9、 阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。
One spring morning many years ago, I had been searching for gold along Coho Creek on southeastern Alaska's Kuprean of Island, and as I emerged from a forest of spruce(云杉) and hemlock tree, I froze in my tracks. No more than 20 paces in the bog(沼泽) was a huge Alaskan timber wolf—caught in one of Tapper George's raps.
Old George had died the previous week of a heart attack, so the wolf was lucky. Confused and frightened at my approach, the wolf backed away. Then I noticed something else: It was a female, and her teats were full of milk. Somewhere there was a den of hungry pups (小狼) waiting for their mother.
From her appearance, I guessed that she had been trapped only a few days. That meant her pups were probably still alive. But I suspected that if I tried to release the wolf, she would turn aggressive and try to tear me to pieces.
So I decided to search for her pups instead and began to look for tracks that might lead me to her den. Fortunately, there were still a few remaining of snow. After several moments, I spotted pups' marks on a trail.
The tracks led a half mile through the forest, then up a slope covered with many rocks. I finally spotted the den at the base of an enormous spruce. There wasn't a sound inside. Wolf pups are shy and cautious, and I didn't have much hope of inviting them outside, but I had to try. So I began imitating the high-pitched(声音很尖锐的) sound of a mother wolf calling her young. No response. A few moments later, after I tried another call, four tiny pups appeared. They couldn't have been more than a few weeks old.
注意:1. 所续词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。I extended my hands.
With her pups under her belly to protect, she was becoming aggressive.

How to Choose Your Purpose-Filled Career
When you think about choosing a career, you often do it in the following two ways.
Think about what you like to do. If you like writing or doing crafts, you might consider these things. This is not a bad way to go, of course, but you can't always make money doing things you like (like video games or drinking beer).
Think about a well-paid job that you can do and doesn't sound so bad. Or maybe that's out of your educational reach, so you choose office or retail worker. These are all great choices. But often they are not something you're really passionate about. It's kind of like just doing something because it's there——not very inspired.
Try to do something to serve a community or make the world better. For example, taking care of children, because you really want to help children get a great start in life, or blossom into who they want to be or getting into government or social work to improve the conditions of the community you live in or becoming a scientist to help ease the environmental crisis or find a cure for a terrible disease. And if you choose one of them for that purpose, you will serve in that work feeling a sense of purpose each day.
The point isn't how you serve the world, but just serving the world in some way will help you feel filled with purpose. If you choose a purposeful and enjoyable job, you're always further along than most people.
A. There are endless ways to do that.B. Maybe a doctor, engineer or lawyer?
C. However, there's another way that is perhaps better.
D. You are dreaming of a well-paid job which you like best.
E. It's essential not to concentrate on interests and good payment.
F. Each of these is just one of many possibilities filled with purpose.
G. And sometimes things you like are better as a hobby or side passion.

Every language and culture has curse words (脏话). What gives a curse word its power is partly its meaning and partly its sound. "In English, for example, curse words tend to contain a high percentage of plosive(爆破音) sounds—including P, T and K, " said Ryan McKay, a psychologist at University of London.
Dr. McKay teamed up with his colleague Shiri Lev-Ari to learn whether this familiar pattern went beyond English. They wondered whether it might even represent what's called sound symbolism. Sound symbolism is when a word sounds like what it means.
The researchers first asked fluent speakers of Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Korean and Russian to list the most vulgar (粗俗的) words they could think of. Once they'd made a list of each language's most frequently used curse words, the researchers compared these with neutral words from the same language. In these languages, they didn't find the plosive sounds that seem common in English curse words. "Instead, we found that the vulgar words were defined by what they lacked: the approximant (近似音) sounds that include letters I, L, R, W and Y, "Dr. Lev-Ari said.
Next, the scientists invited 215 native speakers of six languages: Arabic, Chinese, Finnish, French, German and Spanish. The participants listened to pairs of words in a language they didn't speak, and guessed which word in each pair was offensive. In reality, all the words were invented. For example, the researchers started with the Albanian word "zog, " for "bird, "and created the pair of fake words "yog" and "tsog. "Participants were more likely to guess that words without approximants, such as "tsog, " were curses.
Finally, the researchers combed through the dictionary for English curse words and their cleaned-up versions. Once again, the clean versions included more of the sounds I, L, R, W and Y.
A 20th-century linguistic principle claimed that the sounds of words were arbitrary: Any word could have any meaning. With curse words, though, as in other cases of sound symbolism, "the sounds themselves seem to carry meaning, "said Lev-Ari. "That's a new thing, "said linguist Benjamin Bergen. "Curse words across languages, unrelated to each other, may pattern similarly. "He also pointed out, to make sure the pattern of approximants missing from curses isn't an accident, it would be nice to find it in an even larger sample of languages.
(1)、What is the purpose of McKay and Lev-Ari's research?A、To analyze a phenomenon. B、To explain a definition. C、To confirm an assumption. D、To challenge a theory.(2)、What were the participants asked to do in the second part of the research?A、To tell the rude word according to its sound. B、To make up new curse words from real words. C、To decide which curse words are used more frequently. D、To identify the approximants in curse words.(3)、According to Lev-Ari, which of the four is likely to sound offensive?A、Tusck B、Sola C、Darn D、Biach(4)、What can we learn from the last paragraph?A、The old linguistic principle of sounds and meanings is wrong. B、In sound symbolism, a word's sound represents its meaning. C、The research reveals the similarities between different languages. D、The result of the research is not fully accepted by scientists. -

"I like pigs, " Winston Churchill supposedly once said. "Dogs look up at us, cats look down on us, but pigs treat us as equals. " Whether Churchill's contemporary George Orwell also liked pigs is less clear. But he, too, surely saw something in them that was lacking in other domestic beasts, for it was they who ended up running the show in novel Animal Farm. Pigs, then, are intelligent social creatures.
And, like all animals, they sometimes fight. A study just published in Animal Cognition by Ivan Norscia, a biological anthropologist at the University of Turin, in Italy, and his colleagues, looked at how a group of 104 domestic pigs went about resolving such incidents. In total, Dr. Norscia and his team studied the details of 216 pig conflicts over the course of six months.
Some pigs tend to be attackers; others tend to be victims. Who is what depends largely on weight, for, among pigs pounds mean power. The attacker might bite, kick, bump or lift the victim (or string together a sequence of those actions). Most conflicts ended in seconds, but some lasted a minute or two.
In most animal species that would be that. However, many of the pig conflicts Dr. Norscia observed had interested parties beyond the protagonists (主角). He therefore wanted to understand the role of these bystanders in resolving fights— and what this says about pigs" cognitive (认知)abilities.
Since there was usually not enough time for a bystander pig to intervene during the heat of a conflict (though this did occur), he and his colleagues looked at what happened in the three minutes directly following an aggressive interaction. Sometimes, they found, the protagonists made up on their own—for instance, by touching noses.
On other occasions, though, a third pig stepped in. Sometimes this bystander acted as a peacemaker, engaging with the attacker and reducing the number of subsequent attacks compared with what might otherwise have been expected. Sometimes, by contrast, the bystander engaged with the victim. This appeared to calm the victim down, for it reduced anxiety-related behavior such as shaking and scratching.
(1)、Why does the author mention Winston Churchill in the first paragraph?A、To introduce the topic of the text. B、To show pigs are inspirational. C、To state Churchill loves pigs. D、To prove pigs are clever.(2)、What probably decides on the pigs' roles in pig conflict?A、Their ages. B、Their weight. C、Their safety needs. D、Their cognitive abilities.(3)、Why did Ivan Norscia and his colleagues conduct the study?A、To record the details of 216 pig conflicts. B、To figure out the relationship between pigs. C、To comprehend the role of bystanders in conflict resolution. D、To find out the reason for pigs' conflicts.(4)、How will the bystander interact with the victim after a fight?A、By shaking it. B、By offering comfort to it. C、By scratching its back. D、By touching its nose. -
