(xiàng)，在于有的學(xué)生不明白scientificresearch的含義，以為是參與研

究，會(huì)誤認(rèn)為有狗參與研究。實(shí)際上，C的含義是“拿狗做實(shí)驗(yàn)品”，這當(dāng)然是寵物

義的是A選項(xiàng)。
