On my non-kid flight, somewhere on board, a baby began to cry. Yes, I thought, as I read my book, traveling without kids was great.My trip was to Ha
19、waii. I was visiting a friend at Maui and running a 15k race. Then we were going to the beach of Oahu for a few days. We ate well and lazed on the beach. I didnt have to tend to anyones needs but my own. But soon it was time to head home, back to responsibility, to where tasks were made harder by cr
20、ies of “Five more minutes, Mom”.After boarding for the last leg home, I noticed a mama flying with a baby. Id been looking forward to sleeping on this final flight. But I found myself helping. Her name was Gabriela and her daughter was Olive, and they were flying to Nashville. Together we put away h
21、er things, and I picked up the dropped toys. As the plane began its descent(下降),Olive woke up. Gabriela talked to her in that sweet way a mama talks to her baby. I watched Olives face light up at her words, and I smiled in recognition. Id seen that look on my kids faces. That expression of absolute
22、adoration and trust. Shed helped me remember what I love about being a mom.

Mother love is the greatest thing in the world.C. When you look in the mirror, you see yourself. That puts you in the company of animals lik
26、e dolphins, elephants and chimpanzees(黑猩猩). The mirror test is often used as a way of measuring whether animals have self-awareness. And an animal that is aware of itself has a high level of intelligence. Now, a species of fishthe cleaner wrassehas also spotted its reflection. Alex Jordan, a biologi
27、st at the Max Planck Institute in Germany, is one of the researchers of the study on cleaner wrasse consciousness. He and his team conducted many tests that show the fish does seem to recognize its reflectionwhen the researchers added a colored mark to its body, the fish would even try to remove the
28、 mark upon catching sight of it in the mirror. It seems to indicate the clever fish species has some sense of self or individuality. But Jordan said, “Im the last to say that the cleaner wrasse fish is as smart as chimpanzees.” Instead, he believes that the measure scientists have used for nearly 50
29、 years is imperfect. One problem with the test, for example, is that it uses vision to measure self-awareness. Yet not all animals rely on sight to recognize themselves. It may well be that a bat, for example, which depends on sonar(回声定位) to get around, is self-conscious. Elephants, while able to pa
30、ss the mirror test, rely more heavily on smell than on sight. Consciousness in humans or animals is not easy to measure or understand. Philosophers and scientists have long wrestled with the questions of how a sense of self is assessed, and how it relates to physical processes. Jordan believes the c
31、leaner wrasse is self-cognizant(自我知晓的),but not the same extent(程度) as a human. This means scientists need to reconsider whether some concepts centered on humans can be used in understanding animals.28.Why are dolphins, elephants and chimpanzees mentioned in the text?A. They are as clever as humans.B
32、. They have some sense of self.C. They have the same intelligence.D. They are widely used in experiments.29.The study on the cleaner wrasse made Alex Jordan_.A. doubt whether the mirror test is reliableB. discover the secret about the fishs sightC. develop a better method to replace the mirror testD
33、. believe the cleaner wrasse is as smart as chimpanzees30.Which of the following can replace the underlined part “wrestled with”? A. presented with B. ended with C. struggled with D. agreed with31.What can we learn from the text?A. It is relatively easy to test animals consciousness.B. Some concepts
34、 for humans cant be applied to animals.C. Animals rely on at least two senses to get to know themselves.D. More tests need to be done to prove the cleaner wrasse is self-aware.D. Differences in time zones complicate international phone calls. But even more important are different concepts of time an
35、d approaches to time in different cultures. People from the USA as well as other North Americans believe “Time is money”. This value of time is rooted in their ancestors. Early in the 17th century, their ancestors arrived on the Atlantic coast, a new, undeveloped land. To survive in the tough enviro
36、nment, they had to struggle day and night. Time meant so much to them that they had not even one second to waste. After decades of struggle, they developed the value of efficient use of time and passed it down. Thus far, the Americans are still eager to finish things quickly and are impatient with t
37、oo reflective(深思熟虑) people. In some countries, the American work style of speeding everything up will have no significance. In the Arab East, the more important you are, the faster service you get. Close relatives take absolute priority(优先权);non-relatives are kept waiting. In the Middle East, a dead
38、line, which is often established to show the degree of urgency or importance of work, will do nothing but stop the Middle Easterners from working, because they consider it rude and overly demanding.Another aspect reflecting different concepts of time is the classification of monochronic-time and pol
39、ychronic-time by Edward T Hall. People from monochronic(共时性的) cultures,such as the Germans, the Austrians, the Swiss and the Americans, do only one important thing at a time. In polychronic cultures, people such as Arabs, Asians and Latin Americans take an entirely opposite approach. They do several
40、 things at once. Time commitments, e.g. deadlines, schedules, are taken rather casually and changed often and easily Miscommunication will arise when people from the two cultures contact(接触). Charlies Hawkins, a U.S. teacher, told me that many a time his appointments with Indians were interrupted co
41、nstantly, not only by private phone calls, but also by long conversations with other people and even the neighbors children, which displeased and even annoyed him.32.Why did the ancestors of the North Americans believe “Time is money”?A. They formed the habit of finishing work ahead of time.B. They
42、got the idea from their past generations.C. They didnt like to deal with reflective people.D. They had to work efficiently to survive.33.What can be concluded from Paragraph 3?A. Deadlines will make American people angry.B. In the Arab East, youd better speed everything up.C. Middle Easterners cant
43、deal with demanding work.D. People from the Arab East attach importance to relationship.34.What can we learn about people from monochronic cultures?A. They tend to interrupt others constantly.B. They cant tolerate lateness or interruptions.C. They are more likely to change their schedules.D. They li
44、ke to schedule several activities at the same time.35.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. The importance of the diversity of culture B. The relationship between efficiency and cultureC. Different time values in different culturesD. Monochronic culture and polychronic cultu

A recent study found that people living with
46、in a kilometer of physical activity facilities (设施) weighed less than those who didnt. _37_ A review article nearly a decade ago found that people with the highest levels of active physical activity, including walking, standing, cooking and even gardening, tend to weigh less. _38_ It is even more im
47、portant in our modern environment, filled with labor-saving devices, televisions and technology. _39_ This may not be a coincidence. A recent review article shows that capsaicin(辣椒素) may play a role in weight control in several ways, including reducing appetite, increasing the use of fat as fuel and
48、 modestly increasing metabolism(新陈代谢). Colorado has the lowest rate of obesity (肥胖) in the United States, and there may be a good reason: the altitude._40_ The study suggests that lower oxygen levels, higher metabolic demands at higher altitudes and increased activation of the sympathetic nervous sy
