    One morning more than thirty years ago, I entered the Track Kitchen, a restaurant where everyone from the humblest(卑微的) to the most powerful came for breakfast. I noticed an empty chair next to an elderly, unshaven man, who looked somewhat disheveled. He was wearing a worn-out hat and was alone. I asked if I might join him. He agreed quietly and I sat down to have my breakfast.

    We cautiously began a conversation and spoke about a wide range of things. We never introduced ourselves. I was concerned that he might have no money and not be able to afford something to eat. So as I rose to go back to the counter and buy a second cup of coffee, I asked,

    “May I get you something?”

    “A coffee would be nice.”

    Then I bought him a cup of coffee. We talked more, and he accepted another cup of coffee. Finally, I rose to leave, wished him well, and headed for the exit. At the door I met one of my friends. He asked,

    “How did you get to know Mr. Galbreath?”

    “Who?”

    “The man you were sitting with. He is chairman of the Board of Churchill Downs.”

    I could hardly believe it. I was buying, offering a free breakfast, and feeling pity for one of the world’s richest and most powerful men!

    My few minutes with Mr. Galbreath changed my life. Now I try to treat everyone with respect, no matter who I think they are, and no matter another human being with kindness and sincerity.

    1.What does the underlined word “disheveled” mean?

    A. Unfriendly. B. Untidy.

    C. Gentle. D. Kind.

    2.The author bought coffee for the old man because

    A. he thought the old man was poor

    B. he wanted to start a conversation

    C. he intended to show his politeness

    D. he would like to thank the old man

    3.How did the author probably feel after he talked with his friend?

    A. Proud B. Pitiful

    C. Surprised D. Regretful

    4.What is the message mainly expressed in the story?

    A. We should learn to be generous.

    B. It is honorable to help those in need.

    C. People in high positions are not like what we expect.

    D. We should avoid judging people by their appearances.

    Can dogs and cats get along well in the same home? People who are thinking about getting a dog as a friend for their cat are worried that they will fight. A recent research has found that if the cat is taken back home before the dog, and if they are introduced when still young (less than 6 months for cats, a year for dogs), it is highly probable that the two pets will get along swimmingly. In two-thirds of the homes cats and dogs have a good relationship.

    However, it wasn’t all sweetness and light. There was a reported coldness between the cat and dog in 25% of the homes, while aggression(侵略，好斗) and fighting were found in 10% of the homes. One reason for this is probably that some of their body languages are just different. For example, when a cat turns its head away it means aggression, while a dog doing the same means submission(顺从).

    In homes with cats and dogs living peacefully, researchers found a surprising behavior. They are learning how to talk each other’s language. It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk “Dog”, and dogs can learn how to talk “Cat”.

    What’s interesting is that both cats and dogs have appeared to become smarter. They can learn to read each other’s body languages, suggesting that the two may have more in common than was expected. Once familiar with each other’s body language, cats and dogs can play together, and enjoy sleeping together on the sofa.

    The importance of this research on cats and dogs may go beyond pets — to people who don’t get along well, including neighbors, colleagues at work, and even countries. If cats and dogs can learn to get along, surely people have a good chance.

    1.The underlined word “swimmingly” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ________.

    A. early B. mostly

    C. quickly D. smoothly

    2.Some cats and dogs may fight when ________.

    A. they are cold to each other

    B. they look away from each other

    C. they are introduced at an early age

    D. they misunderstand each other’s body languages

    3.It is suggested in Paragraph 4 that cats and dogs ________.

    A. have common interests

    B. are less different than was thought

    C. have a common body language

    D. are not so smart as was expected

    4.What can we human beings learn from cats and dogs?

    A. We should learn to get along well with others.

    B. We should know more about animals.

    C. We should live in peace with animals.

    D. We should learn more body languages.
