If you have, then youre not alone. When and where dogs first began living side-side with humans are questions that have stirred hot debate among scientists. There are a few hard facts that all agree on. These include that dogs were once wolves and they were the first animal to be domesticated(驯养) by humans. They came into lives some 15000 years ago, before the dawn of agriculture.Beyond that, there is little agreement. The earliest bones found that are unquestionable dogs and not wolves date from 14,000 years ago. However, 30,000-year-old skulls have been discovered in France and Belgium that are not pure wolf and some scientists think could be dogs.With such puzzling evidence, many scientists are now turning to DNA to find out when and where dogs were first domesticated. In one research project, tens of thousands of blood samples have been taken from street dogs around the world. The plan is to compare them with those of wolves. Its even possible to analyse DNA from ancient bones. Tiny pieces of the 30,000-year-old skulls mentioned earlier are currently being studied, and another DNA study has already shown that ancient dogs preserved in the Alaskan ice-fields evolved from Asian wolves, not American ones.Indeed, the ancient DNA may turn out to be more informative than the DNA of living dogs. Because dogs have accompanied humans around the world for thousands of years, their current distribution may tell us very little of their origins. This is why different groups of scientists believe that dogs variously originated in eastern Asia, Mongolia, Siberia, Europe or Africa.But why were the animals domesticated in the first place? The most recent theory is that dogs domesticated themselves, initially living in and around our ancient villages to eat any food thrown out. Today, this is a way of life still shared by three -quarters of a billion unowned dogs worldwide.28. Which is the only statement generally agreed on by scientists studying dogs?A. They originally were used as farm animalB. They evolved from wolves found in EuropeC. They helped the development of agricultureD. They were the first animal to be kept as pets29. Why does the writer first mention the 30,000-year-old animals skulls?A. To show that dogs were much larger in the pastB. To prove that dogs developed from Asian wolvesC. To suggest that dogs may have evolved much earlierD. To argue that dogs were first kept in France and Belgium30. How did scientists determine the origins of the ancient dogs found in Alaska?A. By analyzing the age of their bonesB. B. By examine the animals DNAC. By studying the shape of their skullsD. D. By comparing them with modern dogs31. Why did dogs start living with humans?A. Because they were attracted by foodB. B. Because they were trapped by humansC. Because they couldnt survive in the wildD. D. Because they were trained to protect villagesDSpace is a dangerous place, not only because of meteors(流星) but also because of rays from the sun and others stars. The atmosphere again acts as our protective blanket on earth. Light gets through, and this is essential for plants to make the food which we eat. Heat, too, makes our environment endurable. Various kinds of rays come through the air from outer space, but enormous quantities of radiation from the sun are screened off. As soon as men leave the atmosphere they are exposed to this radiation but their spacesuits or the walls of their spacecraft, if they are inside, do prevent a lot of radiation damage.Radiation is the greatest known danger to explorers in space. The unit of radiation is called “rem”. Scientists have reason to think that a man can put up with far more radiation than 0.1 rem without being damaged; the figure of 60 rems has been agreed on. The trouble is that it is extremely difficult to be sure about radiation damage - a person may feel perfectly well, but the cells of his or her physical organs may be damaged, and this will not be discovered until the birth of deformed children or even grandchildren.Missions of the Apollo flight have had to cross belts of high amount of rems. So far, no dangerous amounts of radiation have been reported, but the Apollo missions have been quite short. We simply do not know yet how men are going to get on when they spend weeks and months outside the protection of the atmosphere, working in a space laboratory. Drugs might help to decrease the damage done by radiation, but no really effective ones have been found so far.32. According to the first paragraph, the atmosphere is essential to man in that _A. it provides enough light for plant growth.B. it protects man against the harmful rays from space.C. it supplies the heat necessary for human survival.D. it screens off the falling meteors.33. Why is it difficult to identify space radiation damage?A.The effect of exposure to radiation is slow in coming.B. Tiny amounts of radiation do no harm to human body.C. Only more than 60 rems of radiation can be discovered immediately.D. Astronauts in spacesuits wont be hurt by radiation.34. It can be inferred from the passage that _A. the Apollo mission was very successful.B. astronauts will have disabled children or grandchildren.C. protection from space radiation is no easy job.D. radiation is not a threat to well-protected space explorers.35. The best title for this passage would be _.A. The Atmosphere and Our EnvironmentB. Research on RadiationC. Importance of Protection Against RadiationD.

Experimenting with materials to create something new can go a long way in helping them develop their creativity.3Interpersonal SkillsUnderstanding how others feel can be a challenge for kids. We know whats going on inside our own head，but what about others？Being able to read people helps kids from misreading a situation and jumping to false conclusions. 39 “Why do you think shes crying？” “Can you tell how that man is feeling by looking at his face?” “If someone were to do that to you, how would you feel?”4Self Expression40 There are many ways to express thoughts and ideasmusic，acting，drawing，building，photography.
