Part II Reading
Comprehension (40 points)
Directions: There
are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is
followed by 5
questions or unfinished
statements. For each of them there are 4 choices
marked A,
B, C and D. Choose the best one and
mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single
bar through the center of the letter.
Passage One
Here's a familiar
story. You're sitting at the dinner table with a
furry,
four-legged friend scratching at your
feet. When you look down, those cute eyes are
almost impossible to resist.
What is it
about a dog's gaze that makes it so charming? A
new study by Japanese
scientist Miho Nagasawa
seems to have found the answer, and it has to do
with
something called the cuddle(爱抚)chemical.
The cuddle chemical has another, more
scientific name: oxytocin. Oxytocin is
a
substance in the blood that encourages bonding.
Levels of oxytocin increase, for
example, when
a mother feeds her newborn baby. According to
Nagasawa's study, the
same is true when we
look deeply into the eyes of a dog.
The
results of this study can tell us a lot about the
history of the bond between
humans and dogs.
It all started somewhere tens of thousands of
years ago. Scientists
believe that wolves used
to follow humans who were hunting large animals.
The wolves
would eat the food left behind by
the humans.
Humans realized that they could
use the wolves to help with the hunt, and
eventually both species began to work together
toward survival.
Over time, the wolves that
interacted with the humans began to change. They
became more loyal to their human partners. The
wolves and humans started to depend
on each
other and bond with each other. These changes are
what caused some of the
wolves to turn into
what we now know as dogs, a new specie^ evolved to
better survive
in their environment.
This
process depended a great deal on the bond humans
formed with them. And
according to Nagasawa's
study, this bond was formed with the help of
oxytocin, the
cuddle chemical.
11. What do
we know about oxytocin?
A. It regulates blood
flow. B. It promotes bonding.
C. It is in the
human gene. D. It is good for health.
12. When
we look deeply into a dog's eyes, the levels of
our oxytocin ____.
A. reduce over time B. go
either up or down
C. are on the rise D. remain
unchanged
13. At the beginning wolves followed
humans to ____.
A. eat the food left by humans
B. guard against large animals
C. take humans
for food D. hunt large animals together
14. Over time some wolves turned into
dogs ____.
A. due to their loyalty B. due to
the changing environment
C. for better
survival D. for better cooperation
15. What
does Nagasawa9s study aim to do?
A. Explore
the role of human-wolf partnership.
B. Show
the characteristics of the cuddle chemical.
C.
Explain the bond between humans and dogs.
D.
Understand the evolution of species.

翻译参考译文:
人类社会最为传统的定义是,“比家庭
更大的一群相互影响的人。”一个社会可能包
含的人,有至少一处共同点。在过去,社会成员相互之间在
地理位置层面上居住的相对比较
近,住在同一个村庄、镇、或者城市。然而如今,社会这个词意味着国家
、国际甚至是网络
上一群相互影响的个人群体。因此,社会的“新”定义可以是“认同他们有一些共同点
的一
群人。”
参考范文:
A good book is a light to
the soul
In the last several weeks, I have
finished reading a humorous book called Emma
which inspired me to rethink my ideas on
relationship, friendship as well as
kindness.
The main character called Emma Woodhouse, a
clever and beautiful lady, is born
in a rich
family. She is so kindhearted that she cares so
much about the happiness
and marriage of her
friends. She is successful in her so-called
matchmaking career
until she meets Harriet.
Emma is eager to introduce Harriet to a rich
gentleman,
but it turns out that this
gentleman loves Emma instead. What a mess! She
cares too
much about her friends, but she is
so insensitive to her own feelings. Fortunately,
she eventually finds that her true love, Mr.
Knightly, is just beside her all the
time.
Knightly loves her with heart and soul, and
Harriet also finds her true love.
I learn from
the novel that we should be kind to everyone
around us and respect
the choice of our
friends. On the other hand, we should not neglect
the kindness
and love from the people around
us.
