However, there' s a reason why you find a dog' s stare so attractive. That sweet stare actually causes the release of a particular hormone, or chemical messenger in the body. This hormone creates feelings of affection in humans. The same thing happens to dogs when people look back at them. Scientists believe this helps people and their four-legged friends bond, or feel connected. Scientists have wondered what causes dogs to lovingly stare at their owners. To find out, a team of researchers from Azabu University in Japan studied 30 owners and their dogs.
The researchers found that after the pets and their owners spent half an hour together, both showed a rise in oxytocin (催产素). One key role of this hormone in many animals is to promote bonding, like that between a mother and newborn. The increase of oxytocin didn' t happen, though, when scientists repeated the experiment with wolves and the humans who had raised them.
A second experiment also found that if dogs were given oxytocin, they looked at their owners longer. Scientists aren' t sure exactly why, but this reaction occurred only with female dogs. Their owners' oxytocin levels also rose as a result.
The result of these experiments might help answer an age-old question: How did the fearsome wolf ancestor of modern dogs turn into man' s best friend? Takefumi Kikusui, an animal scientist who worked on the study, thinks that the change happened when dogs first became domestic (驯养的).
According to Kikusui, there may have been a small group of wild dogs that were naturally friendlier. " Humans are very sensitive to eye contact. By using this special communication tool, the dogs are able to win over our hearts. If they are more likely to make eye contact, it would be easier for them to bond with dog owners," Kikusui said.
(1)、According to Paragraph1, people say " Awww " to ____.A、make the dog stare at them B、express their love for the dogs C、draw the dogs' attention away D、warn the dogs not to approach them(2)、According to the passage, oxytocin can ____.A、reduce animals' pain of giving birth B、motivate animals' desires to protect others C、help animals to develop a better relationship D、enable animals to survive more easily from dangers(3)、We can infer from Paragraph 3 that ____.A、dogs given oxytocin react differently B、female dogs are more popular among humans C、oxytocin helps dogs become man' s best friends D、wolves are not likely to be friends with humans(4)、The underlined words " the change" in Paragraph 4 refer to that ____.A、dogs and wolves are best friends B、wolves begin to bond with humans C、dogs became friends with humans D、dogs were domesticated by humans(5)、What' s the purpose of the passage?A、To call on humans to be friendly to dogs. B、To give advice on how to get along with dogs. C、To introduce the evolution process of wild dogs. D、To explain why humans and dogs are connected.19. 阅读理解Recently my friend invited me to her residential hall, which is an African-American themed hall. They have lots of meetings and outings there. So I thought it would be fun. On this particular day they were having a pancake breakfast, just a time to mix. I was excited to be there, too.
I walked in at a time when the mini-party was at its peak. I found my friend; excitedly, we hugged and she led me to a seat in the back. We sat there for some time. I sensed some sort of discrimination. I wondered, were we just isolating ourselves or were we facing discrimination?
My friend' s breakfast came in first, and it was a plate full of colors. My mouth watered. I have always liked rainbow dishes: they make me hungry. She let me pick pancakes and fruit; we ate and only then began to talk.
The black American contemporary music was extremely loud. Some boys and girls were beating the tables and some guys on the stage were dancing in what looked 1ike a kind of competition.
We talked about various subjects: hair, boys, shoes and books. And then we got to it. " What do African Americans think of Africans?"
We argued. I told her I thought African Americans were haughty. Why did they sideline us? When we met in a narrow passage and our eyes met, they quickly looked aside before we greeted. Why? Weren' t we all black? I mean, wasn' t this exactly the reason why there was an African-American themed house to begin with?
Did they look down upon us because they grew up in America and we in Sub-Saharan Africa? Oh yes, I felt this was it! They believed that we were HIV-positive and that the giraffes were right behind our huts.
My friend uttered, " No! " And then she continued:
"I also thought so at one point but after living with these guys, I got to a different conclusion altogether. These guys are not from Africa. They were not born there and may have never been there. We can' t expect them to naturally like us or bond. We are different. Skin color is the skin color. "
(1)、It can be inferred from Paragraph 2 that the author ____.A、is an African American B、is an American African C、was late for the party D、was crazy about parties(2)、What does the author think of the breakfast?A、Delicious. B、Just so-so. C、A bit salty. D、A little sweet.(3)、The underlined word " haughty' ' in Paragraph 6 is closest in meaning to" ____" .A、kind-hearted B、modest C、fashionable D、proud(4)、What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?A、They had a good time at the party. B、They turned down the music for me. C、Some of them broke the tables. D、They had a competition at the party.(5)、Which statement is NOT true according to this text?A、The author was brought up in Sub-Saharan Africa. B、The friend had the same idea as the author before. C、The African Americans are born in America. D、The African Americans have nothing in common with Africans.20. 阅读理解Amy Chua is the author of " Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother. " In the book, Chua, also a professor at Yale Law School, states her child-bringing-up method learned from her parents moving here from China years ago: no sleepovers, no television, no grades lower than an A.
" We guessed her book would cause much disagreement," Wang Feifei, editor at CITIC Publishing House, told the reporter. " We don' t take it as a traditional parenting book, largely because it involves cross-cultural conflict. " The book has been available online since Mid-January and ranked No. 80 in sales on Joyo. com, a Chinese version of Amazon. It is to receive wider distribution (发行) at bookstores after the Feb. 3 Chinese New Year holiday.
The book has struck a nerve with Americans, especially American mothers. An article published earlier this month in the Wall Street Journal, called Why Chinese Mothers are Better, lit a strong reaction (the article now has close to 8,000 comments and most of them are critical, many of them completely unfriendly).
And that' s just what she did on Tuesday night' s show " The Colbert Report. " The host Stephen Colbert put Chua on the spot. " People have accused you of saying that the Chinese way of raising a child is better to what Western mothers do. True or false?" he asked. " Uh… false," Chua replied, her voice uncertain. Colbert seized the opportunity to point out Chua' s inconsistency (不一致). " So you raised your children in a worse way?" Chua made a set of defensive talking points, some of them more convincing than others. Her arguments in defense of strict parenting were " I think if you give a 5-or 8-year-old free choice, I think that' s going to be video games. " Chua thinks that anyone can be what she calls a " Chinese Mother" ; all you have to do is to demand hard work, determination and discipline from your children. " I think they are fundamental American values. "
(1)、What is Amy Chua' s method of bringing up her children like according to the passage?A、Very open. B、Very loose. C、Completely scientific. D、Very strict.(2)、What can we infer from the second paragraph?A、The book is on sale since mid-January. B、In February more people will buy the book. C、The book is a traditional parenting book. D、Joyo. com is a Chinese version of Amazon.(3)、From the third paragraph, we will know ____.A、American mothers admire Chinese Mothers B、Chinese mothers are better than American mothers C、many Americans dislike Tiger mother' s method D、American parenting is completely different from Tiger mother' s(4)、What does the underlined word " they" mean in the last paragraph?A、American values. B、Free choices for children. C、Hard work, determination and discipline. D、Parenting methods.(5)、How did Chua defend herself when questioned by Stephen Colbert?A、Explaining her parenting methods with American values. B、Taking two children' s stories for example. C、Talking about her own experience in raising children. D、Proving disadvantages of video games to children.四、 任务型阅读

How do you keep a library when you' ve got no room for your books? With rising rents and record numbers of young people having to move with their parents, it' s clear that we are a moving generation.
As a student in Leeds I moved three times in four years; in London it was seven times in three years. Regularly having to load our possessions into laundry bags and boxes takes a lot of our finance and energy, but the effect on our book collections is rarely considered.
Keeping a collection of beloved books in a damp flat with no shelves, which you' ll probably have to move out of in six months' time, is a challenge. Deciding which books to keep and which to reject becomes increasingly difficult. Do you hold on to the books you know you' ll reread or do you keep the to-be-read pile intact (完好无损的) ?
Donating books to a charity shop or local school may be virtuous, but when you haven' t had time to read them since your last move, it becomes depressing. There' s a copy of Much Ado About Nothing I' ve been moving around with for nearly a decade because it is the only piece of Shakespeare in the marketplace.
"Just buy a Kindle! " you might argue — but for many people, books are more than just books. They offer us an emotional connection to the past, to the person who gave them to us. They are a way to brighten up a dark flat, they are a link to home; they are the hardest thing to move and the most enjoyable thing to unpack.
So what if you are already facing your second move this year and can' t bear the thought of pensioning off more of your beloved books? You start reading more. Read all the books in your current bedroom and work out if they' re worth the trip; give away as many books as you can; leave books with trusted friends to be reclaimed at a later point. Start looking at your books creatively.
(1)、Why has the moving generation appeared? (no more than 15 words)(2)、While moving, why do people often ignore their book collections? (no more than 10 words)(3)、What makes the author keeps a copy of Much Ado About Nothing? (no more than 10 words)(4)、What does the underlined phrase pensioning off in the last paragraph mean? (no more than 3 words)(5)、What would you do with your books when you have to move? Give a persuasive reason. (no more than 25 words)五、 书面表达
