At first, Dorothy Sorlie thought she was just getting old, though not as gracefully as she’d hoped. Retired from teaching English at a local college, Sorlie, then 74, began losing interest in things she'd enjoyed, including reading and cooking. She couldn’t concentrate. Her handwriting changed. The symptoms occurred so gradually that initially she wasn’t aware anything was happening.
Things kept getting worse. She started worrying that she might be developing early dementia (痴呆). The physical symptoms progressed too. Most worrisome, she began having trouble walking and started falling. Through it all, her doctors struggled to explain what was happening.
She and her husband, Jim Urness, were desperate for answers; It would take years before they got them. The doctors’ diagnoses (诊断), all incorrect, could account for one or two of Sorlie’s symptoms but not all of them, and none of the treatments seemed to help.
The couple traveled across the country looking for someone who could tell them what was wrong. However, one possible explanation for her symptoms after another proved incorrect. At last, Sorlie’s primary care doctor，Kevin Wergeland found the disease responsible for all her symptoms was a little-known condition called normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH). Although her condition was detected at an advanced state, it was treatable.
In fact, NPH is sometimes referred to as “treatable dementia”. It is an insidious (潜伏的) and mysterious disorder that can copy many more common problems including Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. An estimated 700000 people in the United States have NPH, although ifs believed that fewer than 20 percent of them are correctly diagnosed.
Sorlie is now free of NPH symptoms, and taking advantage of her good health and using her dramatic recovery to inform others about NPH. She gives presentations to local senior centers as a volunteer. “If this awareness can help one person avoid what my husband and I endured, ” Sorlie says, “then my efforts are worth it.”
24．Which of the following best describes Sorlie’s experience of seeking treatment
A．Tough. B．Inspiring. C．Unfair. D．Hopeful.
25．Why are most people with NPH incorrectly diagnosed
A．The doctors are not responsible and professional.
B．It is a rare disease that few cases have ever occurred.
C．The symptoms are similar to those of other common diseases.
D．The medical conditions in most cities are not advanced enough.
26．Why does Sorlie serve as a volunteer in local senior centers
A．To inform senior people about their health condition.
B．To provide suggestions on how to recover from NPH.
C．To raise peopled awareness about leading a healthy life.
D．To help people with NPH suffer less in getting correct diagnosis.
27．Where is the text probably from
A．A medical record. B．A biography.
C．A science report. D．A popular magazine.
C
Some people say that dogs are man’s best friend, loyal and loveable. In fact, they can be more than just a pet as certain breeds are excellent working dogs too. We know about the amazing help guide dogs give to blind people and, more recently, a new role has been found for the animals—working as therapy dogs in universities.
Research by Washington State University in the US, has found spending time with a dog can help stressed students. Patricia Pendry from the university told the BBC that a study of 300 undergraduates had found weekly hour-long sessions with dogs brought to the university by professional handlers had made stressed students at high risk of academic failure or dropping out “feel relaxed and accepted”. The dogs helped them to concentrate, learn and remember information.
The BBC’s education correspondent Sean Coughlan writes that around 1,000 campuses in the US already use therapy pets and it’s becoming more common in the UK. Fiona Suthers, head of clinical skills at the university, is in charge of the program. She says that five dogs have been introduced to her school after a strict assessment to ensure they had the right temper. But she adds “it’s hard to describe the impact of just having a dog lying down in the corner of a class.”
Student Union education officer Chloe Hutchinson told the BBC that “a lot of students have dogs at home and might be a bit homesick, especially around exam time when it is stressful and they just want their home comforts.” So if you’re a student who’s been working like a dog, but you still feel like you haven’t a dog’s chance in passing your exams, maybe introducing a four-legged friend into your life might be the help you need.
28．What benefit of dogs is not mentioned in the passage
A．They can be human’s companions. B．They can help students overcome mental illness.
C．They can help the blind. D．They can promote stressed students’ concentration.
29．What’s Fiona Suther’s attitude towards introducing dogs into a class
A．Unwilling B．Tolerant C．Positive D．Unsure
30．What does the underlined sentence mean
A．You have no advantage over other students. B．You have difficulty in passing the exams.
C．You don’t have a chance to have a dog. D．your dog doesn’t help you pass exams.
31．Where can you read this passage
A．In a popular magazine. B．In an education journal.
C．In a medicine advertisement. D．In a local guide book.
D
Pets can provide their owners with more than companionship. Being a pet owner was the third most common way that survey respondents said they met people in their neighborhoods. (No. 1 was by being neighbors. No. 2 was by using local streets and parks.) Pet owners were 60% more likely than non—pet owners to get to know people in their neighborhoods they hadn’t known before.
Dog owners, and more specifically, those who walked their dogs, were also far more likely to befriend someone they met through a pet related connection or getting social support from them. Dr. Frates, the medical editor of Get Healthy, Get a Dog, a Special Health Report from Harvard Medical School, has seen this firsthand. When she first adopted her dog. she started going to a local dog park in the mornings to meet up with about 15 other women and their dogs. While the dogs romped(玩耍), the women talked. Sometimes the relationships went no further than knowing someone is “Captain’s mom.” Other times they developed into true friendships.
Get Healthy, Get a Dog explores the many direct physical and mental health benefits of owning a dog. These include increased physical activity, which can help you lose or maintain weight; lowered blood pressure; and reduced stress. A study published last month in Science magazine showed that when a dog owner looked into his or her pet’s eyes, levels of oxytocin, the so-called“love hormone(荷尔蒙),” increased in both owner and pet, This helped further strengthen the bond between the two.
Pets may also indirectly improve health by fostering social connections, which are good for long-term health, An analysis of 148 studies on the topic found that people who have solid social networks are 50% more likely to live longer than those with limited social networks, In today’s go-it alone world, many people have trouble making connections. Pet ownership may be one way to meet and interact with others.
32．What is the most popular way of knowing the community
A．Becoming a pet owner. B．Dancing in the local parks.
C．Walking in the local streets. D．Communicating with neighbours.
33．Why is Dr. Frates’ experience of keeping a dog mentioned in Paragraph 2
A．To show Frates’ love for dogs.
B．To support the writer ’s opinion.
C．To remind readers of Frates’ wealth.
D．To prove the writer’s ability of making friends
34．What is the main idea of paragraph 3
A．Owning a dog can make dog owners’ stress less.
B．Owning a dog can benefit dog owners’ health directly.
C．Owning a dog can help lose weight and lower blood pressure.
D．Owning a dog can improve the health of dogs and dog owners.
35．What can we learn from the last paragraph
A．Pet owners will influence people around.
B．Owning pets is the very way to interact with others.
C．Owning pets may help improve health in the long run.
D．Pet owners have trouble communicating with others.

Parents can play a vital role in helping teens succeed in school by being informed and lending a little support. Even though teens are seeking independence, parental involvement is an important ingredient for academic success. 36．
Attend back-to-school night and parent-teacher conferences. Attending your school's back-to-school night is effective to get to know your teen's teachers and their expectations. School administrators may discuss policies that parents and guardians of teenagers need to know about. 37． Although in high school, staff usually set these up only when parental involvement is needed to address issues like behavior problems and poor academic performance.
Support homework expectations. During the high school years, homework gets more intense and grades become critical for college plans. Many teens are learning how to balance academics with extracurricular activities and social lives. 38． It means no phone, TV, or websites other than homework-related resources. Be sure to check in from time to time to make sure that your teen is attention-focusing.
39． A nutritious breakfast fuels up teens and gets them ready for the day. In general, teens who eat breakfast have more energy and do better in school. You can help boost your teen's attention span, concentration, and memory by providing breakfast foods that are rich in whole grains, fiber, and protein, as well as low in added sugar.
Make time to talk about school. Many teens spend so much of the day outside the home: at school, extracurricular activities, or with peers. 40． Still，you should make efforts to talk with your teen every day and he or she will know their parents are interested in their academic lives, and they’ll take school seriously as well and the challenges of high school can be easier to face.
A．Send your teen to school ready to learn.
B．Ensure your teen to have good living habits.
C．Attending parent-teacher conferences is another way to stay informed.
D．Here are several ways to keep your teen on track to succeed in high school.
E.But parents are still their anchors for providing love, guidance, and support.

At first, Dorothy Sorlie thought she was just getting old, though not as gracefully as she’d hoped. Retired from teaching English at a local college, Sorlie, then 74, began losing interest in things she'd enjoyed, including reading and cooking. She couldn’t concentrate. Her handwriting changed. The symptoms occurred so gradually that initially she wasn’t aware anything was happening.
Things kept getting worse. She started worrying that she might be developing early dementia (痴呆). The physical symptoms progressed too. Most worrisome, she began having trouble walking and started falling. Through it all, her doctors struggled to explain what was happening.
She and her husband, Jim Urness, were desperate for answers; It would take years before they got them. The doctors’ diagnoses (诊断), all incorrect, could account for one or two of Sorlie’s symptoms but not all of them, and none of the treatments seemed to help.
The couple traveled across the country looking for someone who could tell them what was wrong. However, one possible explanation for her symptoms after another proved incorrect. At last, Sorlie’s primary care doctor，Kevin Wergeland found the disease responsible for all her symptoms was a little-known condition called normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH). Although her condition was detected at an advanced state, it was treatable.
In fact, NPH is sometimes referred to as “treatable dementia”. It is an insidious (潜伏的) and mysterious disorder that can copy many more common problems including Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. An estimated 700000 people in the United States have NPH, although ifs believed that fewer than 20 percent of them are correctly diagnosed.
Sorlie is now free of NPH symptoms, and taking advantage of her good health and using her dramatic recovery to inform others about NPH. She gives presentations to local senior centers as a volunteer. “If this awareness can help one person avoid what my husband and I endured, ” Sorlie says, “then my efforts are worth it.”
24．Which of the following best describes Sorlie’s experience of seeking treatment
A．Tough. B．Inspiring. C．Unfair. D．Hopeful.
25．Why are most people with NPH incorrectly diagnosed
A．The doctors are not responsible and professional.

C．The symptoms are similar to those of other common diseases.
D．The medical conditions in most cities are not advanced enough.
26．Why does Sorlie serve as a volunteer in local senior centers
A．To inform senior people about their health condition.
B．To provide suggestions on how to recover from NPH.
C．To raise peopled awareness about leading a healthy life.
D．To help people with NPH suffer less in getting correct diagnosis.

Some people say that dogs are man’s best friend, loyal and loveable. In fact, they can be more than just a pet as certain breeds are excellent working dogs too. We know about the amazing help guide dogs give to blind people and, more recently, a new role has been found for the animals—working as therapy dogs in universities.
Research by Washington State University in the US, has found spending time with a dog can help stressed students. Patricia Pendry from the university told the BBC that a study of 300 undergraduates had found weekly hour-long sessions with dogs brought to the university by professional handlers had made stressed students at high risk of academic failure or dropping out “feel relaxed and accepted”. The dogs helped them to concentrate, learn and remember information.
The BBC’s education correspondent Sean Coughlan writes that around 1,000 campuses in the US already use therapy pets and it’s becoming more common in the UK. Fiona Suthers, head of clinical skills at the university, is in charge of the program. She says that five dogs have been introduced to her school after a strict assessment to ensure they had the right temper. But she adds “it’s hard to describe the impact of just having a dog lying down in the corner of a class.”
Student Union education officer Chloe Hutchinson told the BBC that “a lot of students have dogs at home and might be a bit homesick, especially around exam time when it is stressful and they just want their home comforts.” So if you’re a student who’s been working like a dog, but you still feel like you haven’t a dog’s chance in passing your exams, maybe introducing a four-legged friend into your life might be the help you need.
28．What benefit of dogs is not mentioned in the passage
A．They can be human’s companions. B．They can help students overcome mental illness.
C．They can help the blind. D．They can promote stressed students’ concentration.
29．What’s Fiona Suther’s attitude towards introducing dogs into a class
A．Unwilling B．Tolerant C．Positive D．Unsure
30．What does the underlined sentence mean
A．You have no advantage over other students. B．You have difficulty in passing the exams.
C．You don’t have a chance to have a dog. D．your dog doesn’t help you pass exams.
31．Where can you read this passage
A．In a popular magazine. B．In an education journal.
C．In a medicine advertisement. D．In a local guide book.

Pets can provide their owners with more than companionship. Being a pet owner was the third most common way that survey respondents said they met people in their neighborhoods. (No. 1 was by being neighbors. No. 2 was by using local streets and parks.) Pet owners were 60% more likely than non—pet owners to get to know people in their neighborhoods they hadn’t known before.
Dog owners, and more specifically, those who walked their dogs, were also far more likely to befriend someone they met through a pet related connection or getting social support from them. Dr. Frates, the medical editor of Get Healthy, Get a Dog, a Special Health Report from Harvard Medical School, has seen this firsthand. When she first adopted her dog. she started going to a local dog park in the mornings to meet up with about 15 other women and their dogs. While the dogs romped(玩耍), the women talked. Sometimes the relationships went no further than knowing someone is “Captain’s mom.” Other times they developed into true friendships.
Get Healthy, Get a Dog explores the many direct physical and mental health benefits of owning a dog. These include increased physical activity, which can help you lose or maintain weight; lowered blood pressure; and reduced stress. A study published last month in Science magazine showed that when a dog owner looked into his or her pet’s eyes, levels of oxytocin, the so-called“love hormone(荷尔蒙),” increased in both owner and pet, This helped further strengthen the bond between the two.
Pets may also indirectly improve health by fostering social connections, which are good for long-term health, An analysis of 148 studies on the topic found that people who have solid social networks are 50% more likely to live longer than those with limited social networks, In today’s go-it alone world, many people have trouble making connections. Pet ownership may be one way to meet and interact with others.
32．What is the most popular way of knowing the community
A．Becoming a pet owner. B．Dancing in the local parks.
C．Walking in the local streets. D．Communicating with neighbours.
33．Why is Dr. Frates’ experience of keeping a dog mentioned in Paragraph 2
A．To show Frates’ love for dogs.
B．To support the writer ’s opinion.
C．To remind readers of Frates’ wealth.
D．To prove the writer’s ability of making friends
34．What is the main idea of paragraph 3
A．Owning a dog can make dog owners’ stress less.
B．Owning a dog can benefit dog owners’ health directly.
C．Owning a dog can help lose weight and lower blood pressure.
D．Owning a dog can improve the health of dogs and dog owners.
35．What can we learn from the last paragraph
A．Pet owners will influence people around.
B．Owning pets is the very way to interact with others.
C．Owning pets may help improve health in the long run.
D．Pet owners have trouble communicating with others.

Dear Jim,
How are you doing I’m writing to invite you to visit a handicrafts exhibition in our school, whose theme is “Creation Brightens Life”.
The exhibition aims to enrich our school life and promote our creativity and hands-on ability. It is scheduled to be held in the lecture hall from May 15th to June 1st. Dozens of handicrafts with unique designs and various themes will be on display, such as clay sculptures, paper cuttings and so on. They are all made by students. Many works are made from unwanted materials in our daily life, which shows how students turn waste into treasure. I’m sure you will be amazed at the students’ creativity and imagination.
Would you like to come I’m looking forward to meeting you at the exhibition.
Yours,
Li Hua
