A.respect B.moment C.comfort D.fortune
8.C

A.come B.comes C.is coming D.are coming

10．I like swimming, while what my brother enjoys _________.
A.playing basketball B.to play basketball
C.plays basketball D.is playing basketball
10.D
【解析】考查主谓一致。“what ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )my brother enjoys ”作主语，是一个主语从句，表示“我兄弟喜欢的事情”，相当于“the thing that my brother enjoys”，所以后面要用谓语is 。
11．No one in the dep ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )artment but Tom and I___________ that the director is going to resign．
A.know B.am to know C.knows D.have known
11.C

A.agent B.attitude C.substitute D.Institute
14.C
【解析】考查名词词义辨析。句意：那天晚 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )上领衔歌手生病无法演出，她的替补表现得也不好，这让观众很失望。 substitute意为“替换者；替补”，符合句意。attitude意为“态度”， institute意为“学会，协会；学院”， altitude意为“高度；海拔”。
15．He has donated s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ome money to those who________ in poverty, which _______ of great help.
A.live, are B.lives, are C.live, is D.lives, is
15.C
【解析】考查主谓一致的用法。先行词tho ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )se是复数概念，所以定语从句引导词who此时是复数概念。Which引导的定语从句的先行词是前面整个主句所代表的意义，故看做单数。
二、完形填空：共20题 每题2分 共40分
Thanks to medical and ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )drug research, there are thousands of drugs that help people. Medicines can cure, slow, or prevent disease, 16 us to lead healthier and happier lives. But there are also lots of 17 , harmful drugs that people take to help them feel 18 or have a good time.21教育网
How do drugs work ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Drugs are chemicals or substances that change the 19 our bodies work. When you put them into your body (often by swallowing, inhaling, or injecting them), drugs find their way 20 your bloodstream and are transported to 21 of your body, such as your brain. In the brain, drugs may either intensify or dull your 22 , alter your sense of alertness, and sometimes decrease physical 23 . A drug may be helpful or harmful. The effects of drugs can vary 24 upon the kind of drug taken, how much is taken, how often it is used, how quickly it gets to the brain, and what other drugs, food, or substances are taken at the same time. Effects can also vary 25 on the differences in body size, shape, and chemistry.
Although substances ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) can feel good at first, they can ultimately 26 a lot of harm to the body and brain. Drinking alcohol, smoking tobacco, taking illegal drugs, and sniffing glue can all cause serious 27 to the human body. Some drugs 28 impair a person's ability to make healthy choices and decisions. Teens who drink, for example, are more likely to get 29 in dangerous situations.
People take drugs ju ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )st for the 30 they believe they can 31 . Often it's because someone tried to convince them that drugs would make them feel good or that they'd have a better time if they 32 them. The truth is, drugs don't solve problems. Drugs simply 33 feelings and problems. When a drug 34 off, the feelings and problems remain --- or become 35 . Drugs can ruin every aspect of a person's life.

18．A.good B.well C.bad D.badly
18．A
【解析】考查形容词。根据前面的一句 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )话“Medicines can cure…. happier lives”我们可以看出，这里两句话形成了对比，即有的药品有能治疗疾病等好处，而也有许多“非法的”、“有害的”药品让人感到“兴奋”、玩得特别开心。所以此时feel是连系动词。
19．A.manner B.manners C.means D.way
19．D
【解析】考查名词。根据后面的定语从句 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )“our bodies work”我们可以看出，这个句子的引导词省略了，而且work是不及物动词，符合这个用法的只有way这个词。

32．C
【解析】考查动词。这句话中convince ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )后面的宾语从句“that drugs would make them feel good….if they…”是由一个含有虚拟条件句的主从复合句构成。这个句子表示的是对现在的情况的虚拟，所以应该用took。
33．A.clear B.hide C.come D.provide
33．B
【解析】考查动词。这句话的意思是“毒品只是(simply)遮掩(hide)了(人们的)感觉和(存在的)问题”。

三、阅读理解：共20题 每题2分 共40分
A
In a class this past D ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ecember, after I wrote some directions on the board for students about their final examination, one young woman quickly took a picture of the board using her smart phone. When I looked in her direction, she apologized: “Sorry. Was it wrong to take a picture ”
“I can’t read ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )my own handwriting ,”the young woman explained.“It’s best if I take a picture of your writing so I can understand the notes.”
That remark star ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ted a class-wide conversation about taking a picture instead of taking notes. For those in the photo-taking camp, motivations extended beyond their inability to comprehend their own handwriting. Some took pictures of notes because they knew their phone was a safe place to store material. They might lose paper, they reasoned, but they wouldn’t lose their phones. Some took photos because they wanted to record exactly the manner in which I had noted information on the board. Others told me that during class they liked to be able to listen to the discussion attentively.
Yet the use of camera ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s as note takers, though it may be convenient, does raise significant questions for the classroom. Is a picture an effective replacement for the process of note-taking
Instructors encoura ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ge students to take notes because the act of doing so is more than merely recording necessary information—it helps prepare the way for understanding. Encouraging students to take notes may be an old-fashioned instructional method, but just because a method has a long history doesn’t mean it’s out of date. Writing things down engages a student’s brain in listening, visual, and kinesthetic(触觉的)learning—a view supported by a longstanding research. The act of writing down information enables a person to begin committing it to memory, and to process and combine it, establishing the building blocks of learning new concepts.
Taking a picture ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )does indeed record the information, but it deletes some of the necessary mental engagement that taking notes employs. So can the two be equally effective
I’m not sure how ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) to measure the effectiveness of either method. For now, I allow students to take notes however they see fit—handwritten or photographed—because I figure that some notes, no matter the method of note-taking, are better than none.
36．The woman apologized in the class because she____.
A.took a picture of the board B.missed the teachers’ directions
C.had the bad handwriting D.disturbed other students’ learning
36．A
【解析】细节理解题。由那个女士说的话可知，答案为A。
37．Students refuse to take notes by hand because_____.
A.they are unable to take notes
B.they are more likely to lose notes
C.they are interested in using their phones
D.they have a good memory of teachers’ instructions
37．B
【解析】细节理解题。由文章第三段中的“They might lose paper, they reasoned”可知选B。2·1·c·n·j·y
38．According to the passage, taking notes by hand_______.
A.requires students to think independently
B.is unsuitable for students to learn new ideas
C.helps students actively participate in learning
D.proves to be an old and useless learning method
38．C
【解析】推理判断题。由文中的“Writ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ing things down engages a student’s brain in listening, visual, and kinesthetic(触觉的)learning—a view supported by a longstanding research.”可知，记笔记可以帮助学生更积极地参与到学习中去，选C。
39．What’s the author’s opinion towards taking notes by phones
A.Supportive. B.Neutral. C.Doubtful. D.Disapproving.
39．B
【解析】观点态度题。由文章最后一段第一句可知，作者也不确定哪种方法更有效，由此可知，作者对此持中立的态度，故选B。
B
It is love that m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )akes the world go round. And it is also love that has such power to overcome all difficulties. So we say: “Love will find a way.” As smile is a facial expression showing pleasure, affection, and friendliness, it is the commonest way to show our good will perfectly without saying anything. A Chinese saying runs: “never hit a person who is smiling at you.” It is a time-proven fact that the smile is a language all its own— a universal language—understood by the people of every nation in the world. We may not speak the same tongue as our foreign neighbors, but we smile in the same tongue. We need no interpreter for thus expressing love, happiness, or good will.
One day while shop ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ping in a small town in southern California, it was my misfortune to be approached by a clerk whose personality contradicted mine. He seemed most unfriendly and not at all concerned about my intended purchase. I bought nothing, and marched angrily out of the store. My anger toward that grew with each step. Outside, standing at the corner, was a dark-complexion young man in his early twenties. His expressive brown eyes met and held mine, and in the next instant a beautiful, dazzling smile covered his face. I gave in immediately. The magnetic power of that shining smile drove away all bitterness within me, and I found the muscles in my own face happily responding. “Beautiful day, isn’t it ” I remarked, in passing. Then, suddenly something inside me sent me turning back. “I really owe you a debt of gratitude,” I said softly. His smile deepened, but he made no attempt to answer. A Mexican woman and two men were standing nearby. The woman stepped forward and eyed me inquiringly. “Carlos, he no speak English,” she volunteered. “You want I should tell him something ” In that moment I felt transformed. Carlos’ smile had made a big person of me. My friendliness and good will toward all mankind stood ten feet tall. “Yes,” my reply was enthusiastic and sincere, “tell him I said ‘Thank you!’” “Thank you ” The woman seemed slightly puzzled. I gave her arm a friendly pat as I turned to leave. “Just tell him that,” I insisted. “He’ll understand. I am sure!” Oh, what a smile can do! Although I have never seen that young man again, I shall never forget the lesson he taught me that morning.
From that day on, I became smile – conscious, and I practice that diligently, anywhere and everywhere, with everybody. When I got excited in traffic, taking the right–of–way (公路用地) from the other car with my stupid mistake, I’d smile and shrug my shoulders apologetically. This action on my part would always draw a good–natured smile in return. If the other fellow was at fault – and if I could remember my resolution in time! – he’d get a broad smile of understanding. This took a bit of doing at first. I’ll admit it wasn’t always easy, but it was fun. The results were sometimes amazing. Many times, a broad, friendly smile would completely turn aside ill–feeling and tension. I’m wondering now how many tragic accidents could be avoided on our overcrowded highways, if every driver remembered to smile!
40．The author got angry while shopping one day because .
A.of the clerk’s unfriendliness and lack of concern
B.of her misfortune
C.she failed to purchase what she intended

D.was familiar with the young man
41．C
【解析】推理判断题。由文中的那位女士说的话可推知，她会说一些英语，由“she volunteered…”可推知，她乐于助人，故选C。

C
It must have been ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) around nine O’clock when I drove back home from work because it was already dark. As I came near to the gates I turned off the headlamps of the car so as to prevent the beam(光) from swinging(摇摆)in through the window and waking Jack, who shared the house with me. But needn’t have done so, I noticed that his light was still on, so he was awake anyway--- unless he had fallen asleep while reading. I put the car away and went up the steps, Then I opened the door quietly and went to Jack’s room. He was in bed awake but he didn’t even turn towards me.
“What’s up, Jack ” I said.
“For God’s sake(看在上帝面上), don’t make a noise,” he said.
The way he spoke ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) reminded me of someone in pain who is afraid to talk in case he does himself a serious injury(伤害).
“Take your shoes off, Neville,” Jack said.
I thought that he ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) must be ill and that I had better humour (迁就)him to keep him happy, “There’s a snake here” he explained, “It’s asleep between the sheets. I was lying on my back reading when I saw it. I knew that moving was out of the question. I couldn’t have moved even if I’d wanted to .” I realized that he was serious. “I was relying on you to call a doctor as soon as you came home.” Jack went on.” It hasn’t bitten me yet but I daren’t do anything to upset it. It might wake up. I’m sick of this,” he said, “I took it for granted that you would have come home an hour ago.”
There was no ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )time to argue or apologize for being late. I looked at him as encouragingly as I could and went out to telephone the doctor.

46．The reason why ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Neville thought that Jack must be ill is that Jack _______.
A.asked Neville to take off his shoes
B.made a gesture to show the presence of the snake

47．B

D
BUDAPEST, HUNGARY ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )–- At Eotvos Lorand University's Department of Ethnology, visitors are usually greeted not by a security guard, but by a delegation of friendly mongrels, tails wagging. Dogs have the run of the place. They play in classrooms, visit faculty members in their offices, or nap in the laboratories. Animals here are no surprise --- ethnology is the zoological study of animal behavior --- but the total lack of cages is. 21*cnjy*com
“If you were studyi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ng human behavior, you wouldn’t keep your subjects in a cage for 20 years and then ask them some questions.” asks research fellow Adam Miklosi, who leads much of the research here into the cognitive abilities of man's best friend.
Until recently, dome ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )stication was thought to have dulled dogs’ intelligence. Studies in the early 1980s showed that wolves, from which dogs probably descended, can unlock a gate after watching a human do it once, while dogs remained stumped after watching repeatedly.
Two years ago, some ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) graduate students were given either a puppy or a wolf cub to raise. They fed the animals by hand, coddling and doting on them. At five weeks, each cub was placed in a room containing an adult and the student who had raised the cub. Both sat motionless. But while the wolf cubs merely sniffed both humans before climbing into the student's lap to sleep, the puppies yipped at their caregivers, licking their hands and trying to establish contact.
Three months later, th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e canines were given the opportunity to try to remove a piece of meat from under a cage by pulling on a rope in the presence of their caregiver. Dogs and wolves both mastered this promptly. Then the rope was anchored, making it impossible to obtain the meat. The dogs tried a couple of times, and then turned to their masters for assistance or cues. The wolves ignored their caregivers, yanking on the rope until exhausted.
Dogs are very m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )otivated to cooperate with and behave like people. That's why dogs can do things no other animal can do.
48．What is ethnology according to the article
A.It is a science on the research into nature.
B.It is a branch of social science.
C.It is the zoological study of animal behaviors.
D.It is the study of the behaviors of living things.

Obese American ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s are increasingly proving too fat to fit into scanners or their fat gets in the way of X-rays and ultrasounds, according to a study. Researchers found that the number of patients who had inconclusive test results had doubled over 15 years.
Dr Raul Uppot an ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d his team analyzed all the radiology examinations performed at a Massachusetts hospital between 1989 and 2003, looking for records labeled “limited by body habitus” --- meaning the patient's size hampered the quality of the test. They found that while 0.10 per cent of inconclusive exams were due to patient size in 1989, the figure had climbed to 0.19 per cent by 2003, despite advances in technology. It is estimated that 66 per cent of adults in the US are overweight, obese or morbidly obese, while there are 12.5 million overweight children and adolescents. The team said CT and MRI scans could cause problems for obese patients because there were weight limitations on the imaging table and the size of the opening on the imager could be too small for them to get in.
Ultrasound beams a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nd X-rays can also be hindered by fat and fail to produce clear pictures of the organs being examined. Standard CT tables in the US can take patients weighing up to 450lbs, while MRI machines can usually obtain diagnostic-quality images in patients weighing up to 350lbs. The team, writing in the journal Radiology, warned that incomplete examinations because of obesity could have serious consequences, such as misdiagnosis or the failure to find a diagnosis at all.
Dr Uppot, a staff ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )radiologist at MGH, said: “Americans need to know that obesity can hinder their medical care when they enter a hospital.” He added: “In the short term, the medical community must accommodate these patients by investing in technology to help them. In the long term, this country must make cultural shifts that promote more exercise and a healthier diet.”21cnjy.com
52．The article mainly tells us that ____.
A.American patients hate the X-rays.
B.American patients like to be examined by X-rays. 【出处：21教育名师】
C.American patien ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ts’ sizes hamper the quality of the radiology examinations.

【解析】主旨大意题。由第一段中的“O ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )bese Americans are increasingly proving too fat to fit into scanners or their fat gets in the way of X-rays and ultrasounds”可知。
53．Why can CT and MKI scans cause problems for the obese patients
A.Because the obe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )se patients are too wide to get in the rooms where the scanners are laid.
B.Because there are weight limitations on the imaging table.
C.Because th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e size of the opening on the imager can be too small for them to get in.
D.Both B and C
53．D

However, whether ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )you prefer a car or a bike depends on where you live and what your habit is. But to me, I like bike better. It is cheaper than a car. And it can bring me more convenience. What’s more, it doesn’t pollute the environment, while cars give off too much fume which may do harm to the air. So bikes are really good friends of people.

Thanks to medical and ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )drug research, there are thousands of drugs that help people. Medicines can cure, slow, or prevent disease, 16 us to lead healthier and happier lives. But there are also lots of 17 , harmful drugs that people take to help them feel 18 or have a good time.21教育网
How do drugs work ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Drugs are chemicals or substances that change the 19 our bodies work. When you put them into your body (often by swallowing, inhaling, or injecting them), drugs find their way 20 your bloodstream and are transported to 21 of your body, such as your brain. In the brain, drugs may either intensify or dull your 22 , alter your sense of alertness, and sometimes decrease physical 23 . A drug may be helpful or harmful. The effects of drugs can vary 24 upon the kind of drug taken, how much is taken, how often it is used, how quickly it gets to the brain, and what other drugs, food, or substances are taken at the same time. Effects can also vary 25 on the differences in body size, shape, and chemistry.
Although substances ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) can feel good at first, they can ultimately 26 a lot of harm to the body and brain. Drinking alcohol, smoking tobacco, taking illegal drugs, and sniffing glue can all cause serious 27 to the human body. Some drugs 28 impair a person's ability to make healthy choices and decisions. Teens who drink, for example, are more likely to get 29 in dangerous situations.
People take drugs ju ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )st for the 30 they believe they can 31 . Often it's because someone tried to convince them that drugs would make them feel good or that they'd have a better time if they 32 them. The truth is, drugs don't solve problems. Drugs simply 33 feelings and problems. When a drug 34 off, the feelings and problems remain --- or become 35 . Drugs can ruin every aspect of a person's life.

18．A.good B.well C.bad D.badly
18．A
【解析】考查形容词。根据前面的一句 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )话“Medicines can cure…. happier lives”我们可以看出，这里两句话形成了对比，即有的药品有能治疗疾病等好处，而也有许多“非法的”、“有害的”药品让人感到“兴奋”、玩得特别开心。所以此时feel是连系动词。
19．A.manner B.manners C.means D.way
19．D
【解析】考查名词。根据后面的定语从句 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )“our bodies work”我们可以看出，这个句子的引导词省略了，而且work是不及物动词，符合这个用法的只有way这个词。

【解析】考查副词。seve ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rely意思是“严厉地”、“严重地”。这句话的意思是“一些毒品将严重地(severely)削弱(impair)一个人做出正确(healthy)选择和决定的能力”。

【解析】考查动词。bring指“带来”。这句话的意思是“人们吸食毒品只是为了获取他们认为毒品(第二个they)能带来的乐趣”。21·世纪*教育网
32．A.take B.taking C.took D.taken
32．C
【解析】考查动词。这句话中convince ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )后面的宾语从句“that drugs would make them feel good….if they…”是由一个含有虚拟条件句的主从复合句构成。这个句子表示的是对现在的情况的虚拟，所以应该用took。
33．A.clear B.hide C.come D.provide
33．B
【解析】考查动词。这句话的意思是“毒品只是(simply)遮掩(hide)了(人们的)感觉和(存在的)问题”。

35．A.bad B.badly C.worst D.worse
35．D
【解析】考查形容词。根据上一题的分析可知。
三、阅读理解：共20题 每题2分 共40分
A
In a class this past D ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ecember, after I wrote some directions on the board for students about their final examination, one young woman quickly took a picture of the board using her smart phone. When I looked in her direction, she apologized: “Sorry. Was it wrong to take a picture ”
“I can’t read ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )my own handwriting ,”the young woman explained.“It’s best if I take a picture of your writing so I can understand the notes.”
That remark star ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ted a class-wide conversation about taking a picture instead of taking notes. For those in the photo-taking camp, motivations extended beyond their inability to comprehend their own handwriting. Some took pictures of notes because they knew their phone was a safe place to store material. They might lose paper, they reasoned, but they wouldn’t lose their phones. Some took photos because they wanted to record exactly the manner in which I had noted information on the board. Others told me that during class they liked to be able to listen to the discussion attentively.
Yet the use of camera ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s as note takers, though it may be convenient, does raise significant questions for the classroom. Is a picture an effective replacement for the process of note-taking
Instructors encoura ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ge students to take notes because the act of doing so is more than merely recording necessary information—it helps prepare the way for understanding. Encouraging students to take notes may be an old-fashioned instructional method, but just because a method has a long history doesn’t mean it’s out of date. Writing things down engages a student’s brain in listening, visual, and kinesthetic(触觉的)learning—a view supported by a longstanding research. The act of writing down information enables a person to begin committing it to memory, and to process and combine it, establishing the building blocks of learning new concepts.
Taking a picture ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )does indeed record the information, but it deletes some of the necessary mental engagement that taking notes employs. So can the two be equally effective
I’m not sure how ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) to measure the effectiveness of either method. For now, I allow students to take notes however they see fit—handwritten or photographed—because I figure that some notes, no matter the method of note-taking, are better than none.
36．The woman apologized in the class because she____.
A.took a picture of the board B.missed the teachers’ directions

D.they have a good memory of teachers’ instructions
37．B
【解析】细节理解题。由文章第三段中的“They might lose paper, they reasoned”可知选B。2·1·c·n·j·y
38．According to the passage, taking notes by hand_______.
A.requires students to think independently
B.is unsuitable for students to learn new ideas
C.helps students actively participate in learning

It is love that m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )akes the world go round. And it is also love that has such power to overcome all difficulties. So we say: “Love will find a way.” As smile is a facial expression showing pleasure, affection, and friendliness, it is the commonest way to show our good will perfectly without saying anything. A Chinese saying runs: “never hit a person who is smiling at you.” It is a time-proven fact that the smile is a language all its own— a universal language—understood by the people of every nation in the world. We may not speak the same tongue as our foreign neighbors, but we smile in the same tongue. We need no interpreter for thus expressing love, happiness, or good will.
One day while shop ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ping in a small town in southern California, it was my misfortune to be approached by a clerk whose personality contradicted mine. He seemed most unfriendly and not at all concerned about my intended purchase. I bought nothing, and marched angrily out of the store. My anger toward that grew with each step. Outside, standing at the corner, was a dark-complexion young man in his early twenties. His expressive brown eyes met and held mine, and in the next instant a beautiful, dazzling smile covered his face. I gave in immediately. The magnetic power of that shining smile drove away all bitterness within me, and I found the muscles in my own face happily responding. “Beautiful day, isn’t it ” I remarked, in passing. Then, suddenly something inside me sent me turning back. “I really owe you a debt of gratitude,” I said softly. His smile deepened, but he made no attempt to answer. A Mexican woman and two men were standing nearby. The woman stepped forward and eyed me inquiringly. “Carlos, he no speak English,” she volunteered. “You want I should tell him something ” In that moment I felt transformed. Carlos’ smile had made a big person of me. My friendliness and good will toward all mankind stood ten feet tall. “Yes,” my reply was enthusiastic and sincere, “tell him I said ‘Thank you!’” “Thank you ” The woman seemed slightly puzzled. I gave her arm a friendly pat as I turned to leave. “Just tell him that,” I insisted. “He’ll understand. I am sure!” Oh, what a smile can do! Although I have never seen that young man again, I shall never forget the lesson he taught me that morning.
From that day on, I became smile – conscious, and I practice that diligently, anywhere and everywhere, with everybody. When I got excited in traffic, taking the right–of–way (公路用地) from the other car with my stupid mistake, I’d smile and shrug my shoulders apologetically. This action on my part would always draw a good–natured smile in return. If the other fellow was at fault – and if I could remember my resolution in time! – he’d get a broad smile of understanding. This took a bit of doing at first. I’ll admit it wasn’t always easy, but it was fun. The results were sometimes amazing. Many times, a broad, friendly smile would completely turn aside ill–feeling and tension. I’m wondering now how many tragic accidents could be avoided on our overcrowded highways, if every driver remembered to smile!

It must have been ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) around nine O’clock when I drove back home from work because it was already dark. As I came near to the gates I turned off the headlamps of the car so as to prevent the beam(光) from swinging(摇摆)in through the window and waking Jack, who shared the house with me. But needn’t have done so, I noticed that his light was still on, so he was awake anyway--- unless he had fallen asleep while reading. I put the car away and went up the steps, Then I opened the door quietly and went to Jack’s room. He was in bed awake but he didn’t even turn towards me.
“What’s up, Jack ” I said.
“For God’s sake(看在上帝面上), don’t make a noise,” he said.
The way he spoke ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) reminded me of someone in pain who is afraid to talk in case he does himself a serious injury(伤害).
“Take your shoes off, Neville,” Jack said.
I thought that he ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) must be ill and that I had better humour (迁就)him to keep him happy, “There’s a snake here” he explained, “It’s asleep between the sheets. I was lying on my back reading when I saw it. I knew that moving was out of the question. I couldn’t have moved even if I’d wanted to .” I realized that he was serious. “I was relying on you to call a doctor as soon as you came home.” Jack went on.” It hasn’t bitten me yet but I daren’t do anything to upset it. It might wake up. I’m sick of this,” he said, “I took it for granted that you would have come home an hour ago.”
There was no ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )time to argue or apologize for being late. I looked at him as encouragingly as I could and went out to telephone the doctor.

BUDAPEST, HUNGARY ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )–- At Eotvos Lorand University's Department of Ethnology, visitors are usually greeted not by a security guard, but by a delegation of friendly mongrels, tails wagging. Dogs have the run of the place. They play in classrooms, visit faculty members in their offices, or nap in the laboratories. Animals here are no surprise --- ethnology is the zoological study of animal behavior --- but the total lack of cages is. 21*cnjy*com
“If you were studyi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ng human behavior, you wouldn’t keep your subjects in a cage for 20 years and then ask them some questions.” asks research fellow Adam Miklosi, who leads much of the research here into the cognitive abilities of man's best friend.
Until recently, dome ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )stication was thought to have dulled dogs’ intelligence. Studies in the early 1980s showed that wolves, from which dogs probably descended, can unlock a gate after watching a human do it once, while dogs remained stumped after watching repeatedly.
Two years ago, some ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) graduate students were given either a puppy or a wolf cub to raise. They fed the animals by hand, coddling and doting on them. At five weeks, each cub was placed in a room containing an adult and the student who had raised the cub. Both sat motionless. But while the wolf cubs merely sniffed both humans before climbing into the student's lap to sleep, the puppies yipped at their caregivers, licking their hands and trying to establish contact.
Three months later, th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e canines were given the opportunity to try to remove a piece of meat from under a cage by pulling on a rope in the presence of their caregiver. Dogs and wolves both mastered this promptly. Then the rope was anchored, making it impossible to obtain the meat. The dogs tried a couple of times, and then turned to their masters for assistance or cues. The wolves ignored their caregivers, yanking on the rope until exhausted.
Dogs are very m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )otivated to cooperate with and behave like people. That's why dogs can do things no other animal can do.
48．What is ethnology according to the article
A.It is a science on the research into nature.
B.It is a branch of social science.
C.It is the zoological study of animal behaviors.
D.It is the study of the behaviors of living things.
48．C
【解析】细节理解题。由第一段中的“ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ethnology is the zoological study of animal behavior”可知。
49．What does Adam Miklosi mean according to his words in paragraph 2
A.If we want t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o research human behaviors, we should keep the subjects trapped.
B.If we want to resear ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ch the behaviors of an animal, we should let them out of cage and do something. 【来源：21cnj*y.co*m】
C.If we want to do re ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )search, we should first ask the subjects we research some questions.
D.If we want to ask wh ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )at we research some questions, we should keep it in a cage.
49．B
【解析】细节理解题。由第二段第一句话的虚拟语气可知，我们不可能把我们的实验对象在笼子里关20年，所以正确答案应该为B。
50．What is the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )meaning of the underlined word “domestication” in paragraph 3
A.Being raised at home by human beings. B.Living in the wild.
C.Doing household jobs. D.Enjoy home duties and pleasures.
50．A
【解析】词义猜测题。从后面的“from wh ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ich dogs probably descended, can unlock a gate after watching a human do it once, while dogs remained stumped after watching repeatedly.”可以推测出这个词的意思相当于“在家饲养”的意思。
51．According ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )to the study, why can the dogs be smarter than the wolves
A.Because the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) wolves were afraid of human beings and were not able to be tamed.
B.Because the dogs ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) did it cleverly by accident, not from the instinct.
C.Because the wolves ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) were frightened by the dogs and didn’t dare to compete for the meat, only standing there yanking. 21·cn·jy·com
D.Because the dog ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s could be motivated to find some ways to cooperate with people to get help.
51．D
【解析】推理判断题。由最后一段的“ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Dogs are very motivated to cooperate with and behave like people”可知。

Obese American ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s are increasingly proving too fat to fit into scanners or their fat gets in the way of X-rays and ultrasounds, according to a study. Researchers found that the number of patients who had inconclusive test results had doubled over 15 years.
Dr Raul Uppot an ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d his team analyzed all the radiology examinations performed at a Massachusetts hospital between 1989 and 2003, looking for records labeled “limited by body habitus” --- meaning the patient's size hampered the quality of the test. They found that while 0.10 per cent of inconclusive exams were due to patient size in 1989, the figure had climbed to 0.19 per cent by 2003, despite advances in technology. It is estimated that 66 per cent of adults in the US are overweight, obese or morbidly obese, while there are 12.5 million overweight children and adolescents. The team said CT and MRI scans could cause problems for obese patients because there were weight limitations on the imaging table and the size of the opening on the imager could be too small for them to get in.
Ultrasound beams a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nd X-rays can also be hindered by fat and fail to produce clear pictures of the organs being examined. Standard CT tables in the US can take patients weighing up to 450lbs, while MRI machines can usually obtain diagnostic-quality images in patients weighing up to 350lbs. The team, writing in the journal Radiology, warned that incomplete examinations because of obesity could have serious consequences, such as misdiagnosis or the failure to find a diagnosis at all.
Dr Uppot, a staff ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )radiologist at MGH, said: “Americans need to know that obesity can hinder their medical care when they enter a hospital.” He added: “In the short term, the medical community must accommodate these patients by investing in technology to help them. In the long term, this country must make cultural shifts that promote more exercise and a healthier diet.”21cnjy.com
52．The article mainly tells us that ____.
A.American patients hate the X-rays.
B.American patients like to be examined by X-rays. 【出处：21教育名师】
C.American patien ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ts’ sizes hamper the quality of the radiology examinations.

A.Because the obe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )se patients are too wide to get in the rooms where the scanners are laid.
B.Because there are weight limitations on the imaging table.

Both bike and c ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ar are important transportations nowadays. Cars are faster than bikes. Bikes need human power while cars are driven by petrol. But bike can be put anywhere while cars can only be put in garages.
However, whether ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )you prefer a car or a bike depends on where you live and what your habit is. But to me, I like bike better. It is cheaper than a car. And it can bring me more convenience. What’s more, it doesn’t pollute the environment, while cars give off too much fume which may do harm to the air. So bikes are really good friends of people.
