1.When you pat your pet dog, he wags (摆来摆去)his tail. That is his way of saying that he lovesyou.And, if you pay attention, you will see that he uses his tail to say so many things. Every move-ment of the tail means a different thing. If the dog is wagging its tail, it is a sign of friendliness ; if histail is straight, it means he is getting ready for a fight ; and if his tail is tucked (塞) behind his legs, itmeans he is giving up the fight.Unlike dogs, cats' tail language is not so expressive. When a cat feels threatened, he puffs him-self up to appear big and his tail shakes with tension. And when he is displeased with something, helashes out(甩动) his tail.The tail language of dogs and cats has a little story behind it. Earlier, when dogs and cats hadnot become friends with human beings, they were predators. They used to hunt other animals for theirfood. When dogs went out hunting with their friends, tail language came handy. When they were closeto each other, dogs could use facial expressions to talk. But, for long-distance c,o~mmunication, theyused their tails. Unlike dogs, cats liked to hunt alone. So, they did not need to use tail language toooften. As a result, their vocabulary in tail language is much smaller than that of dogs'.A cat tries to appear big when it is __________ .

3.What can you do to recall your dreams more often and interpret them more clearly? The experts offer these suggestions: Develop an idea. Before you go to sleep, consciously think about a topic or a person you’d like to dream about. Raise a question that’s troubling you and see how your dream responds to it. Keep track. Next to your bed, place a pen and some paper, or a tape recorder or a laptop(笔记本电脑) , to record your dreams as soon as you wake up. Try to wake up naturally,without the help of an alarm clock or barking dog that can interrupt your dream cycle. If your schedule doesn’t allow you to sleep in during the week, begin your dream journey on a weekend or during a vocation. Wake up slowly. For the first moment after you wake up, lie still and keep your eyes closed, because your dream may be connected to your body position while you slept.Try to recall the dream and then store it in your memory by giving it a name like “Late for an Exam”or “My Dare with Ashley Judd” when you rise, immediately wrote down as many images, feeling and impressions as you can. Connect the dots. To better interpret your dreams, try to make connection between your recalled dreams and recent events. Do you recognize people from the present or past? Can you detect any themes from the dream? Look for partners over several dreams that might help explain an individual dream. Change the outcome. If you have nightmares happening again and again that make it different to sleep, try to change the endings. Once you wake up from a bad dream, imagine a change in the action to create more positive outcome. If youare trapped, try to fly. In your dream, you can do what you want!The underlined word “rise”(Paragraph 6) means”_____”.
单选题A. come up~||~stand up~||~wake up~||~get up

At the 1893 Columbian Exposition, a World Fair held in Chicago, chocolate-making machinery made in Germany was displayed. It caught the eye of M.S. Hershey, who saw the potential for chocolate. He installed chocolate machinery in his factory in Lancaster, and produced his first chocolate bars in 1894.
Other Americans began mixing in other materials to make up new candy bars throughout the end of the 1890's and the early 1900's. But it was World War Ⅰ that really brought attention to the candy bar.
The U.S. Army Quartermaster Corps requested various American chocolate manufacturers to provide 20 to 40 pound blocks of chocolate to be shipped to quartermaster bases. The blocks were cut into smaller pieces and distributed to American soldiers in Europe. Eventually the task of making smaller pieces was turned back to the manufacturers.
By the end of the war when the soldiers arrived home, the American candy bar business was assured. Why? Because the returning soldiers had grown fond of chocolate candy and wanted more of the same. As a result, from that time on and through the 1920's, candy bar manufacturers became established throughout the United States, and as many as 40,000 different candy bars appeared on the scene.
The original candy bar industry had its start on the eastern coast in such cities as Philadelphia, Boston, and New York. The industry soon spread to the Midwest because shipping and raw materials such as sugar, corn syrup, and
milk were easily available. Chicago became the seat of the candy bar industry and is even today an important base.What is this passage mainly about?

Passage TwoThe great advance in rocker theory 40 years ago shows that liquid-fuel rockets were far superior in every respect to the skyrocket with its weak solid fuel. However, during the decade, large solid-fuel rockets with solid fuels about as powerful as liquid fuels have made their appearance, and it is a favorite layman ’s question to 19 inquire which one is ―better‖. The question is meaningless. One might as well ask whether a gasoline or a diesel engine is ―better‖. It all depends on the purpose, a liquid-fuel rocket is complicated, but has the advantage that it can be controlled beautifully. The burning of the rocket engine can be stopped completely: it can be reignited when desired. In addition, the thrust can be made to vary by adjusting the speed of the fuel pumps. A solid-fuel rocket, on the other hand, is rather simple in construction, though hard to build when a really at very short notice. A liquid-fuel rocket has to be fueled first and cannot be held in readiness for very long after it has been fueled. (82)However, once a solid-fuel rocket has been ignited, it will keep burning. It cannot be stopped and reignited whenever desired and its thrust cannot be varied. Because a solid-fuel rocket can be kept ready for a long time,most military employ solid fuels, but manned space-flight needs the fine adjustments that can only be provided by liquid fuels. It may be added that a liquid-fuel rocket is an expensive device; a large solid-fuel rocket is, by comparison, cheap. But the solid fuel, pound per pound, costs about 10 times as much as the liquid fuel. So you have, on the one hand, an expensive rocket with a cheap fuel and on the other hand a comparatively cheap rocket with an expensive fuel.The author tells us that_______.
单选题A. whether a liquid-fuel or a solid-fuel rocket is better depends on the purpose ~||~ neither type is superior ~||~forty years ago,large solid-fuel rockets with solid-fuel as powerful as liquid fuels were made~||~the thrust can be made to vary by adjusting the direction of the pump
8.Japan bombed Pearl Harbor in 1941.The United States was mad at the Japanese so they made many Japanese-Americans leave their homes.They were put in camps with barbed wire around the outside of the camps.

12.根据以下资料,回答82-85题。 Can animals be made to work for us? Some scientists think that one day animals may be trained to do a number of simple jobs that are now done by human beings. They point out that at a circus, for example, we may see elephants, monkeys, dogs and other animals doing quite skillful things.Perhaps you have seen them on the television or in a film.If you watch closely, you may notice that the trainer always gives the animal a piece of candy or a piece of fruit as a reward.The scientists say that many different animals may be trained to do a number of simple jobs if they know they will get a reward for doing them. Of course, as we know, dogs can be used to guard a house, and soldiers in both old and modem times have used geese to give warning by making a lot of noise when a stranger or an enemy comes near.But it may be possible to train animals to work in factories.In Russia, for example, pigeons which are birds with good eyesight, are being used to watch out for faults in small steel balls that are being made in one factory.When the pigeon sees a ball which looks different from others, it touches a steel plate with its beak.This turns on a light to warn people in the factory.At the same time a few seeds are given as a reward.It takes three to five weeks to train a pigeon to do this and one pigeon can inspect 3 000 to 4 000 balls an hour. Apes have been used in America in helping to make cars, and scientists believe that these large monkeys may be one day gather crops and even drive trains.83 The trainer usually gives the animal a piece of candy or fruit __.
单选题A. when it is hungry~||~before it plays a trick~||~when it starts to play a trick~||~after it has done the trick

14.根据以下材料,回答48-51题 “When one of the doctors criticizes(批评)me,I get defensive:I feel like a child again,being scolded.and l want to explain that l’m not wrong.”says Viola,a nurse.This is a common reaction(反应)to criticism,but not a good one.There are better ways of dealing with criticism. (1)Try to be objective(客观).When Sol was criticized by his new employer for not havingmade a sale,Sol’s reaction Was to feel sorry for himself.“I had put everything I had into makingthat sale,”Sol says,“and I felt that I had failed as a person.I had to learn through experience not to react like that to each failure.” (2)Take time to cool down.Rather than reacting immediately to criticism,take some time tothink over what was said.Your first question should be whether the criticism is fair from the otherperson’s position.The problem may be a simple misunderstanding of what you did or your reasons for doing it. (3)Take positive(积极的)action.After you cool down,consider what you can do about thesituation.The best answer may be“nothing”.“I finally realized that my boss was having personalproblems and taking them out on me because l was there,”says Sheila.“His criticisms didn’t reallyhave anytlling to do with my work,so nothing I said or did was going to change them.”In Sheila’s case,the best way to deal with it was to leave her job.However,that’s an extreme reaction.Youmay simply explain your opinion without expecting an in—depth discussion.You may even decide.thatthe battle isn’t worth fighting this time.The key,in any case,is to have a reasonable plan.According to the writer,you should take time to think about criticism because.

15.Debate is a valuable way to practise communicating. It can also bring long-lastingrewards,especially for people working with Western businesses. The main activity of debate ispresenting one' s opinion and suppmting it with evidence,such as statistics or facts. It is a way ofpersuasive communication.Charles Lebeau helped create the "Discover Debate" method. He says debate is important tounderstanding how people communicate in Western business. Successful debaters learn how togive their opinkm,reasans and support. "What we are trying to do is to develop a kind of thinkingor approach to discussion and how to interact (交流) with someone else' s opinion, rather thanbrush their opinion aside. "Debate skills are also important in selling a product, he says. In that situation, the judges are the customem. "So on Monday, for example, one company may come in and present their case to the customer and they" ll make as strong a ease as they can. On Tuesday, the next day, anothercompany will come in and present their ease to the customer. Usually the party that can presentthe strongest case wins”Debate also strengthens critical thinking. In other words, it helps students learn to askquestionsand try to understand someone' s reasons and evidence.lift-.

19.Memory is the ability to keep track of things that have happened in the past. Memory really isleaning. One needs memory to ride a bicycle. A dog needs to remember if it is to come when called.Memory is said to be stored in the brain as a “memory trace (记忆痕) .” What makes up this traceis not known. Some scientists believe that certain chemical substances may carry certain memories.For example, one substance, when given to rats, causes them to dear the dark.Other research into memory has to do with how the brain works. Psychologists use three meansto find out how a person remembers. For example, give a person a grocery list. Let the personmemorize the list, then put it away. The most natural way to find out how much a personremembers of the grocery list is to ask what he or she remembers. This is called the method ofrecall. Another method is called recognition. Gibe the person another grocery list. Ask him or herto choose items on the first list from the items that are on only the second list. Often a person willbe able to recognize thins that he or she cannot recall. A third method of finding how much aperson remembers is called relearning. Here the person is asked to read over the first list. Theperson will probably learn the list the second time faster than he did the first time. The differencein the time it takes to relearn the list is thought of as a measure of how much a person hasremembered.One way of remembering something is to repeat it many times. Interest is very important. Boringlists of facts are much more difficult to remember than something that we understand and areinterested in. Motivation, or wanting to do something, is also important. Motivation is linked withreward. For example, a hungry animal quickly learn how to do something if that action gets theanimal food. In humans, wanting to learn is often motivation. The praise of a teacher or theknowledge that an answer is correct is rewarding.We can learn from the 2nd paragraph that_____.
单选题A. bad memories may cause rats to fear the dark~||~it is hard to tell what a memory trace consists of~||~chemical substances carry certain memories~||~memory is stored in the brain as a substance
