分析 本文是广告类的文章.介绍了大学部分服务项目的情况.一是介绍了自助餐厅、咖啡馆,它们营业的项目及时间、地点等.二是可以让学生放松娱乐的地方,可以在这里自己做饭,组织一些活动等.三是关于健康保健卫生,学生可以去咨询有关健康保健的问题.四是学术支持中心.学生有什么写作、语法、词汇或其他学术问题可以填表登记预约.五是学校有班车来回接送学生往来于学校和商场之间,很是方便.

解答 24.C.考查细节理解.在TWU的自助餐厅你可以做什么?根据food部分第一段第二句可知可以在这里吃饭;根据you can use the tables to eat your lunch to have meetings and to study.可以遇见朋友,故选C.这里如果考生不细心的话,有可能选干扰最强的选项D,选项D的内容都是food部分的内容,选项D提到的充钱是在TWU的自助餐厅,而下棋是在the Lower Café,这很容易让考生误选D.故选C.

2.Science can't explain the power of pets,but many studies have shown that the company of pets can help lower blood pressure (血压) and raise chances of recovering from a heart attack,reduce loneliness and spread all-round good cheer.
Any owner will tell you how much joy a pet brings.For some,an animal provides more comfort than a husband/wife.A 2002study by Karen Allen of the State University of New York measured stress (紧张) levels and blood pressure in people-half of them pet owners-while they performed 5minutes of mental arithmetic (算术) or held a hand in ice water.Subjects completed the tasks alone,with a husband/wife,a close friend or with a pet.People with pets did it best.Those tested with their animal friends had smaller change in blood pressure and returned most quickly to baseline heart rates.With pets in the room,people also made fewer math mistakes than when doing in front of other companions.It seems people feel more relaxed (放松)around pets,says Allen,who thinks it may be because pets don't judge.
A study reported last fall suggests that having a pet dog not only raises your spirits but may also have an effect on your eating habits.Researchers at Northwestern Memorial Hospital spent a year studying 36fat people and their equally fat dogs on diet-and-exercise programs; a separate group of 56people without pets were put on a diet program.On average,people lost about 11pounds,or 5% of their body weight.Their dogs did even better,losing an average of 12pounds,more than 15% of their body weight.Dog owners didn't lose any more weight than those without dogs but,say researchers,got more exercise overall-mostly with their dogs-and found it worth doing.
28.What does the text mainly discuss?A
A.What pets bring to their owners.
B.How pets help people calm down.
C.People's opinions of keeping pets.

A.he has a pet companion
B.he has less stress of work
C.he often does mental arithmetic
D.he is taken care of by his family
30.According to Allen,why did the people do better with pets around when completing stressful tasks?C
A.They have lower blood pressure.
B.They become more patient.
C.They are less nervous.
D.They are in higher spirits.

D.people without dogs found the program unhelpful.

4.A woman renewing her driver's license at the County Clerk's office was asked to state her occupation.She hesitated,uncertain how to classify herself.
"What I mean is,"explained the recorder,"do you have a job,or are you just a …"
"Of course I have a job,"said Emily."I'm a mother."
"We don't list‘mother'as an occupation…‘housewife'covers it,"said the recorder.
    One day I found myself in the same situation.The clerk was obviously a career woman,confident and possessed of a high sounding title."What is your occupation?"she asked.
    The words simply popped out."I'm a Research Associate in the field of Child Development and Human Relations."
    The clerk paused,ballpoint pen frozen in midair.
    I repeated the title slowly,and then I stared with wonder as my statement was written in bold,black ink on the official questionnaire.
"Might I ask,"said the clerk with new interest,"Just what you do in this field?"
    Without any trace of panic in my voice,I heard myself reply,"I have a continuing program of research (what mother doesn't),in the lab and in the field (normally I would have said indoors and out).Of course,the job is one of the most demanding in the humanities (any mother care to disagree?),and I often work 14 hours a day (24 is more like it).But the job is more challenging than most careers and rewards are more of a satisfaction rather than just money."
    There was an increasing note of respect in the clerk's voice as she completed the form,stood up,and showed me out.
    As I drove into our driveway,buoyed up (依托) by my glamorous new career,I was greeted by my lab assistants---ages 13,7,and 3.
    Upstairs I could hear our new experimental model (a 6 month old baby),in the child-development program,testing out a new vocal pattern.
    I felt proud!I had gone on the official records as someone more distinguished and indispensable (不可缺少的) to mankind than"just another mother."
    Motherhood…What a glorious career!Especially when there's a title on the door.

A.Because the author cared little about rewards.
B.Because she admired the author's research work in the lab.
