Dogs may not know exactly what you are doing especially when you’re trying to figure out a square root or diagram a sentence. But according to a new study, dogs can understand what we’re thinking and feeling by reading our facial expressions and body language and following our eyes.
Researchers studied 29 dogs. The dogs were shown a movie where a woman looked directly at them and said “Hi dog!” Then, the woman looked at a flowerpot sitting next to her. The researchers found that when the woman looked at and spoke directly to a dog, the dog usually followed her eyes to the flowerpot. It proved that the dogs knew that the woman was thinking about the flowerpot.
“By following the eye movements of dogs, we were able to get a first-hand look at how their minds are actually working,” said Jozsef, the senior researcher.
Later in the movie, the woman said “Hi dogs” in a low voice and didn’t look at the dog before looking at the flowerpot. In that situation, the dogs didn’t seem to understand what the woman was thinking. There was no eye contact, and the woman didn’t appear to speak to the dogs directly.
That comes as no surprise to dog trainer Jones. “Dogs normally speak through nonverbal signals. It’s more natural to them,” she said. “If you’ve ever watched dogs at a dog park, you’ve seen it. Within 30 seconds they enter the park, much information has passed between the new dog and the ones already in the park. They’re exchanging looks, observing eyes and body posture. On the other hand, when you speak to a dog, they are learning a foreign language.”
Picking up your nonverbal signals seems more natural. So, if you were hoping that all this means your dog could help you solve your math problems, you’re probably out of luck. But he or she might be a lot more in tune with what you’re thinking than you previously thought

  1. 1.

    How could the researchers find that the dogs understood the woman’s intention?

    1. A.
      By speaking to them directly
    2. B.
      By reading their eye movements
    3. C.
      By following their facial expressions
    4. D.
      By asking the dog trainer questions
  2. 2.

    According to the text, Jones finds that ______.

    1. A.
      dogs usually speak through verbal signals
    2. B.
      dogs learn a great deal more at a dog park
    3. C.
      dogs can understand humans’ words easily
    4. D.
      dogs speak through eyes and body language
  3. 3.

    It is implied in the text that dogs can read your emotions only if ______.

    1. A.
      you manage to get their attention
    2. B.
      you like making friends with them
    3. C.

Across countryside, non-food crops are growing alongside wheat．Some are used in new alternatives to plastics and other materials, but others will simply be burned．
Burning crops is becoming more popular because it is good for the planet．Doing so is also cheaper than burning fossil fuels．As more land is devoted to non-food crop production, the economics of crops for fuel are likely to become even more favorable．
Humans have been burning such biomass—organic materials from plants or animals— since they discovered fire．But that burning fossil fuels could have catastrophic consequences has brought biomass back into fashion．
Even allowing for emissions (排放) of carbon dioxide from fuel used in planting, harvesting, processing and transporting biomass fuel, replacing fossil fuel with biomass can typically reduce greenhouse gas emissions by more than 90 percent．
Power stations around the world are experimenting with forms of biomass to add to their coal or oil, with encouraging results．Indeed, power companies could profit by turning to biomass, especially when the subsidies (補(bǔ)助) many governments offer for using renewable energy are taken into account．
Farmers can benefit from growing biomass．In Europe, the reduction of subsidies for certain crops is exposing farmers to market forces．Instead of being paid for whatever they produce, farmers must seek a clear demand for their product．Many believe that the demand for alternatives to fossil fuels could be just such a driver．
But while biomass offers a variety of potential alternatives, the world's infrastructure (基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施） has developed around burning fossil fuels to such a stage that switching to biomass involves a change in conception that many companies have not accepted．
Also, there are problems with using biomass．Although most coal-fired power stations could take a small amount of their fuel from biomass without significant adjustment, few are built to run on biomass alone．Burning some forms of biomass also causes environmental problems．Oils and waste can be smelly, while wood produces smoke unless burned properly．
The supply chains for fossil fuels are set up well, but those for biomass are just the beginning. Sources of supply for biomass rely on farm production and can therefore be less reliable. They are necessarily limited and it wouldn't make sense to turn a very large amount of valuable agricultural land away from food crops．But as the world adjusts to the need to control greenhouse gas emissions, these problems may receive more attention．

  1. 1.

    What do we know about biomass?

    1. A.
      It is a useful way of burning crops．
    2. B.
      It is plant and animal matter used to provide power．
    3. C.
      It is a new alternative to be used widely．
    4. D.
      It is a popular approach to fighting against pollution．
  2. 2.

    What are the advantages of using biomass?
    a．It gives off less greenhouse gases．
    b．It helps farmers receive subsidies for what they produce．
    c．It has met the clear demand for energy．
    d．It has brought subsidies for some power companies．
    e．It is cheaper than burning fossil fuels．

    1. A.
      a, b, c
    2. B.
      b, c, d
    3. C.
      c, d, e
    4. D.
      a, d, e
  3. 3.

    For coal-fired power stations, ______．

    1. A.
      more effective ways to use biomass have been tried
    2. B.
      using renewable energy has become their daily task
    3. C.
      burning biomass alone would require considerable changes
    4. D.
      setting up dependable supply channels needs governments' support
  4. 4.

    What is the author's attitude towards biomass fuels?

    1. A.
      Defensive．
    2. B.
      Doubtful．

Ever since Jerusha started her college, she began to write letters. Through a series of letters, from freshman to senior in college, she shared her life and study with an unknown gentleman, who never wrote back. Here is the very first letter.

Dear Mr. Kind,
Here I am! I traveled   yesterday for four hours in a train. It's a funny experience. I never rode in   one before.
College is the biggest, most   confusing place — I get lost whenever I leave my room. I will tell you more   later when I'm feeling less puzzled. Now I want to write a letter first just   to get me familiar to you.
It seems strange to be   writing letters to somebody you don't know. It seems strange for me to be   writing letters at all — I've never written more than three or four in my   life, so please overlook it if they are not a model kind.
Before leaving   yesterday morning, Mrs. Lippett and I had a very serious talk. She told me   how to behave, especially towards the kind gentleman who is doing so much for   me. I must take care to be very respectful.
I have been thinking   of you a great deal this summer; having somebody take an interest in me after   all these years makes me feel as though I had found a sort of family. It   seems as though I belonged to somebody now, and it's a very comfortable   feeling. I must say, however, that when I think about you, my imaqination   has very little to work upon.
There are just three   things that I know:
I .You are tall.
II .You are rich.
III. You hate girl.
I suppose I might call   you Dear Mr. Girl-Hater. Only that's rather unpleasant to me. Or Dear Mr.   Rich-Man, but that's unpleasant to you, as though money were the only   important thing about you. Maybe you won't stay rich all your life; But at   least you will stay tall all your life! So I decide to call you Dear   Daddy-long-legs. I hope you won't mind. It's just a private pet name — we   won't tell Mrs. Lippett.
The ten o'clock bell is going to ring in   two minutes. Our day is divided by bells. We eat and sleep and study by   bells. There it goes! Lights out. Good night.
You can see how   strictly I obey rules due to my training in the John Grier Home.
Yours most respectfully,
Jerusha Abbott

I looked at my beautiful Christmas tree and sighed. It was time. The New Year was a week old and my tree still stood in the corner of our room with its collection of memories proudly displayed in a shower of colorful lights. I’d procrastinated（拖延，耽擱）long enough.
I got up, went to the garage and dragged all the boxes into the room. The garland(花環(huán))was the first to come down. The tree looked naked(光禿禿的)already. I took the large ornament（裝飾物）off next. They made a large pile on our bed. An hour later, our bed was covered with Christmas memories. Each pile contained an ornament along with its matching brothers and sisters from sets purchased many years ago.
I prepared the boxes and carefully placed ornaments in their protective packaging, pausing every few minutes to admire a favorite. “Hey, little Santa!” I held the Santa from my childhood. “Thanks for being my friend for almost fifty years.” He was a little ragged but still gives me a flood of wonderful memories. “Until next year, my dear friend.”
There was a collection of handmade ones. My children made in the their first years of school, more than twenty years ago. Made by tiny hands, they are far from perfect in design, but every year they go on my memory tree-memories of young giggles(咯咯地笑)on Christmas morning and a smiling face when they handed them to me when I came home from work. “Look what we made, Daddy!”
“Oh! It is beautiful. Let’s find a special spot on the tree for it.” Every year since, they are displayed.
A few hours after I started, the filled boxes were back in the garage, the room was vacuumed(用吸塵器清掃)and I sat staring at a barren(空蕩蕩的)corner. The room seemed so empty. It took me two days of work to assemble(收集)and decorate my tree, but only a few hours to take it apart.
My tree is like a good marriage or a great friendship. Like the tree, they take a long time to assemble and decorate with memories, but can be torn down quickly.
Every year I have to put my tree away, but not my marriage or friendships. I take great care of those. They get to glow in the corner of my life for as long as I live. I get to analyze my tree and find memories for a few weeks every year. I can do the same with the loves in my life every day. Take great care of your friendships and your marriage. Once they come down, they aren’t as easy to put back together as a Christmas tree. Stand them in that special spot in the corner of your heart and admire their glow

Women consistently lie on social networking sites such as Facebook or Twitter to make their lives appear more exciting, a survey has found.
Researchers found that at least one in four women exaggerated or distorted what they are doing on social media once a month. The survey of 2000 women found they mostly pretended to be out on the town, when in fact they are home alone, and embellished about an exotic holiday or their job.
The most common reasons for women to write “fibs” included worrying their lives would seem “boring”, jealousy at seeing other people’s more exciting posts and wanting to impress their friends and acquaintances.
Psychologists suggested that as people attempt to “stay connected” on social media, they can in fact “paradoxically” be left “more isolated”. They also said that the “more we try to make our lives seem perfect, the less perfect we feel”.
According to the OnePoll survey, one third of women surveyed admitted to “dishonesty” on social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter at some stage.
Almost one in four admitted to lying or exaggerating about key aspects of their life online between one and three times a month while almost one in 10 said they lied more than once a week.
Nearly 30 percent of women lied about “doing something when I am home alone”, almost a quarter overstated their alcohol consumption while one in five were not truthful about their holiday activities or their jobs. Almost one in five women even lied about their “relationship status”.
“We work very hard presenting ourselves to the world online, pretending and attempting to be happy all the time which is exhausting and ultimately unfulfilling,” said Dr Michael Sinclair, a leading British consultant psychologist.
“Omitting the less desirable imperfections of our lives from the conversations with our `friends` online leads to less opportunity to feel empathized with(與…產(chǎn)生共鳴), resulting in a greater sense of disconnection from others.”
The survey was commissioned by Pencourage, a new anonymous “diary-style” social media website

  1. 1.

    Which of the words below is closest in meaning to the underlined word “fibs” in Para 3?

    1. A.
      life experiences
    2. B.
      short stories
    3. C.
      careful thoughts
    4. D.
      insignificant lies
  2. 2.

    A woman tends to tell a lie online when she______.

    1. A.
      hopes to make more friends
    2. B.
      envies other people’s exciting life
    3. C.
      feels lonely at home
    4. D.
      gets tired of the boring life
  3. 3.

    A woman might pretend to be happier online than she actually is by ______.

    1. A.
      avoiding conversations with friends
    2. B.
      describing her holiday activities
    3. C.
      leaving out the imperfections in life
    4. D.
      overstating her trouble at work
  4. 4.

    According to Dr Michael Sinclair, constantly lying online may______.

    1. A.
      eventually make one’s life more exciting
    2. B.
      actually lead to a sense of isolation
    3. C.
      really improve one’s sense of happiness
    4. D.
      scarcely have any influence on relationships

In bringing up children, every parent watches eagerly the child’s acquisition of each new skill-the first spoken words, the first independent steps, or the beginning of reading and writing．It is often tempting to hurry the child beyond his natural learning rate, but this can set up dangerous feelings of failure and states of worry in the child: This might happen at any stage．A baby might be forced to use a toilet too early, a young child might be encouraged to learn to read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads．On the other hand, though, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning opportunities, he loses his natural enthusiasm for life and his desire to find out new things for himself．
Patents vary greatly in their degree of strictness towards their children．Some may be especially strict in money matters．Others are severe over times of coming home at night or punctuality for meals．In general, the controls imposed represent the needs of the parents and the values of the community as much as the child’s own happiness．
As regards the development of moral standards in the growing child, consistency is very important in parental teaching．To forbid a thing one day and excuse it the next is no foundation for morality．Also, parents should realize that “example is better than precept”．If they are not sincere and do not practice what they teach, their children may grow confused, and emotionally insecure when they grow old enough to think for themselves, and realize they have been to some extent fooled．
A sudden awareness of a marked difference between their parents’ principles and their morals can be a dangerous disappointment．

  1. 1.

    Eagerly watching the child’s acquisition of new skills ______.

    1. A.
      should be avoided
    2. B.
      is universal among parents
    3. C.
      sets up dangerous states of worry in the child
    4. D.
      will make him lose interest in learning new things
  2. 2.

    In the process of children’s learning new skills, parents______.

    1. A.
      should encourage them to read before they know the meaning of the words they read
    2. B.
      should not expect too much of them
    3. C.
      should achieve a balance between pushing them too hard and leaving them on their own
    4. D.
      should create as many learning opportunities as possible
  3. 3.

    The second paragraph mainly tells us that ______.

    1. A.
      parents should be strict with their children
    2. B.
      parental controls reflect only the needs of the parents and the values of the community
    3. C.
      parental restrictions vary, and are not always intended for the benefit of the children alone
    4. D.
      parents vary in their strictness towards their children according to the situation
  4. 4.

Nutrition influences not only students' grades at school but their growth and development. Improper nutrition is one of the causes of childhood obesity. What can you do to help your child avoid childhood obesity?
My first piece of advice is to look in your fridge. What are you buying at the grocery store? Think about it: if you don't buy junk food or snacks, your kids won't eat them at home. Now if you're like me — both of your kids are at school, you'll know you can't police them every second of the day. This is the time when you'll need to talk to your children about their food choices. If you don't know the right food choices, there are so many free resources on-line to guide you.
Try new things. I was very surprised to find out my 4-year-old daughter likes balsamic vinegar — she calls it the "black sauce". She likes to have it with tomatoes and cucumbers. You just never know what your kids might like.
Don't get stressed if you can't always prepare something healthy. You may sometimes leave the house and forget to take something out for dinner, or you are running late and there's no time to cook before you have to take one of the kids somewhere. However, you can still make healthy choices while dining out. Many of the fast food restaurants offer fruit and milk instead of soda. I like to buy organic frozen pizzas from the organic market — for a quick dinner solution(解決辦法). All the ingredients are natural. What I do is to serve the pizza with something raw: lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, or fruit to try to give the kids something healthy with that meal.

The high cost of living in Sydney causes city parents to worry more about their children.
New research by the Financial Services Council (FSC)shows that 75% of metropolitan mums and dads say their ability to earn is important to the well-being of their kids, Tet a greater proportion(比例)of Sydney parents think children suffer emotionally by having two full-time working parents .AS a result 46%of Sydneysiders feel their Kids could be happier , against 38%of both Melbourne and regional New South Wales mums and dads.
The FSC research ,which interviewed 1200 parents across the country ,also shows 66% of Sydneysiders believe the happiness of their children would be greatly affected if they or their partner couldn’t work.
The FSC undertook the survey as part of its Lifewise campaign ,to encourage Australians to protect themselves against financial hardship.
Chairman of the Lifewise campaign John Crosswell said：“The research findings quite clearly highlight that Sydney parents prioritise (優(yōu)先考慮)their ability to earn money and yet because they are so busy doing so, it seems that their ability to spend time with their family is affected .Sydney parents are dedicated to earning money but as a consequence, perhaps they don’t have the time to enjoy spending it with their family.”
In sydney ,the top factor for creating an ideal childhood is financial security ,at 92%.Fewer parents rate having a tigh-knit family(89%)or living near friends and family (85%)as important.
David and Ari Dearnley ,of North Manly ,said money pressure was hard to avoid in Sydney ,They both work and said family finances would be severely hard if one of them couldn’t
But only Mrs Dearnly has income-protection insurance, “I think that I don’t really need it yet”,Mr Dearnly ,37, said.
“I think he’s mad”,Mrs Dearnly ,also 27 ,said,“If David couldn’t work it would have a huge impact on our lifestyle.”
“Looks like I’ll be getting it tomorrow,”Mr Dearnly responded
