三、阅读理解（共18分）
（一）
? ??In an ideal world, people would not test medicines on animals. Such experiments are stressful and sometimes painful for animals, and expensive and time-consuming for people. Yet animal experimentation is still needed to help bridge vast gaps in medical knowledge. That is why there are some 50 to 100 million animals used in research around the world each year.
? ??Europe, on the whole, has the world's most restrictive (严格的) laws on animal experiments. Even so，its scientists use some 12 million animals a year, most of them mice and rats, for medical research. Official statistics show that just 1.1 million animals are used in research in America each year. But that is misleading. The American authorities do not think mice and rats are worth counting and, as these are the most common laboratory animals, the true figure is much higher. Japan and China have even less comprehensive (全面的) data than America.
? ??Now Europe is reforming the rules governing animal experiments by restricting the number of animals used in labs. Alternatives to animal testing，such as using human tissue or computer models, are now strongly recommended. In addition, sharing all research results freely should help to reduce the number of animals for scientific use. At present, scientists often share only the results of successful experiments. If their findings do not fit the hypothesis (假设) being tested, the work never sees the light of day. This practice means wasting time, money, and animals' lives in endlessly repeating the failed experiments.
?? ?Animal experimentation has taught humanity a great deal and saved countless lives. It needs to continue，even if that means animals sometimes suffer. Europe's new measures should eventually both reduce the number of animals used in experiments and improve the way in which scientific research is conducted.
（1）What is the main idea of this passage? （ ）
A.The success of animal experiments should be ensured.
B.A ban on the use of animals in the lab should be enforced.
C.Greater efforts need to be taken to reduce the number of lab animals.
D.Scientists should be required to share their research results with each other.

A.America uses only about 1.1 million lab animals per year.
B.Europe does not use mice and rats as lab animals at all.
C.Britain does not use as many lab animals as China does.
D.Japan has limited data on the number of lab animals used each year.
（3）Which of the following is mentioned as an alternative to replace animal experiments? （ ）
A.Statistical studies. B.Computer models.
C.DNA planted in animals. D.Tissue from dead animals.
（4）What usually happens to unsuccessful animal experiments? （ ）
A.They are not made known to the public.?
B.They are made into teaching materials.
C.They are collected for future publication.
D.They are not removed from the research topic list.
（二）???????????
Exams affect the whole family. As teenagers bury themselves in textbooks, parents have to behave like saints(圣人), ignoring doubts—is he actually studying up there, or just playing online games? Forget any practical help around the house.? “He’s sitting at the kitchen table reading the TV guide，” says the mother of a 15-year-old boy. “But when I ask if he can take the rubbish out, he looks very angry and says, ‘But I’m revising’．” Chloe, 16, comes from a large family and finds it is hard to revise. “I become angry easily，” Chloe says.“I camplain to my mum that there’s too much noise and too much mess.”
Beyond these practical? considerations, parents are confused about how much they should get involved. Some call for expert help. Others buy lots of practice exam papers. But you may use your skills to spur your children. Anne, 18, admits that the greatest driving force for revision is being in competition with her twin sister. My mother always says my sister is better than me.
Bribery(行贿)is not unknown.“Some parents offer their children material or cash rewards，” says Mike Evans, the author of How To Pass Your Exams.? “This may achieve the required result in some cases, but I think it does nothing for the longer-term aim, which I believe is to encourage them to take responsibility for their own personal development.”
“I deal with exam stress all the time，” says an experienced teacher.? “Basically, the pupils and I have an? agreement to convince the parents that all is going well. Then? the parents back off and everything gets better.” Her fantasy? solution would keep parents away for six weeks so that they don’t pass on pre exam stress to their children.

A.Encourage. B.Punish. C.Comfort. D.Educate.
（3）What is Mike Evans’s attitude towards parents’ bribing children for better grades? （ ）
A.Supportive. B.Opposed. C.Objective. D.Unknown.
（4）The experienced teacher sent parents away because she________.
A.would like to give parents a great surprise

C.everything went well in the school
D.didn’t want parents to bring stress to children

???? Will house-robots replace housewives? Scientists believe that the house-robots will replace housewives in the future with the rapid developent of science so that housewives will be freed fro daily boring housework and enjoy a better life.
????? I agree with the author to a large easure. I consider that the use of robots eans the social developent of science and technology because robots can free people fro such dull housework. What’s ore, soe high-intelligence robots can be designed to take care of the faily reebers, such as babies and elderly ones as well. However, it is still too expensive to use the achine nowadays, which will cost a lot to repair it when it is out of order. Furtherore, the achine oves slowly, unable to counicate with people in a real sense. Not every faily can afford a high-intelligence robot.
????? In brief, robots are useful for our failies. But it should be built like huans, and it should not be too expensive. I think it will take quite a long tie to actually bring the house-robots into our failies.

???? Will house-robots replace housewives? Scientists believe that the house-robots will replace housewives in the future with the rapid developent of science so that housewives will be freed fro daily boring housework and enjoy a better life.
????? I agree with the author to a large easure. I consider that the use of robots eans the social developent of science and technology because robots can free people fro such dull housework. What’s ore, soe high-intelligence robots can be designed to take care of the faily reebers, such as babies and elderly ones as well. However, it is still too expensive to use the achine nowadays, which will cost a lot to repair it when it is out of order. Furtherore, the achine oves slowly, unable to counicate with people in a real sense. Not every faily can afford a high-intelligence robot.
????? In brief, robots are useful for our failies. But it should be built like huans, and it should not be too expensive. I think it will take quite a long tie to actually bring the house-robots into our failies.
