10、ut there was not any meat in the house.Considering that there was no better way. Mrs. Smith took a piece of paper, and wrote the following words on it：“Give my dog half a pound of meat.”Then she gave the paper to her dog and said gently：“Take this to the butcher（* person whose job is selling meat）an
11、d hes going to give you your lunch today.”Holding the piece of paper in its mouth, the dog ran to the butchers. It gave the paper to the butcher. The butcher read it carefully, recognized that it was really the ladys handwriting and soon did it as he was asked to. The dog was very happy, and ate the
12、 meat up at once.At noon, the dog came to the shop again. It gave the butcher a piece of paper again. After reading it, he gave it half a pound of meat once more.The next day, the dog came again exactly at noon. And as usual, it brought a piece of paper in the mouth. This time, the butcher did not t
13、ake a look at paper, and gave the dog its meat, for he had regarded the dog as one of his customers.But, the dog came again at four oclock. And the same thing happened once again. To the butchers more surprise, it came for the third time at six oclock, and brought with it a third piece of paper. The
14、 butcher felt a bit puzzled . He said to himeself,“This is a small dog. Why does Mrs. Smith give it so much meat to eat today？”Looking at the piece of paper, he found that there were not any words on it！26、Mrs. Smith treated her little dog quite .A、cruellyB、fairlyC、kindlyD、friendly27、It seemed that
15、the dog knew well that the paper Mrs. Smith gave it .A、might do it much harmB、could do it much goodC、would help the butcherD、was worth many pounds28、The butcher did not give any meat to the dog .A、before he felt sure that the words were really written by Mrs. SmithB、when he found that the words on t
16、he paper were not clearC、because he had sold out all the meat in his shopD、until he was paid enough by Mrs. Smith29、From its experience, the dog found that .A、only the paper with Mrs. Smiths words in it could bring it meatB、the butcher would give the meat to it whenever he saw itC、Mrs. Smith would p
17、ay for the meat it got from the butcherD、a piece of paper could bring it half a pound of meat30、At the end of the story, youll find that .A、the dog was clever enough to write on the paperB、the dog dared not go to the butchers any moreC、the butcher was told not to give any meat to the dogD、the butche
18、r found himself cheated by the clever animalBCan you believe your eyes? A recent experiment suggests that the answer to that question may depend on your age.Martin Doherty, a psychologist at the University of Stirling in Scotland, led the team of scientists. In this experiment, Doherty and his team
19、tested the perception(观察力) of some people, using pictures of some orange circles. The researchers showed the same pictures to two groups of people. The first group included 151 children aged 4 to 10, and the second group included 24 adults aged 18 to 25.The first group of pictures showed two circles
20、 alone on a white background. One of the circles was larger than the other, and these people were asked to identify the larger one. Four-year-olds identified the correct circle 79 percent of the time. Adults identified the correct circle 95 percent of the time.Next, both groups were shown a picture
21、where the orange circles, again of different sizes, were surrounded by gray circles. Heres where the trick lies in. In some of the pictures, the smaller orange circle was surrounded by even smaller gray circles making the orange circle appear larger than the other orange circle, which was the real l
22、arger one. And the larger orange circle was surrounded by even bigger gray circles so it appeared to be smaller than the real smaller orange circle. When young children aged 4 to 6 looked at these tricky pictures, they werent fooled they were still able to find the bigger circle with roughly the sam
23、e accuracy as before. Older children and adults, on the other hand, did not do as well. Older children often identified the smaller circle as the larger one, and adults got it wrong most of the time. As children get older, Doherty said, their brains may develop the ability to identify visual context
24、. In other words, they will begin to process the whole picture at once: the tricky gray circles, as well as the orange circle in the middle. As a result, theyre more likely to fall for this kind of visual trick.31Doherty and his team of scientists did an experiment to evaluate .Achildrens and adults
25、 eye-sight Bpeoples ability to see accuratelyCchildrens and adults brains Dthe influence of peoples age 32When asked to find the larger circle, .Achildren at 6 got it wrong 79 % of the time with no gray ones aroundBonly adults over 18 got it right 95% of the time with gray ones aroundCchildren at 4
26、got it right about 79 % of the time with gray ones aroundDadults got it right most of the time with gray ones around33According to the passage, we can know that .Aa smaller orange circle appears bigger on a white backgroundBan orange circle appears bigger than a gray one of the same sizeCa circle su
27、rrounded by other circles looks bigger than its real sizeDa circle surrounded by bigger ones looks smaller than its real size34Visual context may work when children get older than .A4B6C10D1835Why are younger children not fooled?ABecause they are smarter than older children and adults.BBecause older
28、 people are influenced by their experience.CBecause peoples eyes become weaker as they grow older.DBecause their brain can hardly notice related things together.CuA year ago August, Dave Fuss lost his job driving a truck for a small company in west Michigan.
