You will, of course, take them when you are not at home. If you often travel with your dog, there is no doubt that you should be just as concerned about your dog's safety as you would show for yourself and other passengers. There is no reason why your dog shouldn't be treated just like every member of the family and kept safe throughout your travels.There are many dangers that you may come across while you are traveling. These dangers include accidents and even sudden stops that can cause serious injuries. You have to keep in mind that these dangers that could affect you, could also affect your dog! Therefore, you should take proper safety measures to protect it.However, there are many ways for you to protect your dog while traveling. There are many companies that make seat belts and harnesses(保护带)designed to protect dogs while traveling. These devices are created and designed to keep dogs in place while a car is moving and act as lifesaving devices during accidents.A safe car travel with your dog is very important to your safety and also to your dog. If your dog is not harnessed down while driving, it could jump onto your lap and could cause you to have an accident. This could result in injury to yourself and also to your dog. Additionally, there are many countries that require that any animal in a car should be contained in a travel kit.21. We can learn from the first paragraph that .A. it is sensible not to take dogs during travelsB. dogs' safety should be taken seriously during the travelC. dogs don't like to travel with their ownersD. dogs are dangerous to passengers during the travel22. If your dog is free in your car while traveling .A. it can escape in an accidentB. it would put you in a dangerous situationC. both of you would be safe in an accidentD. saving it in an accident is easy23. Dogs should be protected while traveling by .A. using dogs' seat belts and harnessesB. designing special seats for dogsC. using special warning devicesD. teaching dogs some special skills24. The purpose of the article is to .A. remind people of travelling with their dogsB. prevent people from travelling with their dogsC. remind people to take care of their dogs while travellingD. tell people how to keep their dogs safe while travellingBThese days, people have found a new way in the fight against hunger, global warming and pollution. They do it by eating some edible(可以食用的) insects.These insects are considered as low-fat, high-protein food for people, pets and animals kept on the farm. They will help reduce greenhouse gas and pollution caused by animals. What's more, these insects can help create jobs in developing countries and feed millions of hungry people in the world as well.Eating insects is common in much of the world. But it is considered to be cruel in western cultures simply because countries with cold climate have fewer edible insect species, and these countries have not thought of eating insects as part of their cultures. So far there have been about two billion people who eat insects all over the world, mainly in Asia, Africa and Latin America.There are more than 1,900 edible insect species all over the world. Some may have already been in your food. For example, when people don't like man-made dyes(染料), they will turn to natural food coloring. So a red coloring(食物色素)produced from the cochineal, an insect from Peru, already puts the color in a popular brand of strawberry yogurt.Scientists who have studied the nutrition of edible insects have found that ants, grasshoppers and beetles contain enough protein but less fat, just like beef.Are you bored with bran(糠) as a source of fiber in your diet? If so, you can choose some edible insects, and they also contain useful minerals such as iron and zinc. With so many insects to choose from, how can you choose your right ones? Beetles and caterpillars are the most common meals among the edible insect species that people eat. Other popular insect foods are bees, wasps, ants, grasshoppers, locusts and crickets. Less popular are termites and flies.Edible insects are a money-maker. In Africa, four big water bottles filled withgrasshoppers will bring a gatherer a profit of $20. Some caterpillars in southern Africa are considered delicacies and command high prices. 25. Which of the following benefits of edible insects isn't mentioned in the passage? A. Increasing income of people. B. Protecting the environment. C. Providing food for hungry people. D. Building up people's health. 26. The example of the cochineal is mentioned in the passage to show that . A. yogurt colored in red attracts more customers B. there are many edible insect species in the world C. people have eaten some insect species in their diet D. edible insects are mainly from less developed countries 27. The most popular edible insect species is . A. flies B. beetles C. bees D. grasshoppers 28. What is the passage mainly about? A. Eating insects can help save the world. B. Insects contain many kinds of nutrients. C. Eating insects is popular in many countries. D. People hold different attitudes towards eating insects. C At least once a month one of my little kind kids Rachel and I try to have a father and daughter date night. Last night we were out for dinner together after doing some fun things. We talked about some of her kind activities she did at school for their 100 Acts of Kindness challenge her class had. It was great to listen to the little things she and her classmates did to spread kindness. Many times on our date nights we try to do an act of kindness of our own, as she is often my sidekick(伙伴) on our kindness adventures. My latest smile card is one about anonymously(匿名地) buying a stranger's meal so I asked Rachel if we should find someone in the restaurant and buy their dinner. She loved the idea so we chose an older couple sitting behind us. I had a few Smile Cards on me (as always !) so we discretely(分开地) told our server our plan. He was new and wasn't sure how to do it but said he would go and find out. When he dropped off the checks, he smiled at us and told us he would give them the班级__________姓名______________考号_________________……………………………………密……………………………封…………………………线………………………………………Smile Cards and that the world needed more people like us. Rachel got the biggest smile on her face when he said that to her and I love that he helped remind her that kindness matters. My daughter normally likes to stay and watch the reactions of our kindness “victims” but we had to get going.When we got home she was so excited to tell her Mom about what we did. My wife told Rachel how nice that was and how it would spread many smiles with the server, his manager, the couple and anyone else they told about the experience. We love any ripple of kindness we can send out into the world and I'm sure we made the couple smile with that one last night!29. What do Father and Rachel do at least once a month?A. They visit poor people.B. They have a father and daughter date night.C. They help those who are in trouble.D. They have a dinner out.30. How did father feel when he heard the kindness activities his daughter did at school?A. Delighted.B. Interested.C. Encouraged.D. Depressed.31. What's the meaning of the underlined word “victims” in the fourth paragraph?A. The people who were hurt.B. The people who were trapped.C. The people who were homeless.D. The people who were helped anonymously.32. What's the main idea of the passage?A. Kindness On a Father-Daughter Date Night!B. Smiling On a Father-Daughter Date Night!C. Friendship On a Father-Daughter Date Night!D. Spreading Smiles On a Father-Daughter Date Night!DParents are learning to understand their children in a special “parenting school”,which teaches adults how to instructively discipline their kids.Gao Baozhen, a middle school teacher, felt bitter when one of her students ran away from home, stealing from his parents 2,000 yuan. She was even more shocked when she heard that when he came home after he had spent the money, his father threw him a banquet(宴席). Another student demanded 50 yuan a month from his father as a condition for not being absent from school.So when Gao learned that a school for parents opened up, she encouraged her students'parents to attend. It was the Central Parent School, in Beijing's Chaoyang District. When the school opened, Liu Ming, the school's headmaster and a retired education official were prepared to face a series of parental problems.In China, the traditional principle of childraising is “A dutiful son gro ws under a big stick”. But the headmaster saw in modern China this principle no longer works. Instead, children quickly learn from the world around them and develop a sense of independence. Instead of a big stick and strict rules, they need love, respect and understanding. But some parents still hold the stick, taking it for granted that this is the best way to bring up their children.Liu and her colleagues noted another problem: parents only emphasize their children's textbook studies without allowing them time for other learning or outdoor activities.Permissiveness(放任) of parents and grandparents is another problem affecting the development of students. They think that permissiveness is the way to show love. Actually it does much harm.Among 159 middle school students whose parents went to the school, 145 said their parents changed and 154 students were glad their parents went.33. The parenting school is set up mainly to .A. teach parents how to love their childrenB. teach parents some principles of raising kidsC. prevent kids from running away from homeD. teach parents to discipline their kids properly34. What can we infer from the passage?A. Kids can benefit from adults' permissiveness.B. Parents should pay more attention to their kids' studies.C. The parenting school is successful so far.D. Only 159 parents attended the parenting school.35. Which is the best title of the passage?A. Why Attend a Parenting SchoolB. Parenting School Opened up in BeijingC. Students Facing ProblemsD.
