alyssa knew it was wolf 06 from the radio collar the animal was wearing. the collars are put on wolves in the park by members of the yellowstone wolf project. the collars help them keep track of how the wolves are doing. later that day, alyssas group spotted more wolf tracks. “they were the size of my hand,” she says. they followed the tracks and suddenly saw a big black wolf. he stopped and howled, then continued across the river. “we were only 20 to 30 feet away from him,” says alyssa. to her delight, alyssa learned it was wolf 712mthe same animal alyssas family had sponsored for a radio collar. “its one thing to see a picture of him,” says alyssa. “but its another to see him in the wild!” alyssa was amazed at the animals she saw in yellowstone. she even crawled inside an abandoned wolf cave. “yellowstone was an amazing adventure,” she says. “im going to ask my friends to help protect wolves.”26. alyssa grayson is probably a _.a. wolf expertb. wolf defenderc. nature journalistd. worker in a park27. how did alyssa recognize wolf 06?a. through the behavior of the wolf. b. through the wolfs radio collar.c. her companions told her. d. the park keeper told her.28. alyssas family once _.a. saw wolves in the wildb. took pictures of wolvesc. saved the life of wolf 712md. provided money for a radio collar29. after the tri to yellowstone, alyssa plans to _.a. repair the abandoned wolf cavesb. has more adventures by herselfc. ask more people to protect wolvesd. invites her friends to visit yellowstone30. the passage is most probably taken from _.a. a science reportb. a personal diaryc. a research paperd. a travel magazineb its exciting to imagine how future humans will have solved the problems we have now, or what amazing new inventions will make our lives more convenient and interesting. we asked top scientists to share their predictions on what the world will be like in a century. if theyre right, the 2114 is going to be really cool. 1. robots will do your chores and more robots will be doing most of our jobs, from building homes to teaching math. there are already robots that clean floors and pump gas. in the future they will be more complicated and useful. unfortunately, with robots taking all the jobs, unemployment will be high.2. you will read minds.speaking of being social, we will communicate in an entirely different way. forget texts and emails. mind-reading technology will allow us to send thoughts to each other without speaking a word. we will also be able to send thoughts to objects around us. (instead of pressing “start” on the microwave, you could just think “start.”) meanwhile, chips implanted（植入）in our brains will improve memory and intelligence.3. your car will drive youtoday, around 30,000 americans die in car accidents each year. one hundred years form now, accidents will be a thing of the past. according to mark safford, consultant or the u.s. department of transportation, future cars will drive themselves. these electric cars will communicate with other cars on the road to travel safely in close formation at high speeds.4. you will eat fake meat.raising animals is not an efficient way to produce food, and it harms the environment: cows, chickens, and pigs eat a lot, and then we have to deal with all that poop（粪便）. whats more, that poop can up poisoning lakes, rivers, and streams. today, scientists can “grow” meat in a lab from animal cells, but its expensive and not very delicious. in the future, they will have perfected the process. youll order hamburgers that come from factories, not cows. scientists may even find ways to make lab-grown meat tastier and healthier than the real thing.31. according to the passage, what is likely to happen when robots

kyle hargreaves, 13, had a secret fear. it wasnt of snakes or spiders or flying on an airplane. kyle was afraid of mascots. mascots caused kyle to experience true terror. his heart would pound. sweat would pour down his face. he would have trouble breathing. he tried to control his fewer, but he couldnt. kyle suffered from a condition called mask lophobia（吉祥物恐惧症）. more than 19 million american adults suffer from some kind of phobia. fear response is very important to us in order to keep safe. in fact, all creatures are programmed to recognize and avoid threads in their environment. but being afraid of something dangerous is very different from having a phobia. with phobias, the fear response is caused by something that isnt threatening (or isnt as threatening as the person feels it is), and then those feelings of terror dont go away. given the intensity of their terror, its understandable that people with phobias go to extreme lengths to avoid the object of their fear. but avoidance makes phobias worse, says amit etkin, a professor at stanford university. if you dont interact with the thing that scares you, the brain will never accept that its not harmful, and scary fantasies can become more exaggerated（夸大的）。 kyles dad took him to a hospital. there, kyle was treated with a technique called exposure. kyles treatment began when he was greeted by a man carrying a rabbit costume. kyle started to panic but didnt run away. he knew he needed to face his fear. once kyle felt calm, the man put on the costume except for the head. kyle again became anxious, but eventually he relaxed. the two played basketball. after a while, the man put on the head and other mascots joined the game. by the end of the day though, kyles fear had disappeared. that evening, he and his dad went to an annual event at virginia tech called “gobblerfest,” where they interacted with many mascots. kyle felt no trepidation at all. to celebrate kyles new, fear-free relationship to mascots, his family decided to take a trip. where did they go? disney world, of course!36. when kyle saw mascots, he _.a. was very excitedb. became extremely terrifiedc. dreamed of taking the planed. thought of snakes and spiders37. which of the following is a symptom of having a phobia?a. a boy is afraid of snakes.b. seeing a big fire, a man is scared.c. a girl seeing a toy bear is terrified.d. seeing blood on the floor, a lady runs away.38. for phobia suffers, avoiding the object of their fear can _.a. lead to other problemsb. solve their problems graduallyc. do good to them in some waysd. only make their problem worse39. how was kyle treated in the hospital?a. by making more friends.b. by learning to play basketball.c. by carrying a variety of costumes.d. by being gradually exposed to mascots.40. the underlined word “trepidation” in the last paragraph can be replaced by “_”.a. regretb. terrorc. mercyd. shamed for some time, people thought that some differences between boys and girls result from differences in the way they are raised. for example, parents often give young boys toy trucks to play with, while young girls get to play with dolls. but cross-cultural studies have shown that giving toy trucks to girls and dolls to boys didnt change basic agree that there are natural male-female differences, including differences in learning styles. a high school choir director tells a story about learning style differences. with the girls, hell begin teaching a new song by sharing a story about why the composer wrote the song. “telling the girls a story about the piece gets them interested. the boys are just the opposite,” he said. “if you start talking like that with the boys, theyll start looking at their watches.” another difference in learning styles is the way boys and girls relate to teachers. most girls want to study hard so that they can please their teachers. pleasing adults is not a strong motivation for most boys, however. boys are usually less interested in studying unless the material they are studying really interesting to them. girls and boys also react differently to unsuccessful learning experiences. girls tend to think that if they fail in something, they have disappointed their teachers and parents. when boys fail a test or a class, however, they dont see their failure as having any wider influence. they failed the test; they failed the class. thats all it means for them. what is more, researchers found that girls generally do better than boys in all subjects and in all age groups. but interestingly, this does not make girls more self-confident than boys. girls tend to have higher standards for themselves and to judge their performance more critically than boys do. and boys tend to have unrealistically high estimations（评价）of their own academic abilities and accomplishments. girls need more encouragement from teachers than boys. boys, on the other hand, often need a reality check.41. according to the choir director, the background information on a song _.a. bores boysb. interests boysc. bores boys and girlsd. interests boys and girls42. which of the following can best motivate most boys to study hard?a. scores.b. parents.c. interest.d. teachers.43. according to paragraph 4, if a girl fails a test, _.a. her teacher will be very angryb. her parents will be very disappointedc. she will work harder to do better next timed. she will feel guilty about letting her parents down44. researchers found that boys need a reality check to _.a. make them feel more confident b. prove they are smarter than girlsc. find out what they have understood d. understand their real academic abilities45. which can be the best title for the passage?a. students personality differencesb. why do girls do better than boys in school?c. how are boys and girls raised by their parents?d. the differences between boys and girls in class 第二节 信息匹配 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)请阅读下列应用文和相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。请在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑。首先请阅读下列图书介绍：a. then
