阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
When we are young we are taught that it’s wrong to lie and we should always tell the truth. Unfortunately, most children lie even if they’re told not to. Research carried out at the Institute of Child Study at Toronto University has shown that this might not be such a bad thing. Obviously, children who tell lies when they’re two years old have a good chance of becoming successful adults.
According to the research, at the age of two, 20 per cent of children lie. At the age of three, 50 per cent lie, and at four almost 90 per cent lie. By the age of 12 almost every child tells lies.
Lying needs much brain work, and the better the lie is, the more work the brain has to do. By training the brain early, researchers believe children will be able to think more clearly when they are adults.
Recent research, carried out by the Science Museum in London, has shown some interesting facts about the way we lie as adults. According to the research, the average British man tells three lies every day; that’s over 1,000 lies a year. However, the average woman apparently only lies twice a day.
Most people think women are better liars(说谎者)than men although in fact they tell fewer lies. Popular women’s lies include “Nothing’s wrong, I’m fine”, “I don’t know where it is, I haven’t touched it”, and “It wasn’t that expensive”.
Some people say you can lie as long as it’s a white lie. A white lie is a lie told to avoid hurting someone’s feelings. One of the most common lies for both men and women is “It’s just what I’ve always wanted”, said after opening a present from their partner.
1. What will happen to young children who lie
A. They will probably do wrong later.
B. They may have a good chance of losing others’ trust.
C. They will keep lying when they grow up.
D. They’re likely to succeed in the future.
2. What do the numbers in Paragraph 2 show about children
A. Older children tell bigger lies than younger ones.
B. It’s quite natural for them to tell lies.
C. As they grow, they often lie about their age.
D. The older they are, the more likely they lie.
3. What did the research by the Science Museum find out
A. Men lie more than women.
B. Women are better liars than men.
C. Women’s lies are usually not serious.
D. Men sometimes have to lie to women.
4. What’s the true feeling behind the underlined part in the last paragraph
A. You know me so well.
B. I don’t like the present.
C. You are so good at picking presents.
D. I haven’t received a present I like most.
B
Baggy has become the first dog in the UK—and potentially the world—to join the fight against air pollution by recording pollutant levels near the ground.
Baggy wears a pollution monitor on her collar so she can take data measurements close to the ground. Her monitor has shown that air pollution levels are higher closer to ground level, which has helped highlight concerns that babies and young kids may be at higher risk of developing lung problems.
Conventional air pollution monitors are normally fixed on lampposts at about nine feet in the air. However, since Baggy stands at about the same height as a child in a pushchair(婴儿车), she frequently records pollution levels which are much higher than the data gathered by the Environment Agency.
The doggy data research was the idea of Baggy’s 13-year-old owner Tom Hunt and his dad Matt. The English youngster noticed that pollution levels are around two-thirds higher close to the ground than they are in the air at the height where they are recorded by the agency. Tom has since reported the shocking findings to the government in an attempt to emphasize that babies are at higher risk of developing asthma(哮喘).
Matt Hunt said he was “very proud” of his son because “when the boy gets an idea, he keeps his head down and gets on with it, and he really does want to do some good and stop young kids from getting asthma.”
“Tom built up a passion for environmental protection at a very early age,” Matt added. “He became very interested in gadgets(小装置). About one year ago, he got this new piece of tech which is like a test tube. One Sunday afternoon, we went out to do some monitoring, and he said, ‘why don’t we put it on Bagge’s collar and let her monitor the pollution ’ So we did it.”
Tom said, “Most of the time, Baggy is just like any other dog. But for the rest of the time she is a super dog, and we are all ready proud of her.”
5. With a monitor on her collar, Baggy can ______.
A. take pollutant readings B. record pollutant levels
C. process collected data D. reduce air pollution
6. What can we learn from the Baggy data
A. High places are free of air pollution.
B. Higher pushchairs are more risky for kids.
C. Conventional monitors are more reliable.
D. Air is more polluted closer to the ground.
7. What is Tom’s purpose of doing the research
A. To warn of a health risk. B. To find out pollution sources.
C. To test his new monitor. D. To prove Baggy’s abilities.
8. According to the passage, which word can best describe Tom Hunt
A. Modest. B. Generous. C. Creative. D. Outgoing.
