I call my story the story of a bad boy, partly to distinguish myself from those faultless young gentlemen, and partly because I really was not an angle. I may truthfully say I was a friendly, impulsive(易冲动的)teenager. I didn’t want to be an angel. In short, I was a real human boy, such as you may meet anywhere in New England.

Whenever a new scholar came to our school, I used to ask him “ My name’s Tom Bailey; what’s your name?” If the name struck me favorably, I shook hands with the new pupil cordially, but if it didn’t, I would turn and walk away, for I was particular on this point.

I was born in Rivermouth almost fifty years ago, but, before I became very well acquainted with that pretty New England town, my parents moved to New Orleans. I was only eighteen months old at the time of the move, and it didn’t make much difference to me where I was, because several years later, when my father proposed to take me North to be educated, I had my own view on the subject. I instantly kicked over the little boy, Sam, who happened to be standing by me at the moment, and declared that I would not be taken away to live among a lot of Yankees! You see I was what is called “ a Northern man with Southern principles,” I had no recollection of New England: my earliest memories were connected with the South. I knew I was born in the North, but hoped nobody would find it out. I never told my schoolmates I was a Yankee, because they talked about Yankees in a scornful way which made me feel that it was quite a shame not to be born in the South.

And this impression was strengthened by Aunt Chloe, who said, “There wasn’t no gentlemen in the North no way.”

With this picture of Northern civilization in my eye, the readers will easily understand my terror at the bare thought of being transported to Rivermouth to school, and possibly will forgive me for kicking over little Sam, when my father announced this to me. As for kicking little Sam, I always did that, more or less gently, when anything went wrong with me.

My father was greatly troubled by this violent behavior. As little Sam picked himself up, my father took my hand in his and led me thoughtfully to the library. He appeared strangely puzzled on learning the nature of my objections to going North.

“Who on earth, Tom, has filled your brain with those silly stories?” asked my father calmly.

“Aunt Chloe, sir, she told me.”

My father devoted that evening and several evenings to giving me a clear account of New England: its early struggles, its progress, and its present condition. I was no longer unwilling to go North; on the contrary, the proposed journey to a new world full of wonders kept me awake nights. Long before the moving day arrived I was eager to be off. My impatience was increased by the fact that my father had purchased for me a fine little Mustang pony, and shipped it to Rivermouth two weeks before the date set for our own journey. The pony completely resigned me to the situation. The pony’s name was Gitana, which is the Spanish for “gypsy”, so I always called her Gypsy.

Finally the time came to leave the vine-covered mansion among the orange-trees, to say goodbye to little Sam(I am convince he was heartily glad to get rid of me), and to part with Aunt Chloe. I imagine them standing by the open garden gate; the tears are rolling down Aunt Chloe’s cheeks; they and the old home fade away. I am never to see them again!

D. excited until he realized that he would have to part with Aunt Chloe and little Sam

lt's a dog's life for the nation's mutts - who are becoming anxious and aggressive through lack of play， experts fear．

A study of 4，000 dog owners has found a clear link between limited playtime and behaviour problems， such as being nervous when left alone， disobedience and snapping at other animals． And while researchers can't be sure that playing less is directly to blame， they say that games provide vital intellectual stimulation and exercise． The Bristol University study showed that only one in five owners play with their dogs six times a day． Half play two or three times a day and 10 per cent have just one play session．

Mark Evans， former chief vet for the RSPCA， said that dogs are one of the few animals to play into adulthood． He told the Sunday Times： 'There is a clear association in the results． Owners report more potential behaviour problems in dogs that play less．'

Emily Blackwell -- who conducted the research uncovered tonight on Channel 4's Dogs： Their Secret Lives - said dogs often enjoy playing so much that they slow down or change strategy to make the fun last longer． The lecturer in canine（犬科动物） welfare hopes that 10，000 people will eventually fill out the survey． This will enable her to firmly establish whether lack of play is affecting dogs' moods - or if their emotional problems put their owners off spending time with them． For instance，they may slow down when playing 'chase'， allowing their owner to catch up with them and the game to continue． Favourite games include wrestling， chase and tugging at toys， and perhaps unsurprisingly，'fetch' topped the list． Tennis balls were the favourite toys， followed by soft， squeaky toys， rubber balls and rope toys．

The research comes just days after an animal charity warned that millions of dogs are becoming fat． aggressive and destructive because their owners are clueless about basic animal care．The PDSA said that treats including beer， chips and leftover takeaways are making dogs fat and unwell – and wamed that almost a million are never taken for a walk．

1.If the dogs are not looked after carefully，．

A．they may become rebelling and damaging

B．they may get hurt and run away from home

C．they may become less active and dislike playing with the owners

D．they are more likely to fight with other animals

2.What is Emily Blackwell's opinion on dogs' behavior？

A．If the owners spend less time with their dogs， they may become aggressive．

B．Dogs know how to make their playing time last longer．

C．Only a few owners spend enough time playing with their dogs．

D．Some junk food or leftover may cause obesity on dogs．

3.The underlined word "this" in the fourth paragraph probably refers to ．

A．canine welfare

B．Channel 4's Dogs：Their Secret Lives

C．the survey

D．favourite games

4.What can we learn from the passage？

A．Researchers confirm that playing less is to blame for dogs' bad behaviours．

B．Most of the owners will play with their dogs many times in a day．

C．Chase and tennis balls are the favourites of dogs．

D．It's obvious that dogs' behaviour problems are related with their playing time．

Los Angeles Times reported that researchers may have found a way to ______ human life by changing certain genes, so that humans might expect to live twice as long.

C. multiply D. transform

I____to you from a small town about 50 miles away from your city

Scientists have produced new evidence suggesting eating lots of red and processed meat damages health．They found big meat eaters had a raised risk of death from all causes over a 10-year period．In contrast, a higher intake of white meat was associated with a slightly reduced risk of death over the same period．

The US study, based on more than 500,000 people, found those whose diet contained the highest proportion (比例) of red or processed meat had a higher overall risk of death, and specifically a higher risk of cancer and heart disease than those who ate the least．

People eating the most meat were eating about 160g of red or processed meat per day— approximately a 6oz steak．Those who ate the least were only getting about 25g per day— approximately a small piece of bacon．Just the opposite, those who ate the highest proportion of white meat had a lower risk of overall death, and a lower risk of fatal cancer or heart disease than those who ate the lowest proportion．

Meat is a major source of saturated (饱和的) fat, which has been associated with breast and colorectal cancer．In addition, lower meat intake has been linked to a reduction in risk factors for heart disease, including lower blood pressure and cholesterol (胆固醇) levels．The latest study adds to a growing body of research linking high red and processed meat consumption to an increased risk of ill health．Ed Yong, of the charity Cancer Research UK, said, “Evidence from large studies tells us that cutting down on processed food, such as bacon or burgers, can reduce the risk of dying from cancer and other diseases．”

Dr Barry Popkin of the University of North Carolina stressed there were health benefits from eating some red meat．But he added: “The need is for a major reduction in total meat intake, an even larger reduction in processed meat and other highly processed and salted animal source food products and a reduction in total saturated fat．” Dr Mark Wahlqvist, a nutrition expert from Australia, said eating small amounts of red meat—around 30g a day—provided a good source of key nutrients．He said, “Fresh, lean red meat of these amounts is likely to be of more benefit than harm．”

1.According to the passage, we know ______．

A． big meat eaters eat a 6oz steak per day

B． big meat eaters have heart disease ten years earlier

C． people eating more meat will suffer from a heart attack

D． people eating more red meat have a higher risk of death

C． vegetable with a similar taste of meat

3.According to the passage, how should we eat red meat in a healthy way?

A． We should eat red meat as we like．

B． We should eat proper amount of red meat per day．

C． We should reduce the amount of fresh, red lean meat．

D． We should completely cut out red meat from our diet．

4.What does the passage mainly talk about?

A． Too much red meat consumption contributes to ill health．

B． A well-balanced diet accounts for a healthy life．

C． A higher intake of white meat brings benefits．

D． Red meat contains saturated fat．
