On my first Metro ride, I encountered a clumsy pickpocketI melted him with a look，and he eased his hand from my purse to fade into the crowded car. At my stop，I carried my heavy suitcase up the steep stairs and froze in confusionSomewhere in this confusing city my hotel was hidden，but suddenly I couldnt read my own directionsI stopped two peopleBoth greeted me with that Parisian face that said：Yes, I speak English，but youll have to struggle with your French if you want to talk to me. When I finally found the hotel，my heart was pounding. Then when I saw my roomI couldnt stayCould I?

A. He is strongly against it BHe is very doubtful about it C. He thinks it is too flexible DHe supports it for its flexibilityDWhere do dogs come from?Gray wolves are their ancestors. Scientists are pretty consistent about that. And researchers have suggested that dogs origins can date back to Europe, the Near East, Siberia and South China. Central Asia is the newest and best candidate, according to a large study of dogs from around the world.Laura M. Shannon and Adam R. Boyko at Cornell University, and an international group of other scientists, studied not only purebred(纯种的) dogs, but also street or village dogs.Dr. Shannon analyzed three different kinds of DNA, Dr. Boyko said, the first time this has been done for such a large and diverse group of dogs from 38 countries. And that led them to Central Asia as the place of origin for dogs in much the same way that genetic studies have located the origin of modern humans in East Africa.The analysis, Dr. Boyko said, pointed to Central Asia, as the place where “all the dogs alive today” come from. The data did not allow precise dating of the origin, he said, but showed it occurred at least 15,000 years ago. Greger Larson of Oxford University, who is leading a large international effort to analyze ancient DNA from fossilized bones, said he was impressed by the study. “Its really great to see not just the number of street dogs, but also the geographic breadth and the number of remote locations where the dogs were sampled,” he said in an email. He also praised the sampling of different kinds of DNA and the analytic methods.Dr. Larson, who was not involved with the study, said he thought the Central Asia finding required further testing. He said he suspected that the origins of modern dogs were “extremely messy” and that no amount of sampling of living populations will be definitive. He said a combination of studies of modern and ancient DNA is necessary.32. According to the research on a large number of dogs, we can know_.A. dogs mainly lived in Europe and the Far EastB. dogs would like to live in Central AsiaC. dogs ancestors come from gray wolvesD. the Near East has many gray wolves33.What can we infer from what Dr. Boyko said? A. There are three different kinds of DNA in dogs. B. This is the second time they have done so many dogs. C. They only do research on village dogs from many countries. D. Modern humans are from East Africa while dogs come from Central Asia.34. Greger Larson got a very deep impression of his study because he_. A. found the study based on many different dogs and the sample dogs remote locations B. saw the number of street dogs from fossilized bones C. watched the geographic breadth of the sampled dogsD. praised his teammates for their hard work on the dogs35. Who wasnt engaged in the study of dogs origins? A. Laura M. Shannon B. Adam R. Boyko C. Shannon and Boyko D.
