I am a city girl, and my idea of a big animal was a German dog. Meeting Dan changed everything. Early in our dating, he told me of his dream to own a farm.

“Don’t cows kick?” I worried when I saw the huge cattle. Dan laughed. “Don’t be afraid,” he said. “Just try milking a few times a day. You’ll get used to them.” After six months, I still was too nervous to try it.

One evening I heard the low mooing of the cows in their lot. Then I heard the cows again, but louder. I looked out of the window. A storm was coming. Suddenly I saw a cow running past the window. Another cow passed, and a third one moved into the yard. “Dan!” I shouted—then remembered he had gone into town.

I rushed back into the house and pulled on my coat. The noise had roused the children, and they called to me from upstairs. “Stay inside,” I shouted as I went out of the door, “no matter what!”

I was running to the yard. Suddenly the hundred cows turned and were coming in my direction! Beside me there was an old gate leading into an empty lot. I threw myself against the gate. Got it! And all at once the cows entered the lot.

When Dan got home, I told him the story. “You rescued a whole herd of cows!” Dan said. Lying in bed beside Dan, I felt safe and comfortable.

The next time I went out into the lot, I felt a little bigger beside the cows. And it wasn’t too long before I started milking.

21. The writer was brave to start milking thanks to _______.

A．her children’s help	B．a danger she experienced
C．her husband’s encouragement	D．getting on with the cows long

22. What is the right order in which the writer’ story happened?
a. She was married to Dan.
b. She dreamed of a German dog.
c. She saved a whole herd of cows.
d. She and her husband began to run a farm.
e. She was brave to start milking.
f. A storm roused the herd of cattle.

A．badfce

B．cbdfae

C．cbefda

D．bcaefd

23. The underlined sentence “I felt a little bigger beside the cows” shows the writer _____.

A．felt the cows grew a little bigger

B．felt she was a bit bigger than the cows

C．was able to fight against the cows.

D．was not as afraid of the cows as before

Some birds are masters of crime (犯罪). That means these species steal food from other birds and get away with it. Scientists have long wondered what these birds have in common. A new study suggests that big body size does not predict bad behavior. Instead, it is the size of the birds’ brains that matters most.

To learn more about what makes some birds tend toward a life of crime and how they steal food from other birds, scientists analyzed 856 published reports of thieves. Researcher Julie says she started the project after watching birds steal dry dog food out of unattended bowls. She read about some dramatic examples of thieves, including birds that steal food from others flying in midair or bending through the sky. She learned that members of some species disturb other birds until they spit up food in their mouth.

Families that steal also tend to eat fish, mice, and other vertebrates (脊椎动物) instead of just insects. These meatier (多肉的) meals are hard to catch, and they deliver lots of valuable calories, so they are tempting to steal.

Finally, birds that steal tend to have big brains in relation to their bodies. That may seem surprising, since human bullies (欺凌弱小者) are often thought to be stronger in size.

But for birds, stealing isn’t about strength. It takes a clever brain to get food out of another hungry bird’s claws, especially if that bird is bigger than you are.

28. The best title for the passage can be _______.

A．Diet Habits of a Feather

B．Hunting Skills of a Feather

29. What is the key factor of the birds’ stealing food?

A．Body size.	B．Living environment.

30. It can be inferred from the passage that _____.

A．birds’ stealing isn’t related to their environment

B．for birds, stealing is about cleverness and tricks

C．birds steal food only from those that are smaller in size

D．birds that steal have small brains for their bodies

Like human beings, dogs may also catch a cold because of cold weather, wet conditions or can also get it from other sick dogs. If a dog has a running nose and watery eyes, or coughs, then it is quite probable that the dog has caught a cold. A dog can get over a cold after a few days.     31    The following are some of the things you can do if your dog gets a cold.

●Feed your dog with food that has proper nutrients.       32     This is because it can be harmful to his health. Instead, try to give him food, which is either recommended by the doctor or is healthy for your pet.

●Keep your dog warm. The best place for your dog in winter is inside your house. Don't keep him outside when it's cold and wet.       33     Keep him warm with the help of carpets at home. This will make him comfortable and help him to recover fast.

●    34     Water can be the best choice but you can also add broth (肉汤) in water. Check out the water you are feeding him if it is very cold and then just warm it a bit.

●Use steam treatment. Just fill your bathroom with steam    35    . Do it nearly two to three times a day and you’ll see your dog get better.

A．Healthy food can really do wonders.

B．It can be very dangerous for its health.

C．And then leave your dog in it for 15 minutes.

D．Don't experiment with any food at this time.

E．Make your dog drink more water as it helps a lot.

F．Making it rest is the best way to help the body to overcome the problems of cold.

In 2002, an Australian man went to his friend’s 21st birthday party. He got drunk, fell off some steps and cut his lip. He took a picture of his injuries and shared it with his friends online. “And sorry about the focus,” he wrote, “it was a selfie (自拍).” That was the first recorded use of the word “selfie”, according to some experts at Oxford Dictionaries.

Oxford Dictionaries declared “Selfie”. In recent years, the act of taking a picture of oneself with a mobile phone, placing the subject center-stage, has won great popularity with everyone from Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II to U.S. President Barack Obama joining in.

But the rise of selfie photography in some of the world’s most beautiful, and dangerous places has also inspired a lot of risk-taking behavior, such as hanging from a tall building, standing in front of a rushing train and crossing a busy street. People who get addicted will never stop taking selfies, completely ignoring where they are. In fact, there have been several reports about people losing their lives while taking selfies. Several governments have now begun treating selfie as a serious threat to safety, warning visitors to pay attention to the dangers when taking selfies.

“Walt Disney World is also banning selfie-sticks from its theme parks because selfie-sticks have become a growing safety concern for our guests,” Disney World spokeswoman Kim Prunty said under the new policy, guests will be checked for the equipment during the routine bag check that happens near the parks’ entrances.
