She wasn’t aware that the place is vegan and was looking for some meat. My wife and I talked up the place and invited her over to try some of our tofu. Debra tried it, nodded and went out.After a few minutes, she and her mother both walked back in. We were having the rest of our meal at that time, so we told her what we had ordered. Debra then asked the waitress to just repeat our order for them. Next, Debra said, "And we want to pay for their meal", pointing to my wife and me. We tried to say no, but Debra wouldn’t listen.That was not the end of it. Hugs were in order. Debra came over to our table and my wife got up to hug her. Debra hugged my wife and put $100 into her hand. My wife firmly said NO, but Debra insisted. Debra kept talking about our kindness, and we did the same about hers and her mother’s. With tears in the eyes, the workers were blown away by this whole exchange between four strangers. I left the waiters a tip that would cover all of our meals and we were on our way.I’ve been witnessing so much kindness, especially over the last few years, as I began to pay more attention. We now have a new favorite restaurant and every time we go there my plan is to pay for someone else’s meal.4.Why did Debra go out after trying some tofu?A.To bring her mother in.B. To look after her mother.C. To get away from the food.D. To look for another restaurant.5. What did Debra insist on?A. Hugging the author’s wife.B. Ordering a meal for the author.C. Treating the author and his wifeD. Tipping the waiters and waitress.6. How did the workers feel when seeing the exchange between four strangers?A. Curious.B. Funny.C. Surprised.D. Touched.7. What can we know about the author and Debra?A. They’ve been friends.B. They were both vegans.C. They met for the first time.D. They once worked together.CDogs are our best friends. That’s especially true after a disaster, such as an earthquake. When buildings fall down, search and rescue dogs help find trapped people. Dogs’ amazing noses can pick up the smell of survivors. Now scientists have developed an electronic tool that does the same thing. It’s taking smell detection(探测) to a whole new level.The new invention is a sort of electronic nose, which can detect extremely low levels of many compounds(化合物) from people’s skin. This isn’t the first time engineers have developed such an object. Earlier models, however, have been bulky and expensive. They could not detect low levels of target compounds either. The new one is inexpensive and small enough to fit inside hand-held equipment.The electronic nose can detect extremely slight smell of more than one compound at the same time. "Being able to do this, in such a small object, is the significant discovery," says Sotiris E. Pratsinis, Professor of Process Engineering&Materials Science at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich. His team tested it in special spaces. They were like the small spaces where people might be trapped. Chemicals given off by the volunteers built up inside. The electronic equipment detected those compounds at unbelievably low levels.The results were good news for the research team. But they may be not for our four-legged friends, who could soon be out of a job. "Ideally, this technology could replace search and rescue dogs," Pratsinis says.Stephen Taylor, an electrical engineer, agrees that the new technology has some benefits over dogs. Still, he thinks it may be too soon to have our trusty friends retire. He suspects, "I foresee that such an object could add to the fine work done by the dogs." Taylor also pointed out some potential limitations of the new invention. "E-noses are useful, but can be very likely to be affected by unstable readings andinterruption," he says.8.Why does the author talk about dogs at the beginning?A.To catch the readers’ attention.B.To introduce the topic about e-noses.C.To show what search and rescue dogs do.D.To add background information for discussion.9. Which of the following best explains "bulky" underlined in paragraph 2?A. ComplexB. FragileC. HandyD. Large10. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A. What e-noses’ working principle is.B. How e-noses are made.C. What differences between dogs and e-noses are.D. How powerful e-noses are.11. What does Stephen Taylor mean?A. Dogs and e-noses could work together.B. Search and rescue dogs will retire soon.C. E-noses are more reliable than noses of dogs.D. Dogs are better at finding out trapped people.DTo be sure, only children experienced some things differently from those with sisters and brothers. Many feel more pressure to succeed. They also tend to look only to their parents as role models in the absence of brothers and sisters.In India, 10-year-old Saviraj Sankpal founded a support group for the tiny minority(少数) of only children. Among other things, the group does volunteer work to fight against the false idea that they are not responsible. "People think we’re treated too kindly and ruined," says Sankpal, a computer engineering student. "But I'd like to remind them how lonely it can get."Most only children, however, say they wish for sisters or brothers only when it comes to caring for aging, unhealthy parents. Britain's David Emerson, co-author of the book The Only Child, says that such a person has to make all the decisionsalone. Emerson knows from experience. After his father died, he chose to move his elderly mother from their family home, where she was vulnerable (易受攻击的) to house breakers, to a new one with more safety. "The move was quite hard on her, and she might feel that I pushed her into it, "he says, "After all, I am left with that responsibility."In the future, more and more only children will probably face similar choices. With working mothers increasing, many families are finding they simply don't have the time, money or energy to have more than one child. As only children become common, perhaps the world will realize that the charge made against them is unfair.12.The author’s attitude towards only children is .A.CriticalB. ObjectiveC. HostileD. Unjust13. It can be inferred from the passage that only children's parents should ___________.A. found a support group for their only childrenB. do volunteer work to help their only childrenC. let their only children make all the decisions aloneD. set good examples for their only children14. Emerson decided to move his elderly mother to a new house because he ___________.A. is the only one who cares about herB. doesn't want to leave her aloneC. wants to share the responsibility with herD. is worried about her safety15. The main idea of the passage is that ________.A. only children are ruined and irresponsibleB. only children have to face many challengesC. most only children want to have brothers and sistersD. most only children share their responsibility with their parents第二节(共5小题;每小题2分, 满分10分)根据短文内容从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

APhiladelphia offers a ton of attractions that are suitable for people of every age and here are some family—friendly attractions.Spruce Street Harbor ParkSpruce Street Harbor Park, one of the best urban beaches in America, is an outdoor heaven on the Delaware River waterfront. Visitors can relax in a hammock, play on the playgrounds, and p lay games like table tennis and giant chess. Don’t miss out on the park at night, when colorful LED lights hanging from treetops make the entire area bright.Blue Cross River RinkOffering ice skating in the winter and roller skating in the summer, Blue Cross River Rink creates a fun, outdoor experience for the whole family. Visitors can play on the nine-hole mini-golf course during the summer, and enjoy eats and drinks from the on-site(现场的)bar and restaurant all year round.Sesame PlaceBig Bird, Elmo and the other stars of Sesame Street come out and play at Sesame Place, the only theme park in the nation starring the popular TV show’s most lovable characters. A water park, interactive activities, parades, fireworks and shows add to the fun.Once Upon a Nation Storytelling BenchesOn summer days, uniformed and professional storytellers at 13 storytellingbenches throughout Philadelphia’s Historic District entertain visitors with true, free, three-to-five minute tales about the colonial(殖民的)era as part of Once Upon a Nation. Children can pick up a Story Flag at any storytelling bench, and then collect a star from every storyteller on their journeys. Flags with all the stars can get free rides on the Parx Liberty Carousel at Franklin Square.1. Who would most probably go to Spruce Street Harbor Park?A. People who are fond of colorful lights.B. People who have a preference for skating.C. People who want to have a relaxing day.D. People who are interested in water activities.2. Which place would fans of Big Bird be interested in?A. Blue Cross River RinkB. Sesame PlaceC. The Parx Liberty CarouselD. Spruce Street Harbor Park3. What can we know about Philadelphia Storytelling Benches?A. It can be visited all year round.B. It is available at a small charge.C. It is educational for children.D. It is aimed at serving the public.BThe Chinese television reality show called “Wonderful Friends”, where entertainers hug whale sharks, kiss lions, feed pandas and dress up baby chimpanzees, has come under fire from wildlife protectors who want it to be stopped, saying such activities are cruel and are dangerous for both the humans and animals.The show is the latest hit from Hunan TV, which has attracted more than 196,000 followers. In each show, popular stars are given zoo-keeping tasks that allow them to interact with wild animals in order to bring humans and animals closer together.Animal welfare advocates(倡导者) say that is exactly what should be avoided. Dave Neale of Animals Asia (an advocacy group) said, “It is hugely misleading to the public about the needs and welfare of captive animals (圈养动物) and putting the animals’ welfare and health at risk.”“What they don’t realize is that wild animals need space,” said Xie Yan, azoologist and China director of the Wildlife Conservation Society. “Putting clothes on chimpanzees is not as adorable as you may think from the animals’ point of view.I guess their idea w as to get their viewers to love and protect the animals,” Ms. Xie added, “but we do not agree with this approach for entertainment.”Using famous people to focus public attention on wildlife is a common practice in conservation campaigns. The Chinese basketball legend Yao Ming went to Africa and highlighted the problem of elephant and rhinoceros poaching (偷猎) in the documentary “The End of the Wild”. “But differently, he, as a human observer, kept his distance and was there to see the hard truth of poaching, and that is different from a show created to attract viewers.” Ms Xie said.Critics (评论家)also argue that the show violates (违反) Chinese wildlife protection laws.4. Which one of the following statements is TRUE?A. Many people like the show because of its dangerous activities.B. Xie Yan is against persuading the public to love and protect animals.C. Some think the show is against wildlife protection laws of China.D. The reality show makes no difference to wildlife at all.5. According to Ms Xie, “Wonderful Friends” is basically different from “The End of the Wild”, because ______.A. they both invite different popular stars to show upB. their purposes and ways to approach animals are differentC. they shoot (拍摄) different numbers and kinds of speciesD. their filming locations are different6. What’s the author’s attitude towards “Wonderful Friends”?A. Worried.B. Uninterested.C. Disappointed.D. Not mentioned.7. The passage would most likely be found ______.B. in a newspaper A. on a notice boardC. in a fashion magazineD. in an ad of wildlife protectionCI cry easily. I cried when a boy in the film suffered from an incurable disease. I cried when an athlete broke a world record.One night my wife and I were going to dinner at a friend's.As we went towards the house, I noticed a car pulling out from the sidewalk. Just ahead, another car was waiting to back into theparking space.But before he could do so a yellow car came up from behind and sneaked into the space.While my wife went ahead into our friend' s house, I stepped into the street.“Hey,”I said, “thi s parking space belongs to that guy.”I gestured towards the man ahead, who was looking back angrily. At that moment I was feeling pretty manly.“Mind your own business!”the driver told me.“No,”I said. “You don' t understand. That fellow was waiting to back into this space.”Things quickly heated up, until finally he jumped out of the car. My God, he wasextremely large. He grabbed me and shook his rock of a fist at me.I tasted blood. I was terrified.Almost in a panic, I ran to my friend's front door. As a former Marine(海军), as a man, I felt absolutely embarrassed as my wife and friends asked me what had happened. All I could say was that I had had an argument about a parking space. They were sensitive and letit go at that.Perhaps half an hour later, the doorbell rang.For some reason I was sure that the huge man had returned for me.My blood ran cold. My hostess got up to answer it, but I stopped her. I knew I had to face up to my fear.I opened the door. There he stood. “I came back to ap ologize,”he said in a low voice. “I am ashamed of myself. The Brooklyn NavyYard where I've worked for ten years is closing. Today I got laid off. I' m not myself. I hope you’ll accept my apology.”I remembered that after I closed the door, I stood there for a few minutes alone with tears in my eyes.8. What did the author do when a yellow car drove into the parking space?A.He blamed the driver. B.He beat the driver.C.He asked the driver to apologize.D.He ran to his friend' s house for help.9. What do we know about the yellow car's driver?A.He was rude and liked fighting.B.He lost his job and felt terrible that dayC.He was famous for his bad temper.D.He tried to get the author's parking space.10. What does the underlined sentence mean?A.I became quite calm.B.I couldn't move with cold.C.I felt extremely frightened. D.I was too angry to say anything.11. What kind of person is the author?A.Direct and serious. B .Humorous and open-minded.C.Honest and ambitious. D .Warm-hearted and understandingDIt’s a common phenomenon that modern people now have difficulty sleeping. Drinking milk is thought to be helpful. A warm drink of milk before bed has long been the best choice for those wanting a good night’s sleep. But now a study has found it really does help people nod off—if it is milked from a cow at night.Researchers have discovered that “night milk” contains more melatonin(褪黑激素), which has been proven to help people feel sleepy and reduce anxiety. The study,by researchers from Seoul, South Korea, involved mice being fed with dried milk powdermade from cows milked both during the day and at night. Those given night milk, which contained 10 times the amount of melatonin, were less active and less anxious thanthose fed with the milk collected during daytime, according to the study publishedin The Journal of Medicinal Food.Night milk quickened the start of sleep and causedthe mice to sleep longe r. While the effect of cows’ milk harvested at different timehas not been tested on humans up to now, taking melatonin drugs has been suggestedto those who are struggling to fall asleep at night.Previous studies have also indicated that milk can be excellent for helping sleep because of the calcium content, which helps people to relax. Milk is also sugar-freeand additive-free with nutritionists recommending skimmed milk as the best choice before bed as it is the least fattening. The more fat you take in before bedtime,the greater burden you will put on your body at night.12.According to the text, the mice fed with daytime milk_________.A. started sleep more easilyB. were less activeC. were more anxiousD. sleep longer13.Which of the following is true of melatonin according to the text?A. It’s used in sleeping drugsB. It’s been tested on mice for tentimesC. It can make people more energeticD. It exists in milk in great amount 14.What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Milk and MelatoninB. Night Milk and SleepC. Little Fat in MilkD. Milk Drinking and Health15.How does the author support the theme of the text?A. By giving examplesB. By stating argumentsC. By explaining statistical dataD. By providing research results第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

She wasn’t aware that the place is vegan and was looking for some meat. My wife and I talked up the place and invited her over to try some of our tofu. Debra tried it, nodded and went out.After a few minutes, she and her mother both walked back in. We were having the rest of our meal at that time, so we told her what we had ordered. Debra then asked the waitress to just repeat our order for them. Next, Debra said, "And we want to pay for their meal", pointing to my wife and me. We tried to say no, but Debra wouldn’t listen.That was not the end of it. Hugs were in order. Debra came over to our table and my wife got up to hug her. Debra hugged my wife and put $100 into her hand. My wife firmly said NO, but Debra insisted. Debra kept talking about our kindness, and we did the same about hers and her mother’s. With tears in the eyes, the workers were blown away by this whole exchange between four strangers.

The electronic equipment detected those compounds at unbelievably low levels.The results were good news for the research team. But they may be not for our four-legged friends, who could soon be out of a job. "Ideally, this technology could replace search and rescue dogs," Pratsinis says.Stephen Taylor, an electrical engineer, agrees that the new technology has some benefits over dogs.

They also tend to look only to their parents as role models in the absence of brothers and sisters.In India, 10-year-old Saviraj Sankpal founded a support group for the tiny minority(少数) of only children. Among other things, the group does volunteer work to fight against the false idea that they are not responsible. "People think we’re treated too kindly and ruined," says Sankpal, a computer engineering student. "But I'd like to remind them how lonely it can get."Most only children, however, say they wish for sisters or brothers only when it comes to caring for aging, unhealthy parents.

After his father died, he chose to move his elderly mother from their family home, where she was vulnerable (易受攻击的) to house breakers, to a new one with more safety. "The move was quite hard on her, and she might feel that I pushed her into it, "he says, "After all, I am left with that responsibility."In the future, more and more only children will probably face similar choices.

APhiladelphia offers a ton of attractions that are suitable for people of every age and here are some family—friendly attractions.Spruce Street Harbor ParkSpruce Street Harbor Park, one of the best urban beaches in America, is an outdoor heaven on the Delaware River waterfront. Visitors can relax in a hammock, play on the playgrounds, and play games like table tennis and giant chess. Don’t miss out on the park at night, when colorful LED lights hanging from treetops make the entire area bright.Blue Cross River RinkOffering ice skating in the winter and roller skating in the summer, Blue Cross River Rink creates a fun, outdoor experience for the whole family. Visitorscan play on the nine-hole mini-golf course during the summer, and enjoy eats and drinks from the on-site(现场的)bar and restaurant all year round.Sesame PlaceBig Bird, Elmo and the other stars of Sesame Street come out and play at Sesame Place, the only theme park in the nation starring the popular TV show’s most lovable characters. A water park, interactive activities, parades, fireworks and shows add to the fun.Once Upon a Nation Storytelling BenchesOn summer days, uniformed and professional storytellers at 13 storytelling benches throughout Philadelphia’s Historic District entertain visitors with true, free, three-to-five minute tales about the colonial(殖民的)era as part of Once Upon a Nation. Children can pick up a Story Flag at any storytelling bench, and then collect a star from every storyteller on their journeys. Flags with all the stars can get free rides on the Parx Liberty Carousel at Franklin Square.1. Who would most probably go to Spruce Street Harbor Park?A. People who are fond of colorful lights.B. People who have a preference for skating.C. People who want to have a relaxing day.D. People who are interested in water activities.2. Which place would fans of Big Bird be interested in?A.

It is available at a small charge.C. It is educational for children.D. It is aimed at serving the public.BThe Chinese television reality show called “Wonderful Friends”, where entertainers hug whale sharks, kiss lions, feed pandas and dress up baby chimpanzees, has come under fire from wildlife protectors who want it to be stopped, saying such activities are cruel and are dangerous for both the humans and animals.The show is the latest hit from Hunan TV, which has attracted more than 196,000 followers. In each show, popular stars are given zoo-keeping tasks that allow them to interact with wild animals in order to bring humans and animals closer together.Animal welfare advocates(倡导者) say that is exactly what should be avoided. Dave Neale of Animals Asia (an advocacy group) said, “It is hugely misleading to the public about the needs and welfare of captive animals (圈养动物) and putting the animals’welfare and health at risk.”“What they don’t realize is that wild animals need space,”said Xie Yan, a zoologist and China director of the Wildlife Conservation Society. “Putting clothes on chimpanzees is not as adorable as you may think from the animals’point of view. I guess their idea was to get their viewers to love and protect the animals,”Ms. Xie added, “but we do not agree with this approach for entertainment.”Using famous people to focus public attention on wildlife is a common practice in conservation campaigns. The Chinese basketball legend Yao Ming went to Africa and highlighted the problem of elephant and rhinoceros poaching (偷猎) in the documentary “The End of the Wild”. “But differently, he, as a human observer, kept his distance and was there to see the hard truth of poaching, and that is different from a show created to attract viewers.”Ms Xie said.Critics (评论家)also argue that the show violates (违反) Chinese wildlife protection laws.4. Which one of the following statements is TRUE?A. Many people like the show because of its dangerous activities.B. Xie Yan is against persuading the public to love and protect animals.C. Some think the show is against wildlife protection laws of China.D. The reality show makes no difference to wildlife at all.5. According to Ms Xie, “Wonderful Friends”is basically different from “The End of the Wild”, because ______.A. they both invite different popular stars to show upB. their purposes and ways to approach animals are differentC. they shoot (拍摄) different numbers and kinds of speciesD. their filming locations are different6. What’s the author’s attitude towards “Wonderful Friends”?A. Worried.B. Uninterested.C. Disappointed.D. Not mentioned.7. The passage would most likely be found ______.B. in a newspaper A. on a notice boardC. in a fashion magazineD. in an ad of wildlife protectionCI cry easily. I cried when a boy in the film suffered from an incurable disease. I cried when an athlete broke a world record.One night my wife and I were going to dinner at a friend's.As we went towards the house, I noticed a car pulling out from the sidewalk. Just ahead, another car was waiting to back into the parking space.But before he could do so a yellow car came up from behind and sneaked into the space.While my wife went ahead into our friend' s house, I stepped into the street.“Hey,”I said,“this parking space belongs to that guy.”I gestured towards the man ahead, who was looking back angrily. At that moment Iwas feeling pretty manly.“Mind your own business!”the driver told me.“No,”I said. “You don' t understand. That fellow was waiting to back into this space.”Things quickly heated up, until finally he jumped out of the car. My God, he wasextremely large. He grabbed me and shook his rock of a fist at me. I tasted blood. I was terrified.Almost in a panic,I ran to my friend's front door.As a former Marine(海军), as a man, I felt absolutely embarrassed as my wife and friends asked me what had happened. All I could say was that I had had an argument about a parking space. They were sensitive and let it go at that.Perhaps half an hour later, the doorbell rang.For some reason I was sure that the huge man had returned for me.My blood ran cold.My hostess got up to answer it, but I stopped her. I knew I had to face up to my fear.I opened the door. There he stood. “I came back to apologize,”he said in a low voice. “I am ashamed of myself. The Brooklyn Navy Yard where I've worked for ten years is closing. Today I got laid off. I' m not myself.I hope you’ll accept my apology.”I remembered that after I closed the door, I stood there for a fewminutes alone with tears in my eyes.8.What did the author do when a yellow car drove into the parking space?A.He blamed the driver.B.He beat the driver.C.He asked the driver to apologize.D.He ran to his friend' s house for help.9. What do we know about the yellow car's driver?A.He was rude and liked fighting.B.He lost his job and felt terrible that dayC.He was famous for his bad temper.D.He tried to get the author's parking space.10. What does the underlined sentence mean?A.I became quite calm.B.I couldn't move with cold.C.I felt extremely frightened.D.I was too angry to say anything.11. What kind of person is the author?A.Direct and serious. B .Humorous and open-minded.C.Honest and ambitious. D .Warm-hearted and understandingDIt’s a common phenomenon that modern people now have difficulty sleeping. Drinking milk is thought to be helpful. A warm drink of milk before bed has long been the best choice for those wanting a good night’s sleep. But now a study has found it really does help people nod off—if it is milked from a cow at night.Researchers have discovered that “night milk”contains more melatonin(褪黑激素), which has been proven to help people feel sleepy and reduce anxiety. The study, by researchers from Seoul, South Korea, involved mice being fed with dried milk powder made from cows milked both during the day and at night. Those given night milk, which contained 10 times the amount of melatonin, were less active and less anxious than those fed with the milk collected during daytime, according to the study published in The Journal of Medicinal Food.Night milk quickened the start of sleep and caused the mice to sleep longer. While the effect of cows’milk harvested at different time has not been tested on humans up to now, taking melatonin drugs has been suggested to those who are struggling to fall asleep at night.Previous studies have also indicated that milk can be excellent for helping sleep because of the calcium content, which helps people to relax. Milk is also sugar-free and additive-free with nutritionists recommending skimmed milk as the best choice before bed as it is the least fattening. The more fat you take in before bedtime, the greater burden you will put on your body at night. 12.According to the text, the mice fed with daytime milk_________.A. started sleep more easilyB. were less activeC. were more anxiousD. sleep longer13.Which of the following is true of melatonin according to the text?A. It’s used in sleeping drugsB. It’s been tested on mice for ten timesC. It can make people more energeticD. It exists in milk in great amount 14.What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Milk and MelatoninB. Night Milk and SleepC. Little Fat in MilkD. Milk Drinking and Health 15.How does the author support the theme of the text?A. By giving examplesB. By stating argumentsC. By explaining statistical dataD. By providing research results第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

She wasn’t aware that the place is vegan and was looking for some meat. My wife and I talked up the place and invited her over to try some of our tofu. Debra tried it, nodded and went out.After a few minutes, she and her mother both walked back in. We were having the rest of our meal at that time, so we told her what we had ordered. Debra then asked the waitress to just repeat our order for them. Next, Debra said, "And we want to pay for their meal", pointing to my wife and me. We tried to say no, but Debra wouldn’t listen.That was not the end of it. Hugs were in order. Debra came over to our table and my wife got up to hug her. Debra hugged my wife and put $100 into her hand. My wife firmly said NO, but Debra insisted. Debra kept talking about our kindness, and we did the same about hers and her mother’s. With tears in the eyes, the workers were blown away by this whole exchange between four strangers.I left the waiters a tip that would cover all of our meals and we were on our way.I’ve been witnessing so much kindness, especially over the last few years, as I began to pay more attention. We now have a new favorite restaurant and every time we go there my plan is to pay for someone else’s meal.4.Why did Debra go out after trying some tofu?A.To bring her mother in.B. To look after her mother.C. To get away from the food.D. To look for another restaurant.5. What did Debra insist on?A. Hugging the author’s wife.B. Ordering a meal for the author.C.

What can we know about the author and Debra?A. They’ve been friends.B. They were both vegans.C. They met for the first time.D. They once worked together.CDogs are our best friends. That’s especially true after a disaster, such as an earthquake. When buildings fall down, search and rescue dogs help find trapped people. Dogs’amazing noses can pick up the smell of survivors. Now scientists have developed an electronic tool that does the same thing. It’s taking smell detection(探测) to a whole new level.The new invention is a sort of electronic nose, which can detect extremely low levels of many compounds(化合物) from people’s skin. This isn’t the first time engineers have developed such an object. Earlier models, however, have been bulky and expensive. They could not detect low levels of target compounds either. The new one is inexpensive and small enough to fit inside hand-held equipment.The electronic nose can detect extremely slight smell of more than one compound at the same time. "Being able to do this, in such a small object, is the significant discovery," says Sotiris E. Pratsinis, Professor of Process Engineering&Materials Science at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich. His team tested it in special spaces. They were like the small spaces where people might be trapped. Chemicals given off by the volunteers built up inside. The electronic equipment detected those compounds at unbelievably low levels.The results were good news for the research team. But they may be not for our four-legged friends, who could soon be out of a job. "Ideally, this technology could replace search and rescue dogs," Pratsinis says.Stephen Taylor, an electrical engineer, agrees that the new technology has some benefits over dogs. Still, he thinks it may be too soon to have our trusty friends retire. He suspects, "I foresee that such an object could add to the fine work done by the dogs." Taylor also pointed out some potential limitations of the new invention. "E-noses are useful, but can be very likely to be affected by unstable readings and interruption," he says.8.Why does the author talk about dogs at the beginning?A.To catch the readers’ attention.B.To introduce the topic about e-noses.C.To show what search and rescue dogs do.D.To add background information for discussion.9.

How e-noses are made.C. What differences between dogs and e-noses are.D. How powerful e-noses are.11. What does Stephen Taylor mean?A. Dogs and e-noses could work together.B. Search and rescue dogs will retire soon.C. E-noses are more reliable than noses of dogs.D. Dogs are better at finding out trapped people.DTo be sure, only children experienced some things differently from those with sisters and brothers. Many feel more pressure to succeed. They also tend to look only to their parents as role models in the absence of brothers and sisters.In India, 10-year-old Saviraj Sankpal founded a support group for the tiny minority(少数) of only children. Among other things, the group does volunteer work to fight against the false idea that they are not responsible. "People think we’re treated too kindly and ruined," says Sankpal, a computer engineering student. "But I'd like to remind them how lonely it can get."Most only children, however, say they wish for sisters or brothers only when it comes to caring for aging, unhealthy parents. Britain's David Emerson, co-author of the book The Only Child, says that such a person has to make all the decisions alone. Emerson knows from experience. After his father died, he chose to move his elderly mother from their family home, where she was vulnerable (易受攻击的) to house breakers, to a new one with more safety. "The move was quite hard on her, and she might feel that I pushed her into it, "he says, "After all, I am left with that responsibility."In the future, more and more only children will probably face similar choices. With working mothers increasing, many families are finding they simply don't have the time, money or energy to have more than one child. As only children become common, perhaps the world will realize that the charge made against them is unfair.12.The author’s attitude towards only children is .A.CriticalB. ObjectiveC. HostileD. Unjust13. It can be inferred from the passage that only children's parents should ___________.A. found a support group for their only childrenB. do volunteer work to help their only childrenC. let their only children make all the decisions aloneD. set good examples for their only children14. Emerson decided to move his elderly mother to a new house because he ___________.A. is the only one who cares about herB. doesn't want to leave her aloneC. wants to share the responsibility with herD. is worried about her safety15. The main idea of the passage is that ________.A. only children are ruined and irresponsibleB. only children have to face many challengesC. most only children want to have brothers and sistersD. most only children share their responsibility with their parents第二节(共5小题;每小题2分, 满分10分)根据短文内容从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
