When a cat is frightened, its heart starts beating faster, its muscles get tense（紧张的）, and there are changes in the chemicals in its blood- stream. Although the cat doesnt 36 this, its body is getting ready for action. If the danger continues, this animal will do one of the two things. It will 37 itself, or it will run away as fast as it can. 38 , when people are excited, angry, scared, or aroused by other emotions, our bodies also go through many 39 changes. Our hearts beat faster, and our muscles get tense. All of these changes make us more alert(警觉的) and ready to react. We, too, get ready to defend(防卫) ourselves 40 run. Human beings, 41 , have a problem that animals never face. If we give way to our feelings and let them 42 , we can get into trouble. Have you ever said something in anger, or hit somebody and regretted it later?

Lets see if Ican name a few proverbs “off the cuff” since I havent prepared for it.English expressions with “pants”People wear pants to cover the lower part of their bodies. We sometimes say that people who arerestless or nervous have “ants in their pants.” They might also “fly by the seat of their pants” - they use their natural sense to do something instead of their learned knowledge. Sometimes, people may “get caught with their pants down” - they are found doing something they should not be doing. And, in every family, one person takes control. Sometimes a wife tells her husband what to do. Then we say “she wears the pants in the family.”When people what to say something about moneyPants usually have pockets to hold things. Money that is likely to be spent quickly can “burn a hole inyour pocket.” Sometimes you need a belt to hold up your pants. If you have less money than usual, you may have to “tighten your belt” - you may have to live on less money and spend your money carefully. But once you have succeeded in budgeting your money, you will have that skill “under your belt.” I always praise people who can save their money and not spend too much. I really “take my hat off to them.” Yet, when it comes to my own money, I spend it “at the drop of a hat” - immediately, without waiting. And sadly, you cannot “pull money out of a hat” - you cannot get money by inventing or imagining it.English expressions with “shoes”Boots are a heavy or strong kind of shoes. People who are “too big for their boots” think they are moreimportant than they really are. I dislike such people. I really do. You can bet your boots on that! Yet, truly important people are hard to replace. Rarely can you “fill their shoes” - or replace them with someone equally effective.English expressions with “shirt”My father is an important person. He runs a big company. He wears a suit and tie and a shirt withsleeves that cover his arms. Some people who do not know him well think he is too firm and severe. They think he is a real “stuffed shirt.” But I know that my father “wears his heart on his sleeve” - he shows his feelings openly. And, he knows how to “keep his shirt on” - he stays calm and never gets angry or too excited. 56. What is this passage mainly about? A. How to say English correctly and properly. B. Why English expressions include words about clothes. C. Which words can be used to describe my father. D. What people mean when they use some proverbs. 57. Which of the following proverbs are not related to money? A. tighten ones belt B. burn a hole in ones pocket C. get caught with their pants down D. pull money out of a hat58. Tim often considers himself the most important person in the world, which is far from the truth. We may say _. A. he is “too big for their boots” B. he “bet his boots on that” C. he “fill their shoes” D. he “wears his heart on his sleeves”59. If you want to praise somebody for his calmness when facing danger, you may say _ A. “ you really fill your shoes”. B. “Awesome! You wear your heart on your sleeves”. C. “Amazing! How can you keep your shirt on at that time!” D. “ Cool! You are truly a stuffed shirt”.60. The underlined expression “off the cuff” probably means _. A. with little or no preparation beforehand B. without the limit of the cuff（袖口) C. without much difficulty D. without dressing properlyBJust like every year, answered CBS News, the top moneymaker at theaters was actually popcorn, the most marketable star at the movies. According to the Popcorn Board, an organization funded by US popcorn companies, every year each American eats about 51 quarts (48 liters) of popcorn, most of it at the movies.Tory Hoen, writing in New York magazine, describes how closely popcorn is linked with going to the movies in the US: “As soon as you walk through the theater doors, an irrepressible (抑制不住的) craving (渴望) for popcorn follows. Since childhood, weve been used to having handful upon handful of popcorn from the moment the theater lights go down until the end of the movie. Its all part of the experience,” he writes.Popcorn has been one of US most beloved snacks for years. While theater-goers have other choices, such as candy, popcorn still mostly dominates (控制) cinema snack bar sales. Why?Popcorn was actually one item that kept movie theaters alive during the US Great Depression of the 1930s, according to Andrew Smith, author of the book Popped Culture: A Social History of Popcorn in America. Cinema managers found that if they lowered their admission fees, they could make more money from snacks, with popcorn the top choice of customers.Popcorns role was then boosted during World War II. With candy short in supply, popcorn became the primary snack of movie-goers. There was even a slogan: “Popcorn is a fighting food!” As The Credits, an online movie magazine, points out, the snack took on “a patriotic (爱国的) quality” and became linked “not only with the movies, but with the American spirit”.Today, according to Hoen, its hard to imagine sitting through a film without hearing the crunching of popcorn. He believes that popcorn has helped make the American movie-going experience “much more ingrained (根深蒂固的) and inspired”.61. How did the writer show that popcorn is the most marketable star at the movies?A. By making comparisons B. By giving examples.C. By using statistics (数据). D. By quoting (引用) Tory Hoen.62. According to the text, during the US Great Depression of the 1930s, _. A. people didnt have to pay to see movies B. popcorn actually saved movie theaters from closing C. candy was more popular than popcorn at movie theaters D. because of popcorns popularity, movie theaters didnt suffer at all63. The underlined word “boosted” in Paragraph 7 is closest in meaning to _. A. made less important B. taken into consideration C. accepted D. increased64. According to Tory Hoen, we can get an idea that _.A. popcorn is closely linked to only children when they are watching moviesB. popcorns could make the movies much more interesting in the 1930sC. popcorn can more or less show the American spirit of loving their countryD. popcorn seems to be a necessary part of Americans movie-going experience65. The main point of the article is to _. A. explain why popcorn has long played a starring role among US movie snacks B. argue that it is fun to enjoy popcorn while watching movies C. tell the story of the ups and downs of popcorns role in the US over the years D. analyze (分析) Hoens experiences eating popcorns in movie theaters CSurrounded by BrothersI know it is wrong to envy(羡慕) your children. But when I see my son, Tonio and his younger brother Sam going down a slide together, ones arm around the other, I know I have missed something wonderful. Not only did I never have a brother, but also I had no friendships like theirs. My sister was old enough to help take care of me, so she was more a mother than a playmate, and I was more a pest than a friend. A brother would have been wonderful, but it was not in the family planning. Now I finally live with brothers, my sons, Tonio and Sam. I am watching them build the kind of relationship that I once dreamed about. They go to bed together. When one comes into our bed after a nightmare, my wife and I know that before morning his brother will follow. Sam manages the world with more ease than his elder brother, whose frustrations often bring him to tears. With a sincere “Smile, Tonio,” Sam is the one who comforts him. Tonio, on the other hand, has stopped playing with boys at his age who dont like playing with Sam. They are always backing each other up. I dont know what kind of relationship they will have when they grow up. Parents always want their children to have what they never could. I want them to have each other. So I imagine them going to the same college, marrying sisters and living on the same block. Thats why I was so worried the day Tonio started kindergarten. I felt that I would lose something too. As we headed for school that morning, both boys seemed relaxed, as if neither had any idea that the day was going to be different, that starting then, Tonio would be leaving behind his brother, his best friend, his right arm. Tonios first day was chaotic, with hundreds of children outside looking for their teachers. Before any of us could say goodbye, Tonio disappeared with his new classmates. He turned to wave and then was gone. It was so sudden. Sam even didnt see him go. Although parents had been asked to ease the craziness of the first day by staying out of the school, I lifted Sam up and took him to Tonios classroom, looking for a glimpse of Tonio. Sam spotted him first. My wife and I didnt head back home immediately, stopping instead at a coffee shop to treat Sam to hot chocolate. We even let him eat ice-cream with his fingers. Sam was still quiet, so I asked him if he missed his brother already. He didnt answer. Instead he asked, “Daddy, is Tonio going to be gone forever?”“No, Sammy,” I said, feeling happy about his sweet question. “Not forever, just until three oclock.”I sometimes think that the greatest thing I have ever done is to help create these brothers. And I didnt stop with them. We had another child, and for the third time in a row, it was a boy. It wasnt long before his brothers climbed into the crib(婴儿床) to play with him. I am surrounded by brothers.66. What makes the author envy his sons? A. He has no friends like Sam and Tonio. B. He has only one brother in his family. C. He doesnt enjoy brotherhood as they do. D. He doesnt have a good relation with his sister.67. What does the underlined word “pest” in paragraph 2 mean? A. a bad person B. an annoyi
