21．（6分）It was a Friday morning, 7:30a.m. I felt too lazy to drive my car so I asked my son to book a taxi. In five minutes, the taxi reached the entrance gate, waiting for my arrival. I just saw the car number and entered inside the car. I was so busy that I didn’t pay any attention to the driver. I was searching for an important paper from my bag, so I said, “Please, go quick!

Maybe, around thirty or thirty-two! For the first time, I saw a lady driving a taxi!
Hundred times, I had traveled in a taxi, but I never saw any lady driving a taxi, I didn’t know why I became so enthusiastic about knowing why she had chosen this profession.

I have completed my education. I have done my MBA course.” “Oh, my God! Why did you then choose this profession, instead of going for an academic career?”
She smiled and the way she expressed her views made me amazed! Very politely, she said “Driving was my passion (热情) from my childhood, ma’am! Of course I do respect each and every job. In this case, at least I fulfill my desire! I love driving! I don’t mind for a big or small job. I want a job where I can get satisfaction.

（8分）During the period from 1660 through 1800, Great Britain became the 23．
world’s leader. Language itself became submitted to rules during this period. This need to fix the English language is best illustrated (描述) in the making of The Dictionary of the English Language by Samuel Johnson. Guides to the English language had been in existence before Johnson began his project in 1746. These, however, were often little more than lists of hard words. When definitions of common words were supplied, they were often unhelpful. For example, a “horse” was defined in an early dictionary as “a be ast well known”.
Johnson changed all that, but the task was not an easy one. Renting a house at 17 Gough Square, Johnson began working in the worst of conditions. Supported only by his publisher, Johnson worked on the Dictionary with five assistants. Compared to the French Academy’s dictionary, which took forty workers fifty-five years to complete (1639-1694), Johnson’s dictionary was completed by very few people very quickly.
Balanced on a chair with only three legs, Johnson sat against a wall in a room filled with books. Johnson would read widely from these books, mark passages illustrating the use of a particular word, and give the books to his assistants so that they could copy the
passages on slips of paper. These slips were then stuck to eighty large notebooks under the key words that Johnson had selected. Fixing the word by this method, Johnson could record a word，s usage and its definition.
How many passages were used? According to Johnson’s modern biographer Walter Jackson Bate, the original total number could have been over 240,000. How many words were defined by the lexicographer? Over 40,000 words appeared in two large books in April of 1755. Did Johnson fully understand the huge task he was undertaking when he began? As he told his contemporary bi ographer James Boswell, “I knew very well what
I was undertaking and very well how to do it —and have done it very well.”
1、What is the problem of early English dictionaries?
A．They only offer simple pictures.
B．They list just a few foreign words.
C．They simply give some translations.
D．They add no more than some big words.
2、What does the underlined word “lexicographer” in pa ragraph 4 refer to?
A．A publisher. B．A biographer.
C．A maker of dictionaries. D．An assistant.
3、What can we infer about Samuel Johnson from the text?
A．He standardized English.
B．He cared about authority a lot.
C．He gained much financial support.
D．He complained of working conditions.
4、What is the purpose of this passage?
A．To discuss the problems of dictionaries.
B．To encourage people to work on a project.
C．To persuade people to buy the new dictionary.
D．To introduce how Johnson complete his dictionary.
24．（8分）When a dog looks at you with big puppy-dog eyes, it’s hard for you to go away, and you may speak out “Awww” without hesitation. However, there’s a reason why you find a dog’s stare so attractive. That sweet stare actually causes the release of a particular hormone, or chemical messenger in the body. This hormone creates feelings of affection in humans. The same thing happens to dogs when people look back at them.
Scientists believe this helps people and their four-legged friends bond, or feel connected. Scientists have wondered what causes dogs to lovingly stare at their owners. To find out, a team of researchers from Azabu University in Japan studied 30 owners and their dogs.
The researchers found that after the pets and their owners spent half an hour together, both showed a rise in oxytocin (催产素). One key role of this hormone in many animals is to promote bonding, like that between a mother and newborn. The increase of oxytocin didn’t happen, though, when scientists repeated the experiment with wolv es and the humans who had raised them.
A second experiment also found that if dogs were given oxytocin, they looked at their owners longer. Scientists aren’t sure exactly why, but this reaction occurred only with female dogs. Their owners oxytocin levels also rose as a result.
The result of these experiments might help answer an age-old question: How did the fearsome wolf ancestor of modern dogs turn into man’s best friend? Takefumi Kikusui, an animal scientist who worked on the study, thinks that the change happened when dogs first became domestic (驯养的).
According to Kikusui, there may have been a small group of wild dogs that were naturally friendlier. “Humans are very sensitive to eye contact. By using this special communication tool, the dogs are able to win over our hearts. If they are more likely to make eye contact, it would be easier for them to bond with dog owners,” Kikusui said. 1、According to Paragraph 1, people say “Awww” to ________.
A．make the dog stare at them
B．express their love for the dogs
C．draw the dogs attention away
D．warn the dogs not to approach them
2、According to the passage, oxytocin can ________.
A．reduce animals pain of giving birth
B．motivate animals desires to protect others
C．help animals to develop a better relationship
D．enable animals to survive more easily from dangers
3、The underlined words “the change” in Paragraph 4 refer to that ________. A．dogs became friends with humans
B．wolves begin to bond with humans
C．dogs and wolves are best friends
D．dogs were domesticated by humans
4、What’s the purpose of the passage?
A．To call on humans to be friendly to dogs.
B．To give advice on how to get along with dogs.
C．To introduce the evolution process of wild dogs.
D．To explain why humans and dogs are connected.
