A dog’s tail can tell you a lot more than you might think. Is it wagging (摇) to the left or is it wagging to the right?
“The direction of tail wagging does in fact matter，”said Giorgio Vallortigara，a professor at the University of Trento in Italy. Professor Vallortigara finds that the way the tail is wagging can tell you a lot about a dog’s state of mind—whether you’re a human or another dog.
What’s the difference between a left wag and a right wag？Professor Vallortigara and his colleagues have studied 43 dogs of various breeds — German Shepherds，Beagles，Boxers，Border Collies and some mutts. They find that if a dog wags its tail to the left. it’s feeling anxious or nervous. The reason could be an unfamiliar or dangerous situation，an unfamiliar person，or an unfamiliar and possibly threatening dog. But if the tail is wagging to the right，it means the dog is feeling relaxed and approachable.
“The tail is a very important signal，”said Thomas Reimchen，a biologist at the University of Victoria in British Columbia, Canada. ”There is a lot of visual information that dogs use when communicating with each other. ”
How did the scientists figure all this information out? They had the dogs in their study watch videotapes of other dogs. When the dog on the tape wagged its tail to the right，they say the other dogs remained calm and cool. But when the dog on the tape wagged its tail to the left，the other dogs got anxious.
The researchers are still not exactly sure if the direction of tail wagging is something the dog does consciously. They suspect that it might be something the dog does without even thinking about it — kind of like when you get goose bumps if something scares or startles you. They plan to do more research to get more information about what dogs are thinking and feeling while they’re wagging. As Reimchen said，“I'm not going to be surprised if we find all sorts of really interesting processes that nobody has ever seen before. ”
1.Professor Vallortigara’s study focused on the relationship between_________.
A. a dog’s state of mind and its owner's feeling
B. a dog’s state of mind and the direction of its tail wagging
C. a dog’s sense of direction and its state of mind
D. a dog’s intention of tail wagging and its feeling
2.According to the study，dogs which wag their tails to the left may feel_________.
A. calm B. happy C. angry D. nervous
3.It is implied in Thomas Reimchen’s words in Paragraph 4 that___________.
A. dogs’ tails play all important role in their growth
B. dogs show their feelings only by wagging their tails
C. dogs get to know others by watching tail wagging
D. dogs can understand each other by repeating tail wagging
4.How does the passage mainly develop?
A. By asking and analyzing questions
B. By making comparisons
C. By following the order of time
D. By providing examples

As is shown in a recent study, the way people sleep at night actually determines a lot about the type personality they have. Robert Phipps, a body language expert, has identified four sleeping positions that affect personality.
Phipps found that worriers, those who stress the most, tend to sleep in the fetal(胎儿的) position. He found that this is by far the most common bedtime position, sleeping on their side with knees up and head down. The more we curl up(蜷曲), the more comfort we are seeking, according to Phipps.
The second most common position is the log, indicating stubbornness. People sleep with a straight body, with arms at each side, as if they are standing guard at Buckingham Palace, and these people (the 28 percent who sleep this way) often wake up stiffer(更僵硬) than when they went to sleep.” The longer you sleep like this, the more rigid your thinking is and you can become inflexible, which means you make things harder for yourself,” according to Phipps.
Yearner(向往型的) sleepers are next on the list. About 25 percent of people sleep in this style----on their backs with arms stretched out in front, looking as if they are either chasing a dream or perhaps being chased themselves. Yearners are typically their own worst critics, always expecting great results, explained Phipps. These people often wake up refreshed and eager to face the challenges of the day ahead.
Perhaps the most special sleep style is the freefaller position. This sleep style makes up 17 percent of the population. They sleep face down with arms stretched out. These people, according to Phipps, feel like they have little control over their life. Not only is this the strangest of sleep styles, it also the least comfortable, and people may wake up feeling tired and have no energy.
In conclusion, Phipps has only one more thing to add: “A good night’s sleep sets you up for the following day and our sleeping positions can determine how we feel when we wake.”
1.Which of the following pictures is the fetal position?
A.
B.
C.
D.
2.The underlined word “rigid” the third paragraph is closest in meaning to “________”.
A. comfortable B. flexible C. stubborn D. strange
3.Which sleeping position indicates that the sleeper tends to seek perfection?
A. The fetal position B. The log position
C. The yearner position D. The freefaller position
4.What is the passage mainly about?
A. Which sleeping position helps you sleep comfortably？
B. A good night’s sleep sets you up for the following day.
C. How you sleep at night affects what you do the next day.
D. Your personality depends a lot on how you sleep at night.

Well, parents, surprise! Lots of us are using Twitter and Facebook to find rides, and not just to school. It’s awkward to call a friend and ask for a ride, and half the time they’ll say, “Sorry, my car is full.” But with Twitter, you just tweet (贴子,留言) and look for other people heading the same way.
It may sound risky, but many teens stay within their own social circles to find rides, and don’t branch out beyond friends of friends when asking on Twitter. For me, I only rideshare with people I know, but to some young people, especially those taking longer trips, stranger danger is less of a concern.
The sharing economy got big during the recession（经济衰退）. It allows people to access more goods and services using technology, while also allowing them to share cost. And that technology, for me, is what the car was for my mom, a gateway to more freedom.
According to the researchers at the University of Michigan, 30 years ago, eight in ten American 18-year-olds had a driver’s license. Today it’s six in ten. So it’s not that surprising that on my 16th birthday I wasn’t rushing to get a license. All I wanted was an iPhone. Juliet Schor (Sociology professor at Boston College) knows people my age love being connected and for young people driving means they have to disconnect from their technology, and that’s a negative. So if they could sit in the passenger side and still be connected, that’s going to be a plus.
To me, another plus is ridesharing represents something much bigger than trying to save money. I see it as evidence that people still depend on each other. My generation shares their cars and apartments the way neighbors used to share cups of sugar. For the system to work, some of us still need our own cars. But until I get my own version of the silver Super Beetle, you can find me on Twitter.
1.The writer usually rideshares with _____.
A. anyone heading the same way B. people he knows
C. friends of friends D. strangers of his age
2.Fewer young people choose to ride by themselves because _____.
A. driving means offering free rides to others.
B. getting a driving license becomes more difficult.
C. driving one’s own cars causes a negative impression.
D. driving makes them disconnected from technology.
3.We can conclude from the passage that _____.
A. the writer rideshares just to save money
B. people under 18 are not allowed to drive
C. silver Super Beetle is the writer’s favorite
D. the older generation had to fight for freedom
4.Which is the best title for the passage?
A. Teens use Twitter to thumb rides.
B. Tips on reducing risks in ridesharing.
C. Car is no longer a gateway to freedom.
D. New generation knows how to save money.
