16、 life.C. Show appreciation of what we have. D. Never compare ourselves with others.CEdmund Halley was an English scientist who lived over 200 years ago. He studied the observations of comets(彗星) which other scientists had made. The orbit of one particular comet was a very difficult mathematical prob
17、lem. He could not figure it out. Neither could other scientists who dealt with such problems.However, Halley had a friend named Newton, who was a brilliant mathematician. Newton thought he had already worked out that problem, but he could not find the papers on which he had done it. He told Halley t
18、hat the orbit of a comet had the shape of an ellipse(椭圆).Now Halley set to work. He figured out the orbits of some of the comets that had been observed by scientists. He made a surprising discovery. The comets that had appeared in the years 1531,1607 and 1682 all had the same orbit. Yet their appear
19、ances had been 75 to 76 years apart.This seemed very strange to Halley. The different comets followed the same orbit. The more Halley thought about it, the more he thought that there had not been three different comets, as people thought. He decided that they had simply seen the same comet three tim
20、es. The comet had gone away and had come back again.It was an astonishing idea! Halley felt certain enough to make a prediction(预言) of what the comet would happen in the future. He decided that this comet would appear in the year 1758. There were 53 years to go before Halleys prediction could be tes
21、ted. In 1758 the comet appeared in the sky. Halley did not see it. for he has died some years before. Ever since then that comet has been called Halleys comet, in his honour.28.

23、s mathematician. B. Halley made his discovery by doing experiments.C. Edmund Halley was an American scientist.D. The orbit of a comet had the shape of a circle. DScientists have already studied how dogs respond to peoples behavior and speech. But researchers are just scratching the surface of human-
24、cat interactions. House cats do appear to respond to the expressions on peoples faces. Cats can also tell different human voices. But can cats recognize their own names? Saito, a psychologist at Sophia University in Tokyo, and her colleagues decided to find the answer. They asked the owners of 77 ca
25、ts to say four nouns of similar length followed by the cats name. Cats gradually lost interest in each random(随机的) noun. But when the owner said a cats name, the cats reacted strongly. They moved their ears, head or tail, changed their back paws position. And, of course, they miaowed. These findings
26、 mean that cats join the ranks of animals that have shown some sort of response in experiments to the names people give them. Those animals include dogs, dolphins, apes and parrots. Its hard to compare the number of words across species, though. Some dogs, for example, can tell the difference betwee
27、n hundreds of human words. The study makes a strong case that cats are perfectly capable of recognizing their own names. Getting a treat or hug as a reward is part of how cats learn to recognize a name. However, owners may also use their cats name in a negative setting, like yelling at Fluffy to get
28、 off the stove. As a result, cats can probably learn to associate these familiar utterances with good and bad experiences, Saito notes. And that might not be great for human-cat relations. So only using a cats name in a positive context and using a different term in a negative context could help cat
29、s and humans communicate more clearly. So cats may recognize their names. But will they come when called? Dont get your hopes up.32.What made cats react strongly according to Saitos study?A. Their owners.B. A random noun.C. Their own names.D.A delicious meal.33.The findings show _.A. all dogs will r
30、espond on hearing their namesB. its extremely difficult to tell cats names from dogsC. scientists know how to tell the difference between animalsD. there is difference in the number of words recognized among animals34. Which of the following could replace the underlined word utterances in Paragraph
31、4?A. wordsB. situationsC. observationsD. owners35.What should people avoid to improve human-cat communication?A. Giving a treat or hug as a reward.B. Calling their name in a positive context.C. Using a different term in a negative setting.D. Associating their name with bad experiences.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分
