Why Dogs Bury Their Favorite BonesYou may find it crazy that your dog buries his favorite bone or chew toy, only to dig it up a day or two later, but there is actually a reason behind it-it is simply in their nature. For thousands of years, dogs have buried their bones. The practice itself started long before dogs were even pets when they had to bury bones to survive.When dogs lived in the wild, sometimes food was scarce. If they were able to find food dogs became very protective of it. Sometimes they would have more bones than they could eat for one meal. To keep other dogs and animals from stealing their bones, dogs would bury them in the ground. When it was time for the next meal, they would dig up their bones and enjoy them again. This would continue until the bones were gone.Even though most dogs have plenty of food to eat today, their instincts still tell them to bury their bones and favorite toys. They do this to keep other dogs and animals from stealing them, just like their ancestors did. Some dogs keep at least two bones buried at once. When they want to dig up one, they will by one more. This may leave a backyard full of holes and bones.How do dogs decide where to buy their bones? A dog cannot buy a bone just anywhere. He must first find the perfect spot. This involves using his nose to find a spot that is free from other dogs and animals. Often it is near a tree or a large rock, but it could be anywhere in the yard. Once the dog finds the perfect spot, he uses his front paws to dig a hole drops the bone in and covers up the hole to protect his treasure.1. Dogs bury their favorite bones or chew toys by nature.A.

It is defined as the time a patient spends in a hospital from admission to discharge. The impact of LOS on both patients’ recovery and healthcare systems is multifaceted. Most societies aim to minimize LOS to ensure cost-effectiveness and improve overall patient experience.According to the World Health Organization (WHO), optimizing hospital LOS is crucial to balancing patient care with resource allocation.

As such, reducing LOS for these patients can lead to better health outcomes and reduced financial burden on the healthcare system.Modern healthcare technologies have played a pivotal role in reducing hospital LOS. Advanced diagnostic tools allow for faster and more accurate identification of patients’ conditions, leading to timely interventions. Similarly, innovations in medication administration and patient monitoring devices have enabled healthcare professionals to closely monitor patients’ recovery processes and discontinue treatments when necessary.However, hospital LOS remains a complex issue due to various factors, such as hospital resources, staff availability, and patient-specific conditions. Navigating these factors requires a holistic approach that encompasses continuous improvement, evidence-based practice, and the adoption of new technologies.Questions:1.What is the primary purpose of optimizing hospital length of stay (LOS)?A.

2024年四月份英语二考试真题与答案
2024年四月份英语二考试真题与答案全文共6篇示例，供读者参考篇1The Big English Test in April 2024Wow, what a day it was! The big English Test 2 for April 2024 was today and my brain is still spinning from all the questions. I've been studying so hard for weeks, but tests always make me a little nervous no matter how prepared I feel.It started off pretty good I think. The listening section had some fun conversations to listen to. There was one about two friends deciding what game to play at recess. I love hanging out with my friends at recess so I could relate to that one. Then there was a mom talking to her kid about making their favorite snack. Yum, snacks!The reading passages were a little trickier though. The first one was about these cool robots that can do backflips. How awesome is that?! I'd love to have a robot buddy that could do flips with me. But some of the vocabulary about the technology was pretty advanced. I had to slow down and really focus.Then there was a story about a kid who went camping with their family. That one reminded me of the time we went camping last summer. We roasted marshmallows and went hiking. It was so much fun...until it started raining and our tent leaked! The characters had a leaky tent too but thankfully no rain ruined their trip.For the writing section, I had to write a short story which is one of my favorite things to do. I wrote about a dog who accidentally gets launched into outer space in a rocket ship! The dog doesn't know how to fly the ship but luckily meets some friendly aliens who help get him back home. I worked really hard coming up with all the details and checking my spelling and grammar.Finally, the grammar questions were pretty tricky as usual.

One of the most significant impacts of the internet is on higher education. Online courses have become increasingly popular, allowing students to learn from the comfort of their own homes, at their own pace, and from a diverse range of instructors worldwide. This change has raised several debates in educational circles, with some arguing in favor of the benefits and others concerned about potential drawbacks.Many enthusiasts of online education point out that it offers flexibility, allowing students to juggle other commitments more easily. For instance, working professionals can now attend college-level courses while continuing their jobs. Moreover, online courses often feature interactive elements such as discussion forums and video conferencing, which can enhance the learning experience.However, critics argue that the absence of face-to-face interaction can lead to feelings of isolation and less effective learning. They also note that the quality of online instruction cannot always be guaranteed, as there is no standardized quality control in place.The following passage is a response to the above debate.Question:Read the following paragraph and then answer the question by choosing the best answer (A), (B), (C), (D), or (E).While some argue that online education provides a more convenient and accessible way of learning, others contend that it lacks the personal touch necessary for effective teaching and learning.

First, the personalized approach to learning in traditional settings, such as the classroom, enables students to receive individualized attention and support from instructors. Second, the collaborative nature of face-to-face interactions fosters a sense of community and creates a conducive environment for learning.

In addition, the way such farm birds as chickens and ducks are traditionally raised and marketed in the developing world should be changed; there should be more distance between the birds and their keepers. Countries should deal with the disease with joint effort. If one country is inadequately prepared, it will be a threat to every other country.The potential effects of a national outbreak of bird flu are enormous. Firstly, an outbreak may kill large numbers of people. World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that an outbreak similar to the mild Hong Kong flu of 1968 could kill as many as 7.4 millions people. If it were as dangerous as the 1918 Spanish flu, which killed 50 million, the number would be much higher. Secondly, such an outbreak may cause great financial damage. The latest outbreak of bird flu, which began in December 2003, has cost Southeast Asia more than $10 billion and depressed its GDP by 1.5 percent. If a new outbreak of bird flu were to last for a whole year, $800 billion would be lost.Despite the 124 human cases and 63 deaths from bird flu since December 2003, the virus remains mainly a disease animals. However, the more animals that die of the disease, the more chances it has of spreading to people. Large numbers of dead or dying birds mean that more people will be exposed to the virus and change into a virus with new characteristics. If the international community works together efficiently, man can surely prevent such a virus and possibly save millions of lives.26. Faced with the threat of a global outbreak of bird flu, the international community should ________.A. establish new marketsB. work together effectivelyC. stop birds from flying to other countriesD. raise fewer chickens and ducks27. The second paragraph focuses on ______.A. World Health OrganizationB. flus in Hong Kong and SpainC. the economy of Southeast AsiaD. possible effects of a bird flu outbreak28. The number of people who have died of bird flu since 2003 is _______.A. 63B. 124C. 7.4 millionD. 50 million29. In the third paragraph, the author is mainly interested in _____.A. stimulating financial growthB. reducing economic damagesC. saving human livesD. protecting bird species30. The passage deals with all the following aspects bird flu EXCEPT _______.A. the origin and history of bird fluB. the importance of international cooperationC. the possible dangers of a national outbreakD. the significance of preventing it from spreadingPassage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.The long summer holidays are finally over and some parents are pleased. "We worry more about their safety in the holidays," explains one mother from North London. If teenagers are not wandering around on public transport in a big and potentially dangerous city, they are chatting to strangers in an internet chat room! Well, that's an extreme picture of the UK today, but many parents are worried about how much freedom they can give their children during the holidays and at weekends.Weekends are not the only time to worry! Newspaper are full of stories about too many school kids going to school by car because their parents do not want them to travel alone on a bus or train. This summer there were more frightening stories of teenagers disappearing with questionable friends that they met on the net. All the Media stories help increase parents fears, but is the UK really so dangerous?Many young people feel that life for their parents was easier. In the 1960s young people played in the streets more and traveled around town without their parents. "At least our parents can keep tabs on us," says 16-year-old Julia. "So many people have mobile phones now and their parents ring to find out where they are. I use my mobile to get Dad to come to the station when I arrive late." Mobiles are not just expensive toys; they help keep young people safe. Most significantly, they help keep young people safe. Most significantly, they make parents feel better. Only one problem is, though, that some young people have been attacked by thieves who want to steal their mobile phones.Young people like going out with friends, but they now need to learn how to get home safely. Five million young people in the UK between the ages of 9 to 16 use chat rooms to make friends, but they, too, need to be careful and never give their personal details to a stranger. Young people today have more opportunities to meet new people and go out at night more than their parents ever did. Now school, television programs and newspapers must help teenagers to enjoy their freedom and to be responsible for their own safety.31. Some parents are upset about the summer holidays mainly because their children ______.A. wander around on bus in the cityB. chat to strangers in Internet chat roomsC. make questionable friends on the netD. are taken little care of by teachers32. For the sake of the safety, many parents send their kids to school ________.A. by carB. by busC. by trainD. by public transport33. Most significantly, mobile phones _______.A. enable parents keep a close watch on their kidsB. help keep teenagers safeC. make parents feel less worriedD. protect teenagers from being attacked34. Teenagers should never give any strangers ______.A. their mobile phone numbersB. their family addressC. their personal informationD. their parents' names35. This passage is mainly about ________.A. freedom for teenagers in summer holidaysB. safety for teenagers in summer holidaysC. activities for teenagers in summer holidaysD. troubles for teenagers in summer holidaysPART TWO (50 POINTS)IV.
