15．It is a good idea to take your dog to an obedience school，a place that trains dogs how to behave properly．Not only do dogs l earn a lot at these classes，but owners also learn proper human-to-dog communication．When it comes to dog obedience schools，though，there are many to choose from．The following are some things to consider as you are making this decision．
◆You may have a preference for taking one instruction，which is nice when you have a dog that is easily distracted； however，if your dog can focus its attention，you can choose a class with other dogs，which is great for the socialization of your dog．
◆Talk with the trainers about their training methods as there are several methods that are commonly used．Because you are the one that will be taking the dog home after training is over，you should make sure that the method your dog is trained in is one that you will feel comfortable using．
◆If you know other people that have taken their dogs to the obedience school，ask them for introduction or even for places that they were dissatisfied with．Even if you see strangers with dogs that seem well behaved，you may ask if they took a special obedience class．
◆Going online，you can look up what other people have had to say about dog obedience classes that you are considering，and even find out about the trainers．People often post opinions about their own experiences that you can make use of．
8．What do dog owners usually do in the obedience school？C

2．Scientists say California's special landscapes （地貌） are changing gradually as the world gets warmer．Now，with a new generation of computer models，they're trying to make clear what those changes will be：Less snow？More wildfires？Fewer animals？
The new computer models allow scientists to divide the state into much smaller regions than ever before---just thirty-six square miles．These regional models give scientists a way of draping （覆盖） climate over California's complex landscape．
Scientists want to understand how warming will affect the state's people，its economy，and the thousands of species that only live in California．The State's Climate Action Team has organized a meeting last month in Los Angeles on the economic effects of these targets．
California started the only state-run climate research program three years ago and is spending about $5 million a year on it．The goal of the research is to limit the impact of such changes．
California is part of an internationally recognized"hot spot"of biodiversity （生物多样性） that e xtends north across the Oregon border and south into Baja California．It's home to 4，426 species of plants，nearly half of which are found nowhere else．
What happens in California could have great influence．If California were a nation，it would be the fifth-biggest economy in the world and the 12th-biggest producer of greenhouse gases．

D．The author thought California was the most important state of America．
19．With over seven billion people （61）living（live） on our planet today，it is easy to think that one person's actions won't make a difference．However，from （62）personal（person） experience，I can say that everyone of us （63）is（be） able to make a difference---however small-to someone's life．
You've probably seen the campaign posters （64）produced（produce） by some charity organizations，encouraging you to donate 1or 2 （65）to save（save） children dying from malaria （疟疾） or starvation．In fact，many of us won't see the difference that they make．
There are many more ways that you can make a difference．When you next make yourself a drink，why not ask （66）whetheranyone else would like one？Or how about （67）offering （offer） your seat to someone else on the bus？Elderly people，（68）particularly（particular） those who live alone，appreciate it when people make an effort to say hello to them and ask how they are．
If you have time to spare，why not volunteer？Lots of places can benefit （69）froman extra pair of hands!You may not make a change so big （70）thatit will be recognized by people the world over，but it will be appreciated by someone，somewhere．
20．It was a winter morning，just before Christmas，While most people were warming up their cars，my husband，Trevor，had to ride his bike 4 kilometers away from home to work．On （61）arrival（arrive），he parked his bike outside the back door （62）asusual．After 10 hours of labor，he returned to find his bike gone，（63）whichwas our only transport．Trevor used it to get to work，and also the bike was also used（64）to get（get ）groceries，saving us from having to walk long distances from（65）wherewe live．
 I was so sad that I wrote to the newspaper and told （66）themour story．Shortly after that，several people in our area offered to help．One wonderful stranger even bought a bike，and then called my husband to fetch it．Once again my husband had a way to get to and （67）fromhis job．It really is（68）anhonor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before．
People say that a smile can （69）be passed（ pass） from one person to another，but acts of kindness from strangers are even more so．This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it（70）strengthened（strength） our faith in humanity．And it has influenced us to be more mindful of ways we，too，can share with others．
