Suddenly Peter got stuck in the mire (泥潭) and started getting down. Seeing that, Tom rushed over and saved him.

How would you feel about taking time once a week to read aloud to a dog.Each dog in a reading program experiences a special training session. The trainers also receive training; they learn how to interact(互动)with the students and the dogs. Each program has high standards. There have been many studies of the interactions between humans and dogs that show dogs lower peoples blood pressure and heart rate. People become more relaxed and calmer and will completely forget what they are scared of when they have a dog nearby.Unlike at school, where students sit at desks or tables, students and dogs sit together on special reading mats. Some students lie next to the dogs. Each student reads to one dog, so there is a quiet din of voices in the room. The dog has been taught a command to pay attention to the reader. So when the trainer says something to the dog, it focuses on the student at once. But sometimes, the students read the dogs to sleep!The dogs trainer is also present. He or she watches the dog carefully to make sure that the dog behaves. Sometimes, the trainer gives the dog a break when the dog becomes restless. While the trainer doesnt help with the reading, the trainer talks to the student about the dog and explains how to take care of pets and how to be safe around animals.Students who read to dogs show the benefits of this interaction. They are calmer and can avoid worrying about getting all the words correct. The dog just wants to hear the story. As students learn more about the dogs they read to, they also learn that they have gained a new friend.Not only do students change their reading habits with the dogs during the program, but they also change their school habits. Their reading skills increase by twelve to twenty percent. They start raising their hands and answering questions more often. They pay more attention in class. Some students start arriving at school earlier and are absent less often.Dogs are not just for playing fetch with anymore. Now they can help people become better readers. Next time you visit your local library, be on the lookout for four-legged creatures (生物) who want to hear a good story.（1）The underlined word “command” in Paragraph 3 probably means “_”.A . lessonB . orderC . languageD . rule（2）From the passage, we can learn that this activity can _.A . help students be more helpful and cleverB . help increase reading speed by 8 percentC . make the trained dogs fall asleep quicklyD . make students be more active in school（3）The writer wants to tell us that _.A . the students can benefit from reading with dogsB . the dogs can be trained to understand the storyC . the students can be taught to train dogs wellD . the trainers help students to read correctly（4）What is the change when humans interact with dogs?A . They will be more nervous.B . They will be more excited.C . They will be more aggressive.D . They will be more peaceful.（5）What is probably the best title for this passage?A . Why do we need dogs?B . Where can we read books?C . Who can help us read books?D . How do we change the habits?四、 单词拼写 (共1题；共7分)20. （7分）根据汉语提示将下列英语句子补充完整，每空词数不限。（1）There are many mistakes in your composition.

Like the robots servants in the Star War movies. It looked as if one day robots would do all the boring or dangerous jobs while the humans sat around doing something more interesting. But people were also frightened that robots might become the bosses, not the servants.Has it happened? Youre still unlikely to see a robot walking around your town but that doesnt mean they dont exist. Robots are used in car making, and in areas which are dangerous for humans, in bomb producing and deep-sea discovering, for example. We employ robots instead of doing the job ourselves. According to the report, there are 750,000 working robots in the world today.These working robots definitely look like machines but many scientists are now trying to make robots look more similar to humans. So what will robots be able to do by the year 2030? There are already plans to use robots in hospitals and old peoples homes. Robot nurses will remind patients to take their medicine or tell a doctor if the patient needs attention. But many people are worried about the idea of robots looking after the old, the sick and the very young, separating them from important human contact. It may also create unemployment. It is really possible that robots will be used for many jobs in areas.But can we be sure that the next generation robots will always follow human orders? Or even destroy them? Or will we be able to create robots with emotions? Only the future will tell.Will robots _the world?The imagination of robots in the pastThe images of robots appeared in movies.Robots were thought to work for people.People have a_that robots would become bosses.The use of robots at presentRobots dont take over the world.They _people in some dangerous areas, from car making to deep-sea discovering.Peoples plans and _about robots for the futureRobots will be more like humans.They will be used in more areas, like in the hospital.It may cause problems, like the _of humans from each other and the unemployment.八、 翻译题 (共1题；共1分)24. （1分）为了帮助人们保护湿地, 我们将邀请更多的人来数鸟._九、 书面表达 (共1题；共5分)25. （5分）假如你是哈尔滨第十七中学的学生王琳，请你用英语写一篇短文介绍黑龙江天气。 要求：介绍一年四季的天气；介绍自己喜欢的季节及活动；60词左右。提示词：spring（春天），autumn（秋天）第 20 页 共 20 页参考答案一、 单项选择 (共14题；共28分)1-1、2-1、3-1、4-1、5-1、6-1、7-1、8-1、9-1、10-1、11-1、12-1、13-1、14-1、二、 完形填空。 (共1题；共10分)15-1、三、 阅读理解 (共4题；共38分)16-1、16-2、16-3、16-4、16-5、17-1、17-2、17-3、17-4、17-5、18-1、18-2、18-3、18-4、19-1、19-2、19-3、19-4、19-5、四、 单词拼写 (共1题；共7分)20-1、20-2、20-3、20-4、20-5、五、 语法填空 (共1题；共10分)21-1、六、 动词填空 (共1题；共1分)22-1、七、 任务型阅读 (共1题；共5分)23-1、八、 翻译题 (共1题；共1分)24-1、九、 书面表达 (共1题；共5分)25-1、
