Ive found out what they want and

17、given it to them.When you get a new puppy, like a small baby, its personality is already somewhat established. It may be a “ screamer” or a “cuddler (摟抱型)”or a quiet dog or an energetic dog. All puppies need sleep in massive (大量的) quantities. An energetic puppy will run around and suddenly fall down

18、 sound asleep. A quieter puppy will start to show signs of tiredness, then find a place to fall asleep. A “ screamer” will scream for attention: Puppy cries and yelps (狗吠)， while a quiet puppy will usually give up and accept being put in a box. A “cuddler” will need your body, either your lap or nex

19、t to you, to sleep soundly.Puppy language is very simple. It is like a babys cries. They cry when they are in need or in pain; in need of company, in need of food, in need of sleep, etc.As your dog grows, you should learn what they are saying to you, as they learn to take their cues(暗示) from you. If

20、 you rub(揉) your puppys stomach, and he likes it, he will learn to roll over and “ask” you for a stomach rub. Almost all dogs will “ask” to go out. In some cases, this consists of standing or jumping at a door. If you ignore this request, your dog will make it again, more firmly.36The underlined wor

23、e passage in order to tell us _.Ahis experience of raising dogsBhow he likes to raise dogsCsomething about a dogs language and personalityDdogs are very cleverBA year ago August, Dave Fuss lost his job driving a truck for a small company in west Michigan. His wife, Gerrie, was still working in the l

24、ocal school cafeteria, but work for Dave was scarce, and the price of everything was rising. The Fusses were at risk of joining the millions of Americans who have lost their homes in recent years. Then Dave and Gerrie received a timely gift$7,000, a legacy (遺產(chǎn)) from their neighbors Ish and Arlene Ha

25、tch who died in an accident. “It really made a difference when we were going under financially，” says Dave.But the Fusses weren't the only folks in Alto and the neighboring town of Lowell to receive the unexpected legacy from the Hatches. Dozens of other families were touched by the Hatches'

26、 generosity. In some cases, it was a few thousand dollars; in others, it was more than $ 100,000.It surprised nearly everyone that the Hatches had so much money, more than $ 3 millionthey were an elderly couple who lived in an old house on what was left of the family farm.Children of the Great Depre

27、ssion, Ish and Arlene were known for their habit of saving. They liked comparison shopping and would routinely go from store to store, checking prices before making a new purchase.Through the years, the Hatches paid for local children to attend summer camp when their parents couldn't afford it.

28、“Ish and Arlene never asked if you needed anything，” says their friend Sandy Van Weelden. “They could see things they could do to make you happier, and they would do them.”Even more extraordinary was that the Hatches' had their farmland distributed. It was the Hatches' wish that their legacy

29、a legacy of kindness as much as one of dollars and centsshould enrich the whole community and last for generations to come.Neighbors helping neighborsthat was Ish and Arlene Hatch's story.40According to the text, the Fusses _.Awere employed by a truck companyBwere in financial difficultyCworked

32、y Van Weelden got a legacy from the Hatches.DThe Hatches would like the neighbors to follow their example.CThe writings of Shakespeare are today little read by young people in Britain. His young readership is limited to those who choose to study literature at university.Shakespeare's work, toget

33、her with most other classics, is seen as remote, and written in a 400­year­old version of English that is about as inviting as toothache.Still, in British schools, it is compulsory to study the bard (詩人), and when something is made compulsory, usually the result is boredom, resentment (憎恨)

34、 or both.This was my experience of the classics at school. But when I reached my late teenage years, I had a change of heart. Like every other young person since the dawn of time, the world confused me. I wanted answers, so I turned to books to find them.I went on to take a PhD in literature and hav

35、e taught it in Britain and China. I have never regretted it. There is something in literature that people want, even if they don't read books. You see this in the popularity of TV and movie adaptations of great works, the recent film version of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice being a_case_

36、in_point. These popular adaptations may help increase people's interest in the classics.Reading a simplified Romeo and Juliet may perhaps lead to a reading of Shakespeare's actual play. If that is the case, then I welcome the trend. But do not make the mistake of thinking that it is the same

37、 thing. Shakespeare is a poet. His greatness is in his language. Reading someone else's rewriting of his work is like peeling a banana, throwing away the fruit, and eating the skin. Take on the original. It really is worth the effort.44Which of the following is true according to the passage?AThe

38、 language used in classics is no longer in use today.BBritish students usually find compulsory reading dull.COnly those studying literature read Shakespeare's works.DFor British people, Shakespeare's works are no longer classics.45The popularity of TV and movie adaptations of great works may

41、passed from poet to poet through the ages. It is only recently that poetry is something that one reads alone, rather than reciting to an audience. At some point in the education of any student majoring in poetry, one will attempt to memorize a poem, and possibly recite it to someone else.Chances are

42、 that you have already memorized thousands of lines of verse in the form of lyrics. How did you memorize the lyrics of songs? You simply listened to songs you liked over and over again until you almost couldnt help but have them memorized. Memorizing poetry isnt much different. You start with a poem

43、 you like, recite it to yourself over and over again, and you get to know it.One of the best aspects of learning a poem by heart is that you get to take a poem inside of yourself. It becomes a part of you. When you memorize a poem, it is no longer just a poem, but yours. Its in your head, and you ca

44、ll it up from memory as you would in any other experience.Also, memorizing a poem is a great way to truly get to understand languages, and consider every phrase, line and word. You can practice varying the sounds, adding pauses and emphasis in different spots to try to find the most accurate tone fo

45、r the poem. In a way, you never really know a poem until youve memorized it. Once you know it, youll be able to recite it, like a jazz musician improving(即興創(chuàng)作)inside a songs boundariesadding his own words or re-wording a section to make it his own.48.According to the text, in the past poems were_.A.

46、 usually written in the form of songs by some musiciansB. mainly circulated among poets by oral communicationC. seldom chosen as teaching materials in most universitiesD. only something that people enjoyed alone by themselves49.Memorizing the lyrics of songs is mentioned in the text to_.A. emphasize

47、 the importance of repetition(重復(fù)) in memorizing poemsB. describe the similar characteristics of poems and popular songsC. correct students wrong idea that reciting poems is very boring.D. encourage students to develop the habit of listening to music50.What can we infer from the text?A. Varying the o

48、riginal sounds can damage the beauty of poetry.B. Readers can change the language of a poem to remember it.C. Many college students choose to major in literature at present.D.
