17、animals. Now comes the terrifying news that cats look up to their owners as role models and copy their behaviour.Next time you reach for your fridge, think twice. If your cat is watching, she will probably overeat as well.In a new study from the University of Messina, it turns out that indoor cats w

18、ho live closely to their owners “mirror” the lives of their caregivers. They sleep at the same time, eat at the same time, and can even become more or less social depending on the behaviour of their owners.“Cats are clever animals with a long memory,” Jane Brunt, director of the Catalyst Council, to

19、ld Discovery News. “They watch and learn from us, noting the patterns of our actions, knowing where their food is kept and what time to expect to be fed, how to open the cupboard door thats been improperly closed, and where their feeding and toileting areas are.” Because cats copy our habits, if you

20、 spend a lot of time raiding(搜刮)the fridge, your cat will return to its food bowl for that midnight snack, too. According to the study, this explains why “human and cat overweight rates often seem to match” Theres no word if drinking green tea and making sure you go to yoga will benefit (使受益) your c

21、at, but based on the study, it sounds like sticking to a healthy eating and sleeping habit is best for both of you.Theres a lot we can learn from our cats in return. “When they sit softly breathing , eyes halfclosed, the sense of peace and calm that comes over us is like a private less on in inner m

22、editation(冥想)，”Brunt said. Theyre probably pretty good at remaining calm.So, according to science, though we think that cats are not close to us all these years, it turns out they are in fact learning from us and looking up to us. Scary, huh?1According to the passage, which of the following is Wrong

23、?ACats can copy humans behaviours.BCats are smart and have a long memory.CGreen tea and yoga can benefit cats.DHumans can learn from cats in some way.2What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 4 refer to?AHumans keeping searching the fridge.BHumans drinking green tea and going to yogaCCats c

25、ake your cat socialDYour cat is copying your habitB14、Some people say that today, reading is not as important as it was. These days we have photographs, films, radio and television. Why read a description of something when you can look at a photograph? Why read a newspaper when the latest news is br

26、ought to us every hour on radio and TV?Photography was certainly a wonderful invention. Photographs can give a very clear idea of places and of people that we have never seen. An encyclopedia (百科全书) , for example, is always better when it has good illustrations. But we also need words to explain the

27、 photographs and drawings. A photograph of an elephant may give us a very good idea of what an elephant looks like, but it tells us nothing about the different sorts of elephants there are and where they are found, their exact size and weight, how they can be useful to man and so on.In the same way,

28、 a good film has action, movement, color, and maybe music. These are things we do not find on the printed page. But reading a novel has certain advantages over watching even an excellent feature film. Reading a novel requires imagination. Each of us imagines a story differently.Watching news on tele

29、vision can certainly be exciting. But we need newspapers as well. Some important news stories happen when there are no cameras around. More importantly, a newspaper does not just report the news. It explains why something has been happening. It also contains interesting articles on different subject

30、s. Newspapers are an important part of our lives, if we want to understand what is going on in the places we live as well as in other parts of the world.Reading is very important for information and pleasure. We need to be good readers to enjoy a full life as human beings. Reading is a skill and lik

31、e other skills, it needs practice. The more we read, the better readers we become. And the better readers we become, the more we enjoy reading! The secret is to get the reading habit. Read at least a little every day.1According to Paragraph 2, photographs can give us _.Aenough information about peop

32、le and placesBno information about thingsCsome information about things but not enoughDthe wrong information about things2Newspapers contain _.Amore information than televisionBless information than televisionCmore news from other countriesDless information about important events than TV3What are th

33、e advantages of novel over a feature film?AThere are more interesting subjects in novels.BWe do not hear any music in a novel.CNovels always explain what is happening.DNovels make us use our imagination.4What does the author think about reading?AIt is a wonderful invention.BIt is an important part o

34、f our lives.CIt requires no practices.DIt is not as important as television.C15、“Chicken” idioms（习语）The word “chicken” is used in so many English idioms. Do you know the following?Dont count your chicken before they hatch.The expression “Dont count your chickens before they hatch” means “Dont expect

35、 that all your eggs, which have been laid, will hatch.” “Hatch” is a verb, meaning the baby chicken breaks open the shell of the egg and comes out successfully. So the expression mainly means “Dont depend on things working out just as you want them to.” This saying appears in the story The Milkmaid

36、and Her Pail in Aesops Fables.A chicken-and-egg situationIn history, philosophers（哲学家）and scientists have met this dilemma（困境）:Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Aristotle thought that both the bird and the egg must have always been there. However, more recently, scientists such as Stephen Ha

37、wking have argued that the egg came before the chicken. In common speech, the term “a chicken-and-egg situation” means a situation where it is impossible to say which of two things appeared first and which caused the other one.Dont be such a chickenThere seems to be an idea in English, somehow, that

38、 a chicken is a scared bird. Maybe thats not fair as most birds will probably fly away from you if you go towards them. But “Dont be such a chicken” means “Dont be so scared and get a bit more courage.” So if your friend is afraid to do something , you can say to him or her, “Dont be such a chicken.

39、 Just have a try!”1The underlined word “hatch” means “_” in Chinese.A孵化 B长大 C破碎 D出售2While discussing the idiom “A chicken-and-egg situation”, the writer mentions Aristotle and Stephen Hawking to show that _.AAristotles opinion was wrongBStephen Hawkings opinion is wrongCits impossible to find the ri

40、ght answer to this questionDphilosophers and scientists usually have the same answer to a question3We may use the idiom “Dont be such a chicken” in the situation when someone_.Ais not brave enough Benjoys counting his chickensChas difficulty making a choice Dhopes things will work out just as he wan

Come back in half an hour.” When I went a second time for him, she

43、 said, “hes not down yet.” I had to go away again. Later I thought the doctor should be in the house in the evening, so I went there once more. “Oh, how sorry I am! Hes not in ! Id better tell him to wait for you if you could come tomorrow.” said the nurse. “Well! Hes not up, he is not down, and he

People reached these different places along these roa

55、ds. Scientists believe people began to travel the Silk Road about 3000 years ago. By the time the Chinese silk trade became important in the world, the Silk Road covered almost 6500 kilometers. It spread from Rome to China, which is from the West to the Far East.Traders travelling along the Silk Roa

56、d carried silk, of course. They also carried and traded spices (香料), cloth, valuable stones and gold.There is a famous old story along the old road.

57、 Romans married local Chinese women and the story of blue-eyed villages of China was started.During its busiest period, the Silk Road allowed people from many different cultures and countries to meet each other and mix.
