Pleasepleaseplease.”Mom gave in, as she usually did with John. My little brother had a mild form of hemophilia(血友病). Four years earlier, hed almost bled to death from a routine tonsillectomy(扁桃体切除术). Wed all been careful with him since then. “All right, John,” Dad said. “Well keep Rusty. But hes your responsibility.” “Deal!” And thats how Rusty came to live with us. He was Johns dog from that very first moment, though he tolerated the rest of us. John kept his word. He fed, watered and cleaned the messy-looking animal every day. I think he liked taking care of something rather than being taken care of. Over the summer, Rusty grew into a big, handsome dog. He and John were constant panions. Wherever John went, Rusty was by his side. When school began, Rusty would walk John the six blocks to elementary school, then e home. Somehow, he sensed that John shouldnt play like the other boys. He was very protective. When John and his best friend Bobby wrestled, Rusty monitored their play with a watchful eye. If John were on top, fine. If Bobby got John down, Rusty would hop over, grab Bobbys collar and pull him off. Bobby and John thought this game great fun. In the spring, John got an afternoon paper route. Hed e home from school, fold his papers and take off on his bike to deliver them. He always took the same streets, in the same order. Of course, Rusty delivered papers, too. One day, for no particular reason, John changed his route. Instead of turning left on a street as he usually did, he turned right. Thump!. Crash!. A screech of brakes Rusty sailed through the air. Someone called us about the accident. I had to pry John from Rustys lifeless body so that Dad could bring Rusty home.“Its my fault,” John said over and over.” Rusty thought the car was gonna hit me. He thought it was another game.”“The only game Rusty was playing was the game of love,” Dad said. “You both played it well.”John sniffled. “Huh!”“I want him back,” John wailed. “My Rustys gone!”“No, he isnt,” Dad said, hugging John and me. “Rusty will stay in your memories forever.” And he has.56. We can infer from the passage that_.A. Rusty always protected John from being hurt.B. Rusty just listened to and tolerated John at home.C. Rusty was weled by the whole family at first.D. Rusty walked John to school and then waited there.57. From the passage we can see that Rusty is a _ dog.A. faithful（loyal ） B. tender C. mature D. merciful58. Which of the following is NOT true?A. John and Bobby are quite fond of wrestling.B. John delivered papers with Rusty in the spring.C. Rusty thought it was a game when the car came towards John.D. John deliberately changed the route that day to play with Rusty.59. The underlined word “pry” in the last part probably means_.A. prevent B. separate C. seize D. protect BWere looking for personality HAVE you ever made a profit from walking a dog? Do you like working alone or in groups? Have you ever set a world record in anything? Answer those the right way and you could land a job at Google.In its desperate search for more engineers and sales representatives for its rapidly growing business, Google has created an automated way to look through the more than 100,000 job applications it receives each month. Instead of simply looking for people with straight-As, its starting to ask applicants to fill out an in-depth online survey that examines their attitude, behavior and personality. Questions concern everything from the age the applicant first got excited about puters to whether the person has ever tutored. They also seek out non-traditional information. This can include what magazines the applicant subscribes to or what pets that person has. The answers are fed into a series of formulas created by Googles mathematicians that spit out a score from zero to 100. This is meant to predict how well a person will fit into the freewheeling, petitive pany culture. Google has doubled its number of employees in each of the last three years. As we get bigger, we find it harder and harder to find enough people, said Laszlo Bock, Googles vice-president for people operations. Interviews are a terrible predictor of performance. With traditional hiring methods, we might overlook some of the best candidates, he said. The online survey is based on the answers to 300 questions sent out last summer to every employee at the head office in Californias Silicon Valley. Now about 15 per cent of applicants take the survey. It will be used for all applicants starting this month. Whether this method will help Google find the right people is yet to be seen. We wanted to cast a very wide net, said Bock. It is not unusual to walk the halls here at our office in Silicon Valley and bump into dogs. Maybe people who own dogs have some personality trait that is useful.60. In terms of finding the right people, the passage is mainly about _.A. Googles attempts B. Googles successC. Googles results D. Googles failure61. What is not included in the online survey?A. attitude B. behavior C. grades D. personality.62.Why does the author mention dog owners?A. Dog owners like to work at Google.B. Dog owners make the workplace happier.C. Dog owners are more clever than other people.D. Dog owners have a non-traditional personality.CBoys schools are the perfect place to teach young men to express their emotions and involve them in activities such as art, dance and music.Far from the traditional image of a culture of aggressive masculinity (阳刚), the absence of girls gives boys the chance to develop without pressure to conform to a stereotype. a US study says.Boys at single-sex schools were said to be more likely to get involved in cultural and artistic activities that helped develop their emotional expressiveness, rather than feeling they had to conform to the boy code of hiding their emotions to be a real man.The findings of the study go against received wisdom that boys do better when taught alongside girls.Tony Little, headmaster of Eton, warned that boys were being failed by the British education system because it had bee too focused on girls. He criticized teachers for failing to recognize that boys are actually more emotional than girls.The research argued that boys often perform badly in mixed schools because they bee discouraged when their female peers do better earlier in speaking and reading skills.But in single-sex schools teachers can tailor lessons to boys learning style, letting them move around the classroom and getting them to pete in teams to prevent boredom, wrote the studys author, Abigail James, of the University of Virginia.Teachers could encourage boys to enjoy reading and writing with boy-focused approaches such as themes and characters that appeal to them. Because boys generally have more acute vision learn best through touch, and are physically more active, they need to be given hands-on lessons where they are allowed to walk around. Boys in mixed schools view classical music as feminine (女性的) and prefer the modern genre (类型) in which violence and sexism are major themes, James wrote.Single-sex education also made it less likely that boys would feel they had to conform to a stereotype that men should be masterful and in charge in relationships. In mixed schools boys feel pelled to act like men before they understand themselves well enough to know what that means, the study reported. 63. The author believes that a single-sex school would _ .A. force boys to hide their emotions to be real menB. help to cultivate masculine aggressiveness in boysC. encourage boys to express their emotions more freelyD. naturally reinforce in boys the traditional image of a man64. According to the passage, in mixed schools boys _. A. grow up less healthily B. behave less responsiblyC. get an unequal educationD. perform relatively worse65. What does Tony Little say about the British education system?A. It fails more boys than girls academically.B. It focuses more on mixed school education.C. It fails to give boys the attention they need.D. It places more pressure on boys than on girls.66. According to Abigail James, one of the advantages of single-sex schools is _.A. teaching can be designed to promote boys team spirit B. teaching can be made to suit the characteristics of boysC. boys can choose to learn whatever they are interested inD. boys can focus on their lessons without being distractedD People who get a good workout almost daily can add nearly four years to their life spans, according to the first study to quantify the impact of physical activity this way. The researchers looked at records of more than 5,000 middle-aged and elderly Americans and found that those who had moderate to high levels of activity lived 1.3 to 3.7 years longer than those who got little exercise, with men and women benefiting about equally.This shows that physical activity really does make a difference - not only for how long you live but for how long you live a healthy life, said Oscar H. Franco of the Erasmus M.C. University Medical Center in Rotterdam. Being more physically active can give you more time. Previous studies have found that being physically active has a host of health benefits. It reduces the risk of being overweight and of developing many illnesses, improves overall quality of life, and lowers the mortality rate. But the new study is the first to directly calculate the effect on how long people live. People who engaged in moderate activity - the equivalent of walking for 30 minutes a day for five days a week - lived about 1.3 to 1.5 years longer than those who were less active. Those who took on more intense exercise - the equivalent of running half an hour a day five days every week - extended their lives by about 3.5 to 3.7 years, the researchers found. The findings show that even for people who are already middle-aged, exercising more can add years to their lives, Franco said. Other experts said the study was consistent with the growing evidence that exercising on a regular basis is one of the most important things people can do for their health. At the end of the day,
