12．(★★)If your dog looks pleased to see you-it is probably because it loves
the particular way you smell．
The scent （气味）of a familiar human apparently lingers like perfumein the
animal's brain-where it causes an instinctive emotional response， research reveals．Our scent acts on a part of the canine （犬科的） brain associated with reward and the strongest reactions are produced by humans that pets know best， say scientists in America．
Gregory Bern， of Emory University in Atlanta， said， "While we might expect that dogs should be highly tuned to the smell of other dogs， it seems that the ‘reward response' is reserved for their humans． When humans smell the perfume of someone they love， they may have an immediate， emotional reaction that's not necessarily cognitive （认识的）． So is it in dogs． But since dogs have a more sensitive smell than humans． their responses would likely be even more powerful than the ones we might have． In our experiment， however． the owners of the dog were not
physically present． The canine brain responses were being caused by something distant in space and time． It shows that dogs brains have these mental representations of us that persist when we're not there．"
The experiment involved 12 dogs of various kinds by brain scans while five
different scents were placed in front of them． The scent samples （样本）came from the subject （接受试险者） itself， a dog the subject had never met， a dog living
in the subject's household． The familiar human scent samples were taken from someone else from the house other than the handlers during the experiment， so that none of the scent donors were physically present．
The results showed all five scents gained a similar response in parts of the dogs brains involved in detecting smells． Responses were significantly stronger for the scent of familiar humans， followed by that of familiar dogs． The findings showed dogs reacted strongest to the scent of familiar humans even when they were not there． Pets trained as help or therapy dogs show ed greater brain activity than
the other dogs in the test．
Researchers say the findings could improve the way to select animals helping wounded old soldiers or disabled people．
25． What's the main idea of the passage？
A． The scent of the dogs．
B． The emotions of animals influenced by the scent．
C． The differences between animals and humans in scent．
D． The sensitive scent．
26． According to the experiment． a dog will be most interested in ．
A． familiar dogs
B． a human the dog had never met
C． a dog the dog had never met
D． familiar humans
27． What can we infer from the last paragraph？
A． Animals can cure wounded old soldiers．
B． Animals can help disabled people．
C． The experiment is complex．
D． The experiment is very valuable．
28． In which column of a newspaper can we read this passage？

13．(★★)Australian electronics and homewares retailers are preparing for the invasion （涌入） of American giant Amazon， but some have decided to take the
fight up to the online-based store when it comes to local shores．
Last week， Amazon confirmed its rapid Australia expansion by announcing that it was searching for a site to build its "fulfillment center"-a large warehouse（仓库）for storing and shipping goods purchased online-but local retailer， including one
of Harvey Norman's founders Gerry Harvey， have said they will make it hard for Amazon to succeed in Australia．
Harvey Norman sells electronics， furniture and bedding-all markets in which Amazon hopes to hold a stake， but Harvey has said that he will happily go toe-to-toe with the American behemoth to hold his ground in the Australian market．
"In America and other parts of he world， they have just demolished （彻底打败）other retailers， no question about that， and they send a lot of retailers broke，" Harvey told News Corp on Monday． "There is no question they have one ambition
and like Attila the Hun， or Alexander the Great， they just want to demolish everything in front of them and then at the end of the day claim to be victorious and make their own rules． So this is a company that is extraordinary by any measure and challenges every rule that has ever been written about a business．" Some analysts have said that Amazon could take in as much as 3billion
U． S． dollars in sales in its first five years in Australia （around I percent of the total 225 billion U．S． dollar market）， but Harvey has refuted those claims，saying that local retailers would be putting up "one hell of a fight" when Amazon launches is main retail services in Australia． "We will be ou there fighting them
like no American retailer has ever fought them，" he said． "Any price that they
put we will beat or equal．"
Meanwhile， Harvey's thoughts were backed up by the former CEO of supermarket chain Woolworths． Roger Corbett， who said Amazon would struggle to keep its lower wages and claims of lightning fast delivery to rural parts when it opens in Australia． "Amazon will have an impact on the market place， but they are coming into an already very competitive market，" he told News Corp．
29． Why did Gerry Harvey react actively to Amazon's expansion to Australia？
A． To support other national brands．
B． To maintain his own share in the market．
C． To realize the Australian market's diversity．
D． To learn from Amazon's immediate success．
30． What is Amazon like according to Gerry Harvey？
A． Powerful and creative．
B． Aggressive but outdated．
C． Ambitious and reliable．
D． Promising but adventurous．
31． What message is conveyed in the last paragraph？
A． Amazon will take the lead in Australia soon．
B． Amazon has no access to the Australian market．
C． Amazon's service quality needs improving urgently．
D． Amazon's expansion to Australia will be challenging．
14．(★★)In the fight to conserve tropical rainforests， here's a tool you don't often hear about：orange peels． Specifically， 12，000 tons of them， dumped （倾倒） on the land． "You don't usually associate waste treatment with biodiversity benefits， something that's good for the environment．
Tim Treuer is an ecologist at Princeton University． and he's talking about a unique conservation story．[It] started in the early 1990s， when an orange
juice producer cal led Del Oro set up a company near the Guanacaste Conservation Area in Costa Rica， a region that contains several national parks and a widlife protection zone．
Del Oro needed somewhere to dump the orange peels， and the company also owned forested land next to the parkland that it had no intention of growing crops
on． So a deal was struck： if Del Oro donated its forested land， it could dump orange peel waste on degraded（退化的） land within the conservation area． Then a thousand dump trucks' worth of orange peels were lying on the land in 1998． "And within about six months the orange peels had been turned from orange peels into
this thick black rich soil．"
"I couldn't even find the site the fist time I saw it．" He couldn't find it because， over 16years， the orange peel waste had sent the land on a journey to become a vine-choked jungle， with three times the diversity of tree species of the neighboring control plot， richer soil and a much thicker covering． In other words，
the experiment was a success． The results appear in the journal Restoration Ecology．
Treuer says perhaps this lesson could be applied elsewhere． "It's a shame that we live in a world with nutrient-limited degraded ecosystems and also nutrient-rich waste streams． We'd like to see those things come together a little bit． That's not license for any agricultural company to just start dumping their waste products on protected areas， but it does mean that land managers， people involved with industrial-scale agricultural operations should start thinking about ways to do thoughtful experimentation to see if in their particular system they can have similar win-win-win results．"
32． What does the underlined word "It" in Paragraph 2 refer to？
A． Waste treatment．
B． A conservation story．
C． An orange juice company．
D． The biodiversity benefit．
33． What does the author say about orange peels？
A． They are particularly hard to break down．
B． They can change the color of the land soil．
C． They are beneficial to biological diversity．
D． They can gradually destroy the surface soil．
34． What do Treuer's words in the last paragraph suggest？
A． Waste can be used for environmental protection．
B． No waste can be thrown randomly on the protected areas．
C． Large-scale agricultural operations start with experiments．
D． Land managers must be ready to take on their responsibility
35． What might be the best title for the passage？
A． How to Deal with Orange Peels
B． How to Improve the Degraded Land
C． A Fruitful Experiment in Land Conservation
D． Ways to Protect Tropical Forests Effectively
