2.In the late 1950s,a Russian geneticist called Dmitry K.Belyaev attempted to create a tame (驯化的) fox population.Through the work of a breeding programme at the Institute of Cytology and Genetics at Novosibirsk,in Russia,he sought to find the evolutionary pathway of tame animals.His test subjects were silver-black foxes,a melanistic (带黑色的) version of the red fox that had been bred in farms for the color of their fur.
He selected the animals based on how they responded when their cage was opened.About 10% of the foxes displayed a weak"wild-response",meaning they were docile around humans.Those that hid in the comer or made aggressive voices were left in the farm.Of those friendly foxes,100females and 30males were chosen as the first generations of parents.
When the young foxes were born,the researchers hand-fed them.They also attempted to touch or pet the foxes when they were two to two-and-a-half months old,for strictly measured periods at a time.If the young foxes continued to show aggressive response,even after significant human contact,they were thrown away from the population---meaning they were made into fur coats.In each selection,less than 10% of tame individuals were used as parents of the next generation.
By the fourth generation,the scientists started to see dramatic changes.The young foxes were beginning to behave more like dogs.They wagged their tails and"eagerly"sought contact with humans.By 2005-2006,almost all the foxes were playful,friendly and behaving like domestic dogs.The foxes could"read"human hints and respond correctly to gestures or glances.

28.What do we know about Belyaev's breeding plan?B
A.It explains how red foxes were bred.
B.It focuses on how tame animals evolved.
C.It explains why pet foxes became popular.

29.How did he choose his test foxes in the experiment?C
A.By appearance.
B.By color.
C.By reaction.
D.By flexibility.
30.What can be inferred from Paragraph 3?C
A.Smart foxes were used for testing.
B.The purpose of selection was unclear.
C.Friendly foxes were kept on testing.
D.The selection was not exact and thorough.
31.What is the distinguishing characteristic of the fourth generation foxes?A
A.Behaving in a friendlier way.
B.Eating plants.
C.Having drooping ears.

19.A MENTORING(导师制)program is giving life changing opportunities to Banbury youth.
Young Inspirations was founded two years ago to provide mentoring sessions for students and unemployed young adults aged 11 to 21.
Alex Goldberg,the program's founder,said:"We set up Young Inspirations because we wanted to give young people experiences which will potentially be life changing and broaden their outlook.
"We try to create work experience opportunities that will really make a difference to our youth.For example,we've secured internships(实习)with world-famous firms such as Honda.
"At a time of funding cutbacks where schools are finding it more and more difficult to offer this kind of mentoring,it is extremely important that these opportunities are available both to help youth with their school work and grades and to give them opportunities which may help shape their futures."Kieran Hepburn,14,is one of a group of Banbury youth who has benefited from the program so far.In October the Banbury School pupil was accompanied by Young Inspirations staff to Paris where he was an observer at the United Nations Educational,Scientific and Cultural Organization's (UNESCO) International Youth Forum (论坛).
The event was held for young people from around the world,to seek their views on how the future of youth and education should look.Kieran joined several hundred observers mostly in their 20s and was the only UK school pupil to attend the event.Kieran thinks the trip was a fife changing experience."Before we left I didn't quite know what to make of it but when we got there we didn't stop;it was amazing,"he said,"We went to three or four hours of debates each day and then did something cultural each afternoon."
The main theme of the forum was how youth can drive change in political and public life.It dealt with issues(问题)such as drug abuse,violence and unemployment.
Kieran said:"It has really helped me to improve my confidence and social skills as well as my school grades and I was voted most improved pupil at school in August."
The Young Inspirations mentoring sessions take place each Friday in Banbury.For details visit www.youngins pirations.com.

27.According to Alex Goldberg,it is difficult for schools to offer the mentoring due toD.
A.the lack of support from firms
B.the cultural differences

Mobile phones bring us much convenience and has become part of our life.However,more and more phubbers,especially young people,would like to stare at their screen anytime and anywhere,whethe r they are riding on a bus,eating at dinner tables or walking across the street.They never care about what happens around.
As far as I am concerned,the habit of phubbing has many disadvantages.First,it does harm to people's health,especially their eyes.Besides,phubbing is also dangerous while people are crossing the street.What's more,in some occasions,such as at dinner table,phubbing seems impolite to others.
In a word,people should make good use of mobile phones instead of becoming addicted to phubbing.

3.Move Earth-It's Not Science FictionLONDON-Scientists have found an unusual way to prevent our planet from overheating:move it to a cooler spot.All you have to do is send a few comets(彗星)in the direction of Earth,and its orbit will be changed.Our world will then be sent spinning into a safer,colder part of the solar system.
This idea for improving our climate comes from a group of US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) engineers and American astronomers.They say their plan could add another six billion years to the useful lifetime of our planet-effectively doubling its working life.
The plan put forward by Dr.Laughlin,and his colleagues Don Kory can sky and Fred Adams,needs carefully directing a comet or asteroid (小行星)so that it passes close by our planet and sends some of its gravitational energy to Earth.
"Earth's orbital speed w ould increase as a result and we would move to a higher orbit away from the Sun,"Laughlin said.
Engineers would then direct their comet so that it passed close to Jupiter or Saturn.The comet would pick up energy from one of these giant planets.Later its orbit would bring it back to Earth,and the process would be repeated.
In the short term,the plan provides an ideal way to global warming,although the team was actually concerned with a much greater danger.The Sun is certain to heat up in about a billion years and so"seriously compromise"our biosphere(生物圈)-by cooking us.
That's why the group decided to try to save Earth.
The plan has one or two worrying aspects,however.For a start,space engineers would have to be very careful about how they directed their asteroid or comet towards Earth.The smallest miscalculation(误算)in orbit could fire it straight at Earth-with deadly results.
There is also the question of the Moon.As the current issue of Scientific American magazine points out,if Earth was pushed out of its current position,it is"most likely the Moon would be stripped away from Earth".This would greatly change our planet's climate.

67.What makes the scientists plan to move Earth?C
A.A few comets are moving to the direction of Earth.
B.Earth's working life is coming to an end soon.
C.Earth will become too hot for mankind to keep alive.
D.The moon is moving farther and farther away from Earth.
68.If the plan is successful,Earth will have a working life ofAyears.
A.12 billion B.6 billion C.18 billion D.24 billion
69.What serious problems might the plan cause according to the passage?A
A.The comet might hit Earth and man might lose the Moon.
B.Earth might be moved too far away and man might be frozen to death.
C.The comet might hit Jupiter or Saturn and never return to Earth.
D.Earth's working life might be greatly shortened.
70.What does the underlined word"compromise"mean?D
A.Surround.B.Benefit.C.Share.D.Endanger.

14.Beginning college is exciting:new ideas to explore,new challenges to be met and many decisions to be made;your future begins here.
However,you will find college life is different from your previous school environment.Many of us can be easily defeated by the details of running a well-balanced life.While some of us may have the know-how,I guess there are more of us who can benefit from learning about the experiences of others who have walked the college halls before you.
The following you may find useful about life on campus:
•Plan well.There are so many new things to do at a new college or university.Give yourself time to make new friends and became familiar with the campus,but don't forget why you are there.Give some time for social activities and manage your time wisely.
•If you don't have a"system"for planning your time now (like a day timer,a potable data book),get one.Most of all,don't depend on your memory.
•Don't miss the guidelines.The restrictions,rules and regulations of all kinds can usually be found in your student's handbook.Consider them well-balanced food for thought.What dates are important?What pieces of paper need to be handed in?What can/can't you do in your student residence (住处)?Who has the right for what?What do you need to complete to graduate?
•Write the word"STUDY"on the walls of your bedroom and bathroom,and maybe it will help to write it on a piece of paper and stick it on the telephone,TV and the kitchen table.Consider this-you are paying thousands of dollars for your course.You pay every time you have to repeat or replace a course.
•Build your identity.This is the time for you to decide what to do and what not to do.Take as much time as you need to explore new ideas.Do not be afraid of the beyond.This is learning to make good choices.

29.What is the main purpose of the passage?D
A.To explain why college life is exciting.
B.To persuade you to go to college.
C.To describe the importance of college life.
D.To offer advice on college life.
30.According to the passage,why is it exciting to begin college life?D
A.Because you will learn a lot of knowledge.
B.Because you will no longer be afraid of challenges.
C.Because you will make important decisions.
D.Because you get yourself prepared for your future career and life there.
31.The underlined word"know-how"refers toC.
A.an understanding of college regulations.
B.a brand-new environment.
C.practical knowledge concerning college life.
D.college rules and regulations.
32.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A
A.college students should know what they have fought for on campus.
B.college students should spend as much time as possible on social activities.

15.No one can deny that buttons are an important device.Whenever we see a button,we are eager to press it because we know something will happen.This is true in most cases,for example on a doorbell and on the"on/off"button on the TV.But some buttons are actually fake,like the"close"button on a lift.
Many people are in the habit of pressing the"close"button because they don't have the patience to wait for the lift doors to shut.But lifts'"close"buttons are a complete scam (骗局),at least in the US-the doors will not close any faster no matter how hard you press.
It started in the 1990s when the Americans with Disabilities Act was passed in the US,making sure that all lifts stayed open long enough so that people with disabilities could enter.Only US firefighters and repairmen can use the buttons to speed up the door-closing process if they have a code or special keys.
But to normal lift riders,the buttons aren't completely useless.According to psychologists,fake buttons can actually make you feel better by offering you a sense of control.
"Perceived (能够感知的) control is very important.It reduces stress and increases well-being,"Ellen J.Langer,a psychology professor,said,"having a lack of control is associated with depression."
Experts have revealed that a lot of buttons that don't do anything exist in our lives for this same purpose.For example,many offices in the US have fake thermostats (温度调节器) because people tend to feel better when they think they can control the temperature in their workspace.
But psychologists found it interesting that even when people are aware of these little"white lies",they still continue to push fake buttons because as long as the doors eventually close,it is considered to be worth the effort.
"That habit is here to stay,"John Kounios,a psychology professor,said."Even though I have real doubts about the traffic light buttons,I always press them.After all,I've got nothing else to do while waiting.So why not press the button in the hope that this one will work?"

25.What was the author's main purpose in writing the article?D
A.To explore people's different habits when it comes to pushing buttons.
B.To describe some different kinds of fake buttons.
C.To explain the advantages and disadvantages of fake buttons.
D.To analyze the functions of fake buttons.
26.In America,the"close"buttons on liftsA.
A.are fake for the convenience of disabled people
B.work only when people press them hard for a while
C.were specially designed to give people a sense of control
D.cannot speed up the process of closing the door in any case
27.The underlined part"for this same purpose"in Paragraph 6 refers toB.
A.making people more patient              
B.giving people perceived control
C.helping people to build up confidence      
D.making people with depression feel better
28.According to John Kounios,people who press fake buttonsC.
A.should give up this habit
B.consider what they do to be meaningless
C.probably do so to kill time
D.don't know that what they press is fake.
