Why Dogs Bury Their Favorite BonesYou may find it crazy that your dog buries his favorite bone or chew toy, only to dig it up a day or two later, but there is actually a reason behind it-it is simply in their nature. For thousands of years, dogs have buried their bones. The practice itself started long before dogs were even pets when they had to bury bones to survive.When dogs lived in the wild, sometimes food was scarce. If they were able to find food dogs became very protective of it. Sometimes they would have more bones than they could eat for one meal. To keep other dogs and animals from stealing their bones, dogs would bury them in the ground. When it was time for the next meal, they would dig up their bones and enjoy them again. This would continue until the bones were gone.Even though most dogs have plenty of food to eat today, their instincts still tell them to bury their bones and favorite toys. They do this to keep other dogs and animals from stealing them, just like their ancestors did. Some dogs keep at least two bones buried at once. When they want to dig up one, they will by one more. This may leave a backyard full of holes and bones.How do dogs decide where to buy their bones? A dog cannot buy a bone just anywhere. He must first find the perfect spot. This involves using his nose to find a spot that is free from other dogs and animals. Often it is near a tree or a large rock, but it could be anywhere in the yard. Once the dog finds the perfect spot, he uses his front paws to dig a hole drops the bone in and covers up the hole to protect his treasure.1. Dogs bury their favorite bones or chew toys by nature.A.

2025年高等教育自学考试自考《英语二》复习试卷与参考答案一、阅读判断（共10分）First QuestionPassage:The Impact of Social Media on CommunicationSocial media has become an integral part of our daily lives, changing the way we communicate and interact with one another. Platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram have billions of users worldwide, making them powerful tools for personal expression and social engagement. However, the rise of social media also brings challenges and concerns.One of the most significant impacts of social media is the speed at which information can be shared. News and personal updates spread rapidly, often reaching a global audience within seconds. This immediacy has transformed how people stay informed and has given individuals a voice that can reach far beyond their immediate circles.Despite these benefits, there are drawbacks to the fast-paced nature of social media communication. Misinformation can spread just as quickly as accurate information, leading to confusion and sometimes harm. Additionally,the pressure to maintain an active online presence can lead to increased stress and anxiety, particularly among younger users.Another aspect to consider is the effect social media has on face-to-face interactions. Some argue that reliance on digital platforms for communication can weaken interpersonal skills and reduce the quality of real-life relationships. However, others believe that social media enhances connections by allowing people to stay in touch regardless of physical distance.In conclusion, while social media offers many opportunities for communication and connection, it also presents challenges that need to be addressed. Balancing the benefits and risks of social media use is crucial for maintaining healthy communication practices.Questions:1、Social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter are used by millions of people around the world.•Answer: True2、The rapid spread of information on social media always leads to positive outcomes.•Answer: False3、Younger users are less likely to experience stress from social media than older users.•Answer: False4、Some experts believe that social media can negatively affect face-to-face communication skills.•Answer: True5、Maintaining a balance between the advantages and disadvantages of social media isimportant for effective communication.•Answer: True第二题Read the following passage and then answer the questions below.In recent years, the importance of environmental protection has been increasingly recognized by people worldwide. Governments and organizations are implementing various measures to reduce pollution and promote sustainable development. One of the most significant steps taken is the adoption of renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power, to reduce reliance on fossil fuels.The transition to renewable energy has several benefits. Firstly, it helps in reducing greenhouse gas emissions, which are a major contributor to global warming. Secondly, renewable energy sources are abundant and can be replenished naturally, making them more sustainable than fossil fuels. Lastly, the use of renewable energy can create new job opportunities and stimulate economic growth in the renewable energy sector.Despite these benefits, the shift to renewable energy has faced several challenges. One of the main challenges is the high initial investment required for the installation of renewable energy infrastructure. Additionally, some renewable energy sources, like solar and wind power, are not always available when they are most needed, leading to issues of intermittency. Finally, there is a lack of awareness and education about renewable energy among the general public, which can hinder the acceptance and adoption of these technologies.1、The adoption of renewable energy sources is a significant step towardsenvironmental protection.A.

It involves analyzing information to form a reasoned judgment. In education, it goes beyond memorization and encourages students to think deeply about what they learn. When students engage in critical thinking, they question assumptions, evaluate arguments, and solve problems systematically. This skill is essential not only for academic success but also for navigating the complexities of everyday life.In the modern world, where information is abundant and easily accessible,the ability to discern reliable sources from unreliable ones is more important than ever. Critical thinking enables individuals to sift through vast amounts of data and make informed decisions. Educators play a crucial role in fostering this skill by designing curricula that challenge students to think critically and by modeling critical thinking behaviors themselves.Moreover, critical thinking is closely linked with creativity and innovation. By questioning existing paradigms and exploring new possibilities, individuals can come up with innovative solutions to complex problems. This mindset is vital for progress in all fields, including science, technology, business, and the arts.To develop critical thinking skills, students must practice questioning, reasoning, and reflecting on their own beliefs and those of others. They should be encouraged to engage in debates, discussions, and problem-solving activities that require them to justify their viewpoints with evidence. Ultimately, the goal is to create a generation of thinkers who are capable of contributing positively to society.Cloze Test Questions:Fill in each blank with one of the words provided in the box below: •encourage•abundant•discern•navigate•foster1.In the modern world, where information is__________and easily accessible, the ability to discern reliable sources from unreliable ones is more important than ever.2.Critical thinking enables individuals to sift through vast amounts of data and make informed decisions, which helps them to__________the complexities of everyday life.cators play a crucial role in__________this skill by designing curricula that challenge students to think critically.4.To develop critical thinking skills, students must practice questioning, reasoning, and reflecting on their own beliefs and those of others, which should be __________d.5.The goal is to create a generation of thinkers who are capable of contributing positively to society, and this requires educatorsto__________such practices in the classroom.Answers:1.abundant2.navigate3.foster4.encouraged5.encourageThis cloze test is designed to assess the student’s understanding of the text and their ability to use context clues to determine the most appropriate word to fill in the blanks.

2024年1月自考英语二考试真题及答案全文共6篇示例，供读者参考篇1Certainly! Here is a 2,000 word essay in the voice of an elementary school student, written in English, about the January 2024 Self-Study English Test II Exam Questions and Answers:The January 2024 Self-Study English Test II Exam!Hey guys! It's me again, your favorite elementary school kid here to tell you all about the big English test I just took. It was the January 2024 Self-Study English Test II exam. Wow, that's a really long name! But I'm getting ahead of myself.Let me start from the beginning. A few months ago, my mom and dad told me I needed to take this huge English test. They said it was really important for getting into a good university later on. I wasn't too excited at first because, well, tests can be kind of boring. But then they promised me ice cream if I did well, so I agreed to study hard!My parents got me some really thick books to prepare. They had chapters on grammar, vocabulary, reading comprehension,writing, and even listening practice. The grammar part was probably the hardest for me. Who knew English had so many crazy rules about verbs, nouns, adjectives, and all that? My tutor tried her best to make it fun though. We played games like quiz shows and acted out little skits using the grammar I was learning.The vocabulary was a little easier because I like learning new words. My favorite was "serendipity" which means a happy unexpected discovery. See, I'm using my new vocabulary already! The reading comprehension sections helped me practice too. I had to read all kinds of stories and articles, then answer questions about the main ideas, characters, plot, and other details. Writing was interesting as I got to be creative and share my thoughts through essays and stories.Finally, there was the listening portion. Those tracks were tough because they spoke so fast! I had to listen carefully to conversations between characters, lectures, and news reports. Then I had to identify the mainpoints, speakers' attitudes, and other things like that. It took a lot of practice with my headphones on.Anyway, after weeks of studying hard, it was finally time for the big test day. I was a little nervous, but tried my best to stay calm like my parents said. The exam had sections just like thepractice materials - grammar, vocabulary, reading, writing, and listening. I worked relentlessly, putting all my new skills to use.When I finally bubbled in that last answer, I felt such a sense of relief! The test was over and I could just sit back and wait for the results. A few weeks later, the scores arrived and...I passed! I got a really high mark too. My parents were overjoyed and took me out for the biggest ice cream sundae ever to celebrate. All that hard work had paid off.Looking back, I realize how much I've grown in English. Before studying, a lot of it seemed like mumbo-jumbo. But now words, sentences, even long passages make sense to me. It's like I unlocked a secret code to understanding this whole other language. Who knows, maybe I'll be a writer, translator, or English teacher someday!For anyone else facing this exam in the future, here's my advice: Study hard, don't get discouraged, and always keep practicing. Those practice books and tutoring sessions helped me so much. And when test day comes, just relax, focus, and let all that preparation show through. Oh, and one more thing - don't forget to enjoy an epic ice cream celebration when you pass!That's all I've got to say about my big English exam adventure. It was challenging but amazing at the same time. I'm really proud of myself for sticking with it. And who knows what other cool linguistics mysteries I'll uncover next? The world of English continues to unfold before me! Okay, I'll stop rambling now. Thanks for listening, guys! Let me know if you need any other elementary school kid wisdom.篇2My English Test for Grown-UpsHi friends! My name is Timmy and I'm 8 years old. I love learning new things, especially English! My mom and dad are taking a big English test for grown-ups called the "Self-Taught English Test 2." They've been studying really hard, so I decided to make up my own test for them to practice. I hope you enjoy my questions and answers!Part 1: ReadingOne day, my friend Jake and I were playing outside. The sunny sky turned grey and it started raining cats and dogs! We ran inside to stay dry.Question 1: What's another way to say "it rained really hard?"A) It rained kittens and puppiesB) It rained cats and dogsC) It rained bucketsD) It rained elephants and hip篇3The Big English Test Adventure!Hi there! My name is Lily and I'm going to tell you all about the crazy adventure I had taking the big English test this year. It was super important because it helps decide if I get to go to the middle school I really want to go to next year. I was really nervous about it, but I studied really hard and I think I did a pretty good job!The test had four parts - listening, reading, writing, and translating. I'm going to go through each one and let you know how it went. Get ready for an exciting tale!ListeningFor the listening part, we had to listen to recordings and answer multiple choice questions about what we heard. I thought this would be the hardest part for me, but it actually wasn't too bad!The first recording was about a boy named Jack and his pet dog Rufus. Jack was telling his mom all about the fun things he and Rufus liked to do together, like go for walks in the park and play fetch. The questions asked things like what Rufus' name was and where they went for walks. Easy peasy!Then there was a longer recording that was sort of like a short story. It was about two friends, Emma and Sofia, who really wanted to go to the new water park that opened up in their town. But their parents said they had to earn the money for the tickets themselves. So they decided to set up a lemonade stand to make money. There were lots of funny details about the crazy stuff that happened while they were running their lemonade stand. Like a bunch of bees came because the lemonade was so sweet! And a big dog knocked over their whole stand at one point. The questions about that one were a little trickier, but I feel like I got most of them right.ReadingFor the reading part, we had two passages to read and then had to answer comprehension questions about them. One was pretty straightforward, just a simple story about a boy who really wanted a puppy for his birthday. The other one was a bit harder - it was more like an article about space exploration.The puppy story questions were simple stuff like "What did Tommy want for his birthday?" and "Why did he think his parents wouldn't get him a puppy at first?" For the space one, the questions were things like "According to the passage, what are some of the challenges of sending astronauts to Mars?" and "Which piece of new technology is helping make long-distance space travel more possible?" I'm not super into science and space, so that one was pretty difficult for me. But I tried my best!WritingThen came the writing section, which is usually my favorite part. For the first writing task, we had to read a short story about a girl who went on a camping trip with her family. We were supposed to write a new ending to the story in about 120 words.In the original story, they were all having a great time camping and hiking and looking at nature. Until the last lines which said "Suddenly, dark clouds filled the sky and they heard aloud clap of thunder. What would happen next?" So I had to continue from there and wrap it up.I wrote about how they all quickly ran back to their tent to take shelter from the storm. Then I described a huge thunderstorm with flashes of lightning and heavy rain pouring down. Their tent started leaking and they all got soaked! But then the sun came out again after the storm passed, and they built a campfire to dry off. They ended up having a great time after all, roasting marshmallows and telling stories. I thought my ending was pretty good!The second writing task was an opinion essay prompt. We had to write approximately 200 words in response to the question "Do you think kids should be allowed to have mobile phones? Why or why not?"Those prompts are always so tricky because you're supposed to discuss both sides. So I started by saying that I do think kids should be allowed phones for safety reasons, like being able to call their parents if needed. But then I discussed some of the downsides too, like kids maybe getting distracted and playing games instead of paying attention in class.Overall, I argued for allowing phones but with some rules, like only being allowed to use them at certain times. And maybeparents having ways to monitor and limit the apps/games. I tried to acknowledge the different perspectives and find a balanced stance. Writing has always been one of my strengths, so I felt pretty confident about that section.TranslationThe translation part was pretty wild! For some reason, instead of the typical format of translating sentences from English to our native language or vice versa, this test had us translating between English and some made-up fantasy language. It was so weird!The made-up language used the Latin alphabet but with a bunch of crazy made-up words that looked sort ofEnglish-inspired but not really. Like "glomped" and "turven" and "spront." Super random! I've never seen anything like it.We had to translate short passages between this weird fantasy language and English in both directions. Definitely the strangest part of the test for me. I just kind of had to use context clues from the rest of the passage to try to figure out what the made-up words might mean and do my best.Some of the translator instructions said things like "It is very important that spronts dopple the turven daily to remain jordy."Using clues from the full paragraph around it, I guessed that "spronts" might mean some kind of animal/creature, "turven" might be their food/grass, "dopple" could be "eat", and "jordy" could mean "healthy." So my translation was "It is very important that [creatures] eat their [grass/food] daily to remain [healthy]."I have no idea if I got those right or not! That entire translation section was pretty much a crazy guessing game. But it was kind of fun in a weird way too? I'd never experienced anything like that on a test before!The End?Phew, that's finally the end of my test day saga! Looking back, although parts of it were pretty strange and challenging, I think I held my own overall. Some sections like writing went well, while others like the fantasy translation were just flat-out bizarre.I'm really hoping I did well enough to get into that middle school program I want. But no matter what, it was definitely an unforgettable, one-of-a-kind exam experience! An adventure for the books.Thanks for letting me share my wild test day story. I'll leave you with one of the made-up words to ponder - what on earthcould "glomped" possibly mean?? Who knows! But I sure had fun trying to figure it out.篇4My English Exam Adventure!Hi friends! I'm so excited to tell you about the big English exam I took last month. It was the January 2024 self-taught English Test 2 and let me tell you, it was quite an adventure!The exam had four parts - listening, reading, writing, and speaking. I was a little nervous at first, but I studied really hard with my English tutor. She helped me practice all the different sections.For the listening part, we had to listen to recordings and answer multiple choice questions. There were conversations between people, news reports, and even a story! One of the conversations was between two friends deciding what movie to watch. The reading section had longer passages to read and questions to answer too.My favorite was the writing section! We had to write a short essay responding to a prompt. The prompt asked us to describe our favorite family tradition and why it is meaningful. I wrote allabout how my family always goes camping in the summer and we roast marshmallows over the campfire. I love falling asleep in the tent listening to the crickets!Then there was the speaking part. We had to answer questions and describe pictures out loud while being recorded. One of the pictures showed a busy city scene with tall buildings and people walking down the street. I tried to use lots of descriptive words like "towering" and "bustling."After the exam, my tutor went over the answers with me. I did pretty well on the listening and reading, but I made a few silly mistakes on the writing by forgetting some punctuation. She said my speaking was good except I accidentally mixed up "borrow" and "lend" when answering one of the questions. Oops!Overall though, I felt really proud for challenging myself with this big exam. My tutor said I worked hard and showed great improvement in all my English skills. She thinks I'll do even better next time!Now I can't wait for my results to arrive in the mail. Hopefully I did well enough to get that new bike my parents promised if I pass! Keeping my fingers crossed.Well, that's all about my big English exam day. It was kind of stressful but also kind of fun! I'm just glad it's over and I can relax for a little while. Thanks for listening to my story. Let me know if you've ever taken a big test like this too!Your friend,[Your Name]Listening Section:A: What movie do you want to see?B: I'm not sure. Maybe an action film?A: Okay, how about the new superhero one that just came out?B: Works for me! I hear it has great special effects.News report excerpt: Officials are warning residents to avoid driving today if possible due to the major snowstorm hitting the area. Upwards of 12 inches of snow is expected throughout the day, making roads extremely hazardous...Story excerpt: ...Goldilocks continued wandering through the forest. Up ahead, she noticed a strange little cottage. Being a curious girl, she went up to have a look inside...Reading Section Passage:Every four years, cities around the world compete to host the Olympic Games - one of the biggest sporting events on the planet. Thousands of athletes gather from all different nations to compete in a variety of sports from gymnastics to swimming to track and field events.Hosting the Olympics is considered a great honor, but it also comes with immense preparation and cost. The host city must construct massive sporting venues and accommodations to house all of the athletes and spectators traveling in from around the globe. They must also implement intense security measures to ensure the safety of all in attendance...Writing Prompt:Describe a meaningful family tradition you celebrate and explain why it is important to you.Speaking Questions:What did you do last weekend?Describe the picture showing people in a city.Which activities do you prefer - borrowing or lending books from the library?篇5My English Self-Study Exam Adventure!Hi everyone! My name is Emma and I'm 10 years old. I just took the big English Level 2 self-study exam in January 2024 and I wanted to tell you all about it! It was a really exciting experience.First, I had to sign up and pay the fees a few months before the exam. My parents helped me with that part. Then I spent a lot of time studying English vocabulary, grammar rules, reading comprehension strategies, and writing skills. It was hard work but I tried my best!Finally, exam day arrived on January 12th, 2024. I was so nervous that morning! My stomach felt like it had a million butterflies fluttering around inside. But I remembered to take some deep breaths like my teacher showed us. I ate a good breakfast too to keep my energy up.The exam was held at my local high school. There were lots of students there, some young like me and some adults too. We all had to show our identification and sign in before being allowed into the testing room. The room was really big with rowsand rows of individual desks. I found my assigned seat and tried to relax.Once everyone was seated, the exam proctors gave us our test booklets and scrap paper. They read the rules out loud – no cheating, no talking, no leaving the room except for bathroom breaks. I was ready!The first section was listening comprehension. We had to listen to audio recordings of conversations and answer multiple choice questions about what we heard. Some of the accents were really hard to understand at first! But I focused really carefully and used the strategies I had practiced.Next up was reading comprehension. We read some passages and answered questions proving we understood the main ideas, details, vocabulary words, and the author's purpose. There were a few really long passages that made my eyes get a little tired halfway through. I made sure to take a break and blink my eyes when that happened.The hardest part for me was the written composition section. We had to write a short essay responding to a prompt about our favorite books. I planned out my thesis and examples first like my teacher taught me. Then I wrote and rewrote my draft, checking over my spelling, grammar, and organization. Phew!After that was the grammar section which was actually kind of fun for me. I love learning about parts of speech, verb tenses, and sentence structures. There were some tricky questions but I tried using process of elimination when I got stuck.Finally, the last part was the oral interview section. One at a time, we went into a private room with a examiner and had a conversation in English. The examiner asked me questions about my hobbies, family life, future goals and other topics. I did my best to respond clearly and naturally. Practicing conversational English with my parents really paid off!When everything was over, I felt so proud of myself for working so hard and making it through the whole four-hour exam. A couple months later, I got my results in the mail – I passed! I have an official certificate now proving my English skills. Yay!Even though some parts of the exam were super challenging, it was an awesome experience overall. I learned a lot and feel more confident than ever in my English abilities now. I'm so glad I took this opportunity to test myself.If you're thinking about taking the self-taught English exam, I totally recommend it! Just make sure you study really hard beforehand. Learn all the grammar concepts, practice yourreading comprehension, do lots of writing exercises, and work on your listening and speaking skills too. Don't be nervous on exam day because you'll be well-prepared.Let me know if you have any other questions! I'm happy to share more tips about my exam experience. Study hard and you can pass the English Level 2 exam too! Thanks for reading my story.篇6My January Self-Study English TestHi! My name is Timmy and I'm 10 years old. I just took a really big test called the January 2024 Self-Study English Test 2. It was super hard but I tried my best. I want to tell you all about the questions and my answers!The first part was listening comprehension. They played some audio recordings and asked questions about what we heard. One was about a family going on vacation. The dad was trying to pack but kept forgetting things. His daughter helped him remember stuff like his toothbrush and phone charger. I had to answer questions like "What did the daughter remind her dad to pack?"Another listening was about two friends deciding what movie to see. One wanted an action movie but the other wanted a comedy. They went back and forth for a while but finally picked a funny superhero movie they both liked. A question was "What kind of movie did the friends decide to see?"Next was the reading section. We had to read some passages and answer comprehension questions on them. One story was about a brave firefighter who rescued a little girl from a burning building. He carried her out on his shoulders. A question was "How did the firefighter get the girl out of the fire?"Another reading was about the history of basketball. It explained who invented it and how the rules were created. There was a question like "Based on the passage, how did the sport of basketball originate?"The writing section was hard! We had to write a letter to our teacher about our favorite school subject and why we enjoy it. I wrote about how much I love science class because we get to do cool experiments. I described making a baking soda and vinegar volcano. Hopefully I explained it clearly enough!Grammar was probably the easiest part for me. They tested things like subject-verb agreement, pronoun usage, and verb tenses. One question was "John and I _____ going to the parklater." You had to pick the right verb to agree with the compound subject.Vocabulary asked us to fill in blanks with words based on the sentence context. Like "My puppy is very _____ and loves fetching sticks." You'd put a word meaning energetic or active. Some of those stumped me!All in all, it was a tough test over reading, writing, listening, grammar, and vocabulary. I felt okay about my answers for most of it. But those listening passages went by so fast, I may have missed some details. I'll find out my score soon though!Even though tests can be stressful, I know it's important to always try your best. That way you can show what you've learned so far. And any mistakes are okay, because that's how we learn for next time. I'm just happy I worked really hard and didn't give up!Whew, that's everything I can remember about my big English test day. Getting through all those sections took concentration, but also a little brain break times. Tests are no fun, but learning is! I'll keep practicing my English skills for the next exam. Anyway, thanks for reading about my test experience! Let me know if you have any other questions!。

202X年10月试题一、阅读推断Black FridayEveryone likes to shop for gifts for the holiday season, but few people know the history of holiday shopping. While people have heard of Black Friday, most do not know its origins. Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving (感恩节). On this day most retail stores open their doors very early. Some as early as 4 am. In addition, they provide their customers with great discounts on products. With this in mind, it is clear to see why so many shoppers buy many of their Christmas gifts on Black Friday.Black Friday is not as old as many people think. In fact, it is believed that the first Black Friday was held in the 1970s in the USA. It was a day when stores decided to mark the start of the holiday season. In order to draw more customers, they offered great discounts. All products sold very well. This large success resulted in the name Black Friday. It was so named because the stores were “in the black〞. This financial term means the stores made a lot of money. However, it was not until around 202X that Black Friday really started to gain in popularity. Today in the USA, countless advertisers proudly announce their Black Friday sales. They hope to attract shoppers into their stores.Black Friday is a day when many shoppers in the USA go out and buy gifts, even though Christmas Eve is still a more popular day to shop. Thanks to the Internet, it is now possible to get some excellent Black Friday deals online. So if you don’t want to get to the stores by 4 am, this is the perfect way to still get items at reduced prices.1.Many people know the history of Black Friday.A. TrueB. FalseC. Not Given答案：B解析：原文第—段“While people have heard of Black Friday, most do not know its origins.“意为当人们听到黑色星期五时，很多人不了解它的起源。
