23、ine.BPaul Lacy and his wife Dorothy Lacy are Americans. They are in their seventies. They have an embroidery workshop (刺绣工厂)in Hunan.The first time Dorothy went to Fenghuang was on a trip in 1999, and she fell in love with the old town and the Miao culture. In the following year, Paul and Dorothy de
24、cided to do something. With the help of a Chinese friend, the Lacys had their embroidery workshop in Fenghuang four years later.After Paul and Dorothy sold their things in America in 2006, the Lacys started to live in Fenghuang. At first, the Lacys had a hard time because of the language. When they
25、went shopping, they had to show the sellers pictures of what they wanted. As time went by, they made friends with the Miao people living there.Before they lived in Fenghuang, the two went to many places of China. For example, they traveled to cities, such as Beijing, Xian and Guiyang. “Among all tho
26、se places, we like Fenghuang best because of its beautiful and quiet environment and the rich culture of the Miao people.

30、s.B. Education.C. Health.D. People.CDo you have difficulty in remembering new words while learning English? I think most of your answers may be “yes”. It perhaps gives you a headache. However, if you know something about word formation.(构词法)，things may become easier. Lets take the word “homesick” as
31、 an example.Homesick is a compound word made up of HOME and SICK. You know what each word means on its own. But do you know the meaning when they are used together? The definition (定义）of homesick is SICK FOR HOME. It means you miss your home.Now think for a minute about SEASICK. If you change the wo
32、rd HOME into the word SEA, would the definition fit SEASICK? Does seasick mean SICK FOR SEA? It means something quite different. Seasick means SICK BY THE MOVE-MENT ON THE SEA. When you are homesick, the only place you want to be is at home. When you are seasick, the last place you want to be is the
33、 sea.Have you ever heard of a person being heartsick? Heartsick doesnt mean that something is wrong with a persons heart. People are heartsick when they are hurt deeply inside as if their hearts are broken.And we also have other compound words, such as cookbook and guidebook. Perhaps you may write d
34、efinitions for them. It must be helpful to know something like this in your English study.()31. Why did the writer write the first paragraph?A.To tell us English is not easy to learn.B.To let us know what the passage is about.C.To tell us something about the word “homesick”.D.To let us know some exa
35、mples about word formation.()32. What does the underlined sentence mean?A.If you are seasick, you love to stay at the sea most.B.If you are seasick, you are not good at swimming.C.If you are seasick, you dont want to stay on the sea at all.D.If you are seasick, you miss the sea very much.()33. Howma
36、ny compound words are mentioned in the passage?A. Three. B. Four. C. Five. D. Six.()34. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.Most people have difficulty in remembering new words.B.If Tom is homesick, he feels sick at home.C.Heartsick means that something is wrong with a persons
37、heartD.Word formation is the only way to learn new words.()35. Whats the best title for the passage?A.How to become interested in English.B.One good way to remember English words.C.How to learn English well.D.Some ways to improve your memory.DAccording to a new study, cats may be just as smart as do
38、gs. Both cats and dogs may have episodic memory (情景记忆)，similar to that of humans.The discovery shows cats can recall memories of positive experiences, such as eating a delicious snack. The study was a test of episodic memory. Episodic memory means memory of past experiences that happened at a specia
39、l time and place.In the test, people led cats to four open bowls of food. They allowed cats to eat from two of them. After fifteen minutes, empty bowls took the place of the old ones. Then the same cats returned to look for food again. They spent more time searching for the old bowls.It seemed that
40、the cats were able to remember the information of “what” and “where” about the bowls. This discovery suggests they may have episodic memory. However, its still not clear whether cats can truly experience past memories in the same way as humans do. “Its difficult to know whether the cats can subjecti
41、vely (主观地) remember the experience,” Nick Diamond, a researcher at the University of Toronto, explained.Still, the test plays a role in the development of memory research in animals. “It opens the door to new studies. How long can cats memories last? We may do some research on this in the future,” Y
42、ale University Professor Laurie Santos told BBC News. The road to new discoveries is long and difficult. People need to solve lots of problems and discuss along the way. Such studies lead us a step closer to the final success.()36. Which of the following animals may haveepisodic memory according to
43、the passage?A. Dogs.B. Pandas.C. Elephants.D.Sheep.()37. What kind of experiencescan cats recall?A. Similar.B.Sad.C.Silly.D.Happy.()38. What can we learn from the study?A.Cats can subjectively remember past experiences.B.The cats spent more time searching for old bowls.C. Cats are smarter than dogs
44、and as smart as humans.D.Cats must have episodic memory similar to that of humans.()39. What may scientists do in the future according to the last paragraph?A.They may do some research on whether dogs can recall memories like cats.B.They may do some research on why cats have short-term memories.C.Th
45、ey may do some research on how long cats memories can last.D.They may do some research on how humans experience past memories.()40. What does the writer think of the study?A.It has already caused many problems.B.It is helpful to memory research in animals.C.It has nothing to do with other studies.D.
