Dear Alan,Guess what? I have a chance to choose my new place to live! I'm excited and a little nervous. Could you please give me some help?I'm not sure whether I should live in a house or in an apartment. On one hand, a house will be too big for just one person, so maybe I should rent an apartment. On the other hand, if I rent a house, I could find someone else to share with me. The only problem is that a house full of people might be too noisy for me. I prefer to have my own space. The city has some nice apartments, but they are also too expensive. However, if I could find a two-bedroom apartment and get a roommate, that would make it more affordable. I just need to search for a roommate who is neat and quiet. You know I can't live with someone who is loud and messy. I don't have a car, so I also need to think carefully about the location. I probably need to look for somewhere near a bus stop or an underground station. That way I will have more time to study and spend less time travelling.I'm looking forward to your reply.Love,Victor （1）Why does Victor feel excited? （不超过7个词）（2）What kind of person does Victor want to share the house with? （不超过3个词）（3）What place does Victor want to find to live in?（不超过5个词）【答案】（1）Because he can decide where to live.（2）Neat and quiet.（3）A place with convenient traffic.【解析】【分析】文章大意：本文主要说明维克多写给艾伦的一封信，信中维克多就自己选择新居向艾伦寻求帮助。

这种阅读要求考生掌握事实、了解细节，同时也要求考生领会深层含义、把握主旨。

1．快读全文，掌握大意阅读理解与完形填空题一样，属“语篇理解”题型，宜先通读全文，初步了解短文的整体框架、主旨大意及作者意向，以获取主要信息和各段中心内容。

2．细读题目，有的放矢细读文后的题目在于审读这些题目是针对什么设计的。

带着问题进行有目的地阅读，可以边阅读边选出考查表层情况试题的答案，从而提高效率。

3．再读全文，掌握细节在初读文章和了解题目要求后细读全文，可用铅笔做标记，把有关的人物、事件、时间、地点、起因划出来。

例如，凡逢人物就圈起来，看后一数，有几个圈就是几个人，一目了然。

经过这样的处理，对文章的内容和细节便会胸有成竹，对事态的发生、发展和解决有了更深入的理解。

4．试选答案，先易后难对那些深度理解的题目(多为主观判断题)，应在查阅短文、找出依据、仔细推敲后，再确定正误。

在选择答案时，有些选项干扰性很强，这时可以采用排除法进行选择；有一部分试题的答案在文中无法直接找到，而要求考生根据已有的常识结合文章来进行判断。

考生在推理时，切不要加入自己的主观印象或加入自己的情感。

在未完全读懂文章时不要匆忙选定答案，抓紧时间在尚未读懂的地方细读几遍，力争通过上下文的联系理解文章再选定答案。

5．复读全文．核对答案要用全文的主题思想核对各题，上下对照，研究其内在的联系和逻辑关系，并依次审核各道题目的答案。

Their experiments show how we sometimes just do not see what is in front of our eyes because 4Here is one of their most famous experiments. In this experiment, the participants (参与者) were shown a video of two groups of people (one group in white T-shirts and one group in black T-shirts) who passed basketballs around in a hallway. Each group had three members. Simons and Chabris asked the participants to count how many times the white team passed the ball.

A lot of people still like to ride horses. And horse racing is also popular. So it is not surprising that Americans use this animal when they talk.Long ago, rich or important people rode horses which were very tall. Today, if a girl acts like she is better than everyone else, you might say she should get off her high horse.Yesterday my children wanted me to take them to the playground. But I had to finish my work, so I said, "Hold your horses. Wait until I finish what I am doing." My two boys like to compete against each other and play in a noisy and not very careful way. I always tell them to stop horsing around or someone could get hurt.Last night, I got a telephone call while I was watching my favourite TV show. I decided not to answer it because wild horses could not drag (拖，拽) me away from the television.There was nothing that could stop me from doing what I wanted to do.Sometimes you get information straight from the horse's mouth. Let us say your teacher tells you there is going to be a test tomorrow. You could say you got the information straight from the horse's mouth.You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make him drink. That means you can give someone advice but you cannot force him to do something he does not want to do.1. Mike, don't with your brother. You'll break my mirror!2. --I can't stand Mary any more!

Soon, his friend Ben Rogers appeared,eating an apple. Tom pretended (假装) not to see him."Tom!" Ben said. "Why are you working?""Oh, it's you, Ben," Tom said, "I didn't notice you. '"I'm going for a swim," Ben said, "but you don't want to come. You want to work, don't you?It's much nicer!" Ben laughed loudly. Tom looked seriously at Ben and said, "What is work?What do you call work?""Isn't that work?" Ben asked."Well, no. Does a boy get the opportunity to paint a fence every day? You've never painted a fence, have you? Auntie says I have to do it with great care!""Please, Tom. Let me do a little," said Ben."No, Ben. If you do, you'll do it wrong. You can't paint very well. '"I won't do it wrong. I'll be really careful. I'll give you my apple." Tom gave him the brush and paint with a sad face, but in his heart he was glad. His trick had worked.After Ben got tired and left, other boys came along and Tom said the same things to them.Soon, the whole fence was painted white, but not by Tom.

I hadn't driven that type of van before. I let too much petrol into the engine. So I had to wait for twenty minutes. 2I drove to one house to deliver a sofa. There was a problem, though. When I looked in the back of the van, the sofa wasn't there. Then I remembered the boss had told me to collect the sofa from another shop. I'd forgotten to do that. I drove to the shop in the next town. 3 All the shops are closed on Monday afternoons. I would have to call again the next day instead.4When I arrived at the next house, I opened the doors of the van at the back. A heavy chair fell out onto my foot. Ooooooww! I jumped up and down the street on one leg. It was very painful! I was able to walk on one and a half feet up to the house with the chair.The afternoon was getting very hot. I hadn't eaten or drunk anything and didn't have any water in the car. When I went through the next town, I met a traffic jam. 5 Two hours later, I got to the last shop. It was 6'clock. What a bad day!(十七)You know how much your telephone has changed over the past 10 years? Your car will change even more than that in the next 10 years. One of the biggest changes is that cars will drive themselves."We certainly have the technology for it now." says Andrew Poliak of automotive (机动车) technology supplier QNX. "We expect self-driving cars to be a mainstream thing between 2020 ]and 2025.'The American company Google has been working on self;driving cars for years. These cars are already on the roads in the United States and are truly self-driving. They have no steering wheels (方向盘) or pedals (踏板), Last week, the police ordered one of Google's cars to stop for driving too slowly on a public road. The car was not breaking any law, so no one was punished.Another American company, Tesla, added an "Autopilot" feature to its cars last month. With the Autopilot turned on, the vehicle drives itself. The car will speed up, slow down, brake and drive by itself. You can take over driving any time by turning the steering wheel or touching a pedal. The car uses sensors (感应器) to know when driveway changing is safe and whether it should speed up or slow down.Tesla Autopilot is made for cross-country driving. It keeps you in the driveway and helps you avoid hitting other cars. It does not work well on local roads, for it will not stop at a red light or stop sign.Reporter Carolyn Nicander Mohr tried the Autopilot feature of a Tesla earlier this month. She had a hard time trusting the car to do what it should do. She thought about disabling the。

It became aggressive.B. It behaved abnormally.C. It moved up and down.D. It stood near the water's edge.5.What does the underlined word "astounded" in paragraph 3 probably mean？______A. Moved.B. Disappointed.C. Amused.D. Shocked.6.What do we know about the swan？______A. It survived a bacterial infection.B. It died despite being cared well.C. It was badly poisoned by the river water.D. It was sent to the recovery center by two strangers.7.Which of the following can best describe Cordova-Rojas？______A. Kind and insistent.B. Modest and cautious.C. Brave and generous.D. Curious and creative.CA new report links eating eggs to an increased risk of heart disease.The results followseveral earlier studies that found eating eggs was generally healthy.The new reportcombines data from six other earlier studies.It shows a 6 percent increased risk of heart disease when the average number of eggs a person eats each day increased by half an egg.In the United States,eggs are generally one of the top sources of cholesterol（胆固醇）ina person's diet.Individuals with higher levels of cholesterol in their diets are at increasedrisk for the development of heart disease later in life.The team examined data gatheredfrom six studies that involved a total of 29，615 people.Earlier researchers had followed these people for an average of 17.5 years.At the start,the participants answered questions about the foods they ate.But they were not asked about their diets at any time after that.Over time,there were 5，400 heart-related incidents among the group.This included 2，088 deadly and non-deadly heart disease events and 1，302 deadly and non-deadly stroke events.It also included 1，897 deadly and non-deadly heart failure events and 113 other deaths from cardiovascular（心血管的）disease.After examining the data,Allen's team found,a link between egg consumption as reported at the start of the study and people's risk of developing heart disease.As their eggconsumption rose,so did their risk.Eggs contain a lot of cholesterol-about 200 milligrams.That is the highest daily amount recommended under current guidelines.Less than one egg a day on average is acceptable from a nutritional standpoint.The study is observational,meaning it can only show there isa link between egg consumption and heart disease.But it cannot prove eggs are the causeof the disease.It may just be that people eating a lot of eggs are also consuming a lot of bacon.8.What were the participants asked about at the start of the study？______A. Their birthplaces.B. Their physical conditions.C. Their diets.D. Their ages.9.What are the statistics in paragraph 3 about？______A. The number of deaths from heart disease.B. The number of treatments for heart disease.C. The number of different causes of heart disease.D. The number of heart disease cases among the participants.10.What can be inferred from the last paragraph？______A. Eggs are good for everyone.B. Eating eggs with limits is beneficial.C. Eggs are the cause of heart disease.D. Eating eggs has nothing to do with heart disease.11.What is the best title for the text？______A. Eggs Have Great Nutritional ValueB. Eggs Will Disappear from People's DietC. It Is Much Better to Increase Egg ConsumptionD. Diet Containing Eggs May Be Linked to Heart DiseaseDHave you heard there are animals in your head？There are four,in fact：an elephant,a guard dog,an owl and a sooty （a black-feathered bird）.They constantly chat to each other.If one gets a bit over-excited,that is to say,if the guard dog senses a threat and starts barking loudly,then the rest can't communicate with each other,and that's not goodnews.You might start to feel stressed or anxious or sad.What the animals represent in the brain and what those parts of the brain are responsible for are the subjects of a new podcast（播客）teaching primary school-age children about their mental health and how to look after it.The teachers of these lessons are pretty young,too.They're sixth-graders,12 yearsold.They're pupils at Woollahra Public School in Sydney,who have been working with a social company,Grow Your Mind,to create the podcast."I used to hear a lot that the kids need to be more adaptable," says Nicole Molloy,the school's head teacher."We don't say that they need to be able to do math problems；we always teach them how to complete math problems.So why shouldn't we be doing that for mental health？"A selection of older children are "well-being leaders" for the school and meet with Molloyonce a week to talk about students' well-being.That helps to keep both the older andyounger children very interested in the topic.Although there's no data yet to quantify the effect this approach has had,Molloy says there are noticeable differences.Children now use the language and concepts they've learned about their mental health in everyday conversations.Teachers said that the students appear to have done well with the stress of the pandemic,too.Focusing on mental health doesn't harm their studies,either.In fact,Molloy argues itimproves them."Our program proves it," she says.12.What do the animals in the first paragraph refer to？______A. Pupils' imaginary friends.B. Different parts of the brain.C. Popular animals among pupils.D. Heated topics for children's biology classes.13.Who gives lessons in the podcast？______A. The company's manager.B. The school's head teacher.C. Older primary school students.D. Experts from Grow Your Mind.14.What does Molloy expect the podcast to do？______A. Allow kids to practice public speaking.B. Improve kids' performance on math tests.C. Teach kids ways to deal with mental problems.D. Provide kids with a chance to show their talents.15.What does Molloy say about the podcast？______A. It is desirable.B. It is harmful.C. It is unnoticeable.D. It is humorous.二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）Whether you want to impress a new teacher,or just chat with a new acquaintance,knowing how to start a conversation can help you feel more comfortable and confident.(1) .To talk an example,when you go into a room full of strangers,most people there arejust like you in their hopes and fears.So when you approach someone to start aconversation,you're hoping him,because he wants someone to talk to as much as you do.(2) ，you can acknowledge and accept them,which will be to your advantage.No matter what the situation is,you can find something positive to ment on the weather,the food,or the event itself.Saying something as simple as you hope yourconversation partner has a good time also is a good way to get a conversationrolling.People tend to respond better to a positive subject rather than a negativeone.Staying positive also helps put others at ease. (3) .It can be difficult to try to talk to someone when it feels that you have little in common.In these situation,getting the other person to talk about his or her own interests,work,orexpertise can be a useful way. (4) ，so expressing a genuine interest in the things that other people enjoy can be excellent fuel for a great conversation.Learning how to start a conversation is an important skill that can help you build social connections.It can be difficult initially,particularly if you struggle with shyness or socialanxiety. (5) .The more often you start to communicate with others,the stronger yourconversational skills will become.A.If you put the skills into practiceB.Instead of pushing your fears awayC.Everyone feels some level of fear in social situationsD.Eye contact will make your partner feel embarrassedE.Try to think of every interaction as a practice sessionF.People often enjoy talking about things they are passionate aboutG.People will be more interested in continuing a conversation with you16. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G17. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G18. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G19. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G20. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G三、完形填空（本大题共20小题，共30.0分）During the past nine years,much of my spare time has been spent in taking things apart.I(21) fixing almost everything from electronics to vehicles.I(22) discovered my love for taking things apart when I was eight.I was playing with one remote-controlled car when it(23) and broke into pieces,showing its inside(24).I had no idea what they were,but I was(25) by everything inside---the motors and circuit boards that made it(26).So I began to take apart all of my remote-controlled toys to(27) out their principles of movement.As I got older,I understood how those parts(28).Then I realized that if I took something apart,I could use the pieces to make something else.That led to(29) many things,like an elevator for my building and motorized wooden boats,all(30) electric motors and circuitboards.I guessed my(31) for fixing things came from my father.Ever since I could hold a tool,I've followed him around,helping him(32) things.Then he taught me not only how to repair things but how to build them.When it was time for me to (33) to repair cars,I immediately loved it.My first(34) was an oil change.When it was done,I felt (35).Since then,I've been proud of my knowledge of cars.Now,I can fix almost anything on a（n）(36).People always say,"You should choose your(37) not based on money,but on what you love." I'm lucky that I found my favorite occupation at such a(38) age.I know becoming a （n）(39) will give me the opportunity to take my interest in creation new things and(40) it to the world.21.

On their faces was confidence.They knew the exam would be easy. The professor （教授）had said they could bring any books or notes during the test.Right after they came into the classroom, the professor handed out the papers. There were only five questions on it.Three hours passed. Then the professor began to collect the papers. The students no longer looked confident. On their faces was nervous expression. The professor watched the worried faces before him, and then asked, "How many of you have completed all five questions?" No hand was raised. "How many of you have answered four?" Still no hands. "Three? Two?" The students moved restlessly in their seats. "One, then? Certainly somebody has finished one." But the class kept silent. The professor said, "That is exactly what I expected. I just want to make you know clearly that even though you have completed four years of engineering, there are still many things about the subject you don't know. These questions you could not answer are common in everyday practice." Then, smiling, he added, "You will all pass this course, but remember, your education has just begun."The years have obscured the name of this professor, but not the lesson he taught.（1）Why did the students think the exam was easy at first?A. Because it was their last exam in the college.B. Because they knew there were only five questions.C. Because they thought they were clever and talented.D. Because they were allowed to bring any books and notes.（2）What does the underlined word "obscured" mean in the last paragraph?A. 模糊B. 回忆C. 提醒D. 改变（3）What could the students learn from the last exam?A.

So while his father was eating, he always dropped（落下）food on his clothes. Many people in the restaurant watched him in disgust（厌恶地）, but his son kept quiet.After he finished eating, his son quietly took him to the washroom, washing the food and the other dirty things carefully. When they came out, the whole restaurant was watching them in silence. The son paid the waiter for their food and started walking out with his father.At that time, an old man in the restaurant called out to the son and asked him, "Don't you think you have left something behind？""No sir, I haven't," the son replied."Yes, you have! You left a lesson for every son and hope for every father," the old man said.The restaurant went silent. No one said anything.（1）Why did the father always drop food on his clothes?A.

I believe it is a normal thought in today's society to just let life happen to us. I also believe that we sometimes destroy（毁灭） our well-planned thoughts about success because it's easier to just continue as usual rather than "try" with the possible failure in mind.Most people never get moving because they don't know what they want. Without a certain result already set in your mind, it's really difficult to get going, and even if you do, your attention may soon disappear and you give up before long.Why not consider what's really important in your life? Write down what excites you, what would truly make you happy and what problems you have. At the end of the week, take a careful look at the notes you've taken .You'll soon begin to see a clearer picture of what direction you should be going towards.Knowledge is useless without action. You read many books but your life will stay the same if you don't use the knowledge. Knowledge is fantastic but it will not change your life until it is used.I love to read personal development material to keep a positive attitude（积极的态度）towards my life , but I also realize that if I don't set goals to achieve, then I will always be a talk the talk person who is great at giving advice but useless at realizing it .If you have no plans of practicing what you say, then it may be best to keep your mouth closed.Do you want to know who you are? Don't ask, Act! Action will explain you. Whatever excuses we have for not living up to our talent, the fact is that time will always move forward. Bewhatever you want to be and whatever you can be. Always remember the only limits（限制）we have are the ones we create for ourselves. Life is not what we think. It is what we experience when we behave according to the thoughts we have.（1）What will happen if you have the possible failure in your mind?A. You will destroy your well-planned thoughts about success.B. You'll have great pressure and try not to make any mistakes.C. You will try your best and come up with a much better plan.D. You'll put all the opportunities to good use to try your plan.（2）In Paragraph Two, the writer wants to .A. tell us what people need to get successB. show us what people set in their mindC. talk about why people should practiceD. explain why people stop going ahead（3）What does the underlined part "a talk the talk person "mean in the passage?A. A person who is good at giving talks.B. A person who talks big but does nothing.C. A person who is active in talking.D. A person who is an energetic talker.（4）Which of the following is NOT true of the passage?A. Knowledge is fantastic when it's used, or it's useless.B. Knowledge is useless without action.C. Success always stops us from succeeding but ourselves.D. Action will tell you who you are.（5）What is the best title for the passage?A. See a Clear Picture of LifeB. Taking Actions Leads to SuccessC. Set Your Goals to AchieveD. Actions Speak Louder than Words4．阅读理解Langshan Mountain, lying in Xinning County, is about 500 kilometers away from Changsha.

成都市田家炳中学八年级英语下册期末阅读理解汇编

成都市田家炳中学八年级英语下册期末阅读理解汇编一、八年级英语下册阅读理解专项训练1．阅读理解Many animals are in danger of dying out. We can see the number of animal species decreases faster and faster and this trend will continue. From 1980 to 2010, at least I million animal species disappeared. Worse still, more and more wild animals are in great danger. It is not a piece of terrible news; it is a fact, a harsh reality. Unfortunately, we may not see these animals in the near future.Why is the number of animal species declining year by year? Apparently animals have become victims of fashion industry. Animal skin has been used to make fashionable clothes and these clothes are sold at a high price. So some greedy people begin to kill animals in a large quantity. This irresponsible behaviour not only breaks the balance of nature but also endangers the living environment of human beings.As far as I am concerned, something must be done to stop this illegal action. We believe "no buying, no killing". First, we must make concerning laws to protect these animals in danger. Second, we must take some measures to protect animals effectively. Animals are our friends and part of our environment. Third, we should raise people's awareness to protect animals and our environment. In this way, we can build a harmonious society and ensure a sustainable development.（1）From the first paragraph, we Can learn thatA. the number of animal species decreases faster and fasterB. the number of animal species increases faster and fasterC. the number of animal species increases more and moreD. the number of animals increases more and more.（2）When did at least 1 million animal species disappear?A. From 1908 to 2010.B. From 1980 to 2011.C. From 1980 to 2010.D. From 1981 to 2010.（3）Where did animal skin go?A. The museums.B. Home.C. The fashion clothes factories.D. The libraries.（4）Which of the following is NOT true according to Paragraph 3?A. We must make laws to protect these animals in danger.B. We must take some measures to protect animals effectively.C. We should raise people's awareness to protect animals and our environment.D. We should breed wild animals.2．阅读理解Do you read advice columns（建议专栏） in newspapers and magazines? Do you think they are helpful to everyone who reads them? Here are some.Dear Sally,I've got a problem. My good friend Lana in my science class asked me to lend her my exercise book so she could copy my answers. Should I do it, Sally? I don't want to, but I'm afraid that if I don't give it to her she won't be my friend any longer.Carmen Dear Carmen,Of course you can't give her your exercise book. That's cheating, and you could get into big trouble if you do that.Sally Dear Sally,I was at my friend's house for dinner last Saturday. During dinner, I broke a beautiful plate. It was my friend's favorite plate. It was my friend's favorite wedding gift. I wanted to pay for it, but she didn't agree with me. I feel bad about it.Kay Dear Kay,I think you did the right thing.

That's alot of this climate-warming greenhouse gas. But there are ways to cut the climate impact of flying, one of which is to ask planes to surf high-altitude winds every chance they get.It's not something they've been allowed to do. But that may change—and soon.Most jets crossing the Atlantic Ocean follow one of several fixed paths that are widely spaced because radar (雷达) had not been able to track aircraft everywhere above the Atlantic. But a new network of satellites could soon change that.Wells was part of a team inEnglandthat calculated the fastest possible routes for passenger planes. According to them , traveltime a plane takes when flying across theAtlanticvaries with the winds that a plane meets. For instance, eastbound (向东的) flights can get a powerful push. Westbound routes miss that benefit. Faster flights burn less fuel. And less burning gives off fewergreenhouse gases.The airline industry knows it has a high " carbon footprint." But it takes decades and many billions of dollars to design, test and fly new planes. Changing a flight path, in contrast, can cut costs and energy right away.The new study doesn't show how well such wind surfing would work for all planes, in all skies and the world over. Bui it does suggest that making flight routes more flexible could cut both fuel use and CO2in some places.However, if flight times vary depending on the wind, scheduling connecting flights and managing runways and gates would become more complicated. The researchers would have to work out the best flight paths that take such scheduling issues into consideration. They may also want to see if flying at different altitudes gives a wider choice of flexible routes at the times most people want to fly.National Air Traffic Services (NATS) which provides air-traffic control for theUnited Kingdomsaid it would temporarily disband its flight-paths system and work to allow airlines to choose flexible routes that would best limit their fuel use.4. What happens to east bound flights when crossing theAtlantic?A. They consume more fuel.B. They use less time and energy.C. They produce more greenhouse gases.D. They are against a stronger wind.5. What should be done to make adopting flexible flight routes possible?A. Calculating the flight time.B. Finding the best flight paths.C. Adjusting the size of jets.D. Adding more runways and gates.6. Which word can best replace the underlined word "disband” in the last paragraph?A. Stop.B. Copy.C. Handle.D. Restore.7. What can we infer from the text?A. Planes are producing the most carbon dioxide.B. New fuel is benefiting airline industries greatly.C. Carbon footprint is a serious problem in theUK.D. Surfing the winds can make air travel greener.CEver wondered if dogs can learn new words? Yes, say researchers as they have found that talented dogs may have the ability to grasp new words after hearing them only four times.While previous evidence seems to show that most dogs do not learn words, unless eventually very well trained, a few individuals have shown some extraordinary abilities, according to a study published in the journal Scientific Reports.“We wanted to know under which conditions the gifted dogs may learn novel words” said researcher xuekw Claudia Fugazza from theEötvösLorándUniversityinHungary. For the study, the team involved two gifted dogs, Whisky and Vicky Nina. The team exposed the dogs to the new words in two different conditions.In the exclusion-based task, presented with seven known toys and one new toy, the dogs were able to select the new toy when presented with a new name. Researchers say this proves that dogs can choose by exclusion when faced with a new word, they selected the only toy which did not have a known name.However, this was not the way they would learn the name of the toy. In fact, when they were presented with one more equally new name to test their ability to recognize the toy by its name, the dogs got totally confused and failed.The other condition, the social one, where the dogs played with their owners who pronounced the name of the toy while playing with the dog, proved to be the successful way to learn the name of the toy, even after hearing itonly 4 times. “The rapid learning that we observed seems to equal children’s ability to learn many new words at a fast rate around the age of 18 months,” Fugazza says. “But we do not know whether the learning mechanisms(机制) behind this learning are the same for humans and dogs. ”To test whether most dogs would learn words this way, 20 other dogs were tested in the same condition, but none of them showed any evidence of learning the toy names, confirming that the abilityto learn words rapidly in the absence of formal training is very rare and is only present in a few gifted dogs.8. What was the purpose of the study published in Scientific Reports?A. To better train dogs’ ability to learn new words.B. To further confirm previous evidence about dogs.C. To prove extraordinary memory abilities of gifted dogs.D. To explore favorable conditions for gifted dogs’ new-word learning.9. How did the dogs react when exposed to two new names in the first condition?A. Slow to understand.B. Quick to learn.C. At a loss.D. In a panic.10. What was found about dogs’ new-word learning in the social condition?A. Learning through playing applied to most dogs.B. The social condition helped dogs learn new words.CDogs’ new-word learning turned out to be less effective.D. Dogs shared similar learning mechanisms with children.11. Which of the following is the best title for the text?A. Gifted Dogs Can Learn New Words Rapidly.B. Dogs Identify Newly-named Toys by Exclusion.C. Dogs Can Acquire Vocabulary through Tons of Training.D. Gifted Dogs Have Similar Learning Abilities to Humans.DThree years ago, a group of researchers at Cornell University Food and Brand Lab had a guess. They knew that many apples being served to kids as part of the National School Lunch Program were ending up in the trash, almost untouched. But unlike others, they wondered if the reason was more complicated than simply that the kids didn’t want the fruit.They thought the fact that the apples were being whole, rather than sliced (切片的), was doing the fruit no favor. And they wanted to prove this idea.They carried out a study at eight schools and found that fruit consumption (消费) jumped by more than 60 percent when apples were served sliced. They then made a follow-up study at six other schools, which not only showed the same result, but further supported. The whole apple consumption at schools that served sliced apples reduced by about 50 percent than before.Based on these results, it seems that even the simplest forms of inconvenience can influence us. Sliced apples just make more sense for kids. The hardest part is getting kids to start eating fruit, and that’s exactly why sliced apples are the way to go. A child holding a whole apple has to break the skin, eat around the core (果核), and deal with the inconvenience of holding a large fruit. These problems might seem silly or unimportant, but they’re important when you’re missing teeth or have braces (牙箍), as so many kids do.Sometimes what seems like a really small inconvenience actually makes a huge difference.12. What can we learn from Paragraph 1?A. Lots of apples served to kids were wasted.B. Researcher supported the lunch program.C. Apples are not the only acceptable fruit for kids.D. The lunch program was well worth spreading.13. What did researchers want to prove?A. Kid didn’t want the fruits.B. Kids favored the whole apples.C. Kids preferred to the sliced apples.D. Kid’s eating habits influenced fruit consumption.14. According to the study, we can know________.A. 14 schools served sliced fruitsB. kids have problems eating the whole applesC. eating fruits must be healthy for childrenD. few kids are missing teeth or have braces15. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. Form matters more than taste.B. Apples are beneficial to each kid.C. The way fruit is eaten links kids’ growth.D. Inconvenience probably makes a difference.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

American psychologist Abraham Maslow thought self-esteem was a basic human need and included self-esteem in his hierarchy of human needs. He described two different forms of “esteem”: the need for respect from others in the form of recognition, success, and admiration, and the need for self-respect in the form of self-love, self-confidence, and skill. Respect from others was believed to be more fragile and easily lost than inner self-esteem. According to Maslow, without the fulfillment of the self-esteem need, individuals will be driven to seek it and unable to grow and obtain self-realization.Basically, high self-esteem is achieved through a series of real accomplishments, which is good for people. However, the excessive high self-esteem, based more on a sense of entitlement than on any accomplishment, is considered to be less psychologically healthy. And just as self-esteem can be too high, it can also be “under-inflated”. Those having poor self-esteem do have a basis for feeling good about themselves but they may not recognize their accomplishments and actions as meaningful.To appreciate what it would be like to have high self-esteem, one can consider how they may feel about things in their lives that they value. For instance, some people really like cars. They take good care of their cars. They may even decorate the car and then show it off to other people with pride. Similarly, people with high self-esteem love, care for and feel proud of themselves. Take children for example. When they have high self-esteem, they believe they are valuable and important. They enjoy different activities and can handle criticism easily without taking it personally.People need to develop positive self-esteem. This can convince them they deserve happiness. Besides, the development of positive self-esteem increases the capacity to treat other people with respect, thus favoring a variety of interpersonal relationships and avoiding destructive ones.4. What can we infer from Abraham Maslow’s theory about self-esteem?A. Self-esteem ensures us a successful life.B. Self-esteem is essential to self-realization.C. Self-esteem means little to psychological health.D. Others’ respect is more important than self-respect.5. What does the underlined word “under-inflated” in paragraph 2 mean?A. Adequate.B. Insufficient.C. Moderate.D. Lifelong.6. How does the author explain the feelings of having high self-esteem?A. By giving examples.B. By analyzing causes.C. By providing figures.D. By making contrasts.7. Which of the following does the author support?A. Self-esteem ultimately leads to happiness.B. Self-esteem earns you respect from others.C. Positive self-esteem benefits people’s social lives.D. Positive self-esteem helps people out of difficulties.CChildren's average daily time spent watching television or using mobile device increased from 53 minutes at age 12 months to more than 150 minutes at 3 years, according toan analysis by researchers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). By age 8, children were more likely to log the highest amount of screen time if they had been in home-based children or were born to first-time mothers.“Our results indicate that screen habits begin early, ”said Edwina Yeung, an investigator in National Instituteof Child Health and Human Development (NICHD).“This finding suggests that interventions(干涉) to reduce screen time could have a better chance of success if introduced early.”In the research, mothers of 4, 000 children responded to questions on their kids' media habits when they were 12, 18, 24, 30, and 36 months of age.TheAmericanAcademyof Pediatrics recommends avoiding digital media exposure for children under 18 months of age, introducing children 18 to 24 months of age to screen media slowly, and limiting screen time to an hour a day for children from 2 to 5 years of age. In the current study, researchers found that 87% of the children had screen time exceeding (超过) these recommendations. However, while screen time increased throughout toddlerhood, by age 7 and 8, screen time fell to under 1.5 hours per day.

Rutgers engineers have invented a cheap and easy way by transforming headphones into sensors that can be plugged into (插入) smartphones, identify their users monitor their heart rates and perform other services.Their invention, called HeadFi, is based on a small plug-in headphone adapter that turns a regular headphone into a sensing device (装置). Unlike smart headphones, regular headphones lack sensors. HeadFi would allow users to avoid having to buy a new pairof smart headphones with sensors to enjoy sensing features.“HeadFi could turn hundreds of millions of existing, regular headphones worldwide into intelligent ones with a simple upgrade (升级),” said Xiaoran Fan, a HeadFi primary inventor.A Rutgers-led paper on the invention, which results in "earable intelligence", will be formally published in October at MobiCom 2021, the top international conference on mobile computing and mobile and wireless networking. Headphones are among the most popular wearable devices worldwide and they continue to become; more intelligent as new functions appear, such as touch-based gesture control, the paper notes. Such functions usually rely on aiding sensors, such as accelerometers, gyroscopes and microphones that are availableon many smart headphones.HeadFi turns the two drivers already inside all headphones into a versatile (多功能的) sensor, and it works by connecting headphones to a pairing device, such as a smartphone. It doesn't require adding aiding sensors and avoids changes to headphone hardware or the need to customize headphones, both of which may increase their weight and size. By plugging into HeadFi, a converted headphone can perform sensing tasks and play music at the same time.The engineers conducted experiments with 53 volunteers using 54 pairs of headphones with prices ranging from $2. 99 to $15 ,000. HeadFi can achieve 97. 2 percent to 99. 5 percent accuracy on user identification, 96.8 percent to 99. 2 percent on heart rate monitoring and 97. 7 percent to 99. 3 percent on gesture recognition.12.

The figures are listed in the last paragraph mainly to show_________.A. the various functions of HeadFiB. the wide popularity of headphonesC. the great complexity of headphonesD. the excellent performance of HeadFi15. What can be the best title for the text?A. How to Use Headphones AppropriatelyB. Headphones Can Be Upgraded InstantlyC. How to Make Regular Headphones IntelligentD.
