But rats may soon be man's new good friends. What happens after an earthquake? We send in rescue dogs. Why? Because they can smell people. Dogs save lives. They help rescuers to find living people. But dogs are big and they can't get into small spaces. So now a new research project is using a smaller animal to save lives: the rat. How does it work? First, the rat is trained to smell people. When this happens, the rat's brain gives a signal. This is sent to a small radio on its back, and then the rescuers follow the radio signals. When the rat's brain activity jumps, the rescuers know that someone is alive. The rat has smelled that person. Although there are already robots which can do this job, rats are better. Robots' noses don't work well when there are other smells around. Rats are good at that. Rats can also see in the dark, they are cheaper and quicker to train than dogs, and unlike robots, they don't need electricity! The "rat project" is not finished. But a scientist says, "It would be great. A rat could get into any place we couldn't get to, and a rat would get out if it wasn't safe." Perhaps for the first time in history, people will be happy to see a rat in a building （ but only after an earthquake, of course） . （1） Where do you think you can find this passage? A.

Rats for rescue 【答案】 （ 1） C （2） C （3） A （4） D 【解析】 【分析】主要讲了老鼠是怎样营救人的。 （1）推断题。根据全文可知主要讲了老鼠救人，所以可以在关于科学的报纸上发现，故 选 C。 （2）细节题。根据 This is sent to a small radio on its back, and then the rescuers follow the radio signals.可知信号被发送给收音机，而没有说老鼠和收音机一样聪明，故选 C。 （3）细节题。根据 "It would be great.

Boxing Day is usually celebrated on December 26th, which is the following day after Christmas Day. However, strictly speaking, Boxing Day is the first weekday after Christmas. Like Christmas Day, Boxing Day is a public holiday. This means it's a non-working day in the whole of Britain. When Boxing Day falls on a Saturday or Sunday, the following Monday is the public holiday. The exact origin （起源） of the holiday is unclear. One of the thoughts is that during the Middle Ages, when great sailing ships were setting off to discover new land, a Christmas Box was placed by a priest （神父） on each ship. Those sailors who wanted to ensure a safe return would drop money into the box. It was sealed up and kept on board until the ship came home safely. Then the box was handed over to the priest in exchange for the saying of a mass of thanks for the success of the sailing. The priest wouldn't open it to share the contents with the poor until Christmas. One more thought is about the "Alms Box" placed in every church on Christmas Day. Worshippers （做礼拜的人） put gifts for the poor into it. These boxes were always opened the day after Christmas. That is why that day became known as Boxing Day. Today, many businesses, organizations and families try to keep the traditional spirit of Boxing Day alive by donating （捐赠） their time, services and money to aid Food Banks, providing gifts for the poor, or helping families in need. Besides, spending time with family and shopping are popular Boxing Day activities now. （1） If Christmas Day is on a Saturday, Boxing Day will be celebrated on____________. A. December 25th B.

A. to praise the kindness of priests B. to introduce the origins of Boxing Day C. to call on people to help the poor D. to compare Boxing Day with Christmas Day 【答案】 （ 1） C （2） D （3） A （4） B 【解析】 【分析】文章大意：在英国。节礼日通常在 12 月 26 日举行，这是圣诞节后的第 二天。但是，严格来说，节礼日是圣诞节后的第一个工作日。像圣诞节一样，节礼日也是 一个公共假日。这意味着这是整个英国的非工作日。当节礼日是星期六或星期日时，下一 个星期一是公共假日。 （1）细节理解题，根据 When Boxing Day falls on a Saturday or Sunday, the following Monday is the public holiday. 可知，如果圣诞节在星期六，节礼日就在星期一，也就是十二月二十七 日，故答案是 C。 （2）细节理解题，根据 Those sailors who wanted to ensure a safe return would drop money into the box. 可知水手往节礼箱里方硬币是为了祈求航行安全，故答案是 D。 （3）词义猜测题，根据 The priest wouldn't open it to share the contents with the poor until Christmas.可知回来之后让神父打开箱子，可知之前箱子被密封了，故答案是 A。 （ 4）主旨大意题，根据文章介绍了节礼日的起源，故答案是 B。 【点评】考查阅读理解。本文涉及细节理解题、词义猜测题和主旨大意题。细节理解题要 可以直接从文中寻找答案；词义猜测题，需要根据单词所在的语境，进行合理想象，确定 单词的意思；主旨题需要通读全文，了解大意之后找出中心思想。 14． 阅读理解 A zero-waste life is a lifestyle that hardly creates any rubbish.

"Right, so you were driving at a speed of about 50 km/h?" he asked again. I was a little annoyed because I felt he wasn't listening to me carefully. So I shouted, "No! I was going about 55 km/h." "OK, if that's the way you want it," the officer simply replied. Because the city speed limit is 50 km/h, I only got paid from my insurance （保险） company for the damage to my car, but the other driver's insurance company couldn't pay me due to my speed. I didn't realize it at the time, but it turned out I was getting him wrong. He didn't mention the 5 km/h, but he certainly knew something about the rules of the insurance.
