bad for your health，but simply smelling their cooking smoke might be harmful，too.Scientists reported that at a meeting of the American Chemical Society in San Francisco.Some major restaurants have already changed the way they cook as a result of the research.The findings should also help experts to develop better filtering technologies to make healthier choices in the kitchen.People have been cooking food for more than 100,000 years.Chimneys and windows have already been around since the Dark Ages.Yet，it wasnt until the mid1990s that scientists started studying the components of cooking smoke and how that smoke might increase air pollution.The first study on cooking smoke，carried out about 20 years ago，found that the most and the dirtiest cooking smoke came from hot hamburgers under high heat.Other foods followed far behind，including cooked French fries or baked pizza.In the new study，Kuehn and his colleagues used a new kind of equipment to examine more exactly the cooking smoke that comes out of a large variety of foods being cooked.They found that the dirtiest smoke by far came from fried chicken being cooked with peanut oil.Hot hamburgers came next.So far，people have kept_a_watchful_eye_on the harm of breathing in cooking smoke in the world.Many researches on this subject have been carried out in many countries.As with cigarette smoke，though，the worry is that cooking smoke could get deep into our lungs，where it might cause cancer or other problems.One study in China，also more than 10 years ago，found the highest rates of lung cancer in women，even though men smoked the most cigarettes.Women did more of the cooking there，and the researchers drew a conclusion that the cooking smoke explained that.26Whats the main idea of this passage?AEating fat foods can

would like to know if the test known as the TOEIC is popular in the United States.The TOEIC (Test of English for International Communication)tests the ability of people to communicate in the workplace using everyday English.The Educational Testing Service (ETS) in Princeton，New Jersey，develops and administers the TOEIC.It says more than nine thousand organizations use the test in more than ninety countries.Each year the TOEIC is taken in the United States about twenty thousand times.So how popular does that make it? Well，consider that last year the test was given more than five million times worldwide.Nonnative English speakers take the test to show their English skills.The cost of the test is set locally in each country.The TOEIC is really two tests.People can take one or both of them.While one is a paperandpencil test which tests listening and reading skills，the other test，is given on a computer，testing speaking and writing skills.Eleven questions on the computer test require speaking.Eight other questions require written answers，including an opinion essay.We visited the ETS Web site for more information about the TOEIC.But one of the first things we saw was a warning against “phishing scams” (钓鱼欺骗) that use emails，which claim to be from the ETS，to make people lose personal information or money.Spokeswoman Christine Betaneli advises people to take the TOEIC to be suspicious of any email claiming to be from the ETS.They should be especially suspicious of emails that ask for information that they have already provided for the test.Thats the “Education Zone” for today.Im Bob Doughty.Thank you for listening.31The author wrote the passage to _.Ashow people how to take the TOEICBadvise more people to take the TOEICCoffer suggestions about taking the TOEICDanswer Makis question about the TOEIC【解析】作者意图题。由第一段“.well answer a question from Japan.A listener named Maki would like to know

thousand times.last year the test was given more than five million times worldwide.”不难看出，托业考试很流行。【答案】C33What information can we get from the passage?AMost American natives take the TOEIC.BPeople can just take the paperandpencil test.CIt costs everyone the same money to take the TOEIC.DPeople should email the ETS to take part in the TOEIC.【解析】细节理解题。由第三段“Nonnative English speakers take the test to show their English skills”可知，参加托业考试的人一般是母语非英语的人；由第三段“The TOEIC is really two tests.People can take one or both of them.While one is a paperandpencil test.”可知，托业考试实际上包括两项考试，参加考试的人可以选择考两项中的任意一项或两项考试都参加；由第三段“The cost of the test is set locally in each country.”可知，各国考试费用不尽相同；而文中并未提及参加考试是否要发电子邮件。【答案】B34Which of the following will Christine Betaneli agree with?AThe ETS wont ask people to provide personal information.BOne cant be too careful to deal with the phishing scams.CPeople should pay no attention to the phishing scams.DTOEIC rules should be shown at the ETS website.【解析】推理判断题。由第四段最后两句可知，Christine Betaneli建议参加考试的人对任何电子邮件都应该持怀疑态度，尤其是对待声称来自美国教育学习服务社(ETS)的邮件。故可推知，她认为，对待钓鱼欺骗，多谨慎都不过分。【答案】B35The passage may be from _.Aa radio program Ba TV playCan education magazine Dan English textbook【解析】推理判断题。由第一段“Today on our program”和最后一段“Thats the Education Zone for today.Im Bob Doughty.Thank you for listening.”可推知，本文应该是一个电台英语节目Education Zone的文稿。【答案】ACAt the age of six months babies can sit up.According to psychologists，they have already developed a moral sense and can tell the difference between good and evil.A series of experiments is challenging the traditional views of many psychologists and social scientists that babies are born without a moral sense and that our morality is shaped by our parents and experiences.Instead，they suggest that the moral sense may be in the brain at birth.Professor Paul Bloom，a psychologist at Yale University，said：“A growing body of evidence suggests that humans do have a moral sense from the very start of life.With the help of well designed experiments，you can see moral judgment and moral feeling even in the first year of life.”For one study，Professor Paul Bloom got babies aged between six months and a year to watch a puppet show in which a simple，colorful wooden shape with eyes tries to climb a hill.Sometimes the shape is helped up the hill by a second toy，while other times a third character pushes it down.In another experiment，the researchers invented a oneact morality play，in which a toy dog tries to open a box.The dog is joined by a teddy bear who helps him lift the lid，and another teddy bear who sits on the box.After watching these shows several times，the babies showed a strong preference to helpful good charactersthe one who helped to climb the hill and the one who helped to open the boxand refused unhelpful bad ones.Some babies even gave their own punishment with a hit on the bad puppets head.Although the studies appear to show that morality is hardwired into babies brains，some psychologists urged caution.Dr Nadja Reissland said “The babies might just prefer to see things go up rather than down.In the second test，perhaps the bear closes the box to prevent the dog from getting in there because there is something dangerous inside.It is like a mother keeping children out of an area where there is something harmful.”36According to the experiments，at the age of six months babies _.Acan sit up by themselves and speakBhave a sense of good and evilCprefer beautiful toys to ugly onesDknow how to punish the bad guys【解析】细节理解题。根据第一段内容可知，一系列的实验表明六个月大的孩子就拥有了是非感。【答案】B37The traditional opinion about babies and moral senses is that _.Athe moral sense is in the brain at birthBexperiments can improve babies moralityCbabies morality is influenced by parentsDthe moral sense is important to babies【解析】细节理解题。根据第一段中的“A series of experiments is challenging the traditional views of many psychologists and social scientists that babies are born without a moral sense and that our morality is shaped by our parents and experiences.”可知，传统的观点认为，孩子的是非感是受父母和生活经历的影响而后天形成的。【答案】C38How did Professor Paul Bloom come to his conclusion?ABy designing experiments to test this idea.BBy watching how the babies hit their toys.CBy asking the parents of these babies some questions.DBy carrying out all the necessary tests to check the view.【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段中的“With the help of well designed experiments，you can see moral judgment and moral feeling even in the first year of life.”可知，研究人员通过设计实验来证明这种观点，从而得出结论。【答案】A39The researchers let another bear sit on the box so that they could find _.Ahow the dog opened the boxBif the babies would offer their helpCwhether the bear would leave of itselfDwhether the babies would show their hate【解析】推理判断题。从实验后的发现可知，看过几次玩偶的表演以后，小孩子对乐于助人的玩偶表现出强烈的喜爱，而对做坏事的玩偶非常排斥，甚至会击打他们的头。研究人员设计善良的和淘气的两种性格的玩偶角色就是为了试探小孩子对于是非好坏的判断，以及对于善恶的态度。【答案】D40What Dr Nadja Reissland said means _.Aits not completely right to say babies are born with a moral senseBwhat the babies did clearly showed that they could make a moral judgment.Cthe babies didnt like the bear just because their mothers didnt like it，eitherDthe babies knew that helping someone up the hill is better than pushing him down【解析】推理判断题。根据最后一段中Dr Nadja Reissland所说的话可知，孩子们的想法并不一定与研究人员的想法一致，所以不能肯定孩子出生的时候就有是非感。【答案】ADHappy? Angry? Anxious？How can we measure animals emotions? A new study of animals emotions suggests that，as in humans，emotions can tell animals about how dangerous their world is，and guide the choices that they make.The article of the study by Bristol Universitys Professor Mike Mendl is published online.An animal living in an environment where it is often threatened by predators will develop a negative emotion or “mood”，such as anxiety.However，one in an environment with plenty of opportunities to get resources for survival will be in a more positive mood state.The researchers say that these emotional states not only show the animals experiences，they also help it decide how to make choices，especially in unclear situations，which could have good or bad results.An animal in a negative mood state will make a safetyfirst，“pessimistic” response to an unclear eventfor example，it considers a noise in the grass as a signal of a predatorwhile an animal in a positive mood state will benefit from a more “optimistic” response，considering the noise as a signal of prey.Professor Mike Mendl，Head of the Animal Welfare and Behavior research group at Bristol Universitys School of Clinical Veterinary Science，said “Because we can measure animals choices objectively，we can use optimistic and pessimistic decisionmaking as a symbol of the animals emotional state which itself is much more difficult to assess.Recent studies by our group and others suggest that this is a meritorious new approach to a variety of animal species.”“Public interest in animal welfare remains high，with widespread meanings for the way in which animals are treated，used and included in society.To understand how animals experience the world and how they should be treated，we need to better understand their emotional lives.” Mike Mendl said.The researchers believe Professor Mike Mendls study can help them to better understand and assess an animals emotions.41What is the BEST title for the passage?AThe Living Environment of Wild Animals.BThe Best Way to Measure animals emotions.CEmotions Help Animals to Make Choices.DDifferent kinds of animals emotions.【解析】文章标题题。由文章内容特别是第一段中文章的主题句“A new study of animals emotions suggests that，as in humans，emotions can tell animals about how dangerous their world is，and guide the choices that they make.”可知，本文讲的是情感可以帮助动物作选择，故可知答案。【答案】C42When an animal is in a negative mood state，_.Aits response to an unclear event is pessimisticBit will pay little attention to an unclear eventCit is easy for it to make right decisionsDit has more opportunities to get food【解析】细节理解题。由第三段“An animal in a negative mood state will make a safetyfirst，pessimistic response to an unclear event”可知答案。【答案】A43The underlined word “meritorious” in Paragraph 4 has the same meaning as _.Avaluable BuselessCunbelievable Dunexpected【解析】词义猜测题。由画线词前的“Because we can measure animals choices objectively，we can use optimistic and pessimistic decisionmaking as a symbol of the animals emotional state which itself is much more difficult to assess”可知，我们可以利用动物“乐观的”和“悲观的”决定来判定它们所处的情感状态，再结合画线词后的“new approach to a variety of animal species”可知，画线词的意思是“有价值的”。【答案】A44We can infer from the passage that _.Afew people care about animal welfare nowadaysBthe environment can influence animals emotionsCthe animals with positive emotions live longerDthere is no way t
