Martin Henfield talks about some of his experiences as a twin: When we were small, my mother dressed us 46 the same clothes. That was bad enough and we didn’t like it. But when we went on our first camping trip with the scouts (童子军), it was even 47 .

Ⅲ．阅读理解（共25小题，每小题2分；共计50分）

（A）

In the United States, 30 percent of the adult population has a ―weight problem.‖. To many people, the cause is clear: We eat too much. But scientific evidence does little to support this idea.

Going back to the America of 1910, we find that people were thinner than today, yet they ate more food. In those days, people worked harder physically, walked more, used machines much less, and didn't watch television.

Several modern studies, moreover, have shown that fatter people don't eat more on average than thinner people. In fact, some investigations, such as a 1970 study of 3,545 London office workers, report that, on balance, fat people eat less than slimmer people.

Studies show that slim people are more active than fat people. A study by a research group at Stanford University School of Medicine found the following interesting facts.

The more the men ran, the greater loss of body fat.

The more they ran, the greater their increase in food intake (吸收).

Thus those who ran the most ate the most, yet lost greatest amount of body fat.

（）58．Is there scientific evidence to support eating too much is the cause of a ―weight problem‖?

A．Y es, there is plenty of evidence.

The nervous-looking young man had waited for a few moments—outside the jeweller’s before he got enough courage to enter. He was warmly greeted by a young assistant. James felt a rush of blood to his face as he explained he would bring in his future wife to choose a birthday present. The assistant listened carefully and told him he’d better buy a necklace. He wasn’t used to

buying jewellery and was a little worried about over-spending. After some discussion as to a reasonable price and the type, the assistant showed him dozens of necklaces and helped him to choose. At last James chose one and left the shop promising to return at five o’clock. When half an hour later than planned, James did return to the shop with his future wife, Laura, the assistant acted as if she had never seen him before. When she was asked to show them some necklaces, she first brought out some inexpensive ones for them to choose, and then gave them the one she had prepared. A choice was soon made and they went away satisfied. James would certainly come back to buy what he wanted when he got married.

On June 17, 1774, the officials from Maryland and Virginia held a talk with the Indians of the Six Nations. The Indians were invited to send boys to William and Mary College. In a letter the next day they refused the offer as follows:

We know that you have a high opinion of the kind of learning taught in your colleges, and that the costs of living of our young men, while with you, would be very expensive to you. We are convinced that you mean to do us good by your proposal; and we thank you heartily. But you must know that different nations have different ways of looking at things, and you will therefore not be offended if our ideas of this kind of education happen not to be the same as yours. We have had some experience of it. Several of our young people were formerly brought up at the college of the northern provinces: they were taught all your sciences; but when they came back to us, they were

bad manners, ignorant of every means of living in the woods – they were totally good for nothing.

We are, however, not the less obliged（强制、迫使）by your kind offer, though we refuse to accept it; and, to show our grateful sense of it, if the gentlemen of Virginia will send us a dozen of their sons, we will take care of their education, teach them all we know, and make men of them. （）66．The passage is about _______ .

Do dogs understand us?

Be careful what you say around your dog. It might understand more than you think.

A border collie (大牧羊犬) named Rico recognizes the names of about 200 objects, say researchers in Germany. The dog also appears to be able to learn new words as easily as a 3-year-old child. Its word-learning skills are as good as those of a parrot or chimpanzee (黑猩猩).

In one experiment, the researchers took all 200 items that Rico is supposed to know and divided them into 20 groups of 10 objects. Then the owner told the dog to go and fetch one of the items and bring it back. In four tests, Rico got 37 out of 40 commands right. As the dog couldn't see anyone to get clues, the scientists believe Rico must understand the meanings of certain words.

In another experiment, the scientists took one toy that Rico had never seen before and put it in a room with seven toys whose names the dog already knew. The owner then told Rico to fetch the object, using a word the dog had never heard before.

The correct object was chosen in seven out of l0 tests, suggesting that the dog had worked out the answer by process of elimination (排除法). A month later, Rico remembered half of the new names, which is even more impressive.

Rico is thought to be smarter than the average dog. For one thing, Rico is a border collie, a breed (品种) known for its mental abilities. In addition, the 9-year-old dog has been trained to fetch toys by their names since the age of nine months.

It's hard to know if all dogs understand at least some of the words we say. Even if they do, they can't talk back. Still, it wouldn't hurt to sweet-talk your dog every now and then. Y ou might just get a big, wet kiss in return!

（）74．From paragraph 2 we know that _______ .

A．animals are as clever as human beings

B．dogs are smarter than parrots and chimpanzees

C．chimpanzees have very good word-learning skills

D．dogs have similar 'learning abilities as 3-year-old children

（）75．Both experiments show that _______ .

A．Rico is smart enough to get all commands right

B．Rico can recognize different things including toys

C．Rico has developed the ability of learning mathematics

D．Rico won't forget the names of objects once recognizing them

（）76．Which of the following statements is true?

A．The purpose of the experiments is to show the border collie's mental abilities.

B．Rico has a better memory partly because of its proper early training.

C．The border collie is world-famous for recognizing objects.

D．Rico is born to understand its owner's commands.

（）77．What does the writer want to tell us?

A．To train your dog. B．To talk to your dog.

C．To be friendly to your dog. D．To be careful with your dog.

Do you want to improve the way you study? Do you feel nervous before a test? Many students say that a lack of concentration is their biggest problem. It seriously affects their ability to study, so do their test results.

If so, use these tips to help you.

Study T echniques

●Y ou should always study in the same place. Y ou shouldn’t sit in a position that you use for

another purpose. For example, when you sit on a sofa to study, your brain will think it is time to relax. Don’t watch TV while you are studying. Experts warn that your concentration may be reduced by 50 percent if you attempt to study in this way. Always try to have a white wall in front of you, so there is nothing to distract (make less concentrated) you. Before sitting down to study, gather together all the equipment you need. Apart from your textbooks, pens, pencils and knives, make sure you have a dictionary. If your study desk or table is needed when you are not studying, store all your equipment in a box beside it.

●Y our eyes will become tired if you try to read a text which is on a flat surface. Position your

book at an angle of 30 degrees.

●Be realistic and don’t try to complete too much in one study period. Finish one thing before

beginning another. If you need a break, get up and walk around for a few minutes, but try not to telephone a friend or have something to eat.

T est-taking Skills

●All your hard work will be for nothing if you are too nervous to take your test. Getting plenty

of rest is very important. This means do not study all night before your test! It is a better idea to have a long-term study plan. Try to make a timetable for your study which lasts for a few months.

●Exercise is a great way to reduce pressure. Doing some form of exercise every day will also

improve your concentration. Eat healthy food too.

●When you arrive in the examination room, find your seat and sit down. Breathe slowly and

deeply. Check the time on the clock during the test, but not too often. Above all, take no notice of everyone else and give the test paper your undivided attention.

（）78．Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

A．Y ou should study in a different place every day, so you don’t get bored.

B．Y our concentration will improve if you study and watch TV at the same time.

C．Check the time during the exam at a certain time.

D．Staying up all night and studying is tiring, but you will learn a lot using this method.

（）79．What does the underlined word ―it‖ refer to?

A．Y our study desk or table. B．Y our textbook.

C．Y our dictionary. D．The equipment you need.

（）80．What can be inferred from the passage?

A．Y ou shouldn’t look at everyone else during the test.

B．Y ou will have enough energy to deal with your study and exams by eating healthy diet.

C．Y ou’ll concentrate more if there is nothing to distract you.

D．If you feel tired during study, you can walk around for a few minutes.
