If you’re not getting along with your neighbours, or your social life is inactive, consider getting a pet, preferably a dog. A new Australian study has found that pet owners tend to interact more positively with their neighbours and wider community, and be out and about more. And dog owners seem to be the friendliest and most social of all.

Lisa Wood, a lecturer at the University of Western Australia, with her colleagues conducted a random telephone survey of 339 adults from three suburbs in the Western Australian capital Perth, asking questions about pet ownership and social interaction.

They found that pet owners were more likely than people who didn't own a pet to acknowledge and exchange informal greetings with people from their neighbourhood, often while they were out with their pet, and to exchange favors with their neighbours.

Dog owners, in particular, seemed to enjoy good social contact. For example, more than half indicated that they had got to know people in their suburb as a result of their pet, and more than four-fifths talked to other pet owners when they walked their dogs.

But in general, pet owners, including goldfish owners, appeared to be more social than people who didn't own a pet, with fewer numbers reporting it hard to get to know people in their neighbourhood.

The research suggests owning a pet also motivates people to walk and use local parks, providing opportunities to meet new people; acts as a catalyst（催化剂） for taking part in community activities, and as a protector of mental health, which influences the ability to take part in community events and interact with local people.

1. According to the Australian study, __________________________.

A. getting a pet can make you busier

B. the pet owners are always ready to help others every day

C. your social life depends on whether you own a pet or not

D. the pet owners can benefit a lot from keeping the pet

A. some pet owners find it not easy to get along with others

B. pet owners are usually more friendly to others

C. pet owners are likely to communicate with others

D. keeping pets do a lot of good to the owners' health

4. The author uses the word “motivates” in the last paragraph to mean________________.

A.. reminds B. advises C. encourages D. requires

5. All the details in this passage support the main idea " ______________________".

A. keeping pets can gain the respect of the others

B. getting pets can improve your social life

C. people are persuaded to raise more pets

If your parents take out a loan, remind themselves to make the payments on time. Otherwise it will become a negative record in their personal credit reports, which are playing an increasingly big role in people's daily lives. A story carried by Chongqing Morning Post in June, underlines this trend.

According to the report, a Chongqing student borrowed money from the bank to finance his university studies. After he graduated in 2005, he went to work in Shenzhen. Later, he wanted to buy a house using loans. But several banks turned down his loan applications. The reason was that he had not paid back 1,500 yuan he borrowed from a bank when he was at university.

A personal credit rating is becoming an essential “pass” in everyday life, as China establishes a nationwide credit database. Personal credit systems go back 150 years. In developed countries, enterprises and banks use them to decide whether or not to loan money or do other business with a person.

A credit report estimates the credit worthiness of an individual, a company, or even a country. It is an evaluation made by credit bureaus of a borrower's overall credit history and his or her ability to repay debt. A poor credit rating means a high risk of defaulting on a loan, and thus leads to the refusal of a loan by the lender.

Today in China, credit history in banks is the major content of a credit report. But in the future, reports will include information about the payment of telephone bills, water use fees, electricity and natural gas bills, and taxes, according to officials of the People's Bank of China, the central bank.

Personal information such as appearance, genetic data, fingerprints, blood type, disease history, ethnic identity, family and religious beliefs are not to be included in credit reports, according to a draft regulation on credit rating issued last year by the Sate Council. The authors of the draft have just finished soliciting(征求) public opinions.

The Credit Reference Center run by the People's Bank of China is in charge of developing a nationwide credit database. Credit reports for all people with bank transactions (交易)began in 2006.

A personal credit rating is important to the social and economic activities of a person. According to the draft, if you have a personal negative credit record, it will be kept for five years.

60. The author took the story as an example in order to ________.

A. tell us the story of a Chongqing student

B. warn us of the importance of our personal credit report

C. encourage us to use credits widely

D. inform us to apply for a loan at university

61. Credit reports will include the following except ________.

A. taxes B. telephone bills

C. genetic data D. water use fees

62. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. Personal credit systems go back 150 years in China.

B. Credit reports began in 2006 in China.

C. Credit history in banks is the only content of a credit report.

D. You can turn to the People's Bank of China for the information about your credit report.

63. What's the best title for the passage?

A. Credit Really Counts

B. Credit in China

C. A Credit Report Rating

D. Credit Report Contents
