21、Reading a dog’s body language requires experience and expert guidance. Zazie Todd, a dog trainer and founder of the blog Companion Animal Psychology, weighs in on how to explain dog’ behaviour.

If your dog licks its mouth...

They’re stressed. Recently, two European studies have highlighted the meaning of this licking. One found that it was a dog response to seeing an angry human face on a computer screen, the other determined that dogs lick their mouths—and also look away—in response to a mild threat. If you spot this sign, try reducing your dog’s stress levels.

If there are fireworks and your dog is shaking…

The noises are frightening. This is a common reaction, but a surprising number of people don’t realize that shaking and trembling are signs of fear. Whereas only a quarter of owners say their dog is afraid of loud noises, half report these behavioral signs, according to research published in Applied Animal Behaviour Science. If you think your pup would be comforted, pet them and remain nearby.

If you’re at the vet and your dog’s tail is down…

They’re anxious. Obvious signs of an unhappy dog include hiding or trying to leave the exam room, but commonly missed signs range from a tucked tail and lowered ears to trembling. If your dog gets bored at appointments, many vets now use food to make the experience more fun.

If your dog leans into you during a petting session…

They like it! If you’re unsure that a dog is enjoying being petted, stop, then judge their reaction. This is called an approval test. If they choose to wander off, the session is over. Other signs of discomfort include sniffing the floor, looking away and panting(喘息). However, if they lean on you or paw at you to get more permission, continue!

【1】According to Zazie’s view, we can understand a dog’s feeling by ______.

A．its pose

B．its eye contact

C．its communication

D．its behavioral signs

【2】What behaviour does your dog have when it feels pressure?

A．It leans on you.

B．It licks its mouth.

C．It is shaking.

D．Its tail is down.

【3】What can we learn from the text?

A．When dogs pant, they like you very much.

B．Half of owners say their dog is afraid of loud noises.

C．When dogs lean on you or paw at you, they try to get more approval.

D．Hiding or trying to leave the exam room means that dogs feel excited.

22、One afternoon last week, I saw three tearful children from my son’s school being comforted by teachers. That morning, my 11-year-old had stomach pains, retching(干呕)into a bowl. Talking to other mothers later, I heard about other children with stomachache or difficulty sleeping the night before.

What caused so much pain? Sports day. Sports day might be necessary at a highly-competitive independent school, but not at a village primary school. For the children who can fly like the wind, sports day causes no problem. For those who are overweight or just not good at sport, it is a nightmare(噩梦). Even for those who enjoy running but fall halfway down the track in front of the entire school and their parents, it can prove a disaster.

Why do we put our children through this annual suffering? Some may say competition is character building; or it’s taking part, not winning, that’s important; or that it is a tradition of school life. I just felt great pity for those children in tears or in pain.

Team games at the end of sports day produced some close races, wild enthusiasm, lots of shouting—and were fun to watch. More importantly, the children who were not so fast or quick at passing the ball were hidden a little from everyone’s eyes. Some of them also had the thrill of being on the winning side.

I wish that sports day could be abandoned and replaced with some other less-competitive event. Perhaps an afternoon of team games, with a few races for those who want them, would be less stressful for the children and a lot more fun to watch.

【1】What can we learn about the author’s son from Paragraph 1?

A. He talked with some mothers.

B. He comforted his classmates.

C. He had difficulty in sleeping.

D. He suffered from stomachache.

【2】Sports day is still an annual event in this school probably because .

A. this is an independent school

B. it is a tradition of the school

C. it helps children lose weight

D. children enjoy watching sports

【3】What does the author think about team games?

A. They should include more stressful races.

B. They are acceptable to different children.

C. They should be abandoned at primary schools.

D. They are less fun for those who love running.

【4】What is the author’s attitude towards sports day?

A. Critical. B. Neutral.   C. Positive. D. Ambiguous.

23、Simple Steps to Manage Your Money

Your money and how you manage it are some of the-most important things in your life. They influence almost everything you do. 【1】 Here are some steps you can take.

【2】 The first thing you need to do is know where your money is going. See what you are actually spending your money on. There will likely be a few surprises when you see the results of your tracking. You are probably spending more in the areas than you think.

Set up a budget. 【3】 To manage your money properly and get ahead without money troubles, you need to spend less than you earn. You also need to record your sources of income and when you receive them. Then, you are able to determine how much of your income is spent on bills and necessities. Plan how you will spend or save any remaining funds.

Keep your budget on track. After tracking your spending for a month, you may see some areas where you can cut your spending. 【4】

Remember to save some money for unexpected expenses. Now that you know where your money is going and you’re spending less, you can start saving. To get ahead, you need to put aside a percentage of your money. An easy way to start saving is to put a part of your paycheck into a fund. 【5】 Once you get used to it, you may increase it to 20 percent or more.

Once you start managing your money, you will find out that it makes other parts of your life easier as well.

A．Start tracking your spending.

B．Keep an eye on your pocket money.

C．If possible, work out a spending plan.

D．It’s never too late to save even a small amount of money.

E．Also you’d better review your budget every few months.

F．10 percent of your income is a good amount to start with.

G．Therefore, it is very important to manage your money properly.

24、   “The failure to play is now a serious issue and it calls for action for change,” says Sir Ken Robinson, a leading expert in education, creativity and human development. This is the driving force behind Outdoor Classroom Day - a global teacher­led campaign, supported by Dirt is Good, a company producing daily chemical products.

Outdoor Classroom Day, taking place on 17th May and 1st November this year, will see schools around the world swap the inside for the outside and take learning into the playground and beyond to make playtime a key part of the school day. This might involve using natural objects like stones to do sums, or going on an insect hunt to encourage curiosity. By now, Outdoor Classroom Day has grown from a grassroots movement to a global campaign that is expected to benefit five million children and over 40,000 schools from all around the world in 2018.

This is helping to change the trend that sees many schools selling up or building on their playgrounds and cutting back on playtime to make more room for academic studies, while at home children’s lives are increasingly filled with organized activities intended to help them learn. Today globally 61% of parents surveyed in the Dirt is Good Qualitative Study said that children don’t know how to play without using technology.

Outdoor Classroom Day is making playing time happen, with 22% of participating schools having increased their playtime since joining the campaign. 93% of teachers surveyed saw improvements in children’s creativity after playing outside, and 97% believe that time outdoors is necessary for children to reach their full potential.

Scientific studies show that real play - the active, physical, self­directed play - is essential for children to develop key life skills that are not taught elsewhere. Few would question the value of developing creativity, leadership, resourcefulness, and curiosity.

【1】What do children do on Outdoor Classroom Day?

A.Have a day off and go playing anywhere.

B.Have P. E.classes on the playgrounds.

C.Learn and play by using natural things outside.

D.Play on their own without the teachers’ guidance.

【2】Why do children spend less time outdoors?

A.Technology helps children learn better at home.

B.Parents prefer to home school their children.

C.Schools stop providing playgrounds.

D.Adults ignore the importance of playtime.

【3】What’s the author’s purpose in writing this passage？

A.To introduce. B.To persuade.

C.To entertain. D.To advertise.

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Last March, Margarito drove to visit his mother who lived in the countryside. When he set off for home, Margarito’s mother looked at the dark sky and noticed the sign of a coming storm. Worried about her son’s safety, she told him to drive as carefully as possible on his way home and he promised to give her a call upon his arrival.

With his mother’s words in mind, Margarito approached the main road carefully. Soon, it started to rain heavily. Eager to get home, Margarito began to drive faster. Two hours later, he came to a bumpy mountain road that had been flooded by a creek (小溪). Margarito, driving a four-wheel drive truck, figured that he would be OK. At that moment, he didn’t realize that such a thought would be a big mistake.

It was halfway across the creek that an unfortunate incident took place: The rushing waters grabbed hold of his vehicle, pushing it off the road and sending it down a rocky creek bed. The truck finally stopped some 80 feet away. Margarito’s problems only grew from there as the water had somehow positioned the truck into the creek bank at a 45-degree angle, making it difficult for him to open the driver’s side door. Injured and trapped inside with the muddy water rising quickly, Margarito was certain he was going to die. Shaking with fear, he was at a loss about what to do.

On the road right behind Margarito were a delivery worker named Steve and his nephew Mike, who were on the way to deliver furniture to customers in the countryside. They witnessed the horrible incident, and when Margarito’s truck came to rest in the middle of the overflowing creek, Steve quickly began to take action. First, he grabbed a rope from the back of his vehicle and used it to ensure he could safely approach the truck.

注意：

1. 续写词数应为150左右；

2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

Next, he turned to Mike and yelled, “Give me a rock!”

Margarito was about to thank Steve and Mike when the mobile phone in his jacket pocket rang.
