If you have then youre not alone.When and where dogs first began living side-side with humans are questions that have stirred hot debate among scientists.There are a few hard facts that all agree on.These include that dogs were once wolves and they were the first animal to be domesticated(驯养) by humans.They came into lives some 15，000 years ago，before the dawn of agriculture.Beyond that，there is little agreement.The earliest bones found that are unquestionable dogs and not wolves date from 14，000 years ago.However，30，000-year-old skulls have been discovered in France and Belgium that are not pure wolf and some scientists think could be dogs.With such puzzling evidence，many scientists are now turning to DNA to find out when and where dogs were first domesticated.In one research project，tens of thousands of blood samples have been taken from street dogs around the world.The plan is to compare them with those of wolves.Its even possible to analyse DNA from ancient bones.Tiny pieces of the 30，000-year-old skulls mentioned earlier are currently being studied，and another DNA study has already shown that ancient dogs preserved in the Alaskan ice-fields evolved from Asian wolves，not American ones.Indeed，the ancient DNA may turn out to be more informative than the DNA of living dogs.Because dogs have accompanied humans around the world for thousands of years，their current distribution may tell us very little of their origins.This is why different groups of scientists believe that dogs variously originated in eastern Asia，Mongolia，Siberia，Europe or Africa.But why were the animals domesticated in the first place? The most recent theory is that dogs domesticated themselves，initially living in and around our ancient villages to eat any food thrown out.Today，this is a way of life still shared by three-quarters of a billion unowned dogs worldwide.【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了家畜狗的来历。1Which is the only statement generally agreed on by scientists studying dogs?AThey originally were used as farm animal.BThey evolved from wolves found in Europe.CThey helped the development of agriculture.DThey were the first animal to be kept as pets.解析：细节理解题。根据第一自然段“There are a few hard facts that all agree on.These include that dogs were once wolves and they were the first animal to be domesticated(驯养) by humans”可知选项D正确。答案：D2Why does the writer first mention the 30，000-year-old animals skulls?ATo show that dogs were much larger in the past.BTo prove that dogs developed from Asian wolves.CTo suggest that dogs may have evolved much earlier.DTo argue that dogs were first kept in France and Belgium.解析：细节理解题。通过题目中出现的“30，000-year-old animals skulls”定位到第二自然段“However，30，000-year-old skulls have been discovered in France and Belgium that are not pure wolf and some scientists think could be dogs.”可知狗出现的时间最早可追溯到30，000年前，而不是14，000之前。答案：C3How did scientists determine the origins of the ancient dogs found in Alaska?ABy examine the animals DNA.BBy analyzing the age of their bones.CBy studying the shape of their skulls.DBy comparing them with modern dogs.解析：细节理解题。通过题目中关键词Alaska 定位文中第三自然段最后一句话“another DNA study has already shown that ancient dogs preserved in the Alaskan ice-fields evolved from Asian wolves”可知是用DNA检测的。答案：A4Why did dogs start living with humans?ABecause they were attracted by food.BBecause they were trapped by humans.CBecause they couldnt survive in the wild.DBecause they were trained to protect villages.解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段“The most recent theory is that dogs domesticated themselves，initially living in and around our ancient villages to eat any food thrown out”可知狗是因为被村民扔出的食物所吸引。答案：A.语法填空阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。(2017阜阳师大附中高三模拟)Last year，my brother and I went to Miami for a vacation.Some of my friends who had been there before said 1._was a wonderful holiday destination.Before we went，we had planned for months.When the day came，we were ready.After our plane landed，we went to the hotel.We had made our 2._(reserve) six months earlier，but the man at the front desk said there had been a mistake.We 3._(tell)that our rooms hadnt been reserved for that week，4._for the week after.I didnt understand 5._this would happen and my credit card had already been charged 6._the booking.Whats worse，the hotel had been fully booked.When we were wondering what to do，the manager came out.She was 7._(surprise)helpful.She 8._(apology) for the mistake and gave us a spare VIP room on the top floor.We had never stayed in such an amazing room，and we werent charged extra.The
