V.Reading comprehension (阅读理解)
A. Choose the best answer (根据以下内容，选择最恰当的答案)(10分)
In many countries, pets are well loved. In America, 95 percent of pet owners think of their animals as family members. About half buy them birthday gifts. And it’s a two-way street. People who have pets tend to have lower blood pressure. They also have a lower heart-disease risk.
Scientists are finding more and more evidence that animals can also help improve mental health. Some clinics have been using “pit therapy”（宠物疗法） alongside traditional medicine. Here is a look at some of the cures.
Rabbits
In one study, scientists told a group of stressed-out adults to pat a rabbit and a rabbit toy. The toy had no effect. Touching the living rabbit, however, reduced anxiety（焦虑）.
Crickets（蟋蟀）
Animals don’t have to be soft and lovely to help. In a 2016 study, elderly people who were given five crickets in a cage felt happier after eight weeks. The act of caring of an animal seemed to make the difference.
Horses
Horses are among the most-studied therapy animals. In Europe, they have been involved in medical treatment plans since the 1860s. Activities like brushing the fur of a horse have been shown to reduce anxiety in people of all ages.
Fish
One of the study focused on people who had Alzheimer’s disease（阿尔兹海默氏病）. When they dined in front of a tank of colorful fish, they ate more.
Dogs
Children who struggle with reading are less anxious when they read aloud to a trained dog. Their attitudes change and their skills improve.
34．About ________ of pet owners in America buy their pets birthday gifts.
A．one-third B．50 percent C．95 percent D．three quarters
35．The underlined phrase “two-way street” (in paragraph 1) means “________.”
A．Pets can reduce not only their owners’ blood pressure but also their risk of heart disease
B．Pets can improve not only their owners’ physical health but also their mental health
C．Pets are well loved both in the East and in the West
D．People love pets, and pets do their owners lots of good
36．According to the passage, people who were given crickets felt happier after a few weeksbecause ________.
A．the ate more B．they spent time caring for an animal
C．they exercised more D．they changed their attitudes

D．it is still a mystery whether keeping pets brings benefits

The fast development of technology has made many changes in our daily life. Some people believe that schools will not be necessary in the near f 46 . They say that because of the Internet and other new technology, there is no need for school buildings, classes or teachers. P 47 this will be true one day, but if the world had no schools, I couldn’t imagine how our society would be.
In fact, we should learn how to use new technology to make schools better. We should invent a new kind of school that is linked (连接) to libraries, museums, science centres, labs and even panies should c 48 learning programmes for schools. Scientists could give talks through the Internet. TV networks and local TV stations could develop programmes about the students who are studying at school. Labs could set up websites to s 49 new technology so that students could see it on the Internet.
Is this a daydream No. This is beginning to happen in many cities. In those cities, learning can take place at home, at school and in the o 50 . Businesses provide programmes for schools and society. Schools provide computer labs for people with their own computers at home. Everyone can visit faraway libraries and museums as easily as nearby ones and everyone can go on the Internet, and older people use it as much as y 51 ones. How will this new kind of school change the usual way of learning It is too early to be sure, but it is fantastic to think about it. Technology will change the way we learn; schools will change as w 52 ; and we will all learn something from the Internet.

Can you imagine 40, 000 people throwing 130 tons of tomatoes at one another in the middle of town square That’s exactly what happens on the last Wednesday of August in Bunol, a small town near Valencia, Spain.
In 1945, during a local festival, some dissatisfied young men had a quarrel with some officials in the town’s main square. There was a vegetable stand nearby, so they picked up tomatoes and used them as weapons. This is the most popular story about how the Tomatina started.
The following year the young people repeated the fight on the same Wednesday of August, only this time they brought their own tomatoes from home. This was repeated in the following years. In 1950, the town allowed the tomato fight to take place. The festival gained all ages, and now people from different parts of the world, take part in this festival.
The most important thing to bring to Tomatina is a change of clothes and it’s best to wear old trainers. For the participants (参与者), the use of goggles (护目镜) is recommended (推荐). There is also no need to buy them in advance as they are available (可以得到的) for 2 euros in the shops all around Bunol. Expensive camera equipment is a big no-no! If you want to take photos, get a disposable (一次性的) water proof camera. It’s best to get there early and get down into the centre of the action as most of the tomatoes are dumped in the centre.
At midday exactly, excited crowds grab the tomatoes from the trucks and the world’s biggest tomato fight begins. Neighbours also take part in the battle by throwing buckets of water from their balconies to clean the tomato juice on people’s clothes. After exactly an hour, the fight ends. The whole town square is coloured red and rivers of tomato juice flow freely. Then, fire trucks hose down the streets to remove the tomato bits and juice.
After the cleaning, the village stone streets become clean and quiet again.

V.Reading comprehension (阅读理解)
A. Choose the best answer (根据以下内容，选择最恰当的答案)(10分)
In many countries, pets are well loved. In America, 95 percent of pet owners think of their animals as family members. About half buy them birthday gifts. And it’s a two-way street. People who have pets tend to have lower blood pressure. They also have a lower heart-disease risk.
Scientists are finding more and more evidence that animals can also help improve mental health. Some clinics have been using “pit therapy”（宠物疗法） alongside traditional medicine. Here is a look at some of the cures.
Rabbits
In one study, scientists told a group of stressed-out adults to pat a rabbit and a rabbit toy. The toy had no effect. Touching the living rabbit, however, reduced anxiety（焦虑）.
Crickets（蟋蟀）
Animals don’t have to be soft and lovely to help. In a 2016 study, elderly people who were given five crickets in a cage felt happier after eight weeks. The act of caring of an animal seemed to make the difference.
Horses
Horses are among the most-studied therapy animals. In Europe, they have been involved in medical treatment plans since the 1860s. Activities like brushing the fur of a horse have been shown to reduce anxiety in people of all ages.
Fish
One of the study focused on people who had Alzheimer’s disease（阿尔兹海默氏病）. When they dined in front of a tank of colorful fish, they ate more.
Dogs
Children who struggle with reading are less anxious when they read aloud to a trained dog. Their attitudes change and their skills improve.
