Rutherford first planned to make the trip in three months. But it lasted longer because of several barriers, including rainstorms, sandstorms and extreme heat. Most of the delays were caused by waits to get permits and other documents required for keeping with the flight plan. .

The flight took him through Africa and the Gulf area to India. China, South Korea, and Japan. He crossed the northern Pacific and landed after 10 straight hours in the air on a volcanic island near the Bering Strait. From there, he headed to Alaska and down the  West Coast of the United States to Mexico.

On Wednesday, a huge crowd of people welcomed Rutherford. His father， Sam Rutherford, told reporters that such an event helps show other children they should follow their dreams.

His sister, Zara, said, “While he was flying， I often tried to keep in touch and help him. Our parents called him every day， and I joined in those conversations. I gave him advice on the route, on the flight, so that I could be useful to him.”

If you' ve ever thought that dogs seem to know when people are stressed, you were right. Scientists in Ireland ran an experiment which showed that dogs can tell the difference between the smell of a person when they re relaxed and when they 're stressed.

Researchers at Queen's University Belfast, led by scientist Clara Wilson, worked with four dogs. They taught the dogs to use a special smell- testing device with three openings. The scientists used treats and rewards(奖励) to train the dogs to find and signal the correct opening. Over time, the dogs were given harder and harder smelling jobs. The final goal was to see if they could smell stress in the breath and sweat of a person.

So the researchers collected breath and sweat samples(样品) from 36 different people. They got samples when the people were calm, and also when they were stressed. To stress people out, the scientists asked a really difficult math problem, and forced people to do it in their heads quickly. And they weren't nice about it. They kept telling the people to hurry up，and didn't give them any help. That lasted for three minutes. Then the researchers collected two more sweat and breath samples. They also asked the people about their level of stress, and measured their heart rates and blood pressure. Most people said they felt very stressed. On average, the heart rate increased from about 91 beats per minute to about 105 beats per minute.

The scientists used one of the stressed samples, along with two clean pieces of cloth, to train the dogs to find the stressed smell. Then came the challenge- the dogs had three choices: a sample from a calm person, a stressed sample from that same person, and a clean piece of cloth. In all, the dogs did 720 of these tests. They correctly identified the stressed sample about 94% of the time.

32. What can we learn from the second paragraph?

A. The smell- testing device was made by Clara. B. Clara Wilson was an expert in training dogs.

C. The four dogs concentrated on the experiment. D. The experiment was carried out step by step.

33. How does the third paragraph develop?

A. By comparison.                     B. By giving examples.

C. By stating the process.                D. By showing research findings.

34. What was the challenge for the dog?

A. Hundreds of tests.                   B. A clean piece of cloth,

C. The sample from the same person.      D. The sample from different persons.

35. What's the best title for the text?

A. Dogs' Special Ability Proves Useful     B. Scientists Train Dogs To Tell Smells .

C. An Experiment about Smell Shocks Us   D. Scientists Learn That Dogs Can Smell Stress

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。

I was walking on the shore when I suddenly heard someone crying. It just drew my attention and I began to look around. Suddenly I saw a little child sitting on a rock who was crying. It was around twelve at night. “Why is he here? Why is he crying?" I wondered. And above all I couldn' t see anyone around him, for he was too small to be alone. I approached him, initially he was frightened but I calmed him down and gave him a chocolate to eat. From the way he ate the chocolate I could make this out that he was very hungry.

I felt pity on him, who was a litle boy around seven years old. His clothes were all . torn. Now he was quite comfortable with me and I asked why he was crying. He told me to look at those waves in the sea and asked how I felt about them. I said they were beautiful. But he made an angry face and said he hated them , because these waves took his parents away. He was just five and since then he started wandering in this unknown city. No one loved him. These words“No one loved him”just took me into a flashback.

I suddenly recollected the dark memories of my life. I recalled that I was an orphan(孤儿) and how a couple adopted me when I was four years old. They did a lot for me, because of them today I am the engineer of the biggest shipping company. They were in a sense my true parents but I was so unfortunate that I lost them in an accident nearly three years ago. I remembered how I always wanted to thank them for what all they did for me but I couldn't. I felt like this lttle boy was at the same situation like mine when I was a four- year old little kid.

注意:

1.续写词数应为150左右;

2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

Now it was my turn 1 told the lttle boy about my lttle old sad story and what I am today.

Now there was a different kind of peace that we both could feel on this shore._____________
