age of four,when she won a prize for showing a pig from her family's farm to the local 4H Club.Most kids would be thrilled to spend that money on toys,but not Lindsay."I didn't get the money; it went to the bank,"she told the Columbus Dispatch. Over the years,Lindsay kept on raising and showing pigs,and kept on winning prizes . Some were ﹩ 100 for small wins , but she won thousands of dollars for championship prizes at county fairs.Before long,she earned an impressive amount of cash﹣but,aside from a purse when she was 14,Lindsay had never spent a dollar of her savings.By the time she was 18,she had got more than﹩40,000, which she planned to put towards her college education at nearby Ohio University. But her parents said that if she continued living at home while attending school,they wouldn't have to pay for her dorm housing, and would be willing to cover the entire cost of her education.It sounded like a good deal to Lindsay.But what should she do with her savings? Her father had an idea:buy a house,just as he'd done when he was young.He used the house's sale to help him buy the family farm where Lindsay had grown up and raised all those lucrative (赚大钱的)

ABig Space Events To Put In Your Calendar For2022MAY—CHINA*SPACE STATION GETS BIGGERMay will see the launch of a new module for the Tiangong space station,China's"Palace in the sky”.Its first core module,Tianhe was launched last April.The next module will be Wentian,a laboratory expected to launch between May and June.It will also serve as a backup core module and the place where future spacewalks from the taikonauts will take place.It will be followed by a second laboratory module,Mengtian,in August-September. JUNE—INDIA'S SPACECRAFT TAKES ITS FIRST FLIGHTISRO,the Indian Space Research Organization,has announced that Gaganyaan(which translates to Sky Craft)will have is first unscrewed fight in June.The craft is panned to be a key vehicle in the Indian Human Spaceflight Program and,all going well in this test;it will be followed by a crewed test next year.JULY—RUSSIA EYES THE MOONAGAINRussia's Luna program had many successes with landers,rovers,and even sample returns,and Luna25is expected to follow in that tradition according to Russian Space Agency,Roscomos.The mission this fine is just a lander expected to touch down near the Lunar South Pole with instruments designed to study the soil.The location might be a possible area of interest for a permanent base on the Moon.AUGUST—MORE LUNAR MISSIONSAugust will see the launch of the Korea Pathfinder Lunar Orbiter,a panned lunar orbiter by the Korea Aerospace Research Institute(KARI).This will be the first Korean Lunar Mission,a technology demonstration for KARI.21.Which country will carry out multiple space tasks this year?A.China.B.India.C.Russia.D.Korea22.What do we know about Luna25?A.It will operate in low lunar orbit.B.It will take a land on the Moon.C.It will serve as a permanent base.D.It will take its first crewed flight.23.When is the first Korean Lunar Mission scheduled?A.In May.B.In June.C.In July.D.In AugustBA recent story in the Wall Street Journal newspaper looked at students who went to celebrated universities such asColumbia and New York University,for advanced degrees in subjects like art,film and even social work.Many of the students said they learned a lot.However,when they graduated,they were deep in debt and did not think they would find work that would let them pay back their loans.Students said they spoke with Columbia about the high cost of advanced arts degrees but never received a reasonable cation experts say the school is very wealthy,with large funds.The University,however, prefers to ask the students to pay the full cost.Kevin Carey is a higher education expert for New America,a public policy research center.He called master's degrees"a scam“in a conversation."Charging people a ton of money to go into any artistic career is often super problematic,he said.Castillo is an actor in New York City.He earned an MFA from The Actors Studio in New York City.Was his MFA worth the cost?"I do think it was worth it.I don't put a price tag on my education or my experience.I think it's sort of unfortunate that so many people take education for granted.Castillo said students who are thinking about an advanced degree in art should be sure they are doing it because they value the education,not because they want money or to be famous.Plazinska is a filmmaker in New York City.She attended graduate school both at Baylor University in Texas and at the University of Lowa.Arts graduate programs can help students meet and make friends with fellow artists with whom they can work throughout their careers.For school to be of value,students need to remember why they started making art in the beginning."It's just for the pure pleasure of creating and fulfilling myself this way.”24.What's the problem for students in famous universities for art advanced degrees?A.They can't take loans.B.They can't find any work.C.They may be heavily in debt.D.They may drop out of university.25.What does the underlined word"scam"in paragraph3mean?A.Way.B.Trick.C.Skill.D.Game.26.What does Castillo think of his MFA?A.He thinks highly of it.B.It's a waste of money.C.He takes it for granted.D.It brings him fame and money.27.What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?A.Arts graduate programs ensure a promising future.B.Students had better consider whether they can afford the fee.C.Arts graduate programs introduce celebrity artists to their students.D.Students should stick to their original purposes while learning.COxygen,I'm sure you'd agree,is pretty important for life on Earth.We breathe it in,our cells survive on it and without it,we hardly live.Basically,all multicellular life on Earth evolved over millions of years to make use of oxygen.But take a deep breath,because we need to talk about Henneguya salminicola,a tiny parasite(寄生虫)containing fewer than100cells that lives within the muscle tissue of salmon,a large fish with silver skin and pink flesh. The strange-looking parasite does not busy itself with such small matters as breathing oxygen.Nope,it seems that H.salminicola is the first multicellular animal we've found that survives without the stuff.“Aerobic respiration(有氧口乎吸)was thought to be commonly found in animals,but now we confirmed that this is not the case,“said Dorothee Huchon,a zoologist at Tel Aviv University in Israel,in a press release.Huchon and a team of international researchers examined and sequenced(排序)all of.salmincola’s genes in their study,published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.They found that the parasite,which is closely related to jellyfish,lacks the DNA machinery necessary to“breathe'Mt doesn't'have mitochondria(线粒体),often called the"powerhouse"of the cell,because they use oxygen to make energy.It's like a little factory inside almost all cells,and DNA detectives can find mitochondrial genes during sequencing.The discovery came as something of an accident for the team,who were examining the genome(the complete set of genes)of the species.When they went searching for the mitochondrial genes,they came up empty-handed."Our discovery shows that evolution can go in strange directions,Huchon said."Aerobic respiration is a major source of energy,and yet we found an animal that gave up this important pathway.”Some single-celled life forms have evolved the ability to survive without oxygen and do not have mitochondria, either.Plenty of bacteria can exist without oxygen at all.Instead of oxygen,they get their energy from fernentation(发酵)or use other molecules like iron.But how H.salminicola produces energy is still unclear.Huchon suggests it could draw oxygen from the cells in salmon or it could have evolved similar methods to those of single-celled organisms which scientists have documented in the past.28.What can we learn about Henneguya salminicola?A.It is an animal consisting of a cell.B.It can still survive without oxygen.C.It takes on a normal appearance.D.It has a longer life span than salmon.29.What is the main function of mitochondria?A.To make cells breathe fast.B.To help to produce oxygen.C.To provide energy for cells.D.To help cells absorb oxygen.30.How did Huchon probably feel about the discovery?A.Interested.B.Satisfied.C.Astonished.D.Frightened.31.What could be the most suitable title for the text?A.The natural evolution of animal cellsB.Different kinds of life forms on earthC.A research on single-celled organismsD.A creature that doesn't breathe oxygenDIn these days of information overload,it's never been more important to keep track of and back up your data.The problem is that digital storage doesn't last forever.Hard disks fail,phones tumble out of our pockets,and tablets are beaten up by grandchildren.This is why it is important to think carefully about your back-up strategy.Online back-ups are easier,arguably.All of the big tech players have online storage you can treat like your ownhard disk.Google has Google Drive,Apple has iCloud,and Microsoft has OneDrive.All you have to do is download the app for service you want to use to your computer or phone.Most Cloud storage apps even have the option to automatically upload your camera roll,so when you take new photos they511be sent up to the Cloud as soon as you connect to wifi.Offline storage is slightly trickier.Looking after Cloud files is Google5s or Microsoft's problem.But offline, figuring out what equipment to buy is something you need to figure out for yourself.The most obvious option is to buy a portable USB hard drive.Just plug it into your computer and you can copy important files to it.This is definitely a better approach than doing absolutely nothing,but there5s still a problem:if your back-up drive fails,you still lose everything.This is why if you5re serious about backing up-and you should be-I recommend the slightly pricier option of getting a device known as a NAS,which stands for""Network Attached Storage“and is basically a mini computer that you can plug directly into your wifi router.Some companies have devices available that contain only one hard drive, but I recommend buying one with space for at least two.This is because on most NAS models,two hard disks can work together to keep your files safe.Instead of appearing as separate hard disks,they can be combined using a feature called"RAID”,standing for"Redundant Array of Independent Disks”and it basically tells your NAS to treat the two hard disks inside it as though they were one drive,with the contents mirrored on both drives automatically.It means that if one of the two drives goes kaput,you still have a perfectly functioning mirror copy with all your files safely stored on it.The only thing considered undesirable is that a decent NAS tends to start at around£300,and that excludes the price of the hard disks themselves.But before you scream in horror,remember-this is for your most important files, to keep them safe.So,as annoying as it might sound,this is important.Just as you wouldn't leave your home with a risky boiler or drive a car with faulty brakes.It5s time to do the boring but important thing and spend the money to get your data backed up-before it is too late.32.Why are online back-ups easier?A.Because all of the big tech companies offer online storage free of charge.B.Because you just need to download the Cloud storage app for service you want.C.Because it is the service providers that are to blame if your Cloud files get lost.D.Because the data of your digital device is uploaded to the Cloud automatically.33.What can we learn about NAS?A.It's a device that you can plug into your computer.B.RAID is used to separate two hard disks inside NAS.C.It tends to be very costly even without hard disks.D.Most of them contain only one hard drive within.34.What does the underlined word"kaput”in the fourth paragraph probably mean?A.Tom.B.Broken.C.Lost.D.Shut.35.What's the main idea of the passage?A.Strategies for backing up data.B.Solutions to information overload.C.Problems concerning digital storage.D.Reasons for keeping track of your data.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5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。

potential loneliness.No wonder co﹣working spaces are becoming so popular:they permit self﹣employed individuals to feel like they are part of all office environment,while making them getsome work done too.But renting a co﹣working space does cost money.Now a Swedish project is aiming to change that by turning people's under﹣used homes into temporary co﹣working spaces,available to freelancers for free.Hoffice was started by freelancers Christofer Gradin Franzen and Johline Zandra about a year ago in Stockholm when they invited a few people into their home office to work together.It was a great success,and the project has since spread to a number of cities in Europe,North and South America,Australia,India and Japan.Anyone can sign up and offer their home space as a free co ﹣working space,or go find a Hoffice near them.On a Hoffice day,everyone arrives and starts work at a certain hour.After 45minutes,everyone gets up to take a break,stretch,do qigong or yoga for 10to 15minutes.Afterwards,people cangather around again,and re﹣state their intentions and goals for the rest of the work day,as a way to motivate each other.Meals can be eaten together at a certain hour,potluck﹣style(家常饭)or by bringing your own lunch.This process creates an encouraging and supportive work environment.As some freelancers describe,"By working at Hoffice,we give ourselves and each other the gift to spend our days in a social working environment,where we are extremely productive withoutignoring our other human needs.We also make sure to give us and each other what we need to feel calm,happy,inspired and creative during the working day."So Hoffice is not just about sharing space;it's also about a free exchange of ideas.And perhaps the best thing is that Hoffices are free to use.39.What does the underlined word"downsides"in Paragraph 1 probably mean?A.mistakes B.drawbacks C.difficulties D.burdens40.What's the main idea of Paragraph 3?A.How people respond to HofficeB.How a Hoffice day works.C.What people share at HofficeD.What Hoffice means to people41.What do we know about Hoffice according to the text?A.It is becoming increasingly popular.B.It has been around for quite a few years.C.It has created many new job opportunities.D.It is suitable for people from all walks of life.28.(8分)The first day of school our professor introduced himself andchallenged us to get to know someone we didn't know.I stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder.I turned around to find a wrinkled,little old lady beaming up at me with a smile that lit up her entire being.She said,"Hi,girl!My name is Rose.I'm 87years old.Can I give you a hug?"I laughed and enthusiastically responded,"Of course you may!"and she gave me a giant squeeze."Why are you in college at such a young,innocent age?"I asked.She jokingly replied,"I'm here to meet a rich husband,get married,have a couple of children,and then retire and travel!""No seriously."I said.I was curious about what may have motivated her to be taking on this challenge at her age."I always dreamed of having a college education and now I'm getting one!"she told me.Over the course of the year,Rose became a campus icon(偶像)and she easily made friends wherever she went.She loved to dress up and she reveled in the attention bestowed upon her from the other students.She was living it up.At the end of the semester we invited Rose to speak at our football banquet.I'll never forget what she taught us."We do not stop playing because e are old;we grow old because westop playing.There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up.Anybody can grow older.That doesn't take any talent or ability.The idea is to grow up by always finding opportunities in change.Have no regrets.The elderly usually don't have regrets for what we did,but rather for things we did not do.The only people who fear death are those with regrets."She concluded her speech by courageously singing"The Song of Rose."She challenged each of us study the lyrics(歌词)and live them out in our daily lives.At the year's end,Rose finished the college degree she had begun all those years ago.One week after graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep.42.Rose made herself known to the author in a manner.A.serious B.cold C.crazy D.humorous 43.From the information provided in the passage,we know .A.Rose finished the college degree within a yearB.Rose did realize her dream of meeting a rich husband and getting married through college educationC.Rose enjoyed her campus life very muchD.Rose grew so old that she stopped playing44.According to her speech,.A.whenever you have a dream,you succeedB.All people don't grow up while growing olderC.Rose usually regretted having done somethingD.a nine﹣year﹣old

from…to在…范围内变动;B项表示"任命;委派";C项表示"延伸;扩大";D项表示"消耗";根据句意和搭配,故答案选A.12.【分析】我们正要出发的时候,突然下起了雨.【解答】B考查时间状语从句."be about to do sth.when…""正要做某事,这时…".故选B.13.【分析】由于斯里兰卡的严重水灾,这座著名的旅游城市中三分之二的建筑物需要修理.【解答】答案是A.本题考查动名词做宾语.动词need后面既可以接动词不定式做宾语,也可以接动名词做宾语;但是接动名词时是主动形式表达被动的意思,即need doing=need to be done.本题中"建筑物需要被修理",B和D没有被动的含义,排除;"分数+名词"做主语时谓语动词与名词的单复数一致,题干中是复数buildings,所以谓语动词用复数,答案是A.14.【分析】﹣我想和你一起去挪威.﹣如果是这样,你的假期安排必须符合我的.【解答】D考查动词短语.选项A和选项B都是"追赶,赶上"的意思,故排除A和B选项.C项的意思是"容忍,忍受".D项是"适应,符合,与…一致".故选D.15.【分析】因为在这个村里被养大.Mr.Chen提供了五万元修建小学的教学楼.【解答】A 考查非谓语.分析句子可知Mr Chen与bring up 之间是被动关系,所以用过去分词在句中作状语,offer to do是固定搭配"主动做某事".having bought是主动结构,故答案选A.16.【分析】他十分渴望知道考试的结果,他甚至为此日不能食夜不能寐.【解答】答案:C解析:A:领导;怂恿;B:沉迷于(后接名词或动词﹣ing);C:迫切做某事;D:习惯于(后接名词或动词﹣ing).根据句意"他十分渴望知道考试的结果,他甚至为此日不能食夜不能寐"及所给选项分析可知本题答案为C选项,其余选项均不符合句意.拓展:be dying to do sth意为"迫切做某事;渴望做某事".17.【分析】句意:学生应该参加社区活动,他们能从活动中获取成长经验.【解答】答案D本题采用排除法.因为本句是一个定语从句,先行词是community activities,在从句中作地点状语,A、C项是代词,不作状语,故排除;又由于when只能作时间状语,又排除,故答案为D.18.【分析】考查考查形容词短语,句意:大多数父母都没有很好地意识到他们的婴儿吃果冻的危险,这导致了最不幸的事件发生.【解答】答案C,根据固定搭配"be aware of意识到",排除了A选项,D选项后跟从句,不跟名词,修饰aware用well,不用very.所以选C.19.【分析】﹣﹣瞧,那个心不在焉的学生把书拿颠倒了.﹣﹣他太粗心了.【解答】答案:D 考查介词短语.A项:上上下下;B项:从一端到另一端;C项:肩并肩地,一起;D项:颠倒(的),倒转(的).根据句意,D项正确.20.【分析】孩子们在饭桌旁说话太吵闹了,我努力使得自己被听到.【解答】答案是D.本题考查动词不定式;题干中考查短语struggle to do

BADBD 56﹣60 ABDAC 61﹣65 DACBC 66﹣70 DCACB51.B 逻辑推理题.上一句提到,"我"和朋友们为了庆祝考试结束,进了一家快餐店,所以此处表示"我们"点(ordered)了汉堡和可口可乐.make 意为"制造,使…成为",arrange 意为"安排",demand 意为"要求",均不符合文意.故正确答案为B.52.A

ATechnology never stops moving. These inventions will be here sooner than you think, so it’s best to get your wallet ready for them.5G networks will bring the Internet everywhereThe most exciting thing about 5G is that it will be a full-on broadband internet service meaning that instead of,having one service for your mobile devices and one for home internet, you’ll be able to get home 5G and take it with you, as well. That also means less reliance(依赖)on wi-fi.Smart needles will detect cancer in momentsRight now, most cancers aren’t detected until something goes wrong, which is what the smart needle hopes to change. Cancerous tissue and healthy tissue reflect light differently, according to Medical Xpress. The way the smart needle works is by shining light through the tissue in question and then quickly calculating if the tissue is sick or healthy. It takes seconds, and without painful operations.People will be able to feel things in virtual realityVirtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) attracted a lot of attention in the last decade, but things will only get more interesting from here, starting with the ability to touch and feel the things we see through all the various kinds of computer-generated pictures.Plant-based meat is going to grow in new ways2019 was the year of plant-based meats, with Beyond Meat introducing burgers that tasted just about the same as actual beef, but made entirely out of plants.

Skyline Dear Skyline,As we grow up, our interests change a lot. As a teenager, it may just be that your mom and you don’t share the same interests right now. It’s normal for the relationship between teenagers and their parents to become distant for a short while.If you don’t think your mom understands you or your interests, why not try to get involved in some of hers? If she has a hobby, try to join in with it. For example, if she’s a good cook, ask her to teach you some recipes. If she likes running, go for a run with her.Likewise(同样地), try to get her involved in the things that you do often. Invite her to go to the movies or to coffee together, or ask her to help you study some time.Another great way to get to know your mom better is to ask her about her childhood. My mother has lots of great tales about being a teenager in the 1960s, and hearing her share them and laughing at her funny memories always brings us closer together. Ask your mom about her life as a teenager too I bet she’d love to share her stories There could be many reasons that your mom might seem too busy to do things with you. She could just be tiredfrom a long day of work, or she may have a problem of her own that’s affecting how she acts toward others.Whatever happens, don’t worry. She loves you and always will. And hopefully one day soon, you will both understand each other perfectly.4. What is Skyline’s problem?A. She doesn’t live close to her mom.B. She doesn’t share things with her mom.C.

Skyline’s mom probably isn’t a good mother..C Skyline is badly treated by her mom at home.D. Skyline probably doesn’t understand her mom.CFor decades, China had wanted a Nobel Prize in science. Tu Youyou, a researcher who helped to develop a malaria(疟疾)medicine, finally won the country that honor.In fact, Tu is not the only scientist in China who is catching the world’s attention. In 2016, the Nature journal published a list of the top 10 science stars in China. Gao Caixia and Cui Weicheng are two of them.Gao Caixia has been devoted to genetic engineering for her whole career. She is known for using CRISPR-Cas9, the revolutionary gene-editing technique that is sweeping through biology labs around the world – in crops.At first, Gao was unwilling to take up gene editing using CRISPR-Cas9 because her lab at the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology in Beijing had already created mutations(变异)in 82 genes using an older type of technology. But after thinking carefully about it, she decided to give it a try.After a year of hard work, her lab finally succeeded. Gao worked on genetic engineering in wheat, a crop that is famous for being difficult to work with. Now she is considered one of the best in the world at engineering wheat.Cui Weicheng is the developer of China’s record-setting Jiaolong submersibl(e 潜水器). He is now a professor at Westlake University. In 2012, Cui rode inside China’s Jiaolong submersible and reached a depth of more than 7,000 meters in the Pacific.Thanks to Jiaolong and the 57-year-old developer, China is now one of only a few nations that can explore the deep sea. Jiaolong can travel deeper than any other manned research submersible currently in use, which shows China’s increasing ambition and leadership in deep-sea research.8. Why is Tu Youyou mentioned at the beginning of the passage?A. To show one of China’s long-held dreams.B. To stress the importance of the Nobel Prize.C. To praise Tu Youyou for her contributions.D. To introduce more top Chinese scientists.9. Why did Gao Caixia work on wheat?A. Because she failed in her attempt to study other crops..B Because she was expert at wheat engineering.C. Because wheat is hard to be genetically engineered.D. Because wheat is the most widely planted crop in China.10. What is Cui Weicheng’s biggest contribution to China?A. He teaches about sea at a university.B. He developed Jiaolong submersible.C. He is devoted to genetic engineering.D. He reached the bottom of the ocean.11. What is the best title for the passage?A. China’s Science StarsB. China’s Nobel Prize DreamC. Gao Caixia-China’s Crop EngineerD. Cui Weicheng-China’s Deep DiverDPeople do better when more is expected of them. In education circles, this is called the Pygmalion Effect.The Pygmalion effect got its name from the story of Pygmalion, a mythica(虚构的)Greek sculptor.Pygmalion carved a statue of a woman and then fell in love with it. He appealed to Aphrodite, the goddess of love, who brought the statue to life and helped the couple get married. Just as Pygmalion’s fixation on the statue brought it to life, our focus on a student can do the same in schools. Research by Robert Rosenthal and Lenore Jacobson examined the influence of teachers’ expectations on students’ performance. They began by testing the IQ of elementary school students. Teachers were told that the IQ test showed around one-fifth of their students to be unusually intelligent. But unknown to the teachers, the “gifted” students were chosen at random. Actually they had no big statistical advantage over the other kids. As the study period ended, all students had their IQs retested. Both groups showed an improvement. Yet those who were described as intelligent experienced much greater gains in their IQ points. Rosenthal and Jacobson owed this result to the Pygmalion effect. Teachers paid more attention to “gifted” students, offering more support and encouragement than they would otherwise.In general, teachers have the power to influence how the students behave by holding high expectations. If a teacher thinks a student is brilliant, they will treat them as such. The student then gets more opportunities to develop their ability, and their performance improves. This works both ways. When a student expects a teacher to be excellent or successful, they tend to be attentive and supportive. In the process, they improve their performance, too. Students who act interested in lectures create interesting lecturers.12. Where did the Pygmalion effect get its name from?A. A statue of a lady.B. The goddess of love.C. A character in a literary work.D. The story made up by Pygmalion.13. The underlined expression “fixation on” in Paragraph 2 most probably meansA. worship ofB. affection forC. marriage toD. sympathy for14. What is the purpose of Rosenthal and Jacobson’s research?A. To improve the kids’ IQ.B. To pick out gifted students.C. To expand teachers’ influence.D. To examine the Pygmalion effect.15. What can students do to make a teacher excellent?A. Support the teacher by treating them as excellent.B. Attend interesting lectures given by the teacher.C. Work hard to get prepared for opportunities.D. Show great interest in lectures on acting.第二节根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AKeeping a pet cat puts owners at a greater risk of going blind,but a dog appears to protecteyesight,a new study suggests.Scientists have discovered that dogs and cats carry antigens(杭原)which can cause differentimmune responses(免疫反应)in humans. While the allergen(过敏原)which dogs carry reducesthe chance of developing glaucoma(青光眼)一the second leading cause of blindness in theUK--- owning a cat nearly doubles the risk of getting the eye disease.Many pet owners suffer allergic reactions to their pets but still choose to keep them. However,the new study suggests that even a small immune response could lead to blindness. The study by theUniversity of California,Los Angeles,found that cat owners who reacted to their pet allergen had a90 percent increased risk of glaucoma compared with non-pet owners. But dog owners were 20 per-cent less likely to get the disease.Keeping a dog also has the added benefit that owners are outside more which helps to protectagainst short-sightedness."Not only is a dog man’s best friend,he may also save your sight,”said British laser eyesurgeon Dr David Allamby. "Cats could cause our immune system to react in a way that leads eyesto the development of glaucoma. Exposure(接触)to dogs appears to be linked to the opposite ef-feet and could be protective against the disease."The researchers believe that dogs are healthier for humans because they spend more time out-doors"The protective effect of dogs could be due to their natural antigens in their dead skin,butmight also be because they spend more time outdoors and are happy to get dirty,whereas cats arecleaner animals." said Dr Anne Coleman,of University of California,Los Angeles.21.The purpose of the text is toA. make pet dogs popular.B. advise people to abandon their cats.C. share a new study result.D. call on pet owners to spend more time outside with their pets22.

Butwhat really needs to be done to fix this annual problem, says The New York Times’Frank Bruni,is to give the teaching profession a reboot. Teaching has become one of the least popular profes-sions. When the economy improves,people turn their attentionelsewhere,to professions thatpromise more money,more independence,or more respect.With starting salaries for teachers hardly reaching ¥30,000 per year,any student graduationfrom college with student debts is going to turn to professions that can promise more money. The av-erage teacher is struggling to provide for families and keep up with financial plans.As for independence,the political battles over education,along with the lasting discussion onwhat's the best education, have left many teachers feeling like punching bags(攻击目标).Policy-makers don't know what's actually occurring inside the classroom,and make legislation(法规)without considering teachers’opinions.
