Many people dont, because they believe that pigs are naturally fat, lazy and dirty. But are any of those things true?It is true that pigs are fat. They eat a lot. But they are useful to us. We get more than just pork from pigs. We can use their skin to make shoes. We can use their hair to make brushes. Pigs also provide us with ingredients for drugs like insulin(胰岛素). Insulin can treat diabetes(糖尿病).People sometimes say, You are as stupid as a pig.But pigs are not stupid. In fact pigs are one of the 10 smartest animals. They have a good memory and can tell different shapes apart. Many experts think pigs are easier to train than dogs or cats. In France, people teach pigs to find truffles(松露). With their good sense of smell, they can find truffles even faster than dogs.When you see pigs, they are usually in dirty water or mud. Thats because pigs have no sweat glands(汗腺). On hot days, they have to cool themselves in water or mud. This keeps insects off them as well. Mud can also protect their skin from sunburns.These stereotypes about pigs often make us hold a negative view about the animal. For example, if someone eats a lot, we say that they have pigged out. If someones room is very messy, we might say his or her room looks like a pigsty(猪圈).But people in ancient China really liked pigs. People thought the pigs big head and ears were a symbol of good luck. If someone had a round and chubby(胖乎乎的)face, he or she was thought to be blessed(有福气的). People also believed the animal, stood for wealth, as humans use every part of the pig. Piggy banks are a symbol of this. Most children have a piggy bank that they can use to save money. 31 .

Why did the people in ancient China like pigs?APeople thought the pigs big head and ears were a symbol of good luck.BPeople believed the animal stood for health.CPeople knew pigs were one of the 10 smartest animals.DPeople thought pigs were blessed by god.34 . The writer wrote this passage mainly to_.Atell readers that pigs are not stupid, dirty or fat at all.Bcriticize people who don t really know about pigs.Cpoint out that pigs can do a lot of things for people.Dhelp people know more about the pigs.Boys and girls love to watch TV. Some children spend six hours a day in school and four to six in front of the TV set. Some children even watch TV for eight or more hours on Saturday. TV programmes are like books and films. A child can learn bad things from some of them and good things from others. Some programmes help children know the news from the other parts of the world. Some programmes show people and places from other countries or other times（时代）in history. With TV, a child doesnt need to go to the zoo to see animals or to the sea to see a ship. Boys and girls can see a film, a play or a basketball match at home. Some programmes can teach children how to cook or how to use tools. Its interesting to watch TV, but it is also interesting to read a book or to visit friends.35 .

So it is not surprising that there are a lot of expressions about cats. Some cats like to catch small birds, like canaries (金丝雀). If someone looks very proud and satisfied with himself, we say “he looks like the cat that ate the canary.”Sometimes, a cat likes to play with a small animal it catches. So if you “play cat and mouse” with someone, it means that you change between different kinds of behavior when dealing with another person. For example, a girl might offer something sweet to her little brother and then take it away when he reaches for it.Americans might say that something is “the cats miaow” or “the cats pajamas(睡衣)” to describe something that is the best or finest. “A copycat” is someone who acts just like someone else or copies another persons work. “A fat cat” is a person with a lot of money.If you tell about something that is supposed to be a secret, we say you “let the cat out of the bag”. If you are not able to speak or answer a question, someone might ask you if “the cat has got your tongue(舌头)” Have you ever watched children in a classroom when their teacher leaves for a few minutes? “When the cats away, the mice will play” means people sometimes act badly when there is no supervision (监管). You may have heard the expression “curiosity killed the cat”. This means caring too much about things that are not your business might cause problems.If you have ever had cats as pets, you know it is difficult to train them or to get them to do something. Cats are not like Sheep or cows that can be moved in a group. So we say a difficult or impossible job is like “herding (放牧) cats “38 . What can we learn from the passage?AThe expression “a fat cat” is used to describe someone who is very fat.BThe expression “play cat and mouse” usually means “play tricks on others”.CIt is more difficult to keep sheep or cows than cats.DThere are more expressions about cats than those about dogs.39 . In which of the following situations do we most probably use the expression “curiosity killed the cat”?ASomeone always asked a lady her age or weight and it made her angry.BSomeone promised to keep a secret but he failed to do so.CSomeone won the first prize in an English singing competition and he felt very excited.DSomeone tried to swim across the Yangtze River with his newly broken legs.40 . Where can you most probably find the passage?AIn a scientific research paper about cats.BOn a website telling people how to keep cats.CIn a magazine telling various jokes and funny stories.DIn a language book that teaches students how to use American slang.五、用单词的正确形式完成句子根据短文意思，用方框中所给词语的适当形式填空，使文章通顺、完整(其中有两个多余选项)。at， hard， change， up， before， win， happen，down， choose， practise， come， partLife is not easy， so Id like to say “When anything 41 . ， believe in yourself!” When I was a young boy， I was too shy to speak to anyone.

An obvious reason is lack of sleep. However, there are also causes for getting too little sleep. However, there are also causes for getting too little sleep. Homework is a daily occurrence for most students, one that can take three to four hours per night. A teenager who wants to be able to take part in any activity besides homework must stay up late to fit everything in. Club activities, sports, computer-game playing, and TV viewing, for example, all contribute to (促成) teens having less time for both homework and sleep. Sometimes teens lack sleep because of after-school jobs that are taken on to earn extra money for college, family expenses, or simply for clothes. Physical problems are another factor that can cause students to fall asleep in class. For example, insomnia, which may keep a student up at night, causing exhaustion (疲惫不堪) during class hours, is a serious problem that may require medical attention. Medical evidence also supports the idea that each person has a body clock that helps to decide his or her sleep pattern. Unluckily, these body clocks do not always work according to school timetables.The effects of falling asleep in class can be quite serious. First of all, sleeping in class is not a good way to endear (使受喜爱) yourself to teachers. In addition, it is highly possible that other students may make jokes about those who sleep in class. However, the most harmful effects of sleeping in class is missing out on important points. In the long run, sleepers ma
