13、 In an Italian school, the students are taking a science lesson.
Mr Marco, their teacher, explains, “For part of our lesson today, some of you are going to visit the Lakeside Park to study trees in natural surroundings. You will be looking carefully and thinking about the conditions trees need to grow.”
Mr Marco and the group walk to the woodland where there are many beautiful trees. The students are required to match the trees with the names of three trees on their question paper. Two students try guessing the height of young trees. Then they measure the distance from a young tree to the parent tree by counting their steps between the trees. One of the students reminds them to stay on task and follow the group. The rest of the group see several trees matching the descriptions on their task list and run towards them.
Mr Marco gives the students three large plastic bowls with three labels (标签). The students begin to search under each tree and find things to fill the labelled bowls. They put the things they find into a bowl labelled red birch. Then they find the other two trees, a Tibetan cherry, and a paperbark maple with red and orange curly leaves. Once the students have finished, they relax, draw and make notes.
When the group return to school, Mr Marco gives them special glasses to look through. They begin to sort and order their collections. Two of the students put tiny seeds between two pieces of glass.
They examine them carefully. Two more students pour water into a metal container (容器) to cover some leaves and dead flowers. They put on special gloves to stir the liquid (液体) as the container heats up on a hotplate. Two other students are drawing and taking notes.

18、It seems that there’s a good reason why dogs are always seen as man’s best friend. Scientists have found that dogs are the only animals that can read emotion(情感)in faces much like humans. The finding suggests that like an understanding friend, dogs can see if we are happy, sad, pleased or angry.
When humans look at a new face, their eyes usually look across the left, falling on the right hand side of the person’s face first. A possible reason for this is that the right side of the human face is better at expressing emotions.
Scientists have now shown that pet dogs also have “left gaze bias(左视偏好)”, but only when looking at human faces. No other animal has been known to do like this before. Dr. Kun Guo with his team showed 17 dogs the pictures of human, dog and monkey faces as well as something else. The dogs’ eyes and heads show a strong left gaze bias when the animals see human faces. But this did not happen when they were shown other pictures, including those of dogs.
Guo suggests that over thousands of years living with humans, dogs may have developed the left gaze bias as a way to guess our emotions.
“Recent studies show that the right side of our faces can express emotions better than the left. If true, then it makes sense for dogs and humans to see the right hand side of a face first.”
1．Why are dogs seen as man’s best friend according to the passage
A．Because dogs are the closest animals to humans.
B．Because dogs can read the emotions in humans’ faces easily.
C．Because dogs can understand us better when we feel sad.
D．Because dogs are good at expressing emotions.
2．The dogs’ left gaze bias helps them _______.
A．get along well with humans
B．express emotions quickly
C．have more understanding friends
D．remember more new faces
3．The passage mainly wants to tell us that _______.
A．dogs have been man’s best friends for thousands of years
B．humans have a “left gaze bias”
C．the “left gaze bias” works on all animals
D．dogs can read emotions the same as humans

How time flies! It seemed that we began our Grade Three only a few months ago, but the Senior High School Entrance Examination is coming soon! I find the teachers speak more quickly than usual in class now, and we have so much homework and so many exams that we do not have enough time for any after-school activities．Some students did not study hard enough before, but now they have realized the importance of the exam and are putting all their effort into study．During the last month, I am going to listen carefully in class and pay more attention to details, and it is also important for us to keep a balance between study and rest．
I'm sure we will do well in the coming exam if we try our best!
