Whats even more impressive is that the three who have become skilled in just eight weeks are not special dogs that belong to some rich owners, but deserved ones at New Zealands SPCA. To get their training started, 10-month-old Porter, 18-month-old Monty and one-year-old Ginny were selected from a pool of seven potential candidates and moved to Animal Q, a talent agency that teaches animals tricks for movies and television shows. The driving classes began with teaching the dogs some basic driving techniques like turning the steering wheels(方向盘)and applying the brakes. After that the dogs practiced everything they had learnt behind the wheels of a motorized(装上发动机的)car. Then finally, it was time for the big test-driving a real car! Human cars are not really built for four-legged animals, so the car they drove was adjusted so that the dogs could sit comfortably and easily reach the steering wheel with their paws. Though they all seemed to do very well, the real test came on Monday night when Monty, the best driver of the three, showed his great driving skill on live television. Why would the SPCA go through so much trouble to highlight the skills of homeless dogs? The reason is to show that adopting a dog from a shelter does not mean owners are getting a pet that is worse than one purchased from a keeper. The CEO of the SPCA is hoping that this unusual event will be enough to convince the residents of New Zealand to consider them, when searching for a pet. We surely hope so, meanwhile we are almost certain that these three pioneers have at least landed their names in the Guinness World Records, creating a category that probably does not even exist today! 21. Who do the three dogs belong to? A. Some rich owners. B. Animal Q. C. A shelter. D. A zoo. 22. The car the dogs drove was adjusted_. A. because it was too big for the dogs to driveB. because it had no steering wheels and brakesC. to ensure the dogs could sit comfortably and drive easilyD. to motorize the car and turn it to be a real one23. Why does the SPCA decide to teach the three dogs to learn to drive a car? A. To prove old dogs can learn new tricks. B. To teach them performing tricks for movies and television shows. C. To provide amusing performances for homeless children. D. To encourage people to adopt the deserted dogs. 24. What can we learn from the passage? A. A new Guinness category for driving dogs will probably be created. B. Abandoned dogs are much cleverer than house-kept ones. C. All the dogs at New Zealands SPCA will soon be adopted. D. New Zealand has the most homeless dogs among all countries. BWhile selfie sticks have gained popularity around the world, they are at the same time being banned in particular areas. As it is said, the ban on such widely loved devices is because of a range of issues they might cause.Sporting events Wimbledon has announced recently that they will not allow “selfie sticks” to be brought into the Grounds during The Championships. Manchester United and Arsenal have also made the decision, saying that the devices are prohibited at matches, and they will treat them as severely as fireworks and knives. Tottenham Hotspur has said selfie sticks will be confiscated(没收) at the gates of the stadium, following the complaint by a Spurs fan, who said that his match view had been blocked.Cultural attractions In the Palace of Versailles, tourists are being asked not to use the device to take photos of themselves at Romes Colosseum. The restriction was announced in March of this year over fears that the famous landmark could get damaged. Many museums havefollowed suitincluding The National Gallery in London, the Museum of Modern Art, The Cooper Hewitt Museum, Bostons Museum of Fine Arts, and Washingtons Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in the US.Festivals Many festivals have banned the devices including Lollapalooza and Coachella with the latter stating it was banning “Selfie sticks”. Besides, Coachella had blankets, chairs, flags, hula hoops, marker pens, stuffed animals and umbrellas blacklisted. Many have expressed their anger and disappointment. User Zach Murphy wrote: “Selfie sticks now banned from Coachella and Lollapalooza. 25% of attendees just gave up their ticket.”Theme Parks A spokesperson for Alton Towers said: “Alton Towers Resort is more than happy for our guests to take photos of their memorable experiences with selfie sticks. However, according to our standard photography regulations, they are not permitted on-board any rides or attractions.” For theme park and zoo Chessington World of Adventures, filming or photography of any kind on any ride or attraction is not permitted so selfie sticks would be included as well.25. What can be the reason why some famous museums do not allow selfie sticks to be used?A.They are as harmful as sharp knives. B. They block other tourists views.C.They do not follow photography regulations. D. They will do damage to the landmark.26. The underlined phrase in Paragraph Three means _.A.they also ask tourists to follow regulations B.they also require workers to wear uniformC.they also ban selfie sticks in their museums D.they ask tourists to visit in good order27. What can we infer from the passage?A.The ban on selfie sticks has a negative impact on tourism.B.Many people are happy to have the ban on selfie sticks.C.With selfie sticks people can take memorable photos.D.The popularity of selfie sticks is coming down very soon.28. What can be the best title of the passage?A. Selfie sticks have gained great popularity B. Selfie sticks are being banned for safety concernsC. Selfie stick can do harm to you and othersD. Who announced to ban selfie sticksC Six months before she died, my grandmother moved into an old peoples home and I visited her there when I was in Britain. She was sitting in the living room with about 15 other residents (居住客), mostly women, half of them asleep. The room was clean and warm, with flowers and pictures, and the care assistants were kind and cheerful. All was silent except when the residents needed to be helped to the bathroom. It was depressing (压抑). Gran talked a lot about how much she missed seeing her grandchildren, but I knew from my sister that they hated going to visit her there, and to be frank, I couldnt wait to get away myself. So I was interested in reading a newspaper article about a new concept in old peoples homes in France. The idea is simple, but revolutionary - combining a residential home for the elderly with a nursery school in the same building. The children and the residents eat lunch together and share activities such as music, painting, gardening, and caring for the pets, which the residents are encouraged to keep. In the afternoons, the residents enjoy reading or telling stories to the children, and if a child is feeling sad or tired, they can always find someone for comfort.The advantages are great for everyone concerned. The children are happy because they get a lot more of free afternoon, and enjoy themselves because someone has time for them. They also learn that old people are not different or frightening in any way. And of course, they see illness and death and learn to accept them. The residents are happy because they feel useful and needed. They are more active and more interested in life when the children are around and they take more interest in their appearance too. And the staff (员工) are happy because they see an improvement in the physical and psychological health of the residents and have an army of assistants to help with the children. Nowadays there is less and less contact (接触) between the old and the young. “There are many reasons for this, including the breakdown of the extended family, working parents with no time to care for ageing relations, families that have moved away, and smaller flats with no room for grandparents. But the result is the same increasing numbers of children without grandparents and old people who have no contact with children. And more and more old people are lonely and feel useless, along with more and more families with young children who badly need more support. Its a major problem in many societies. Thats why intergenerational programmes, designed to bring the old and the young together, are growing in popularity all over the world, supported by UNESCO and other local and international organisations. There are successful examples all over the world, using young people to teach IT skills to older people and using old people as volunteer assistants in schools, perhaps reading with children who need extra attention. One successful scheme (方案) in London pairs young volunteers with old people who are losing their sight. The young people help with practical things such as writing letters, reading bank statements and helping with shopping, and the older people can pass on their knowledge and experience to their young visitors. But it isnt only the individuals concerned who gain from intergenerational activities. The advantages to society are great too. If older people and the youth of today can understand and accept each other, there will be more harmony in a community. 29. The new concept that the writer read about in the newspaper refers to _. A. allowing old people to help take care of children B. building a bridge between the old and the youth C. encouraging children to visit old people D. requiring more assistants to help the old people30. What is the major problem in society today according to the passage? A. The breakdown of the extended family. B. More and more old people left behind. C. Lack of care for the old and the young. D. Children without much care from their parents.31. The underlined sentence in paragraph 3 implies that _. A. the new combination can provide a lot of chances of jobs B. actually the old people can act as assistant staff C. children are those who get advantages most D. more than the old people and children can get advantagesD I have a friend named Monty Roberts who owns a horse ranch (大牧场). He has let me use his house to put on fund-raising events. The last time I was there he introduced me by saying: “I want to tell you a story. It all goes back to a story about a young man who was the son of a mobile horse trainer who would go from stable to stable(马厩), race track to race track, farm to farm and ranch to ranch, training horses. As a result, the boys high school career was continually interrupted. When he was a senior, he was asked to write a paper about what he wanted to be and do when he grew up. “That night he wrote a seven-page paper describing his goal of someday owning a horse ranch. He wrote about his dream in great detail and he even drew a picture of a 200-acre ranch with much information of all the buildings, the stables and the track. Then he drew a detailed floor plan for a 4,000-square-foot house that would sit on a 200-acre dream ranch. “He put a great deal of his heart into the project and the next day he handed it in to his teacher. Two days later he received his paper back. On the front page was a large red F with a note that read, See me after class. “The boy with the dream went to see the teacher after class and asked, Why did I receive an F? The teacher said, This is an unrealistic dream for a young boy like you. You have no money. You come from a mobile family. You have no resources. Owning a horse ranch requires a lot of money. You have to buy the land. You have to pay for the original breeding stock (种马) and later youll have to pay a large amount of money. Theres no way you could ever do it. Then the teacher added, If you will rewrite this paper with a more realistic goal, I will reconsider your grade. “The boy went home and thought about it long and hard. He asked his father what he should do. His father said, Look, son, you have to make up your own mind on this. However, I think it is a very important decision for you. Finally, after a week, the boy turned in the same paper, making no changes at all. He stated, You can keep the F and Ill keep my dream. ” Monty then turned to the assembled group and said, “I tell you this story because you are sitting in my 4,000-square-foot house in the middle of my 200-acre horse ranch. I still have that school paper on the wall.” He added, “The best part of the story is that two years ago that same schoolteacher brought 30 kids to camp out on my ranch for a week. When the teacher was leaving, he said, Look, Monty, Im sorry now. When I was your teacher, I was something of a dream stealer. During those years I stole a lot of kids dreams. Fortunately you had strong determination not to give up on yours. ”“Dont let anyone steal your dreams. Follow your heart, no matter what,” Monty at last concluded.32. From the teachers point of view, the real reason why the boy got an F is that _. A. the boys family was mobileB. the paper was not well organized C. his dream was not practicableD. he could not afford to buy a horse ranch33. Why was the boys schooling continually interrupted? A. He had to help his father to train horses. B. He had to travel along with his father from place to place. C. His father devoted all his time to training horses. D. They lived too far away from the school.34. What is the turning point in Montys success story? A. He wrote about his dream in the school paper.B. He received his paper back. C. He turned to his father.D. He put up the school paper on the wall.35. What did the teacher mean by saying “he was a dream stealer”? A. He succeeded in stealing his students dreams. B. The dreams his students had were usually unrealistic. C. He failed to help his students realize their dreams. D. He discouraged his students from keeping their dreams.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。Managing your time is a lot like managing your money. 36 With 24 hours a day multiplied by seven days a week, your weekly time budget is 168 hours per week.Step No. 1: 37 Estimate (估计) the amount of time per week you spend on each activity, such as class time, athletics
