C
Are you planning to take your pet on a long trip? On 8th April, China Railway Express said that pet owners can now bring their cats or dogs on the same train.
To use this service(服务), pet owners must book tickets at least two days before their trip through the online app. The pet must be a healthy cat or dog. And it must weigh less than 15 kilograms. What's more, it must be no taller than 40 centimetres at the shoulder. An animal quarantine certificate(动物检疫证书) is also needed.
During the journey, pets are kept in special containers in a separate part of the train, and a railway worker will give water to them. This service is offered on 10 train routes.
The company said that this service meets the increasing need for pet-friendly travel. The 2025 China Pet Industry White Paper shows that about 18.7 per cent of pet owners spent money on pet travel in 2024, about 4.9 per cent increase from 2023.
Many pet owners welcome the service. Wang Shanshan, 27, is one of them. Three years ago, when moving from Wuhan to Beijing, Wang travelled by car with her cat because pets were not allowed on planes and trains. "If such a pet-friendly train service were offered at that time," she said, "it would have been much faster."
But there are still some worries. Qin Peixuan, 24, worries about air quality in the closed cabinet(封闭的柜子). She also said that keeping different animals together might not be a good idea. For example, a dog's barking may make cats feel afraid.
While the service still needs to be improved, it shows a change toward more user-friendly railways. In the future, we may see more services like this to help meet the increasing need in the market. Railways will become a bigger part of daily life, not just a way to travel.
37. How does the writer start the article to lead in her topic?
A. By asking a question. B. By giving an example.
C. By listing numbers. D. By introducing a study.
38. To use the pet-friendly train service, how many rules should we follow?

39. Why does the writer give Wang Shanshan's example?
A. To show that this pet-friendly train service comes too late.
B. To show that people don't like this pet-friendly train service.
C. To show that pet lovers quite like this pet-friendly train service.
D. To show that people also have some worries about this service.
40. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?

解析
【分析】
这是一篇说明文类阅读理解题,4道小题分别对应写作手法判断、细节计数、例证作用分析、段落推理四类典型阅读题型。解题时首先要根据题干关键词快速定位到原文对应区间:第37题直接看文章开篇第一句的形式就能判断引入方式;第38题回到介绍服务规则的第二段,逐句标记所有使用要求,统计数量即可;第39题定位到人物事例所在段落,结合段落的核心主旨判断举例的目的;第40题针对最后两段逐一比对选项和原文表述,排除无中生有、不符合原文的干扰项,选出正确答案。
【解析】
37. 定位文章开篇第一句“Are you planning to take your pet on a long trip?”,作者以提出问题的方式引出中铁推出可携带宠物乘车的新服务的话题,符合选项A的描述,B举例子、C列数字、D介绍研究均不符合开篇的引入形式。
38. 定位文章第二段,逐一梳理使用该宠物友好服务的全部要求:①宠物主人必须至少提前2天通过线上APP订票;②宠物必须是健康的猫或狗;③宠物体重低于15千克;④宠物肩高不超过40厘米;⑤需要提供动物检疫证书,总共5条规则,对应选项D。
39. 定位第五段,该段首句点明核心观点“Many pet owners welcome the service”,随后举王珊珊的例子,她此前跨城搬家只能自驾带猫,感慨如果当时有这项服务出行效率会高很多,是为了佐证宠物爱好者非常喜爱、认可这项宠物友好服务,对应选项C;A“服务来得太晚”不是举例目的,B“人们不喜欢这项服务”和原文表意完全相反,D“人们对服务有顾虑”是下一段的内容,和该事例无关。
40. 定位最后两段逐一判断选项:A选项“秦佩璇对这项服务完全不满意”不符合原文,原文仅提到她有部分担忧,并非完全不满;B选项“这项服务不值得乘坐”属于无中生有,原文没有相关表述;C选项“秦佩璇不久后会带宠物坐火车出行”原文完全没有提及;D选项“未来人们会在铁路上看到更多便民友好的服务”和最后一段“In the future, we may see more services like this to help meet the increasing need in the market”的表述完全吻合,表述正确。
