My wife always wanted a Vizsla, s when we gt the huse, the garden and everything srted, we did sme research and fund a lvely breeder based in Sctland. He was in charge f everything, s a few mnths g by and the next thing I knw, we’ve gt a puppy!
I’ve grwn up with animals all my life, and I’m s glad I have. I lve the fact that I was never afraid f any animals. Althugh yu d bviusly have t be careful when intrducing children t a dg they dn’t knw, because yu dn’t knw hw it’s ging t behave, it always saddens me when I see children scared when they walk past Pedr. I think it’s great fr kids t learn hw t lk after an animal.
And bviusly fr us, as a family, it’s brilliant because we take Pedr fr s many walks. It’s a bit f a family bnding experience getting ut in the fresh air; taking Pedr fr a walk multiple times a day is just really lvely. Meanwhile, the mst rewarding, I think, is just seeing hw amazing he is with the kids. He is s calm, s prtective, s lving, and we are his wrld.
I think the mst challenging aspects with Pedr were when he was a puppy. He was pretty hard wrk. He was never aggressive, but he was quite bitey as puppies are, cnstantly pulling ut yur clthes and putting hles in them, which is very annying. He chewed the furniture-my sfas are barely standing up; their wden legs are almst in pieces. Obviusly, the dg training in the huse was quite stressful and his jumping at strangers in the park and running ff was always quite scary.
As a new puppy wner, yu’re verladed with advice frm scial media, magazines, ther dg wners and friends, s finding a surce f infrmatin yu trust is s imprtant and can be a real turning pint. I knw what it’s like t be bmbarded with cnflicting infrmatin, s I wuld have really welcmed Ryal Canin’s “One in a Billin” platfrm as a new puppy wner. It’s a ne-stp shp fr new dg wners: a single surce f credible infrmatin that is s helpful in navigating the early stages f yur puppy’s life.
24. What d we knw abut the authr?
A. He is inexperienced in raising pets.
B. He is unsupprtive f his wife’s desire.
C. He feels it a pity that children shy away frm pets.
D. He thinks ne shuld be cautius abut raising pets.
25. Hw des the authr think f Pedr?
A. Dangerus but lyal.B. Adrable but trublesme.
C. Playful and gentle.D. Annying and fierce.
26. What can we infer accrding t paragraph 4?
A. Dgs are man’s best friends.
B. It is wrthless t have a dg.
C. Puppies are unfriendly t humans.
D. It is challenging t train a puppy.
27. What is the purpse f the last paragraph?
A. T recmmend a reliable platfrm.
B. T share an interesting experience.

Air cnditining use has explded in the last 30 years. Accrding t U. S. Census data in 1993, just abut three-quarters f single family hmes in the Midwest had air cnditining. In the West and Nrtheast, it was just abut half. Nw, all regins are pushing 100 percent air cnditining cverage. In the Suth, it’s been at abut 100 percent since the early 1990s.
As the cst f air cnditining installatin has gne dwn, and temperatures have gne up, Americans have been ffered an pprtunity fr a steady indr temperature year-rund, regardless f the weather utside. This drive fr cmfrt frces us t discnnect frm what’s happening all arund us. A cnditined climate allws us t cmpletely ignre the changing seasns and ur warming planet. Only listening t peple wh agree with us — r trying t silence thse wh disagree — creates ur wn, individually cnditined realities.
New Yrk University prfessr and scial psychlgist Jnathan Haidt shwed hw the cmfrts f cnveniences “atmize” ur scial structures. Each new technlgy that makes ur lives easier als makes us less reliant n ther peple. Haidt’s big fcus is n smartphnes and scial media, as explred in his recent bk, but ur sciety was cracking ff int smaller and smaller pieces lng befre we had the rbts in ur pckets.
Cars allwed us t shp in ther twns, reducing reliance n lcal businesses. A televisin set gave smething fr peple t d in the evenings, reducing the need t hang ut with neighbrs, and by extensin, erding cmmunity structures and institutins (ften called “third places”, in cntrast t wrk and hme). Air cnditining allwed us t stay inside in the heat, limiting a play-based childhd where kids run arund with each ther and make their wn fun.
What if we all turned ff the air cnditining fr a bit, pened ur windws, and truly experienced life as it was happening, nt what we manufactured it t be? We might be a little less cmfrtable, but maybe a little mre cnnected.
28. What can we infer frm the first tw paragraphs?
A. Air cnditining easily shapes ur individual persnality.
B. Air cnditined huses are mre cmfrtable than thers.
C. Air cnditining can reduce ur cnnectin with the wrld.
D. Air cnditining is accessible t every husehld in the US.
29. Why des the authr mentin Haidt?
A. T prmte his recent bk.
B. T praise human self-reliance.
C. T illustrate technlgical advances.
D. T reveal the harm f air cnditining.
30. What des the wrd “erding” underlined in paragraph 4 refer t?
A. Cnstructing. B. Destrying. C. Aviding. D. Imprving.
31. Which f the fllwing is the best title fr the text?
A. Turn ff Air Cnditining fr a Bit
B. Experience Yur Life t the Fullest
C. Keep Away frm Air Cnditined Huses
D. Never Create Our Own Cnditined Realities

There are functining steam railways in ther cuntries: turists in France can g fr a ride in Brittany; s can visitrs travelling t the Dandenng Ranges in Australia. But n ther cuntry has a heritage railway sectr anywhere near as energetic as the UK’s, where mre than 170 services crss arund 600 miles f track and call at 460 statins.
Just a few years after the first f these railways pened at Talyllyn in nrth Wales, in 1951, a fictinal Welsh steam engine became the main character in the children’s televisin serial Ivr the Engine. On lines riginally built fr slate quarries (石板采石场), nrth Wales still has the biggest grup f steam railways, but they exist in all fur natins f the UK, typically perating seasnal timetables in turist areas. These railways are living museums with statins decrated in perid style. Sme staff wear cstumes t.
Up t 95% f the 18.5m jurneys n heritage railways each year are taken by dmestic turists. They we their ppularity t a cmbinatin f nstalgia (怀旧), enjyment f the cuntryside and enthusiasm fr the ld engines.
Railways are expensive t run, and the first steam preservatin enthusiasts recgnized that they wuld need vlunteers t make their dream f a revival cme true. This reliance n vlunteers is partly due t cuts in budgets frm lcal authrities and ther funders. But heritage railways are a gd example f what can be achieved by a cmbined paid and vluntary wrkfrce. As well as the ecnmic cntributin that the railways make t rural areas, there is evidence that vlunteering can have beneficial effects n peple as well.
The railways will need t respnd, like the rest f the sciety, t envirnmental plicies. The destructive impact f greenhuse gases is an bvius challenge t a sectr that trades n an image f cal-pwered transprt. Electric railway engines are being used fr maintenance, t bring emissins dwn, and sme railways are active in wildlife cnservatin. There will need t be further adaptatin dwn the line. That the railways dn’t stand still has always been part f their appeal especially n rainy days in the summer hlidays.
32. Hw are the UK’s steam railways different frm ther cuntries'?
A. They are active acrss the cuntries.
B. They serve as turist attractins.
C. They are mainly pwered by steam.
D. They use small amunts f energy.
33. Why des the authr mentin Ivr the Engine?
A. T spread knwledge f the classic serial.
B. T intrduce the rigin f steam engines.
C. T shw the ppularity f steam railways.
D. T share a childhd memry f travelling.
34. What can we infer frm paragraph 4?
A. Lcal fficials dn’t use ld means f transprt.
B. Ecnmic grwth depends n individual effrts.
C. Peple can’t affrd t travel by heritage railway.
D. Vlunteers help t keep heritage railways alive.
35. What is the authr’s attitude twards heritage railways?
A. Indifferent.B. Dubtful.C. Appreciative.D. Negative.

A recent study in the jurnal Marine Eclgy Prgress Series has a great influence when it cmes t the questin f hw sharks will interact with humans as climate change cntinues t wrsen. It predicts a wrld where humans and sharks will encunter mre ften than the present case.
Cntrary t ppular media descriptins that speak ill f sharks, humans will nt be in that much truble when this happens. 36 , in which millins f inncent sharks are the big lsers due t human activity beynd their cntrl.
First, let’s explre why sharks and humans will prbably be running int each ther’s wrld mre ften. One reasn is the field f urban eclgy and, specifically, hw different species respnd when they cme acrss humans. 37 ; think f raccns (浣熊) that search fr fd frm rubbish and pigens (鸽子) that stay n statues in majr cities all ver the planet. On the ther hand, there are urban aviders, r animals that avid majr cities ut f self-prtectin; 38 .
The researchers initially believed that sharks wuld als be urban aviders. 39 . Scientists learned that space use patterns f tracked sharks were cnsistent with thse f urban adapters.
40 . The reality, hwever, is that humans have driven sharks t the edge f extinctin while shark attacks n peple remain quite rare. Humans are nt sharks’ preferred prey (猎物), and the likelihd f increased human-shark interactins causes far mre f a threat t sharks than t humans.
A．Surprisingly, that’s nt the case
B．It will instead be a heartbreaking tragedy
C．Humans have a lng lasting fear against sharks
D．Therefre, they think the sharks wn’t get t clse t us
E．Large animals like wlves and muntain lins fall int this categry
F．Tigers and lins are s dangerus that we keep them away frm ur cities
G．If a species thinks its members can get alng just great with us, they are knwn as urban adapters

My lve fr dance began when I was very yung and I wuld dream t be a star dancer frm time t time. With the drama festival appraching, the schl’s drama club had released a ntice fr the dancer auditin (试镜) fr The Twelve Dancing Princesses. And f curse I was the first ne t sign up.
As I left the stage after my auditin at schl, I culd feel it. The pwer. The future. I knew that smeday when dancers’ magazines wrte abut me, they wuld say this mment was when my rise t a star began.
My ballet slippers hurt my feet, but I figured that was helpful. In The Twelve Dancing Princesses, the princesses danced all night s they prbably had ft pain, t. My perfrmance was mre genuine because f my pain. I needed t shw my devtin even when I wasn’t n stage, s I apprached Mr. Ellisn, the drama club advisr. He tld me that casting (角色分配) will be psted tmrrw.“ Thank yu, sir,” I said, using the almst British prnunciatin f Hllywd stars in the 1940s. I was s sure that Mr. Ellisn wuld cast me as a princess.
The next mrning, I went t read the cast list. The twelve princesses were first, by number. I scanned frm One t Twelve, but nne by me. At the bttm f the casting list, my name finally appeared. My rle was a really small ne, an ld wman wh helped a sldier, nt ne f the princesses! I was desperately disappinted. Mr. Ellisn must have made a mistake! N ne else in the schl had my skills r preparatin!.
I fund him in his classrm, but he insisted there was n mistake and emphasized that every rle in a play was imprtant. Unable t accept the fact, I burst int tears. Mr. Ellisn managed t calm me dwn and encuraged me t have a try in the rehearsal (排练).
