13．（6分）Hello，my name is Jimmy.One day my eighth grade friend said that he was taking the school geography bee （比赛） written test the next day.Something in his tone told me that he was not looking forward to the bee.I could not understand!It sounded like a lot of fun to me.
All day，I found myself wishing I was in middle school，so I could take part in the geography bee.During my lunch break I walked up to my social studies teacher's classroom and asked her if I could take part in the bee for middle school.But she did hesitate （犹豫） a bit because I was too young，just a primary school pupil.I told her that I really loved to learn about our earth，its rivers，mountains，all the human cultures on it.She was still not sure but finally said， "Yes." I jumped at once!
That next morning I was going to be in the school bee as a participant （参赛者） and learn things I was really interested in.I was not nervous one bit，instead just very excited to be doing something I really loved.We had four written rounds — two on the United States and two on the world.I did surprisingly well and placed on the top ten，beating some of the strong seventh and eighth graders.I lost in the oral round the next day，but won my teacher's attention.I came home and looked up the answers to the questions that I and other students lost on.
I placed second in my school the following year，but more importantly，I realized that I really loved geography and enjoyed the time I spent learning it.I may have lost that first bee，but I won the world；a love for that world；love to explore that world — one country，one mountain，one river，one landform at a time；and that is certainly the biggest win for me truly!
（1）Jimmy was a（n） .
A.eighth grader
B.geography teacher
C.primary school pupil
D.middle school worker
（2）When the teacher agreed to let Jimmy take part in the geography bee，he was .
A.surprised
B.worried
C.excited
D.nervous
（3）After Jimmy's first geography bee，we can infer that .
A.he fell in love with geography
B.he felt excited to take part in bees
C.he felt sorry to lose the geography bee
he found it hard to learn geography well
14．（6分）In September，something terrible happened on the west coast of Tasmania，Australia.As many as 380 pilot whales became stranded（搁浅） in shallow water there and later died.This might have been Australia's largest stranding event on record，the BBC reported.
But this large amount of whale stranding is not uncommon.For centuries，it has happened all over the world and has puzzled scientists.Scientists say the cause is often unknown.But they have offered many different explanations.
Some say the whales chase small fish for food and end up in shallow water because they are not paying attention to where they are going.
Others think the stranding has something to do with Earth's geomagnetic field （地磁场）.They say that a geomagnetic compass in whales' brains controls their position.Unusual changes in Earth's magnetic field can affect the whales' compasses and send them in the wrong direction.
Another explanation suggests that stranding is caused by the close relationships that whales have.Pilot whales travel in large groups.One lead whale might mistakenly lead the whole group to shallow water. "And if one gets into trouble，the others will not leave，" said Sheryl Gibney，a leading biologist from New Zealand. "Some will come in and try to help.They get trapped on the beach and then more will come."
The whales are trapped by mistake or out of sympathy（同情）.Once they get stranded，they will likely die.According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration of the US，less than 10 percent of all stranded whales survive.
（1）What do we know about the stranding in Australia？
A.It happened on the east coast of Australia.
B.It caused the death of over 300 pilot whales.
C.It is commonly seen in September each year.
D.It was the largest stranding event in the world.
（2）According to Gibney，the pilot whales are the animals that .
A.are kind to each other
B.are easy to lose direction
C.are too huge to float in the sea
D.are silly to follow the leading whale
（3）What is the story mainly about？
A.How human activity has affected whales.
B.What might cause whale strandings.
C.How whales find their direction while traveling.
D.What scientists are doing to save stranded whales.

Do Dogs Dream？
Unlike cartoon images，real dogs don't speak and describe their sleep.So you may wonder：do dogs dream like their owners？
A scientific research conducted at MIT found that during sleep brains of humans and dogs work in a similar manner.When you or your dog first falls asleep，you experience SWS — slow wave （波） sleep — when the brain waves are slow but muscles are still active.Later a deeper stage of sleep happens.This stage is called REM sleep — rapid eye movements sleep.During REM，muscles are more relaxed，but the mind is more active.
It was proved that both humans and dogs experience these two stages of the sleep circle.Since we know that humans dream，it is easy to conclude that dogs dream too.
Scientists found that as a dog falls asleep，his breathing becomes deeper and more regular （规则的）.After about 20 minutes in REM sleep，dreams usually begin for normal dogs.While dreaming，the dog's breathing may become weak and irregular，and his eyes move about behind the closed lids （眼睑） as if the dog is looking at something.By comparing brain wave patterns，researchers suggested that during REM，dogs are visualizing （呈现） dream images much like humans do during this stage of sleep.
Besides，it also found that during REM，the sleeping brain operates much like it does when awake，so both man and dogs dream about things that happen during their waking hours.
Information gathered during the day is processed at night and may be relived in dreams.So your dog may "sleep run" as he runs after a cat or fetches a ball.
Studies also show that some dogs dream more than others，and the frequency and length of dreams are different according to the age and size of dogs.Young puppies usually experience more dreams than adult dogs.One possible reason is that puppies get huge amounts of new information daily and have much to process at night.Among dogs of the same age，smaller dogs seem to have more dreams than their bigger friends，but their dreams may last shorter.Dream length and frequency are also related to the amount of sleep required.A dog that has an active day outside may sleep more soundly than usual and experience longer periods of REM sleep，giving him more time to dream.
（1）What happens to the dogs during REM sleep？
A.Their muscles stay active.
B.Their dreams take place.
C.Their brain waves are slow.
D.Their mind is more relaxed.
（2）While dreaming，the dog .
A.breathes regularly
B.opens the lids
C.visualizes images
D.gathers information
（3）What does the underlined word "relived" probably mean？
A.Required.
B.Reviewed.
C.Repaired.
D.Researched.
（4）What is the last paragraph mainly about？
A.Why dogs dream like humans.
B.What bigger dogs dream about.
C.Why young puppies have more dreams.
D.What causes the differences of dogs' dreams.

16．（10分）Have you ever heard of netball？It is a team sport which is similar to both basketball and handball.
Netball was first played in England in 1895 at Madame Ostenburg's College.In the first half of the 20th century，Netball's popularity continued to grow，with the game being played in many countries，it is particularly popular in Australia and New Zealand.In 1995 Netball became a "recognized" sport of the International Olympic Committee （IOC） and one of the International Netball Federation's goals is to encourage the IOC to include netball in the Olympic Games Programme in the future.
There are seven players on each team and they each wear a bib （号码布） which shows the name of the position they play.Players must throw the ball to one another and the aim of the game is to pass the ball to the "Goal Shooter" or "Goal Attack" who can shoot the ball into the net to score a goal.However，the key rules of netball are that you cannot bounce （拍） the ball and you cannot move your feet when you have the ball.This is called the footwork rule and it can be quite difficult to grasp （掌握） for young children playing the game!A full match lasts for one hour and in a single match often about 100 goals are scored which shows what a fast﹣paced and exciting game netball is!
Netball is typically played by women and girls.However，at many universities，there are mixed netball leagues （联赛） in which teams must have both male and female players.
In the UK，there are many different ways to try to attract women to play netball.One such plan is called "Back to Netball" which encourages women who have not played netball since they were at school to rediscover their love for the sport and get back on the court!Walking Netball is another variation （变化形式） of the sport aimed at older women and those who want to exercise in a gentler way.So，why not watch a video of netball online and then have a go for yourself？
（1）What is netball similar to？
（2）When was netball first played？
（3）How long does a full netball match last？
（4）What is Walking Netball？
（5）What is Paragraph 3 mainly talking about？

13．（6分）Hello，my name is Jimmy.One day my eighth grade friend said that he was taking the school geography bee （比赛） written test the next day.Something in his tone told me that he was not looking forward to the bee.I could not understand!It sounded like a lot of fun to me.
All day，I found myself wishing I was in middle school，so I could take part in the geography bee.During my lunch break I walked up to my social studies teacher's classroom and asked her if I could take part in the bee for middle school.But she did hesitate （犹豫） a bit because I was too young，just a primary school pupil.I told her that I really loved to learn about our earth，its rivers，mountains，all the human cultures on it.She was still not sure but finally said， "Yes." I jumped at once!
That next morning I was going to be in the school bee as a participant （参赛者） and learn things I was really interested in.I was not nervous one bit，instead just very excited to be doing something I really loved.We had four written rounds — two on the United States and two on the world.I did surprisingly well and placed on the top ten，beating some of the strong seventh and eighth graders.I lost in the oral round the next day，but won my teacher's attention.I came home and looked up the answers to the questions that I and other students lost on.
I placed second in my school the following year，but more importantly，I realized that I really loved geography and enjoyed the time I spent learning it.I may have lost that first bee，but I won the world；a love for that world；love to explore that world — one country，one mountain，one river，one landform at a time；and that is certainly the biggest win for me truly!

14．（6分）In September，something terrible happened on the west coast of Tasmania，Australia.As many as 380 pilot whales became stranded（搁浅） in shallow water there and later died.This might have been Australia's largest stranding event on record，the BBC reported.
But this large amount of whale stranding is not uncommon.For centuries，it has happened all over the world and has puzzled scientists.Scientists say the cause is often unknown.But they have offered many different explanations.
Some say the whales chase small fish for food and end up in shallow water because they are not paying attention to where they are going.
Others think the stranding has something to do with Earth's geomagnetic field （地磁场）.They say that a geomagnetic compass in whales' brains controls their position.Unusual changes in Earth's magnetic field can affect the whales' compasses and send them in the wrong direction.
Another explanation suggests that stranding is caused by the close relationships that whales have.Pilot whales travel in large groups.One lead whale might mistakenly lead the whole group to shallow water. "And if one gets into trouble，the others will not leave，" said Sheryl Gibney，a leading biologist from New Zealand. "Some will come in and try to help.They get trapped on the beach and then more will come."
The whales are trapped by mistake or out of sympathy（同情）.Once they get stranded，they will likely die.According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration of the US，less than 10 percent of all stranded whales survive.
（1）What do we know about the stranding in Australia？ B
A.It happened on the east coast of Australia.
B.It caused the death of over 300 pilot whales.
C.It is commonly seen in September each year.
D.It was the largest stranding event in the world.
（2）According to Gibney，the pilot whales are the animals that A .
A.are kind to each other
B.are easy to lose direction
C.are too huge to float in the sea
D.are silly to follow the leading whale
（3）What is the story mainly about？ B
A.How human activity has affected whales.
B.What might cause whale strandings.
C.How whales find their direction while traveling.
D.What scientists are doing to save stranded whales.
【分析】本文主要介绍了在澳大利亚一起多达380头领航鲸搁浅的事件，以及人们对于大规模鲸鱼搁浅给出不同的解释。
【解答】（1）细节理解题。根据As many as 380 pilot whales became stranded（搁浅）in shallow water there and later died.（多达380头领航鲸搁浅在那里的浅水中，后来死亡。）可知，对于澳大利亚搁浅事件，我们了解到有300多头领航鲸死亡。故选B。
（2）推理判断题。根据And if one gets into trouble，the others will not leave，（如果一只遇到麻烦，其他的就不会离开，）以及Some will come in and try to help，they get trapped on the beach，then more will come.（一些鲸会过来帮忙，它们被困在海滩上，然后更多的鲸会来。）可以推测，领航鲸是彼此友好的动物。故选A。
（3）主旨大意题。通读全文尤其是For centuries，it has happened all over the world and has puzzled scientists.Scientists say the cause is often unknown.But they have offered many different explanations.（几个世纪以来，这种现象在世界各地都有发生，并困扰着科学家们。科学家表示，其原因通常还不清楚。但他们提供了许多不同的解释。）以及后文内容可知，本文主要介绍了在澳大利亚一起领航鲸搁浅的事件，以及人们对于大规模鲸鱼搁浅给出不同的解释。因此，本文主要讲了可能导致鲸鱼搁浅的原因。故选B。

15．（8分）
Do Dogs Dream？
Unlike cartoon images，real dogs don't speak and describe their sleep.So you may wonder：do dogs dream like their owners？
A scientific research conducted at MIT found that during sleep brains of humans and dogs work in a similar manner.When you or your dog first falls asleep，you experience SWS — slow wave （波） sleep — when the brain waves are slow but muscles are still active.Later a deeper stage of sleep happens.This stage is called REM sleep — rapid eye movements sleep.During REM，muscles are more relaxed，but the mind is more active.
It was proved that both humans and dogs experience these two stages of the sleep circle.Since we know that humans dream，it is easy to conclude that dogs dream too.
Scientists found that as a dog falls asleep，his breathing becomes deeper and more regular （规则的）.After about 20 minutes in REM sleep，dreams usually begin for normal dogs.While dreaming，the dog's breathing may become weak and irregular，and his eyes move about behind the closed lids （眼睑） as if the dog is looking at something.By comparing brain wave patterns，researchers suggested that during REM，dogs are visualizing （呈现） dream images much like humans do during this stage of sleep.
Besides，it also found that during REM，the sleeping brain operates much like it does when awake，so both man and dogs dream about things that happen during their waking hours.
Information gathered during the day is processed at night and may be relived in dreams.So your dog may "sleep run" as he runs after a cat or fetches a ball.
Studies also show that some dogs dream more than others，and the frequency and length of dreams are different according to the age and size of dogs.Young puppies usually experience more dreams than adult dogs.One possible reason is that puppies get huge amounts of new information daily and have much to process at night.Among dogs of the same age，smaller dogs seem to have more dreams than their bigger friends，but their dreams may last shorter.Dream length and frequency are also related to the amount of sleep required.A dog that has an active day outside may sleep more soundly than usual and experience longer periods of REM sleep，giving him more time to dream.
（1）What happens to the dogs during REM sleep？ B
A.Their muscles stay active.
B.Their dreams take place.
C.Their brain waves are slow.
D.Their mind is more relaxed.
（2）While dreaming，the dog C .
A.breathes regularly
B.opens the lids
C.visualizes images
D.gathers information
（3）What does the underlined word "relived" probably mean？ B
A.Required.
B.Reviewed.
C.Repaired.
D.Researched.
（4）What is the last paragraph mainly about？ D
A.Why dogs dream like humans.
B.What bigger dogs dream about.
C.Why young puppies have more dreams.
D.What causes the differences of dogs' dreams.
【分析】本文主要介绍了狗做梦的相关情况。
【解答】（1）细节理解题。根据During REM，muscles are more relaxed，but the mind is more active.It was proved that both humans and dogs experience these two stages of the sleep circle.Since we know that humans dream，it is safe to conclude（做出结论）that dogs dream too.（在快速眼动期间，肌肉更放松，但大脑更活跃。实验证明，人类和狗都经历了这两个睡眠周期阶段。既然我们知道人类做梦，那么我们可以安全地得出结论那条狗也会做梦。）因此可知在快速眼动睡眠期间狗在做梦。故选B。
（2）细节理解题。根据researchers suggested that during REM，dogs are visualizing（呈现）dream images much like humans do during this stage of sleep.（研究人员建议在快速眼动期间，狗正在呈现可视化梦的图像就像人类在睡眠的这个阶段所做的那样。）因此可知在做梦的时候，狗在使图像可视化。故选C。
（3）词义猜测题。根据Information gathered during the day is processed at night and may be relived in dreams.So your dog may"sleep run"as he runs after a cat or fetches a ball.（白天收集的信息在夜间处理，并可能在梦中得到__。所以当你的狗追赶一只猫或获取一个球时，你的狗可能会"睡跑"。）根据前后文含义以及结合选项可知，此处relived意为"重现"。故选B。
（4）段落大意题。通读全段，尤其是根据Studies also show that some dogs dream more than others，and the frequency and length of dreams are different according to the age and size of dogs.（研究还表明，一些狗比其他狗做梦更多，而且根据狗的年龄和大小，做梦的频率和时间长短也不同。）因此可知最后一段主要讲述了是什么导致了狗的梦的不同。故选D。

八、阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。（共 10 分，每小题 2 分）
16．（10分）Have you ever heard of netball？It is a team sport which is similar to both basketball and handball.
Netball was first played in England in 1895 at Madame Ostenburg's College.In the first half of the 20th century，Netball's popularity continued to grow，with the game being played in many countries，it is particularly popular in Australia and New Zealand.In 1995 Netball became a "recognized" sport of the International Olympic Committee （IOC） and one of the International Netball Federation's goals is to encourage the IOC to include netball in the Olympic Games Programme in the future.
There are seven players on each team and they each wear a bib （号码布） which shows the name of the position they play.Players must throw the ball to one another and the aim of the game is to pass the ball to the "Goal Shooter" or "Goal Attack" who can shoot the ball into the net to score a goal.However，the key rules of netball are that you cannot bounce （拍） the ball and you cannot move your feet when you have the ball.This is called the footwork rule and it can be quite difficult to grasp （掌握） for young children playing the game!A full match lasts for one hour and in a single match often about 100 goals are scored which shows what a fast﹣paced and exciting game netball is!
Netball is typically played by women and girls.However，at many universities，there are mixed netball leagues （联赛） in which teams must have both male and female players.
In the UK，there are many different ways to try to attract women to play netball.One such plan is called "Back to Netball" which encourages women who have not played netball since they were at school to rediscover their love for the sport and get back on the court!Walking Netball is another variation （变化形式） of the sport aimed at older women and those who want to exercise in a gentler way.So，why not watch a video of netball online and then have a go for yourself？
（1）What is netball similar to？ It is similar to both basketball and handball.
（2）When was netball first played？ In 1895.
（3）How long does a full netball match last？ One hour.
（4）What is Walking Netball？ It is another variation of the sport aimed at older women and those who want to exercise in a gentler way.
（5）What is Paragraph 3 mainly talking about？ It is mainly talking about the rules of netball.

（2）细节理解题。根据Netball was first played in England in 1895 at Madame Ostenburg's College.（无挡板篮球于1895年在英国奥斯伯格夫人学院首次出现。）可知，第一次打无挡板篮球是在1895年。故答案为In 1895.
（3）细节理解题。根据A full match lasts for one hour（一场完整的比赛持续一个小时）可知，无挡板篮球比赛会持续一个小时。故答案为One hour.
（4）细节理解题。根据Walking Netball is another variation of the sport aimed at older women and those who want to exercise in a gentler way.（步行无挡板篮球是这项运动的另一种变体，针对的是老年妇女和那些想要以一种温和的方式锻炼的人。）可知，它是这项运动的另一种变体，针对的是老年妇女和那些想要以一种温和的方式锻炼的人。故答案为It is another variation of the sport aimed at older women and those who want to exercise in a gentler way.
（5）段意归纳题。根据There are seven players on each team and they each wear a bib which shows the name of the position they play.（每队有七名队员，他们每个人都戴着写有他们所处位置名称的号码布。）可知，第三段主要讲的是无挡板篮球的规则。故答案为It is mainly talking about the rules of netball.

Some say the whales chase small fish for food and end up in shallow water because they are not paying attention to where they are going.
Others think the stranding has something to do with Earth's geomagnetic field （地磁场）.They say that a geomagnetic compass in whales' brains controls their position.Unusual changes in Earth's magnetic field can affect the whales' compasses and send them in the wrong direction.
Another explanation suggests that stranding is caused by the close relationships that whales have.Pilot whales travel in large groups.One lead whale might mistakenly lead the whole group to shallow water. "And if one gets into trouble，the others will not leave，" said Sheryl Gibney，a leading biologist from New Zealand. "Some will come in and try to help.They get trapped on the beach and then more will come."
The whales are trapped by mistake or out of sympathy（同情）.Once they get stranded，they will likely die.According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration of the US，less than 10 percent of all stranded whales survive.
（1）What do we know about the stranding in Australia？
A.It happened on the east coast of Australia.
B.It caused the death of over 300 pilot whales.
C.It is commonly seen in September each year.
D.It was the largest stranding event in the world.
（2）According to Gibney，the pilot whales are the animals that .
A.are kind to each other
B.are easy to lose direction
C.are too huge to float in the sea
D.are silly to follow the leading whale
（3）What is the story mainly about？
A.How human activity has affected whales.
B.What might cause whale strandings.
C.How whales find their direction while traveling.
D.What scientists are doing to save stranded whales.

Do Dogs Dream？
Unlike cartoon images，real dogs don't speak and describe their sleep.So you may wonder：do dogs dream like their owners？
A scientific research conducted at MIT found that during sleep brains of humans and dogs work in a similar manner.When you or your dog first falls asleep，you experience SWS — slow wave （波） sleep — when the brain waves are slow but muscles are still active.Later a deeper stage of sleep happens.This stage is called REM sleep — rapid eye movements sleep.During REM，muscles are more relaxed，but the mind is more active.
It was proved that both humans and dogs experience these two stages of the sleep circle.Since we know that humans dream，it is easy to conclude that dogs dream too.
Scientists found that as a dog falls asleep，his breathing becomes deeper and more regular （规则的）.After about 20 minutes in REM sleep，dreams usually begin for normal dogs.While dreaming，the dog's breathing may become weak and irregular，and his eyes move about behind the closed lids （眼睑） as if the dog is looking at something.By comparing brain wave patterns，researchers suggested that during REM，dogs are visualizing （呈现） dream images much like humans do during this stage of sleep.
Besides，it also found that during REM，the sleeping brain operates much like it does when awake，so both man and dogs dream about things that happen during their waking hours.
Information gathered during the day is processed at night and may be relived in dreams.So your dog may "sleep run" as he runs after a cat or fetches a ball.
Studies also show that some dogs dream more than others，and the frequency and length of dreams are different according to the age and size of dogs.Young puppies usually experience more dreams than adult dogs.One possible reason is that puppies get huge amounts of new information daily and have much to process at night.Among dogs of the same age，smaller dogs seem to have more dreams than their bigger friends，but their dreams may last shorter.Dream length and frequency are also related to the amount of sleep required.A dog that has an active day outside may sleep more soundly than usual and experience longer periods of REM sleep，giving him more time to dream.
（1）What happens to the dogs during REM sleep？
A.Their muscles stay active.
B.Their dreams take place.
C.Their brain waves are slow.
D.Their mind is more relaxed.
（2）While dreaming，the dog .
A.breathes regularly
B.opens the lids
C.visualizes images
D.gathers information
（3）What does the underlined word "relived" probably mean？
A.Required.
B.Reviewed.
C.Repaired.
D.Researched.
（4）What is the last paragraph mainly about？
A.Why dogs dream like humans.
B.What bigger dogs dream about.
C.Why young puppies have more dreams.
D.What causes the differences of dogs' dreams.

16．（10分）Have you ever heard of netball？It is a team sport which is similar to both basketball and handball.
Netball was first played in England in 1895 at Madame Ostenburg's College.In the first half of the 20th century，Netball's popularity continued to grow，with the game being played in many countries，it is particularly popular in Australia and New Zealand.In 1995 Netball became a "recognized" sport of the International Olympic Committee （IOC） and one of the International Netball Federation's goals is to encourage the IOC to include netball in the Olympic Games Programme in the future.
There are seven players on each team and they each wear a bib （号码布） which shows the name of the position they play.Players must throw the ball to one another and the aim of the game is to pass the ball to the "Goal Shooter" or "Goal Attack" who can shoot the ball into the net to score a goal.However，the key rules of netball are that you cannot bounce （拍） the ball and you cannot move your feet when you have the ball.This is called the footwork rule and it can be quite difficult to grasp （掌握） for young children playing the game!A full match lasts for one hour and in a single match often about 100 goals are scored which shows what a fast﹣paced and exciting game netball is!
Netball is typically played by women and girls.However，at many universities，there are mixed netball leagues （联赛） in which teams must have both male and female players.
In the UK，there are many different ways to try to attract women to play netball.One such plan is called "Back to Netball" which encourages women who have not played netball since they were at school to rediscover their love for the sport and get back on the court!Walking Netball is another variation （变化形式） of the sport aimed at older women and those who want to exercise in a gentler way.So，why not watch a video of netball online and then have a go for yourself？
（1）What is netball similar to？
（2）When was netball first played？
（3）How long does a full netball match last？
（4）What is Walking Netball？
（5）What is Paragraph 3 mainly talking about？

All day，I found myself wishing I was in middle school，so I could take part in the geography bee.During my lunch break I walked up to my social studies teacher's classroom and asked her if I could take part in the bee for middle school.But she did hesitate （犹豫） a bit because I was too young，just a primary school pupil.I told her that I really loved to learn about our earth，its rivers，mountains，all the human cultures on it.She was still not sure but finally said， "Yes." I jumped at once!
That next morning I was going to be in the school bee as a participant （参赛者） and learn things I was really interested in.I was not nervous one bit，instead just very excited to be doing something I really loved.We had four written rounds — two on the United States and two on the world.I did surprisingly well and placed on the top ten，beating some of the strong seventh and eighth graders.I lost in the oral round the next day，but won my teacher's attention.I came home and looked up the answers to the questions that I and other students lost on.
I placed second in my school the following year，but more importantly，I realized that I really loved geography and enjoyed the time I spent learning it.I may have lost that first bee，but I won the world；a love for that world；love to explore that world — one country，one mountain，one river，one landform at a time；and that is certainly the biggest win for me truly!

It was proved that both humans and dogs experience these two stages of the sleep circle.Since we know that humans dream，it is easy to conclude that dogs dream too.
Scientists found that as a dog falls asleep，his breathing becomes deeper and more regular （规则的）.After about 20 minutes in REM sleep，dreams usually begin for normal dogs.While dreaming，the dog's breathing may become weak and irregular，and his eyes move about behind the closed lids （眼睑） as if the dog is looking at something.By comparing brain wave patterns，researchers suggested that during REM，dogs are visualizing （呈现） dream images much like humans do during this stage of sleep.
Besides，it also found that during REM，the sleeping brain operates much like it does when awake，so both man and dogs dream about things that happen during their waking hours.
Information gathered during the day is processed at night and may be relived in dreams.So your dog may "sleep run" as he runs after a cat or fetches a ball.
Studies also show that some dogs dream more than others，and the frequency and length of dreams are different according to the age and size of dogs.Young puppies usually experience more dreams than adult dogs.One possible reason is that puppies get huge amounts of new information daily and have much to process at night.Among dogs of the same age，smaller dogs seem to have more dreams than their bigger friends，but their dreams may last shorter.Dream length and frequency are also related to the amount of sleep required.A dog that has an active day outside may sleep more soundly than usual and experience longer periods of REM sleep，giving him more time to dream.
（1）What happens to the dogs during REM sleep？ B
A.Their muscles stay active.
B.Their dreams take place.
C.Their brain waves are slow.
D.Their mind is more relaxed.
（2）While dreaming，the dog C .
A.breathes regularly
B.opens the lids
C.visualizes images
D.gathers information
（3）What does the underlined word "relived" probably mean？ B
A.Required.
B.Reviewed.
C.Repaired.
D.Researched.
（4）What is the last paragraph mainly about？ D
A.Why dogs dream like humans.
B.What bigger dogs dream about.
C.Why young puppies have more dreams.
D.What causes the differences of dogs' dreams.
【分析】本文主要介绍了狗做梦的相关情况。
【解答】（1）细节理解题。根据During REM，muscles are more relaxed，but the mind is more active.It was proved that both humans and dogs experience these two stages of the sleep circle.Since we know that humans dream，it is safe to conclude（做出结论）that dogs dream too.（在快速眼动期间，肌肉更放松，但大脑更活跃。实验证明，人类和狗都经历了这两个睡眠周期阶段。既然我们知道人类做梦，那么我们可以安全地得出结论那条狗也会做梦。）因此可知在快速眼动睡眠期间狗在做梦。故选B。
（2）细节理解题。根据researchers suggested that during REM，dogs are visualizing（呈现）dream images much like humans do during this stage of sleep.（研究人员建议在快速眼动期间，狗正在呈现可视化梦的图像就像人类在睡眠的这个阶段所做的那样。）因此可知在做梦的时候，狗在使图像可视化。故选C。
（3）词义猜测题。根据Information gathered during the day is processed at night and may be relived in dreams.So your dog may"sleep run"as he runs after a cat or fetches a ball.（白天收集的信息在夜间处理，并可能在梦中得到__。所以当你的狗追赶一只猫或获取一个球时，你的狗可能会"睡跑"。）根据前后文含义以及结合选项可知，此处relived意为"重现"。故选B。
（4）段落大意题。通读全段，尤其是根据Studies also show that some dogs dream more than others，and the frequency and length of dreams are different according to the age and size of dogs.（研究还表明，一些狗比其他狗做梦更多，而且根据狗的年龄和大小，做梦的频率和时间长短也不同。）因此可知最后一段主要讲述了是什么导致了狗的梦的不同。故选D。
【点评】在通读全文的基础上，根据全文大意，展开逻辑思维，瞻前顾后，认真观察选项，仔细推敲，确定最佳答案。

八、阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。（共 10 分，每小题 2 分）
16．（10分）Have you ever heard of netball？It is a team sport which is similar to both basketball and handball.
Netball was first played in England in 1895 at Madame Ostenburg's College.In the first half of the 20th century，Netball's popularity continued to grow，with the game being played in many countries，it is particularly popular in Australia and New Zealand.In 1995 Netball became a "recognized" sport of the International Olympic Committee （IOC） and one of the International Netball Federation's goals is to encourage the IOC to include netball in the Olympic Games Programme in the future.
There are seven players on each team and they each wear a bib （号码布） which shows the name of the position they play.Players must throw the ball to one another and the aim of the game is to pass the ball to the "Goal Shooter" or "Goal Attack" who can shoot the ball into the net to score a goal.However，the key rules of netball are that you cannot bounce （拍） the ball and you cannot move your feet when you have the ball.This is called the footwork rule and it can be quite difficult to grasp （掌握） for young children playing the game!A full match lasts for one hour and in a single match often about 100 goals are scored which shows what a fast﹣paced and exciting game netball is!
Netball is typically played by women and girls.However，at many universities，there are mixed netball leagues （联赛） in which teams must have both male and female players.
In the UK，there are many different ways to try to attract women to play netball.One such plan is called "Back to Netball" which encourages women who have not played netball since they were at school to rediscover their love for the sport and get back on the court!Walking Netball is another variation （变化形式） of the sport aimed at older women and those who want to exercise in a gentler way.So，why not watch a video of netball online and then have a go for yourself？
