for walks, let them play outside and give them good food and medical care. however, dogs without owners lead a different kind of life. the expression “to lead a dogs life” describes a person who has an unhappy life. some people say we live in a dog-eat-dog world. that means many people are competing for the same thing, like good jobs. they say that to be successful, they have to work like a dog. this means they have to work very hard. such hard work can make people dog-tired. and, the situation would be even worse if they become sick as a dog.some people say, “every dog has its day.” this means that every person enjoys a successful period during his or her life. to be successful, people often have to learn new skills. yet, some people say that you can never teach an old dog new tricks. they believe that old people dont like to learn new things and will not change the way they do things.some other people are compared to dogs in bad ways. people who are unkind or uncaring can be described as meaner than a junkyard dog. junkyard dogs live in places where people throw away things they dont want. but mean dogs are often used to guard the property, for they bark at or attack people who try to enter the property. however, sometimes a person who appears to be mean and threatening is really not so bad. we say his bark is worse than his bite.dog expressions are also used to describe the weather. the dog days of summer are the hottest days of the year. a rainstorm may cool the weather, but we dont want it to rain too hard. we dont want it to rain cats and dogs.56. a person who lives an unhappy life can be described as “_”.a. becoming sick as a dogb. leading a dogs lifec. living in a dog-eat-dog worldd. working like a dog57. the underlined word “mean” in paragraph 4 most probably means “_”.a. violent b. selfish c. wild d. poor58. what can we learn from the text?a. everyone can be successful if he learns from the old.b. it might be difficult for the young to learn new skills.c. junkyard dogs are careful in money arrangement.d. fierce persons arent so awful as they appear sometimes.59. to support his idea, the author develops the text mainly by_.a. listing reasonsb. using idiomsc. giving examplesd. making comparisonsb there are two things i can count on my dad asking every time he calls me: “is there anything i can do for you?” and “hows the car?” i guess he asks what he can do for me because his dad (an air force officer) was never really there for him, and hes determined to provide me with the support he lacked. during my youth he never missed a school play or softball game. in fact, he wasso supportive that i sometimes longed for one of those dads who dressed better and cared less. but my dad would forever be the guy wearing shorts with dress shoes and black socks, cheering me on, expecting greatness. his other standard question hows the car? used to strike me as a waste of long-distance dollars from a man who once suggested making a list of what you want to talk about before calling someone out of state. what i now realize is that “hows the car?” is not about the car. its a fathers way of asking his adult daughter how she is doing. the advantage is that if theres something wrong with the car, he knows what to do about it and how much it will cost, whereas if youre having problems about marriage or doubting a career choice, he might have to act mom on the line. at age thirty i finally took the plunge (跳进) into adulthood by renting a car without my dads help or advice. im sure my dad was hurt rather than proud. though a daughters independence is evidence of a job well done, it still implies the jobs done, and many fathers are unwilling to retire. even when my dad was overworked, hed happily jump on a plane if i said i needed help. his frequent question “is there anything i can do for you?” underlines the fact that he wishes there was still something he could provide. its interesting: even though were tied by blood and i love him no matter what, he still seems to need a concrete function suggesting stocks, finding the cheapest plane fare to feel he has a role in my life. 60. the authors father always showed up in his daughters school activities to _.a. watch them out of his own curiosityb. guarantee she would perform well c. support her in all possible waysd. show his own lack of fatherly love61. the author has learned that by asking “how is the car?”, her father is actually _.a. asking his daughter if the car breaks down or not b. reminding her not to waste moneyc. expressing his concern for her daughters safetyd. asking how his daughter is getting along62. according to the author, her father is unwilling to retire probably because _.a. he wants to continue to earn moneyb. he is doubtful of her independencec. he fears to lose his function as a dadd. he is not sure of the love from her63. we can safely draw a conclusion from the story that in the authors eye her father _.a. has a strong passion for his work b. has the deepest love for his daughterc. has great interest in his daughters card. has too much control over his daughtercbeijing acrobatic (杂技的) show in chaoyang

most common bedtime position, sleeping on their side with knees up and head down. the more we curl up(蜷曲), the more comfort we are seeking, according to phipps.the second most common position is the log, indicating stubbornness（顽固）. people sleep with a straight body, with arms at each side, as if they are standing guard at buckingh
