【題目】根據(jù)短文理解，選擇正確答案。
While dog keepers realize their dogs can read their moods accurately,scientists have always been a little doubtful.Now thanks to some researchers at the University of Veterinary Medicine in Vienna,Austria,we finally have some convincing evidence.
For their study,biologist Corson Miller and his team exposed eleven selected dogs to digital images of women that were either angry or happy.Half the dogs were rewarded for touching the screen when shown a happy face,while the other half got their treat for selecting those that appeared angry.
Interestingly,the dogs were not provided with the entire face.Some dogs were shown only upper halves while the others observed lower halves.That's because the scientists believe humans show their emotions on their entire face.
After some training like how to recognize small differences like the wrinkles between the eyes or the changes in their shape that accompany the happy or angry expressions,the dogs were mostly able to identify the correct expression not only on a familiar face but on a strange face.The researchers concluded the dogs were smart enough to read human emotions.
They also found those being trained to read angry expressions took a longer time to learn.They guess it may be because dogs find angry faces disgusting,causing them to withdraw quickly.However,once the smart dogs realized they were getting rewarded,the trepidation seemed to disappear.In fact,the dogs had such a good time playing the computer "game" that scientists had a hard time keeping them away from the touch screens after the study was completed.
The researchers also noticed only dogs with a male owner had a harder time understanding the expressions correctl. Since the touchscreen models were all females, this confirmed what has been observed in previous studies-dogs are more efficient at reading facial expressions of people that are the same gender as their owner.
（1）How did the scientists conduct the experiment?
A.By mixing the selected dogs together.
B.By leaving dogs to women who are either happy or angry.
C.By showing digital pictures of women's happy or angry faces.
D.By rewarding only half of the dogs touching the screen.
（2）Which of the following statements is TRUE about the dogs in the study?
A.The dogs were not all provided with the entire face.
B.The dogs couldn't read strangers facial emotions.
C.According to their size,the dogs were given either upper or lower halves.
D.The dogs could make out small changes accompanying facial expressions.
（3）The underlined word "trepidation" in Paragraph 5 probably means _________ .
A.curiosity
B.horror
C.excitement
D.doubt
（4）How might the results change if the dogs with female owners are shown pictures of male faces?
A.They would be scared away at the sight of the pictures.
B.They found it easy to tell the emotions on the entire face.
C.They could only tell emotions on partial faces rather than on entire faces.
D.They found it hard to tell the moods on the faces of a different gender.

A new article in The Wall Street Journal has given us a deeper understanding of the relationship between what we earn and how we feel.Well,not true.People with higher incomes are happier than those who struggle to get by.To put a smile on your face with your money,you need to spend it strategically.Here are some ways to better spend your bank notes.
Buy experiences,not material things.
People think that experiences are only going to provide temporary happiness,but they actually provide both more happiness and more lasting value that help you better manage your life.

Anything you buy,including a product you think is special will become just another object.Buying small things can give us frequent small pleasures that are different each time they occur,as they forestall（搶先）adaptation.

It's also important to consider how what you're buying will affect how you spend your time.For example,you may have to spend a very long time on the road if you get a big house in the suburb,which will totally lower overall life satisfaction.
Try giving it away.
Elizabeth Dunn,associate professor of psychology at the University of British Columbia in Canada,found that in countries as diverse as Canada,South Africa and Uganda,giving away money consistently made people happier. A.Buy what you like.
B.Be sure to buy time,too.
C.More money,more smiles?
D.Money can't buy happiness,right?
E.Buy lots of little things,rather than one big thing.
F.With no much money to spare,people tend to stick to material goods.

【題目】閱讀理解
To develop one's taste in English，the most effective way is to read English books extensively. However, one may be at a loss to choose the appropriate books，especially as a beginner.I would like to share some of my experience.
My first English novel was Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice，recommended by many English teachers and professors as an ideal book for English learners. But I had great difficulty in understanding the novel，let alone enjoying it. It's not the vocabulary that troubled me，but rather the way Austen constructs sentences，and her way of thinking，which seemed too remote to me at that time. My fading enthusiasm was much recovered after reading Hemingway's novel Farewell to Arms. I particularly liked his brief and lively style. So my first suggestion is，as a beginner, you'd better choose contemporary novels instead of classical ones.
However，reading novels is not the only way to improve your English. English essays can at once inform you，entertain you, and improve your taste in English. The best example is Bertrand Russell's work. Its language is plain, yet you cannot help feeling the elegance and the unique sense of humor. His simple language enables his philosophy(哲理) within the reach of ordinary people. Here comes my second suggestion—essays are indispensable.
Never follow other's opinions blindly，however famous or influential the person might be. As a saying goes，one man's meat is another man's poison. With that in mind，we are sure to find out our favorite writers through reading and develop our fine taste in English.
（1）What made the author's first English novel hard to understand?
A.Complex conversations.
B.Not knowing the social background.
C.The old-fashioned vocabulary.
D.Sentences and Austen's thinking pattern.
（2）Which can best replace the underlined word“ indispensable”?
A.necessary
B.challenging
C.related
D.inspired
（3）What advice does the author give in the last paragraph?
A.Choose books that challenging us most.
B.Read books that are instructive.
C.Don't be affected by other's choices.
D.Compare books before buying.
（4）What is the author's purpose of writing the passage?
A.Give comments on literature works.
B.Tell beginners how to choose English books.
C.Encourage people to read more English books.
D.Recommend first-class books to English learners.

【題目】Recently there has been a heated debate on whether the university should charge a fee to the public who use its sports field. People’s attitudes toward it vary from person to person.

Many people think that universities should serve the public, not just their professors and students. In 【1】 opinion, universities are public assets—they should serve not only the students and faculty 【2】 the general public as well. If there are too many “outside” people on the campus disturbing the order, school officials should do something to control the crowds without【3】(demand) payment. In addition, the university has many other options to control public access【4】 the campus or sports field, such as giving free access cards to 【5】 (resident) of the closest communities, or rotating a limited number of cards between residents. Charging a fee is not a fair option.

However, opponents argue that universities are not 【6】(complete) open spaces for the public to use. They hold the view that charging a fee is the most effective way of controlling access and making the most value out of the university’s resources. A high fee would filter out most of the visitors who have no desire 【7】(use) the sports field for its intended purpose. Besides, universities and their assets are expensive investments, 【8】 (fund) by the government and the public, for the education of students and 【9】 (science) research. If members of the public 【10】(want) to use these facilities, which might cause stress on the university’s resources, it will make sense that they should pay a price. They also think neighboring residents have other options for recreation, such as public parks, if they do not want to pay money to use the sports field.

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解，選擇正確答案。
People who have lost the ability to understand or use words due to brain damage are called aphasics（失語癥患者）.Such patients can be extremely good at something else.From the changing expressions on speakers' faces and the tones of their voices,they can tell lies from truths.
Doctors studying the human brain have given a number of examples of this amazing power of aphasics.Some have even compared this power to that of a dog with an ability to find out the drugs hidden in the baggage.
Recently,scientists carried out tests to see if all that was said about aphasics was true.They studied a mixed group of people.Some were normal;others were aphasics.It was proved that the aphasics were far ahead of the normal people in recognizing false speeches—in most cases,the normal people were fooled by words,but the aphasics were not.
Some years ago,Dr.Oliver Sacks wrote in his book about his experiences with aphasics.He mentioned a particular case in a hospital.Some aphasics were watching the president giving a speech on TV.Since the president had been an actor earlier,making a good speech was no problem for him.He was trying to put his feelings into every word of his speech.
But his way of speaking had the opposite effect on the patients.They didn't seem to believe him.Instead,they burst into laughter.The aphasics knew that the president did not mean a word of what he was saying.He was lying!
Many doctors see aphasics as people who are not completely normal because they lack the ability to understand words.However,according to Dr.Sacks,they are more gifted than normal people.Normal people may get carried away by words.Aphasics seem to understand human expressions better,though they cannot understand words.
（1）What is so surprising about aphasics?
A.They can fool other people.
B.They can tell whether people are lying.
C.They can understand language better.
D.They can find out the hidden drugs.
（2）How did the scientists study aphasics?
A.By asking them to watch TV together.
B.By organizing them into acting groups.
C.By comparing them with normal people.
D.By giving them chances to speak on TV.
（3）What do we learn from this text?
A.What ones says reflects how one feels.
B.Aphasics have richer feelings than others.
C.Normal people often tell lies in their speeches.
D.People poor at one thing can be good at another.
