She asked Lily if she could keep an eye on the dog. Lily said that she could watch it only for the day. Wendy took photos of the dog and printed off 300 FOUND fliers(传单) ,and put them in mailboxes. At the same time, Lily went to the dollar store and bought some pet supplies, warning her two sons not to fall in love with the dog. At the time, Lily’s son Thomas was 10 years old, and Jack, who was recovering from a heart operation, was 19 years old.Four days later Lily was still looking after the dog. She called it Riley. When she arrived home from work, the dog threw itself against the screen door and barked madly at her. As soon as she opened the door, Riley rushed into the boys’ room where Lily found Jack suffering a heart attack. Riley ran over to Jack, but as soon as Lily bent over to help him the dog went silent.“If it hadn’t come to get me , the doctor said Jack would have died,” Lily reported to a local newspaper. At this point, no one had called to claim the dog, so Lily decided to keep it.The next morning Wendy got a call. A man named Adam recognized his lost dog and called the number on the flier. Wendy started crying, and told him, “That dog saved my friend’s son.”Adam drove to Lily’s house to pick up his dog, and saw Thomas and Jack crying in the window.

But that night when my dad tried to cheer me up, my laugh turned into crying.So it came as no surprise to learn that researchers believe crying and laughing come from the same part of the brain. Just as laughing has many health advantages, scientists are discovering that so, too, does crying.Whatever it takes for us to reduce pressure is important to our emotional health, and crying seems to work well. One study found that 85 percent of women and 73 percent of men report feeling better after crying.Besides, tears attract help from other people. Researchers agree that when we cry, people around us become kinder and friendlier and they are more ready to provide support and comfort. Tears also enable us to understand our emotions better; sometimes we don’t even know we’re very sad until we cry. We learn about our emotions through crying, and then we can deal with them.Just as crying can be healthy, not crying holding back tears of anger, pain or suffering can be bad for physical health, Studies have shown that too much control of emotions can lead to high blood pressure, heart problems and some other illnesses. If you have a health problem, doctors will certainly not ask you to cry. But when you feel like crying, don’t fight it. It’s a natural and helthy emotional response.1．Why didn’t the author cry when her grandmother died?A．Because she didn’t love her grandmother.B．Because she was too shy to cry at that time.C．Because her father did not want her to feel too sad.D．The author doesn’t tell us.2．It can be inferred（推断）from the text that _________?A．there are two ways to keep healthy.B．crying does more good to health than laughing.C．emotional health has close connection with physical health.D．Crying and laughing play the same roles.3．According to the author, Which of the following statements is TRUE?A．Crying is the best way to get help from others.B．Fighting back tears mat cause some health problems,C．We will never know our deep feelings unless we cry.D．We must cry if we want to reduce pressure.4．What might be the best suitable title for the text?A．Power of Tears        B. How to keep healthy    C．Why we cry          D. A new Scientific Discovery DThe famous scientist Stephen Hawking spoke at a science festival in 2017, “We are running out of space and the only places to go to other worlds... Spreading out (扩张) may be the only thing that saves us from ourselves. I believe that humans need to leave the earth.”Hawking was not alone in this opinion. Many scientists feel that the only way for humans to go far into the future is to take control of other planets. Mars (火星) is one of the most attractive （有吸引力的）places, humans have thought about. NASA, the United Arab Emirates, the private company Space X, and the organization Mars One all have plans to send humans there. “Either we spread the earth to other planets. Or we risk dying out,” Space X founder Elon Musk said.___▲     The most common argument (争论) against spreading is that it’s just too expensive or dangerous. It will take a lot of money and other effort just to get people there, let alone set up a place for them to live. It’s not even clear if humans could survive on Mars.Maybe all the time and money people would pour into a Mars programme would be better spent on more urgent ones here on the earth, like dealing with a problem while staying here on the earth would be much easier and less expensive than surviving on a new planet.What’s more, moving to a new planet could harm or destroy（破坏）anything that already lives there. Mars seems deserted, but it could possibly have microbial（微生物的）life. Human visitors may destroy this life or change or damage the environment on Mars forever. Some feel that’s too much of a risk to take.(  )1. The underlined sentence “Hawking was not alone in this opinion.” means_________.A. Many people like Hawking, so he was not lonelyB. Hawking was a great scientist with different opinionsC. Hawking’s opinion was widely known by many peopleD.Many people shared the same opinion with Hawking(  )2. Which of the following is the best to fill in ___▲    in the passage?A. Then moving to Mars or other planets is on the plan.B. it is easy for humans to move to Mars or other planets.C. Most of the scientists from different countries support Elon’s ideas.D. But not everyone agrees moving to Mars or other places is such a great plan.(  )3. According to the passage, the reasons why some people are against spreading out toMars are___________.①There will be more space rubbish.②It will cost too much money and effort.③People will put themselves at risk if they live on Mars.④Humans may destroy the possible life and environment on Mars.⑤The earth is more comfortable for humans to live on.A.①②⑤      B.①③④     C.②③④     D.②④⑤(  ) 4. What is the best title of the passage?.A. Spread Out or Not      B. Mars or other PlanetsC. Stephen Hawking’s Prediction     D. Living a Better Life on the Earth. 四、词汇运用（本题有15小题，每小题1分；共计15分）A. 用方框内所给单词的适当形式填空。每次仅用一次。private          laugh            fight          art             copy1.
