But for people in Berlin, it was a real question that a local fox was behind a series of shoe thefts. About two weeks ago, Meyer, a resident of Berlin, noticed that one of his new running shoes had disappeared from his porch and he decided lo examine the theft, German news site reported. Meyer quickly found out that he was not the thief's only victim, and a tip helped him catch the fox. Days later, Meyer spotted the fox again; he followed it and discovered the fox's secret place of more than 100 shoes. Meyer got a photo of thieving fox and its ill-gotten shoes, which he shared on Twitter. The shoes contained sneakers, and slippers in a range of colors, shapes and sizes, though the most numerous shoes by far were Crocs. This isn't the first time that an urban fox has demonstrated a seeming shoes fetish(恋物). In August 2019, a fox in Melbourne, Australia, repeatedly visited a woman's porch and stole three boots over the course of a week. In a small town in Western Germany, a female fox stole about 110 to 120 shoes in just one night, possibly "for her babies to play with", according to Reuters. It's unknown whether all of these foxes were acting independently or whether their actions were linked, perhaps as part of an international shoe-stealing group with a bad purpose that humans can only imagine. （1）What happened to Meyer? A.He had his shoes stolen. B.He loved Crocs best. C.He was physically attacked by a fox. D.He moved out of Berlin and settled in a new place. （2）What did Meyer do when he found the fox's hiding place? A.He drove the fox away. B.He took a picture and posted it on social media. C.He sent some food to the fox. D.He followed the fox and found many other foxes. （3）Why does the author mention the incident in Australia and Western Germany? A.To analyze the reason for fox's behavior. B.To introduce more people's similar experience. C.To explain how many shoes were stolen by the fox. D.To prove some fox does have affection for shoes. （4）How does the author sound in the last paragraph? A.Delighted. B.Serious. C.Humorous. D.Terrified. 13.阅读理解 When I worked as a global media coordinator(协调员)for the United Nations several years ago, I organized biweekly conference calls, during which I would ask my colleagues around the world to provide information by particular deadlines. My colleagues almost always responded with a yes, but all too often, the deadlines came and went without the requested material. Finally, my South African boss had to explain what would never have occurred to me: in many cultures, it is rude lo say no. So some people would say yes to anything I asked, regardless of whether they had any intention of delivering. If communicating internally at the UN was challenging, interacting with the outside world was much harder. How would we reach people in places where newspapers are televisions are still not widely available? How could we generate media coverage there? Communicating globally may require changing the way you interviewing senior communication professionals in 31 countries about how they help clients modify their messages and strategies for particular cultures. I have found that some of the biggest factors to consider when communicating in a new culture involve emotion, context and social expectations. As an example of emotional differences, if I were to do a media interview in the US and become visibly angry at a reporter's question, I would be seen as unstable. By contrast, in the Middle East (an area including the countries of Southwest Asia and Northeast Africa), when people are talking about a heated issue, they tend to display powerful feelings—those who stay cool and calm while discussing such a problem may be viewed as untrustworthy. Another big cultural difference revolves around the level of "context" provided in a conversation. As an American, I am what is known as a low-context communicator (who communicates information in a direct manner that relies mainly on words rather than contextual elements such as tones and body language), so if I want something done, I say so frankly. In high-context cultures, as in Asia, people may do the opposite. You have to pick up on body language, tones, and other contextual cues to realize that your colleague who just said yes to you has actually communicated that she does not agree to your plan. （1）How did the author probably feel about those colleagues according to Paragraph 1? A.Confused and upset. B.Ashamed and guilty. C.Satisfied and delighted. D.Doubtful and uncertain. （2）What is often expected of Northeastern Africans when they discuss emotional questions? A.Mild curiosity. B.Remarkable ease. C.Emotional responses. D.Confident calmness. （3）What can we infer from the colleague mentioned in the last paragraph? A.She may be€ from the United States. B.She may prefer to speak in a direct way. C.She may be a high-context communicator. D.She may he influenced by low-context cultures. （4）What is most likely to he discussed in the paragraph that follows? A.The main content of the author's book. B.Cultural differences of social expectations. C.Different meanings of yes in different cultures. D.Important skills of communicating with colleagues. 14.阅读理解 From the moon to Mars, scientists have been hunting for alien life in the solar system for decades. However, Venus was not regarded as an ideal place because of its hot temperature and dry atmosphere. But a recent discovery of truces of a gas in the clouds of Venus has excited astronomers, as it may serve as a potential sign of life. On Sept 14, the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada announced that scientists have detected phosphine (磷化 氢) in the clouds of Venus. Phosphine is a color-less, toxic gas that has a smell of garlic. Though it contains poison, it is viewed as a possible sign of life because on Earth the gas is made by microorganisms(微生物) that live in oxygen-free environments. "I was very surprised-stunned, in fact," astronomer Jane Greaves of Cardiff University in Wales and lead author of the research told MSN," There is a chance that we have detected some kind of living organism in the clouds of Venus." This layer of clouds is about 48 kilometers above the Venus surface with its temperature ranging from 30 to 200 degrees Fahrenheit (about-1 to 93°C). Scientists have assumed that if life exists on Venus, this cloud deck(云盖) is likely the only place where it would survive. Scientists went through every possibility that could have led to the formation of phosphine gas in Venus clouds, including volcanoes, lightning strikes, small meteorites(陨石) falling into the atmosphere. But they ruled all of them out. It was concluded that there is no explanation for the existence of this gas in Venus clouds, other than the presence of life, USA Today reported. Although the detection of phosphine is not strong evidence for life, this finding is great enough to change scientists' view on Venus, which is though to be a completely inhospitable(不适合居住的) planet. （1）What does the underlined word "toxic" in Paragraph 2 mean? A.waste. B.poisonous. C.useful. D.clean. （2）What can we learn from the text? A.The cloud deck is rich in phosphine. B.The higher the cloud is above Venus, the warmer it is. C.Various living organisms have been detected oil Venus. D.If life exists on Venus, it is likely in the cloud deck. （3）What did scientists conclude about the phosphine gas detected on Venus? A.It could be formed as a result of the falling of meteorites. B.It could be a sign that there is life in Venus9 clouds. C.It could he caused by volcanoes and lightning strikes. D.It proves that Venus is another hospitable planet. （4）What is the text mainly about? A.A newly detected gas may indicate possible existence of life on Venus. B.Scientists found the most hospitable place on Venus. C.Phosphine that has been formed on Venus means alien life is present. D.The environment on Venus changed in favor of life. 五、任务型阅读（共 1 题；共 5 分） 15.任务型阅读 Online education is one of the many advances that technology has brought to us.________ It's really a great challenge to traditional education.

According to the research, these relaxing activities do support good health. Part of the reason for this connection is the result of social and economic differences among those who go to museums and those who don't. Wealth, they found, explains about 9% of the connection.
