    14．Luke has always been my closest and best friend these past five years．As you already know，there have been a lot of forest fires during the summer season．Many forests are badly damaged by fire each year．Not far from our house，a forest caught fire during this hot summer．We are on July，a heat wave which has been going on for three days．
    Luke rushed towards the forest where flames send out heat．There's no longer any hope at the moment to wait for Luke to come back．In fact，I was waiting for the fire brigade （消防队） to tell me about his death in the forest．Suddenly，a fireman burst into my office and told me that Luke successfully saved four little cats who were trapped by the flames．According to the fireman，Luke moved the cats one by one to a safe place．
    I immediately went to the forest to pick up the rescued cats with the fireman．However，Luke was not there．Then we heard the sound of a dog came from the forest barking （狗吠） loudly．I recognized the sound of Luke．The firemen followed the tracks of the dog until they found him barking loudly by the side of an injured fireman who was lying on the ground and waiting for rescue．
    Thanks to Luke，four cats and a fireman were saved．That day，I took pride in Luke for his two heroic actions．I paid a visit to the fireman in his house with my Luke．What a memorable scene when the fireman held Luke tightly to his chest!"One thousand thanks，Luke，for saving my life，"the fireman said．
    This true story of love shows us that pets are faithful．We should love and protect them．Sometimes they can make big things for humans．

    2．It seems hard to watch someone yawn（打哈欠） and not to yawn ourselves．Even reading about yawning can make you do it．Now，a new study has found why yawning has such a powerful force．Yawning when others yawn，the study suggests，is a form of social connection．Kids don't develop this behavior until around age four，the study found．Autistic（患自闭症的）children are less likely to catch yawns．In the most serious cases，they never do．Yawning might help doctors to see whether the children are developing rightly．The work could also lead to a better understanding of the ways that people communicate and connect．
    "Emotional（情绪的） effect seems to be a born thing that connects us together，"said Molly Helt，a graduate student at the University of Connecticut．"Yawning may be part of that．"Inspiration for her study came when she tried to get her own autistic son to clear his ears on an airplane．She repeatedly yawned at him，hoping he would yawn back．He never did．
    "The fact that autistic kids don't do it might mean they're really missing out on that emotional connection with people around them，"she said．"The biggest thing people try to figure out after birth is how we become humans and understand that humans have minds that are different from others'，"she added．"Autistic people never seem to understand that．"
    Like infectious （有感染力的）laughter and crying，scientists have found that yawning is a shared experience that improves social connection．Helt said it could fight stress after a period of being nervous and spread a feeling of calm through a group．

    12．According to the passage，which of the following statements is True？B．
    A．It is hard to yawn when you see others yawn．
    B．Yawning is a form of communication．
    C．Autistic children are more likely to catch yawns．
    D．Yawning too much does harm to people's health．
    13．In her study，Molly Helt has found thatB．
    A．people get inspired when they yawn
    B．yawning is a kind of emotional connection among humans
    C．people only communicate with others by yawning when they are young
    D．yawning helps clear ears on planes
    14．From the passage，we can know thatD．
    A．it is strange to yawn back if people around you yawn．
    B．some kids are too young to yawn after others．
    C．autistic children yawn easily when others yawn．
    D．yawning can be used to test children's development．
    15．From the the last paragraph，it can be inferred thatD．
    A．yawning is different from infectious laughter and crying
    B．it is impolite to yawn on some social occasions
    C．yawning is a shared experience that improves social connection
    D．yawning can make people feel relaxed．

    19．I  learned a  long  time ago  that hair has meanings-plenty of meanings．Growing up  in  the 1960s，my friends and I struggled with out parents'control over the length and style of our hair．
    At  the  time，hair  represented  our  need  to  break  free  from  adults  in  our  lives．Long  hair represented our freed inner selves．
    My clients are often surprised when I asked them questions about their hairstyle-why they choose it，how else they've worn their hair，how they feel about it，and so on．However，while it may  seem  to  be  a  simple  topic，even  today  our  hairstyles  still  have many  psychological  and emotional meanings．Understanding some of those meanings can lead to understanding of many different aspects of a person's mind．How we view our hair，for example，can show something about how we view ourselves．
    Our  hair  can  show  physical  and  emotional wellbeing，desirability，and  even  social  and financial  status．When  it  becomes  dull  or  fragile，it  can  communicate  emotional  and  physical diseases．But hair can also show unrecognized and often unspoken daydreams about oneself and one's world．One woman-a successful professional-wore her long hair in a thick bun（发髻）．
    But  one  day  she  showed me  that  tangled（缠结的） hair was kept  in  the bun．She  said  that  she never brushed out the tangles because the hair showed her secret image of herself as a helpless，disturbed woman，like Ophelia in the play Hamlet．
    Another woman came to therapy in a huge shirt and huge pants that she believed they could hide the weight she had put on since the birth of her child．She talked about how much she hated her  body  and  how  helpless  she  felt  about  doing  anything  about  it．But  her  hair  was  always beautifully  coloured  and  decorated．When  I  pointed  out  that  she  seemed  to  have  a  different relationship with her hair  from she did with her body，she said  that her hair had been  thinning 
    and  that she was  trying  to make  it  look as good as she  could．I pointed out  that what she was doing  with  her  hair  and  her  body  was  kind  of  contradictory，and  wondered  if  she  had  any thoughts about that．
    She was surprised．But as we talked about her contradictory attitudes towards different parts of her physical self，we began to open up all sorts of other thoughts and ideas about her inner self．
    And interestingly，as we continued opening those internal doors，changes started to happen．She started eating differently and exercising  regularly．One day some months  later，she appeared  in my  office  in  skinny  jeans  and  a  tight  sweater，and  her  hair was  pulled  back  in  a  ponytail．"I decided to see what would happen if I stopped trying to hide myself，"she said with a big smile．
    "And…？"I  asked．"People  keep  smiling  at  me  in  the  street．My  husband  hugged  me  this morning for the first time in ages．And I feel good!"
    Besides，selfrespect in both men and women can be damaged by thinning hair；they may 
    feel  alone  even  though  they  are  really  not．Given  our  cultural  focus  on  physical  appearance，youth，and health，hair loss can be unpleasant for both men and women．The market is filled with hairenhancing  treatments，but  there  are  those who  have decided  to be  against  the  system  and change to the"bald is beautiful"position．But it is much harder for women to take the"bald is beautiful"approach to hair loss．We tend to try to hide it in one way or another．
    But no matter what approach you use，it is important to remember that the thickness of your hair  has  nothing  to  do with  your  value  in  the world．Remember  that  you  have  nothing  to  be ashamed of if you have thinning hair．Thinning hair may not be something you can change，but it doesn't have to control how you represent the person who lives underneath it．
    50．In the 1960s，long hair representedD．
    A．fashion  B．honesty     C．peace      D．freedom
    51．Why does the author ask clients questions about their hairstyle？B
    A．Because this topic can reduce clients'pain．
    B．Because the hairstyle can reflect one's inner self．
    C．Because it's a simple topic to start a conversation．
    D．Because this is a topic most people are interested in．
    52．The author mentioned stories of two women in order toA．
    A．prove her idea      
    B．introduce the topic
    C．make comparisons       
    D．stress the importance of good hair
    53．What can we know about the woman wearing her long hair in a thick bun？B
    A．She had long but thinning hair．
    B．She was helpless and disturbed．
    C．She was too busy to brush her hair．
    D．She loved the play Hamlet very much．
    54．What does the author advise us to do in the last two paragraphs？A
    A．Not to be affected by thinning hair．
    B．To take the"bald is beautiful"position．
    C．To find suitable treatments for thinning hair．
    D．Not to pay too much attention to our physical appearance．
