26、For centuries, mankind and dogs have suffered from a communication failure. We can tell dogs what we want them to do and sometimes they comply, but we’ve always struggled when it comes to understanding the true meaning of their barks and whimpers. There is exciting news now – a dog translator has been invented to help you communicate with your furry friend.

Researchers at North Carolina State University have fashioned some kind of miracle dog translator body harness(束腰带). What’s special about it is that it doesn't just rely on the dog’s vocalizations to interpret what Fido is banging on about.

Oh no – this miracle harness reads and interprets the ordinary dogs’ body language as well, giving us a full two-way dog communication experience.

Researcher David Roberts says: "Dogs communicate primarily through body language, and one of our challenges was to develop sensors that tell us about their behavior by observing their posture remotely."

Sensors on the harness monitor the dog’s heart rate and body temperature and software builds up a vocabulary, letting the human know what the dog is feeling.

What would dogs say if they could talk to us? The human can even communicate back through the harness thanks to vibration motors, supposedly by tapping into the dog’s senses so that it can understand what you’re trying to say to it.

The dog harness is designed for dogs involved in search and rescue and other front-line work, but it's got us dreaming of a beautiful future, one where humans and dogs can co-exist as equals, with the dog able to fully express itself at all times.

【1】Why can’t people communicate with dogs?

A．They have difficulty understanding dogs’ barks and whimpers.

B．They have no idea about dogs’ behavior in relation to their posture.

C．They don’t know how to tell dogs what they want them to do.

D．They don’t have a machine to translate the dogs’ language.

【2】What does the underlined word most probably mean in paragraph two?

A．Bought.

B．Researched.

C．Influenced.

D．Made.

【3】For what purpose is the dog harness designed?

A．It is designed for dogs to understand what people are trying to say to them.

B．It is designed for dogs to communicate with people through body language.

C．It is designed to monitor the dog’s heart rate and body temperature.

D．It is designed for dogs doing search and rescue and other front-line work.

【4】What is the author’s attitude towards the possible human-dog communication?

A．Shocked.

B．Excited.

C．Embarrassed.

D．Annoyed.

28、Raised in a motherless home, my father was extremely tight-fisted（吝啬的）towards us children. His attitude didn't soften as I grew into adulthood and went to college. I had to ride the bus whenever I came home. Though the bus stopped about two miles from home, Dad never met me, even in severe weather. If I grumbled, he'd say in his loudest father-voice, "That's what your legs are for！"

The walk didn't bother me as much as the fear of walking alone along the highway and country roads. I also felt less valued because my father didn't seem concerned about my safety. But that feeling disappeared one spring evening.

It had been a particularly difficult week at college after long hours in labs. I longed for home. When the bus reached the stop, I stepped off the bus and dragged my suitcase to begin the long journey home.

A row of hedges（树篱）edged the driveway that climbed the hill to our house. Once I had turned off the highway to start the last lap of my journey, I always had a sense of relief to see the hedge because it meant that I was almost home. On that particular evening, the hedge had just come into view when I saw something gray moving along the top of the hedge, moving toward the house. Upon closer observation, I realized it was the top of my father's head. Then I knew, each time I'd come home, he had stood behind the hedge, watching, until he knew I had arrived safely. I held back my tears. He did care, after all.

On later visits, that spot of gray became my watchtower. I could hardly wait until I was close enough to watch for its secret movement above the greenery. Upon arriving home, I would find my father sitting innocently in his chair. "So! My son, it's you!" he'd say, his face lengthening into pretended surprise.

I replied, "Yes, Dad, it's me. I’m home."

【1】What does the underlined word "grumbled" in Paragraph 1 probably mean?

A．Accepted happily.

B．Spoke unhappily.

C．Agreed willingly.

D．Explained clearly.

【2】What made the author feel upset?

A．The tiredness after long hours in labs.

B．The difficulty walking on the mountain road.

C．The feeling of being less valued.

D．The fear of riding the bus home.

【3】Why did the author's father watch behind the hedge？

A．Because he wanted to help his son build up courage.

B．Because he was concerned about his son's safety.

C．Because he didn't want to meet his son in the doorway.

D．Because he wanted to give his son a surprise.

【4】Which of the following can be the best title for the text？

A．Terrible Journey Home

B．My College Life

C．My Father's Secret

D．Riding Bus Alone

29、   You want to have fun and adventure and so you decide to travel somewhere to do it. Sounds like a simple enough thing. And basically it is. But what is adventure? 【1】

For those who love sports, adventure travel can have a whole different meaning than for those who like history. The physical travel types that you can find include such adventure travel as white water rafting (白浪漂流), climbing and hiking to some mountains somewhere. To the hiker, backpacking across Ireland might be their adventure. 【2】Often the goal is to push their body’s limits and test their individual endurance (耐力).

For those who less want to climb mountains, it might mean traveling to Nepal and joining in the local festivals.【3】 Anything that is going beyond the normal defines (定义) adventure.

【4】Adventure depends on the persons physical limits, how much money the person has and what the person enjoys doing. If your life is quite busy, then sitting on a beach in the moonlight with your family might be adventure for you. The point is not what you do but that you have a good time and that it is an adventure for YOU—not for the person next to you.

Do not sit home this year when vacation time rolls around. 【5】You will be rewarded handsomely.

A.Adventure travel is not necessarily suitable for everyone.

B.To those sports lovers, adventure travel means nothing but harm.

C.Adventure travel is not necessarily a one-size-fits-all type of vacation.

D.That is the key here and the answer can be different for different people.

E.Just go beyond your normal routine and head out on an adventure vacation.

F.For this type of person, adventure travel almost always means something physical.

G.Wine tasting in Italy is also vacation adventure for those who enjoys peace and comfort.

31、Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

A new analysis of the running habits of over a million people showed that exercise is contagious — though this depends on who's spreading it.

For the study, two scientists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology used 【1】 tracker data to study the running habits of around 1.1 million people, who have around 3.4 million social network connections. Over five years, the 【2】 ran a collective 350 million kilometers, and their runs were posted online for their friends to see.

The researchers found an additional kilometer run by friends influences an individual to run an additional 0.3 kilometers. An additional kilometer per minute run by friends 【3】 a person to run an additional 0.3 kilometers per minute faster than usual. And if those friends run an extra 10 minutes, that person is likely to run about three minutes longer than they would have. The influencing effect is strongest on the same day 【4】 are posted and appears to diminish with time, the authors wrote.

The findings suggested that a runner's peers did influence him or her to run more, but not all users exerted 【5】 influence on their buddies. Individuals were more likely to be encouraged by less active peers than by more active ones.

"Social comparisons may provide an explanation for these results," the study's authors wrote. This theory, they added, "【6】 that we self-evaluate by comparing ourselves to others."

But do we make comparisons to peers performing better than us, or to those performing worse? That's been a subject of 【7】, the researchers said.

Comparisons to those ahead of us may 【8】 our own self-improvement, while comparisons to those behind us may create competitive behavior to protect one's superiority.

The findings show how effective 【9】 these real-time networks may be to help scientists design different methods to minimize the impact of social ills and maximize the 【10】 of social benefits.
