     Dog training is a business for some people,a serious hobby for others,and aonce-in-a-lifetime
experience for many. Individuals in all of these categories would probably agree that consistency
(一贯 性) is a key element of success from the beginning.
      If puppies are to be socialized,they must learn to control the impulse to use the carpet as a
bathroom,chew shoes,or nip at fingers. The first issue,bathroom training is more easily accomplished
in warm weather. Try to feed your pup outdoors,and after he has finished eating, take him to a spot
where you would like him to eliminate.If he cooperates,praise him generously with words and pats.
Take him to the same spot after each meal,and eventually he will follow this routine himself.
      The sight of a small puppy chewing through a new tennis shoe will make you do well to remove
the stolen shoe from the pup's mouth and firmly say" No" . Provide your pup with some acceptable
toys, such as a ball or a chew toy.
      Until your pup is well trained and trustworthy,don't leave him unattended (无人看管的 ) unless 
 he  is  limited  to  a  small  area. When he is young,you want to be sure someone will praise your pup
or desired behavior and express disapproval when he does some- hing you want to discourage.
      You will want your dog to learn to respond to the commands Come" , " Sit" ,and" Stay" . Again,
consistency and praise will help you achieve this goal. Each time the dog responds as you wish, praise
him. Whenever he ignores your commands,make him do what you commanded and then praise him.
         Negative behavior must be attended to also. You can discipline most dogs without hitting them.
Since they are usually anxious to please,most dogs are duty-punished-by-cruel words and tone of voice.
Remember to be consistent so your dog knows unquestioningly what is acceptable behavior.
     Although the first stages of dog training require a great deal of time and patience,the reward of a
socialized and obedient dog is well worth the effort.
1. Dog training is appropriately attempted by___.
A. professionals                  
B. hobbyists
C. zoologists                      
D. anyone
2. What is negative behavior best handled by?    
A. A slap on the nose.            
B. Tying the dog up.
C. A firm tone of voice.          
D. Starving the dog.
3. The article deals with all of the following EXCEPT___.
A. chewing problems            
B. barking at strangers
C. bathroom training            
D. responding to commands
4. What might be the best title for this passage?   
A. Tips on Training Your Dog.
B. A Good Puppy.
C. A six-Week Program to Train Your Dog.
D. Leave Dog Training to the Professionals.

     Most young people enjoy some form of physical activity.It may be walking, cycling, swimming, or in
winter, skating or skiing. It may be a game of some form-football, basketball,hockey, golf or tennis. It
may be mountaineering.
      Those who have a passion ( strong emotion) for climbing high mountains are often looked upon with
astonishment. Why are men and women willing to suffer cold and hardship,and to take risks in high
mountains? This astonishment is caused, probably, by the differences between mountaineering and other
forms of activities.
     Mountaineering is a sport and not a game. There are no man- made  rules as others ,such as golf and
football. There are ,of course , rules of different kinds which it would be dangerous to ignore,but it is this
freedom from man-made rules that makes mountaineering at- tractive to many people. Those who climb
mountains are free to use their own methods.
     If we compare mountaineering with other more familiar sports, we might think that one big difference
is that mountaineering is not a" team  game " . There  are ,it  is  true , no " matches " between " teams"
of climbers,but when climbers are on a rock linked by a rope on which their lives may depend,there is
obviously teamwork.
      A mountain climber knows that he may have to fight forces that are stronger and more powerful than
man. He has to fight the forces of nature. His sport requires high mental and physical qualities.
    A mountain climber continues to improve in skill year after year. A skier is probably past it by the age
of thirty,but it is not unusual for men of fifty or sixty to climb the highest mountain in the Alps. They may
take more time than younger men,but they perhaps climb with more skills and less waste of effort,and
they certainly experience equal enjoyment.
1. What movements are popular among people in winter in the passage?
A. Soccer and golf.              
B. Skiing and skating.
C. Cycling and hockey.        
D. Mountaineering.
 2. Mountaineering is a sport,not a game,because _____  . 
A. it has man-made rules
B. it is too dangerous for climbers
C. it can't bring people joy and leisure
D. it is free for climbers to use their own methods
3. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?   
A. Mountaineering is a match between climbers.
B. Mountaineering is similar to other sports in many ways.
C. Climbers work like a team when their lives may depend on a rope.
D. Climbers help each other in time of difficulty.
4. It can be inferred from the passage that____.   
A. mountaineering has no appeal to people
B. physical quality is more important than mental quality for climbers
C. a mountain climber would pass it by the age of thirty
D. it is possible for an old man of fifty or sixty to climb the Alps

     You are given many opportunities in life to choose to be a victim or creator. When you choose to be
a victim, the world is a cold and difficult place. "They" did things to you which caused all of your pain and
suffering. "They" are wrong and bad, and life is terrible as long as "they" are around. Or you may blame
yourself for all your problems, thus internalizing(内化)your victimization. The truth is, your life is likely to
stay that way as long as you feel a need to blame yourself or others.
     Those who choose to be creators look at life quite differently. They know there are individuals who
might like to control their lives, but they don't let this get in the way. They know they have their
weaknesses, yet they don't blame themselves when they fail. Whatever happens, they have choice in the
matter. They believe their dance with each sacred(神圣的)moment of life is a gift and that storms are a
natural part of life which can bring the rain needed for emotional and spiritual growth.
     Victims and creators live in the same physical world and deal with many of the same physical realities,
yet their experience of life is worlds apart. Victims relish (沉溺)in anger, guilt, and other emotions that
cause others—and even themselves—to feel like victims, too. Creators consciously choose love,
inspiration, and other qualities which inspire not only themselves, but all around them. Both victims and
creators always have choice to determine the direction of their lives.
     In reality, all of us play the victim or the creator at various points in our lives. One person, on losing a
job or a special relationship, may feel as if it is the end of the world and sink into terrible suffering for
months, years, or even a lifetime. Another with the same experience may choose to first experience the
grief, then accept the loss and soon move on to be a powerful creative force in his life.
     In every moment and every circumstance, you can choose to have fuller, richer life by setting a clear
intention to transform the victim within, and by inviting into your life the powerful creator that you are.
1. What does the word "they" in Paragraph 1 probably refer to?
A. People and things around you.
B. Opportunities and problems.
C. Creators and their choices.
D. Victims and their sufferings.
2. According to Paragraph 2, creators __________.
A. seem willing to experience failures in life
B. possess the ability to predict future life
C. handle ups and downs of life wisely
D. have potential to create something new
3. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?
A. Creators and victims face quite different things in life.
B. Creators and victims are masters of their lives.
C. Victims can influence more people than creators.
D. Compared with victims, creators are more emotional.
4. The examples mentioned in Paragraph 4 show that _______________.
A. strong attachment to sufferings in life pulls people into victims.
B. people need family support to deal with challengers in life.
C. it takes creators quite a long time to get rid of their pains.
D. one's experiences determine his attitude toward life.
5. What is the author's purpose in writing this passage?
A. To define victims and creators.
B. To evaluate victims against creators.
C. To explain the relationship between victims and creators.
D. To suggest the transformation from victims to creators.

     Attending builds friendships and acknowledging builds friendships. Friendships require equality and
friendships require loyalty from friends. It takes three years to build true friendship.
     In most cases, the development from acquaintance to friendship occurs gradually. We reach out to
offer friendship by offering a potential friend caring, listening, talking, sharing, accepting, and affirming. It
takes time and effort to build friendship. They are built slowly, slowly, slowly…yet, nothing can add more
to your life than having truly intimate friends. "Just friends" is a goal which is well worth pursuing!
     Self-disclosure is usually the first step in establishing a confident. And it is scary because of the
potential rejection factor. Do it anyway!
     Listening and acknowledging builds friendships. Often when your child, lover/partner, or friend tells
you a story or voices a complaint, he/she is just asking for acknowledgement. This does not mean that
he/she wants agreement or compliance; it merely indicates a desire to be heard and understood.
     Many conflicts in our personal relationships can be avoided if you take the time to acknowledge
others' feelings and points of view.
     Listening and attending builds friendships. Paying attention to someone is called "attending".
     It means that your ears, your eyes, your body and your feelings are all focused on that person at one
time. Attending is a very important part of any relationship. Looking at and focusing on another person
shows that you are "there for him/her".
     Friends are equal. Without equality, you can't have a close friendship. Friends are loyal and
trustworthy. No one can confide in someone they can not trust to be loyal and to keep his/her secrets.
     Allow time for friendship to grow!

1. Mow many aspects influence people when building friendships?
A. Five.
B. Six.  
C. Seven.  
D. Eight.
2. What does the word "intimate" in the sentence probably means?
A. Close.
B. Remote.  
C. Strange.      
D. Helpful.
3. What should you do when there are some conflicts between you and your friend?
A. Disclose yourself sincerely.          
B. Require understanding from him/her.
C. Have trust in your friend.
D. Acknowledge the other's feelings.
4. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Three years is necessary for all people to build friendships.
B. "Just friends" is very common for all in their life.
C. Time can build friendship and test true friendship.
D. Equality is the sole condition to develop people's friendship.

     Whether you're considering a first cell phone for your teen or trying to limit various functions on your
child's existing cell phone, it's important to understand the various controls and technologies available
today.
     The decision to get your child's first cell phone usually occurs when you're annoyed by your kid, who
insists that "everyone" has one. Whether that's accurate or not is probably of little interest to your child,
but it's typically his or her biggest selling point!
     Often parents recognize the safety features of the child's carrying a cell phone, including the ability to
communicate easily with parents by voice or text messaging. Convenience is also a large factor -knowing where in the mall to meet your child, or getting the notice that soccer practice has been delayed. It leads
to efficiency, convenience and safety for both you and your child.
     But what about the downsides (负面影响) to kid cell-phone usage? Well, there're plenty of issues to
consider, and the following tips should be of help.
     Start small.  When thinking about getting your child's first phone, consider having your child first use
your cell phone for occasions when you'll need to know the time and place for pickup,  or in cases of
emergency. If the youngster handles your cell phone appropriately, consider allowing the child to have his
or her own phone with a small amount of voice minutes or text capability (容量) each month. This also
helps teach budgeting.
     Practice together.  Practice voice messaging and text messaging with your child. Both of you need to
become skillful at these techniques, and your child needs to see that you understand how to check his or
her texts, when the phone is being used and also who they're communicating with.
1. In the view of the author, ________.
A. every child should have his or her own cell phone
B. children should not use adults' cell phones
C. adults should be clear about whom their kids contact

2. When the author advises parents to start small, he means that parents should ________.
A. set a limit, on the phone bill
B. buy cell phones of small size
C. not use cell phones frequently
D. not teach teens to use cell phones
3. We can learn from the passage that________.
A. it's a waste of money for children to use cell phones
B. cell phones give children lots of benefits
C. it's impossible for people to go without cell phones nowadays
D. most children pay their phone bills by themselves
4. The passage mainly intends to ________.
A. advise buying teen cell phones
B. point out cell phones' advantages
C. help teens choose cell phones

     In cities across the United States, old factories, schools, railroad stations and other buildingsare being
renovated (翻新) for new uses. City planners and private inventors are finding that good buildings, no
matter how old , can be remodeled for new purposes. "If you'd asked someone four or five years ago
whether he'd rent an apartment in an abandoned piano factory or clothing warehouse (大商店), he'd
have thought you were crazy,," says a New York architect. "Today, many people are eager to do it."
     Only a few decades ago, renovation was unpopular and generally far more expensive than taking
down abandoned9 (抛弃) buildings and starting from the beginning. A change began in the 1990s with a
number of well-advertised projects. They included Chirardelli Square in San Francisco, where an old
chocolate factory was renovated and made into shops and restaurants, Trolley Square in Salt Lake City,
where an abandoned car warehouse became a shopping centre.
     What caused the change? " One reason is nostalgia(怀旧)," a san Francisco builder suggests.
"Maybe old is better than new, many people are saying. Feelings about preserving attractive or historic
buildings have changed a great deal." A second cause is economy. The cost of tearing down an old
building and constructing a new one from nothing now has risen to the point where it is often less
expensive to fix a solid older structure.
     Even when the costs of renovation are the same as or a bit more than the costs of putting up a new
building, fixing the old building may be better. Gradually, architects and builders are developing
knowledge about renovation and preservation, bringing imagination and creativity to the job.
1. In the United States, renovating old creativity to the job______.
A. has a long history    
B. is a new trend    
C. is still unpopular  
D. is out of date
2. What's the purpose of this passage? 
A. Call on people to renovate old buildings    
B. Report a change-renovation in America
C. Encourage people to make use of old building
D. Introduce a new method of renovating old buildings
3. Why did the passage mention Ghirardelli Square and Trolley Square? 
A. To introduce us some successful building renovations.
B. To make them known to the public.
C. To discuss whether they were worth restoring.
D. To tell us any old buildings can be renovated.
4. Renovating old buildings in the US needs architects who ______.
A. are skilled at tearing down old buildings  
B. are good at designing a new building
C. have rich imagination and creativity      
D. have nostalgia of the city
5. From the passage we can learn that________.  
A. building renovation is a better choice even if it costs more than building a new one
B. renovating a building is surely cheaper than putting up a new one
C. the main reason for building renovation is for economic purpose
D. there will be less new buildings in the world

     Leadership is the art of getting someone to do something you want done because he wants to do it.
People naturally want to follow a good leader. After meeting with an effective leader it is not unusual to
feel uplifted(情绪高涨), inspired, and motivated to work towards a common goal.
     An effective leader makes others feel good about themselves, as well as the work they are doing. The
leader has a vision(幻想)of what he or she wants to achieve, and can communicate that vision to others in a way that makes people want to be part of it. One thing a good leader typically does is to communicate
the big picture, so that each employee can see how the particular role he or she plays makes a
contribution to the final result.
     Good leaders are positive and optimistic when they speak about the future. Their enthusiasm wins
them plenty of supporters who help make their vision a reality.
     Good leaders also understand that different people are motivated by different things. For employees
motivated by a need for achievement, a leader explains how the task offers an opportunity to take on a
challenge with an achievable goal. And employees are motivated by hearing how they will be part of a
team of people working together.
     Good leaders will introduce employees by name first, rather than job titles. They refer to employees as
team members, companions, or colleagues, never as "servants". Words have power, including the power
to make people feel whether or not they are important to the success of an organization.
     Good leaders believe that every team member matters and set up environments that make everyone
feel important. It is no wonder they can attract the support they need to help them achieve their goals.

     "Mum, what does it mean when someone tells you that they have a skeleton(骨骼)in the closet
(衣橱)?" Jessica asked. "A skeleton in the closet?" her mother paused thoughtfully. "Well, it's something
that you would rather not have anyone else know about. For example, if in the past, someone in Dad's
family had been arrested for stealing a horse, it would be 'a skeleton in his family's closet'. He really
wouldn't want any neighbor to know about it."
     "Why pick on my family?" Jessica's father said with anger. "Your family history isn't so good, you
know. Wasn't your great-great-grandfather a prisoner who was transported to Australia for his crimes?" "Yes, but people these days say that you are not a real Australian unless your ancestors arrived as
prisoners." "Gosh, sorry I asked. I think I understand now," Jessica cut in before things grew worse.
     After dinner, the house was very quiet. Jessica's parents were still quite angry with each other. Her
mother was ironing clothes and every now and then she glared at her husband, who hid behind his
newspaper pretending to read. When she finished, she gathered the freshly pressed clothes in her arms
and walked to Jessica's closet. Just as she opened the door and reached in to hang a skirt, a bony arm
stuck out from the dark depths and a bundle of white bones fell to the floor. Jessica's mother sank in a
faint(晕倒), waking only when Jessica put a cold, wet cloth on her forehead. She looked up to see the
worried faces of her husband and daughter.
     "What happened? Where am I?" she asked. "You just destroyed the school's skeleton, Mum,"
explained Jessica. "I brought it home to help me with my health project. I meant to tell you, but it seemed
that as soon as I mentioned skeletons and closets, it caused a problem between you and Dad." Jessica
looked in amazement as her parents began to laugh madly. "They're both crazy," she thought.
1.According to Jessica's mother, "a skeleton in the closet" means ______.
A. a family honor
B. a family secret      
C. a family story    
D. a family treasure
2.What can we learn about some Australians' ancestors form Paragraph 2?
A. They were brought to Australia as prisoners.
B. They were the earliest people living in Australia.
C. They were involved in some crimes in Australia.

A. She was curious about it.
B. She planned to keep it for fun.
C. She needed it for her school task.
D. She intended to scare her parents.
