At my neighborhood’s dog park，everyone smiles and says hello.
Are dog owners nicer than other people？I can’t say that’s true，but sometimes it feels like it is. Maybe because of their animals，the people in the dog park find it easy to be friendly. When I take my pet dog Clancythere，I often have talks with other dog owners..
Not long ago，there was a meeting of recommendations(推荐) at the park. It started with an old man with a Labrador. “Does anyone know agood computer person？” he asked.
“I’ve got one，” said a lady sitting with her Chihuahua. “ But doesanyone know a good dentist？”
“Oh，I have one of those,” said a young mother with her Pomeranian, “ but I wonder if anyone knows a good place to repair(修理) watches.＂
“ The store up the road does that,” said a man walking past with a Teddy.
Whenever I have a question，instead of turning to the Internet，I think. “ There will be an answer at the park.”
However，the bad part is that people who are not dog owners cannot understand me.
“ That’s a beautiful painting,” said a friend the other day in my living room as he watched a picture by Remnim Alexander Tayco. “ How did you come across the artist ” “ While walking my dog,” I said. “ He has a dog and Clancy enjoys playing with it.” “What？” he said.
Or when someone asked where I found my accountant(会计师)，I replied，“ I met her at the dog park.” At this point，people would shrug their shoulders(耸肩)， as if to say， “What a strange(奇怪的) place to find an accountant！” But what would be a better place？

Cold weather has a great effect on how our minds and our bodies work. Maybe that is why there are so many expressions that use the word “cold”.
For example, people who show no human emotions or feelings are said to be cold-blooded. Cold can affect other parts of the body. But the expression “get cold feet” has nothing to do with cold or your feet. The expression means being afraid to do something you have decided to do. For example, you agree to be CEO of a company. But then you learn that all the other officers have resigned (辞职), and all the work of the company will be your responsibility (责任). You are likely to get cold feet about being CEO when you understand the situation.
The expression “give someone the cold shoulder” probably comes from the physical act of turning your back toward someone, instead of speaking to him face to face. You may give the cold shoulder to a friend who has not kept a promise he made to you, or to someone who has lied about you to others.
“A cold fish” is not a fish. It is a person. But it is a person who is unemotional and shows no love or warmth. A cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyone. Someone who is a cold fish could be cold-hearted. He or she will never feel sorry for those in bad situation.
“Out in the cold” means not getting something that everybody else got. A person might say that everybody but him got a pay raise — he was left out in the cold. And it is not a pleasant place to be.
27. If you get cold feet, this means that .
A. you feel brave to do something B. you feel too nervous to do something
C. you feel too cold to do something D. you feel very angry about doing something
28. Henry got the cold shoulder when he asked to see a film with Mary, that means .
A. Henry was treated politely when he asked Mary to see a film
B. Henry was afraid to invite Mary to see a film with him
C. Mary didn’t care about Henry’s invitation and didn’t plan to go with him
D. Mary behaved unfriendly because she didn’t like to talk with Henry face toface
29. What’s the passage mainly about
A. Opinions about cold weather. B. Expressions connected with “cold”.
C Relation between cold and body. D. Examples of people who have a cold.
30. Which of the following shows the structure (结构) of the passage (P = paragraph)
B. C. D.

Of all the books I have read, I like “Robinson Crusoe” by Daniel Defoe best. Robinson had to stand hunger, fight against bad condition, and overcome a lot of difficulties when he was left alone on an island. However, with his strong will and great determination（决心） he was successful. Just like Robinson, we may meet troubles and difficulties in our life. We can never give up easily. Only with hard work and strong will can we find a way out.
In my opinion, reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body. Good books can help to open our minds and build our character, which is quite important for our growth. However busy we are, we should spend some time reading.
