[辽宁省实验中学2022高二期中]While every dog owner knows their dogs can read their moods perfectly, scientists have always been a little doubtful.Now thanks to some researchers at the University of Veterinary Medicine in Vienna, Austria, we finally have some convincing evidence.
For their study, biologist Corson Miller and his team exposed eleven selected dogs to digital images of women that were either angry or happy.Half the dogs were rewarded for touching the screen when shown a happy face, while the other half got their treat for selecting those that appeared angry.
Interestingly, although the scientists believe humans show their emotions on their entire face, the dogs were not provided with the entire one.Some dogs were shown only upper halves while the others observed lower halves.After some training like how to recognise small differences like the wrinkles between the eyes or the changes in their shape that accompany the happy or angry expressions, the dogs were mostly able to identify the correct expression not only on a familiar face but on a strange face.The researchers concluded the dogs were smart enough to read human emotions.

They also found those being trained to read angry expressions took a longer time to learn.They guessed it may be because dogs found angry faces disgusting, causing them to withdraw quickly.However, once the smart dogs realised they were getting rewarded, the trepidation seemed to disappear.In fact, the dogs had such a good time playing the computer “game” that scientists had a hard time keeping them away from the touch screens after the study was completed.
The researchers also noticed only dogs with a male owner had a harder time understanding the expressions correctly.Since the touch screen models were all females, this confirmed what had been observed in previous studies—dogs are more efficient at reading facial expressions of people that are the same gender as their owner.

【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项研究发现——狗能识别人的面部表情变化。
答案及解析
1.D 细节理解题。根据第二段中的For their study, biologist Corson Miller and his team exposed eleven selected dogs to digital images of women that were either angry or happy.可知,科学家们是通过向狗展示女性愤怒或高兴的数码照片进行这项实验的。故选D项。
2.What does the underlined word “trepidation” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A.Fear and anxiety. B.Curiosity and eagerness.
C.Excitement and happiness. D.Doubt and sadness.
答案及解析
2.A 词义猜测题。根据第四段中的They guessed it may be because dogs found angry faces disgusting, causing them to withdraw quickly.However, once the smart dogs realised they were getting rewarded, the trepidation seemed to disappear.可知,生气的面孔会使狗感到厌恶从而立即远离。画线词所在的句子中However表示转折。由此可知,该句的意思是:然而,一旦聪明的狗意识到它们得到了奖励,恐惧似乎就消失了。故选A项。

3.C 推理判断题。根据最后一段可知,主人是男性的狗很难辨别实验中的女性面部表情模型,狗只能更高效地辨别与它们主人同性别的人的面部表情。由此推知,主人为女性的狗很难辨别男性的面部表情。故选C项。

1.G 第一段第二句提到You should know that this habit is bad for your hearing,且第一段通过询问是否有在大音量下听音乐的习惯展开下文,下文应提到一些不好的习惯;同时第二段提到Over 1 billion young people are at risk of hearing loss due to listening to loud noises for long periods of time,由此判断下文中应提到具体的伤害听力的行为。G项(在大音量下听音乐或观看电视节目会伤害你的听力)符合语境,其中Listening to music or watching a TV show at loud volume都是损害听力的行为。故选G项。
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了在大音量下听音乐对听力有害。世界卫生组织称超过10亿的年轻人有听力丧失的风险,因为他们长时间在大音量下听音乐。长时间听大音量的声音可能会造成听毛细胞的死亡,这就是人们听力丧失的原因。

The United Nations has standards of safe listening.It is not safe to listen to sounds that are louder than 85 decibels (dB, 分贝) for eight hours or 100 dB for 15 minutes.The sound of a busy road is about 85 dB and the sound of a rock concert can be about 100 dB.
__2__ Most of us are born with about 16,000 hair cells (听毛细胞) in our inner ears.These cells detect sounds.However, listening to loud noises for a long time can make these cells work too hard and cause some of them to die.__3__

2.C 该空需选择一句段首总起句。根据空后的Most of us are born with about 16,000 hair cells in our inner ears.These cells… cause some of them to die.可知,本段主要介绍大音量对内耳的伤害。C项(大的声音对内耳有伤害)符合语境,其中the inner ear与下文呼应。故选C项。
答案及解析
【答案】C.Loud noises are harmful to the inner ear.
【答案】A.This is what causes hearing loss.
3.A 该空需选择一句段尾总结句。上文listening to loud noises for a long time can make these cells work too hard and cause some of them to die提到了听毛细胞死亡的原因,A项(这就是导致听力丧失的原因)符合语境,其中hearing loss是关键,与上文构成明显的因果关系。故选A项。
Some people might think that their music isn't all that loud.__4__ For example, if you are in a noisy place like the subway, you might turn up your music too loud without realising it.Later, when you listen to it at the same volume in a quiet place, it may sound uncomfortably loud.
WHO said the “safe level” for most sound is below 80 decibels for up to 40 hours a week.__5__

答案及解析
【答案】B.But this can depend on where you are.
4.B 该段首句提到Some people might think that their music isn't all that loud.,并在下文列举了两个地点subway和a quiet place说明在不同的地方听相同音量的音乐给人的感觉有所不同。B项(但这取决于你所在的地方)符合语境,其中But与上文构成转折关系,且该选项中的where you are呼应下文中的两个地点。故选B项。
5.E 根据最后一段第一句WHO said the “safe level” for most sound is below 80 decibels for up to 40 hours a week.可知,E项(80分贝的音量水平大致相当于地铁的声音)符合语境,其中A level of 80 decibels与上文中提到的80 decibels呼应,且E项是对上文“safe level”的解释说明。故选E项。
【答案】E.A level of 80 decibels is roughly equal to the noise of a subway.

Birdsong
“Nothing will ever be the same again, ” Ally whispered.She sank slowly into her father’s favourite chair and stared at the small American flag on his desk.It was the flag which Chief Russell had given to her after the funeral (葬礼) last summer, when he hugged her and told her how proud the Police Department was of her dad's work for them.His tears had warmed Ally's cheeks, and her own tears were still frozen inside her heart.
Ally looked at her father’s picture on the bookcase.Dad was sitting in the middle of a stream, wet through but grinning proudly.“I miss you, Dad, ” she said softly.By this time last year she had already taken dozens of pictures.Ever since she could remember, she and Dad had been a team, searching the woods behind the house each weekend for a glimpse of the special wood warbler (林莺).
Ally reached for the first photo album she and Dad put together.On the cover a tiny orange bird with blue grey wings and sharp black eyes peered out of the photo her father had clipped from a local newspaper.Ally smiled, remembering the excited look on his face when he first showed her the pretty bird, “Ally, I bet if we search real hard, we’ll see this little guy together some day.”

Familiar smells of the earth rose up to greet her.Some things never change, Ally thought.Quickening her pace, she hurried to the rock by the stream where she and her father used to sit and eat lunch.She sat on it, with her face towards the sun.In the sky overhead there were birds busily diving to gather dried grass to place in their nests.Their sweet songs echoed through the woods.Ally felt content for the first time in a long while.She could almost hear her father's laughter in the gentle breeze as she listened to the sweet song of the special bird.All too soon, the sun disappeared behind thick grey clouds.
Determined to start out again the next morning, she was about to head home when ringing birdsong floated down to her.It was prettier than any she had heard before.An excited feeling bubbled up inside Ally as she searched the sky for the special bird.A flash of orange dived and rested on a nearby branch.For a moment Ally couldn't believe her eyes, but it was true.The tiny wood warbler just sat there, looking around, as if it were waiting for something.Ally blinked back tears.“Thanks, Dad,” she whispered slowly lifting her camera and taking careful aim.“Things will be different without you.I'll always miss our time together, but I feel better now.”
