face, eyes, nose and tail. if you pay attention to those things, youll find you are able to easily understand how your dog is feeling.ears and facethe head of a dog is more expressive than you think. if you say a word that he recognizes, like his name or something you say often, his ears will get up. his mouth is another good instruction. a mouth that is wide open to pant (喘气) with some sound suggests that the dog is happy some people even say when a dog is panting, he is laughing as he cools himself. a tongue sticking out suggests that the dog is in a good mood.eyesto a dog, purple and blue are both seen as shades of blue. red is seen as black or dark grey. orange, yellow and green are seen as various shades of yellow. this means that, to a dog, bright orange toys are the same yellow shade. if you want your dog to clearly see his toys in the green grass youd better give the dog blue toys; if you have orange, yellow or green toys, the dog will be able to find them with his nose.nosea dog can both sniff and breathe through his nose. breathing is for air, but when dogs sniff with short breaths they are actually following some scents (气味) with his keen (灵敏的) nose. when a dog is overheated, his sense of smell is reduced by as much as 40 percent and he uses the air to cool himself rather than for smelling. puppies noses can help find their mother when their eyes and ears are closed. the function will disappear by the time they are adults. taillastly, you need to pay attention to your dogs tail, because it shows what he is thinking and feeling. a dog that is in a good mood will have a tail that seems to be going a mile a minute wagging, and excited. however, an angry or frightened dog will have his tail between his legs.21.the authors purpose in writing the first paragraph is to _.a. advise you to look after your dog b. introduce the topic of the passagec. explain what is body language d. call on anyone to protect dogs22.when your dog feels happy, he will _.a. keep his mouth wide open soundlessly b. bark all the time in front of youc. open his mouth to breathe with some sound d. keep his tongue sticking outa. a, b b. c, d c. a, d d. b, c23.why does your dog use his nose when looking for orange, yellow or green toys in the grass?a. because he wants to show how keen his nose is.b. because his nose is keener than his eyes in the open air.c. because he cant tell the difference between toys and grass.d. because these colors are all shades of yellow in his eyes.24. which of the following is true according to the last two parts “nose” and “tail”?a. adult dogs cant use their nose to find their mothers. b. when a dog feels too hot, he will lose his sense of smell.c. dogs often sniff with short breaths when they feel sad.d. a dogs tail cant show his feelings unless he is frightened.【答案】21.b22.b23.d24.a【解析】试题分析：本文主要讲述了对狗狗的肢体语言一种研究。狗狗通过耳朵，面部，鼻子，眼镜和尾巴来与外界进行沟通。21.b细节理解题。根据第一段的第一句，there are four main areas when it comes to your dogs body language his ears and face, eyes, nose and tail，以及下文各个小标题可知，第一段主要是对下文的一个总起，起到对下文介绍话题的作用，故选b。22.b细节理解题。根据文中 mouth that is wide open to pant (喘气) with some sound suggests that the dog is happy ，可知当狗狗开心的时候就会张开嘴喘气，并且会狗叫，故选b。23.d细节理解题。根据文中orange, yellow and green are seen as various shades of yellow. this means that, to a dog, bright orange toys are the same yellow shade，可知这些颜色在狗狗的眼睛里都是黄色的阴影，所以它要靠嗅觉去找，故选d。24.a细节理解题。根据文中最后一段， puppies noses can help find their mother when their eyes and ears are closed. the function will disappear by the time they are adults，可知狗狗成年之后不能通过嗅觉来找到母亲，所以选项a正确，故选a。考点：考查科技类短文阅读。passage bi decided to go back to school in the fall of 2010 for not being happy with my current job and financial status. i got my associate (大专毕业证书) in may 2002 in commercial art. after graduation, i had trouble getting a job in that field. for years, i was going from one job to another, and i was not satisfied with unstableness (不稳定). i decided to go back to school to study either international business or psychology (心理学). i weighed the pros and cons of both professions and psychology won. i like helping my friends and family. when they are faced with hard situations in their life, id like to give them sound advice and be honest with them. also, i was interested in the “mind”. i searched for online schools because my work schedule would not allow me to study in a classroom. i was nervous about taking online classes because i had heard mixed stories from my friends who were taking online classes. i decided to do it anyway to experience something different. i wanted to find an online school that was affordable and believable. while i was doing the online search, i discovered walden university, which is specially for working adults who want to have a bachelors degree or higher. the process of getting accepted was easy, i.e. writing an essay on why i wanted to attend their school, sending my previous credits (以前的成绩), etc.i am currently enrolled in the bachelors program for psychology, and i am paying for college via financial-aid loans (贷款). this experience has been interesting and yet upsetting as sometimes it was difficult to balance work, school and home life. i have learned a lot about psychology and myself. for example, i like writing about current events, relationships and traveling. i thought my english composition was ordinary, but after taking a few classes at walden university, i have improved my english composition and it has made me feel confident enough to start writing professionally. now i am a freelancer (自由撰稿人) and i am only three classes away from getting my bachelors degree in psychology. it is one of the best decisions i have made in my life. 25.what did the

travel and shuttling back and forth (来回地) to the past or the future. who wouldnt be enthralled by returning to the past or seeing the future? but time travel seems to be possible only in our imagination or in science fiction (科幻小说).science fiction is a world where impossible things can become possible and thats why most of us like it. but science fiction is not entirely fiction since it is based on science theories (理论). time travel, for instance, is a theme used by sci-fi writers. readers may sometimes think writers have first-hand experience of it. i have collected some of the popular ways in which time travel is made possible in science fiction: through the wormhole a wormhole is a path between points in space-time. according to einstein, an object can pass through a wormhole if it can travel at the speed of light. an example of a wormhole is described in riddle of the red bible. through a black hole a black hole is a vacuum (真空) in space where light cannot even escape or pass through. in some sci-fi movies, like star trek, black holes became the means to travel through time. through time machines in science fiction, time machines are vehicles that can travel faster than light. it can be a strange vehicle like the tardis in doctor who or a special car like the one used in back to the future. but these special vehicles would need a wormhole to travel to the past or the future. through parallel universe (平行宇宙) another popular way to travel through time is to be able to get into a parallel universe where one can go back to a point in time and see a different reality.though we know time travel may not be possible, it is still an entertaining subject and a heated topic for most of us. and in science fiction, where reality is always in the imagination, time does not really matter.33.the underlined word “enthralled” in paragraph 1 probably means “_”.a. defeated b. confused c. shocked d. attracted34.what can we learn from the passage?a. time travel might become possible in the far future.b. time machines cant travel to the past or the future without a wormhole.c. sci-fi writers have similar experiences to those they describe in their fiction.d. an object can travel to the past or the future when its speed is faster than light.35.what is the authors purpose in writing this passage?a. to arouse the heated topic of time travel among readers.b. to introduce how humans travel through time in science fiction.c. to introduce the authors knowledge of time travel to the readers.d. to compare different ways of time travel mentioned in some science fictions.【答案】33.d34.b35.b【解析】试题分析：本文是一篇科技文，主要是介绍了科学家对于时空穿梭的研究，以此来介绍我们所熟知的科幻类小说中出现的穿越时空是如何实现的。33.d细节理解题。enthralled本意为被迷住的，根据第一句，many of us are interested in time travel，我们很多人都喜欢时间旅程，都会被回忆吸引，这里的enthralled就相当于吸引attracted，故选d。34.b细节理解题。根据文中， through the wormhole a wormhole is a path between points in space-time，可知只有通过wormhole 为纽带，才能穿越时空到过去或者未来，故选b。35.b推理判断题。根据文章的第一句以及最后一段，可知本文主要讲述了科学家关于时光穿越的研究，以此来介绍科技类文章中穿越时空是如何实现的。故选b。考点：考查科技类短文阅读。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。english can be a difficult
