10.Cold weather can be hard on pets,just like it can be hard on peopl e.Sometimes owners forget that their cats are just as used to the warm shelter as they are.Some owners will leave their animals outside for a long period of time,thinking that all animals are used to living outdoors.This can put their pets in danger of serious illness.There are things you can do to keep your animal warm and safe.
Keep your pets inside as much as you can when the weather is bad.If you have to take them out,stay outside with them.When you're cold enough to go inside,they probably are too.If you must leave them outside for a long time,make sure they have a warm,solid shelter against the wind,thick bedding,and plenty of non-frozen water.
If left alone outside,dogs and cats can be very smart in their search for warm shelter.They can dig into snow banks or hide somewhere.Watch them closely when they are left outdoors,and provide them with shelter of good quality.Keep an eye on your pet's water.Sometimes owners don't realize that a water bowl has frozen and their pet can't get anything to drink.Animals that don't have clean and unfrozen water may drink dirty water outside,which may contain something unhealthy for them.

20.In Mount Berry,Georgia,people find a group of schools built specially for mountain children.The schools,as well as the mountain itself,are named after Martha Berry herself,a daughter of a Georgian mountaineer.
Martha Berry was born in 1866.Luckier than most Georgian mountain children,she received an education.But she never forgot other children of the mountains whose parents couldn't afford to spend them to school.In 1902Martha Berry started a school for these children.It was housed in a single small log cabin(木屋) and was attended by only five pupils.Now,eighty years later,there are a score of Berry Schools in the area,with a total of over one thousand students and a waiting list of about five thousand.
Martha Berry in her later years received many medals and honors for what she had done for the poor mountain children of Georgia,and in 1931she was named one of the twelve most important women in the United States.She never stopped working for the mountain children till her death in 1942.
61.How old was Martha Berry when she died?(No more than 3words)Seventy six
62.For whom did Martha Berry start the school?(No more than 12words)Other children of mountains whose parents can't afford tuition
63.Why were the schools named after Martha Berry?(No more than 12words)Because people honored for what she had done for children of mountains
64.What does the underlined word"attended"mean?(No more than 3words)Joined in

7.My house is made out of wood,glass and stone.It is also made out of software.
If you come to visit,you'll probably be surprised when you come in.Someone will give you an electronic PIN (个人身份号码) to wear.This PIN tells the house who and where you are.The house uses this information to give you what you need.When it's dark outside,the PIN turns on the lights nearest to you,and then turns them off as you walk away from them.Music moves with you too.If the house knows your favorite music,it plays it.The music seems to be everywhere,but in fact other people in the house hear different music or no music.If you get a telephone call,only the nearest telephone rings.
Of course,you are also able to tell the house if you want something.There is a home control console(控制台),a small machine that turns things on and off around you.
The PIN and the console are new ideas,but they are in fact like many things we have today.If you want to go to a movie,you need a ticket.If I give you my car keys,you can use my car.The car works for you because you have the keys.My house works for you because you wear the PIN or hold the console.
I believe that ten years from now,most new homes will have the systems that I've put in my house.The systems will probably be even bigger and better than the ones I've put in today.
I like to try new ideas.I know that some of my ideas will work better than others.But I hope that one day I will stop thinking of these systems as new,and ask myself instead,"How will I live without them?"

The regular use of text messages and e-mails can lower the IQ more than twice as much as smoking marijuana (大麻).That is the statement of researchers who have found that (41)D away on a mobile phone or computer keypad or checking for electronic messages temporarily knocks up to 10points off the user's IQ.This rate of decline in intelligence compares (42)B with the four-point drop in IQ associated with smoking marijuana,according to British researchers,who have described the phenomenon of (43)C stupidity as"infomania(咨询强迫症)".The research conducted by Hewlett Packard,the technology company,has concluded that it is mainly a problem for adult workers,especially men.
It is concluded that too much use of modern technology can damage a person's mind.It can cause a (44)I distraction of"always on"technology when employees should be concentrating on what they are paid to do.Infomania means that they lose concentration as their minds remain fixed in an almost permanent state of (45)F to react to technology instead of focusing on the task in hand.The report also added that,in a long term,the brain will be (46)K shaped by what we do to it and by the experience of daily life.At a microcellular level,the (47)E networks of nerve cells that make up parts of the brain actually change in response to certain experiences.
Too much use of modern technology can be damaging not only to a person's mind,but to their social relationship.1100adults were interviewed during the research.More than 62per cent of them admitted that they were (48)A to checking their e-mails and text messages so often that they examined work-related ones carefully even when at home or on holiday.Half said that they always responded immediately to an email and will even interrupt a meeting to do so.It is concluded that infomania is increasing stress and (49)G and affecting one's characteristics.Nine out of ten thought that colleagues who answered e-mails or messages during a face-to-face meeting were extremely rude.
The effects on IQ were studied by Dr Glenn Wilson,a psychologist at University of London."This is a very real and widespread phenomenon,"he said."We have found that infomania will damage a worker's performance by reducing their mental (50)H and changing their social life.Companies should encourage a more balanced and appropriate way of working."
