(2)_____, says William Tyznik, an expert in animal nutrition at Ohio State University, ice cream is not good for dogs. "It has milk sugar in it," he says, "which dogs cannot (3)_____ very well."
    (4)_____ by that knowledge but aware of the desire of dog owners to (5)_____ their companions, Tyznik invented a new frozen treat for dogs that, he says, is more nutritious than ice cream—and as much (6)_____ to eat. The product, called Frosty Paws, is made of a liquid byproduct of cheese and milk with the sugar (7)_____. Frosty Paws also contains refined soy flour, water, vegetable oil, vitamins and minerals. It (8)_____ Tyznik, who has also invented a horse food (called Tizwhiz) and (9)_____ dog food (named Tizbits), three years to (10)_____ the Frosty Paws formulas, and two (11)_____ to commercialize it. After losing $25,000 trying to market the invention himself, Tyznik sold the rights to Associated Ice Cream of Westerville, Ohio, which makes the product and (12)_____ it in cups.

    What would happen (19)_____ a human should mistake Frosty Paws for real ice cream? Nothing, says Tyznik. It’s (20)_____, but frankly, he says, it won’t taste very good.
选项 A、giving
B、feeding
C、sharing
D、buying
答案B
解析 本题的考点为动词的词义及用法辨析。这句话的意思是"人们不仅喜欢吃冰淇淋，他们还喜欢用它______其宠物"，一般来说，人类是把食物喂给动物的，所以feeding"喂"，feed...to..."用…喂…"，符合文意。giving"给"，其意思太宽泛，且不能表达人类和动物之间的这种喂养关系；sharing"分享"，一般用于share sth with sb的结构中；buying"买"，buy sth for sb."为某人购买某物"。因此这三项都不正确。
