21、A shopkeeper sent his son to learn about the secret of happiness from the wisest man in the world. The boy walked a long way, and finally came upon the beautiful castle where the wise man lived.

On entering the main room of the castle, the boy was quite surprised: tradesmen coming and going, people chatting in the corners, and a small orchestra playing soft music. The wise man talked with everyone, and the boy had to wait for two hours before it was his turn.

The wise man listened carefully to the boy’s explanation of why he had come, but told him that he didn’t have time just then to explain the secret of happiness. He suggested that the boy look around the palace and return in two hours.

“Meanwhile, I want to ask you to do something,” said the wise man, handing the boy a teaspoon that held two drops of oil. “As you wander around, carry this spoon with you without allowing the oil to spill.”

The boy began to walk up and down stairs of the palace, keeping his eyes fixed on the spoon. After two hours, he returned to the wise man.

“Well,” asked the wise man, “Did you see the Persian tapestries（挂毯）in the hall? Did you see the garden that took the master gardener ten years to create?” The boy was embarrassed, and replied that he had observed nothing. His only concern had been not to spill the oil.

“Then go back and observe the wonders of my world,” said the wise man. The boy picked up the spoon and returned to his exploration of the palace. This time he observed all of the works of art on the ceilings and the walls. When he returned, he described in detail everything he had seen.

“But where are the drops of oil?” asked the wise man. Looking down at the spoon he held, the boy saw that the oil was gone.

“Well, there is only one piece of advice I can give you,” said the wise man. “The secret of happiness is to see all the wonders of the world, and never to forget the drops of oil on the spoon.”

22、To determine if dogs display jealous (妒忌的) behavior, investigators set up a testing condition where the dogs could imagine that social interaction between their owner was taking place with another dog. For safety’s sake, they didn’t use another real dog, but rather a realistic model of a dog that might be viewed as a potential competitor for attention. As a control comparison, they used a cylinder (圆柱) that was wrapped in wool.

The test started out with the dogs tied on one side of the room. The dogs observed the “dog competitor,” sitting next to their owner. While the dog watched, a barrier was rolled into place between the dog and its potential “competitor” so that they could only see their owner from the waist up. Although the dogs could not see what their owner was doing with his hands, they could see him or her bending over and repeating some loving phrases like “What a good boy!”.

The chain that the dog was tied to was attached to the equipment that could record how hard the dog was pulling on it. Thus the measure of the degree of jealousy was how powerfully dogs attempted to reach their owners when they appeared to be petting the competitor “dog” behind the barrier. It was determined that this pulling really was based on jealousy because, in the condition where the owners were petting a wool-covered cylinder rather than the model dog, the dogs pulled with far less force. Remember that all of these activities happened just because of the dog’s mental picture as to what was going on since everything below the owner’s waist was hidden by the barrier.

Dogs’ ability to connect the dots and infer that their owners’ actions were directed toward a hidden competitor suggests that dogs not only are capable of mentally representing social interactions but also specifically do so when interpreting interactions that might threaten the social bond they have with their owners. This means that dogs, like people, can feel the strong negative emotion that Shakespeare called “the green-eyed beast.”

【1】Why is a cylinder wrapped in wool used in the study?

A．To hide the owner’s waist.

B．To control the model dog.

C．To act as a comparison to the competitor dog.

D．To provide comfort for the dogs feeling jealousy.

【2】How is the dog’s degree of jealousy measured?

A．How their owners pet the cylinder.

B．How forcefully the dogs pull on the lead.

C．How often the loving phrases are repeated.

D．How their owners show love to the model dog.

【3】What makes the dogs show their jealousy?

A．The model dog was sitting nearby.

B．Their owners were bending over to repeat loving words.

C．Below the owner’s waist was a wool-covered cylinder.

D．Some competitor dog was stealing their owner’s love away from them.

23、“City Cycling USA: Los Angeles,” a pocket-sized tour guide to seeing Los Angeles on two wheels, is seemingly for visitors; for locals, its series of bike-friendly paths and itineraries (行程) are a road-map to becoming tourists in their own city again.

“City Cycling” explores five neighborhoods in the Westside and Eastside and generally north of the 10 and south of the 101. Itineraries fit the period of a day, beginning with spots for coffee, walking along museums and shops, and finishing off with recommendations of where to buy a well-deserved drink. Published by Thames and Hudson in association with London cycling brand Rapha Racing, the guidebook is among the first U.S. sections — alongside New York, Chicago and San Francisco — in a series launched in 2013 with biking tours of eight European cities.

Greatest hits such as the Bradbury Building and Echo Park Lake are included in the neighborhood tours, with plenty of fashionable places for where to eat — Eggslut, Pine & Crane and Gjusta. The guide is a reminder of how crowdedly packed each enclave (飞地) of L.A. is with unusual destinations, the large number of places to explore within a few square mile radius (半径), easily done once we step out of the car.

Los Angeles’ famously pleasant weather makes it an ideal city for exploring by bike; neighborhoods have different styles. While the car still plays an important role, cycling culture, like CicLAvia, already has full support, and is prepared to grow with the implementation (实施) of Mobility Plan 2035, which aims to make the city more bike friendly. “City Cycling USA: Los Angeles” is a start.

【1】Who is City Cycling USA: Los Angeles really intended for?

A．Locals on bikes.

B．Visitors on bikes.

C．Tourist on bikes

D．Bicyclists

【2】Where does each itinerary begin and end?

A．Where there is a café.

B．Where it is convenient for tourists on bikes.

C．Where drink can be bought easily.

D．Where there are museums and shops.

【3】What are Eggslut, Pine & Crane and Gjusta used for?

A．Destinations you can reach within a day.

B．Places where you can eat.

C．Guides to a enclave of L.A. crowded with unusual destinations.

D．Places where you can see the Bradbury Building and Echo Park Lake.

【4】Why is Los Angeles fit to explore by bike?

A．Because of its pleasant weather.

B．Because of cycling culture.

C．Because of Mobility Plan 2035.

D．Because it is bike friendly.
