Richie looks at his aunt. “Yes. It is raining hard,” he says, “but where are the cats and sheets?” “Richie, all those just mean it's raining really hard,” says Grandpa. “So why didn't you just say that?” asks Richie. “We did. You didn't know these sayings,” says Richie's cousin. “Well, now I do,” says Richie.
“Oh, the cat's out of the bag, then,” says Grandma. “What cat?” asks Richie. Everyone says, “Oh, not a real cat again.” “Right,” says Grandma. “The secret(秘密) is out.” “I get it,” says Richie.

答案
11. B 细节理解题。根据“Little Richie comes running to the window. He wants to see the cats and dogs.”可知，Richie跑向窗户是为了看猫和狗。
12. B 词义猜测题。根据“He really likes cats and dogs, but when he looks out of the window ... There are no cats or dogs at all.”可知，他非常喜欢猫和狗，但当他向外望去时，他看到的只有雨，根本看不到任何猫或狗。由此推知，Richie因为没看到猫和狗而感到不开心，故disappointed意为“失望的”，在此与unhappy近义。
