        "BANG! " the door caused a reverberation(回声). It was just standing there, with father standing on one side, and me on the other side.

        We were both in great anger. "Never set foot in this house again! "father stormed. With tears welling up in my eyes, I rushed out of the flat and ran along the street.

        The street lights were shining, causing rather sad feelings. I walked aimlessly.

        A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me. I felt as if I saw childhood from another space: happy and carefree(无忧无虑的).

        But now... I don t know whether it is because I have grown up or because dad is getting old. We differ in our ways of thinking. We are just like two people coming from two different worlds. It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened.

        I wandered the streets, without a destination in mind. My heart was frozen on this hot summer night. As I walked on, there were fewer and fewer people on the streets, until I had only the street lights to keep me company. When I finally reached the high-rise apartment block in which I lived, I saw that the light was still on.

        I thought to myself: "Is father waiting for me, or is he still angry with me?"

        In fact, it was nothing. Perhaps, dad was throwing away some of his old stamps. Perhaps thought they were useless. I never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps.

        All the lights were off except father's.

        Dad was always like this. Maybe he didn't know how to express himself. After shouting at me, he never showed any pity or any moments of regret. This was how he always was. He has been a leader for so long that telling everyone else what to do has become his second nature.

        The light was still on. "Am I wrong?"I whispered, maybe... With the key in my hand, I was as nervous as I had ever been. At last, I decided to open the door. As soon as I opened the door, tears ran down my cheeks. I suddenly realized that the iron door that I had imagined between us did not exist at all. love-it's second to none.

    (1)、Which of the following can replace the underlined part in Paragraph 2?
    A、Shouted in relief. B、Jumped in sadness. C、Burst out crying. D、Burst into anger.
    (2)、What does"the iron door" between us actually refer to?
    A、Their different characters. B、Their misunderstandings. C、The iron door between their rooms. D、The fathers rudeness.
    (3)、In the authors eyes which of the following can be used to describe his father?
    A、Stubborn. B、Cool. C、Selfish. D、Uninterested
    (4)、What actually made the iron door open in the end?
    A、The sons regret. B、The son's giving in to his father. C、The love between the father and the son. D、The light that was on until late in the night.

        Many people believe that language belongs to human beings. However, cats have developed a language not for each other, but for the human beings who have them as pets.

        When communicating with each other, cats “talk” with a system of signals. Their tails, rather than any kind of “speech”, act as an important way to express themselves. They also touch each other to express s their feelings. With other cats, they will use their voices only to express pain. Unbelievable, all of that changes when a human walks into the room. Cats use many different kinds of vocal (声音的) expressions when they communicate with a person. Since these vocal expressions are not used to communicate with other cats, it seems that cats developed this “language” to communicate with their human owners.

        This fact is shown more clearly when watching rooms that have only one cat and those with several cats. An only cat is usually very vocal, since the only creature(动物)around with whom the cat can communicate is its owner. Cats with other cats, though, are much quieter. If they want to have a conversation, they only need go to other cats and communicate in their natural way.

        Since cats learned to meow(喵喵叫)for the only purpose of communicating with human owners should take the time to learn what their different meows mean. If an owner knows, to name just a few examples, which meow means the cat is hungry, which means the cat wants to be petted, and which means the cat wants to have a little “conversation”, the relationship between cat and owner will be closer.

    (1)、If a cat among other cats finds part of its body hurts, it may express its pain with its________.
    A、tail B、eyes C、voice D、head
    (2)、When a human enters a room full of cats, they________.
    A、begin to use vocal expressions B、use their tails to show love C、stop making any noise an D、stop communicating with each other
    (3)、What are cat owners advised to do?
    A、Encourage cats to talk with each other. B、Communicate more with cats. C、Learn to meow in different ways. D、Teach cats to understand human language.
    (4)、What is the text mainly about?
    A、Communication among cats B、pets' different expressions. C、Advice on keeping pets D、The language of cats.

        A warm drink of milk before bed has long been the best choice for those wanting nights sleep. But now a study has found it really does help people nod off-if it is milked from a cow at night.

        Researchers have discovered that" night milk" contains more melatonin(褪黑激素) which has been proven to help people feel sleepy and reduce anxiety.

        The study, by researchers from Seoul, South Korea, involved mice being fed with dried milk powder made from cows milked both during the day and at night.

        Those given night milk, which contained 10 times the amount of melatonin, were less active and less anxious than those fed with the milk collected during daytime, according to the study published in The Journal of Medicinal Food.

        Night milk quickened the start of sleep and caused the mice to sleep longer.

        While the effect of cows milk harvested at different time has not been tested on humans up to now, taking melatonin drugs has been suggested to those who are struggling to fall asleep at night.

        Early studies have also showed that milk can be excellent for helping sleep because of containing Ca., which helps people to relax.

        Milk is also sugar-free and additive-free(不含添加物的) with experts advising skimmed (脱脂的) milk as the best choice before bed as it is the least fattening. The more fat you take in before bedtime, the greater burden you will put on your body at night.
