At last, the tra

18、ffic was moving. She swung quickly racing to her house. As she opened the door, she nearly fell over Sheba. “Hey, Sheba,” she said, “Ive got no time for you now, but Ill take you out as soon as I get back from tennis club.” Then she noticed Sheba seemed to be coughing or choking obviously, she could

19、 hardly breathe. Immediately, Joanne realized she would have to take her to the vet (兽医). When she got there, the vet was just about to close for the day. Seeing the state of Sheba, Dr. Sterne brought her quickly into his office. “Listen, doctor, Im really in a rush to get to a meeting, can I leave

20、her with you, and go to get changed? Ill be back in ten minutes to pick her up, and then Ill take her on to the meeting with me. Is that OK?” “Sure.” said the doctor. Joanne made the quick trip back to her house in a couple of minutes. As she was once more entering the hallway, the phone by the door

21、 began to ring. “This is Dr. Sterne,” said an anxious voice. “I want you to get out of that house immediately,” said the doctors voice. “Im coming round right away, and the police will be there any time now. Wait outside!” At that moment, a police car screeched to a stop outside the house. Two polic

22、emen got out and ran into the house. Joanne was by now completely confused and very frightened. Then the doctor arrived. “Wheres Sheba? Is she OK?” shouted Joanne. “Shes fine, Joanne. I took out the thing which was choking her, and shes OK now.” Just then, the two policemen reappeared from the house

23、, half-carrying a white-faced man, who could hardly walk. There was blood all over him. “My God, ”said Joanne, “how did he get in there? And how did you know he was there?” “I think he must be a burglar.” said the doctor. “I knew he was there because when I finally removed what was stuck in Shebas t

24、hroat, it turned out to be three human fingers.”41. What was Joanne supposed to do at 6: 30？ A. To walk her dog. B. To see her doctor. C. To attend a club meeting. D.

27、 out of his leg. Jack was getting a tattoo. His friend Tony had recently gotten a tattoo, and Jack was so impressed by it that he decidedto get one too. Peer pressure, media influence, and personal expression are some of the common reasons for wearing tattoos today. w.w.w.k.&s.5*u.c.#omThe desire to

28、 be accepted by ones friends or peers can have a great influence on what a person does. Sometimes, wearing a tattoo can be a sign that you belong to a certain group. Gangs often use special clothes and tattoos to identify their particular group. Some of these groups wear only brandname clothes. Othe

29、rs wear tattoos. When a persons friends are all doing something, that person is more likely to do the same thing. The media is another big influence behind the popularity of tattoos in North America. A wide variety of media images (人物，图像) show tattoospeople appearing in commercials selling expensive

30、 cars, famous sports heroes with tattoos in magazines, fashion models wearing designer clothes that show their bodies tattooed with detailed and colorful patterns. These media images link tattoos to ideas of wealth, success, and status. As a result, many people decide to get a tattoo for its fashion

31、 and status value.Many people decide to wear tattoos in order to express their artistic nature, their beliefs, or their feelingsin other words, to show their individuality (个性). A musician in a rock band may get a tattoo of a guitar on the arm. Some environmentalists may tattoo pictures of endangere

32、d animals on their shoulders. A tattoo can be a public sign to show what is important in a persons life.As you can see, there are many reasons why young North Americans get tattoos. A tattoo can be part of a groups uniform, a sign of fashion or an expression of individuality. The decision to get a t

33、attoo is most often a result of the influence of friends or media or the desire to express oneself. For Jack, it was a mixture of all three. w.w.w.k.&s.5*u.c.#om45.

CP: Central Point P: Point Sp: Sub point (次要点) C: Conclusion C A gadget (器具w.w.w.k.&s.5*u.c.#om) which makes water out of air could become the greatest household invention since the

36、microwave.Using the same technology as a dehumidifier (除湿器), the Water Mill is able to create a ready supply of drinking water because it can always get it from an unlimited sourcethe air. The company behind the machine says not only does it offer an alternative to bottled water in developed countri

37、es, but it is a solution for the millions who face a daily water shortage. The machine works by drawing in wet air through a filter (过滤器) and over a cooling instrument which changes it into water drops. It can produce up to 12 liters a day. The Water Mill will also produce more water when storms pas

38、s over, as the amount of water which is contained in the air increases. In keeping with its eco-development, the machine uses the same amount of electricity as three lights.Inventor Jonathan Ritchey said: “The demand for water is off the chart. So people are looking for freedom from water distributi

39、on systems that are shaky and unreliable.”The machine, which is about 3 feet wide, is likely to cost 800 when it goes on sale here in the spring. Its maker, Canadian Firm Element Four, roughly (粗略地) calculates that a litre of water cost around 20p to produce.Environmentalists state that half the wor

40、lds population will face water shortage because of climate change by 2080. One in five is said to lack access to safe drinking.The Water Mill is not effective in areas where the amount of water contained in the air is below about 30 percent, but in Britain that wont be much of a problem.49.

51、ities D. four activities E Advice to “sleep on it” could be well founded, scientists say. After a good nights sleep, a problem, which couldnt be solved the night before, can often seem more manageable, although the evidence until now has been anecdotal (个人体验的w.w.w.k.&s.5*u.c.#om). But researchers, a

52、t the University of Luebek in Germany, have designed an experiment that shows a good nights sleep can improve insight (顿悟) and problem-solving. “If you have some newly-got memories in your brain, sleep acts on these memories and restructures (重新组织) them, and as a result, after sleep, the insight int

53、o problem which you could not solve before increases,” said Dr Jan Born, a neuroscientist (神经科学家), at the university. To test the theory, they taught volunteers two simple rules to help them turn a string of (一连串) numbers into a new order. There was also a third, hidden rule, which could help them i

54、ncrease their speed in solving the problem. The researchers divided the volunteers into two groups: Half were allowed to sleep after the training, while the rest were forced to stay awake. Dr Jan Born and his team noticed that the group that had slept after the training were twice as likely to figur

55、e out (想出) the third rule as the other group. “Sleep helped,” Born said in a telephone interview. “The important thing is that you have to have a memory representation (描绘，表现) of the problem you want to solve in your brain and then you sleep, so it can act on the problem.” But Born admitted that he

56、and his team dont know how restructuring of memories occurs or what governs it.Pierre Maquet and Perrine Ruby of the University of Liege in Belgium said the experimental evidence supports the anecdotal suggestions that sleep can help develop creative thinking. Although the role of sleep in human cre

57、ativity will still be a mystery, the research gives people good reason to fully respect their periods of sleep, they added. 57. The underlined phrase “sleep on it” in Paragraph 1 probably means _. A. to delay deciding something until the next day B. to get as much sleep as possible C. to go on sleep

58、ing without being disturbed D. to sleep till after the time you usually get up in the morning 58. Jan Born and his team carried out the experiment through _. A. comparison B. interview C. survey D. imagination59. It can be inferred from the passage that _. A. people should sleep so long as they have

59、 time B. sleep is the only way to solve hard problems C. people have various periods of sleep D. people know how sleep reconstructs memories60. What would be the best title for the passage? A. How Sleep Works B. Sleep Helps Solve Problems C. No Evidence, But Well Founded D. Borns Discovery On Sleep
