Have you ever looked at a cat’s face and wondered what it is thinking? Well, according to a new study, cats have many different facial (面部的) expressions (表情), which show how they are feeling.
The research was carried out by the scientists at the University of California, in the US. They visited a local cat café over several months to record videos of 53 cats, collecting 194 minutes of videos. They found that the cats have 276 different expressions. “Each expression was a mixture (混合) of lip different facial movements, which included licking (舔) their nose, opening their mouth, or widening the pupils of their eyes,” said the scientists. They also found cats use 26 of these facial movements in total, which can be mixed to express (表达) how they are pupil feeling. Dogs use 27 facial movements and humans use a total of 44.
Out of the expressions they recorded, 45% were friendly and 37% were angry. “A friendly cat moves its ears and whiskers forward and closes its eyes. However, an angry cat often flattens (使变平) its ears to its head, makes its pupils smaller and licks its lips,” said the team.
Although the researchers aren’t sure what the cats were trying to communicate with each other using their faces, they plan to study cats in other places to improve their understanding. They also hope that the research could help animal shelters (收容所) improve the way they look after the cats. Some pet owners even suggest the researchers develop an app for them to find out what their cats’ facial expressions really mean.
8. Which picture shows a cat’s angry expression?
A. B. C. D.
9. What might the scientists do next?
A. Use an app to study cats’ expressions.
B. Build an animal shelter to look after cats.
C. Keep on studying to know more about cats.
D. Have a discussion with the pet owners.
10. How does the writer develop the text?

C. By showing opinions and facts.
D. By asking questions.

You may feel that math is hard and boring. Is it possible that you’ve been looking at math in the wrong way? With International Day of Mathematics coming on March 14, we interviewed Li Xing a math professor at Ning Xia University. We asked if math can be beautiful and fun. Here’s what Li said.
Numbers are beautiful
Many people today want to have beautiful looks. But there is math hidden in beautiful human bodies. Measure the length from your head to your belly button (肚脐眼) and from your belly button to your feet. The ratio (比例) of these two numbers is always around 0.618. This is the golden ratio, which can be seen everywhere, like in nature, music and paintings.
In Chinese poems, we can also see the beauty of numbers. As Li Bai wrote, “I’ve sailed a thousand miles through Gorges in a day”, “My boat has left ten thousand mountains far away”. “A thousand miles in one day”, “ten thousand mountains”—all these numbers show how fast Li Bai traveled and how happy he felt. Numbers give us the freedom to imagine.
Curves are beautiful
Sine curves (正弦曲线) are beautiful. They go towards the two opposite directions on and on without ever ending. When you look at them, you may feel like standing by the sea and watching the waves slowly moving. The tangent curve (正切曲线) is like a waterfall. That’s really “dashing down three thousand feet from on high”. If you do a math problem and get that curve, you’ll feel amazing!
Formulas(公式) are beautiful
In a right-angled triangle, the square of the longest side is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides, neither more nor less. How neat! Just as Chinese—American mathematician Chern Shingshen said, “Math is fun!”
11. If the ratio of two numbers is around 0.618, ________.
A. it may show us a golden color
B. it will look like a human body
C. it might bring people a sense of beauty
D. it is as long as the length from a man’s belly button to his feet
12. From the poem of Li Bai in this text, we can know that _______.
A. Li Bai was good at counting numbers
B. Li Bai used numbers to show his feelings
C. Li Bai succeeded in solving math problems
D. Li Bai loved traveling by boat along the river
13. What does a waterfall usually look like in a math way? ________
A. B. C. D.
14. What does the underlined word “equal” mean in Chinese? ________
A. 等同的 B. 整体的 C. 类似的 D. 平均的
15. What is the text mainly about? ________
A. The life of a math professor.
B. The International Day of Mathematics.
C. Why math is beautiful and fun.
D. How math helps us live a better life.

Have you ever looked at a cat’s face and wondered what it is thinking? Well, according to a new study, cats have many different facial (面部的) expressions (表情), which show how they are feeling.
The research was carried out by the scientists at the University of California, in the US. They visited a local cat café over several months to record videos of 53 cats, collecting 194 minutes of videos. They found that the cats have 276 different expressions. “Each expression was a mixture (混合) of lip different facial movements, which included licking (舔) their nose, opening their mouth, or widening the pupils of their eyes,” said the scientists.

Although the researchers aren’t sure what the cats were trying to communicate with each other using their faces, they plan to study cats in other places to improve their understanding. They also hope that the research could help animal shelters (收容所) improve the way they look after the cats.

You may feel that math is hard and boring. Is it possible that you’ve been looking at math in the wrong way? With International Day of Mathematics coming on March 14, we interviewed Li Xing a math professor at Ning Xia University. We asked if math can be beautiful and fun. Here’s what Li said.
Numbers are beautiful
Many people today want to have beautiful looks. But there is math hidden in beautiful human bodies. Measure the length from your head to your belly button (肚脐眼) and from your belly button to your feet. The ratio (比例) of these two numbers is always around 0.618. This is the golden ratio, which can be seen everywhere, like in nature, music and paintings.
In Chinese poems, we can also see the beauty of numbers. As Li Bai wrote, “I’ve sailed a thousand miles through Gorges in a day”, “My boat has left ten thousand mountains far away”. “A thousand miles in one day”, “ten thousand mountains”—all these numbers show how fast Li Bai traveled and how happy he felt. Numbers give us the freedom to imagine.
Curves are beautiful
Sine curves (正弦曲线) are beautiful. They go towards the two opposite directions on and on without ever ending. When you look at them, you may feel like standing by the sea and watching the waves slowly moving. The tangent curve (正切曲线) is like a waterfall. That’s really “dashing down three thousand feet from on high”. If you do a math problem and get that curve, you’ll feel amazing!
Formulas(公式) are beautiful
In a right-angled triangle, the square of the longest side is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides, neither more nor less. How neat! Just as Chinese—American mathematician Chern Shingshen said, “Math is fun!”
11. If the ratio of two numbers is around 0.618, ________.
A. it may show us a golden color
B. it will look like a human body
C. it might bring people a sense of beauty
D. it is as long as the length from a man’s belly button to his feet
12. From the poem of Li Bai in this text, we can know that _______.
A. Li Bai was good at counting numbers
B. Li Bai used numbers to show his feelings
C. Li Bai succeeded in solving math problems
D. Li Bai loved traveling by boat along the river
13. What does a waterfall usually look like in a math way? ________
A. B. C. D.
14. What does the underlined word “equal” mean in Chinese? ________
A. 等同的 B. 整体的 C. 类似的 D. 平均的
15. What is the text mainly about? ________
A. The life of a math professor.
B. The International Day of Mathematics.
C. Why math is beautiful and fun.
D. How math helps us live a better life.
【答案】11. C 12. B 13. C 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了数学的美和趣味性,呼吁人们改变对数学的看法,更全面地认识它。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据“The ratio (比例) of these two numbers is always around 0.618...music and paintings.”可知,这两个数字之间的比例总是在0.618左右,这是黄金比例,比如在大自然、音乐和绘画中随处可见。所以物体比例约为0.618时,选项C“它可以给人们带来美感”符合题意。故选C。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据“all these numbers show how fast Li Bai traveled and how happy he felt. Numbers give us the freedom to imagine.”可知,所有的这些数字都说明李白旅行速度快,心情很愉悦,数字给了我们自由的想象。选项B“李白用数字来表达他的感情”符合题意。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据“The tangent curve is like a waterfall...on high”可知,正切曲线就像一个瀑布,那真是从3000英尺高的地方落下来。选项C图形显示从高到低直接落下,符合题意。故选C。
【14题详解】
词义猜测题。根据“the square of the longest side is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides, neither more nor less”可知,最长边的平方……其他两边的平方和,既不多也不少。所以设空处表示“等于”。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据“With International Day of Mathematics coming on March 14...what Li said”可知,在3月14日国际数学日到来之际,我们采访了宁夏大学的教授李星,我们问数学是否可以是美丽和有趣的问题,他是这么说的。所以全文主要介绍了数学的美和趣味性。故选C。

【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了李明同学的板报主题——我最喜欢的中国古诗。
【41题详解】
根据表格第一列周可凡对古诗“Full River Red”的描述“The poem expressed his deep love for his country.”可知,《满江红》这首诗表达了岳飞对祖国的深情厚爱。故填deep;for。
【42题详解】
根据表格第二列徐辉对古诗“Hunting at Mizhou”的描述“Su is my idol and his attitude towards life influences me a lot.”可知,苏轼是徐辉的偶像,苏轼的生活态度对他的影响很大,“have a great influence on sb.”表示“对某人有很大的影响”。故填influence;on。
【43题详解】
根据表格第二列对古诗“Hunting at Mizhou”作者的介绍“Poet: Su Shi”可知,《密州出猎》这首诗是由苏轼写的。主语“The poem”与谓语动词write“写”之间表示被动关系,再结合空前的be动词is可知,此处应用一般现在时的被动语态,其结构为“is done (sth.) by sb.”。故填written;by。
【44题详解】
根据表格第三列何文对古诗“Spring View”的描述“This poem describes his deep sadness at the broken country.”可知,杜甫在《春景》这首诗中,充分地“描写”了他对“国家破碎”的深切悲痛,“give a full description of sth.”表示“对某事作充分的描述”;“at the broken country”表示“这个破碎的国家”,且先行词country表示物,此处也可用引导词that或which与之构成定语从句“at the country that/which was broken”。故填description;that/which。
【45题详解】
根据表格第三列何文对古诗“Spring View”的描述“I love reading Du Fu’s poems, which help me have a deeper understanding of the history of Tang dynasty.”可知,何文之所以喜欢读杜甫的诗的原因,是因为他认为杜甫的诗可以帮助他更深入地“了解”唐朝的历史。再结合第一空前后“The reason…He Wen loves reading Du Fu’s poems”可知,此处在解释何文喜欢杜甫诗歌的原因,则第一空应用why引导主语从句;understand“了解,理解”,且此处考查“help sb. do sth.”,表示“帮助某人做某事”,则第二空应用其动词原形作宾语补足语。故填why;understand。

Second, on our way home, we should follow the traffic rules. Don’t cross the street when the traffic light is red. When we ride a bike, we mustn’t listen to music or just use one hand. Next, we should eat healthy food and keep away from junk food. Besides, don’t swim in the river. It’s very dangerous.
