Unfortunately,says William Tyznik, an expert on animal nutritionat Ohio StateUniversity,ice cream is not good for dogs. It has milk sugar in it, he says, whichdogs cannot digest very well.Bothered by that kno wledge but aware of the desire of dog owners to please theircompa nions, Tyznik inven ted a new froze n treat for dogs that, he says, is more nu tritious than ice cream-a nd as much fun to eat. The product, called Frosty Paws, is made of a liquid byproduct of cheese and milk with the sugar removed. Frosty Paws also contains refined soy flour, water, vegetable oil, vitamins and minerals. It took Tyznic,who has also inven ted a horse feed (called Tizwhiz) and ano ther dog food (n amed Tizbits ),three years to perfect the Frosty Paws formula (配方),and two attempts to commercialize it. After losing $ 25 ,000 trying to market the invention himself,Tyzniksold the rights to Associated Ice Cream of Weatervile, Ohio, which makes the product and packages it in cups.Tyznik claims that Frosty Paws has been tested extensivelyand that dogs love it.Of 1 ,400 dogs that have bee n offered the product, he says, 89 perce nt took it on thefirst try. Three out of four preferred it to milk, bone or sausages. The product, which will be available in the ice-cream sect ion of supermarkets, comes in packs of three or four cups, costi ng between $ 1. 39 and $ 1. 79.What would happen if a humanshould mistake Frosty Paws for real ice cream? Nothing, says Tyzn ik. Its harmless, but fran kly, he says, it wont taste very good.28. Two thirds of all dog owners give ice cream to their dogs because.A. they cant find any other dog food on the marketB. they take pleasure in doing this C. ice cream is cheap on the marketD. ice cream is easy to digest29. For dogs, Frosty Paws.A. is healthier tha n ice cream B. tastes much better tha n ice creamC. is sweetertha n ice cream D. looks much more attractive tha n ice cream30. With the inven ti on of Frosty Paws, Tyznik.A. became very famous overni ght B. lost all the money he hadC. made a big fortuneD. provided a froze n food for dogs31. Huma ns. A. may find the taste of Frosty Paws not so goodB. like the taste of Frosty Paws, too C. may get pois oned by Frosty PawsD. ofte n mistake Frosty Paws for real ice creamDAtte ntio nto details is someth ing every one can and should do especially in a tight job market. Bob Crossley, a human resources expert notices this in the job applications that come across his desk every day. Its amaz ing how many can didates elim in ate themselves, he says.Resumes arrive with sta ins. Some can didates dont bother to spell the compa nys n ame correctly. Once I see a mistake,! elim in ate the can didate. Crossley con cludes, If they cannot take care of these details, why should we trust them with a job?Can we pay too much attentionto details? Absolutely.Perfectionistsstruggle overlittle things at the cost of something larger they work toward. To keep from losing the forest for the trees, says Charles Garfield, associate professor at the University of California, San Fran cisco, we must con sta ntlyask ourselves how the details werework ing on fit into the larger picture. If they dont, we should drop the n and move to somethi ng else.Garfield compares this process to his work as a computer scie ntist at NASA. The Apollo IImoon launch was slightly off-course 90 percent of the time, says Gaifield, but a successful la nding was still likely because we knew the exact positi on of our goal. This allowed us to make adjustme nts as n ecessary. Knowing where we want to go helps us judge the importa nee of every task we un dertake.Too ofte n we believe what acco unts for others success is some special secret or a lucky break. But rarely is success so mysterious. Aga in and aga in, we see that by doing little things with in our grasp well, large rewards follow.32. Accord ing to the passage, some job applica nts were rejected because of.A. failingto give a detaileddescriptionof their background in theirapplicati onB. their limited education as shown in their poor spelling in writing a resumeC. their carelessnessas shown in their failure to present a clear copy of resumeD. eliminating their names from the applicant list themselves33. The word perfect ioni sts （ Para. 3. Line. 1 ） refers to those who.A. dema nd others get everyth ing absolutely rightB. know how to adjust their goals accord ing to the circumsta ncesC. are capable of achiev ing perfect results in whatever they doD. pay too much atte nti on to details only to lose their major goals34. The example of Apollo II moon launch is give n to illustrate that.A. keeping ones goal in mind helps in deciding which details can be o verlookedB. failure is the mother of successC. adjustme nts are the key to the successful completi on of any workD. minor mistakes may not be noticed in achieving major goals35. The best title for this passage would be.A. Dont Be a Perfectio nistB. Details and Major GoalsC. Importa nee of Adjustme ntsD.
