I intended to turn off the big light and could just use my mini booklight to read.“Wait!” said Indi.“I can’t fall asleep with any light on and without listening to The Adventure of Jeremy Owl.”“I don't want to listen to anything,”I said.“I want to read.”“I promise you'll change your mind when you hearit. Jeremy has an upside-down party, and you'll never guess what happens." Indi presssed the play button on her CD player.I had no way but to tolerate（忍受）it. That night， between the fan， Jeremy Owl's upside-down-aelventres--and-Ineli-s-surprisirgly-loudsnoring（鼾声）， I had an extremely hard time concentrating on my book-and an even harder time falling asleep.Sharing a room doesn't get any easier duringthe day. My things kept getting mixed up, covered and lost.That night, we had a family meeting to comeup with some solutions.“How about we just move to a big house with lots of bedrooms?”mylittle brother, Tex, suggested.“It could have a swimming pool and a basketball court,”“If we had a few million dollars lying around, that would be a fantastic idea,” said my dad。laughing.But how could we solve our problem?

Which is more environmentally friendly—real or man-made? The simple answer is: it depends.Real trees that still have their roots have little carbon footprint（碳足迹）. They can be planted,brought inside for the Christmas period and then replanted.But things are more complex for other trees.Britain's Carbon Trust estimate（估计）that atwo-meter tall tree that doesn't have roots has a carbon footprint of between 3.5 kg CO2e and16 kg CO2e depending on whether it is burnt—which is less polluting——or finds its way to a landfill（垃圾填埋场）.“Unfortunately，we still see a lot of trees going into landfill,” says Sophie Neuberg,a member of Friends of the Earth.“And that's very bad for the environment because thney break down very slowly and create methane which is a greenhouse gas.”The picture for plastic trees isn't so encouraging. The Carbon Trust estimate a carbon footprint of around 40 kg CO2e for a two-meter tree, but its beauty is that it can be reused.“It’s a good idea to get a good quality one that you can use for many years. Someone I know has had their plastic tree for 20 years,”Neuberg says.This tendency toward reuse of plastic treess is supported by research published by the American Christmas Tree Association(ACTA) who estimate that 85% of US families with a man-made tree will reuse it and that on average man-made trees are reused for ll years.Jami Warner,director of ACTA repeats Neuberg's advice.“Quality man-made trees are very easy to break down and very easy to store,”Wrner says.“If you take good care of it you can use it season after season or you can donate it to a good organisation.”However,if you want a truly green Christnnas, you can simply replace the tree with the plants already in your house and decorate them for Christmas. 28. Why do people tend to buy man-made Christmas trees now?A. They think it costs less. B. They find it more convenient. C. They consider it more decorative.D. They believe it is more eco-friendly.29. What isthe worst way to deal with a used real tree?A. Burning it.    B. Reusing it.     C. Throwing it.     D.Replanting it.30. Which of the following may Jami Warner agree with?A. Buying a good quality plastic tree.B. Planting a tree in a pot and reusing it. C. Using plants to replace Christmas trees. D. Ignoring the tradition and canceling the tree. 31. In which section of a website can you find the text?A. Business.B. Education.C.Health.D. Environment.DDogs can smell the difference between odors（气味）from humans when they're stressed and when they're calm, according to a study published Wednesdey.Researchers first collected breath and sweat samples（样本）from study participants（参与者）to use as a baseline. Afterward, these people performed a task, counting backward from 9,000 in units of 17 in front of two researchers for three minutes.“If the participant gave a correct answer, they were given no feedback and were expected to continue, and if they gave an incorrect answer the researcher would stop them with‘no' and tell them their last correct answer," said lead study author Clara Wilson.The study team collected another round ofbreath and sweat samples after the task was completed. Additionally,the researchers collected reported stress levels, heart rate and blood pressure before and after the task. Thirty-six palticipants who reported feeling stressed and had increased heart rate and blood pressure had their samples shown to the dogs.The researchers presented post-task breath alnd sweat samples from one person to 20 dogs along with two other blank control samples. The dogs needed to choose the correct sample at least seven out of 10 times to move onto the next stage.In the second and final stage,the study team showed the four dogs that passed stage one the same samples they smelt in stage one along with a sample from the same individual collected before the task and a blank.    The dogs chose the right sample in 93.8% of the tests, which suggested that the stress odors were quite different. “It was fascinating to see how able the dogs were at discriminating between these odors when the only difference was that a mental stress response had occurred,”she said.More experimentation needs to be done outsideof a lab to see how applicable the results of this study are in the real world, Wilson said. These findings also open the door to future research to study if dogs can recognize different emotionss, plus how long the dogs are sensible to the Qdors,she said.32. Why are participants asked to count numbers?A.To build up their hearts.        B.To stress them out mentally. C.To exercise their breathing.     D.To test their academic performance. 33. Which of the following can best explain the ulnderlined word "discriminating" in paragraph 6?A. Telling apart.     B. Testing out.    C. Drying out.    D. Cleaning up.34. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about regarding the studyA. Expectations for the future research. B. Supporting evidence for the research results. C. A further explanation of the research methods. D. A reasonable doubt about the research process. 35. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Dogs Can Sense People’s Fear B. Researchers Found Dogs Can Count C. Dogs Can Smell When Humans Are Stressed D. New Evidence of Dog Intelligence Was Found第二节 （共5小题每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多分选项。A new tendency to misplace things can indicate you need to see a doctor. More than half of patients who begin experiencing memory problems can be effectively treated.  36 . 37 . One way to be more mindful of where your things are is to put into words where you put them,says Mareen Dennis，an assistant professor of psychiatry（精神病学）at the University of Kentucky College of Medicine. And saying that, either in your mind or out loud, focuses your attention on where you put it, so you'll remember its spot later.Take pictures. Ever walk around the parking lot because you can't find your car? 38 ,suggests Susan Whitbourne, a professor of brain sciences at the University of Massachusetts,Amherst. The same advice applies to lots of thirngs: photograph all those spots where you store easy-to-lose things, and when you can't find them, pull up the photo.Make your personal things stand out. Dennisrecommends finding a color that you love and using key rings and phone cases of that color, ''so that, when you're searching, you're always looking for your favorite color.” 39 .Set up a routine（常规）.__40__.That might wean placing a basket by your front door where you drop your keys and wallet immediately upon entering your home， or designating（指定）one container as the scissors' container. Then, at the end of the day,“look through the areas where you've been, find the items that need to be takeen back home, and return them to their spots,”Dennis says.A Take a picture of your parking spotB. You can read aloud to strengthen your memory C. When you put something down, say its spotD. So you won't get stuck while looking for your car againE.Dennis teaches her patients to make a“home for everything”F.

Donna was away attending a conference,so I had the rest of the week to work on the house and figure out whatto get her as a Christmas gift before she got back.My house companion（伴侣）while Donna was away was her cat， Princess. I was keeping Princess indoors in our new home until she became familiar with the place and then planned to slowly introduce her to the great outdoors.However,one day as I was bringing in somegroceries,to my shock and horror I suddenly found she was gone. Donna would be back in afew days and it would ruin Christmas for both of us if Princess was not back by then,safe and sound. Donna had already excitedly told me over the phone that she had found several fun toys and delicious snacks for Princess as Christmas gifts. She couldn't wait to get back and wrap them up.I was in big trouble. I had to find Princeess—and fast. So,I made a poster with her description and a hurried sketch（素描）of the cat that I personally drew because I couldn't find a photo of her anywhere.I was sure my wife had hundreds on her phone,but I didn't dare ask her for one. I didn't want her to know that her precious cat had escaped.Donna's happy daily calls continued,as didmy daily searches for Princess.
