if histail is straight, it means he is getting ready for a fight ; and if his tail is tucked (塞) behind his legs, itmeans he is giving up the fight．Unlike dogs, cats' tail language is not so expressive． When a cat feels threatened, he puffs him-self up to appear big and his tail shakes with tension． And when he is displeased with something, helashes out(甩动) his tail．The tail language of dogs and cats has a little story behind it． Earlier, when dogs and cats hadnot become friends with human beings, they were predators． They used to hunt other animals for theirfood． When dogs went out hunting with their friends, tail language came handy． When they were closeto each other, dogs could use facial expressions to talk． But, for long-distance c,o~mmunication, theyused their tails． Unlike dogs, cats liked to hunt alone． So, they did not need to use tail language toooften． As a result, their vocabulary in tail language is much smaller than that of dogs'．(本题12分)1(单选题)What does it mean when a dog's tail is straight?(本题3分)A It has a lot to say to you．B It wants to stop fighting．C It is going to fight．D It likes to be patted．标准答案： C2(单选题)A cat tries to appear big when it is __________ .(本题3分)A facing a dangerB unhappyC ready to huntD hungry标准答案： A3(单选题)Which of the following does the author intend to say?(本题3分)A Dogs and cats are not good friends．B Dogs are much friendlier than cats．C Dogs and cats are usually good pets．D Dogs use tail language more than cats．标准答案： D4(单选题)In the last paragraph, the underlined word "predato．rs" refers to __________ .(本题3分)A animals that follow and obey other animalsB animals that kill and eat other animalsC animals that live in the wildD animals kept by people标准答案： B24(阅读理解题)根据下面内容，回答问题：Like any teenagers, the face of One Teen Story is changing fast． Just a year old, the monthlymagazine of short fiction for young people is getting a new editor-in-chief: Patrick Ryan ,47, the asso-ciate editor of Granta from 2009 to 2013． He left the London-based literary journal last month．Editing One Teen Story--the younger sibling(姐妹篇）of One Story magazine--will offer Ryan achance to reach a whole new audience． "It's really the only magazine for young adult short fiction,"he says from his office in New York． "It's tremendously exciting that there are younger people outthere who have subscriptions and look forward to getting these stories once a month． That form is usu-ally only presented when it's forced upon them in schools． "Designed for readers 14 and up, One Teen Story publishes nine issues a year． Like its siblingmagazine, it doesn't carry photographs or advertising． It's just exactly what it says:one story per issue．Ryan says young people are "looking for engaging reads about people whom they can identifywith． It'snot about having a message or positive spin (说教)． It always starts on a character level,and it has to have an interesting story． If you look at the ' Twilight' characters and the ' HarryPotter' characters,they feel very contemporary． " Ryan also sees the magazine as a way to encourage talented authors． "I would love to make OneTeen Story the first publication for writers who then go on and keep at this business． I just really lovethe idea that this magazine would be the starting point for somebody--would be the push to make a talented writer feel that it was woah keeping at this．”(本题12分)1(单选题)Who is Patrick Ryan?(本题3分)A He is the editor．in．chief of Granta．B He is the editor—in—chief of One Story．C He is the editor．in—chief of“Twilight”．、D He is the editor—in-chief of One Teen Story．标准答案： D2(单选题)What is One Teen Story?(本题3分)A It is a story magazine for teenagers．B It is a London—based literary iournal．C It is a column of a newspaper．D It is a magazine of science fiction．标准答案： A3(单选题)According to Ryan。
成人本科英语考试试题及答案解析(二十一)一、Reading Comprehension（共15小题,共30.0分）There are serval passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.第1题If you are like most people, your intelligence varies from season to season. You are probably a lot sharper in the spring than you are at any other time of the year. (76) A noted scientist, Ellsworth Huntington(1876- 1974), concluded from other men's work and his own among people in different climates that climate and temperature have a definite effect on our mental abilities.(77) He found that cool weather is much more favorable for creative thinking than is summer heat. This does not mean that all people are less intelligent in the summer than they are during the rest of the year. (78)It does mean, however, that the mental abilities of large numbers of people tend to be lowest in the summer.Spring appears to be the best period of the year for thinking. (79)One reason may be that in spring man's mental abilities are affected by the same factors that bring about great changes in all nature.Fall is the next-best season, then winter. As for summer, it seems to be good time to take a long vacation from thinking.According to this passage, your intelligence probably ______.A stays the same throughout the yearB varies from season to seasonC changes with daysD changes from year to year【正确答案】：C【本题分数】：2.0分【答案解析】[分析] 见首句。

Offices use computers to copy letters, record business and keep in touch with other offices. People have been using computers in their homes to keep track of the money they spend.One important new use for computers is for entertainment.

He was glad and stared at it for some time, then wrote “105” on the corner of the trademark with a pencil, meaning he had already drunk 105 bottles of the famous wine. Two days later a stranger came. He offered to pay 5 yuanfor the empty Mao Tai bottle. Mr. Chen was pleased and sold it. Several weeks later, his second son brought him another bottle of Mao Tai. While examining and enjoying it, he was suddenly terrified—he found “105”—the very mark on it.71.

According to the story, who do you say learned a lesson?A. The strangerB. Mr. ChenC. His neighbourD. Mr. Chen’s eldest sonPassage FourDo you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it is painful? This might be calledlaziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.During the hours when you labour through your work you may say that you’re “hot”. That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comes during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues (自言自语) as: “Get up, John! You’ll be late for work again!”The possible explanation to the troub le is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.You can’t change your energy cycle, but you c an learn to make your life it better.
