4．阅读理解
Everybody hates rats. But rats may soon be man's new good friends. What happens after an earthquake? We send in rescue dogs. Why? Because they can smell people. Dogs save lives. They help rescuers to find living people. But dogs are big and they can't get into small spaces. So now a new research project is using a smaller animal to save lives: the rat.
How does it work? First, the rat is trained to smell people. When this happens, the rat's brain gives a signal. This is sent to a small radio on its back, and then the rescuers follow the radio
signals. When the rat's brain activity jumps, the rescuers know that someone is alive. The rat has smelled that person.
Although there are already robots which can do this job, rats are better. Robots' noses don't work well when there are other smells around. Rats are good at that. Rats can also see in the dark, they are cheaper and quicker to train than dogs, and unlike robots, they don't need electricity!
The \"rat project\" is not finished. But a scientist says, \"It would be great. A rat could get into any place we couldn't get to, and a rat would get out if it wasn't safe.\" Perhaps for the first time in history, people will be happy to see a rat in a building （but only after an earthquake, of course）.
（1）Where do you think you can find this passage? A. In a magazine about toys. B. In a history book. C. In a newspaper about science. D. In an advertisement. （2）Which of the following is NOT TRUE?
A. Rats don't need electricity. B. Rats are better than robots when smelling. C. Rats are as clever as radios. D. Rats can see things in the dark when doing rescues. （3）Why does the \"rat project\" sound great according to the passage?
A. Because rats can get into very small spaces. B. Because rats have better noses than dogs. C. Because rats don't like robots. D. Because rats are brave. （4）Which is the best title of this passage?
A. Ways of saving people B. Rats C. Earthquakes D. Rats for rescue 【答案】 （1）C （2）C （3）A （4）D
【解析】【分析】主要讲了老鼠是怎样营救人的。
（1）推断题。根据全文可知主要讲了老鼠救人，所以可以在关于科学的报纸上发现，故选C。
（2）细节题。根据This is sent to a small radio on its back, and then the rescuers follow the radio signals.可知信号被发送给收音机，而没有说老鼠和收音机一样聪明，故选C。 （3）细节题。根据\"It would be great. A rat could get into any place we couldn't get to, and a rat would get out if it wasn't safe.\"可知是因为老鼠可以去非常小的地方，故选A。 （4）主旨题。根据全文可知主要讲了老鼠是怎样营救人的。故选D。

The word, \"photography\write with light\". But photography could only give people static pictures. So scientists were trying hard to find ways to make pictures that can move. They made lots of experiments, but failed again and again. It was Eadweard Muybridge who finally succeeded. He was the first photographer to try this successfully. But how did he make it? It was an interesting story. Back in 1872, people didn't know exactly（确切地） whether all four of a horse's hooves（蹄） left the ground at the same time when it was running. A gentleman called Leland Stanford made a bet with his friend about it. Most people believed that a horse always had one hoof on the ground, or it would fall over. But Stanford didn't think so.
At that time, it was hard to know who could win the bet, because a horse's legs move so fast that it is impossible to tell just by looking. So they needed a way to record the movement of a running horse. Then Stanford offered $ 25,000 to the famous photographer, Muybridge, to help find the answer. In the beginning, Muybridge failed to get clear images, but he didn't give up. He continued to improve his cameras. In 1878, after many experiments, he managed to get a
sequence（连续） of 12 photos. One of them clearly showed that all four of the horse's hooves were off the ground at the same time. And when the photos moved fast, people could see a horse running.
Though Edison is usually considered as the person who created the first movie in 1889, it was the work of Eadweard Muybridge and the bet that led to Edison's invention. （1）The underlined word \"static\" in Paragraph 1 most probably means . A. pretty B. dark C. moving D. still （2）What did Leland Stanford make a bet with his friend about? A. Whose horse ran faster.
B. Whether a horse would fall over while running.
C. Whether it was possible for scientists to make moving pictures.
D. Whether a horse's hooves all left the ground at the same time while running. （3）Muybridge finally found the exact answer to the bet in .
A. 1839 B. 1872 C. 1878 D. 1889 （4）The passage mainly tells us . A. that Thomas Edison created the first movie
B. that Eadweard Muybridge created the first static pictures C. how photography helped people know more about animals
D. how Eadweard Muybridge got pictures of motion（移动） successfully 【答案】 （1）D （2）D （3）C （4）D
【解析】【分析】大意：文章主要介绍了 Eadweard Muybridge拍到移动的照片的故事。 （1）词义猜测题。根据下文 So scientists were trying hard to find ways to make pictures that can move. 所以科学家很努力地尝试找到让照片动起来的方法，可知以前的照片是静止的，static意为still“静止的”。故选D。
（2）细节理解题。根据第二段 Back in 1872, people didn't know exactly（确切地） whether all four of a horse's hooves（蹄） left the ground at the same time when it was running. 可知， Leland Stanford和朋友打赌马在奔跑的时候是不是四只马蹄都离地。故选D。
（3）细节理解题。根据第三段 In 1878, after many experiments, he managed to get a sequence（连续） of 12 photos. 可知，直到1878年， Muybridge ，才设法拍到连续的12张照片。故选C。
（4）主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了 Eadweard Muybridge拍到移动的照片的故事。故选D。

In your school, are you allowed to choose the subjects you want to learn? Of course, the answer is \"No\" here in China.
In America there is a school trying something new. At a high school in Florida, students will be able to choose their own classes. We all know that some students are better at some subjects than others. Some students plan to go on to college, while others do not. At this school students are able to find subjects they are interested in, and possibly even find the field（领域）they would like to go into after finishing school. They are allowed to choose a subject like biology, math, a foreign language, or study skills like car repair（修理）.
Some people think this is a good idea, because it helps students think about what they want to do in the future, and the school helps to give them the knowledge and skills needed to get there. They say that giving the students the chance to choose their own classes makes high school more interesting. Others disagree. They think it will make it difficult for students to discover different possibilities（潜力）.They point out that fourteen-year-old teenagers are too young to know what they want to do in the future.
What do you think? Would you like to be able to choose your own classes? Many useful changes have been made in education, but seeing the differences in each student is also important. How can we help each student become a better student?

I looked at my son and we both said nothing, but John's eyes shone. Dark, woolen coats were popular with teenage boys, but new ones could cost several hundred dollars. This coat was even better. John tried it on and turned from side to side, eyeing himself in the mirror. It fit him so well. John wore the coal to school the next clay. After he came home, I asked. \"Did the kids like your coat?\"
\"They loved it,\" he said with a big grin.

Without a word of complaining, he would carry in wood for the stove. One day when I suggested that he might start on his homework before dinner, John, who always put things off, said, \"You're right. I guess I will.\" When I mentioned this change to one of his teachers, she joked that the coat must have changed him.

Lots of people are afraid of speaking in public. According to a study, there are 3 of every 4 people having such a problem. The conclusion is a bit surprising and worrying, as most jobs require some speaking ability. The following will help you to make a speech better.
Write note cards. Write main ideas on your cards. You needn't write details. Just put in some fun facts, questions, and other activities on the cards to share with the class. You needn't look at your cards for a long time while speaking. Only have a quick look at the card for information instead of reading every last word if necessary.
Smile at your class. When it's time to speak, a good old-fashioned smile is the best to draw your class into your speech. Be happy, because you're about to teach your class something they don't know before. Studies have shown that smiles are infectious. That means once you smile, it's hard for everyone else not to smile. So if you want your speech to go off well, smile. That will make everyone smile and maybe those smiles will make you actually smile.
Make eyes contact. It's so boring to listen to a speaker who looks at the floor or at note cards. Relax. Your class is made up of your friends and you talk to them all the time.
