Sweetie is a big dog who spends every Friday of the month in the Childrens Area of our local library. Earlier today, I was so lucky to be nearby when she was partnering with a boy who was reading a mystery of Magic Tree House. Every time Sweetie listened to the boy reading the most challenging words, she would softly lick(舔)his hand which was holding the book. With his mom in the background, Sweetie and the young boy shared a l0-minute happy partnership, and he was rewarded by Sweeties great attention to his every word.Next Sweetie had an appointment with the twins who took turns reading poetry. With each girl giggling over the funny words, Sweetie was also smiling with her tongue dropping a bit as they each read. After the 10-minute interaction was done, each girl gave Sweetie a gentle hug and were rewarded by Sweeties foreleg bow.In speaking with Sweeties owner and transportation “captain”, I learned that Sweetie had been specially trained to work as a service dog. She has retired(退休)after a career of wonderful service, and now she is “in her sunset years” in her service at the library.Sweetie has a special resting carpet behind the scenes in the Childrens Area, so that she can refresh herself with fresh water and some food when she is tired and hungry.

As any person suffering from lack of sleep knows, dark circles under the eyes usually stand out after a bad nights sleep.But why do people get these dark eye bags? The answer is both genetic (that is, relating to your DNA) and environmental (a result of your everyday living, such as rubbing your eyes or getting too little sleep), said Dr. Carol Clinton, a skin-care researcher in Dublin, Ohio.But “the biggest reason is genes,” Clinton told Live Science. Eye bags are generally more noticeable in people who, because of genes, have thin or pale skin. When people are tired or very nervous, blood circulation in the eye area bees slow, allowing blood to pool there, Clinton said. Capillaries(毛细血管)stand out, leading to dark eye circles, she said.Besides, eye bags result from eyes fat moving forward. An age-connected increase in fat beneath the eyeballs leads to eye bags. “Anyway, when your eyes fat is moving forward, you may think about having an operation in that area,” Clinton said, “A person can get 9 hours of sleep a night, but still have eye bags because of a genetic development.”In other cases, environmental problems cause eye bags. For example, allergies(过敏)especially seasonal allergiescan cause capillaries to stand out. Getting too much sun can also damage and thin the skin, making dark circles under the eyes easy to see. Besides, eating salty foods can cause the body to hold more water, which makes eye bags worse, according to the Mayo Clinic.12. In Clintons opinion, what is the main cause of the formation of dark eye bags?A. Genes. B. Habits.C. Age. D. The environment.13. What can remove your eye bags according to the text?A. Getting much sun.B. Drinking plenty of water.C. Having an operation on the fat in the eye area.D. Slowing your blood circulation in the eye area.14. What can we learn from the text?A. Its possible to change genes.B. Rubbing your eyes might cause dark eye bags.C. People with thick skin dont get dark eye bags.D. You cant get dark eye bags if you get enough sleep.15. Whats the best title for the text?A. What Can You Do to Protect Your Eyes?B. The Importance of Sleep to Peoples HealthC. Several Measures to Remove Your Eye BagsD. Why Do People Get “Bags” Under Their Eyes?【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. D【解析】这是一篇议论文。本文主要讲了引起黑眼圈的两个主要原因基因和环境,其中最主要的是基因,对于因基因而皮肤薄或白的人来说,眼袋通常更为明显,这就是为什么有人睡九个小时仍然有黑眼圈,环境问题导致的黑眼圈与你的日常生活习惯,饮食等有关。【12题详解】细节理解题。由文中第三段的But “the biggest reason is genes,” Clinton told Live Science可知,Clinton认为导致黑眼圈最主要的原因是基因,故A选项正确。【13题详解】细节理解题。由文中倒数第二段的Anyway, when your eyes fat is moving forward, you may think about having an operation in that area,”可知,消除黑眼圈的办法就是做手术。故C选项正确。【14题详解】细节理解题。由文中第二段的The answer is both genetic (that is, relating to your DNA) and environmental (a result of your everyday living, such as rubbing your eyes or getting too little sleep),揉眼睛属于环境原因引起的黑眼圈,所以揉眼睛会导致黑眼圈。B选项正确。【15题详解】主旨大意题。本文主要讲了引起黑眼圈的原因,故D选项是最佳标题。第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。As a member of the “global village”, an international leader should master various skills.
