參考答案
46 E 文章的第一句話提出了Kimiko Fukuda一直在想的一件事，即狗究竟想表達什么。緊接著應該給出一個答案是比較符合邏輯的。E就是答案。
47 D 上一句話說的30萬日本養狗人已經買了人狗翻譯機。符合邏輯的一步是更多的人還會買。因此D是合理的選項。
48 A 上一句說的是Bowlingual這個裝置有兩個部分。接著應該是具體說明。A是對裝置的具體說明。
49 F 第五段的第一句話說的是：根據動物行為研究，這些雜音可以分成六類：幸福；悲痛；受挫；氣憤；聲稱；欲望。因為是人狗翻譯機，這些情感還需要人的話對應起來。
50 C 上一句話說的是：當一個客人最近來到F1Jkuda的屋時，狗大聲地叫著“bow wow”的聲音。因為是在講人狗翻澤機，下面一句話應該講的是它的翻譯。因此C是對的。
