It helps burn calories and build muscle mass.7.Increased Self-Esteem: Regular exercise can boost self-confidence and self-esteem, which are important for personal development.8.Reduction in Chronic Diseases: Engaging in regular physical activity can reduce the risk of developing chronic diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, and certain cancers.Now, read the passage and answer the following questions:1、What is the main idea of the first paragraph?A.

Every summer,we would spend hours working in the garden, watering plants, picking ripe fruits, and harvesting vegetables. It was a time filled with laughter and joy.One day, my father decided to build a greenhouse in the garden. He believed that having a greenhouse would allow us to grow more plants throughout the year. With the help of my mother and me, he started to build it. It took us several days, but finally, the greenhouse was ready.The greenhouse was a great success. We were able to grow plants even in winter. It was amazing to see the flowers blooming and the vegetables growing in the cold season. However, we soon realized that the greenhouse needed constant care. The plants had to be watered regularly, and we had to clean the greenhouse to prevent pests and diseases.One day, I noticed that some of the plants in the greenhouse were not doing well. They were wilting and losing their leaves. I was worried and asked my father what was wrong. He checked the plants and explained that they were suffering from a lack of sunlight. The thick glass of the greenhouse blocked most of the sunlight from reaching the plants.To solve the problem, my father built a small window on the side of the greenhouse. The window allowed sunlight to enter the greenhouse, and the plants started to thrive again. From that day on, we made sure to keep the window open during the day to provide the plants with enough light.The greenhouse not only extended our growing season, but it also brought us closer as a family. We learned the importance of teamwork and hard work. Itwas a wonderful experience that I will always remember.Complete the following passage by choosing the most appropriate word or phrase from the options given below.I was worried and asked my father what was wrong. He checked the plants and (A) explained that they were suffering from a lack of sunlight.

"The fight against cyberbullying is like a war, and in this war I am a fearless fighter," Sadat Rahman said during a ceremony on November 13 in The Hague, the Netherlands. He added, "If everybody keeps supporting me, then together we will win this battle against cyberbullying."Rahman developed a mobile phone application that provides education about online bullying and a way to report cases of it. He said he began his work on the project after hearing the story of a 15-year-old girl who took her own life as a result of cyberbullying. "I will not stop until we receive no more cases through the app," Rahman said at the ceremony.The award comes with a fund of over $118,000, which is invested by the Kids Rights Foundation. The group chooses projects to support causes that are closely linked to the winner's work.Past well-known winners of the prize include Pakistani human rights activist Malala Yousafzai and Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg.

The Red Delicious apple is likely to lose its title as the most popular apple this year, which it held for more than half a century. The U.S. Apple Association is projecting, that the Gala apple will usurp（夺取）the Red Delicious for the top spot.The group, which advocates on behalf of 7,500 apple growers and 400 companies in the apple business, predicted that the U. S. would grow 52.4 million Gala apples in 2018, up 5.9 percent from a year earlier. Red Delicious apple production is expected to fall 10.7 percent to 51.7 million.Consumers apparently like the Gala's "taste, texture（口感）and sweetness," the U.S. Apple Association said in a statement. "The rise in production of newer varieties of apples aimed at the fresh consumption domestic market has caused demand for the Red Delicious to decline." said Mark Seetin, the association's director of regulatory and industry affairs.The Granny Smith, Fuji and Honeycrisp apples are expected to rank third, fourth and fifth. The association predicted that within a year or two the Honeycrisp may pass the Granny Smith and Fuji, jumping into third place. The production of the apple rose 21.8 percent to 23.5 million this year. That puts it ahead of the Golden Delicious apple for the first time. The Honeycrisp was created by the University of Minnesota's apple breeding（培育）program only 21 years ago. It typically costs more than its competitors.Until the 1970s, Americans had only a few choices of apples. While the Golden Delicious offered a color contrast and the Granny Smith brought tartness（酸味）to the table, the Red Delicious was the star, heavily promoted by Washington state growers. Then wholesalers began looking for tastier varieties, finding them overseas in Japan, home to the Fuji, and New Zealand, which had the Braeburn and Gala.（1）How does the author prove Americans' preference for the Gala?A.By using statistics.B.By listing examples.C.By explaining causes.D.By presenting research findings.（2）What do we know about the Honeycrisp?A.It is sour in flavor.B.It is light in color.C.It is gaining popularity.D.It is losing its price advantage.（3）Which of the following comes from New Zealand?A.The Fuji.B.The Honeycrisp.C.The Braeburn.D.The Granny Smith.（4）What does the text mainly tell us?A.Why Americans eat apples from different countries.B.How different apples are becoming popular in America.C.How American farmers choose their apple growing types.D.Why the Red Delicious was Americans' favorite for 50 years.causal inferences rather than simply finding patterns. "At some point—you know, if you're intelligent—you realize maybe there's something else out there," he says.【长难句分析】1.

Why are yo u 37 at home?”Then I noticed his 38 and realized he was telling me the truth. My father has always been a hard worker and prided himself on his career. 39 our family has been his joy, and I guess I have 40 his work for granted.My f ather’s unemployment 41 many changes in our lives. For starters, he was at home all the time, which meant my bed had to be 42 , my room cleaned up, and my 43 done right after school. I would come home every day to find him at the computer 44 jobs. I began to notice how 45 he seemed, and how losing his job affected his self-esteem(自尊心), though he tried to be 46 . For the first time, I 47 my dad as vulnerable (易受伤的). He asked my brother and me to 48 less. I gave up my pocket money, 49 it wasn’t much. I felt I was doing the right. I also found a part-time job.After several difficult months of searching, my dad 50 to go in a totally different direction. He 51 that he never wanted to be laid off again, so he was going to start his own business. Day by day, I watched him 52 it, and I admired how much time and 53 he expended.

But money is not all powerful. Money can't buy many things such as time and true love. There are 24 hours in a day. Sometimes when we are very happy, we wish that the period of happiness would last longer. But no matter what we do, or how much money we are willing to pay, we cannot make a day last longer than 24 hours. On the other hand, when we are unhappy, money cannot make the unhappy time pass away more quickly.True love is another thing which money cannot buy. Suppose we have someone who really loves us very much. Once he dies, he can give us no more love. Can our money raise him from death and make him love us as before? Here we can see very clearly that money cannot buy us love. Money can buy us diamond things, beautiful clothes, but never time and love. So money, after all, is not all powerful.36. According to the passage, it is quite impossible for you to buy ______.A. true friendshipB. real diamondC. a large houseD. an expensive car37. Which of the sentences expresses the main idea of this passage?A. Money cannot buy time and love.B. Money is not powerful at all.C. Money can buy people material things.D. Money doesn't mean everything.38.Through the passage the writer wants to tell people not to ______.A. make moneyB. waste moneyC. save moneyD. worship(崇拜) money39. From the passage we can see that in our life, besides something material, we need something ______.A. spiritualB. beautifulC. lovelyD. usefulBSure, it’s good to get along with your teacher becaus e it makes the time you spend in the classroom more pleasant.And yes, it’s good to get along with your teacher because, in general, it’s smart to learn how to understand the different types of people you’ll meet throughout your life.“But really, there’s one super-important reason why you should get along with your teacher. When you do, learning bursts right open,” says Evelyn Vuko, a longtime teacher who writes an education column(专栏) called “Teacher Says” for the Washington Post newspaper.In fact, kids who get along with their teachers not only learn more, but they’re more comfortable asking questions and getting extra help. This makes it easier to understand new material and do your best on tests. When you have this kind of relationship with a teacher, he or she can be someone to turn to with problems, such as problems with learning or school life, such as bullying.As a kid in a primary or middle school, you’re at a wonderful stage in your life. You’re like a sponge (海绵), able to absorb lots of new and exciting information. On top of that, you’re able to think about all this information in new ways. Your teacher knows that, in most cases, is very excited to be the person who’s giving you all that material and helping you make it. Remember, teachers are people, too, and they feel great if you’re open to what they’re teaching you. That’s why they wanted to be teachers in the first place—to teach!Some kids may be able to learn in any situation, whether they like the teacher or not. But most kids are sensiti ve to the way they get along with the teacher, and if things aren’t going well, they won’t learn as well and won’t enjoy being in class.40．In the passage, the author mainly talks about _______.A. how to get along well with othersB. the importance of a good relation with teachersC. how much the students are expected of to get along with teachersD. how to make the time in the classroom more pleasant41．“Learning bursts right open” in the third paragraph really means _______.A. learning becomes easier for you at onceB. you find an opening to learningC. there’ll be more problems with learningD. there’ll be no problems at all with learning 42．According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. If you get on well with your teachers, you must have a good result in exams.B. The more questions you ask, the higher marks you will get.C. If you have a good relationship with your teacher, you can turn to him when in trouble.D. Many kids can do well without a good relationship with teachers.CCan trees talk? Yes, but not in words. Scientists have reasons to believe that trees do communicate with each other. Not long ago, researchers learned some surprising things. First a willow tree（柳树）attacked in the woods by caterpillars (毛虫) changed the chemistry of its leaves and made them taste so terrible that they got tired of the leaves and stopped eating them. Then even more astonishing, the tree sent out a special smell---a signal causing its neighbors to change the chemistry of their own leaves and make them less tasty.Communication, of course, doesn’t need to be in words. We can talk to each other by smiling, raising our shoulders and moving our hands. We know that birds and animals use a whole vocabulary of songs, sounds, and movements. Bees dance their signals, flying in certain patterns that tell other bees where to find nectar(花蜜) for honey. So why shouldn’t trees have ways of sending messages?43. It can be concluded from the passage that caterpillars do not feed on leaves that ______.A. are lying on the groundB. have an unpleasant tasteC. bees don’t likeD. have an unfamiliar shape44. The willow tree described in the passage protected itself by ______.A. growing more branchesB. communicating with birds and beesC. changing its leaf chemistryD. shaking caterpillars off45. According to the passage, the willow tree was able to communicate with other trees by ______.A. waving its branchesB. giving off a special smellC. dropping its leavesD. changing the colour of its trunk46. The author believes that the incident described in the passage ______.A. cannot be taken seriouslyB. should no longer be permittedC. must be checked more thoroughlyD. seems completely reasonableDI was in a terrible mood. T wo of my friends had gone to the movies the night before and hadn’t invited me. I was in my room thinking of ways to make them sorry when my father came in. “Want to go for a ride, today, Beck? It’s a beautiful day.”“No! Leave me alone!” Those were the la st words I said to him that morning.My friends called and invited me to go to the mall with them a few hours later. I forgot to be mad at them and when I came home to find a note on the table. My mother put it where I would be sure to see it. “Dad has had an accident. Please meet us at Highland Park Hospital”.When I reached the hospital, my mother came out and told me my father’s injuries were extensive. “Your father told the driver to leave him alone and just call 911, thank God! If he had moved D addy, there’s no telling what might have happened. A broken rib（肋骨）might have pierced（穿透）a lung...”My mother may have said more, but I didn’t hear. I didn’t hear anything except those terrible words: Leave me alone. My dad said them to save himself from being hurt more. How much had I hurt him when I hurled those words at him earlier in the day?It was several days later that he was finally able to have a conversation. I held his hand gently, afraid of hurting him.“Daddy… I am so sorry…”“It’s okay,sweetheart. I’ll be okay. ”“No,” I said, “I mean about what I said to you that day. You know, that morning?”My father could no more tell a lie than he could fly. He looked at me and said. “Sweetheart, I don’t remember anything about that day, not before, during or after the accident. I remember kissing you goodnight the night before, though. ”He managed a weak smile.My English teacher once told me that words have immeasurable power. They can hurt or they can heal. And we all have the power to choose our words. I intend to do that very carefully from now on.47. The author was in bad mood that morning because _______.A. his father had a terrible accidentB. he couldn’t drive to the mall with his friendsC. his friends hadn’t invited him to the cinemaD. his father didn’t allow him to go out with his friends48. Why did the author say sorry to his father in the hospital?A. Because he didn’t go along with his father.B. Because he was rude to his father that morning.C. Because he failed to come earlier after the accident.D. Because he couldn’t look after his father in the hospital.49. The reason why the author’s father said he forgot everything about that day is that _______.A. he had a poor memoryB. he didn’t hear what his son saidC. he just wanted to comfort his sonD. he lost his memory after the accident50. What lesson did Beck learn from the matter?A. Don’t treat your parents badly.B. Don’t hurt others with rude words.C. Don’t move the injured in an acc ident.D. Don’t be angry with friends at small things.第二节（共5小题；每题2分，满分10分）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。

Andrew， a herder at a farm in Zimbabwe， it's not a problem． Once he spots Toro， he knows the rest of the herd is nearby． That's because Toro isn't an ordinary member of the herd． He's a giraffe． In hot weather， cattle rest in the shade under his belly． And because of his height， Toro can spot lions long before they come close to the herd．Toro's unusual situation came about after his mother was killed by lions． Toro survived the attack， but he was left with no one to protect him or give him milk． About two days later， some herders spotted and rescued him． With the permission of the Department of Wildlife， the herders moved Toro to Andrew's farm． Since giraffes and cattle are both plant﹣eating animals that live in groups， their behaviors are much the same． Toro was accepted into the herd and wandered among the cattle as they ate grass．Toro doesn't always behave like the other members of his new herd． Like many kinds of animals， cattle compete for dominance （支配）． Standing more than 13 feet tall， Toro is more than three times taller than the biggest bull，But Toro never tries to be ''the boss．''He is very used to their company，'' Andrew said． When the herd enters the kraal （家畜栏）， the cows and bulls push each other． ''But thanks to his height， Toro does not need to join the mess， '' said Andrew．When asked if Toro would ever be returned to the wild， Munetsi， an officer of the Department of Wildlife said no． ''In the wild， he would find it difficult to be accepted into another herd or defend himself from predators （猎食者），'' he added． ''He seems very much at home and is respected by the cattle．''（1）What was Toro like when the herders found him？A． He was left alone．B． He was seriously ill．C． He was lost in the bush．D． He was fighting with lions．（2）What do we know about Toro in the cattle herd？A． He has fought to be the leader．B． He gets along well with the herd．C． He is pushed around by the bulls．D． He stays away from the herd most of the time（3）What will happen to Toro according to Munetsi？A． He will be sent back to the wild．B． He will be put into another herd of giraffes．C． He will continue to live together with Andrew．D． He will be trained to fight with the big animals．（4）What may be the best title for the text？A． Giraffes under threat in the wildB． A surprising new family for a giraffeC． A new way of herding appearing in AfricaD． Moments showing friendship between animals12．（7.5分）A group of university professors recently created a scanner they believe can predict the perfect job for anyone ﹣ simply by looking at their fingerprints． The group says that in the future， fingerprints could help tell a person's key personalities．To use the scanner， people place their fingers upon the fingerprint reader and computer technology connected to sensors reads back what sort of work would suit the individual （个人）．The machine bases its results on a collection of a large amount of information in the computer about how fingerprint shapes connect to job selection．Local companies help researchers from the city's Kuban University of Physical Education and Sport to test the technology．Twenty﹣one﹣year﹣old Oscar Galkin， a mathematics graduate， said， "I got the result from the scanner that I would be suited to a job in IT， which is exactly what I want to do． I don't know if it is luck or if it can really read a person's talents， but it worked for me．"And Zara Tokareva， aged 20， who feels uncomfortable at the sight of blood， said， "I want to be a house designer but the machine said． I should be a nurse． So， no， I don't think it is as clever as is being made out． ''Though fingerprint identification has been widely used in crime discovering， it is still a science that has a lot of possibility of being used， say experts， from discovering drug misuse to personality analysis ﹣ exactly as hand readers have been saying to do for centuries．"The basic idea is that although everybody's fingerprints are completely different， there are obvious features that are common on the fingers of certain professionals working in certain jobs．" Said researcher Ravil Yudin． "It's not really a new idea because hand readers have been saying for hundreds of years that you can tell a person's future by reading their hands． We want to match that by looking at fingerprints and trying to tell what career path people would choose．"（1）It can be inferred from the 6th paragraph that the fingerprint scanner．A． has been used in job huntingB． is popular with young menC． helps companies a lotD． needs to be improved（2）What can we learn from what Ravil Yudin said？A． The fingerprint scanner is based on a new idea．B． Certain people's fingers actually have something in common．C． Telling one's future by reading his hands started a few years ago．D． The technology of fingerprint identification can be used in many fields．（3）The text is written to．A． tell the future of hand readersB． show the features of fingerprintsC． introduce a technical productD． help job hunters understand themselves well13．（7.5分）Recent findings have shown that our appetite and food intake are influenced by a large number of factors besides our biological need for energy， including our eating environment and our perception （感知） of the food in front of us． A new study suggested that our short﹣term memory may also play a role in appetite． Several hours after a meal， people's hunger levels were predicted not by how much they'd eaten but rather by how much food they'd seen in front of them ﹣ in other words， how much they remembered eating． This difference suggests the memory of our previous meal may have a bigger influence on our appetite than the actual size of the meal，says Jeffrey M．Brunstrom，a professor of experimental psychology at the University of Bristol．"Hunger isn't controlled merely by the physical characteristics of a recent meal． We have identified an independent role for memory for that meal，" Brunstrom says． "This shows that the relationship between hunger and food intake is more complex than we thought．"These findings echo earlier research that suggests our perceptions of food can sometimes trick our body's response to the food itself．In a 2016 study，for instance，people who drank the same 380﹣calorie milkshake on two separate occasions produced different levels of hunger﹣related hormones （荷尔蒙），depending on whether the shake's label said it contained 620 or 140 calories． Moreover， the participants reported feeling more full when they thought they'd consumed a higher﹣calorie shake．（1）What affects our appetite according to the new study？A． How much we remember eating．B． What time we eat our last meal．C． How much we eat our last meal．D． What ingredients the food contains．（2）The underlined word "echo" in the last paragraph means in Chinese．A．暗示B．反映C．印证D．改善（3）What is the main idea of the text？A． Good eating habits contribute to our health．B． Eating speed often affects our food digestion．C． Psychological factors influence our hunger levels．D． Our biological need for energy determines our food intake．第二节（共1小题；每小题10分，满分10分）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．选项中有两项为多余选项．14．（10分）After a long day at work， coming home is a breath of fresh air．（1） However， is it as healthy as it can be？ Below are a number of things we can do to create a healthy home environment that will help to case the workday stress and promote our physical and mental health．Cleaning the house regularly is the first thing we should do． It may seem like a tiring thing to clean but there is a reason for doing so． We can remove dust by cleaning the house． Leaving layers of dust everywhere means that there is a build﹣up of dust．（2） Into our lungs．Making sure the rooms are full of sunlight is also important． We may not realize it but sunlight is an important part of our growth． We all know that sunlight promotes better working conditions．（3）Think about using a Parans system where sunlight does not reach． This technology gathers the sunlight by using solar panels （板）． It can send out sunlight wherever we are．（4） Going green will help to remove toxins （毒素） in the air． They also give off oxygen，which can lower stress and improve our moods．Along the lines of being green，it can also be vital to think about what things we are bringing into the house． Try to avoid specific plastics that are harmful to health．（5） They may contain poisonous chemicals that can be breathed in， or simply absorbed through the skin．A． And where do these layers of dust go？B． Home is a comfortable place to sit back and relax．C． Is our home as safe as it used to be？D． The same thing applies to certain carpets and paint．E． It is also a good idea to add more plants in our house．F． Besides， it can reduce both stress and high blood pressure．G． It is acknowledged that a greener lifestyle is linked to better health．第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共1小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项．15．（30分）A friend of mine is a musician．He

She wore a fairy princess suit made of shining red silk． I knew if I lifted her skirt I would find her crystal （水晶） shoes． The tiny tiara（冠状头饰） fastened to her silky golden hair shone．"If only she were mine，" I dreamed． "We'd have tea parties， share secrets and dance with a handsome prince．" But to my disappointment， my mother guided me away from the window， explaining that she and my father could not afford such an expensive doll． "But there will be a very special gift under the tree for you on Christmas morning， Madge，" she said． "I promise．" Later that week I leaned against Mother's sewing machine， watching the needle flash up and down． "Bet you don't know what this is!" she joked， holding up the cloth for me to see．"My Christmas doll!" I yelled． It was still in the early stages but I could make out the head， neck and body． "So much to my surprise!" Mother laughed as I danced around the room， already pretending Cinderella and I were at the ball． It wouldn't be long now．My excitement grew with each passing day． Mother continued to work on the doll， and whenever I walkedinto the room she would hide it under a pillow． I could tell by her smile she was pleased with her progress． On Christmas morning I jumped out of bed， ran down the hall and quickly arrived at the living room where the Christmas tree was placed．注意：1．所续写短文的词数应为150左右；2．至少使用5个短文中标有下划线的关键词语；3．续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语己为你写好；4．续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语．Paragraph 1：There， underneath the

the bush． But for Andrew， a herder at a farm in Zimbabwe， it's not a problem． Once he spots Toro， he knows the rest of the herd is nearby． That's because Toro isn't an ordinary member of the herd． He's a giraffe． In hot weather， cattle rest in the shade under his belly． And because of his height， Toro can spot lions long before they come close to the herd．Toro's unusual situation came about after his mother was killed by lions． Toro survived the attack， but he was left with no one to protect him or give him milk． About two days later， some herders spotted and rescued him． With the permission of the Department of Wildlife， the herders moved Toro to Andrew's farm． Since giraffes and cattle are both plant﹣eating animals that live in groups， their behaviors are much the same． Toro was accepted into the herd and wandered among the cattle as they ate grass．Toro doesn't always behave like the other members of his new herd． Like many kinds of animals， cattle compete for dominance （支配）． Standing more than 13 feet tall， Toro is more than three times taller than the biggest bull，But Toro never tries to be ''the boss．''He is very used to their company，'' Andrew said． When the herd enters the kraal （家畜栏）， the cows and bulls push each other． ''But thanks to his height， Toro does not need to join the mess， '' said Andrew．When asked if Toro would ever be returned to the wild， Munetsi， an officer of the Department of Wildlife said no． ''In the wild， he would find it difficult to be accepted into another herd or defend himself from predators （猎食者），'' he added． ''He seems very much at home and is respected by the cattle．''（1）What was Toro like when the herders found him？AA． He was left alone．B． He was seriously ill．C． He was lost in the bush．D． He was fighting with lions．（2）What do we know about Toro in the cattle herd？BA． He has fought to be the leader．B． He gets along well with the herd．C． He is pushed around by the bulls．D． He stays away from the herd most of the time（3）What will happen to Toro according to Munetsi？CA． He will be sent back to the wild．B． He will be put into another herd of giraffes．C． He will continue to live together with Andrew．D． He will be trained to fight with the big animals．（4）What may be the best title for the text？BA． Giraffes under threat in the wildB． A surprising new family for a giraffeC． A new way of herding appearing in AfricaD． Moments showing friendship between animals【解答】（1）A．细节理解题．根据第二段，Toro survived the attack，but he was left with no one to protect him or give him milk．可知，当放牧人发现Toro时，它是独自一个，没有人保护它或者给它食物．A． He was left alone．（它被独自留下了）符合以上说法，故选A．（2）B．细节理解题．根据第二段，Since giraffes and cattle are both plant﹣eating animals that live in groups， their behaviors are much the same． Toro was accepted into the herd and wandered among the cattle as they ate grass．因为长颈鹿和牛都是食草群居动物，它们的行为习惯很相似．Toro被牛群接受了，每天牛吃草时它就和它们一起．可知，Toro和牛群相处的很好．B． He gets along well with the herd．（它和牛群相处得好）符合以上说法，故选B．（3）C．推理判断题．根据最后一段，''In the wild， he would find it difficult to be accepted into another herd or defend himself from predators （猎食者）， '' he added． ''He seems very much at home and is respected by the cattle． '' 在野外，它很难被其它长颈鹿群接受，或者不能抵御猎食者，它在这里感觉很舒服，而且牛群也尊敬它．可推测，Toro将会继续和Andrew一起生活．C． He will continue to live together with Andrew．（他将继续和Andrew生活）符合以上推测，故选C．（4）B．标题归纳题．根据文章的主要内容，尤其是第二段的With the permission of the Department of Wildlife， the herders moved Toro to Andrew's farm． Since giraffes and cattle are both plant﹣eating animals that live in groups， their behaviors are much the same． Toro was accepted into the herd and wandered among the cattle as they ate grass．在野生动物部门的同意下，这些放牧人把Toro带到了Andrew的家里．因为长颈鹿和牛都是食草群居动物，它们的行为习惯很相似．Toro被牛群接受了，每天牛吃草时它就和它们一起．可知，本文主要讲述了一头长颈鹿来到放牧人的家里，和牛群生活在一起的故事．B． Asurprising new family for a giraffe （一头长颈鹿的意外的新家）可以作为本文标题，故选B．12．（7.5分）A group of university professors recently created a scanner they believe can predict the perfect job for anyone ﹣ simply by looking at their fingerprints． The group says that in the future， fingerprints could help tell a person's key personalities．To use the scanner， people place their fingers upon the fingerprint reader and computer technology connected to sensors reads back what sort of work would suit the individual （个人）．The machine bases its results on a collection of a large amount of information in the computer about how fingerprint shapes connect to job selection．Local companies help researchers from the city's Kuban University of Physical Education and Sport to test the technology．Twenty﹣one﹣year﹣old Oscar Galkin， a mathematics graduate， said， "I got the result from the scanner that I would be suited to a job in IT， which is exactly what I want to do． I don't know if it is luck or if it can really read a person's talents， but it worked for me．"And Zara Tokareva， aged 20， who feels uncomfortable at the sight of blood， said， "I want to be a house designer but the machine said． I should be a nurse． So， no， I don't think it is as clever as is being made out． ''Though fingerprint identification has been widely used in crime discovering， it is still a science that has a lot of possibility of being used， say experts， from discovering drug misuse to personality analysis ﹣ exactly as hand readers have been saying to do for centuries．"The basic idea is that although everybody's fingerprints are completely different， there are obvious features that are common on the fingers of certain professionals working in certain jobs．" Said researcher Ravil Yudin． "It's not really a new idea because hand readers have been saying for hundreds of years that you can tell a person's future by reading their hands． We want to match that by looking at fingerprints and trying to tell what career path people would choose．"（1）It can be inferred from the 6th paragraph that the fingerprint scanner D．A． has been used in job huntingB． is popular with young menC． helps companies a lotD． needs to be improved（2）What can we learn from what Ravil Yudin said？BA． The fingerprint scanner is based on a new idea．。
