When your friend yawns as you chat, don't be angry. For, far from being a sign of boredom, yawning may signal empathy (同感).
Scientists believe that contagious(容易感染他人的) yawning—yawning 36 someone else does —is a sign of being very 37 in the first person's thoughts and feelings.
This is the theory of Italian researchers who 38 more than 100 men and women from four continents as they went to work, ate in restaurants and sat in waiting rooM:.
When one of the 39 yawned, the researchers noted whether anyone within 10 feet yawned within the next three 40 .
Their results showed that race and 41 had no effect on whether the uncontrollable urge to yawn was 42 . But how well the two people knew each other did.
A reciprocal(相互的) yawn was most 43 to occur among family members, then 44 , then acquaintances. The phenomenon was 45 common among strangers, the journal PLoS ONE reports.
The University of Pisa team concluded that contagious yawning is driven by how emotionally (感情上的) 46 we are to someone and so how likely we are to 47 the same feeling with them.
They say there are other reasons to link yawning with empathy. 48 , we start to "catch" yawns from the age of four or five, around the time when we 49 the, ability to identify each other's emotions 50 .
Studies also show that those easily 51 by contagious yawning are better at knowing _52 others are thinking about from their faces.
Most animals, including snakes and fish, yawn, 53 it is; only contagious in humans and chimps (猩猩) and, according to a recent study, dogs.
The researchers, from the University of London's Birbeck College, put 29 54 in a room
with a yawning man and found that 21, or 72%, also started to yawn. They said the skill may allow the pet to build stronger 55 with their owners.

第三部分：阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分, 满分40分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

A
I was driving down the road the other day, listening to sweet music coming out of my car radio. My heart felt peaceful, my mind was clear, and my soul was full of love. Even with all its probleM: life seemed good. Then the music stopped and the news came on. There was talk of another famous millionaire in drug rehab (康复) after an incident with the police. There was news on the murder of a poor man whose life was supposed to be changed after winning the lottery.
There was even a discussion on how much greed and excess (放肆) had damaged our world.
Every story seemed to point once again to the old saying that money can't buy happiness. Hearing them made me think of a movie I saw many years ago on Mother Teresa's home for the dying in India. What struck me most when I watched it wasn't the unbearable poverty there. It wasn't the sickness and suffering that the people there were going through. It was rather the peaceful smiles of love, kindness, and happiness that they shared with the Sisters and with each other.. These people had nothing. Many were struggling at the end of death. Yet, they knew the simple truth that so many of us here are still learning: Joy is Free.
We can have joy and spread joy everyday of our life here. Don't love or admire dollar signs and think that money will bring you happiness then. Joy can't be purchased. It can't be owned. It can only be chosen and then given freely to others. In the eyes of eternity (永恒) money is only worthless paper. The only thing that matters is the love within you and the love that you give to the world. Make that your legacy (遗产) and your life will forever be rich in joy.
56. According to the first paragraph, we can know that______.
A. the author was very light-hearted that day
B. the poor man's life was improved greatly due to the lottery
C. the author has a habit of driving while listening to music
D. the millionaire was put in prison for taking drugs
57. All the information about the movie mentioned in Paragraph 2 is true EXCEPT______.
A. it was about Mother Teresa's contributions
B. it left the author a deep impression
C. people in it were very kind and happy
D. people in it were extremely poor and suffering
58. By saying "Make that your legacy", the author means "______".
A. Give your fortune to your coming generations
B. Treat your fortune as very valuable things
C. Pass your joy on to your coming generations
D. Have joy and spread joy to people around you
59. Which section of a newspaper is this passage most probably taken from?
A. Business.
B. Culture.
C. Life.
D. Entertainment.
B
Lots of human foods are dangerous to pets, many of which may seem tasty to our pets but can prove deadly if eaten. It can be very appealing to offer pets food from the table, but pets should not be given human food unless recommended by veterinarians (兽医).
If you suspect your pet may have eaten a dangerous food, contact veterinarians immediately. In many cases, early recognition and treatment are very important.
Chocolate, Coffee, and Caffeine
Chocolate contains theobromine, a chemical that is toxic (有毒的) to dogs in large quantities. Chocolate also contains caffeine, which is found in coffee, tea, and certain soft drinks. Different types of chocolate contain different amounts of theobromine and caffeine. For example, dark chocolate and baking chocolate contain more of these compounds (化合物) than milk chocolate, so a dog would need to eat more milk chocolate to become ill. However, even a few ounces of chocolate can be enough to cause illness in a small dog, so no amount or type of chocolate should be considered "safe" for a dog to eat. Chocolate toxicity can cause vomiting (呕吐), diarrhea, rapid or irregular heart rate, restlessness, muscle tremors, and seizures. Death can occur within 24 hours of intake.
Grapes and Raisins
Grapes and raisins can cause sudden kidney failure in .cats and dogs. It is unknown what the toxic agent is in these fruits. However, clinical (临床的) signs can occur within 24 hours of eating and include vomiting, diarrhea, and tiredness. Other signs of illness relate to the eventual shutdown of kidney functioning.
Garlic and Onions
Garlic and onions contain chemicals damaging red blood cells in cats and dogs. Affected red blood cells can damage or lose their ability to carry oxygen effectively. Cooking these foods does not reduce their potential toxicity. Fresh, cooked, and/or powdered garlic and/or onions are commonly found in baby food, which is sometimes given to animals when they are sick, so be sure to read food labels carefully.
Many cases of human food toxicity in pets are accidental. A pet may find and chew on a package of gum or candy, or steal food from a countertop (灶台) or table. The best way to prevent this is to keep all food item: in closed cupboard or areas inaccessible to pets. This may be
particularly difficult during the holiday season, when more candy, chocolate, fruit baskets, and other food item: are around. During these times, increased alertness(警惕性) can help prevent pets finding and eating dangerous foods.
Children should also be taught to never give candy, gum, or other human foods to pets.
60. What can we learn from the first two paragraphs?
A. You can give pets human food with the recommendation of veterinarians.
B. All human foods are deadly to pets.
C. It is useless to turn to veterinarians after your pets have eaten dangerous food.
D. It is easy to judge whether a pet has eaten dangerous food.
61. What effect do chocolate and grapes have in common if eaten by pets?
A. They both can cause pets' sudden kidney failure.
B. They both contain different amounts of theobromine and caffeine.
C. They both can cause pets to vomit.
D. They both can cause pets' hearts to beat irregularly.
62. Which of the following statements is true?
A. It is safe for pets to eat cooked garlic and onions.
B. Baby food is always safe to pets.
C. Many pets eat the human food by chance.
D. Affected red blood cells can't carry oxygen at all.
63. What is the purpose of the author's writing this article?
A. To tell children never to give candy, gum, or other human food to pets.
B. To warn us not to give pets human foods as we like.
C. To tell us some human foods which are dangerous to pets.
D. To call on us to take good care of pets.
C
The Hunan Satellite TV (HNTV) show "Where are we going, Dad?" is a big hit. Many famous stars brought their children to a strange village alone, where they had to spend 72 hours with their children. The program fully showed us a modern version of "how to be a good father". As the young parents today are too busy to look after their children, this new form of "Lost on the way" played by nanny (保姆) Daddy and cute kids caused a lot of people's emotional resonance
(共鸣). Both the kids and their parents will find their hearts are being drawn closer. But this kind of feeling has just proved there is a big spiritual barrier between the modern parents and children.
The TV shows like "Children are hard to support!", "Where are we going, Dad?", "hot mom" and "cute kids" are becoming more and more popular. All of these show the new parents' confusion in children's education and the appeal for the balance between career and family.
In real life, on the one hand the young parents feel helpless because they are too busy to accompany their children under the pressures of work and life; on the other hand they continue to do so. The data collected by HNTV shows that nearly two-thirds of their audience are female, among whom 36% are aged from 25 to 34. We can imagine such a scene that one evening a young mother is watching the show with her young children, while her husband is still at work or trapped in socializing, or maybe is just playing computer games in the bedroom. The story of a child without the company of father is still going on. In fact, it is sometimes the same to mothers. In a modern family, it is often the old who take the responsibility of raising a child. The participation of mother in the children's education is also very low.
It is just this kind of confusion where the parents have gone in the modern family education, and where the parents will guide their children to go that "Where are we going. Dad?" shows us. If a child wants to grow up healthily and safely into a modern citizen with independent personality and free spirit, it is very important for him or her to follow the parents who serve as their first teachers. Maybe this is the real reason why such kind of TV prograM: could get hot. The truth is that children will go where their parents go; and society will go where the children go.
64. From the first 2 paragraphs, we can know that______.
A. the popularity of TV shows is due to the famous stars
B. the TV program makes many strange villages well-known
C. there is no barrier between the fathers and kids in the show
D. young parents usually don't know how to balance career and family
65. Which of the following statements is true?
A. Parents are too busy to accompany their children.
B. Most of HNTV's audience are young ladies.
C. In modern families, kids are usually taken care of by their mothers.
D. Lack of independence prevents kids growing up healthily.。
