Guide dogs enjoy their work very much, and they get a lot of satisfaction from a job well
done, but there is no room for typical dog fun during the work day. Games, treats and praise
distract
the
dog
from
helping
its
handler
navigate
(
指引方向
)
the
course.
Even
when
the
handler doesn
’
t need assistance, a guide dog on the job is trained to ignore distractions and
keep still. This is because a guide dog must be able to come to handler
’
s workplace or be in
public places without creating a disturbance(
干扰
).
When you see a guide dog on the job, it is extremely important that you recognize that it is at
work.
Petting
or
talking
to
the
dog
spreads
its
concentration,
which
weakens
the
handler
’
s
ability to get around in his or her surroundings. People are very impressed with guide dogs and
so we have a natural inclination
（倾向）
to praise them, but the best thing you can do to help a
guide dog is to leave it alone so that it can pay attention to its surroundings and maintain its
focus on its handler. Guiding is very complicated, and it requires a dog
’
s undivided attention.
When a guide dog gets home at the end of the day, however, it will play and soak up praise
just like an ordinary pet. Guide dogs make the difference between work and play based on their
lead
harness
（牵狗用的皮带）
：
When
the
harness
is
on,
they
must
stay
completely
focused---- when it comes off, it
’
s play time. Guide dogs work very hard every day, but they
lead extremely happy lives, full of lots of attention and stimulation.
Working as a guide dog requires good physical and mental shape, so guide dogs typically
retire just before they enter old age. Retirement is usually at age 8 or 10; but some work for a
little longer, and some guide dogs retire earlier if they
’
re having trouble with the work.
21.
What do you think is the typical job of a guide dog?
A.
Help the policemen to search for the murderer.
B.
Help the blind or weak-sighted people get around .
C.
Help the doctor to save the injured people.
D.
Help the owner to watch their house.
22.
What does the writer want to tell the readers through the passage?
A.
Guide dogs are so helpful that we should make friends with them.
B.
Guide dogs are different from other dogs and they have some special talents.
C.
Guide dogs
’
life style and job situation.
D.
Guide dogs
’
trained way by their handlers.
23.
What does the underlined word
“
distract
”
mean in the passage?
A.
to stop the dog paying attention to what he is doing
B.
to make the dog think very carefully about what he is doing
C.
to interrupt the dog so that he cannot do the work well
D.
to stop the dog from doing something

When we hear of dangerous diseases, cancer and heart disease are often what first come
to
mind. Recently,
a
virus
called
Ebola
has
reappeared
in
Guinea,
killing
62
people
so
far.
It
leads to high fever, bleeding and so on. Ebola can kill 90% of those infected (
感染
), especially
in underdeveloped societies like those in Africa.
Ebola
is
named
after
the
Ebola
River,
where
it
was
first
discovered
in
1976.
There
are
five
different types of the Ebola virus, each named after where they first happened: Sudan, Ivory
Coast, Reston, Bundibugyo, and Zaire. The deadliest of the five, Zaire, was responsible for the
2012 outbreak, and is believed to be attacking Guinea.
Ebola
is
naturally
found
in
fruit
bats,
which
pass
on
the
virus
to
other
animals
by
biting
or
sucking on their blood. Humans who are suffering from the Ebola infection might have touched
the bodily fluids (
体液
) of the infected animals. Once infected, a human becomes a carrier of
the deadly virus.
Since we live in an interconnected world, where the situation in one country can affect us all,
the
effects
of
Ebola
are
huge:
damaging
trade
relations,
affecting
foreign
visitors,
and
weakening entire countries. Already the Guinea virus is spreading fast with a few cases spotted
in Conakry
—
the capital city of Guinea, far away from the origin of the virus. It is feared that the
disease may have already reached neighboring Liberia and Sierra Leone, too.
Unfortunately, there are no disease-specific treatments for Ebola. Healthcare workers only
supply the infected people with water to keep them in good condition. Since there have been
many
cases
of
nurses
catching
the
disease
from
patients,
they
are
forced
to
wear
strict
protective clothes, and in some cases, not even allowed to get close to the infected. The fact
that
there
is
no
cure
for
the
Ebola
virus
is
what
makes
the
outbreak
a
challenging
one
to
control.
29.

A. Ebola is naturally found in fruit
B. Ebola is a highly infectious virus
C. Ebola is a newly discovered disease

A. face the danger of catching virus
B. take measures to protect the nurses

A. an English newspaper
B. a tourist guide

There is an English saying :
“
Laughter is the best medicine.
”
Until recently, few people
took
the
saying
very seriously.
Now
however,
doctors
have
begun
to study
laughter and
the
effects
it
has
on
the
human
body.
They
have
found
facts
that
laughter
really
can
improve
people
’
s health.
Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny
films
while
doctors
checked
their
heart
rate,
blood
pressure,
breathing
and
muscles.
It
was
found
that
laughter
has
similar
effects
to
physical
exercise.
It
increases
blood
pressure,
the
heart rate and the rate of breathing; it also works several groups of muscles in the face, the
stomach, and even the feet. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.
Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reducing the effect of pain on
the
body.
In
one
experiment
doctors
produce
pain
on
the
body.
In
one
experiment
doctors
produce pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs. The group which
tolerated(
忍受
) the pain for the longest time was the groups which listened to a funny program.
The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce endorphins in
the brain. These are natural chemicals which diminish both stress and pain.
There is also some fact to suggest that laughter helps the body
’
s immune system, that is,
the system which fights infection. In an experiment, one group of students watched a funny
video
while
another
group
of
students
served
as
the
control
group
----
in
other
words,
a
group with which to compare the first group. Doctors checked the blood of the students in both
groups
and
found
that
the
people
in
the
group
that
watch
the
video
had
an
increase
in
the
activity of their white blood cells, that is, the cells which fight infection.
As a result of these discoveries, some doctors and psychiatrists in the United States now
hold laughter clinics, in which they try to improve their patients
’
condition by encouraging them
to laugh.
They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing, making them
smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter.
33. It can be learnt from the passage that laughter can_______.
A. make people feel younger
B. change people
’
s habits
C. improve peoples health
D. make people love their lives
34. Smiling can produce____.
A. more effects than laughter
B. the same effects as laughter
C. less effects on the human body
D. no effects on the human body
35. The main idea of this passage is that ______.
A. there are several ways of studying the benefits of laughter
B. laughter and physical exercise have the same effects on human body
C. the doctors should learn how to make people laugh
