Cathryn said she was followed by a man holding a knife. The man was wearing a black jacket and scarf, and he spoke with a foreign accent (口音). So she sent her husband a message on the phone. Minutes later, when she looked up from her smartphone, Waffle was gone. So was the man. Officer Steve White from Devon and Cornwall Police said, “All of the officers at the police station dealing with this crime also feel very sad for the family, especially during the Christmas holiday.” Cathryn asked for help online but no good news came. What was worse, Cathryn received a message saying her dog would be killed unless she paid 1,000 pounds. Later, it turned out to be a swindle (诈骗). “The police have caught the person who just wanted to get some money from me by cheating. He didn’t see Waffle,” said Cathryn. “This Christmas is difficult as I’ve got a five-year-old grandson and he loves Waffle. We haven’t told him exactly what happened to Waffle yet. Christmas really is terrible for us. We just want Waffle home. Please help us.” 4. What can we know from the second paragraph? A. Waffle ran away with a stranger. B. Cathryn knew the man in the blue jacket. C. Cathryn noticed the stranger behind her. 5. As for what happened to Cathryn, how did the police officers feel? A. Sad. B. Nervous. C. Hopeless. 6. What can be known from the passage? A Waffle was very expensive. B. Waffle had been in the family for several years. C. Cathryn lied to her grandson about what happened to Waffle. 7. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. A woman asked for help online. B. A dog was lost and still not found. C. The police looked for a man. C My friend once explained the importance of believing good things will happen. That is, you need to imagine success strongly, and then you will succeed. Believing in good things can help people face difficult challenges. Some people believe that success will come to them, and this gives them the courage to go ahead. They expect success, and they feel successful. This, I think, is close to the placebo (安慰剂) effect. If you add medicinal herbs (草药) to your diet to improve your energy level, you may feel that your energy level is improving, even if the herbs are just cabbage. In studies of new medicines, researchers often give some patients sugar pills (药丸) and say the pills are medicine. This helps them find out how well the medicine truly works. Many people do similar things in their daily lives. College students often choose a special shirt or baseball cap to wear during exams. They feel it will bring them good luck. Here in China, one of the newest placebos is “Einstein’s brain”. People are told that if they buy one, they will develop a brain like the famous scientist. Do buyers really believe this? Not really. But by “having” a similar brain, they may feel relaxed and as a result, think more clearly during exams. But there is a condition—you must have studied enough first. 8. What may happen if people imagine success strongly? A. They’ll have no challenges. B. They will be successful. C. Their energy level will improve. 9. To find out how well a new medicine works, researchers may give patients ________ as the medicine. A. cabbages B. sugar pills C. a special shirt 10. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. A special shirt or baseball cap will bring people good luck. B. The “Einstein’s brain” makes people relaxed and think more clearly. C. Buying an “Einstein’s brain” helps people develop a similar brain. 11. The purpose of the passage is to ________. A. tell us the importance of believing in good things B. introduce some new studies on people C. tell us the importance of achieving great success 第二节 (共4小题；每小题2分，满分8分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。 You may have known about many traditional Chinese festivals such as Spring Festival or Lantern Festival, but have you ever heard of Dragon Heads-raising Day?

In the United States, at Wal-Mart, the largest supermarket there, there are many products mostly produced in China. People in America begin to buy more and more Chinese products because of the large number of Chinese imports (进口商品) in their countries. They are even widely popular in other Asian countries. Chinese brand names are also becoming more well-known outside China. Have you heard of Chinese-Americans? They are the Chinese born in the United States. When they visit their family and friends in China, gifts from the USA are a must. And anything “Made in China” shouldn’t be considered in any situation. “When I decide to visit my family members in China, I will have a big headache. What should I buy for them? They may not all speak English, but everyone in China knows those three words,” a Chinese-American said. “When they see the label ‘Made in China’, they will think, ‘Why do you send me this?’” The development of China has surprised the world with its growth. As a result, the other countries are beginning to try to reduce Chinese products with the use of taxes (税). ⑤ However, the development of Chinese products still has a deep influence on the world in many ways. 36. Why do Americans begin to buy more and more Chinese products? ____________________________________________ 37. Where are Chinese-Americans born? ____________________________________________ 38.
