想带宠物一起出远门?2025年4月8日起,中国铁路快运开启了宠物托运试点服务!我们应该如何预订这项服务?该服务对宠物有何限制?一起来了解一下吧!
Do you want to take your pets on a long trip? China Railway Express began a pilot pet consignment service(托运服务) on April 8. That means the owners can travel with their pets on the same train.
China Railway Express states that pet owners need to book(预定) at least two days in advance through the 12306 app. Pets must be healthy cats or dogs under 15 kilograms in weight and no taller than 40 centimetres. During the trip, pets are put in special containers in a separate place, away from pet owners. The railway workers give them water, but owners cannot feed or visit them. Now this service is only on 10 train routes between five stations: Beijing South, Jinan West, Nanjing South, Shanghai Hongqiao and Hangzhou East. The company says the service is part of efforts to modernize China's transport system and meet the growing need for pet-friendly travel.
According to the 2025 China Pet Industry White Paper, in 2024, 18. 7% of pet owners spent money on pet travel—an increase of 4.9% points compared to 2023. Many pet owners feel both happy and worried about the new service. "I think it's good," said Qin Peixuan, 24, a cat owner. "The service meets people's needs well, as more and more people think pets are part of a family." However, Qin feels the containers are too small for her cat and is worried about the air quality. Another cat owner, Wang Shanshan, 27, shares similar thoughts. Three years ago, when she moved from Wuhan to Beijing, her short-nosed cat was not allowed to fly, so she used a road transport service for pets. "My cat had to spend a day and night on the road," Wang said. However, she worries that keeping cats and dogs together might make the cats afraid when dogs bark, which could be life-threatening for some cats.
The policy still needs time to get better, but the new pet consignment service shows that railways are becoming more user-friendly. In the future, more services like "pet transport" will likely appear to meet growing market needs. This will help railways become a bigger part of daily life, not just a way to travel.

1. A [解析]词句猜测题。根据画线句“During the trip, pets are put in special containers in a separate place, away from pet owners.”可知,旅行期间,宠物被放在一个单独的地方的特殊容器里,与主人分开,即宠物和它们的主人待在不同的地方。故选A。
2. D [解析]细节理解题。根据第二段中的“the service is part of efforts to modernize China's transport system and meet the growing need for pet-friendly travel”可推断出,宠物主人可能会热烈欢迎这种对宠物友好的服务。故选D。
3. D [解析]细节理解题。根据第三段中的“However, she worries that keeping cats and dogs together might make the cats afraid when dogs bark, which could be life-threatening for some cats.”可知,一些宠物主人对这项服务表示担忧,因为猫和狗被放在同一个地方。故选D。
4. C [解析]观点态度题。根据最后一段中的“The policy still needs time to get better, but the new pet consignment service shows that railways are becoming more user-friendly. In the future, more services like ‘pet transport’ will likely appear to meet growing market needs.”可知,作者认为虽然政策还需要改进,但还是对新的宠物托运服务充满希望。故选C。

【分析】
1. 第1题是词句猜测题，解题时先定位划线句子，抓住句中“separate place（单独的地方）”和“away from pet owners（远离宠物主人）”这两个关键信息，理解句子核心是宠物和主人不在同一处，再对比选项选出符合意思的答案。
2. 第2题是细节判断题，需要回到第二段逐一核对选项：A选项中“over three days”与原文“at least two days”不符；B选项中“sick dog”不符合“healthy cats or dogs”的要求；C选项中主人自己喂水与原文“railway workers give them water”矛盾；最后从“meet the growing need for pet-friendly travel”可推断出宠物主人会欢迎该服务，确定正确选项。
3. 第3题是细节理解题，解题时定位到第三段宠物主人的担忧内容，找到“keeping cats and dogs together might make the cats afraid”这一关键句，对应选项即可得出答案。
4. 第4题是观点态度题，需关注文章最后一段，从“still needs time to get better, but...more services like ‘pet transport’ will likely appear”这类表述中，看出作者虽然提到政策有待完善，但对该服务的未来持积极态度，从而判断出作者的情感。
