One day, I was helping a student who was struggling to learn the letter sounds. I used flash cards with letters and pictures to help. I showed him the letters and a picture of a snake to call attention to the sound. Sss, snake. Next came the letter c. He couldn’t remember the sound, so I showed him a picture of a cat. When I asked him to tell me the sound of c, he looked puzzled and said, “Meow?”PIANO WOMANWhen I saved a piano from an old house, I had not considered that I would need assistance moving it from the back of my pickup truck into my home. Finally, I had to drive around with it for several days. One day, a police officer pulled me over. He had seen me before and asked why I was driving around with a piano in my truck bed. I told him that my car radio had broken and I couldn’t afford a new one. He laughed—and he let me go without a ticket. SEE DAD RUNLike most dads, I imagine, I’d always assumed that my three-year-old son looked up to me as a superhero. Until one day, that is, when, having picked him up from school, I saw that we were about to miss our bus and decided to make a run for it. Once we were safely aboard, I noticed that my son was staring at me with his big blue eyes. “What’s the matter?” I asked him, still out of breath. He whispered, “Daddy, I didn’t know you could run.”____________________After moving to the country, my three-year-old daughter and I were often alone in our house. Because we lived in a rural area with no close neighbors, I wanted to make sure she would be able to call 911 in the event that something happened to me. After instructing her, I decided to test her: “OK, what would you do if you found me on the floor and you couldn’t wake me up?” I could see her little brain working. To my surprise, she said, “I would go into the kitchen and eat anything I want.”51. Why did the police officer laugh and let the woman go without a ticket?A. Because the woman didn’t break any traffic rules on purpose that day.B. Because the woman was wise enough to give him appropriate explanations.C. Because the police officer was so kind and friendly that he wanted to help her.D. Because the police officer had seen the woman for several times before.52. Which of the following is the most suitable to be put in the blank of the text? A. CLOSE NEIGHBORS B. YOUNG DAUGHTERC. SNACK EMERGENCY D. CALL 911-HELP53. What do you think of the stories?A. Fun B. Caring C. Confusing D. Amazing6BA saying is a short, clever expression that usually contains advice or expresses some obvious truth. Though the meanings shown for sayings are believed to be generally accepted, for some sayings sometimes they may go otherwise.No Use Crying Over Spilt(溢出的) Milk. Crying can help people recover from disappointment. True, it’s dangerous to live on the past, but holding back those spilt-milk tears could hurt even more. A survey of more than 5,000 weepers in the Journal of Social and Clinical Psychology suggests that people who do not cry only feel worse. Or, to put it another way, “Sometimes we should cry over spilt milk,” writes Aaron Ben-Ze’ev, a philosophy professor at the University of Haifa in Israel. “Otherwise, how will we learn to value milk, and how will we avoid spilling it again?”You Catch More Flies with Honey than with Vinegar. Vinegar(醋) is a fly magnet. If you’ve ever endured a fruit fly(蒼蠅 ) invasion in your home, a bowl of vinegar was likely your first line of defense. Researchers from Northwestern University found that “The hungrier a fly gets, the quicker it gives in to vinegar”.Money Can’t Buy Happiness. Yes, it can. Happiness is going by no matter what your bank account looks like, but research shows that money does, in fact, give you short-term bursts of joy—if you spend wisely. Experiences such as concerts or holidays have been shown to bring greater happiness than shopping. People who spend money on others are also measurably happier than those who treat themselves. So do yourself a favour: buy happiness for someone else.Pick the Low-Hanging Fruit First (“Low-hanging fruit” refers to easy-to-reach fruit or easy-to-finish tasks). Lower fruit is often the last to grow fully. “Fruit that is high up, exposed to the sun, develops the fastest,” says Gennaro Fazio, a plant geneticist(基因?qū)W家) for the USDA’s Agricultural Resource Service, “and you want to pick the low-hanging fruit last, so it has more time to develop.” What’s more, “Starting at the top makes the job easier,” says Henry Rueda, an apple-picking professional. When pickers harvest from top to bottom, the bags of fruit they carry around their necks and shoulders grow heavier as they move downwards.54. Which of following statements is supported by Gennaro Fazio?A. The low-hanging fruit is often the last that we are supposed to pick.B. The first goals set for yourself should be easier to achieve than other goals.C. Workers enjoy the ease with which the lower fruit can be picked in the tree.D. Every situation is different and easy pickings that count are done first.55. According to the article, the writer may argue that ________.A. one’s words can never be taken back just like the spilt milkB. money is not a good servant but a bad master when it speaksC. blindly believing the whole book is worse than having no bookD. flies are much fonder of honey than vinegar when they’re hungry56. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?7A. What Are the Household Sayings for?B. What Are Wrong with These Sayings?C. Where Are These Well-known Sayings from?D. How Can These Sayings Be Understood?CSome bats sing just as birds and humans do. But how they learn their calls and melodies is a mystery—one that scientists will try to solve by researching the genes of more than 1,000 bat species.The project, called Bat 1K, was announced on 14 November at the annual meeting of the Society for Neuroscience in San Diego, California. Its organizers also hope to learn more about the flying mammals’ echolocation ability—the ability to find directions in the dark; their strong immune systems that can defend against Ebola, a deadly virus; and their relatively long lifespans.“The genomes of all these other species, like birds and mice, are well-understood,” says an expert at the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics in Nijmegen, the Netherlands. “But we don’t know anything about bat genes yet.”Some bats show babbling behavior, including barks, chatter, screeches, whistles and trills, says Mirjam Kn?rnschild, a behavioral ecologist at the Free University of Berlin. Young bats learn the songs and other sounds from older male tutors. They use these sounds during courtship and mating, when they seek food and as they defend their territory against rivals.Scientists have studied the vocal sounds of only about 50 bat species so far, Kn?rnschild says, and they know much less about bats’ communication than birds’. Four species of bat have so far been found to learn vocal sounds from each other, their fathers and other adult males, just as a child gradually learns how to speak from its parents. Genetic studies have discovered at least one gene in bats that is linked to speech and language, called FOXP2. The gene is also known to have a role in how people learn language, and in vocal learning in song-birds. Researchers working on the Bat 1K project expect to find that other genes are also involved in communication, and that many more bat species have the ability to learn songs, calls and other sounds. “It’s not a rare trait,” Kn?rnschild says. “I’m becoming convinced that all bats are more or less the same in vocal learning.”Bats’ echolocation ability has been studied for many years, partly because of its applications to sonar and radar. But scientists know very little about the vocal communication and social behaviour that drive how bats learn their songs and sounds, says Michael Yartsev, a neurobiologist at University of California, Berkeley. The study of vocal learning in bats is “nearly completely untapped”, he says—comparing it to the state of research into birdsong 60 years ago. 57. The project, Bat 1K is carried out mainly to ________.A. do research on the genes of more bat speciesB. research bats’ ability to find directions in the darkC. study the way bats learn their calls and songs8D. learn more secrets about bats’ longer lifespans58. From Para 5 and 6, we can safely infer that ________.A. scientists have studied only approximately 50 bat species so farB. of all bats, only four species learn vocal sounds from each otherC. more than one gene linked to speech and language has been discoveredD. the gene FOXP2 has something to do with human language learning59. Which of the following is the word “trait” in Paragraph 6 closest to in meaning?A. quality B. behavior C. habit D. gene60. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. Scientists try to know more about bat genes.B. Scientists seek keys to bats’ vocal sounds. C. All bats are almost the same in vocal learning.D. Bats sing just as birds and human beings do.DAutomated cars—once a far-off dream—have in recent years left the field of science fiction and come closer to the American garage. Leading U.S. automakers say that real self-driving cars are coming within two decades and they’re fighting to stay competitive.These advances promise relief to people sick of two-hour driving and heavy traffic, but they leave open questions for a society shaped around the automobile for the past century. Perhaps no area is more uncertain than the environmental impact of automated vehicles. One report from the Department of Energy found that automated vehicles could reduce fuel consumption(油耗) for passenger cars by as much as 90%, or increase it by more than 200%.That’s a huge difference considering that more than a quarter of U.S. greenhouse-gas emissions(排放) come from transportation, according to an expert. And scientists say reducing that figure will be the key to dealing with man-made climate change.“There’s a great energy influence possible,” says Jeff Gonder, a transportation researcher. “But there remains great uncertainty in the degree and even direction.”Depending on various factors, it remains to be seen how a future with automated cars will take shape. Most importantly, researchers expect that automated cars will lead to a sharp increase in the average miles traveled by a given vehicle. Key problems with driving a car, such as tiredness, age or drunkenness(醉酒), will disappear, and car owners will be free to travel further and more frequently. Workers may choose to live even further away from the office, deciding to sleep in the car or use that time to work out in it. And, once in the city, car owners might guide their vehicle to drive around in circles rather than pay for parking.“A lot of the uncertainty comes from not knowing how the value of people’s time is going to change,” says Don MacKenzie, a researcher at the University of Washington. “There will be some kind of cost connected with the travel, but it’s much less than it is today.”Researchers have tried to create a model of how humans might respond to automated driving using surveys, driving data and lab experiments, but eventually the great number of 9choices and assumptions involved in transportation has made reaching exact conclusions about driving behavior difficult.Engineers say that the largely accident-free vehicles can remove safety equipment, such as antilock brakes and airbags, which has increased the weight—and fuel consumption—of vehicles. Automated cars can also travel closer together, allowing them to take advantage of aerodynamics(氣體力學). Trucking fleets(車隊) are already trying to take advantage of this fuel-saving measure.61. What message can we get from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2?A. Some automated cars have better qualities than others.B. One automated vehicle may consume much less fuel than another.C. We are not sure about the environmental impact of automated cars.D. We cannot make sure of the quality of automated cars.62. Which is not the reason for a sharp increase in the miles run by a certain self-driving car?A. More convenient roads and fewer
