Passage One

Airline passengers have to deal with a lot these days, getting bumped from flights and losing luggage on top of the general line anxiety that nervous passengers always feel.
At the Cincinnati northern Kentucky international airport, miniature horses deliver a calming force two times a month. Denver and Ruby are two of the thirty-fourth therapy horses brought in from a local farm. They can usually be found in the ticket counter area interacting with travelers.
More than thirty airports across the country now have therapy dogs. San Francisco has a therapy pig. San Jose, California, began a dog program after the terrorist attacks of September the eleventh. Since its beginning, the program has now grown and has twenty-one therapy dogs and a therapy cat.
The animals don't get startled. They have had hundreds of hours of airport training, so they are used to having luggage and people crowding around them. These professional animals are probably better at finding their way in the airports than the most frequent of travelers.
The passengers often say that seeing animals makes them feel much better and helps them to calm down before a flight.This little bit of support can sometimes make a big difference.Some passengers enjoy the animals so much that they call the airport to schedule flights around their visits.
Visits to nursing homes and schools are also a regular part of the horse's schedule. Their owner is already working on a new idea for a therapy animal—donkeys.

Q9:What is special about the Cincinnati northern Kentucky international airport?

概括2段主要内容辛辛那提/北肯塔基国际机场引进迷你马/治疗马 (miniature horses/therapy horses) 安抚紧张的乘客 (deliver a calming force),为正确项。A将2段miniature horses 臆断为 “宠物”,而文中只提到“动物理疗师”,未提及宠物。B借短文中luggage、horses、donkey以常识“马/驴多用于驮物”捏造干扰。D利用文中 passages、 animal主观臆断,文中并未提及“乘客带动物出行”。

Q10:What are the trained animals probably capable of doing in an airport?

4段末句指出“这些受过训练的专业动物可能比出行最频繁的旅客还要善于机场认路”,B符合该信息,为正确项。A、C分别利用导盲犬、缉毒犬等受过训练的动物的技能设置干扰,但并非本文关注的“动物理疗师”的能力。D由therapy一词臆断而来,但文中提到的是动物理疗师可“安抚乘客的紧张情绪”,而非“照顾患病乘客”。

Q11:What do some passengers try to do?

5段末句指出,一些乘客非常喜欢这些动物,甚至会打电话给机场将自己的航班安排在它们的来访期(the visits=animal visits),A契合乘客行为,为正确项。文中没有提到“拍摄照片”、“宠物”相关信息,排除B、D。C由6段owner、therapy animal—donkeys拼凑臆断而来,但该句并非乘客的行为,而是动物理疗师饲主的行为“研究如何将驴培养成新的动物理疗师”。
