10.Now scientists have discovered the first evidence that the animals actually behave like their masters.Just like children,they adopt a"look and learn"approach which means they can mimic (模仿) human's actions when going about their tasks.
    Biologists and psychologists at the universities of Vienna and Oxford designed an experiment to test the theory that dogs do have the ability to copy what they see,using a simple wooden box.In the study,ten owners showed their dogs how to open the wooden box,sometimes using their heads to push a handle and sometimes using their hands.
    In the first part of the test,five dogs were rewarded with a piece of sausage for copying their owners'actions.The other five were rewarded with food for not copying,and using other methods.With each dog the experiment was repeated hundreds of times,and the time taken for a dog to get it"right"on 85 percent of attempts (17 goes out of 20)was recorded.The dogs encouraged to mirror their owners reached this point almost three times sooner on average than those rewarded for not copying them.In the second part of the test,all the dogs were only rewarded for copying the method their owners used.The five dogs previously rewarded for copying their owners reached the 85 percent mark more than twice as the other five.
    In a paper published in Proceeding of the Royal Society,they concluded,"Like humans,dogs can't help imitating actions they see."Going further,they said,"The results suggest the imitative (模仿的) behavior of dogs is shaped more by their developmental interactions with humans than by their evolutionary (进化的) history of domestication (驯化)."
    Caroline Kisko,from the Kennel club,said,"A dog's behavior is influenced much like that of a child learning right from wrong and adopting similar patterns of behavior.We hope that owners understand the importance of their actions and use this knowledge to set good examples and therefore positively influence the behavior of their pets."
38.What's the best title of the passage?C
A.Dogs Are Intelligent Animals         
B.Dogs Are like Children Most
C.Dogs Behave like Their Masters         
D.Dogs Can Complete Simple Tasks
39.The underlined part"they"in Paragraph 4 most probably refers toD.
A.the dogs'masters                    
B.the magazine's publishers
C.all the people involved in the experiment
D.the biologists and psychologists
40.The researchers believe dogs'imitative behavior comes mainly fromD.
A.domestication            
B.human rewards     
C.evolution             
D.human-dog interactions
41.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?B
A.Masters should influence their dogs as early as possible.
B.A man's bad behavior may influence his dog.
C.Dogs can't be influenced by men easily.
D.Dogs always behave positively.
8.Five Things to Do in a Traffic Jam
Tired of traffic jams?Here are some tips that can help you to calm down in a traffic jam.
Listen to CD audio book
It's a good idea to keep several audio books in your car.(36)GListening to an exciting story is more interesting than sitting silently and being bored.
Sing loudly
If you begin getting angry because of a long traffic jam,turn your CD player on or radio up.(37)EImagine you're a wonderful singer and the audience is listening to you in admiration.Your stress will disappear.
(38)A
You can use the radio and play entertaining games while waiting.For example,you can guess the song or the singer or to see how quickly you can recognize a new song.
Have a snack
Keeping a tasty snack in the car is especially good for waiting in traffic jams.Choo-se what you like most of all,so you will look forward to traffic jams to have a chance to eat the delicious snack.(39)CIn that case,time is the last thing to worry about.
Argue with the radio talk show host
Find a station with a radio talk show.(40)DIf you disagree,you can show your anger.
Don't be afraid to call their ideas stupid.Only make sure that the car windows are clo-sed so no one may hear you.
Sitting in a traffic jam can be very stressful but next time you can use these simple tips,and you won't notice how long you have been waiting and soon you will be on your way.

15.In England recently three foreign gentlemen came to a bus stop and waited.About five minutes later,the bus they wanted came along.They were just going to get on when suddenly there was a loud noise behind them.People rushed onto the bus and tried to push them out of the way.Someone shouted at them.The bus conductor came rushing down the stairs to see what all the trouble was about.The three foreigners seem all at sea and looked embarrassed.No one had told them about the British custom of lining up for a bus that the first person who arrives at the bus stop is the first person to get on the bus.Learning the language of a country isn't enough.
If you want to have a pleasant visit,find out as much as possible about the manners and
customs of your host country.You will probably be surprised just how different they can be
from your own.
A visitor to India would do well to remember that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand for passing food at table.The left hand is supposed to be used for washing yourself.AlsoinIndia,you might see a man shaking his head at another to show that he doesn't agree.But in many parts of India a shake of the head means agreement.Nodding your headwhen you are given a drink in Bulgaria will most probably leave you thirsty.
In that country,you shake your head to mean'yes'-a nod means'no'.At a meal in countries on the Arabic Peninsula,you will find that your glass is repeated refilled as soon as you drink up.If you thinkthat you have had enough,you should take the cup or glasses in your hand and give it a little shake from side to side or place your hand over the top.
In Europe itisquite usual to cross your legs when you are sitting talking to someone even at an important meeting.Doing this in Thailand,however,could bring about trouble.Also,you should try to avoid touching the head of an adult---it's just not done in Thailand.
11.The British people tried to push the three gentlemen out of the way,because the gentlemenD.
A.were foreigners               
B.didn't have tickets
C.made a loud noise            
D.didn't line up for the bus
12.In India it is considered impoliteB.
A.to use the right hand for passing food at table.
B.to pass food with the left hand.
C.to eat food with your hands.
D.to help yourself at table.
13.To cross one's legs at an important meeting in Europe isA.
A.a common  habit     
B.an important manner

11.Scientists found that sleeping considerably improves our creativity.After taking a nap people are able to think faster and put more imagination into their thinking.Besides,if we dream,the thinking abilities are improved even more.
Researchers consider that sleeping on a problem in most cases leads to elucidation(解释).They say when a person enters a phase called Rapid Eye Movement (REM) during sleep,it increases the effect.Such phase takes place right before we awake and according to scientists it helps our brain make links between unrelated subjects.
In the study,led by Professor Sara Mednick,scientists made a conclusion that the REM was"important for assimilating(消化)new information into past experience"in order to find solutions to creative problems.
Prof.Mednick is a psychiatrist at the University of California.Her study involved the analysis of 77adults.Each participant was given several word-associated creative tasks.All tasks were given in the morning,with participants being shown a number of groups of 3words,for example:cookie,heart and sixteen.They were asked to come up with a word that would be associated with all three given terms-like sweet.Sometime later,after some
participants were allowed to sleep,they were asked to perform the same tasks and some new ones.It is worth mentioning that while some people slept,researchers used brain scans to see the type of sleep each participant entered.
When given the same tasks,participants,who took a nap,were able to give more varied solutions,some of which were much better than they gave earlier.But when given new tasks,researchers found that those who entered REM sleep had a 40percent better result compared to the performance they showed in the morning.

12.What does"it"refer to in the second paragraph?B
A.The effect.
B.REM.
C.Sleep.
D.A problem.
13.Why do the researchers study the REM?C
A.Because REM takes place just after you sleep.
B.Because REM can store more information.
C.Because REM can help find creative solutions.
D.Because REM can make a creative invention.
14.What can we know from this passage?A
A.Taking a short nap is good for your thinking during the day.
B.Sleeping has three processes which is good for creativity.
C.Each adult was allowed to sleep after the task was given.
D.REM is a process taking place right after we awake when we nap.
15.The important stage in the study isD.
A.to think of a creative word
B.to show a group of 3words
C.to give participants time to think
D.to let some participants sleep for a while.
