Lessen Your Pets Exposure to Ticks

If you think that your pet may be exposed to ticks, speak to your vet to discuss safe, effective products that may be able to prevent the attachment of ticks.
Check Your Pet for Signs of Ticks
Check your pet for ticks daily, especially if he or she has been playing outside or in a wooded or grassy area.【3】 Run your hands along your pets body, feeling for small bumps (肿块) and looking for dark spots. Ticks can be black, brown, and can range in size.
Know How to Safely Remove a Tick from Your Pet
Removing a tick from your pet can be a terrible task, but it’s important to act quickly if you find evidence of a tick on it, as diseases can be spread from the creatures within a few short hours. 【4】 Among them using the tick remover is the most commonly used one.
【5】
A single bite from a disease-carrying tick can spread disease to your unsuspecting pet. Symptoms of diseases include fever, loss of appetite and reduced energy. If your pet shows any of these signs, seek veterinary (兽医的) help as soon as possible.

【解析】
本文是一篇应用文，介绍了几个可以帮助保护宠物免受蜱虫的叮咬的安全提示。
【1】根据前文. “Tick season” actually takes up most of the year. _可知实际上一年的大部分时间都是“蜱虫季节”。根据后文The following safety tips may help you protect your pet from harmful tick bites.可知以下的安全提示可以帮助你保护你的宠物免受蜱虫的叮咬。承上启下，E项（而在夏季，（蜱虫的）叮咬次数往往会增加。）切题，故选E项。
【2】根据后文Usually they are particularly fond of tall grasses and brush. If possible, clear your yard regularly to create a safer environment for your pet to play in.可知通常他们特别喜欢高的草和灌木。如果可能的话，经常清理你的院子，为你的宠物创造一个更安全的环境。承接下文，B项（蜱虫可以生活在所有类型的环境中。）切题，后文中的they指代的就是B项中的ticks。
【3】根据上文Check your pet for ticks daily, especially if he or she has been playing outside or in a wooded or grassy area.可知每天检查你的宠物是否有蜱虫，特别是当他或她一直在户外或树木繁茂的地方玩耍时。D项 （要检查的地方包括身体的大部分。）能够连接上文，跟本段标题（检查你的宠物是否有蜱虫的迹象）相呼应，故选D项。
【4】根据上文Removing a tick from your pet can be a terrible task, but it’s important to act quickly if you find evidence of a tick on it, as diseases can be spread from the creatures within a few short hours.可知清除宠物身上的蜱虫是一项艰巨的任务，但如果你发现了蜱虫存在的证据，就必须迅速采取行动，因为疾病可以在短短几小时内从动物身上传播。根据下文Among them using the tick remover is the most commonly used one.可知其中，使用蜱虫去除剂是最常用的一种。连接上下文，G项（网上可以找到各种各样的清除方法。）切题，后文中的them指的G项的varieties of removal methods，故选G项。
【5】根据最后一段内容可知这一段主要是关于宠物被蜱虫叮咬之后的症状，A项（了解症状）能够概括这一段，故选A项。
七选五题型要求考生从整体上把握文章的逻辑结构和内容上的联系，理解句子之间、段落之间的关系，对诸如连贯性、一致性等语段特征有较强的意识和熟练的把握。所以懂得整篇文章的基本结构或段落的语篇结构对解题很有用。
分析本文的语篇结构，可以知道第一段是文章的主题句，然后接下来各段的语篇结构都是主题句（总）+支撑句（分）（分述主题的具体内容/说明原因/举例证明等）。所以第3小题本段的主题句是Check Your Pet for Signs of Ticks，而空格前文Check your pet for ticks daily, especially if he or she has been playing outside or in a wooded or grassy area和后文Run your hands along your pets body, feeling for small bumps (肿块) and looking for dark spots.都是讲检查宠物身体的，D项跟检查动物身体有关，故选D项。

【题目】A couple of years ago, when my older daughter was 8,she gently told my wife and me that she’d gotten too old for us to read her books anymore. We didn’t try to talk her out of it or tell her many benefits of reading aloud to a child (even after they can do so themselves). 【1】
Two weeks after stopping our bedtime readings, though, my older daughter asked whether we could start again. 【2】 As she later explained, “Everyone likes to be read to, even adults.” We’ve continued uninterrupted since. Right now, we’re deep into Philip Pullman’s “The Golden Compass.”
【3】 In most of the studies, people found that reading aloud appeared to strengthen parents’ feelings of competence, improve the quality of their relationships with their children and even reduce parental stress or depression.
Reading aloud to children improves a young mind’s cognitive development (thinking, problem-solving, decision-making) and reduces behavior problems, research shows. As with playing board games, reading to them increases concentration and attention spans.
And yet, too many of us stop before the kids want us to. 【4】
The conversations children have around themes and ideas in books help them make sense of the world. And it’s a joyful way to connect and be close with your kid. While reading in bed, my daughters and I lie next to each other, sometimes leaning into one another. 【5】 It’s as high a quality as quality time gets.
A. She simply enjoyed the practice too much to let it go yet.
B. When she was a young child, we began a nearly daily reading called Milk & Books.
C. We were disappointed but respected her.
D. Reading aloud was significantly beneficial to children and their parents.
E. In Australia, more than a third of children aged 6 to 1l whose parents had stopped reading to them wanted to continue.
F. We laugh and are surprised together and have deep conversations about the novels.
G. It’s one of the most virtuous circles of parenting and teaching.

This afternoon, I saw an interesting thing while I am walking home from school. I noticed a schoolboy walking in the front of me. When he passed by a white wall, he left his two footprints on the wall. See this, an old man shouted at the boy angry. The boy felt afraid and ran out quickly. A few minutes later, other boy passed by the wall and saw the footprints on the wall. He thought a moment and took out a pencil from her schoolbag. When I was wondering, I saw the boy painting a panda on the wall. And the footprints become the panda’s black eyes. What smart the boy was!

【题目】 With obesity rats on the rise among Americans and their pets， two California women have come up with an all-in-one solution — a foggy boot camp where dog owners and their dogs work out together． Thank Dog Boot camp is the nation's first outdoor fitness program where both humans and dogs get a full-body workout while the dogs also learn basic skills． Founded two years ago by twins Jill and Jamie Bowers， the program has grown to include classes at various Los Angeles and Orange County locations and most recently in Northern California．
Classes begin as early as 6 a．m． With instructors yelling out commands in the traditional boot camp style． The difference here is that instructors are certified in both fitness and dog training， and each boot camper happens to have a four-legged partner by their side at all times．“People need to exercise， and dogs need to be trained and exercised，” said Jill Bowers．
The class takes place on a field in a public park with 30 minutes of running and 30 minutes of weight training． Each person has a mat． Their dogs have their own mats and water bowls beside their owner． Various squats， bends， jumps and dashes are combined for the humans． Meanwhile， dogs are told to engage in a series of numbered commands ranging from “sit” to “go” “to” “come”.
“A lack of exercise and training causes logs to have behavioral problem．” said Bowers． “If they don't have enough activities to exhaust their energy， they take it out on your favorite sofa of your designer shoes． With the boot camp， your dog is too tired to be bad．”
Attorney Taylor joined six months ago． “My dog always gets me out of bed，” said Taylor． “It's so used to going now that it's the one making sure I'm up and go out of the door． I've lost 15 pounds and have gained much confidence．”
【1】What's the purpose of the Thank Dog Boot camp?

【题目】 The UN’s Millennium Development Goals included the ambition that by 2015 all the world’s children would complete primary school. This has largely been achieved: nine out of ten children are now enrolled. 【1】 Even though most of the world’s children go to school, an awful lot of them learn pretty much nothing there. According to a recent World Bank study of seven sub-Saharan African countries, half of nine-year-olds cannot read a simple word and three-quarters cannot read a simple sentence. 【2】
Several recent studies suggest education technology can help. It seems to bring about bigger improvements in poor countries than in rich ones.
【3】 That doesn’t mean buying computers for schools in the hope that children will understand how to use them, a stupidity on which plenty of money has been wasted. Instead, it means providing schools with software that children can use with minimal help from an adult. The software gets things right more often than the teachers do, adjusts itself to the child’s ability, and sends teachers instructions about what they are supposed to be teaching. 【4】
Technology is no panacea(万灵药) . 【5】 And authorities need to take teachers into account. But education technology can help greatly — by monitoring pupils and teachers alike, assisting the best teachers and, most important, making up for the failings of the worst.
A. The reason is terrible teaching.
B. The achievements are really great.
C. However, the figure is not as impressive as it sounds.
D. Technology plays more and more important role in teaching.
E. Good traditional teachers are not outdated, and are never likely to be.
F. Meanwhile it allows the authorities to check on whether the teacher is in the classroom.
G. Some of the scarce resources being spent on teachers could therefore be better spent on education technology.
