12．Before raising our dog，I used to believe some people I met were "masters of nonverbal communication"，for they were extremely skilled at reading others' body language.But soon I realized that my family dog was much better at this.
Our golden retriever（金毛寻回犬） sleeps in our bedroom.Although she appears to be in a deep sleep，the sound of moves in our bed causes her to look up，and listen.She can actually distinguish from sound and body movement，whether I am getting up to go to the bathroom or getting out of bed to start the day.
Dogs are closely attuned to sounds.Our dog appears in the kitchen each time I open the fridge or her treat jar.She arrives when I open the kitchen drawer to take out the can opener.When my wife is not feeling well or is sad，the dog comes and lies down beside her out of concern.The dog can tell if we are annoyed at her or if we are about to reward her or give her love.
Why are dogs so good at reading body language？They have sharp senses that give them an advantage over humans，and they also get a lot more practice.So an important body language lesson from your dog is practice.Make it a habit to improve your nonverbal communication skills，and work at it.Observe people interacting and see if you can tell，from their body language alone，what they are talking about，what they are feeling，and what their relationship is.Watch a TV show with the sound off and see if you can figure out what's going on.
Realize that developing nonverbal communication skills is hard work.Your dog has been doing it all its life.
（1）What does the underlined word "attuned" in Paragraph 3 probably mean？
A．Afraid.
B．Particular.
C．Addicted.
D．Familiar.
（2）How does the author's dog react when a family member appears uncomfortable？
A．She feels very sad.
B．She gets them food.
