"Have you checked the oil in the car?" my father used to say to me, his way of "Hello, hope you are well." Sometimes our phone calls would begin with a question about the oil and end with a question about the oil, with not a lot in between.
Fathershavealot oflovetogive,but it'softenoffered by meansofpractical advice.Inmyexperience:
It's mostly aboutmy car."How's thecar running?" "Didyou getit serviced?"My car梐nold greenToyota Corona bought for $500梬as where my father showed his love.

Listen closely enough and the phrase "I loveyou"can be heard in the slightlylonger "Icouldcome aroundSaturday and repair your chair."The words "You made my lifebetter from the moment you were born" may be hardly heard, but the main meaning is there in the more common "I'll hold the ladder while you get the leavesdown from the roof."

corner on a cold morning to say goodbye. "Highwaysare dangerous," he said, "sodon't try overtaking anything faster than a horse and buggy.And take a break every two hours.And every time you stop for gas, youreallyshouldchecktheoil."Atthetimewethoughthisspeechwasprettyfunnyandwouldsing
"horse-and-buggy" every time I tried to overtake some other speeding cars.

Sharks may be able to smell blood from miles away, but they probably don't know how red it is. It is likelythat theyonly seetheworldinblack and whiteaccording toastudy thatis thefirstto lookinto sharks' visual systems.
AteamattheUniversityofWesternAustraliastudiedthevisualsystemsofmanydifferentspeciesof
sharks and what they have found is diversity in eye design that mirrors the ecological and behavioral diversity of the shark species. The team looked at the retinal cells of 17 species of sharks caught from Queensland andWesternAustralia and found out that the cells are responsible for sharks' color blindness.
Accordingtothestudy,theseanimalsarecolor-blindduetothelightreceptorstheyhavegotintheir
eyes.There are twomain types of light-sensitive cells to allow animals to see: rod cells（杆细胞）help measurebrightnessbecausetheyarehighlysensitivetolightandallownightvisionbutcannottellcolors
apart,whilevarioustypesofconecells（锥细胞）helpdistinguishcolors. Theylookedat thestructureof
sharks' rod and cone cells in the retina. Humaneyes come withred, green and blue cone variations, while sharks appear to have just one kind of cone cell.
Thestudysuggeststhatcontrastagainstthebackground,ratherthancoloritself,mightbemore
important for object detection by sharks. Costumes that camouflage swimmers' bodies in sea water are less likely to draw a shark'sattention than ones with bright, solid colors that emphasize their outline. "It'sthe high contrast against the water rather than the color itselfthat is probably attractive to sharks," said Professor Nathan Hart who led the study.
28. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A. Stressing the importance of the study.
B. Showing the features of sharks' eye design.
C. Giving the process and the result of the study.
D. Telling the functions of sharks' visual systems.
29. What leads to sharks' blindness to color according to Paragraph 3?
A.Their less sensitive rod cells.B. Their lack of various cone cells.
C.Their inability to tell apart colors.D. Their strong sensitivity to brightness.
30. What can be inferred in the last paragraph?
A. The color plays a key part in sharks' detecting objects.
B. You should make your outline stand out in the sea for your safety.
C. You should be dressed in bright color to avoid sharks' attention in the sea.
D. Sharks are more interested in sharp contrast against the water rather than your body.
31. What'sthe writing purpose of the text?
A.To challenge a traditional belief.B. To inform us a scientific discovery.
C.To amuse us with interesting information.D. To raise our awareness of protecting wild animals.
D

On behalf of all the students here, I welcome you to the opening ceremony of this annual sports meeting. I’d like to take this chance to thank teachers and parents for supporting us and thank my fellow students for accepting challenges!

At last, I sincerely hope everyone will have a pleasant time today. Thank you very much.
第二节
Everyone was sad when they left Pinky at the pond, even Sara’s father. But he tried to convince Sara that Pinky was fine. Walking towards the car, Sara looked over her shoulder and saw Pinky standing alone. The other ducks were swimming around in circles, looking at Pinky. To Sara, it seemed that they were trying to identify the strange animal. They didn’t recognize Pinky as a duck. Worried about Pinky, Sara dreamed of Pinky being bullied by other ducks the whole night.
The next morning, when looking out of the kitchen window, Sara couldn’t believe her eyes! There was Pinky, happily walking around on the grass. Thrilled at what she saw, she kept asking herself,” How did she make it?” After all, it was two miles away and he managed to walk back through the city street. Incredible! But her parents drove Pinky back to the pond again regardless of her request. The following morning, there was Pinky again on the grass! Seeing Pinky again, her father, waving his arms about wildly, moved his lips without saying anything. Meanwhile, Sarah, overjoyed, hugged Pinky tightly, tears streaming down her cheeks.

W：I didn’t think about that. You’re right. We should go with her, as she’s been with us longer.
M：Let’s inform Mr. Duncan that we’ve reached a decision.

原文】W: At lunchtime, I watched that good cooking show, Chef’s Special, and I’ve got some great ideas for some meals we can try out for dinner.
M: Well, that sounds good. So what’s on your list?
W: Let’s see. We’ve got some meat at home already, but we need something for a salad. We need some tomatoes, carrots and green onions.
M: Sounds very healthy.
W: The apples look really good today. Let’s pick up some, too. Plus we need to get some bananas. Would you like some milk or cheese?
M: No, they are not my taste.
W: Then can you get a box of ice cream?
M: Sure, I love ice cream best.
W: I think that’s everything we need. Let’s go home and cook dinner.

【原文】M: Hello, Freya. Mountain biking is a popular sport among teenagers but there are fewer girls doing it. Am I right?
W: Yes, although we’re growing in numbers. When I was 13, my dad bought my brother a mountain bike but I was given an ordinary one. I really wanted to join my brother, so in the end my uncle got one for me.
M: And now you’re a winner?
W: Yes. I just won the Regional Championship. It was a difficult course with lots of rocks. At one point I thought I wasn’t going to win. I was ahead and then I had to slow down because a photographer jumped out from behind a tree.
M: What do you think is the most important before a race?
W: Well, there’s much to do. Take plenty of exercise to keep fit. Check the route in advance. And the most important I think is that you must make sure everything’s working on the bike. If there’s anything wrong with the bike，I’ll be in trouble. And the clothes shouldn’t slow you down so they need to be tight. They might feel a bit uncomfortable when you first put them on，but you will soon get used to it. I’m not bothered about not looking pretty—I just want to win.

【原文】W: Hello, this is Greenhill Studies College. I’m leaving this message in answer to your questions about the Business Studies course. Firstly, you asked when the course starts. It begins on the 12th of June, and finishes on the 11th of July. At the beginning of the course, there are no lectures because we spend time watching business videos. So you won’t need to bring anything for the class, as everything is provided. Don’t forget, however, that although you can bring your own notebook computer if you wish, mobile phones are not allowed in the classroom. I’m afraid these can disturb the classes. You said you’re coming by car. Well, as it’s only a short course, you can use the visitor’s car park which is just beside the main entrance. We’re only a short walk away. Just turn right after the Science Center, cross the staff car park, and you’ll see the door to the Business Studies Department in front of you. Finally, you also wanted to know if it’s possible to attend a language course while you are here. Well, the answer is yes, but we only have room on our Italian classes. Oh, no, actually...there’s one place on the Spanish course too. We usually offer French, Chinese, German and Japanese as well, but there aren’t enough students for those classes this summer. If you want to apply for the course, please sign up before the 5th of June. Thank you.
