she was a present. people find all sorts of excuses for abandoning an animal. and she was one of the most beautiful dogs i had ever seen. i called her goldie. if i had known what was going to happen i would have given her a more creative name. she was so unsettled during those first few days. she hardly ate anything and had such an air of sadness about her. there was nothing i could do to make her happy, it seemed. heaven knows what had happened to her at her previous owners. but eventually at the end of the first week she calmed down. always by my side, whether we were out on one of our long walks or sitting by the fire. thats why it was such a shock when she pulled away from me one day when we were out for a walk. we were a long way from home, when she started barking and getting very restless. eventually i couldnt hold her any longer and she raced off down the road towards a farmhouse in the distance as fast as she could. by the time i reached the farm i was very tired and upset with goldie. but when i saw her licking (舔) the four puppies (幼犬) i started to feel sympathy towards them. we didnt know what had happened to her, said the woman at the door. i took her for a walk one day, soon after the puppies were born, and she just disappeared. she must have tried to come back to them and got lost, added a boy from behind her. i must admit i do miss goldie, but ive got nugget now, and she looks just like her mother. and ive learnt a good lesson: not to judge people. 56. how did the author feel about goldie when goldie came to the house? a. shocked b. sympatheticc. annoyed d. upset. 57. in her first few days at the authors house, goldie _. a. felt worried b. was angry c. ate a little d. sat by the fire 58. goldie rushed off to a farmhouse one day because she _. a. saw her puppies b. heard familiar barkings c. wanted to leave the author d. found her way to her old home 59. the passage is organized in order of _ . a. time b. effectiveness c. importance d. complexity bcompetition. its a simple word, yet a very complex word that covers many angles when it comes to how gasoline prices are determined. it seems so easy to explain, but dont let that trick youits incredibly difficult to explain and adequately understand. say youre on a sunday afternoon drive, and notice a gas station near you charging $3.50. down the road a few miles, that price could easily be 10 or more cents higher or lower. the question is “how” or “why” is that? think of it this way. are you more likely to get a better deal on a car if there are two similar car dealers next to each other? perhaps, because the dealers are too close. say there is a third similar car dealer miles away. is he going to be at the same level of competition and sell his cars for the same price as the two dealers next to each other? likely not. he may charge more or less. maybe people dont know there are two other dealers down the road. maybe the dealer is almost outside of the city and the land value isnt as high, so his taxes arent as high.these situations do take place at gas stations. and more factors can impact what a station will charge. timing can greatly impact what price a station charges as well! many motorists fail to realize that the price a station pays for gasoline changes daily. if one station gets lucky and buys gas on monday and the cost goes up tuesday, the station that bought on monday doesnt necessarily have to raise prices like the station that bought on tuesday. maybe the station that got caught buying for a higher price on tuesday will pass that higher cost on by raising its gas price.perhaps the difference is what brand the station is-branded stations usually pay a slightly higher cost for their gasoline. in return for paying a higher cost, those stations are guaranteed first supply in case of emergency situations. independent stations dont pay as much, but arent guaranteed supply.while competition sounds easy to understand, there are always a large number of factors that could influence what one station charges. keep in mind how many variables there are next time you fill up.60. what could be the best title for the passage?a. how competition impacts gas prices b. gas prices go up or downc. competition-a very complex word d. we cant stress enough the need for competition61. the example of car dealers is used to show _.a. car prices are determined by car dealers b. location is an important factor in pricingc. the quality of service matters most d. dealing strategy should be flexible62. the gas prices of a station always change partly because _.a. a gas station always wants to charge more b. the gasoline is in great demandc. the cost of the gas the station buys varies daily d. gas is in greater need on monday63. according to the passage, branded stations _.a. spend less money on their gasoline b. have more staff than independent stationsc. charge less for high quality oil d. offer a steady oil supplycever wonder how much a cloud weighs? what about a hurricane? a meteorologist has done some estimates and the results might surprise you. lets start with a very simple white puffy cloud a cumulus cloud（积云）. how much does the water in a cumulus cloud weigh? peggy lemone, senior scientist at the national center for atmospheric research in boulder, colorado, did the numbers. the water in the little cloud weighs about 550 tons, she calculates. or if you want to convert it to something that might be a little more meaningful think of elephants. the thought of a hundred elephants-worth of water suspended in the sky begs another question what keeps it up there? first of all, the water isnt in elephant sized particles（微粒）, its in tiny tiny tiny particles, explains lemone. and those particles float on the warmer air thats rising below. but still, the concept of so much water floating in the sky was surprising even to a meteorologist like lemone. i had no idea how much a cloud would weigh, actually, when i started the calculations, she says. so how many elephant units of water are inside a big storm cloud10 times bigger all the way around than the puffy cumulus cloud? again, lemone did the numbers: about 200,000 elephants. now, ratchet up the calculations for a hurricane about the size of missouri and the figures get really massive. what were doing is weighing the water in one cubic meter theoretically pulled from a cloud and then multiplying by the number of meters in a whole hurricane, she explains. the result? forty million elephants. that means the water in one hurricane weighs more than all the elephants on the planet. perhaps even more than all the elephants that have ever lived on the planet. 64. the weight of is not mentioned in the passage.a. a cumulus cloud b. a tornado c. a hurricaned. a storm cloud65. how did peggy lemone feel about the result of her calculations?a. she found it not convincing.b. she thought it needed further calculations. c. she was quite surprised at it.d. she considered the calculations inaccurate.66. what can be inferred from the passage?a. a storm cloud weighs about 200,000 elephants.b. the water in a hurricane weighs more than that in any other kind of cloud.c. there are less than forty million elephants living on the earth.d. the water in the cloud is in very tiny partials.dlipitorabout lipitorlipitor is a prescription medicine. along with diet and exercise, it lowers bad cholesterol(胆固醇) in your blood. it can also raise good cholesterol. lipitor can lower the risk of heart attack in patients with several common risk factors, including family history of early heart disease, high blood pressure, age and smoking. who is lipitor for?who can take lipitor: people who cannot lower their cholesterol enough with diet and exercise. adults and children over 10.who should not take lipitor: women who are pregnant, may be pregnant, or may become pregnant. lipitor may harm your unborn baby. women wh
