Gabon, on the west coast of Africa, has numerous rainforests, open grasslands, white sand beaches and rushing rivers. Here are four adventures that can let you have unforgettable experiences.
The Wild Species Adventure
The site of this adventure is close to a national park, which has elephants, monkeys, leopards, red river hogs and so on. Visitors can go on a journey by jeep and have a chance to see the country’s natural beauty and different birds in a nearby reserve.
The Fishing Adventure
Gabon has some really big fish and miles of untouched coastlines, and the fishing spots are not packed, because they are wide apart. When fishing, visitors can find themselves in pleasant places, surrounded by palm trees during the adventure. Gabon’s unique lagoon (环礁湖) system provides visitors with a range of fish, all ready for you to join in the fishing contest.
The Private Island Adventure
It is difficult for visitors to find this private island on the sea on booking or a trip advisor, but it is known by locals. It offers small but comfortable rooms to rest. Visitors can try fun activities like wakeboarding and boating. During the whale season, visitors can also rent boats to take a close look at whales by following responsible viewing guidelines.
The Whale Watching Adventure
There is a great diversity of marine mammals to see in this adventure, especially whales. Some of the whales can be found at all time, while others, for example, the humpback whales, only spend a few months from July to September. In this trip, visitors can take splendid pictures of these whales playing around and jumping above the surface of the sea under safety guidance.
21．Which adventure attracts a lover of land animals most
A．The wild species adventure. B．The fishing adventure.
C．The private island adventure. D．The whale watching adventure.

Visitors can go on a journey by jeep and have a chance to see the country’s natural beauty and different birds in a nearby reserve.(这次冒险的地点靠近一个国家公园，公园里有大象、猴子、豹子、红河猪等。游客可以乘坐吉普车旅行，并有机会看到该国的自然美景和附近保护区的不同鸟类)”可知，陆地动物爱好者可以到这里冒险。故选A。
22．细节理解题。根据文章“The Fishing Adventure”部分中的“Gabon has some really big fish and miles of untouched coastlines, and the fishing spots are not packed, because they are wide apart.(加蓬有一些非常大的鱼和几英里未被破坏的海岸线，而且钓鱼点并不拥挤，因为它们相隔很远)”可知，钓鱼探险的地点非常宽敞，不拥挤。故选C。
23．细节理解题。根据文章“The Private Island Adventure”部分中的“During the whale season, visitors can also rent boats to take a close look at whales by following responsible viewing guidelines.(在赏鲸季节，游客还可以租用船只，按照负责任的观鲸指南近距离观察鲸鱼)”以及“The Whale Watching Adventure”部分中的“There is a great diversity of marine mammals to see in this adventure, especially whales.(在这次探险中可以看到各种各样的海洋哺乳动物，尤其是鲸鱼)”可知，最后两种探险中，游客可以看到鲸鱼。故选A。

Love is one of life’s greatest motivators. That is exactly what inspired Zack to design a fully electric off-road wheelchair for his girlfriend suffering from paralysis (瘫痪).
Like most wheelchair-users, Cambry has always been restricted to the pavement for most of her adult life. Aside from that, using a wheelchair across long distances makes her shoulders ache. Zack Nelson, her boyfriend, wanted to give her the ability to explore more places conveniently, so he made a special wheelchair for her, which would make it possible.
Zack began by combining two electric bikes and installing a seat in the centre. It worked! Cambry experienced a whole new level of freedom using her new “ride”, and she couldn’t be more grateful to Zack for coming up with it. Fast forward to a year later, Cambry and Zack tied the knot. They also began mass-production of the special wheelchair. Throughout that time, they improved the original design to make it a more reliable off-roader.
While similar vehicles already exist in the market, they said they’re either slow or cost as much as a car. Cambry and Zack wanted to build something quick, light, super long-range, and affordable at the same time. However, coming up with that kind of electric off-roader wasn’t easy.
The toughest challenge when developing the special wheelchair is the price. “We wanted to create something that is affordable for everyone. Finding quality components, and a simple enough design at the cheapest price possibly took quite a bit of time,” said Zack. “But I think we have something now that everyone will be able to enjoy, at a fraction (少量) of the cost of other ‘off-road wheelchairs’ currently on the market.” Another great thing about the vehicle is that it’s silent. Its rider will have no difficulty chatting with their companion while using it. Cambry and Zack are very happy with the fully-electric machine, and they hope that other wheelchair-users will also benefit from it.
24．What was Zack’s motivation to invent a fully electric wheelchair
A．The market demands. B．His interest in invention.
C．His love for his girlfriend. D．The request of his girlfriend.
25．What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to
A．Walking on the pavement with ease.
B．The special wheelchair made by Zack.
C．The ability to explore more places conveniently.
D．Cambry’s desire to reduce the pain of her shoulders.
26．What does Zack think of the existing wheelchairs in the market
A．They’re light. B．They’re expensive.
C．They’re ugly. D．They’re small.
27．What can we learn about Zack from the last paragraph
A．He has an ambition to introduce the wheelchair to others.
B．He is satisfied with people’s reaction to the wheelchair.
C．He couldn’t afford the components of the wheelchair.
D．He spent many years designing the wheelchair.
【答案】24．C 25．C 26．B 27．A
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍的是爱是生活中最大的动力之一，正是这种爱激发了Zack为瘫痪女友设计了全电动越野轮椅的故事。
24．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Love is one of life’s greatest motivators. That is exactly what inspired Zack to design a fully electric off-road wheelchair for his girlfriend suffering from paralysis (瘫痪).(爱是人生最大的动力之一。这正是扎克为瘫痪女友设计全电动越野轮椅的灵感来源。)”可知，Zack设计全电动越野轮椅的动力是他对女友的爱。故选C。
25．词义猜测题。根据第二段中“Zack Nelson, her boyfriend, wanted to give her the ability to explore more places conveniently, so he made a special wheelchair for her, (Zack Nelson，她的男朋友，希望给她提供更方便的探索地方的能力，所以他为她制作了一把特殊的轮椅。)”可知，此处Zack希望给她提供更方便的探索地方的能力，为了实现这个可能才制作了一把特殊轮椅。故划线词it指代的内容是“方便地探索更多地方的能力。”故选C。
26．推理判断题。根据第四段中“While similar vehicles already exist in the market, they said they’re either slow or cost as much as a car.(虽然市场上已经有类似的轮椅，但他们说，这些轮椅要么速度慢，要么价格和汽车一样高。)”可知，当前市场上类似的轮椅，要么速度慢，要么价格高。故目前市场上的轮椅价格高。故选B。
27．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Cambry and Zack are very happy with the fully-electric machine, and they hope that other wheelchair-users will also benefit from it.( Cambry和Zack对这台全电动机器非常满意，他们希望其他轮椅使用者也能从中受益。)”可知，Zack对这台全电动机器非常满意，他们希望其他轮椅使用者也能从中受益。，所以推断他有自己的追求目标——将他设计的轮椅推广给其他的人。故选A。
C
The Canadian Fossil Discovery Centre has recently “rediscovered” an ancient shark skeleton that has been sitting in the museum’s collection for nearly 50 years. Could this shark be a part of a newly discovered ancient shark species
This fossil’s original discovery was in 1975 on a farm just west of Morden, Manitoba. The skeleton was brought into the museum and was forgotten within the ever-growing fossil collection. The skeleton was hidden in the collections room for over 40 years and the center just recently found the fossil in its storage around eight years ago.
Adolfo Cuertara, the director of the Canadian Fossil Discovery Centre, explained that “It’s a very special shark for many reasons. It’s highly possible that we are talking about a new species.” Although the shark has not been given a scientific name yet, the museum has unofficially named the skeleton, “Dave”, in honor of the farmer on whose land the skeleton was found.
After the fossil rediscovery, Dave was exhibited at the fossil center museum. Dave is around 15 feet long and is one of the largest well-preserved shark skeletons in the entire world. Within the paleontology (古生物学) world, complete shark fossils are extremely rare due to their soft cartilage (软骨结构) which disintegrates as they age. Dave’s shark species are filter feeders with no teeth, who receive their nutrition by absorbing it out of the water. Cuertara emphasizes Dave’s uniqueness by explaining, “The shape of the jaws and the skull and the kind of structures that it has, because the preservation is really amazing, is telling us that it is probably going to be a new species. The problem is now we need scientific papers and scientific research and this paper is underway.”
The Canadian Fossil Discovery Centre is hopeful that more scientific research will provide more information on Dave’s ancient shark species. For now, Dave is currently on display at the Canadian Fossil Discovery Centre and the museum has the exhibit up to date with their current information.
28．Where probably could you find this article
A．Science textbook of college.
B．Advertising brochure of museum.
C．Discovery column of magazine.
D．Bulletin board of animal world.
29．What does the underlined word “disintegrates” mean in the fourth paragraph
A．Die away. B．Break down. C．Build up. D．Lie down.
30．What evidence made scientists believe Dave is a new shark species
A．The structure of skull and jaw.
B．The preservation of jaw and the skull.
C．The uniqueness of no teeth structure.
D．The rare soft cartilage.
31．What is the main idea of the text
A．Canadian Fossil Discovery Centre displays Dave ancient shark species.
B．Dave’s shark species is a new species of ancient shark.
C．Canadian Museum rediscovers a new ancient shark species.
D．Dave’s shark skeleton is in honor of the farmer who rediscovered it.
【答案】28．C 29．B 30．B 31．C
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了加拿大化石发现中心最近重新发现了一具古老的鲨鱼骨架，该骨架在博物馆的收藏中已经存放了近50年。这可能是一种新发现的古老鲨鱼物种，目前尚未正式命名，但博物馆暂时以“戴夫”为其非正式名称。
28．推理判断题。通读全文，结合第一段中“The Canadian Fossil Discovery Centre has recently “rediscovered” an ancient shark skeleton that has been sitting in the museum’s collection for nearly 50 years.(加拿大化石发现中心最近“重新发现”了一具在博物馆收藏了近50年的古代鲨鱼骨架)”和最后一段中“The Canadian Fossil Discovery Centre is hopeful that more scientific research will provide more information on Dave’s ancient shark species. For now, Dave is currently on display at the Canadian Fossil Discovery Centre and the museum has the exhibit up to date with their current information.(加拿大化石发现中心希望更多的科学研究能提供更多关于戴夫古鲨鱼物种的信息。目前，戴夫目前正在加拿大化石发现中心展出，博物馆的展品与他们目前的信息同步)”可知，本文介绍了加拿大化石发现中心对其馆藏“古鲨鱼骨架”的再发现，并说明了其意义。由此推知，本文可能出自杂志中的发现栏目。故选C项。
29．词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“Within the paleontology (古生物学) world, complete shark fossils are extremely rare due to their soft cartilage (软骨结构) which disintegrates as they age.(在古生物学界，完整的鲨鱼化石极其罕见，因为它们的软骨会随着年龄的增长而disintegrates)”中“soft cartilage (软骨结构)”可推知，因为鲨鱼是软骨，所以随着年龄的增长，骨头会“分解”，很难保留下来。划线词disintegrates与动词短语Break down同义。故选B项。
30．细节理解题。根据第四段中“The shape of the jaws and the skull and the kind of structures that it has, because the preservation is really amazing, is telling us that it is probably going to be a new species.(颌骨和头骨的形状以及它的结构，因为保存得非常惊人地完好，告诉我们它可能是一个新物种)”可知，得到保存的颌骨和头骨让科学家相信戴夫是一种新的鲨鱼物种。故选B项。
31．主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第一段中“The Canadian Fossil Discovery Centre has recently “rediscovered” an ancient shark skeleton that has been sitting in the museum’s collection for nearly 50 years.(加拿大化石发现中心最近“重新发现”了一具在博物馆收藏了近50年的古代鲨鱼骨架)”可知，文章主要介绍了加拿大化石发现中心对其馆藏“古鲨鱼骨架”的再发现，它可能是一种新的古老鲨鱼物种，所以“Canadian Museum rediscovers a new ancient shark species.(加拿大博物馆重新发现了一种新的古鲨鱼物种)”是文章的主要内容。故选C项。
D
Typically, people are more likely to share things that can lead to an exchange of saliva (唾液), such as kisses or an ice cream cone, with family members or close friends than with an acquaintance or a colleague. As a result, it can be markers of a “thick relationship”, which can help babies work out who is in close relationships with one another, a study suggests.
Ashley Thomas, a developmental psychologist at MIT, and colleagues ran experiments of people engaging with puppets (木偶). Researchers, of course, can’t know exactly what babies are thinking. But tracking where they look is one way to get a hint. The idea is not that young children might be expecting an adult to comfort the puppet, Thomas says. Instead, the researchers expected that the young children would look toward the person that they expect to move first when the puppet expresses distress (悲伤), and that would be the person who has a closer relationship with the toy, she says.
For some of the experiments, the team showed 8-to 10-month-old babies or 16-to 18-month-old toddlers videos of a woman sharing an orange slice with a puppet. A second video depicted another woman and the puppet playing with a ball. During a final video that showed the puppet seemingly crying while seated between the two women, the kids’ eyes were drawn to the woman who had shared the orange slice — a sign the kids may have been expecting her to react.
The team saw similar results when one woman interacted with two puppets. The woman stuck her finger in her mouth and then one puppet’s mouth to share her saliva. For the other, she touched only her forehead and then the puppet’s forehead. Infants and toddlers spent more time looking at the puppet that had swapped saliva after the woman showed distress.
This study throws new light on child’s psychology. But it’s unclear how the findings relate to the daily lives of young children. Future experiments could switch out actresses in the study for family members or teachers to better understand the role saliva may play in how babies and toddlers distinguish different types of relationships.
32．What can help babies figure out close relationships
A．Things that can result in an exchange of emotion.
B．Intimate actions that share saliva.
C．An ice cream cone in the Sweet Stop.
D．Behaviors that comfort the puppet.
33．How do researchers know who has a closer relationship with the puppet in babies’ eyes
A．By finding what babies are thinking.
B．By tracking where babies point.
C．By knowing who the young children look toward.
D．By watching who come to comfort the puppet.
34．What’s the purpose of paragraph 4
A．To give supporting evidence for the study results.
B．To show potential application of the study findings.
C．To make a brief conclusion of the study results.
D．To raise a reasonable doubt about the study process.
35．What’s the author’s attitude to this new finding
A．Favorable. B．Intolerant. C．Objective. D．Unclear.
【答案】32．B 33．C 34．A 35．A
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍相关研究证明人们更倾向于与家人或亲密朋友分享唾液，这在婴儿看来是“亲密关系”的标志。
32．细节理解题。根据第一段“Typically, people are more likely to share things that can lead to an exchange of saliva (唾液), such as kisses or an ice cream cone, with family members or close friends than with an acquaintance or a colleague. As a result, it can be markers of a ”thick relationship”, which can help babies work out who is in close relationships with one another, a study suggests.(通常情况下，人们更倾向于与家人或亲密的朋友分享可以引起唾液交换的东西，比如亲吻或冰淇淋甜筒，而不是与熟人或同事分享。因此，一项研究表明，这可能是“亲密关系”的标志，可以帮助婴儿弄清楚谁与另一个人关系密切)”可知，分享唾液的亲密行为可以帮助婴儿弄清楚亲密的关系。故选B项。
33．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Researchers, of course, can’t know exactly what babies are thinking. But tracking where they look is one way to get a hint.(当然，研究人员无法确切知道婴儿在想什么。但追踪他们看的地方是获得线索的一种方式)”和“Instead, the researchers expected that the young children would look toward the person that they expect to move first when the puppet expresses distress (悲伤), and that would be the person who has a closer relationship with the toy, she says.(她说，相反，研究人员预计，当木偶表现出悲伤时，年幼的孩子会把目光投向他们预计会首先移动的人，而这个人可能是与玩具关系更密切的人)”可知，通过观察孩子们在看谁，研究人员就能知道在婴儿眼中，谁与木偶关系更密切。故选C项。
34．推理判断题。第四段“The team saw similar results when one woman interacted with two puppets. The woman stuck her finger in her mouth and then one puppet’s mouth to share her saliva. For the other, she touched only her forehead and then the puppet’s forehead. Infants and toddlers spent more time looking at the puppet that had swapped saliva after the woman showed distress.(当一名妇女与两个木偶互动时，研究小组也看到了类似的结果。这个女人把手指先伸进嘴里，然后伸进一个木偶的嘴里，分享她的唾液。对于另一个，她只是先触摸自己的额头，然后触摸木偶的额头。在女人表现出痛苦后，婴儿和蹒跚学步的孩子会花更多的时间看那个分享唾液的木偶)”中详细介绍了另一个相关实验。结合段首句“The team saw similar results when one woman interacted with two puppets.(当一名妇女与两个木偶互动时，研究小组也看到了类似的结果)”可知，第四段是为研究结果提供支持性证据。故选A项。
35．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“This study throws new light on child’s psychology.(这项研究对儿童心理学有了新的认识)”和第段中“Future experiments could switch out actresses in the study for family members or teachers to better understand the role saliva may play in how babies and toddlers distinguish different types of relationships.(未来的实验可能会把研究中的女演员换成家庭成员或老师，以更好地理解唾液在婴幼儿如何区分不同类型的关系中可能发挥的作用)”可推知，作者肯定这一研究的作用与前景，所以对其持赞成的态度。故选A项。

Super Roy
“You’re a halfback(中卫).” I looked over my shoulder at the empty field behind me. “Me ” I asked, pointing to my chest
“Yes,” the coach said again. “You’re a halfback. Yep, no doubt about it.”
The coach’s name was Super Roy. Someone told me his real name once, but it never stuck. When I got to practice that day I was a small kid with little athletic experience or skill. I wondered if I belonged there at all and what Super Roy had seen in me that I didn’t see in myself.
“Are you sure I’m a halfback ” I asked him the next day.
“Let me see,” he said, standing back to have a good glance at me, which made me nervous about what he would say
“Yep. You’re a halfback. Might as well get used to it.”
“Okay,” I said, puzzled but beginning to accept the idea, strange as it seemed.
Later that day we started running plays. Time after time the quarterback put the ball right in my hands. Me, the silly fellow who had to be reminded how many points a touchdown was worth. I expected to go all season without touching the ball. I expected to be a bench warmer, and now the ball was in my hands—literally.
Super Roy had a routine he did every day. As practice came to an end, he would pick one of the players to step forward. The player had to recite a quote Super Roy had given him the day before. It was a very important moment in practice. No one wanted to forget his quote in front of the whole team.
After practice was over one day, Super Roy spoke to me. “Your turn tomorrow,” he said. “Ready for your quote ”
“Okay,” I said, stressed in deep concentration. “I’m ready.”
“Well, here it is: ‘It’s not the size of the man you play, it’s how you play the man.’ Got it ” “Yes, Coach.”
Super Roy winked at me and gave me a pat on the shoulder. “And I believe the quote will help you make a miracle in the inter school match next month,” he added.
On the way home, my mind played like a broken record, which made me murmur the words repeatedly.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；

【答案】参考范文
There came the practice time the next day. All during practice I mumbled the quote to myself after each hit, just to be sure it hadn't been knocked out of my head. When the moment came, I stepped forward. “It's not the size of the man you play,” I told my teammates, “it's how you play the man.” When speaking the words, I began to find a greater man inside myself. From Ben on, I spared no effort to prepare for the coming match. Efforts paid off in the end. I, who had not been sure if he belonged there, was awarded the gold medal. At that moment, I couldn't wait to show my gratitude to Super Boy.
I stepped into Super Roy's-office after the mater. On seeing me, he sincerely congratulated me on my success. “Undoubtedly, I owed my success to your push and encouragement.” I said, with tears rolling down my cheeks. It was he who looked for the good in his students who never saw in themselves and it was he who shaped my life. That year a scrawny little kid learned to behave in himself, to learn there was no problem so big he couldn't handle. Super Roy's encouraging words still echo in m mind today. What a blessing to have him in my school life.

There is a great diversity of marine mammals to see in this adventure, especially whales. Some of the whales can be found at all time, while others, for example, the humpback whales, only spend a few months from July to September.

Love is one of life’s greatest motivators. That is exactly what inspired Zack to design a fully electric off-road wheelchair for his girlfriend suffering from paralysis (瘫痪).
Like most wheelchair-users, Cambry has always been restricted to the pavement for most of her adult life. Aside from that, using a wheelchair across long distances makes her shoulders ache. Zack Nelson, her boyfriend, wanted to give her the ability to explore more places conveniently, so he made a special wheelchair for her, which would make it possible.
Zack began by combining two electric bikes and installing a seat in the centre. It worked! Cambry experienced a whole new level of freedom using her new “ride”, and she couldn’t be more grateful to Zack for coming up with it. Fast forward to a year later, Cambry and Zack tied the knot. They also began mass-production of the special wheelchair. Throughout that time, they improved the original design to make it a more reliable off-roader.
While similar vehicles already exist in the market, they said they’re either slow or cost as much as a car. Cambry and Zack wanted to build something quick, light, super long-range, and affordable at the same time. However, coming up with that kind of electric off-roader wasn’t easy.
The toughest challenge when developing the special wheelchair is the price. “We wanted to create something that is affordable for everyone. Finding quality components, and a simple enough design at the cheapest price possibly took quite a bit of time,” said Zack. “But I think we have something now that everyone will be able to enjoy, at a fraction (少量) of the cost of other ‘off-road wheelchairs’ currently on the market.” Another great thing about the vehicle is that it’s silent. Its rider will have no difficulty chatting with their companion while using it. Cambry and Zack are very happy with the fully-electric machine, and they hope that other wheelchair-users will also benefit from it.
24．What was Zack’s motivation to invent a fully electric wheelchair
A．The market demands. B．His interest in invention.
C．His love for his girlfriend. D．The request of his girlfriend.
25．What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to
A．Walking on the pavement with ease.
B．The special wheelchair made by Zack.
C．The ability to explore more places conveniently.
D．Cambry’s desire to reduce the pain of her shoulders.
26．What does Zack think of the existing wheelchairs in the market
A．They’re light. B．They’re expensive.
C．They’re ugly. D．They’re small.
27．What can we learn about Zack from the last paragraph
A．He has an ambition to introduce the wheelchair to others.
B．He is satisfied with people’s reaction to the wheelchair.
C．He couldn’t afford the components of the wheelchair.
D．He spent many years designing the wheelchair.

The Canadian Fossil Discovery Centre has recently “rediscovered” an ancient shark skeleton that has been sitting in the museum’s collection for nearly 50 years. Could this shark be a part of a newly discovered ancient shark species
This fossil’s original discovery was in 1975 on a farm just west of Morden, Manitoba. The skeleton was brought into the museum and was forgotten within the ever-growing fossil collection. The skeleton was hidden in the collections room for over 40 years and the center just recently found the fossil in its storage around eight years ago.
Adolfo Cuertara, the director of the Canadian Fossil Discovery Centre, explained that “It’s a very special shark for many reasons. It’s highly possible that we are talking about a new species.” Although the shark has not been given a scientific name yet, the museum has unofficially named the skeleton, “Dave”, in honor of the farmer on whose land the skeleton was found.
After the fossil rediscovery, Dave was exhibited at the fossil center museum. Dave is around 15 feet long and is one of the largest well-preserved shark skeletons in the entire world. Within the paleontology (古生物学) world, complete shark fossils are extremely rare due to their soft cartilage (软骨结构) which disintegrates as they age. Dave’s shark species are filter feeders with no teeth, who receive their nutrition by absorbing it out of the water. Cuertara emphasizes Dave’s uniqueness by explaining, “The shape of the jaws and the skull and the kind of structures that it has, because the preservation is really amazing, is telling us that it is probably going to be a new species. The problem is now we need scientific papers and scientific research and this paper is underway.”
The Canadian Fossil Discovery Centre is hopeful that more scientific research will provide more information on Dave’s ancient shark species. For now, Dave is currently on display at the Canadian Fossil Discovery Centre and the museum has the exhibit up to date with their current information.
28．Where probably could you find this article
A．Science textbook of college.
B．Advertising brochure of museum.
C．Discovery column of magazine.
D．Bulletin board of animal world.
29．What does the underlined word “disintegrates” mean in the fourth paragraph
A．Die away. B．Break down. C．Build up. D．Lie down.
30．What evidence made scientists believe Dave is a new shark species
A．The structure of skull and jaw.
B．The preservation of jaw and the skull.
C．The uniqueness of no teeth structure.
D．The rare soft cartilage.
31．What is the main idea of the text
A．Canadian Fossil Discovery Centre displays Dave ancient shark species.
B．Dave’s shark species is a new species of ancient shark.
C．Canadian Museum rediscovers a new ancient shark species.
D．Dave’s shark skeleton is in honor of the farmer who rediscovered it.

Typically, people are more likely to share things that can lead to an exchange of saliva (唾液), such as kisses or an ice cream cone, with family members or close friends than with an acquaintance or a colleague. As a result, it can be markers of a “thick relationship”, which can help babies work out who is in close relationships with one another, a study suggests.
Ashley Thomas, a developmental psychologist at MIT, and colleagues ran experiments of people engaging with puppets (木偶). Researchers, of course, can’t know exactly what babies are thinking. But tracking where they look is one way to get a hint. The idea is not that young children might be expecting an adult to comfort the puppet, Thomas says. Instead, the researchers expected that the young children would look toward the person that they expect to move first when the puppet expresses distress (悲伤), and that would be the person who has a closer relationship with the toy, she says.
For some of the experiments, the team showed 8-to 10-month-old babies or 16-to 18-month-old toddlers videos of a woman sharing an orange slice with a puppet. A second video depicted another woman and the puppet playing with a ball. During a final video that showed the puppet seemingly crying while seated between the two women, the kids’ eyes were drawn to the woman who had shared the orange slice — a sign the kids may have been expecting her to react.
The team saw similar results when one woman interacted with two puppets. The woman stuck her finger in her mouth and then one puppet’s mouth to share her saliva. For the other, she touched only her forehead and then the puppet’s forehead. Infants and toddlers spent more time looking at the puppet that had swapped saliva after the woman showed distress.
This study throws new light on child’s psychology. But it’s unclear how the findings relate to the daily lives of young children. Future experiments could switch out actresses in the study for family members or teachers to better understand the role saliva may play in how babies and toddlers distinguish different types of relationships.
32．What can help babies figure out close relationships
A．Things that can result in an exchange of emotion.
B．Intimate actions that share saliva.
C．An ice cream cone in the Sweet Stop.
D．Behaviors that comfort the puppet.
33．How do researchers know who has a closer relationship with the puppet in babies’ eyes
A．By finding what babies are thinking.
B．By tracking where babies point.
C．By knowing who the young children look toward.
D．By watching who come to comfort the puppet.
34．What’s the purpose of paragraph 4
A．To give supporting evidence for the study results.
B．To show potential application of the study findings.
C．To make a brief conclusion of the study results.
D．To raise a reasonable doubt about the study process.
35．What’s the author’s attitude to this new finding
A．Favorable. B．Intolerant. C．Objective. D．Unclear.

Super Roy
“You’re a halfback(中卫).” I looked over my shoulder at the empty field behind me. “Me ” I asked, pointing to my chest
“Yes,” the coach said again. “You’re a halfback. Yep, no doubt about it.”
The coach’s name was Super Roy. Someone told me his real name once, but it never stuck. When I got to practice that day I was a small kid with little athletic experience or skill. I wondered if I belonged there at all and what Super Roy had seen in me that I didn’t see in myself.
“Are you sure I’m a halfback ” I asked him the next day.
“Let me see,” he said, standing back to have a good glance at me, which made me nervous about what he would say
“Yep. You’re a halfback. Might as well get used to it.”
“Okay,” I said, puzzled but beginning to accept the idea, strange as it seemed.
Later that day we started running plays. Time after time the quarterback put the ball right in my hands. Me, the silly fellow who had to be reminded how many points a touchdown was worth. I expected to go all season without touching the ball. I expected to be a bench warmer, and now the ball was in my hands—literally.
Super Roy had a routine he did every day. As practice came to an end, he would pick one of the players to step forward. The player had to recite a quote Super Roy had given him the day before. It was a very important moment in practice. No one wanted to forget his quote in front of the whole team.
After practice was over one day, Super Roy spoke to me. “Your turn tomorrow,” he said. “Ready for your quote ”
“Okay,” I said, stressed in deep concentration. “I’m ready.”
“Well, here it is: ‘It’s not the size of the man you play, it’s how you play the man.’ Got it ” “Yes, Coach.”
Super Roy winked at me and gave me a pat on the shoulder. “And I believe the quote will help you make a miracle in the inter school match next month,” he added.
On the way home, my mind played like a broken record, which made me murmur the words repeatedly.
