Sadly, the dog can't speak, but it can communicate basic commands by pressing buttons of a soundboard( 发生板). Stella's owner Christina started using the technology when the dog was just eight weeks old. Now Stella is 18 months old and can say 29 words.“The way she uses words to communicate and the words she's combining are really similar to a 2-year-old child. Unsurprisingly, the dog's favorite word is"walk' fallowed closely by ‘beach’”, Christina said.Stella's progress was updated online. “Today when she heard some noises outside and wanted to investigate, I told her we were staying inside,” said Christina. “Stella responded by saying, ‘Look’ 9 times in a row, and then ‘Come outside’. She was clearly in a more frantic （发狂似的）state, and her language use matched that. And I'm impressed that Stella is communicating with language during her more heightened state, not just when she’s calm and in a quiet space. This shows that words are becoming more automatic for her to use.Stella surprised Christina when Stella was standing by the door and whimpering（呜咽）one day. After a bit of pacing back and forth. the dog went over to the soundboard and said “Want”, “Jake” and “Come”, saying that she wanted Christina’ s husband Jake to come home. In about 15 minutes, Jake walked through the door and Stella said the word “Happy”. Christina hopes to expand Stella’ s vocabulary in the future to see just how many phrases the dog can master.24. What do we know about the soundboard?A. It includes 29 buttons. B. It is Stella’ s favorite toy.C. It is invented by Christina. D. it is used to help Stella talk.25. Which of the following is probably Stella’ s favorite activity?A. Taking a walk. B. Going to the beach.C. Talking with kids. D. Looking after babies.26. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?A. Stella disliked staying at home.B. Stella and Christina had a quarrelC. Stella' s language skills were improved.D. Stella made noises to draw people’s attention.27. Why was Stella in a bad mood according to the last paragraph?A. Her soundboard was broken. B. She was punished by Christina.C. Her owner didn’t play with her. D. She failed to see Jake that day.CIn the 19th century, one of America's greatest writers, Walt Whitman, helped people learn to value poetry. Whitman created a new kind of poetry.Walt Whitman was born in 1819 in New York City. During his long life, he watched America grow from a young nation to the strongest industrial power in the world. As a young man, Whitman worked as a school teacher, a printer and a newspaper reporter. He was 36 years old when he published his first book of poetry in1855. He called it Leaves of Grass. It has only 12 poems. The poems are written in free verse. The lines do not follow any set form. Some lines are short. Some are long. The words at the end of each line do not have a similar sound. They do not rhyme.One of America's greatest thinkers and writers immediately recognized the importance of Leaves of Grass. Ralph Waldo Emerson praised Whitman’ s works. But most other poets and writers said nothing and even denounced it. Most readers also rejected Whitman’ s poems. The new form of his poetry surprised many people. Even his own brother told Whitman that he should stop writing poetry. But Whitman had many things to say. And he continued to say them. Readers began to understand that America had a great new poetic voice.Walt Whitman’ s poems praise the United States and its democracy. The poet expressed his love for America and its people in many ways. Experts today praise Leaves of Grass as a major literary work. In 1873, Walt Whitman suffered a stroke. He spent the last years of his life in Camden, New Jersey. Whitman was poor and weak during the last years of his life. He died in 1892. Some critics say Walt Whitman was a spokesman for democracy. Others say he was not a spokesman for anything. Instead, they simply call him a great poet.28. What can we know about Whitman?A. His poems have the same rhyme. B. He is the first great poet in the USA.C. He helped people to create new poems. D. His poems show his love for his country.29. Why was Leaves of Grass refused at first?A. The poems are quite short. B. The form of poetry is special.C. Whitman wasn’ t famous then. D. There are only 12 poems in it.30. What does the underlined word “denounced” in paragraph 3 most probably mean?A. Accused B. Downloaded C. Published D. Translated.31. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Walt Whitman---a great soldier B. Walt Whitman---an unfortunate poetC. Walt Whitman and Leaves of Grass D. The first and greatest poet in AmericaDResearchers recently discovered some unusual behavior in chimps living in the forests of West Africa. An adult male in the wild would pick up a rock, throw it at a tree while yelling and then run away. Although researchers aren't certain why, they make a guess: The chimps seem to prefer trees that create longer-lasting sounds when struck.A team of researchers from Germany first discovered this behavior three years ago. Because the actions appeared to be localized, the researchers suggested the purpose was a local tradition and was likely part of some sort of ritual(仪式), Phys. org reports. But they weren't sure what purpose the ritual served.So the group desired to carry out more experiments to determine why the chimps were so interested in throwing rocks at trees. This time around, they went to the same areas but set up microphones to capture(捕捉) the sounds of the stones as they were thrown. Researchers analyzed all the recordings and found that the chimps tended to prefer throwing rocks at trees that made lower, longer-lasting sounds. Often these were trees that had exposed roots.In their findings, published in Biology Letters, the researchers write that “low-frequency sounds travel further in the environment and are better suited for long-distance communication”.If chimps tried to communicate. it would be more effective for them to strike the trees or choose the ones that made the loudest noises when struck. Because the researchers saw chimps stick to the same trees and never choose new ones, the location could be a factor. Researcher Ammie Kalan tells Science that maybe the locations of the trees have something to do with nearby resources like food and water, and that the sound is a signal to others where to find them.32. How did the researchers feel about the chimps behavior from the first two paragraphs?A. Doubtful B. Excited C. Disappointed D. Frightened.33. What did the researchers do during their experiments?A. They tried to make long-lasting sounds.B. They recorded the sounds from the stricken（受...侵袭的） trees.C. They designed various sounds for the chimps.D. They collected different sounds of the chimps.34. What does Ammie Kalan think of the chimps' behavior?A. It is a good way of seeking food. B. It is a means of communication.C. It is a natural response to food. D. It is a symbol of their growth.35. What is the text mainly about?A. How the chimps produce sounds.B. The chimps’ habit of throwing rocks.C. Why the chimps like to throw rocks at trees.D. Chimps often throw rocks at different kinds of trees.第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，共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。选项中有两项为多余选项。When we think about the dreams we have. it is surprising to see how many people failed even if they could have succeeded.
