Sometimes I saw her sitting at the gate. Sometimes I saw her hiding under my car. Sometimes she even sneaked（潜行） under my house. Each time I walked close to her, however, she ran away. Finally, I gave up and decided to give her some independence. Recently, though, something strange happened. This independent stray cat decided to adopt（接纳） my daughter, Beth. Each time Beth walks over to my house from her place up the road, she is welcomed by the stray cat. The cat walks between her legs, purrs and meows until she gets petted（抚摸）. And Beth always stops and pets the cat gently. The cat begins to follow Beth around more and more. It happened day after day until this morning when Beth left her a bowl of cat food. I guess that ended the cat's straying life because Beth even started calling the cat “Alice”. I don't know if Alice will ever want to become an indoor cat, but she seems to have made Beth her forever friend. Beth always has the kindness and love to draw all kinds of animals to her from dogs, to cats, to birds. Isn't it amazing how love works its way into our hearts and lives? We are minding our own business and suddenly we have a new pet, or a new friend, or find a moment to share in an act of kindness. Let your love pass onto the lives of others, because to love is to truly live and to live is to truly love. 31. How did the cat probably feel when she saw Beth come over? A. Afraid.          B. Happy.          C. Angry.          D. Independent. 32. What is the writer still not sure of? A. That the cat may want to eat the bowl of food.      B. That the cat may like her name “Alice”. C. That the cat will want to be an indoor pet.          D. That the cat may see Beth as a forever friend. 33. What does the writer want to tell us? A. Stay away from any stray animal.           B. Share kindness and pass love on. C. Always be ready to help stray cats.          D. Take care of your own business. （B）Bi Sheng was born in Song Dynasty. He lived in a small village which lies in Huanggang today He invented the printing around 600 AD（公元）. He was the world's first inventor of the printing. It is about 400 years earlier than the printing in Germany. The printing is also called the movable type printing（活字印刷）. But how did it work in the past? First of all, the clay was made into movable types. Then words were engraved（雕刻） carefully onto the types. After that the words were chosen and put in right order in a box according to the text. Next, the workers brushed ink onto the movable types. Finally the types could be used for printing They could be used again and again for different books. The movable type printing plays an important role in Chinese culture. With the help of it, Chinese culture spread around the world more quickly. At the same time, the movable type printing was widely used in the world at that time. As a result, more and more culture communication among countries took place.

In fact, most smart people share the same traits（特征）. These traits include understanding how much they don't know, high self-control and being very funny. You might think these have nothing to do with intelligence. But in fact, there is some scientific evidence（证据） to show that they are closely connected to intelligence. Knowing how much you don't know. Smart people are better able to admit（承认） when they don't know something, according to a study in 2020. The study found that the less intelligent you are, the more you overestimate yourself. In one experiment, for example, researchers asked students to estimate their scores after taking a test. The students with lower scores overestimated their scores. They thought they had done better. Meanwhile, those with higher scores underestimated how many questions they'd gotten right. High self-control. Scientists have found a connection between self-control and intelligence. In another study, participants （参加者） had to choose between two prizes. They could either get a smaller amount of money at once or a larger amount of money two days later. Only one fourth of the participants chose to get the larger amount of money at a later date. The results showed that these people scored（得分）higher on intelligence tests. Being really funny. Do smart people have a better sense of humor? Scientists at a university in Holland may think so. One of their studies invited people to write cartoon captions（解说词）. And they found that the funnier cartoon captions people wrote, the higher scores they would had on intelligence tests.
