My brothers and I all loved Brownie and did different things with her. One of us would walk her, another would feed her, and then there were baths, playing catch and many other games. Brownie, in return, loved each and every one of us. One thing that most touched my heart was that she would go to whoever was sick and just be with them. We always felt better when she was around.One day, as I was getting her food, she chewed up（咬破）one of Dad’s shoes, which had to be thrown away in the end. I knew Dad would be mad and I had to let her know what she did was wrong. When I looked at her and said, “Bad girl.” She looked down at the ground and then went and hid. I saw a tear in her eyes.Brownie turned out to be more than just our family pet. She went everywhere with us. People would stop and ask if they could pet her. Of course she'd let anyone pet her. She was just the most lovable dog. There were many times when we'd be out walking and a small child would come over and pull on her hair. She never barked (吠) or tried to get away. Funny thing is she would smile. This frightened people because they thought she was showing her teeth. Far from the truth, she loved everyone.Now many years have passed since Brownie died of old age. I still miss the days when she was with us.21. What would Brownie do when someone was ill in the family?A. Look at them sadly.B. Keep them company.C. Play games with them.D. Touch them gently.22.

When it comes to music, scientists find that nurture can overpower nature.A study shows musical preferences seem to be mainly shaped by a person’s cultural upbringing and experiences rather than biological factors. “Our results show that there is a profound cultural difference in the way people respond to consonant（和谐的）and dissonant（不和谐的）sounds, and this suggests that other cultures hear the world differently,” says Josh McDermott, a scientist in Cambridge.Some scientists believe that the way people respond to music has a biological basis and that this wouldoverpower any cultural shaping of musical preferences, effectively making them a universal phenomenon. Some musicians, by contrast, think that such preferences are more a product of one’s culture. If a person’s upbringing shapes their preferences, then they are not a universal phenomenon.The trick to working out where musical preferences come from was to find and test people who hadn’t had much contact with Western music. McDermott and his team travelled by aeroplane, car and canoe to reach the remote villages of the Tsimane people, who are largely isolated from Western culture.In their experiments, McDermott and his colleagues investigated responses to Western music by playing combinations of notes to three groups of people:the Tsimane and two other groups of Bolivians that had experienced increasing levels of exposure to Western music. The researchers recorded whether each group regarded the notes as pleasant or unpleasant.The Tsimane are just as good at making acoustic（声响的）distinctions as the groups with more experience of other types of music, the scientists find. Most people prefer consonant tones, but the Tsimane have no preference between them. “This pretty convincingly rules out that the preferences are things we’re born with,” McDermott argues.“Culture plays a role. We like the music we grew up with,”agrees Dale Purves, a scientist at Duke University. “Nature versus nurture is always a fool’s errand.”“It’s almost always a combination,”he adds.24. Why does the author mention Beatles in the first paragraph?A. To arouse reader’s interest.B. To stress the importance of music.C. To introduce the topic to be discussed.D. To encourage readers to listen to their music.25. McDermott would most probably agree that ________.A. people’s music preference is a universal phenomenonB. parents have nothing to do with children’s music preferenceC. the way people respond to music is biologically decidedD. Chinese and Japanese have different music preferences26. What do we know about the Tsimane in the experiment?A. They prefer consonant tones.B. They are born with excellent music talent.C. They do well in telling acoustic distinctions.D. They have never had contact with Western music.27. What does the underlined phrase “a fool’s errand” in the last paragraph refer to?A. Something meaningless.B. Something significant.C. Something reliable.D. Something sensitive.CGrown-ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced ever since. A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins "Twinkle, twinkle, little star" or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.One explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows: Once we have learned something, additional learning trials increase the length of time we will remember itIn childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, andplaying baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as "Twinkle, twinkle, little star" and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We not only learn but overlearn.The multiplication tables（乘法口诀表）are an exception to the general rule that weforget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the thingswe overlearn in childhood.The law of overlearning explains why cramming（突击学习）for an examination, thoughit may result in apassing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little overlearning, on the other hand, is really necessary for one's future development.28.What's the main idea of Paragraph 1?A. People remember well what they learned in childhood.B. Children have a better memory than grown-ups.C. Poem reading is a good way to learn words."D. Stories for children are easy to remember.29.The author explains the law of overlearning by ________.A. presenting research findingsB. setting down general rulesC. making a comparisonD. using examples30.According to the author, being able to use multiplication tables is ________.A. a result of overlearningB. a special case of crammingC. a skill to deal with math problemsD. a basic step towards advanced studies31.What is the author's opinion on cramming?A. It leads to failure in college exams.B. It's helpful only in a limited way.C. It's possible to result in poor memory.D. It increases students' learning interest.DStudent Membership – Cambridge Arts CinemaCambridge Arts Cinema is one of the art houses in Britain and home of the internationally celebrated Cambridge Film Festival.
