2016届湖南长沙市高考英语二轮阅读理解训练（69）（含答案）

　　阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。

　　If you are a college student, probably you are greatly stressed when the final exams are coming. University students are good at coming up with ways to cope with the stress of college life. But some students at a college in Canada have started a new trend that is family-friendly, opening a puppy room for students during finals week (December 4-6)

　　The National Post reports that for three days during finals week, students at Dalousie University can spend some time with lovely dogs, which is being brought in by Therapeutic Paws of Canada. “It is something that people need right now because students are superstressed,” Michael Kean, an environmental science student who first proposed the idea, told me the Post.

　　After the student union first advertised the event on its Face book page, the news of the Puppy Room spread quickly across social networking sites. “Our expectations are pretty high right now,” Gavin Jardine, vice president of student life at Dalhousie told the Post. “We had 1800 shares, thousands of ‘likes’. It attracted a lot of attention on Twitter as well. It spread as quickly as a virus.”

　　Don LeBlance of Therapeutc Paws of Canada said all the dogs attending the event come from loving homes and enjoy the company of people. A number of different breeds will be on hand to interact with students who sign up to visit the Puppy Room. And buzz from the Dalhousie Puppy Room has spread so quickly that LeBlance says a half dozen universities have already called about staging similar events for their students.
