They describe in the Royal Society journal，Proceedings B，how this could assist in the future study of empathy(同感，共鸣)The work could also help explain if and how computer games might cause children to imitate what they see on screen.Previous studies have already shown contagious yawning in chimpanzeesstimulated by videorecorded footage of yawns.“We wanted to expand on that，” explained Matthew Campbell，a researcher from Emory Universitys Yerkes National Primate Research Center and lead author of the study.“Were interested in using cartoons for presenting stimuli to animals, because we can control all the features of what we show them，” he continued.Although Dr Campbell doesnt think the chimps were “fooled” by the cartoons into thinking they were looking at real chimps, he explained that there was evidence that chimpanzees “process animated(动画的) faces the same way they process photographs of faces”He said, “Its not a real chimpanzee，but it kind of looks like a chimpanzee, and theyre responding to that.”He and his team, including Devyn Carter who designed the cartoons, showed the animals the yawning sequences.“We also had the cartoons doing other movements with their mouths that the chimps often do，” he said.“The chimps showed a lot more yawning during the yawn video than when the control videos were playing.”He told BBC News that the only way he and his colleagues could explain the “very strong difference” they saw was that seeing the yawns was making the animals yawn.20According to the passage, the scientists have found that _Ayawning is a contagious facial expression among chimpsBchimps will imitate a cartoon chimp who is yawningCchimps are able to understand cartoons very wellDchimps like watching cartoons very much21According to the passage we can learn that _Ayawning on both cartoon videos and pictures can make chimps yawnBDevyn Carter led the study about contagious yawningCchildren will also be stimulated to yawn by the videos of chimpsDpeople can control all the features of animals through cartoons22By studying the action of chimps, the scientists hope to _Ateach them more body language of human beingsBlearn how chimps use their brains to studyCcontrol the actions and behaviors of animalsDcreate more charming cartoon characters23The passage is mainly talking about _Aa serious research about chimps body languageBthose contagious gestures of animalsCwhy children imitate what they see on TVDa study about chimps ability of imitating.短文填词Each time we receive help from others, we say “Thank you”.

However, this freedom can easily be abused. Stories about people often attract far more public attention than political events. Though we may enjoy reading about the lives of others, it is extremely doubtful whether we would equally enjoy reading about ourselves. Acting on the contention that facts are sacred, reporters can cause untold suffering to individuals by publishing details about their private lives. Newspapers exert such tremendous influence that they can not only bring about major changes to the lives of ordinary people but can even overthrow a government. The story of a poor family that acquired fame and fortune overnight, dramatically illustrates the power of the press. The family lived in Aberdeen, a small town of 23, 000 inhabitants in South Dakota. As the parents had five children, life was a perpetual struggle against poverty. They were expecting their sixth child and were faced with even more pressing economic problems. If they had only had one more child, the fact would have passed unnoticed. They would have continued to struggle against economic odds and would have lived in obscurity. But they suddenly became the parents of quintuplets, four girls and a boy, an event which radically changed their lives. The day after the birth of the five children, an aeroplane arrived in Aberdeen bringing sixty reporters and photographers. The rise to fame was swift. Television cameras and newspapers carried the news to everyone in the country. Newspapers and magazines offered the family huge sums for the exclusive rights to publish stories and photographs. Gifts poured in not only from unknown people, but from baby food and soap manufacturers who wished to advertise their products. The old farmhouse the family lived in was to be replaced by a new 500, 000 home. Reporters kept pressing for interviews so lawyers had to be employed to act as spokesmen for the family at press conferences. While the five babies were still quietly sleeping in oxygen tents in a hospital nursery, their parents were paying the price for fame. It would never again be possible for them to lead normal lives. They had become the victims of commercialization, for their names had acquired a market value. Instead of being five new family members, these children had immediately become a commodity. 在民主国家里，任何限制新闻自由的企图都理所当然地受到谴责。然而，这种自由很容易被滥用。常人轶事往往比政治事件更能引起公众注意。我们都喜欢看关于别人生活的报道，但是否同样喜欢看关于自己生活的报道，就很难说了。记者按事实至上的论点行事，发表有关别人私生活的细节，有时会给当事人造成极大的痛苦。新闻具有巨大的威力。它们不仅可以给寻常人家的生活带来重大的变化，甚至还能推翻一个政府。下面这户穷人一夜之间出名发财的故事戏剧性地说明了新闻报道的威力。这户人家住在南达科他州一个人口为23，000的小镇上，镇名为阿拜丁。家里已有5个孩子，全家人常年在贫困中挣扎。第6个孩子即将问世，他们面临着更为严峻的经济问题。如果他们只是添了1个孩子，这件事本来就不会引起任何人的注意。这家人会继续为克服经济上的拮据而奋斗，并默默无闻地活下去。但是他们出人意料地生了个五胞胎，4女1男。这事使他们的生活发生了根本的变化。五胞胎降生第二天，一架飞机飞抵阿拜丁，随机带来60名记者与摄影师。这一家迅速出了名。电视摄像机和报纸把消息传送到全国。报纸、杂志出高价向他们购买文字、图片的独家报道权。不但素昧平生的人寄来了大量的礼物，而且婴儿食品、婴儿肥皂制造厂商为了替自己产品做广告也寄来了大量的礼物。这家人住的旧农舍将由一座价值50万美元的新住宅所取代。由于记者纷纷要求会见，他们不得不请了律师充当他们家的发言人举行记者招待会。眼下，五胞胎还静静地躺在医院婴儿室的氧气帐里，他们的父母却为这名声付出了代价，他们再也无法过正常的生活。他们成了商业化的受害者，因为他们的名字具有了市场价值。这些孩子立即成了商品，而不是5个新的家庭成员。*结束 阅读理解Helen Thayer，one of the greatest explorers of the 20th century，loves challenges.She says，“I like to see whats on the other side of the hill.” She has gone almost everywhere to do that.In 1988，at the age of 50，she became the first woman to travel alone to the North Pole.She pulled her own sled(雪橇) piled with 160 pounds of supplies，and during her trip no one brought her fresh supplies.Accompanied(陪伴) only by her dog Charlie，she survived cold weather and meetings with polar bears.In fact，Charlie saved her life when one of them attacked her.Near the end of her trip，a forceful wind blew away the majority of her supplies.The last week of the trip，she survived on a handful of nuts and a little water each day.Helen goes to challenging places not only for adventure，but also for education.Before her Arctic journey，she started a website called Adventure Classroom.On the site，she shares her adventures in order to motivate(激发) students.She explains，“although kids often see the world in a negative way，without hope for their future，we work to inspire them to set goals，plan for success and never give up.”Helen grew up in New Zealand.Her parents were athletes and mountain climbers.Following her parents example，she climbed her first mountain at 9.Later，she climbed the highest mountains in North and South America，the former USSR and New Zealand.In 1996，she took on another challengethe Sahara Desert.She and her husband，Bill，walked 2,400 miles across it！In 2001，she and Bill traveled on foot from west to east through the Gobi Desert in Mongolia.They hope to travel in mainland China into Sichuan and Tibet to study pandas this year.Helen plans to continue taking trips.Shell use her explorations，writing，photography and environmental work to create programs for her Adventure Classroom website.She wants to inspire her students never to stop facing challenges!36We learn from Paragraph 2 that_.AHelen Thayer is the first person to reach the North PoleBHelen Thayer ate nothing during the last week of her tripCHelen Thayer traveled to the North Pole together with her husbandDCharlie prevented Helen being attacked by polar bears37Why does Helen travel to different places worldwide?AFor fun.BFor education.CFor money.DFor fame.38Why did Helen pick up mountain climbing as a child?AShe was eager to go on with her adventures.BShe dreamed of visiting strange land.CHer parents instructed her to do so.DHer parents had great influence on her.39Which of the following places has Helen not visited yet?AThe North Pole.BThe Sahara Desert.CThe Gobi Desert.DSichuan and Tibet.40Which is the best title for the text?AThe Woman Who Loves AdventureBA Famous WomanCA Woman Mountain ClimberDThe Owner of Adventure Classroom36.D 37.B 38.D 39.D 40.A
