19、ing. I could get through a whole book in a day， and used to beg my parents every night to let me stay up late so that I could just finish my chapter. From fairy-tales to thrillers， non-fiction to plays, I enjoyed reading any literature that I could get my hands on.However, while there are many books

20、 for younger children， once you reach your mid-teens the choices become limited. I found myself choosing between books for children that were simple and not that interesting, and adult books that I couldnt quite understand.This lack of choice eventually led me to read less and less。 When I was in se

21、condary school， the only books I read were ones we were assigned in English class, and I was never very enthusiastic about my teachers choices。 I thought too much discussion of symbolism and themes ruined the book. Maybe the sky being blue didnt represent anything; maybe it was just a description!Fo

22、rtunately, I realized quickly that deciding to go to university meant I had signed up for four years of reading books。 I chose a French literature module in my first year。 I started out， thinking I wouldnt enjoy any of the works we were studying over the course of the year。 However， I soon realized

23、that at a university level, the discussion was more fruitful and I found I had a lot to say！ And being able to discuss my thoughts with others meant I could better understand the subtle aspects of the plot: yes, even the symbolism and themes.I began reading again for pleasure， starting with Malcolm

To know more about it， scientists at Syracuse University in New York recently did a research and came up with som

28、e surprising findings。People who post selfies and use editing software to make themselves look better show behavior connected to narcissism（自戀)， the researchers said。 Makana Chock, a professor from Syracuse University, said because social media is mostly used by people to share unimportant informati

29、on about their lives， it is a good place for people to “work towards satisfying their own vanity?！?Those “l(fā)ikes” under their Facebook selfies make them feel good。Besides, people who post group selfies show a need for popularity and a need to belong to a group, the research found. Some people feel “p

30、eer（同伴） pressure” to post selfies and some follow the popular belief that if there is no picture of an event or experience, it did not really happen. “Anyway， it shouldnt be seen as negative. People get sense of satisfaction especially when they get likes. And it does no harm,” Chock said。Other find

31、ings from the study include: There are no major differences on how often men and women post selfies and how often they use editing software. But men who post selfies showed more of a need to be seen as popular than women who posted selfies.Chock said posting selfies on social media is not all that d

32、ifferent from what people have done for many years。 On trips and special events, our parents and grandparents used cameras instead of phones to take photos。 They would bring back photos to show friends and family。 You had no choice but to look at them。 You probably commented about how nice everyone

37、s。D. youd better comment on everyone.DNew research has found that grey seals can simulate（模仿） human speech and songs. The study carried out by Dr Amanda Stansbury and Professor Vincent Janik， at the University of St Andrews， found that grey seals use the same sound production system as humans due to

38、 having similar vocal tracts（聲道）.Three young grey sealsZola, Gandalf and Janicewere monitored from birth by Stansbury and Janik to determine their natural talents. Once this process was complete, the researchers began teaching the seals to simulate common seal sounds or noises a seal might normally

39、hear from a herd mate in the wild。 Fish was used to encourage the seals to come out of the water and sing a series of notes。 Stansbury would record the seals own sounds and play them back。 The seals quickly learnt that if they sang back the same notes, they would be rewarded with fish.Once the seals

40、 were familiar with this process and could easily copy these basic sounds， Stansbury and Janik used higher and longer tones(音調(diào))and unfamiliar vowels（元音）from human speech. The seals were then rewarded for matching these new sounds. Stansbury even used some combinations to simulate songs that no seal

41、would be expected to produce under natural circumstances. Zola had a gift for copying up to ten notes of songs such as Twinkle， Twinkle， Little Star and the theme song of Star Wars. Gandalf and Janice were better at accurately reproducing combinations of human vowel sounds.Stansbury said, “I was ama

42、zed how well the seals copied the model sounds we played to them. Copies were not perfect, but given that these are not typical seal sounds, it is pretty impressive。 Our study really shows how flexible seal voices are。”After one year of working with the researchers, the seal pups were released back

43、into the wild。 “This study gives us a better understanding of the development of vocal learning， a skill that is important for human language development.” Janik believes this knowledge can help to develop new methods to study speech problems.32. What is the first paragraph mainly about？A. A researc

44、h finding on grey seals。B. Grey seals learning environments。C。 Humans sound production system.D。 A comparison of humans and grey seals。33.

45、 we find about Zola based on the research?A. It can copy some musical sounds played to her。B. It is good at copying human vowel sounds。C。 It is smarter than Gandalf and Janice.D. It likes singing childrens songs。35。 What does Janik think of the research result？A。 It shows the living environments of

46、grey seals.B。 It leads to a better understanding of human evolution.C。 It raises an awareness of the need to protect grey seals。D。 It inspires new methods for research on speech problems.第二節(jié)（共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分)根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng).選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。 What should you think about in trying to find your

48、specially strong or weak subjects but your records show a general good result. 37 。 Knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details。 This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.

51、ce any weaknesses than to pretend they do not exist。 Your school record， for instance, may not be too good， yet it is an important part of your background。 You should not feel sorry for it。 40 .A.

She was 41 away from me，

54、 her shoulders dropped and her hands relaxed。 I parked the car and she turned toward me。“Okay, were home， I said, 42 that now was her time to get out and let me be on my own。 She sniffled (抽鼻子) and 43 her hair behind her ears to show her tearful eyes and moist cheeks。 She had been crying.“Mom！ Why a

57、o enter the next stage of my life, 50 she counted down with fear and headache. The delight and freedom I had previously felt were gone， 51 by an odd sense of sorrow。We hugged.
