We were on our way home from Houston one Saturday morning. We decided to stop at a local gas station to get coffee and something to snack on since it was a good hour and a half before we got home.

When we were done, we got back into our car and before I started it, we noticed a man standing outside in front of the building. He was a homeless man with worn clothes and it looked like he had gone in and gotten himself some coffee or something warm to drink since it was cold this time of the year. He must have not had enough money to get something to eat.

Then a dog walked up to the front of the building. I could tell she was a "she", because you could tell that she had baby dogs. She was terribly in need of something to eat and I felt so bad for her. I knew if she didn't eat soon, she and her baby dogs would not make it.

I and my wife sat there and looked at her. We noticed that people walked by and didn't even pet her, like most people do when they walk by an animal in front of a store. We still did not do anything. But the homeless man, who I thought did not buy himself anything to eat, went back into the store. And what he did brought tears to me and my wife. He had gone into the store and with what money he may have had, bought a can of dog food and fed that dog.

This story plays a great part in our lives. You see, that was Mother's Day weekend. And a lot of people forget that some animals are parents too.

It took a homeless man, to show me what I should have done. He made me a better man that day.

A. he felt cold that day.
B. he was thirsty only.
C. the store only provided drinks.

D. regretted they hadn't done anything.

B. not survive.
C. have to attack people.
D. lose their homes.

7.Which of the following is the most suitable title for this passage?

B. A Lucky Mother Dog.
C. Mother's Day Weekend.
D. A Kind Homeless Man.

C

What picture do you have of the future? Will life in the future be better, worse or the same as now? What do you hope about the future?

Futurologists predict that life will probably be very different in 2050 in all the fields of activity, from entertainment to technology. First of all, it seems that TV channels will have disappeared by 2050. Instead, people will choose a program from a 'menu' and a computer will send the program directly to the television. By 2050, music, films, programs, newspapers and books will come to us by computer.

    In what concerns the environment, water will have become one of our most serious problems. Demand for water will increase ten times between now and 2050 and there could be serious shortages. Some futurologists predict that water could be the cause of war if we don't act now.

In transport, cars will run on new, clean fuels and they will go very fast. Cars will have computers to control the speed of the cars and there won't be any accidents. Today many cars have computers that tell drivers exactly where they are. By 2050, the computer will control the car and drive it to your destination.

In the domain of technology, robots will have replaced people in factories. Many factories already use robots. Big companies prefer robots—they do not ask for pay rises or go on strike, and they work 24 hours a day. By 2050, we will see robots everywhere—in factories, schools, offices, hospitals, shops and homes.

Last but not least, medicine technology will have conquered many diseases. Today scientists have discovered how to control genes. They have already produced clones of animals. By 2050, scientists will be able to produce clones of people and decide how they look, how they behave and how much intelligence they have. Scientists will be able to do these things—but should they?

8. What's the purpose of the first paragraph?           

A. To arouse the interest of the reader.
B. To tell the background of the passage.
C. To introduce the topic of the passage.
D. To describe the pictures of the future.

9. We can know from the passage that?          

A. computers will finally take the place of the media nowadays.
B. robots will completely have replaced people in factories.
C. computers will tell drivers exactly where they are in the future.
D. it is more convenient to choose programs sent by the computer.

10. What's the author's attitude towards the life by 2050?           

A. Excited but pessimistic.
B. Optimistic but worried.
C. Eager but afraid.
D. Confident but cautious.

11. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that?  

A. all diseases will not be conquered by scientists.
B. scientists have known the way to produce genes.
C. scientists have produced clones of people.
D. the clones of animals have a long way to go.

D

"Acting is the least mysterious of all crafts," Marion Brando once said. But for scientists, working out what is going on in an actor's head has always been something of a puzzle.

    Now, researchers have said actors show different patterns of brain activity depending on whether they are in character or not.

    Dr Steven Brown, from McMaster University in Canada, said, "It looks like when you are acting, you are suppressing (压制) yourself; almost like the character is possessing you."

    Brown and colleagues report how 15 actors, mainly theatre students, were trained to take on a Shakespeare role — either Romeo or Juliet — in a theatre workshop. They were then invited into the laboratory, where their brains were scanned in a series of experiments.

    Once inside the MRI scanner, the actors were asked to answer a number of questions, such as would they go to the party? And would they tell their parents that they had fallen in love?

   Each actor was asked to respond to different questions, based on two different premises. In one, they were asked for their own perspective, while in the other, they were asked to respond as though they were either Romeo or Juliet.

    The results revealed that the brain activity differed depending on the situation being tested. The team found that when the actors were in character, they use some third-person knowledge or inferences about their character.

    The team said they also found additional reduction in activity in two regions of the prefrontal cortex (前额皮质) linked to the sense of self, compared with when the actors were responding as themselves.

    However, Philip Davis, a professor at the University of Liverpool, was unimpressed by the research, saying acting is about far more than "pretending" to be someone — it involves embodying the text and language.

12. How did Dr Brown's team conduct their research?           

A. By scanning the brain activity of some actors.
B. By doing a survey with some theatre goers.
C. By interviewing some theatre teachers.
D. By consulting some experienced researchers.

13.What is the finding of Dr Brown's research?           

A. Acting is not as mysterious as people think.
B. Actors' brain activity differs when they are acting.
C. Acting is far more than pretending to be the character.
D. Actors' brain activity is more active when they are in character.

14.How did Philip Davis react to the research?           

A. He supported it.
B. He doubted it.
C. He explained it.
D. He advocated it.

15.What is the text mainly about?           

A. A debate of how the brain functions.
B. A play written by Shakespeare.
C. A research on the brain activity of actors.
D. A report of the cooperation of scientists and actors.

   This week our school held an essay contest whose theme is protecting wild animals. The purpose of this activity is to raise students' awareness of caring for wild animals, especially endangered ones.

    The activity attracted a number of students. A total of 300 articles were received, all of which were submitted through the Internet. There are different styles of essays, including novels, poems, and letters. Some students expressed their great concern for the situation of wild animals, and others put forward a wide variety of measures to protect them.

    The students have come to realize the importance of protecting wild animals through the activity.
