It was about 5 am on Saturday when Amanda Tanner and her husband were suddenly awakened by their dog, Axel. When the 1 couple was slow to respond, the dog kept trying to get their 2 . Her husband finally went downstairs and opened the door to let the dog outside, but Axel didn' t 3 .

If something that you' re doing doesn' t challenge you, then it doesn' t change you. You can never see any improvement if you stick to your comfort zone. So challenge the following limits:
Figure out what you' re scared of and do it continuously.
If you' re a salesman, and you' re scared of talking to people personally or over the phone, now, instead of being scared and thinking you' ll fail, spend at least five minutes a day picking up the phone and making a call. Someone may hang up on you.
Eventually, you can look at fear in the eyes and say, " Go on, I' m not scared!"
Take a class for a hobby you' ve been wanting to develop.
Make sure this hobby is not linked to your career; you have to relax and relieve your stress while performing this.
Apart from helping you challenge yourself, taking a class for your hobby may also give you extra income.
Set aside at least nine minutes a day for physical exercise.
You don' t need to go to the gym. Exercise can not only help you maintain your regular weight, but also make you feel better about yourself.
Don' t just limit yourself to your fellow travelers — try to connect with the service staff.
You never know what kind of people they' re going to be. Get out of your house or go online right now to book your class. Start to travel now and learn to challenge yourself.
A. You should do it continuously.
B. But don' t stop on the first try!
C. Go outside and do exercise regularly.
D. We all need some normal stress in our lives, after all.
E. Travel and allow yourself to be interested in new people.
F. Some examples might be cooking, sewing, painting and so on.
G. A simple 9-minute run around your neighborhood can do wonders for yourself.

Like the rest of us, scientists have long suspected the healing capacity of a good hug. Unlike the rest of us, they' ve gone about trying to prove it.
" Laboratory studies suggest that things like hugs help us feel safer. They can also make us less sensitive to physical pain and less reactive when we' re faced with threatening experiences, " says Michael Murphy. He is a research professor in the Department of Psychological Sciences at Texas Tec h University. " This lab work has shown that hugs and other touch behaviors are related to stress. The more stress we have, the more our heart rates and blood pressure go up. At this time, hugs and other forms of personal touch may give off all sorts of feel-good chemicals, so that stress can be reduced."
" There' s a lot that we still need to learn, and there' s a lot we don' t know, " Murphy says. " However, what seems to be rising up is that hugs, as well as other forms of loving and gentle touch, are really powerful. They remind people that they' re cared about and that they have someone in their corner."
" We expect touch. When we were born, we were placed in our mothers' arms almost immediately. In that first year of our life, we spend a lot of time being held by other people. And as we grow up, we seek out hugs and touch as a way of connection. I think what we have lost in the past few years are these really easy opportunities to be reminded of connection."
While he was at Carnegie Mellon, Murphy was the lead author of a hug-centered 2018 article in the scientific journal PLOS One. In a series of interviews with 404 adults over a two-week period, the researchers found that receiving a hug is associated with the attenuation of negative emotions that occur on days with interpersonal conflicts. That is to say, generally, hugs help to reduce the negative impacts that personal conflicts may cause in our daily lives.
(1)、According to the passage, what do laboratory studies suggest about the effects of hugs?A、Hugs can make us more sensitive to physical pain. B、Hugs can increase our heart rates and blood pressure. C、Hugs can reduce stress and release feel-good chemicals. D、Hugs have no impact on our emotional well-being.(2)、What does the underlined word " They" in the 3rd paragraph refer to?A、Only hugs. B、Any forms of touch. C、People who are touched. D、All kinds of loving and gentle touch.(3)、What is the purpose of seeking hugs and touch as we grow up?A、To help us feel connected to others. B、To develop physical strength and coordination. C、To increase sensitivity to interpersonal conflicts. D、To decrease the need for emotional connection.(4)、What is the main idea of the passage?A、Hugs have little impact on our physical well-being. B、Hugs can reduce stress and negative emotions. C、Hugs can only be beneficial during the conflicts. D、Hugs are a way of physical pain relief. -

There was a lot of news related to artificial intelligence, or AI, and machine learning. Among the stories were two dealing with direct competitions between humans and machines.
In one competition, machines that used AI performed better than human beings in a high-level reading test. Two natural language processing tools beat humans in the experiment. One of the tools was built by the American technology company Microsoft. The other was created by Chinese online seller Alibaba Group.
In another competition, a computer took on humans in live, public debates.
The event demonstrated how AI-powered computers are increasingly being developed to think and sound like humans. The organizer of the debates, U. S. technology company IBM, announced split results. It said a majority of those watching said they felt the machine had done more to improve their knowledge of the subject. But, the human got more praise for communicating their ideas.
This year, we also explored the many ways AI and machine learning are now being used. For example, some U. S. judges use machine learning systems to help them decide when, and for how long, criminals should be jailed. The system uses computers to examine data from thousands of court cases.
One fast-growing area of AI is facial recognition, which is increasingly being used for security purposes. Recently, Atlanta' s Hartsfield-Jackson airport became the first in the U. S. to permit passengers to use fa cial recognition technology to get on flights. A Chinese company showed off an AI system it developed to recognize individuals by body shape and walking movements. The system is already being used by Chinese police in Beijing and Shanghai.
In addition, machine learning was used during 2018 to predict results of the World Cup soccer competition. The technology also created artwork that was sold for a large amount of money. And it is being used to help farmers save time and money, while reducing environment-harming chemicals. Other technology systems are being used to follow farm animals and wildlife to collect information on their activities.
(1)、What can we infer from the second paragraph?A、AI is perfect in all aspects. B、Humans will be replaced sooner or later. C、AI is the biggest threat to the human beings. D、AI is more competent than humans in some areas.(2)、Which of the following AI can' t do at present according to the passage?A、Creative thinking. B、Facial recognition. C、Collecting information. D、Predicting results of the games.(3)、What do the last three paragraphs mainly talk about?A、The disadvantages of AI. B、The application of AI. C、The future of AI. D、The experiments of AI.(4)、What' s the attitude of the author to AI?A、Supportive. B、Unclear. C、Doubtful. D、Opposite. -

Johannes Fritz, a biologist, needed to come up with a plan, again, if he was going to prevent his rare and beloved birds from going extinct.
To survive the European winter, the northern bald ibis (秃鹃) — which had once disappeared entirely from the wild on the continent — needs to migrate south for the winter, over the Alps, before the mountains become blocked. But shifting climate patterns have delayed when the birds begin to migrate, and they are now reaching the mountains too late to make it over the peaks, locking them in an icy death trap. Determined to save them, Mr. Fritz decided he would teach the birds a new, safer migration route by guiding them himself in a tiny aircraft. And he was confident he could succeed in this daring, unusual plan —because he had done it before.
Mr. Fritz was his young pupils' only provider of food and love since they' d been just a few days old, and the ibises eagerly followed their teacher. He learned to fly, modifying a tiny aircraft so it would fly at speeds slow enough for his winged students to keep up. In 2004, three years after some experiments, Mr. Fritz led the first flock from Austria to Italy, and has since led 15 such migrations. Over that time, he has rewilded (放归) 277 young ibises, many of which then started to pass the route on to their own young. For now, however, the main worry is getting the birds to follow the aircraft. " While they have a strong bond with their ‘mothers' and follow them around on the ground, flying is more difficult, " Fritz said.
" Fly Away Home was a huge hit with us biologists, " Mr. Fritz said, recalling the 1996 movie in which a Canada geese was led to migrate by an aircraft. When Mr. Fritz claimed he' d do the same with the ibises, he was initially laughed at. But through years of trial and error, he succeeded. He even learned to fly like a bird, he said, laughing with ease. Mr. Fritz' s two sons, both now teenagers, followed their flying father and the migrating birds on the ground, and his family and colleagues witnessed the risks he was taking. But the unexpected risks are " necessary" , Mr. Fritz said.
" It' s not so much a job, " he added, " but my life' s purpose."
(1)、What made Mr. Fritz believe he would make it this time?A、Confidence. B、Experience. C、Bravery. D、Determination.(2)、What is Fritz' s present concern according to paragraph 3?A、Whether the birds can fly after the aircraft. B、Tight schedule to modify a tiny aircraft. C、The extreme weather that prevents flying. D、Limited support from the local government.(3)、How is Mr. Fritz according to the passage?A、Imaginative and out-going. B、Generous and easy-going. C、Purposeful and strong-willed. D、Energetic and open-minded.(4)、What can we know from paragraph 4?A、Mr. Fritz once starred in a film in 1996. B、Mr. Fritz was favored by those around him. C、Mr. Fritz had no difficulty with what he did. D、Mr. Fritz thought what he did was worthwhile. -

12、 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
How can English be learned well? In my view, keeping up with teachers is a good way. Teachers are experienced and their plans are effective. But remember to work in a way that suits you. Keep a notebook to make a record of the mistakes you make —it' ll help you avoid making the same ones later.
The school life may be hard, but you' re not alone. You may be busy studying, but you can show your care by calling your friends or sending short messages.
It' s as important to live well as it is to study well. Going to bed no later than 11: 30 pm is important. You needn' t follow a special diet, but make sure you are eating healthy meals each day.
Having a lot of schoolwork doesn' t mean having to quit other activities. Playing basketball or having a talk with your classmates can relax yourself. Time out is not a waste of time but helps you study more efficiently.
Besides taking the College Entrance Examination, you have other choices for college. Pay attention to the useful information you can find, whether it' s from school, the news media or other sources.
A. Don' t let your friendships die.
B. Your friends are good for your study.
C. If you took notes in class, re-read them.
D. The person who plays well studies well.
E. It puts you in the right state for the next day.
F. Some students even apply for studying abroad.
G. It' s important to learn from past mistakes as well.

13、 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
An earthquake is literally an earth-shattering experience! There you are enjoying an afternoon nap, having a cup of coffee in the morning, or even sleeping on a cold winter night when —WHAM! —the entire crockery (陶器) shelf collapses, and all the plates and cups break into pieces. A painting on the wall nearly knocks you down as it falls.
What should one do in an earthquake? The prime-time (黄金时间的) news gives no warning, nor is there a time of year, like the monsoon (风) season, when an earthquake always occurs. Unlike a tornado or hurricane, there is no known way of predicting an earthquake.
Though about 500, 000 earthquakes occur each year, only 100 of them cause damage! However, an earthquake can strike any time of the day or night, so it needs to be prepared for when you have the misfortune of being caught in the middle of one.
If you' re indoors, stay indoors, unless you' re on the ground floor, where you can easily run outside. The best thing to do if you' re indoors is to hide under a strong piece of furniture like a bed or desk. Do not head for the stairway if you' re living on an upper storey, because stairways can collapse.
If you' re driving, get out of traffic and stop on a wide and open road. Do not stop on a bridge, or in another case, under one. Stay inside your car until the shaking stops. Before you restart driving, look out for fissures (裂缝), breaks in the road, and bumps or cracks. Inside your home, be careful not to turn on the gas until you' re sure the cylinder (气罐) is safe, and there is no leak.
Avoid using your telephone unless there' s an emergency. You could be occupying lines that are needed by other people. Lastly, if you' re not trapped or seriously hurt, do not expect fire fighters, army or police to help you. They may be busy rescuing people in greater need than you!
(1)、What does the underlined word mean in the first paragraph?A、worthwhile B、amazing C、endangered D、earthshaking(2)、Which of the following statements is correct?A、No better way has been found to predict earthquakes yet. B、The monsoon season disorders because of global warming. C、The prime-time news can not receive timely information. D、Earthquakes are accompanied by hurricanes or tornadoes.(3)、Where had you better hide at home in an earthquake?A、On the rooftop. B、Under the stairway. C、Under a table. D、In a wardrobe.(4)、What should we do during an earthquake?A、Hurry up to get out of the car. B、Park away from the bridges. C、Call the police for help at once. D、Turn on gas pipe immediately. -

A woman' s husband divorced her because she spent too much time on the Internet. But she continued to surf the World Wide Web. She did this so often that she forgot to take her children to the doctor or get the kids enough food. Her husband asked the court for the children.
But he needed someone to support her illness. " I had to write a letter to the judge," said Dr. Jonathan Kandell. " The judge did not believe there was such a thing as Internet addiction. "
Is there? Some psychologists say that Internet addiction is real, just like gambling or drug abuse.
At the University of Maryland, a doctor started an Internet addiction support group after he watched a few addicted students nearly failed school.
How can you tell if you have an abnormal pattern of Internet use? Do you need to spend increased amounts of time on the Internet to achieve satisfaction? And when you' re not online, do you have fantasies or dreams about the Internet?
Tyler Johnson, 17, a high school senior in Abbotsford, British Columbia, spends more than six hours a day online and more than an hour reading his email.
Tyler dropped out of school sports, and now, every day after school until 3 or 4 o' clock in the morning, he plays games on the Internet.
Dr. Kandell guesses that many addicts don' t get help because they don' t know they have a problem. " I think we' re about a year away from having people recognize it' s really a problem," he said. " It' s out there. There' s no question. "
(1)、Why did the author mention this divorce case in the first paragraph?A、To stress the value of the professor' s letter. B、To prove that Internet addiction does exist. C、To show the husband' s struggle in marriage. D、To explain the increasing high divorce rate.(2)、Who are likely to have Internet addiction?A、A mother forgetting to cook meals for kids after school. B、An engineer adding time to search for information online. C、A worker making a dream to change the Internet world. D、A freshman having crazy ideas of Internet when not online.(3)、What can we know about Tyler?A、He has an Internet addiction without realizing it. B、His Internet addiction has an effect on his health. C、He has already taken up all his study time online. D、Schools should strictly manage his Internet access.(4)、What is Dr. Kandell' s attitude towards people with Internet addiction?A、They could ignore the effect of Internet addiction. B、They should be forced to quit their bad habit. C、It is a must for them to be aware of the harm. D、Medication is necessary to take control of it. -
15、 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
The first time I realized that I had a love for sports competitions was during the Field Day inelementary school. Small for my age, and more of a bookworm than a sports lover, I had suffered that special humiliation of being picked last for various gym teams. The Field Day, which focused on individual (个体的) skills, was different. In the Softball Throw event, I got my first taste of sporting victory. Credit goes to the example of my first coach, my father. He lifted weights every morning at home. He bought us all baseball gloves and hats, and in the warm months, we spent hours playing catch.
Once I got to sixth grade and switched to private school, our entire student body was assigned to either the Red or the White team. Throughout the year, we competed against each other in various games and exercises for points. I eventually became president of The Committee of Games. I also played on the field hockey team and the basketball team. And at home, playing tennis, skating, skiing and biking were simply normal things we did. During the break time, magazines were also quite popular for us teens. These regularly featured articles on physical exercise. Somehow, my college roommate and I took up the habit of completing Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) exercises every day, a practice that continued into my marriage, when we had no spare money to use to join a gym.
So, though it shocks some of our friends, that early foundation (基础) evolved in adulthood into a sports and fitness focus, considered important even on vacation. I still love reading and the arts, too. As far as I' m concerned, life is the richest with my feet in both worlds.
(1)、What can be inferred about the author' s experience as a child?A、He felt proud to be picked for gym teams. B、His success made his coaches well-known. C、He didn' t like doing sports at all. D、He gained confidence in sports on the Field Day.(2)、Which of the following is NOT the sport that they often do at home?A、Throwing softball. B、Skating. C、Skiing. D、Playing tennis.(3)、Which of the following sentences is true according to the passage?A、The author feels tired from doing exercise though very happy. B、The author has been persisting in sports ever since childhood. C、The author is no longer interested in reading. D、The author thinks that doing exercise is a boring activity.(4)、What can be the best title for this passage?A、The Advantages Of Sports B、My Father' s Effect On Me C、My Passion For Sports D、Childhood Memories Of Sports -
