I had entered into a world of silence.This 37 experience occurred a few weeks ago when I agreed to “go deaf for the day to 38 the work of the charity Hearing Dogs for Deaf People. Now I serve as an ambassador.That day when I 39 a cab to take me to the office of my manager, Gavin, I couldnt hear what the taxi driver was saying to me. 40 was impossible. Then, when I reached the office, I had to 41 the interphone (对讲机) five times as I couldnt hear a(n) 42 .Everybody said I was shouting at them I simply wasnt 43 of the volume of my own voice. Gavin kept telling me my phone was ringing, but I didnt 44 . I was too busy trying to concentrate on 45 his lips. And when he tried to tell me a code to put into my phone, I had to keep asking him to repeat it more slowly again and again. 46 he lost his patience and shouted at me: “Just give me the phone!” I was shocked.People couldnt be 47 to repeat themselves, so they kept trying to do things for me that I was 48 to finish by myself. I lost control, feeling 49 and awkward. Being deaf for the day was extraordinarily 50 . I had to work so hard to “ 51 ” with my eyes, get peoples attention and use my other 52 to make up for my lack of hearing. It was a huge, exhausting effort. Until that 53 I didnt realize how much I took my own hearing for granted, or the sorts of emotions and experiences deaf people go 54 .Therefore, if a deaf person asks you to repeat something, 55 say: “It doesnt matter.” It does matter.36.

Theyre longer than the average school bus, and once every hour or so they come to the surface and breathe. In a recent study, scientists found evidence that sperm whales may work together to hunt and feed.This is very bad news indeed for certain types of squid (枪乌贼).Scientists already knew that sperm whales, like a lot of mammals, can come together to form communities. Some researchers think that these groups, usually female and young whales, raise their young together. The new study suggests that in addition to raising whales, these groups also cooperate when theyre going after a meal.Sperm whales usually feast on squid, but to catch these animals the whales sometimes have to dive thousands of feet below the ocean surface. In 2008, scientists set out to study groups of sperm whales. The researchers were surprised to find that, when diving to the deep, the whales followed unexpected patterns. Some whales zigzagged back and forth, and it appeared that the whales did not all follow the same paths.We expected their dives to be similar, but often one of the three whales went deeper than the other two, Bruce Mate, the director of Oregon State Universitys Marine Mammal Institute, said.Mate and his team suspect that some whales were driving individual squid into one large groupso that other whales could swim right into the middle of the squid and dine.Mates research suggests that sperm whales are herding (群聚) but doesnt deliver proof, says Kelly Benoit, a biological oceanographer (海洋学家). The scientists only looked at whales, not whales prey (猎物), she says, so its difficult to tell exactly what was happening with the squid.So now, Mate is headed back to the oceanto study the squid. But it wont be easy: Unlike fish, which show up on sonar (声纳装置) because they have air bladders (气鳔), squid are harder to find. Plus, Mate wont be the only one searching for squid: The sperm whales are still out there, and they are hungry.56. The word zigzagged (Paragraph 4) is closest in meaning to . A. wound their wayB. moved forwardC. swam aimlesslyD. floated casually57. According to the passage, Mate holds the view that .A. sperm whales often form a group of three members B. some sperm whales gather prey together, and others eat C. sperm whales dive in similar patterns into the deep ocean D. sperm whales take turns to dive deep to catch squid 58. Which of the following best describes Kellys attitude towards the result of Mates research?A. CuriousB. Positive C. DoubtfulD.

They read to him every night, teach colors and numbers early, and supervise his homework once he enters school. They know that a good education is important to his success. But what about emotional intelligence? Emotional intelligence has been linked to excellence, but can it be taught?Donna Housman, PhD, a clinical psychologist and the founder of the Beginnings School in Massachusetts, says it can. Social-emotional learning (SEL), which she says improves emotional intelligence，is the foundation of her schools program. “What we have uncovered from research and nearly 30 years of introducing and incorporating (并入) the building blocks of emotional intelligence into our course is that when children are able to become aware of their emotions and those of others and learn how to manage their emotions more constructively and effectively, they are better able to attend and focus on learning,” she says.An emotionally intelligent child can control his impulses (冲动), so hes less likely to get angry. An emotionally intelligent child is resilient (适应力强的). He can manage lifes ups and downs and care for and protect his emotions. He also knows how to read peoples social cues (暗示).Housman says social-emotional learning creates the “building blocks” children need to develop their emotional intelligence. These building blocks include the ability to recognize emotions and identify the ones theyre feeling, an awareness of how to connect feelings to behaviors, and the ability to appropriately express emotions and control their feelings.The Resolving Conflict Creatively Project is a long-running program in more than 400 US schools that teaches K-8 students ways to deal with conflict and other social skills. A report on the projects impact at four New York City school districts showed that teachers observed 71 percent less physical violence in their classrooms and 66 percent fewer incidents of teasing and offending after carrying out the program.Another report showed that in Atlanta schools that adopted the project, student violence went down, self-respect went up, and fewer students dropped out or were suspended (休学). Both studies showed students were better able to accept differences among their fellow students and use proper ways to deal with conflict in academic and nonacademic situations.Although some educators argue against carrying out this type of the programming because it takes valuable time away from main academic materials, the findings suggest that SEL programming not only does not detract (降低) from academic performance but actually increases students performance on standardized tests and grades.63.Which of the following would Donna Housman agree with?A. Emotional intelligence has been linked to good parenting.B. Building blocks are increasingly critical to ones success.C. Students can deal with emotions wisely after getting trained.D. Focusing on learning contributes good emotional intelligence.64.What does the author stress most in the third paragraph?A. The importance of emotional intelligence.B. Suggestions on making progress in SELC. Patiences role in bringing good results.D. Ways of controlling ones emotions.65.We can learn that the Resolving Conflict Creatively Project _ .A. lasts nearly 30 yearsB. aims at academic performanceC. does good to both the teachers and K-8 studentsD. reduces bad behaviors at school after schools using it66.Why do some educators argue against the SEL program?A. They consider it has nothing to do with students academic performance.B. They think it takes up the precious time intended for key courses.C. The SEL programme emphasizes students academic performance.D. They have a mo
