There are different explanations of a wolfs howl and it appears that there may be more to discover. One theo
15、ry is that wolves howl to bond better together. Its almost as if howling together helps the pack stay together. Perhaps something similar to people feeling a sense of involvement with each other when singing a song together. But this theory may be wrong, explains Fred H. Harrington, a professor who
16、studies wolf behaviour. Indeed, there have been times when wolves have been seen one moment howling in a chorus, and the next, quarreling among each other. It appears that usually the lowest-ranking members of the pack may actually be“punished” for joining in the chorus at times. So is howling a way
17、 to strengthen a social bond or just a way to reconfirm status among its members? Why do wolves howl for sure? What is clear, however, is that howling is often used among packmates to locate each other. Hunting grounds are distant and it happens that wolves may separate from one another at times. Wh
18、en this happens, howling appears to be an excellent means of gathering. Howling, interestingly, is a contagious behaviour. When one wolf starts to howl, very likely others will follow. This is often seen to occur in the morning, as if wolves were doing some sort of “roll call” where wolves all howl

The sense of accomplishment.C. The act of hunting for something. D. The sense of belonging to a group.2. Why does Harrington think

Wolves of low rank are encouraged to join in the chorus.3. Researchers are sure that wolves often howl t

31、 “When two English meet, their first talk is of weather.” Though Johnsons observation is as accurate now as it was over two hundred years ago, most commentators fail to come up with a convincing explanation for this English weatherspeak.Bill Bryson, for example, concludes that，as the English weather
32、 is not at all exciting，the obsession with it can hardly be understood.He argues that “To an outsider，the most striking thing about the English weather is that there is not very much of it.” Simply, the reason is that the unusual and unpredictable weather is almost unknown in the British Isles.Jerem
33、y Paxman, however, disagrees with Bryson, arguing that the English weather is by nature attractive.Bryson is wrong, he says，because the English preference for the weather has nothing to do with the natural phenomena. “The interest is less in the phenomena themselves, but in uncertainty.” According t
34、o him, the weather in England is very changeable and uncertain and it attracts the English as well as the outsider.Bryson and Paxman stand for common misconceptions about the weatherspeak among the English.Both commentators, somehow, are missing the point.The English weather conversation is not real
35、ly about the weather at all.English weatherspeak is a system of signs，which is developed to help the speakers overcome the natural reserve and actually talk to each other.Everyone knows conversations starting with weatherspeak are not requests for weather data.Rather, they are routine greetings，conv
36、ersation starters or the blank “fillers”. In other words, English weatherspeak is a means of social bonding.72The author mentions Dr.Johnsons comment to show that _Amost commentators agree with Dr.JohnsonBDr.Johnson is famous for his weather observationCthe comment was accurate two hundred years ago
37、DEnglish conversations usually start with the weather73What does the underlined word “obsession” most probably refer to?AA social trend.BAn emotional state.CA historical concept.DAn unknown phenomenon.74According to the passage，Jeremy Paxman believes that _ABill Bryson has little knowledge of the we

40、uch of it)不足以引起人们的情感响应，因此该词此处指的是 “情感状态”。74D细节理解题。倒数第二段中有“The interest is less in the phenomena themselves, but in uncertainty.”(意思是：人们对英国气候的关注点不是气候本身，而是气候的不确定性。)由此可知答案。75A写作目的题。通过对Bill Bryson和Jeremy Paxman两人迥然不同的观点的陈述来阐明作者对英国人以天气为寒暄内容的见解。C72013安徽卷 -A The Healthy Habits Survey(调查)shows that only abou

47、neCa book review Dan official document【要点综述】 这是一份调查报告，是针对美国老年人的健康习惯所做的调查。56D细节理解题。根据第一项调查中“A full 33% of seniors brush their teeth only once a day.”可知，大约有三分之一的美国老年人一天只刷一次牙。57D细节理解题。根据第二项调查中“4 times a dayhalf of the number doctors recommend”可知，四次是医生建议次数的一半，也就是说，医生建议老年人每天洗八次手，故选D。58C细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二句“Do you know it is not your toilet but your kitchen sponge that can carry more germs than anything else？”可知，厨房里的海绵比卫生间带有的细菌还要多。59B推理判断题。由文章内容可知，这是一份调查报告，是针对美国老年人的健康习惯所做的调查。这样的文章理应不会出现在“旅游指南”“书评”“官方文件”里，故排除A、C、D。流行杂志做这样的调查报告很常见，故选B。
