Cooking — it’s creative and fun
I first became interested in cooking one summer holiday when I was about 12. I was staying with my aunt, who is an experienced cook, and I wanted to 29 cooking for myself. She started by teaching me how to make pretty simple dishes at first. I found I really enjoyed cooking and I was soon doing things which were more difficult. Not everything I cooked was as 30 as my aunt’s dishes. My younger brother and sister complained（抱怨）about some of my dishes, but they usually ate the food quite happily. When I went back to school after summer, I decided to take cooking lessons and now I think I’m quite a skilled cook. When 31 come to my house, I often cook them something, because I find it really satisfying and relaxing. I think creating new dishes is interesting and it’s wonderful to see my family and friends enjoying a meal I’ve cooked. I would recommend（推荐）it as a hobby because for me it’s one of the most creative and 32 free-time activities that anyone can do.

How Smart Is Man’s Best Friend?
We feed them, we let them sleep in our beds, we play with them and we even talk to them. Of course, we love them. Any dog-owner will tell you that their pet (宠物) can understand the world around them. And they’re right. Scientists have found great ways to find out what human’s best friend can do.
The Science of Animal Cognition (认知)
Over the past several years, humans have learnt more about dog cognition with the use of MRI machines to scan dog brains(大脑). In a study done in 2015, Ragen McGowan, a scientist at Nestlé Purina specializing in dog cognition, found that a human’s presence leads to increased blood flow to a dog’s eyes, ears and paws, which means the dog is excited.
McGowan also studied what happened to dogs when they were being petted.
We’ve known for some time that for humans, petting a beloved animal can lead to lower rates of stress and worry. Well, it turns out the same is true for dogs. When humans pet dogs for 15 minutes or more, the dog’s heart rate decreases and it becomes less worried.
Another study found that dogs can not only tell the difference between happy and sad human faces, but also respond (回应) differently to them.
As Smart as Children
Dogs, as any dog-owner knows, are highly trainable. Scientists have found that dog intelligence（智商）is similar to that of a two-year-old human child. They also found that dogs could understand up to 250 words and hand signs. Even more surprising, dogs can actually count low numbers (up to five) and even do simple math.
And have you ever experienced the emotions（情绪）of your dog while you’re petting another animal or paying attention to something else? Do you imagine they feel something like human jealousy? Well, there’s science to back this up, too. Studies have found that dogs do, in fact, experience jealousy. Not only that, but dogs do their best to “handle” the thing that’s taking their owner’s attention — and if they have to get the attention back on them, they will.
The studies all make one thing clear: that humans may know much less about dog brains than we previously thought. As time goes on, more and more scientists are becoming interested in animal research, and with each new study done, we find out more about how our beloved pets think.
48. When humans pet their dogs, ____________.
A. dogs become shy B. dogs respond differently
C. they both become less worried D. humans have a higher rate of blood flow
49. From the passage, we know ____________.
A. dogs can increase their heart rate and show excitement
B. dogs can be trained to understand words and hand signs
C. scientists suggest dogs should experience human jealousy
D. humans have learnt enough about what dogs can do, think and feel
50. What is the passage mainly about?
A. How to treat our dogs well.
B. How to train dogs to be smarter.
C. An introduction to dog intelligence and emotion.
D. The differences between dogs’ abilities and human children’s.
六、阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。（共10分,每小题 2分）
To Have A Not-to-do List
Like most people, you probably have a to-do list to help you finish a task. However, I would also suggest you make a not-to-do list. This list works well with the to-do list and it might be even more important. Let me explain.
This is Mike. He loves video games and plays them every day. But he also has an important exam coming up. So Mike puts studying on his to-do list. That day, Mike picked up the books and studied for half an hour. Then he took a short break and played some games. However, he got so into the game that he played for three hours.
The next day, Mike took on the challenge of studying in a different way. He decided to make a not-to-do list as well. And what he wrote down was: “No video games until 7:00 pm. ” Mike went to study, did it for half an hour, and then took a break. However, he didn’t get on his computer like the day before because he didn’t allow himself to play at that time. Instead, he drank a glass of water. Then he returned to studying for three hours more on that day.
Mike realized that having no restrictions（限制）was the problem. He was always choosing between work and free time. Because enjoying himself was an easier choice, hardly any work got done as a result. So Mike made a not-to-do list.
Sometimes what you choose not to do matters more than what you decide to do. We shouldn’t just limit our “bad” behaviors but our “good” behaviors as well. For example, practicing the piano could be considered a good habit. But when you have other more important things in the moment, the piano becomes nothing more than a distraction（注意力分散）. However, there’s one thing that should never end up on your not-to-do list. That is to learn something new every day.
51. Did a to-do list help Mike prepare for his exam well?
52. What did Mike write on his not-to-do list?
53. How long did Mike study the next day?
54. According to Paragraph 4, what problem has Mike realized?
55. What does the writer want to tell us?

difficult (adj. ) season (n. ) many (adj. ) die (v. ) store (v. ) they (pron. ) |
Autumn arrived. That means piles of fresh, crackly leaves. Did you ever wonder why trees throw away an important part of their bodies each year? After all, wouldn’t it be similar to people losing all 1 hair—just as our part of the world gets colder?
While it might seem strange from the point of view of a human, to a plant, losing leaves makes perfect sense.
Trees are solar-powered. Each leaf 2 sunlight and helps change water and carbon dioxide into energy（能量） . It is called photosynthesis.
But there’s a problem. In parts of the world that experience 3 , winter means less and less sunlight each day. It also comes with freezing cold that can freeze the liquids（液体）inside leaves. These make it 4 for the trees to make energy.
A full-grown oak tree might have 5 than 60,000 leaves. Each one needs valuable nutrients (营养素) . So when autumn turns into winter, trees drop their leaves to cut cost. If it had to spend energy on all those leaves through the winter, not only would the leaves freeze, but the tree would 6 .

Micro-Habits Changed My Life
I am a true believer that when you get comfortable, you start to die. If you aren’t doing things to make yourself better, then you’re slowly getting worse.
A micro-habit is an action that requires the smallest effort（努力）to complete. The idea is that a micro-habit will slowly build on top of itself and result in something great over time.
My middle school gym teacher introduced me to micro-habits in the form of weightlifting. He said, “Imagine weightlifting as stacking（堆）pieces of paper. Every day you lift weights and just pretend you’re adding a piece of paper to a pile. On the first day, you start with one piece of paper. After a month of weightlifting, you could have as many as 30 sheets of paper stacked up. After several years of keeping up with weightlifting, you are going to have a serious stack of paper!”
The idea has stuck with me ever since, and I have tried to develop a number of micro-habits. These micro-habits have shaped the way I live and have helped me do things I wouldn’t have been able to do otherwise.
The first habit I started was reading. I have never been a big reader but decided I wanted to start reading more to learn new things. At first, I began reading one page a night before bed. Just one page, that’s it!
Anyone can read a page in a book. No matter what, I would read before bed every night. I found that reading a page in a book wasn’t what was important, but rather forming the habit. It’s nearly impossible to make an excuse not to take a minute to read a page in a book. Thus, the habit begins to form.
Sometimes it was a struggle (especially after long days), but remember—it’s only one page. At last, by adding only five minutes at a time, I was able to increase the total amount of reading from five minutes to forty-five minutes per night.
The beauty of micro-habits is that they’re so simple, and you can’t say no to them or make any excuse not to follow through with them. As humans, we often overestimate what we think we can complete, but then we give up the moment reality sets in, and life gets difficult.
Micro-habits are all about stopping you from giving up because of something being too ‘hard’.
When practiced consistently（持续地）, you can do something without even having to think about it. Micro-habits you probably already fixed into your daily life include brushing your teeth, taking a shower, making a morning cup of coffee, etc.
Pick something you want to do and improve on it. Then decide what micro-habits you can start today to help you reach your goal, and eventually, achieve your dream.
7. What do we know about micro-habits from the passage?
A. Micro-habits are easy to give up.
B. Micro-habits are “too-small-to-fail” daily tasks.
C. Micro-habits can change our lives in just a few days.
D. Micro-habits can be built by adding a piece of paper to a pile.
8. What is TRUE about the writer’s personal experience?
A. He practiced weightlifting for several years.
B. He could keep reading for 45 minutes finally.
C. He found it enjoyable to read one page every night.
D. He became better at weightlifting with each passing day.
9. What does the underlined word “overestimate” probably mean?
A. Mind. B. Accept. C. Increase. D. Misread.
10. The writer probably agrees that we should _________.
A. start small and then keep working
B. learn new things and gain more skills
C. make life easier by developing new habits
D. follow our dreams and try to change reality

And the weather … well, Paris is certainly hotter than London. In London, there are more wet days. So, people often bring an umbrella or a raincoat. It rains a lot in March and April. What about the culture? Well, … London has more museums and public libraries than Paris. And the people? … Mmm, people from London are generally more polite than people from Paris. They always say ‘please’ and ‘thank you’ when asking for something. They’re usually friendly. When you are in Paris, you will feel quite different. People from Paris are open and romantic. Also, they think having a good time is more important than anything else. But people from London work harder, and they earn more.
