阅读理解。     People realize that, although animals may not have the same intelligence as human beings, they are clever
enough to learn certain things.
     Dogs are extremely useful as companions for blind people. When a dog has been properly trained, he will
always lead his blind master (主人) in the right direction and keep him out of danger. For example, seeing-eye
dogs learn never to cross a busy road when cars are coming, even if their master ordered them to do so.
     Horses are also able to learn many things. Horses that are used for guard or police duty must learn never
to be frightened of noises and traffic. Racing horses are able to run much faster than other horses, but they
are also quite high strung (紧张). Therefore, it is necessary for those people who train them to be very patient
(耐心) and understanding.
     The movie and television can use trained animals too. Some animals, such as monkeys and foxes, are easy
to film. All you have to do is make a trail in front of the camera by putting something that smells good to the
animals over the ground. Big animals, such as lions and tigers, can be photographed as they come happily back
to their families or dinner. If a movie actor is nearby, the well-trained animal will pay no attention to him.
However, the audience may imagine that the actor escaped a terrible death. 1. Seeing-eye dogs have to learn the following except _____.[     ]
A. following the master"s order anytime
B. leading their master in the right direction
C. keeping their master safe while leading the way
D. crossing a busy road at the proper time 2. What does "make a trail" mean here in the last paragraph? [     ]
A. place something to attract the animal

A. they are following a trail of something that smells good
