DReading books about wildlife.BOne night, Pilar was in a deep sleep when she was woken by her cat Inti. Inti was meowing wildly outside Pilars bedroom and throwing himself a

15、gainst the closed bedroom door. When Pilar opened her eyes, she saw that her bedroom was filled with smoke. As she escaped her house with Inti in her arms, she saw that a fire was burning in her kitchen. Pilar could easily have lost her life, but Inti would not let that happen. Even though Inti coul

16、d have escaped the house through a cat door, he wouldnt leave Pilar.As amazing as this story is, it is not as uncommon as you may think. Take the example of Charlotte Lee and her horse, Thunder. One summer night, the whole family was asleep with the windows open. It was normally very quiet where the

17、y lived. Suddenly, there was a loud noise. Charlotte woke up from her sweet dream, and the noise continued. Then she heard a horse running fast towards the house. The next thing she saw was Thunder standing outside her window, neighing and shaking his head. She knew something was wrong. Charlotte qu

18、ickly got everyone out of the house before the earthquake hit. Thunder has saved her life.There are also stories of wild animals coming to the rescue of humans. One animal known to be a friend of humans is the dolphin. Once, Todd Endris was surfing with his friends when he was attacked by a 13foot (

19、4meter) shark. In the middle of the attack, a group of dolphins came to his rescue by forming a protective ring around Endris until he could get safely to shore. Without the help of the dolphins, there is little chance that Todd could have escaped.No one is sure why animals have so often come to our

20、 rescue. However, it is clear that humans and animals enjoy a close relationship. It is important that we care for them as much as we can.24Why did Inti throw himself against the door?AHe was trying to wake up his owner. BHe wanted to get out of the room.CHe felt bored and was playing by himself. DH

21、e couldnt find the way out because of smoke.25What did Charlotte do before the earthquake?AShe closed the windows. BShe was sleeping deeply.CShe ran to warn her neighbors.

DBored.CPeople from East Asia tend to have more difficulty than those from Europe in distinguishing facial expression

23、sand a new report published online in Current Biology explains why.Rachael Jack, University of Glasgow researcher, said that rather than scanning evenly (均匀的) across a face as Westerners do, Easterners fix their attention on the eyes.“We show that Easterners and Westerners look at different face fea

24、tures to read facial expressions，” Jack said. “Westerners look at the eyes and the mouth in equal measure, whereas Easterners favor the eyes and neglect (忽略) the mouth. ”According to Jack and her colleagues, the discovery shows that human communication of emotion is more complex than previously beli

25、eved. As a result, facial expressions that had been considered universally recognizable cannot be used to reliably convey emotion in crosscultural situations.The researchers studied cultural differences in the recognition of facial expressions by recording the eye movements of 13 Western Caucasian a

26、nd 13 East Asian people while they observed pictures of expressive faces and put them into categories: happy, sad, surprised, fearful, disgusted, angry, or neutral. They compared how accurately participants read those facial expressions using their particular eye movement strategies.It turned out th

27、at Easterners focused much greater attention on the eyes and made significantly more errors than Westerners did. “The cultural difference in eye movements that they show is probably a reflection of cultural difference in facial expressions，” Jack said. “Our data suggest that whereas Westerners use t

28、he whole face to convey emotion, Easterners use the eyes more and mouth less.”In short, the data show that facial expressions are not universal signals of human emotion. From here on, examining how cultural factors have diversified these basic social skills will help our understanding of human emoti

29、on. Otherwise, when it comes to communicating emotions across cultures, Easterners and Westerners will find themselves lost in translation.28The discovery shows that Westerners _.Apay equal attention to the eyes and the mouth Bconsider facial expressions universally reliableCobserve the eyes and the

30、 mouth in different ways Dhave more difficulty in recognizing facial expressions29What were the people asked to do in the study?ATo make a face at each other. BTo get their faces impressive.CTo classify some face pictures. DTo observe the researchers faces.30What does the underlined word “they” in P

32、op Social Skills DHow to Increase Crosscultural UnderstandingDAre you preparing for a big test? If so, you may want to go playing some basketball in between hitting the books. Doctors are starting to find more and more information that suggests a connection between exercise and brain development. Ju

33、dy Cameron, a scientist at Oregon Health and Science University, studies brain development. According to her research, it seems that exercise can make blood vessels (血管), including those in the brain, stronger and more fully developed. Dr Cameron is sure that this allows people who exercise to think

34、 better. As she says, “while we already know that exercise is good for the heart, exercise can actually cause physical changes in the brain.”The effects of exercise on brain development can even be seen in babies. Babies who do activities that require a lot of movement and physical activity show gre

35、ater brain development than babies who are less physically active. Even a little movement can show big results. Margaret Barnes, a scientist, also believes in the importance of exercise. She thinks that many learning disabilities that children have in primary school or high school can result from a

36、lack of movement as babies. “Babies need movement that encourages and excites their five senses. They need to set up a connection between motion and memory. In this way, as they get older, children will begin to connect physical activity with higher learning，” says Margaret.Older people can develop

37、their brains as well. Cornell University studied a group of seniors who have a shortterm memory increase of up to 40 percent after exercising just three hours a week. The exercise does not have to be very difficult, but it does have to increase the heart rate. Also, just like the motion for babies,

38、exercise for older people should not be too simple. Learning some new skills or actions, such as with yoga or taichi helps to open up memory paths in the brain that may not have been used for a long time. For most people, any type of physical activity that increases the heart rate is helpful. The ma

39、in aim is to increase the brains flow of blood. And your brain can benefit from as little as two to three hours of exercise a week.32What is the connection between exercise and brain development ?AExercise helps make our blood vessels. BPhysical exercise helps us think better.CExercise prevents us h

40、aving brain diseases. DMore physical exercises enlarge our brains.33How can exercise affect babies?AWhether they are excited or not depends on movements.BA lack of movement results from their learning disabilities.CThe more frequently they move, the cleverer they become.DThe more activities they do,

41、 the greater their brains develop.34Why is yoga suggested for seniors?AIt helps them memorise quicker. BIt decreases the heart rate.CIt includes learning new actions. DIt can be done in groups.35What is the smallest amount of exercise required to gain any benefit?A3 hours per week. B4.2 hours per we

42、ek.C1 hour per day. D40 hours per month.第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Are you a happy person or an unhappy person?If youre an unhappy person, please remember that happiness is a choice. _36_ What you need to do is to make some changes.Unhappy people are more like
