When Dan Shaw gets up from the sofa in his home, Cuddles is never far away. When he wants to go outside, he doesn’t take Cuddles out for a walk—Cuddles takes him for a walk. Cuddles is clearly no ordinary family pet. It is a two-foot-high miniature horse and serves as the guiding eyes of Shaw, who is blind.

When Shaw lost his sight, his wife suggested he apply for a guide dog. Shaw, an animal lover, said he couldn’t bear to part with a dog (which usually lives about eight to ten years) and get used to a new one, perhaps several times in his life.

Then Shaw heard of a program about the tiny guide horses. He learned that the horse possess many qualities that that make them an excellent choice for guiding people. They are clean, friendly, smart and have great memories. They can be trained to remain calm in noisy and crowded places. Best of all, they live for 25-25years, which would enable Shaw to have the same guide companion for most or all of his life.

Shaw immediately applied to be and was accepted as the first person to receive a guide horse. The instant he met Cuddles, he knew he was making the right choice. Then he began his training.

Through training, Shaw and Cuddles learned to find way on busy streets, step over curbs（便道沿儿）and find elevator buttons. Cuddles even demonstrated（显示）its ability to step in front of Shaw and block him, to prevent him from walking into a dangerous situation. The little horse also expertly led Shaw through busy shopping malls. They got along without any difficulty. Now Shaw is confident that Cuddles will change his life for the better.

1.What’s the meaning of the underlined word “miniature” in Paragraph 1? (No more than 2 words)

2.Why didn’t Shaw want to choose a dog as his guide? (No more than 15 words)

3.What does Paragraph 3 mainly tell us? (No more than 10 words)

4.How does Shaw feel about his future life with the help of Cuddles? (No more than 10 words)

5.In your opinion, what is the ideal relationship between man and animals? (No more than 20 words)

Today, air travel is far safer than driving a car on a busy motor-way. But still there is a danger that grows every year. Airliners get larger and larger. Some airplanes can carry over 300 passengers. And the air itself becomes more and more crowded. If one large airliner struck into another in midair, 600 lives could be lost.

From the moment an airliner takes off to the moment it lands, every movement is watched on radar screens. Air traffic controllers tell the pilot exactly when to turn, when to climb, and when to come down. The air traffic controllers around a busy airport like London-Heathrow may deal with 2,500 planes a day. Not all of them actually land at the airport. Any plane that flies near the airport comes under the orders of the controllers there. Even a small mistake on their part could cause a terrible accident.

Recently such a disaster almost happened. Two large jets were flying towards the airport. One was carrying 69 passengers from Toronto, the other 176 passengers from Chicago. An air traffic controller noticed on his radar screen that the two planes were too close to each other. He ordered one to turn to the right and to climb．But he made a mistake. He ordered the wrong plane to do this. So, instead of turning away from the second plane, the first plane turned towards it. Fifteen seconds later it flew directly in front of the second plane. They avoided (避免) each other by the smallest part of a second. The distance between them was less than that of a large swimming pool. This is an example of the danger that grows every year.

62. The air traffic controllers of an airport ____．

A. control all the planes flying near the airport

B. give orders to planes leaving the airport

C. only deal with the planes that want to land there

D. are allowed to handle 250 planes a day

63. The danger of air crashes grows every year because ____．

A. airliners are getting larger and air traffic is becoming heavier

B. a pilot does not always hear a controller’s order

C. a controller is likely to make more and more mistakes

D. airports can hardly serve the growing number of airplanes

64. The example in the passage is to show that ____．

A. air traffic controllers are often careless

B. air traffic controllers should pay much attention to avoiding accidents

C. it is difficult for airplanes to avoid terrible accidents

D. two planes should not fly too close to each other

Bored by the Chinese courses he was majoring in, Zuo Cheng, 18, couldn't imagine having to drag himself into class day after day, week after week, for four years. The Beijing Language and Culture University student decided that enough was enough. After rounds of examinations and interviews, he managed to transfer (转移) to the Department of International Accounting.

"It may seem like I've wasted a year and have to start college all over again, but now that I've settled on a field, I'll be able to concentrate." Zuo said. Zuo is not alone.

At the China Three Gorges University in Yichang in Hubei province 53 out of 59 students in the Physics Department took transfer exams last term. Unfortunately only 22 of them got a place on another major.

Jiang Xin, 20, who was able to switch to electrical engineering and automation from physics, said that physics graduates had few other choices besides going into teaching. He added that a career in education just didn't suit him.

"I should have better job prospects (前景) and the chance to earn more money once I graduate," Jiang said. Many first year college students find their majors uninteresting.

However, Shao Yanfang, who works at the admissions office of a university, advised students to consider both short-term and long-term goals. "After graduation do you want to find yourself in a job very specifically related to your college major? Or, would you like to possess the knowledge and skills that will enable you to work in many areas? These are the questions students need to consider. Above all, your choice of major should be based on your own interests, abilities and personality," Shao said.

1. After Zuo Cheng managed to transfer the collage major, he felt________.

2. Which of the following statements is true?

A. A lot of students are not accustomed to the life on campus.

B. Students who attend university want to earn more money.

C. Students can change their major based on their interests.

D. Students who are weak in their study can change their major.

3. In the passage, Paragraph 3 functions as ________.

A. an example B. an introduction C. a conclusion D. an explanation

4. According to Shao Yanfang, students are supposed to think about ________ when changing majors.

A. present knowledge and skills B. short-term and long-term goals

C. future earnings and jobs D. relationship between friends

5. The text is written mainly for those ________.

A. Company managers B. Job hunters

C. Collage directors D. College students

American pilots use enemy tactics（战术）, fly F-5E Tigers painted to look like Migs, and line other American planes up in the cross airs of their weapons．

Operation Red Flag is a training program operated by the US Air Force at Nell in Air Force Base in Nevada, where pilots from all over the United States come to complete their training or to take “refresher course”, as, each day, imitated （模仿） battles are performed high over the Nevada desert．Trainees in American planes try hard to fight off the planes from the Operation Red squadron（中队）．

Only the best pilots fly the Red Flag planes．The F-5E was chosen because it looks and performs like a Russian fighter, the Mig．The pilots in these planes have gone through extensive training to enable them to imitate Russian pilots．They read the Russian newspapers; their briefing room has Russian pictures on the walls; the pilots learn how Russian pilots grow up, how they are trained, how they think and in their planes, flying over wooden models of Russian tanks and trucks, they fly like Russian pilots．After each day's battle is over, they lecture the new pilots about the day's failures or success and about Russian tactics．

Until Operation Red Flag began, American pilots finished their training by performing battles against other American pilots．But enemy pilots use different tactics, relying on radar rather than sight to spot the enemy．Now the training of American pilots is much more realistic．Computers and gun cameras record the battles for later analysis．Now a pilot can fly against an “enemy” and have a chance to learn his mistakes—before the mistakes have become very serious．

1．We can conclude from the passage that_________．

A．several pilots in Operation Red Flag have been killed because they made mistakes

B．most of the time arranged for Operation Red-Flag is spent in lecture

C．Russian provides a similar program for Russian pilots in American tactics

D．Operation Red Flag tries to make the program as realistic as possible

2．The passage suggests that__________．

A．funds for Operation Red Flag have been cut back since the end of the cold war

B．the Air Force accept only former Russian pilots for Operation Red Flag

C．classroom training and basic flying lessons are not enough to prepare a pilot for battle

D．Russian pilots are better fighters than American pilots

3．The main idea of the passage is that __________．

A．learning to fly Russian Migs was necessary for American pilots

B．American pilots were trained in imitated battles

C．the Russian Air Force trains its pilots well

D．Russian pilots fly differently from American pilots
