26、 Nowadays，cats and dogs are popular pets. However，when it comes to the relationship with their owners，cats are usually seen as unfriendly and distant with respect to their owners，compared with dogs. It is usual for them to be indifferent(漠不关心的)when humans call their names. Are we sure that they don't understand human voices at all？
A recent study published in the journal of Scientific Reports suggests that we've been fooled.
Japanese scientists found that cats can recognize their names if their owners regularly use them.
In the study，scientists studied 78 domestic cats. They played recordings of voices of their owners saying five words: the first four words they heard were some nouns that resembled their names while the final word they heard was just the cat's name. Then they observed the cats' responses，if there were any.
Most cats moved their ears or heads when they heard their names，while they made no response to other words which sounded seemingly like their names.
That suggested，"cats were paying attention to you，what you say and what you do，"John Bradshaw，an expert on human-animal relations at the University of Bristol，UK，told The Times.
“And cats were just as good as dogs at learning，"she added.
In the study，when people called their names，cats often connected the words with rewards，such as food or play，or with punishments such as having a bath or going to the vet. This made cats sensitive(敏感的)to words. After the cats had been called several times，they could respond to the words.
But the scientists added that while dogs have evolved to follow their owners' orders，cats have not. Although cats appear to be distant，they do have special relationships with their owners.
According to study co-author Atsuko Saito，cats have evolved not to show their emotions as a survival method. One example is illness，which they tend to hide because in the wild，no one can save them and hunters are more likely to pay attention to them, Saito explained.
However，technology may help bridge the communication gap between our feline(猫科的)friends and us. There are now mobile apps available to explain what their meows mean. So，the next time you hear "meow，meow"，your cat may be telling you:“Hi，you haven't cleaned my liter box recently.”
【1】The underlined word “resembled” in paragraph 3 can be replaced by______.
A.were limited to B.were similar to
C.were different from D.were away from
【2】The cats appear distant to their human owners in that______.
A.they are not sensitive to human voices
B.they want to protect themselves from harm
C.they always connect words with punishments
D.they failing to pay attention to their surroundings
【3】What can be inferred from the last paragraph？
A.It's important to communicate with cats.
B.It's difficult to understand the cats' needs.
C.Cats have a good relationship with their owners.
D.We may know cats better with the help of technology.
【4】What is the passage mainly about?
A.Cats do understand their owners. B.Cats are cleverer than dogs.
C.Cats are distant from their owners. D.Cats show respect for their owners.
27、For every one article on some positive aspect, some positive element of life, wellbeing, satisfaction, joy, happiness, you get 21 articles on depression, anxiety and so on. Ratio of 21 to 1. Studies focus primarily on what doesn't work. And this is not a new phenomenon. The science of psychology（心理）has been far more successful on the negative than on the positive side. It has revealed to us much more about man's shortcomings, his illnesses, but little about his potentialities, his virtues or his psychological height. We study a lot of depression and anxiety, misjudgments and errors, very much focusing on this aspect and very little on the positive. If you had a person who 21 hours in a day was depressed and one hour in a day felt good or one day feeling good and then 21 days feeling anxious and depressed, you would say that this person would need help. And I think psychology needs help.
Today depression is 10 times higher than it was in 1960. Now part of it is because there's more awareness, because we measure better. But that's not all. It's also simply because objectively there's more depression. The average age for depression today is less than 15. Kids at very young age are introduced to the "information highway". And very often, they are not prepared, not able to deal with it in an effective way. So when we look at this data, we say we do need more research to help people overcome depression or anxiety. And there seems nothing wrong about that.
According to the studies, 47% Harvard students over the past year have experienced depression to the point of not functioning. So they couldn't leave home. They were really struggling to just basically get through the day. Now this is not unique to United States. We have a global epidemic here. And once again going back: Is the 21:1 ratio good? How can we even think about studying happiness and well-being and love and joy?
What I'm going to argue for is that we do need to also focus on the positive. I am going to talk about three reasons why we should do that. The first reason is that it is important to focus or what works, because what works or what we focus on rather creates reality. If we focus on what is working, we'll have more working in our world, more working in ourselves, more working in our relationships. The second reason why positive psychology as an independent field of study is important is that being happy is not just the negative statement of depression. It doesn't mean just getting rid of depression or anxiety that I am experiencing so I spontaneously（自然而然）become happy. That's not the case. That's not how it works. And finally, prevention, which is the most effective way of preventing hardship, is actually realized by focusing on and cultivating the positive. So for these three reasons, we need positive psychology.
【1】By using the ratio of 21 to 1, the author means in fact that__________.
A．on an average a person is depressed 21 hours a day and feels good one hour
B．most articles and studies focus primarily on what goes wrong
C．the science of psychology has revealed human's nature
D．nearly half of Harvard and nationwide students suffer from depression
【2】Which is the main reason why depression is 10 times higher than it was in 1960?
A．Simply because people are more aware and we measure better
B．Mainly because teenagers are too weak to fight it.
C．Objectively because there's more depression in the present world.
D．Possibly because we lack effective way to deal with depression.
【3】What is NOT closely related to positive psychology?
A．Preventing depression or anxiety by focusing on and cultivating the positive feelings.
B．Offering various ways of overcoming the negative feelings.
C．Focusing on what is working to have more working in our life.
D．Being happy is not equal to avoiding being unhappy.
【4】What might the author agree with in this article?
A．It is essential for our research to focus more on the bright side
B．There is no need for the science of psychology to deal with the negative side.
C．The conflict between the negative psychology and positive one can't be avoided.
D．We have to remove depression completely in order to be happy.
28、 The impression you make at the beginning of an interview is very important Employers often decide to hire someone in the first three minutes of the interview. They judge you by your appearance, attitude and manners.
A friendly smile when you walk into the room is important. A smile shows a confident and positive attitude.When you introduce yourself, make eye contact with the interviewer. Some interviewers offer a handshake. Others don't.
Try to be as natural as possible. But pay attention to your body language. The way you sit, walk, gesture,use your voice and show feelings on your face is all part of your body language. It makes the interviewer know how you feel about yourself and the situation you are in. Are you feeling positively about yourself？Your abilities? Your interest in the job？
Speak clearly and loudly enough. Show interest and enthusiasm in your voice. When you speak, look at the interviewer. Also, don't say negative things about yourself, or former employer.
Listen to questions carefully. If you don't understand a question, ask the interviewer to repeat or explain:
"I'm sorry, but I didn't catch that."
"I'm not sure exactly what you mean."
Almost everyone is nervous in a job interview. Interviewers know that. They don't expect you to be totally calm and relaxed. But they expect you to try to control your nervousness. They expect you to show confidence in your ability to do the job.
At the end of the interview, thank the interviewer for her or his time. It's a good idea to send a short thank-you letter right after the interview, or deliver it by hand.
Phone the company if you have not heard anything after one week. Ask if they have made a decision about the job.
Good luck!

29、Kemira had just jumped in the shower when she heard her mother,Tammy, yelling. Kemira’s 12-day-old daughter was choking. Having fed baby Ryleigh just 30 minutes earlier, the 24-year-old new mother burst out of the bathroom and began patting (轻拍) her daughter on the back, but the baby didn’t make a sound. Kemira knew they needed to get to the hospital fast.
They had barely made it out of their neighborhood when the flashing lights of a police car appeared behind them. Officer Will Kimbro stopped the speeding driver. Tammy pulled over and jumped out of the car, crying that her granddaughter had stopped breathing. Desperate for help, Kemira handed her daughter to Kimbro. He found her heart was barely beating, and called an ambulance---it would take seven minutes, and the hospital was even further away. That was seven minutes Ryleigh didn’t have, because her lips had already become blue.
The fact that Kimbro was there was something of a miracle. He is a school police officer who usually spends his days patrolling (巡逻) the middle school ten miles away. But he travels further when school is out in the summer. Even luckier: He had recently completed a first-aid class.
Officer Kimbro gave the baby to Kemira to hold. He checked Ryleigh’s pulse and then began tapping and pressing her chest. Thanks to the class, Kimbro knew the choking baby didn’t have a chance if there was a blockage (堵塞物), and he used one finger to clear her throat. Twenty seconds later, Ryleigh began to cry. “If she’s crying like that, she’s breathing,” said Kimbro. Before the ambulance arrived, Kimbro continued giving first aid. The whole time he was thinking, “Don’t let this baby die in front of her mother and grandmother.”
At the hospital, Ryleigh recovered quickly, and she was brought back to life thanks to a determined school police officer who was in the right place at the right time.
【1】Why did Kimbro stop the car?
A．Kemira signaled to him for help.
B．Tammy drove faster than the legal limit.
C．There was a traffic jam in the neighborhood.
D．The baby had to be taken to hospital at once.
【2】What was Kemira’s reaction after being stopped?
A．She was too angry to explain herself.
B．She tried to do all she could to save her baby.
C．She got mad at Kimbro and gave up hope.
D．She lost her mind and didn’t know what to do.
【3】Kimbro felt sure that his aid worked when ________.
A．he noticed Ryleigh’s lips were blue
B．he checked Ryleigh’s pulse
C．he pressed Ryleigh’s chest
D．he heard Ryleigh crying
【4】Which of the following words can best describe Kimbro?
A．Warm and lucky.
B．Brave and generous.
C．Kind and responsible.
D．Intelligent and skillful.
