【題目】

Two children stood outside the door with old coats.

"Any old papers, lady?" asked one of them.

I was busy. I wanted to say no, but I saw that

their shoes had holes in them and that they were wet.

"Come in and I'll make you a cup of hot tea." They

came in, saying nothing. Their shoes left prints on the floor.

I gave them tea and bread to protect them from the cold outside. Then I went back to the kitchen and started my housework again.

The silence in the living room surprised me. I looked in.

The girl held the empty cup in her hands, looking at it. The boy asked me in a low voice, "lady, are you rich?"

Am I rich? Oh, no! I looked at the old things in my room.

The girl put her cup back in its saucer (茶碟)carefully and said, "Your cups match(相配)your saucers."

Then they left, holding their papers against the wind. They hadn't said thank you. They didn't need to. They had done more than that. They had reminded me that I had so much to thank for. The blue cups and saucers were simple, but they matched. The potatoes and meat before me, a roof over my head, my husband with a job-these things matched, too.

I moved the chairs back from the fire and cleaned the living room. The prints of their small shoes were still wet on my floor. I let them be. I wanted them there to remind me how rich I was.

【題目】

Monarch butterflies from eastern Canada make the most amazing journey in the insect world. Each year, this butterfly travels about 3 000 miles to its winter home in central Mexico(墨西哥). How can it fly so far? And why does it make this long and dangerous trip? Scientists still don't have an answer.

For many years, people in Mexico wondered where the orange and black butterflies came from every winter. Then, in 1937, a scientist started to follow and study the butterflies. For the next 20 years, he discovered that one butterfly started its journey in Canada. Four months later, it arrived in Mexico.

The length of the butterflies' trip is only one part of the mystery. Another amazing thing is that the butterflies always return to the same area in central Mexico.

How do the butterflies find their way back to the same place? This is an interesting question because only every fourth generation() makes the trip south. In other words, the butterfly that travels to Mexico this year is the great great grandchild of the butterfly that traveled there last year.

Each year, four generations of a Monarch butterfly family are born. Each generation of the family has a very different life. The first generation is born in the south in late April. It slowly moves north, reproduces(繁衍), and then dies. Each of these generations of butterflies lives for generations are born, reproduces, and die. Each of these generations of butterflies lives for only two or five weeks. In the autumn, the fourth generation of butterflies is born. This generation has a much longer life. It lives for about eight months. This generation of butterflies makes the amazing journey back to the winter there, and in the spring they reproduce and then die. Their offspring will be the first generation of the next circle of life.

Today, people are still studying the Monarch butterfly. But they are not clear about everything.

A. Family of Monarch butterflies

B. Mystery of Monarch butterflies

C. Monarch butterflies' birthplace

D. Monarch butterflies' winter home

2It took the scientist ________to find out that Monarch butterflies came from Canada.

A. 20 years B. four months C. five weeks D. eight months

3We know that the ________ generation of Monarch butterflies travel back to central Mexico.

A. first B. second C. third D. fourth

4The underlined word “offspring” in the passage is closest in meaning to ________.

A. seasons B. butterflies C. children D. parents

5Which statement is TRUE according to the text?

A. Monarch butterflies spend winter in eastern Canada.

B. The four generations have the same length of life.

C. Some generations die on the way north of Canada.

D. Scientists are clear about everything of the butterflies.

【題目】

Science is proving what pet owners have long believed: Dogs understand what we're feeling. Especially, dogs can recognize(識(shí)別) the difference between a happy

and an angry human face, a study published Thursday in Current Biology suggests.

It's the first research to show that dogs are sensitive (敏感) to our facial expressions, says the author Ludwig Huber at the University of Veterinary Medicine, Vienna.

In the Austrian study, 20 different kinds of pet dogs were taught to play a computer game through a series of exercises. In the first step, the dogs were shown two touch screens, one with a circle and one with a square. Through the exercises, they learned that a treat would appear if they chose the right one.

Eleven of the 20 dogs were able to catch on to rules of the game and make it to the next test, where they were shown photos of happy and angry faces. The dogs were rewarded if they picked certain expression correctly. During the test, the dogs were shown only the upper half or the lower half of a face.

It was easier to teach the dogs to choose a happy expression than an angry one, suggesting the dogs do indeed understand the meaning behind the expression, Huber

says.

As a test, the dogs were then presented with:the same half of the faces they saw during the training, but from different people,

the other half of the faces used in training,

the other half of new faces,

the left half of the faces used in training.

In the cases, the dogs chose the right answer 70 to 100 percent of the time.

Dogs who had been trained to recognize an expression of anger or happiness on the upper part of a face could find the same expression when shown only the lower part. Huber says, "The only possible explanation is that they recall from memory of everyday life how a whole human face looks when happy or angry."

Dog owners know their pets not only recognize emotions but also understand the feelings.

1The passage may come from .

A. a news report B. a science magazine

C. a pets guide D. a history book

2How many dogs in the research could understand the rules of the game?

A. 11 B. 20 C. 70 D. 100

3During the test, the dogs were presented with the following faces .

the other half of some new faces

the right half of the faces used in training

the other half of the faces used in training

the same half of the faces they saw but from different people

A. ①③④ B. ①②③ C. ①②④ D. ②③④

4Why was it easier to teach the dogs to choose a happy expression than an angry one?

A. Because dogs wanted to make a happy expression.

B. Because dogs were rewarded for picking a happy expression.

C. Because dogs saw a happy expression more often from their owners.

D. Because dogs indeed didn’t understand the meaning behind the expressions.

5What can we learn from the passage?

A. Dog owners know if their pets are happy.

B. Dog owners know how to train their dogs.

C. Dogs can make different facial expressions.

D. Dogs can understand their owners' feelings.

【題目】

Parents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers. But during the summer vacation in 2017. Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their son: suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. "The door to his room is always shut, "Joanna noted

Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter. "She used to sit with me on the sofa and talk, "said Mark. "Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady.”

Before age 11,children like to tell their parents what’s on their minds. ”in fact, parents are first on the list, "said Michael Riera , writer of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers.“This completely changes during the ten years, "Riera explained. "They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents- last.”

To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give their children a mental (心靈)break, for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children, is a better way to know them.

1“The door to his room is always shut "means that .

A. the son is busy with his homework

B. the son doesn’t want to talk to his parents

C. the son needs some sleep

2What troubles Tina and Mark most is that their daughter .

A. only talks to her teachers

B. asks for too much money

C. talks little in class

A. Friends B. Teachers

C. Parents D. Brothers and sisters
