On May 14th, 2016, three foreigners saved a drowning(溺水的)Chinese girl.
Roman and Krill are Russian first-year college students. That Saturday, they were standing by the river near Shanghai Jianqiao University with their teacher, Bastien, a teacher from France at Jianqiao University. Then they saw someone “swimming”.
The three said the “swimmer” seemed to be drowning. They rushed to help, though they didn't hear any cries, and found a girl in the water.
Roman jumped into the water at once. He swam to the girl and quickly caught her arm. Then Krill came to Roman and held his hand. Bastien held on to the bank with one hand, while holding Krill with the other hand.
“The girl almost pulled us into the water as she tried so hard to get out of the water,” said Bastien.
A video showed that the rescue took less than five minutes. But it was really dangerous.
The girl, 17 ,was a student from a nearby school. The three heroes spent some time with her to make sure she was safe and not hurt. Then the girl was sent to the international students' apartment of Shanghai Jianqiao University. Roman, one of the Russian students, later found he was injured in the back during the rescue. His cellphone also broke after being in the water. Students and teachers at Jianqiao University quickly heard the news. They were all proud of them.

【題目】閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)（A、B、C和D）中選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
Women are friendly. They often share with others. But men are more competitive. They are trying to improve their social status. Why? Researchers have found it's all due to the hormone oxytocin (荷爾蒙催生素). Although known as the love hormone, it affects the sexes differently.
Generally, people believe that the hormone oxytocin is let out in our body in various social situations and our body creates a large amount of it when falling in love or giving birth.
But in a former experiment Professor Ryan found that the hormone is also let out in our body during a negative situation such as envy (嫉妒).
Further researches showed that in men the hormone oxytocin improves the ability to recognize competitive relations, but in women it raises the ability to recognize friendship.
Professor Ryan's recent experiment used 62 men and women aged 20 to 37.
Half of the participants (參與者) received oxytocin. The other half received placebo (安慰劑).
After a week, the two groups switched with participants. They went through the same steps with the other material.
Following each treatment, they were shown some video pictures with different social behavior. Then they were asked to analyze the relations by answering some questions. The questions were about telling friendship from competition. And their answers should be based on gestures, body language and facial expressions.
The results showed that, after treatment with oxytocin, men's ability to correctly recognize competitive relations improved, but in women it was the ability to correctly recognize friendship that got better.
Professor Ryan thus concluded, “Our experiment proves that the hormone oxytocin can raise people's abilities to better tell apart different social behaviors.”
（1）What causes men and women to behave differently according to the text?
A.Placebo.
B.Oxytocin.
C.The gesture.
D.The social status.
（2）What can we learn from Professor Ryan's former experiment?
A.Oxytocin affects our behavior in a different way.
B.Our body lets out oxytocin when we are deep in love.
C.Our body produces oxytocin when we feel unhappy about others' success.
D.Oxytocin improves our abilities to understand people's behavior differences.
（3）Why did Professor Ryan conduct the recent experiment?
A.To test the effect of oxytocin on the ability to recognize social behavior.
B.To know the differences between friendship and competition.
C.To know people's different abilities to answer questions.
D.To test people's understanding of body language.
（4）The author develops the text by _______.
A.explaining people's behavior
B.describing his own experiences
C.telling apart sexual differences
D.discussing research experiments

More than 30,000 people went to the White House on Monday for the 136th Easter Egg Roll (復(fù)活節(jié)滾彩蛋). President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama held the event by inviting thousands of kids to color and look for eggs. The theme(主題) of the day was “Hop Into Healthy, Swing Into Shape.” It was part of the First Lady's “Let's Move!” program to reduce obesity rates (肥胖率) among American kids. Mrs. Obama spoke to young reporters about her goal(目標(biāo)) to get children to eat right and keep moving.
“We are working to make sure that kids born today grow up healthy, learn how to have balanced meals, and get more physical activity into their lives,” she said.
Mrs. Obama said she wants children across the nation to understand that "exercise isn't just hard work, it's play. If you're running around with your dog, you're getting exercise. If you walk up the stairs, that's exercise, But if you're sitting in front of the TV or on a computer game, you're not exercising.”
The First Lady said that for kids who have balanced meals most of the time, having a special snack, like chocolate, will not hurt." And if you are active, you can splurge (揮霍) a little more," she said. Mrs. Obama's favorite "splurge food" is French fries. But she balances her splurging by exercising almost every day. She loves to play tennis and she practices yoga.
“A lot of kids look up to(敬仰) athletes, and I think it's important for athletes to share their good habits,” Mrs. Obama said. "Kids aren't just going to wake up and be LeBron James. He's practicing and eating right and working out and training. Our athletes can be really good messengers to kids who look up to them--they can say to kids, 'If you really want to be like me, then you really do need to eat your vegetables.'”
（1）The purpose of the “Let's Move!” program is to_______ .
A.help kids keep healthy
B.train more young reporters
C.encourage kids to eat more eggs

（2）“Splurge food” is allowed to be eaten when__________ .
A.you don't hurt yourself
B.you have a special snack
C.you never eat French fries
D.you eat right and stay active
（3）What can we learn from the last paragraph?

【題目】閱讀理解
Workplaces all over the UK are preparing for Christmas and all the traditions and customs that come with it. But will Christmas be a cause for happiness and celebration or embarrassment and disappointment?
One way that colleagues in Britain show their appreciation of each other at this time of year is by doing "Secret Santa" present giving. At that time, people who work together buy each other gifts without saying whom they are from.
Co-workers all write their names on a piece of paper and then organize a lottery in which each workmate takes another colleague's name at random(任意地). Each person then has to buy a present for the colleague whose name they have picked, usually with an agreed price set at a small amount of money such as five or ten pounds.
As the gifts are given without knowing the names of the gift givers, the quality of the presents can be very different; gifts that people received are from tickets to the opera to an air-freshener for a car.
Another common seasonal workplace tradition is the office Christmas party, when workmates put on their most attractive clothes and enjoy lots of free wine.
Although most parties are held without a hitch, sometimes the effects of alcohol(酒精) cause party goers to regret their drunken antics(古怪行為).
The BBC invited people to share their most embarrassing(令人尷尬的) Christmas office party stories, and received hundreds of funny stories, such as the man who split his trousers back to front with his strange dance moves or the drunken lady who spent the entire night with back of her dress tucked into her pants and saw the photos that proved it later at work.
But the worst story must surely come from Stuart Vaines, who got so drunk that he put his boss's head into the toilet. Unsurprisingly, he lost his job the very next day.
（1）By saying this Christmas will cause embarrassment, the author actually refers to_________.
A.the workmate who receives a ticket to the opera
B.the man who receives an air-freshener
C.the lady who tucked the back of her dress in her pants
D.the man who put his boss's head into the toilet
（2）The underlined phrase "without a hitch" in Para.6 most probably means_________.
A.without trouble
B.without an end
C.without free drinks
D.with less people
（3）It is implied in the passage that _________.
A.The gift givers do not know whom they will give gifts to
B.some workmates are not generous enough to buy expensive gifts
C.the BBC is interested in people's funny stories
D.some party-goers will wish they haven't drunk so much
（4）Which of the following might be the best title for the text?
A.Office Parties at Christmas
B.Happiness from Office Parties
C.Celebrations in Workplaces at Christmas
D.Funny Stories from Office Parties
