Outside the supermarket entrance, anybody who walks past can smell warm, fresh bread. That makes us3and ready to buy lots of food，not just bread.Now youre inside and, of course, a small basket would be fine,4all they have are trolleys. And the problem is that it 5sad and lonely with just one or two products inside a big trolley.

Especially, dogs can recognize(识别) the difference between a happy and an angry human face, a study published Thursday in Current Biology suggests.Its the first research to show that dogs are sensitive (敏感) to our facial expressions, says the author Ludwig Huber at the University of Veterinary Medicine, Vienna.In the Austrian study, 20 different kinds of pet dogs were taught to play a computer game through a series of exercises. In the first step, the dogs were shown two touch screens, one with a circle and one with a square. Through the exercises, they learned that a treat would appear if they chose the right one.Eleven of the 20 dogs were able to catch on to rules of the game and make it to the next test, where they were shown photos of happy and angry faces. The dogs were rewarded if they picked certain expression correctly. During the test, the dogs were shown only the upper half or the lower half of a face.It was easier to teach the dogs to choose a happy expression than an angry one, suggesting the dogs do indeed understand the meaning behind the expression, Huber says.As a test, the dogs were then presented with: the same half of the faces they saw during the training, but from different people， the other half of the faces used in training， the other half of new faces， the left half of the faces used in training.In the cases, the dogs chose the right answer 70 to 100 percent of the time.Dogs who had been trained to recognize an expression of anger or happiness on the upper part of a face could find the same expression when shown only the lower part. Huber says, The only possible explanation is that they recall from memory of everyday life how a whole human face looks when happy or angry.Dog owners know their pets not only recognize emotions but also understand the feelings.（1）The passage may come from . A . a news reportB . a science magazineC . a pets guideD . a history book（2）How many dogs in the research could understand the rules of the game? A . 11B . 20C . 70D . 100（3）During the test, the dogs were presented with the following faces .the other half of some new facesthe right half of the faces used in trainingthe other half of the faces used in trainingthe same half of the faces they saw but from different peopleA . B . C . D . （4）Why was it easier to teach the dogs to choose a happy expression than an angry one? A . Because dogs wanted to make a happy expression.B . Because dogs were rewarded for picking a happy expression.C . Because dogs saw a happy expression more often from their owners.D . Because dogs indeed didnt understand the meaning behind the expressions.（5）What can we learn from the passage? A . Dog owners know if their pets are happy.B . Dog owners know how to train their dogs.C . Dogs can make different facial expressions.D . Dogs can understand their owners feelings.14. （8分）阅读理解 For years, the word popular, has been demonized(妖魔化)and made the same as mini-skirt-wearing, hair-coloring cheerleader types like Regina George in Mean Girls. Today, teachers and parents inform children that being popularis irrelevant(不相干的), unnecessary and a sure shortcut to upset, misery, and death. And some people describe popular students as the ones most likely to bum out and end up as nobody, while their less well-liked counterparts enjoy a life of wealth and fame.However, the Oxford English Dictionary defines(定义)popularity as: TheState or condition of being liked, admired, or supported by many people This sounds like a lovely thing, and is not related to such behaviors as burn books” or three-way phone calls in Mean Girls.In fact, it is a truth widely acknowledged that young people who feel liked or supported are more likely to obtain impressive achievements than those who feel lonely, unvalued, and irrelevant socially.So why, then, is popularity given such a bad name? Why is this state of well-likedness so demonized?Basically, the hatred (恨) shown toward what appears to be a very pleasant thing is caused by lack of understanding. When we, as viewers, see characters such as Regina Georges on TV and in films, we recognize them to be popular. These characters, if not exactly liked, greatly admired by their peers(同伴).Our mistake comes when we try to understand their cruel and unkind actions using the deduction(推论)method.Humans are imperfect, and even the most intelligent mind is open to dishonesty through a very small slip in logic. Unfortunately, this occurs here with branding results.We first learn that a character is popular. Since this is important to the plot, it is constantly emphasized, leading it to be the most common thing in our minds when we consider the character.Later, we see that character do something unkind. The characters most noticeable characteristic (in our minds) is his/her popularity. And now the character is mean and unkind. This character is popular.Therefore, we jump to a quick conclusion (结论) that popular people are mean and unkind.Things such as improper behaviors and rumor-spreading are terrible and should always be seen in a very serious light. However, it is important to recognize that these are not the behaviors of popular people, but bullies.So, in summary, do not be afraid to be popular and have many friends. If you are kind to everyone and treat others with respect, there will be few who can criticize you, for being widely liked is not a curse but a blessing. Just remember that being popular does give you a degree of power, and with great power comes a large electricity bill!（1）The writer mentions the definition of popularity in paragraph 2 to _. A . bring up his opinionB . give an exampleC . come to a conclusionD . offer his suggestion（2）What can we learn from the passage? A . Being popular might offer a shortcut to a life of wealth.B . Students who feel supported have a better chance to achieve more.C . Popular students are usually famous but mean and unkind.D . The less well-liked people consider being popular as something bad.（3）Paragraph 4 and 5 are mainly about _. A . the importance of being admired by peersB . the ways to clear up some misunderstandingC . the advantages and disadvantages of being popularD . the reasons why people show hatred to being popular（4）The writer probably agrees that _. A . cheerleader types will surely end up as nobodyB . being popular is unnecessary for most studentsC . treating others with kindness is beneficial to popular peopleD . famous people are likely to make mistakes and be criticized15. （10分）根据短文内容，判断正误。（A）When we feel the ground moves suddenly, it means that an earthquake may come. Many of the earthquakes first come under the sea and then happen anywhere on the earth. Especially they often happen near the mountains and seas such as Wenchuan, Japan and Indonesia.When an earthquake happens, its very easy to cause a tsunami(海啸). Houses fall down, many people are injured and even died.Now scientists are trying their best to study earthquakes. They make maps to show the “earthquake belts(地震带)”. So the houses there must be quite strong.We believe that scientists will be able to tell us when and where an earthquake will happen in the near future. Also, they can tell us what to do and how to do. People can even use earthquakes to do something for us humans.（1）Japan is a country with many earthquakes because it is near the sea.（2）In areas in the “earthquake belts”, people build strong houses for safety.（3）Scientists can prevent earthquakes happening.（4）Many people lost their lives in the earthquakes because they didnt help each other.（5）Sometimes an earthquake happens with a tsunami.五、 词汇。 (共2题；共12分)16. （5分）根据句意及首字母或汉语提示完成单词。（1） Why are you s_?
