Since Art History class in college, I had always admired his works and I was lucky to see a large exhibition of his works when I was in my early 30s. It was at this event that I bought a print of his painting. “Snap the Whip.” I had it framed and until I retired from teaching it always hung in my classroom ‎ I thought it truly captured(捕捉) the freedom and fun of childhood. In the painting, a group of young boys are playing a game arm in arm on grass ground in front of a farm house. They are jumping and laughing wildly with great joy. One of the boys is falling down to the ground. They are not even wearing shoes!‎ During my last year of teaching, there was a young woman in her first year of teaching right next door to me and we got to be good friends. She had been an art student before taking up education. Her eyes were drawn immediately to this print when she entered my room. So on my last day of teaching, after the students had left, I took the painting off the wall and walked next door and gave it to her.‎ She was really surprised, but very pleased to have it. I was pleased that she liked it and all the students she would have would treasure(珍爱) it as much as I had. We found the perfect place for it on one of her walls and hung it together. Thank you for bring back this wonderful memory for me.‎ ‎25. What is the topic of the painting?‎ A. Homeless children. B. The nature of children.  ‎ C. Hard-working farmers.       D.

Studies have shown that people who live in warm, sunny climates are no happier than those in chilly, wet climates, he says. So the British talking about the weather may be making us gloomier（沮丧的） than the weather itself.‎ ‎       He said: “A study was done that measured the happiness levels of people in California compared to the North West. “They expected that people in California would be happier because it is more sunny, but they found that levels of happiness were exactly the same. If it is sunny every day you get used to it and the sunshine doesn’t make you any happier. Most of the time the weather doesn’t influence our well-being at all. But when we think about it, and think that it does, that’s when we get miserable.”‎ ‎       In his new book, Happiness By Design, Dolan argues that we can think ourselves happy by taking our attention away from what makes us sad.‎ ‎“Most of our anxieties come from what might be,” he argues. “If you want to be happier, pay attention to the things that make you feel good.”‎ ‎       He also claimed that a problem shared was not always a problem halved(减半). He believed that humans are actually very good at being able to get over tragedy(悲剧) and loss.‎ ‎       Professor Dolan also admitted for the first time that he had a stammer（口吃）, which had made his early life miserable. He added it only got better when he learned not to pay attention to his speech problem.‎ ‎       “Things are never as bad as you imagine them being,” he said.‎ ‎28. What has the research found?‎ ‎ A. British people don’t like to chat about the weather ‎ B. Cold days make people feel less happy ‎ C. People are more likely to be happy when the sun is shining ‎ D. Rainy days have no influence on people’s mood ‎29. What does the underlined word “miserable” in the second paragraph mean?‎ A. Good.    B. Unhappy.  C. Cheerful.       D. Confident.‎ ‎30. What is Dolan’s suggestion for being happy?‎ A. Don’t think too much about yourself.‎ B. Avoid comparing yourself to others.‎ C. Don’t focus on what makes you sad.‎ D. Avoid doing many miserable things.‎ ‎32. What do we know about Professor Dolan from the text?‎ ‎ A. Once he couldn’t speak fluently ‎ B. Once he didn’t want to share his problems with others ‎ C. He has the ability to get over bad things ‎ D. He has written many books about happiness D ‎ Dogs are likely to have complex emotions such as jealousy(嫉妒)and pride, according to a new scientific research.‎ ‎  Dogs feel very jealous when they find that they are unfairly treated. And they do not like seeing their owners being kind to other creatures, especially other dogs. They often react negatively(消极地)when their owners bring home new pets, the research found. “Dogs show a strong aversion to unfair treatment,” Dr. Friederike Range of the Vienna‎ ‎University said.‎ At first, people believed most animals lack(缺少)the “sense of self” , which is needed to experience so-called secondary emotions such as jealousy, embarrassment or guilt. These emotions are more complex than feelings such as anger or joy.‎ Besides dogs research, another research includes cows, horse, cats and sheep, and all the results have shown that animals are far more self-aware than we thought.‎ Dr Paul Morris, a psychologist at the University of Portsmouth who studies animal emotions, told The Sunday Times, “We are learning that dogs, horses, and perhaps many other species are far more emotionally complex than we ever realized. They can suffer simple forms of many emotions we once thought only primates (灵长类) could experience. ”‎ ‎     In research among dog owners, Dr Morris found almost all of them reported jealous behavior by their pets. The dog often tried to keep their owner away from a new lover in the early days of a relationship.‎ ‎     Behavioral experts suggest that owners should keep a close relationship with the dog as usual when a new pet or child comes along in order to prevent jealous activity from the dog such as interruptions with barking.‎ ‎32. What is the new discovery about the relationship between dogs and human?‎ ‎ A. Dogs usually have more emotions than humans ‎ B. Dogs are often treated unfairly by humans ‎ C. Humans are angry about their dogs’ negative reactions ‎ D. Dogs feel unhappy when their owners show kindness to other creatures ‎33. What does the underlined word “aversion” in the second paragraph mean?‎ ‎ A. Internet B. Dislike C. Concern D. Fear ‎34. What does the “the sense of self” in the third paragraph probably mean?‎ ‎ A. It is a complex feeling that belongs to humans ‎ B. It is a kind of ability to feel other people’s emotions ‎ C. It is a necessary awareness to feel some complex emotions D. It is a kind of emotion which is based on anger or joy ‎35. Which of the following statements is TRUE, according to the fourth and fifth paragraphs?‎ ‎ A. The research includes four kinds of animals ‎ B. Animals are more self-aware than humans ‎ C. Dogs experience more emotions than primates ‎ D. Animals are emotionally complex 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ ‎ How do I know if my older computer is worth repairing?
