total of 688 bridges were built along the route().The trains that run the Death Railway are
3rd-class,meaning they have no air-conditioners and mostly long wooden seats.It's a tourist

some bad guys at that time,which caused a bad effect on him.But his mother often told him the
two of them needed to continue to keep the lines of communication open."When you start
noticing behavior changes,talk to your kids,"she said."DJ and I are very open.We talk to each
other about everything."

Dog owners know that their dogs understand and answer orders such as“sit”and“stay”.
Many believe that dogs also understand words connected to their favorite objects."Bring me your
ball"will often result in exactly that.
A new study in Hungary has found that beyond being able to answer orders like "roll over",
dogs can learn to colligate words with exact objects.This is a relationship with language called
referential understanding that has been unproven in dogs.
The study involved 18 dogs and a medical procedure using electrodes()attached to dogs'
heads to measure brain activity and record brainwaves.Dog owners taking part in the study
would play an audio clip(音频片段)in which they said the name of their dog'stoy-like“ball”or
"frisbee"-and then they would show the dog an object.The researchers measured the dogs'
brain activity when the object in the recording matched the object that was displayed and also
when it differed.The study found a different brain pattern when the dogs were shown an object
that matched the word compared to when it did not.The finding suggests the animals created a
mental image of an object based on hearing the word for it.
Lilla Magyari,a co-lead writer of the study,said that while other animals have been shown
to have some degree of referential understanding of language,those animals have usually been
highly trained to do so."In dogs,"she said,"the findings show that such abilities appear to be
inborn and require no special training or talent.""The study supports ideas about language
evolution()which say that referential understanding is not necessarily unique to humans,"
added Magyari.
Scientists believe the first dogs began to be kept by humans up to 30,000 years ago.The
animals have lived closely alongside us ever since.But whether dogs gain the ability to
understand referential language during that evolution remains unclear.
28.What does the underlined word "colligate"in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Compare.
B.Connect.
C.Exchange.
D.Mix.

29.What did dog owners do in the study?
A.They recorded their dog's brainwaves.
B.They measured their dog's brain activity.
C.They played the well-prepared recordings.
D.They called out their dog's name repeatedly.
S0.Which statement does Magyari probably agree with?
A.Dogs may be smarter than imagined.
B.Dogs are the cleverest of all animals.
C.All animals have referential understanding.
D.Referential understanding is unique to humans.
31.What can be the bcst title for the text?
A.Dogs Can Answer Specific Orders
B.Dogs Have Proven to Be Closest to Humans
C.Why Can Dogs Follow Our Orders?
D.How Well Does Your Dog Understand You?

Writing things out by hand might seem boring and slow.But handwriting can increase
links()across brain regions.That includes some with roles in learning and memory.The
new finding adds to growing evidence of handwriting's benefits.
Scientists researched on the brain activity of college students who wrote by hand or typed
words.Compared with when they typed,more of the students'brain regions worked together
when students wrote hurriedly with a pen.This condition also showed up in brainwaves-
patterns of electrical activity-that have been linked with forming memories.That might mean
writing notes by hand could improve memory of the material for a test,for instance.
Previous research had shown that handwriting improves spelling and the ability to remember
what you've learned.Handwriting also strengthens the understanding of concepts().
Scientists think that the slow process of tracing()out letters and words gives people more
time to process material and learn it.
This new study indicates why handwriting seems so good for memory."There is a key
difference in brain organization for handwriting,when compared with typing,"says Ramesh,a
scientist who works at the University of California,Merced.With handwriting,the researchers
expected to see an increase of brain activity in areas linked to movement.But they also saw an
improvement in certain waves related to learning and memory.And when students wrote by
hand,interesting connections appeared.
Handwriting may aid learning.But typing is often easier,faster and more practical.So
students and teachers alike should decide,based on the task,whether to write it out or type.For
example,using handwriting to take notes might help you hang on to information,while typing
an essay could help you get ideas down to the page faster,before you forget them.
Though more work is needed to find the best strategy for learning,handwriting has shown
its value.So it shouldn't be left behind in the digital age."Schools need to bring in more
handwriting into course design,"Ramesh says.Some places are even creating laws that would
make students handwrite more.
32.What does the new study find about handwriting?
A.It can strengthen one's spelling ability.
B.It can help throw light on concepts.
C.It can help master what you've learned.
D.It can improve learning and memory.
33.How can handwriting benefit us?
A.By separating our brain regions.
B.By adding pressure to our brain.
C.By promoting our brain activity.
D.By connecting our hands with the brain.

A learning log (is an educational tool designed to improve children's learning
experience.36 It can be applied by homeschoolers and other students accepting
non-traditional education as well.
A learning log can be used in a variety of ways.For example,students might be asked to
take five minutes at the end of the class to write in their learning logs about what they learned.
37 Learning logs can also be used for taking notes,or for responding to reading,classroom
learning,and other forms of input.
Teachers and students can work together with a learning log to set clear goals and to record
the processes used to achieve those goals.For example,at the beginning of the term,a student
might sit down with a teacher and produce a list of topics which he or she should be familiar with
by the end of the term.Learning logs can also be used to record out-of-class experiences.38
Teachers may regularly check a student's learning log to see areas where the student may
need improvement.For example,a student struggling in a science class might not be frank about
the issue.39 Recording this issue would allow the teacher to customize a response to the
student to help him or her improve.
40 Some learning logs include the recording of homework lists,which parents can use to
monitor()their children and make sure that they're doing all of their homework.And
parents can find whether their kids have any problems related to study.If they do have some,
they can take measures to help them in time.
A.It can be used in common school environments.
B.Parents can find learning logs are really helpful.
C.The log-keeper can clearly see how he or she has progressed.
D.Students take part in a school project and record it in a learning log.
E.This provides an opportunity for students to organize their thoughts.
F.But the learning log could show that the student was failing to master some concepts.
G.Students can use them to record learning experiences which occur beyond the schoolyard.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I was shy when I was ten,and most of the time I was afraid of talking to people around.But
then one day,one single ride on a school bus changed all that.
The school bus that day was crowded,hot and smelly.The windows were all rolled up-the
bus driver's orders-it was simply raining too hard to have them down.I sat alone as usual,
speaking to no one.
The bus stopped,waiting for an accident to clear.As I sat quietly,I saw a very small and
thin cat across the street on the other side of the road.Poor cat,I thought.He was all wet and
didn't seem to know where to go to get out of the rain.I wanted to go to get the cat,but I knew
that the bus driver,Mrs Foster,would never allow me to get off the bus.It was against the rules
to even stand up,so I knew that I would be in big trouble for trying to rescue a cat across a busy,
rainy street.
My window became unclear again,and when I wiped()the window clear,I could see that
the cat was now struggling in what seemed to be a rushing,dirty river.He swallowed()water
and took quick deep breaths as he fought the current with all of his strength.
My heart was racing.Tears were rolling down my cheeks.I felt like I was drowning()
along with the little cat.I wanted to rush off the bus without asking permission,pull the cat
from the water,and cover him with my warm jacket.But I also pictured getting into trouble
before the cat could be saved.And I imagined the other kids would laugh at me.
The bus began to move forward,and the traffic was finally moving.The cat's eyes locked
onto mine.He was begging for help.I looked around,but no one else seemed to have noticed.
The weight of hopelessness surrounded me.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I couldn't sit there,seeing him dying.
Mrs Foster came back and handed me the poor little cat.
