21、 “Is it possible for Brownie not to be glad to be back after a happy stay at my uncle's？”Miss Gauss asked Dad.“It'll be all right.  Give her a bit more to eat，” he said in a low voice, without tearing his eyes  from Brownie while his wife was busy packing Brownie's belongings, saying，“Brownie is not so cute as her younger brother, Spotty.  Take care of the little thing when walking him.”

It happened on the night of July 10th, 2013 before the Gausses took a trip to Hawaii. They entrusted their pet to me  because they thought I was the first person they'd confide in. And another intention of theirs was that I had already trained Spotty into a well­known pet in my community, which can act many tricks, such as “Sit down！”  “Stand up！”  “Give me your right hand！” “Turn around！”  She can even sing,  and,  of course,  that's just a strange sharp noise.  Having seen them off, I took beautiful Brownie home in my arms, for fear that he would slip away.

Brownie_was_the_kind_of_go­go_but_unsocial_baby,_so I tried many ways to be his friend, which made Spotty rather unhappy. They often fought a battle, seemingly to break my roof loose. Soon, Brownie turned out to be an agreeable family member. He was an endearing pet, often begging for comforts in my arms. I seized the chance to train him and he achieved a lot, which I texted Mr.Gauss. They were so overjoyed and decided to fly home ahead of time to see Brownie's qualitative change.

But，all this was thoroughly destroyed because of Brownie's death in a traffic accident.  What a poor little creature！He was really dogged(紧随) by bad luck,  and he was saved from death shortly after his birth.  For whatever reason，therefore, I was overwhelmed by feelings of guilt, which seemed to run most deeply in me.

The best way to cheer ourselves up is to try first to cheer somebody else up. That will be an everlasting pain in my heart, a wound that does not heal.

【1】  What is suggested in the first paragraph?

A. A friend in need is a friend indeed.

B. Honesty is the best policy.

C. A sign of tragedy.

D. Background of the accident.

【2】 Brownie went to the writer's home mainly because________.

A. his owners would go on a trip

B. he was just saved from death

C. he would be Spotty's husband

D. he would be trained

【3】 When the writer says“Brownie was the kind of go­go but unsociable baby”， he means________.

A. Brownie was active but unfriendly

B. Brownie was easy­going but unfriendly

C. Brownie was a pet that runs fast

D. Brownie was active but homeless

【4】 How did the writer feel after the accident?

A.  Regretful.     B.  Guilty.

C.  Sympathetic.   D.  Embarrassed.

22、According to a new study, “prosocial (亲社会的) spending” may be as good for your blood pressure as a healthy diet and exercise. The majority of us believe that the way to become happier and healthier is by spending money on ourselves. We put in extra hours at work and save up money to be able to buy the things that we believe will bring us happiness. But what if spending money on ourselves isn’t the best way to become happier?

Past research has shown that when we spend money on others, we actually experience greater well-being than if we were to spend that money on ourselves. Could something as simple as buying a friend dinner or donating to charity improve our health, too — and if so, how? According to a paper published this February in the journal Health Psychology, it can — and one way it works is by lowering blood pressure.

In an initial study, researchers looked at the relationship between giving money to others(or “prosocial spending”) and blood pressure, a simple measure of cardiovascular (心血管的) health. One hundred eighty-six adults with high blood pressure were asked to report how much money they spent on charities, and then followed up with two years later. By then, the participants who had originally spent the most on charities had lower blood pressure than participants who had spent less money. This association held even after accounting for the effects of income, education level, and age.

Why does prosocial spending have these benefits? One possibility is that it increases how socially connected we feel. Feeling closer to the people we help can improve our relationships with others, which have a large impact on our health.

When we give our money and time to others, research suggests, even giving small amounts of money can be beneficial, and we end up gaining something as a result: We experience increases in health and happiness. In particular, giving to others may help build up our relationships and develop resilience (适应力) in the face of stress.

【1】What is most people’s view on how to get happier according to the text？

A．By working extra hours.

B．By spending money on themselves.

C．By donating money to charities.

D．By keeping a healthy diet.

【2】What can we learn from paragraph 3?

A．Giving money to others can measure cardiovascular health.

B．Prosocial spending reduces the negative health effects of stress.

C．Happiness comes from leading a life full of purpose and meaning.

D．The participants spending the most on charities had lower blood pressure.

【3】What may the researchers disagree with about the benefits of prosocial spending?

A．It leads to more promotion in career.

B．It increases our health and happiness.

C．It strengthens relationships with others.

D．It develops resilience in the face of stress.

【4】What is the best title for the text?

A．How Can We Maximize the Health Benefits of Giving?

B．The More Money We Spend on Others, the Happier and Healthier We Are

C．Spending Money on Others Can Lower Your Blood Pressure

D．Why Does Spending Money on Ourselves Make Us Much Healthier?

23、A Day in My Wheel Chair

Alex Johnson was born with a rare disorder and got his first wheelchair when he was 7 years old. When he was 11, he arranged to get a bunch of borrowed wheelchairs and then invited his teachers and fellow students to spend a day in them.

Dozens of volunteers quickly learned how complicated it was for Alex to get around the school. Balancing a lunch tray while also rolling down the cafeteria line? Super tricky. Those who participated also learned about the aches and pains Alex struggles with daily. There’s also the arduous, if not impossible, task of rolling a manual wheelchair up and down slopes.

Doors are the worst, they said, because they’re heavy and difficult to pull open from a rolling chair. And although the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) specifies that doorways need to be wide enough to allow a wheelchair and the person’s hands to pass through safely, but many doors in older buildings are just too narrow.

But making the world more accessible for wheelchair users is a public policy issue controlled by government officials, so Alex recently challenged the Tennessee House of Representatives to spend a day in wheelchairs. And 10 men and women took him up on it! For a full day, they worked at their desks and attended all their regular meetings in wheelchairs. The lawmakers had the same eye-opening experiences that Alex’s school pals had.

State Representative Clark Boyd said, “I expected it to be difficult, but I had no idea how frustrating it could be to just simply get around.”

Thanks to comparable wheelchair challenges around the world, more lawmakers are getting the opportunity to learn more about what it’s like for the millions of people living with a mobility disability. “My hope is that through my challenge we can make the world more accessible,” Alex said. “Together, we can change the world, one challenge at a time.”

【1】In what way were the students’ experiences of spending a day in wheelchairs and the lawmakers’ experiences similar?

A．Gaining a better understanding of what life is like for disabled people.

B．Learning that making the world more accessible is government officials’ work.

C．Learning how tiring it is to roll a wheelchair to move around the school building.

D．Understanding what it’s like for Alex to balance a lunch tray while in a wheelchair.

【2】In paragraph 3, the word “arduous” is closest in the meaning to “_________”.

A．compulsory

B．fruitless

C．ridiculous

D．challenging

【3】Why did the writer quote Clark Boyd’s remark?

A．To criticize the ADA for the narrow doors in buildings.

B．To show that Clark felt sympathy for wheelchair users.

C．To demonstrate that he had decided to change the public policy issues.

D．To convince the reader that lawmakers can make the world more accessible.

24、   While every dog owner knows their dogs can read their moods perfectly,scientists have always been a little doubtful. Now thanks to some researchers at the University of Veterinary Medicine in Vienna, Austria, we finally have some convincing evidence.

For their study. biologist Corson Miller and his team exposes eleven selected dogs to digital images of women that were either angry or happy. Half the dogs were rewarded for touching the screen when shown a happy face, while the other half got their treat for selecting those that appeared angry.

Interestingly,the dogs were not provided with the entire face. Some dogs were shown only upper halves while the others observed lower halves. That's because the scientists believe humans show their emotions on their entire face.

After some training like how to recognize small differences like the wrinkles between the eyes or the changes in their shape that accompany the happy or angry expressions, the dogs were mostly able to identify the correct expression not only on a familiar face but on a strange face. The researchers concluded the dogs were smart enough to read human emotions.

They also found those being trained to read angry expressions took a longer time to learn. They guess it may be because dogs find angry faces disgusting, causing them to withdraw quickly. However, once the smart dogs realized they were getting rewarded, the trepidation seemed to disappear. In fact, the dogs had such a good time playing the computer "game". That scientists had a hard time keeping them away from the touch screens after the study was completed.

The researchers also noticed only dogs with a male owner had a harder time understanding the expressions correctly. Since the touch-screen models were all females, this confirmed what has been observed in previous studies dogs are more efficient at reading facial expressions of people that are the same gender as their owner.

【1】How did the scientists conduct the experiment?

A．By leaving dogs to women who are either happy or angry.

B．By mixing the selected dogs together.

C．By rewarding only half of the dogs touching the screen

D．By showing digital pictures of women's happy or angry faces.

【2】The underlined word "Trepidation" in Paragraph s probably means ________.

A．fear and hesitation

B．curiosity and eagerness

C．excitement and happiness

D．doubt and sadness

【3】According to the last paragraph, dogs with female owners ________.

A．are fond of the male faces

B．are uninterested in telling the emotions on the entire faces

C．have difficulty telling the moods on the faces of males

D．can only recognize emotions of females

【4】What is the best title for this passage?

A．Mood Changes Influence Dogs

B．Dogs Identify the Moods

C．Dogs and Their Owners

D．Dog's Mood Research

【5】Where might this passage come from?

A．A science report.
