　　第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
　　阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
　　A
　　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 dartside, 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?"
　　21. What does the passage mainly discuss?
　　A. How to develop a new system. B. The function of the PIN.
　　C. A home for the future. D. Easy life in the future.
　　22. What can’t be done in the writer’s new house according to the passage?
　　A. Turning on the lights. B. Going swimming.
　　C. Getting a telephone call. D. Playing music.
　　23. The writer's new house is different from ordinary ones mainly because _______.
　　A. it has your favorite music following you
　　B. you can make a telephone call anywhere
　　C. the writer is able to change his new idea into practice
　　D. it has been controlled by computers
　　24. What is the writer most likely to be according to the passage?
　　A. An IT expert               B. A famous doctor
　　C. An idealist                  D. An experienced teacher
　　B

　　So you thin r dog. But how well does your dog ? She probably recognizes you when she sees you. But can a dog tell by simply looking at you whether you have a happy or an angry expression on your face? Researchers in Austria have taught pet dogs to know the difference.
　　Dogs are very mindful of sound. When dog owners shout or speak in a strong, unkind voice, dogs often act ashamed and quietly move away from the area.
　　Recently, researchers found that dogs can loor faces, and tell the difference between a smile and a frown(皱眉). The animals were able to recognize a look of praise from one of blame.
　　Researchers at the University of Veterinary Medicine, Vienna performed a series of experiments. They taught dogs to recognize facial expressions. They showed the dogs two pictures of either the upper or lower half of a person's face. On one picture, the person looked happy. The other appeared angry.
　　The dogs were then shown images of the eyes or mouths of people they had never seen before. They were also shown the left half of the faces used in training.
　　Corsin Muller led the study. “We were really speaking, do they realize that smiling eyes have the same meaning as a smiling mouth, or angry eyes have the same meaning as an angry mouth? And it turned out that they really did perform very well in these research experiments.”
　　Once the dogs learned to recognize which image was happy or angry, they could easily find the same expressions in pictures of any face.
　　Corsin Muller says future studies will try to show whether dogs can learn the meaning of facial expressions―for example, whether a frown shows that someone is angry.
　　In the experiments, researchers found the dogs were slower to link a reward, or prize, with recognition of the angry face. This suggested that dogs had an idea people with angry faces were best avoided.
　　29. What does the passage mainly tell us?
　　A. How one can know his dog well.
　　B. How a dog can probably be well trained.
　　C. How a dog can tell one something.
　　D. whether dogs can recognize our facial expressions
　　30. Hearing its owner’s strong, unkind voice, a dog is likely to_________.
　　A. jump happily B. act excitedly C. escape quietly D. shout loudly
　　31. A dog is able to recognize one’s __________.
　　A. praise B. blame C. anger D. all of the above
　　32. What can we learn from the passage?
　　A. Dogs are as clever as human beings.
　　B. Dogs can understand man’s feelings.
　　C. Dogs can be trained to do everything.
　　D. Dogs can learn to make any angry face.
　　D
　　A young boy recently received an unexpected message in the mail from his father Joseph, who died two years ago.
　　Rowan's dad was a hardworking man who wanted to give his son the best life he could. It was why Rowan's mother, Julie Van Stone, said Joseph joined the Navy and went to MIT to get two masters degrees.
　　While at school in Boston, he would often write to Rowan. Even when he left school and was driving back to Colorado, he would send postcards from each state he stopped in. Those postcards were sent in 2007. "I remember him saying he had sent 5 or 6, and I only got 3 or 4 in the mail. But I never thought anything of it," Van Stone said.
　　Those postcards and pictures are priceless memories for Van Stone and her son, especially after Joseph passed away from a rare brain disease. Rowan never had a chance to say goodbye. But, on Saturday, just days before the two-year anniversary of Joseph's death, a postcard arrived in the mail. It arrived March 11, 2015. The message read: "Hello from Pennsylvania. I love you, and I miss you so much. See you soon. Love, Daddy."
　　Neither he nor his mother knows how it happened, and they may never t, they have their own ideas why. "I feel like that was the final goodbye that he didn't get to say," Van Stone said. Van Stone says Joseph's last words to her before he died were: "Everything is a circle. We will see each other again. All that matters is love."
　　33. What did Rowan’s dad do to give his son the best life?
　　A. He bought many for Julie. B. He became a soldier in Navy.
　　C. He kept writing to his son. D. He got many masters degrees.
　　34. How long did it take for the postcard to reach Rowan?
　　A. 2 years. B. 5 years. C. 6 years. D. 8 years.
　　35. Where did Rowan’s dad send the postcard?
　　A. In Boston. B. In Colorado C. In Pennsylvania D. In New York
