Well before classes start, students and te
19、achers order Lattes, Cappuccinos and Hot Chocolates. Then, during the first period, teachers call in orders on their room phones, and students make deliveries. By closing time at 9.20 a.m., the shop usually sells 90 drinks. Whoever made the chi tea, Ms. Schatzman says it was good, Christy McKinley,
20、a second year student, announced recently, after hanging up with the teacher. The shop is called the Dixie PIT, which stands for Power in Transition. Although some of the students are not disabled, many are, and the PIT helps them prepare for life after high school. They learn not only how to run a
21、coffee shop but also how to deal with their affairs. They keep a timecard and receive paychecks, which they keep in check registers. Special-education teachers Kim Chevalier and Sue Casey introduced the Dixie PIT from a similar program at Kennesaw Mountain High School in Georgia. Not that it was eas
22、y. Chevaliers first problem to overcome was product-related. Should schools be selling coffee? What about sugar content? Kenton County Food Service Director Ginger Gray helped.

23、 to help. Teachers agreed to give up their lounge (休息室) in the mornings. Art students painted the name of the shop on the wall. Business students designed the paychecks.

26、s at Dixie Heights High School Downs the schools coffee shopC Along the river banks of the Amazon and the Orinoco there lives a bird that swims before it can fly, flies like a fat chicken, eats green leaves, has the stomach of a cow and has claws (爪) on its wings when young. They build their homes a
27、bout 4.6m above the river, an important feature (特征) for the safety of the young. It is called the hoatzin. In appearance, the birds of both sexes look very much alike with brown on the back and cream and red on the underside. The head is small, with a large set of feathers on the top, bright red ey
28、es, and blue skin. Its nearest relatives are the common birds, cuckoos. Its most striking feature, though, is only found in the young. Baby hoatzins have a claw on the leading edge of each wing and another at the end of each wing tip. Using these four claws, together with the beak (喙), they can clim
29、b about in the bushes, looking very much like primitive birds must have done. When the young hoatzins have learned to fly, they lose their claws. During the drier months between December and March hoatzins fly about the forest in groups of 20 to 30 birds, but in April, when the rainy season begins,
30、they collect together in smaller living units of two to seven birds for producing purposes.43What is the text mainly about? AHoatzins in dry and rainy seasons. BThe relatives and enemies of hoatzins. CPrimitive birds and hoatzins of the Amazon. DThe appearance and living habits of hoatzins.44Young h

32、 wings like hoatzins. DThey had a head with long feathers on the top.46Why do hoatzins collect together in smaller groups when the rainy season comes? ATo find more food.

33、ny studies have shown that the company of pets can help lower blood pressure (血压) and raise chances of recovering from a heart attack, reduce loneliness and spread all-round good cheer. Any owner will tall you how much joy a pet brings. For some, an animal provides more comfort than a husband/wife.
34、A 2002 study by Karen Allen of the State University of New York measured stress (紧张) levels and blood pressure in people - half of them pet owners while they performed 5 minutes of mental arithmetic (算术) or held a hand in ice water. Subjects completed the tasks alone, with a husband/wife, a close fr
35、iend or with a pet. People with pets did it best. Those tested with their animal friends had smaller change in blood pressure and returned most quickly to baseline heart rates. With pets in the room, people also made fewer math mistakes than when doing in front of other companions. It seems people f
36、eel more relaxed (放松)around pets, says Allen, who thinks it may be because pets dont judge. A study reported last fall suggests that having a pet dog not only raises your spirits but may also have an effect on your eating habits. Researchers at Northwestern Memorial Hospital spent a year studying 36
37、 fat people and their equally fat dogs on diet-and-exercise programs; a separate group of 56 people without pets were put on a diet program.

40、etter with pets around when facing stressful tasks? AThey have lower blood pressure. BThey become more patient. CThey are less nervous. DThey are in higher spirits.50The research mentioned in the last paragraph reports that Apeople with dogs did more exercise Bdogs lost the same weight as people did
41、 Cdogs liked exercise much more than people did Dpeople without dogs found the program unhelpfulE There were smiling children all the way. Charily they knew at what time the train passed their homes and they made it their business to stand along the railway, wave to complete strangers and cheer them

I looked at the people all around me. They all looked beautiful. When my uncle arrived with a smile, I threw my ar
