Today the Leaning Tower has 8 floors and is 54.5 metres tall. By 1990, it was leaning by about 4 metres to one side. It was also slowly sinking into the ground. Many people became worried that it would soon fall down.
In 1998, people began to repair the tower, and by 2001, people moved it back by 45 centimeters. The tower will still lean and it will need repairing again in about 200 years.

The Chongyang Festival falls on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month (农历). So it is also called the Double Ninth Festival. To celebrate the festival, people usually climb mountains and enjoy chrysanthemums (菊花), so the festival is also known as the Height Ascending (登高) Festival or the Chrysanthemum Festival. Nine has a similar pronunciation with “forever”. So the Chinese government set the day as the Seniors’ Day in 1989.
During the Warring States Period, there was the Chongyang Festival. But it was only celebrated in the imperial palace (皇宫). From the Han Dynasty, it began to be popular among the common people. During the Jin Dynasty, there were customs of enjoying chrysanthemums and drinking wine on the day. It was not officially set as a festival until the Tang Dynasty. In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, people in the imperial palace all ate flower cakes and climbed the mountain to celebrate. Climbing the mountain has been a kind of custom since the Western Han Dynasty.
Chrysanthemum means long life, so enjoying chrysanthemums and drinking chrysanthemum tea are also popular. Inserting Zhuyu and sticking chrysanthemums are also traditions to avoid the bad as they have special smells which can repel (驱逐) insects and keep out the cold.
Eating Chongyang cakes is another tradition on the festival. There is no fixed way of the cake. But the one with nine layers (层) with two sheep on it is the best. Two sheep mean Chongyang, and nine layers show people could do well in everything.
11. How many other names does the Chongyang Festival have?
A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.
12. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “officially” ?
A. 民间 B. 官方地 C. 工厂 D. 办公室
13. How did the people in the imperial palace celebrate the Chongyang Festival in the Ming and Qing Dynasties?
A. Eating flower cakes. B. Climbing the mountain.
C. Enjoying chrysanthemums and drinking. D. A and B.
14. What do two sheep on the Chongyang cakes mean?
A. Health. B. Wealth. C. Chongyang. D. Happiness.
15. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. The Chongyang Festival.
B. Some other names of the Chongyang Festival.
C. The reason of celebrating the Chongyang Festival.
D. The meaning of the chrysanthemum.

Why are dogs our best friends. Maybe because they can understand our words much better than we thought, according to a study in Hungary. It found that dogs understand not only what we say, but also how we say it.
“The results were very exciting and very surprising.” said the researcher Attila Andies, from Eotvos Lorand University in Budapest.
For the study, the researchers first trained 13 dogs for months. The dogs had to sit quietly inside a machine, so that the researchers could check their activity.
Then the researcher put headphones on dogs and played people’s voices to them. There were four different voices. Some were positive (积极的) words such as “well done”, or neutral (不带感情色彩的) words like “however”. The words were also in different tones (音调). Some were positive and some were neutral.
Brain scans (扫描) showed that the dogs could recognize (辨认) words, as well as the tone of words, much-like people do. The positive words with a positive tone brought the stronger activity in their brain’s reward centers (奖赏中枢).
“It shows that for dogs, a nice phrase can work very well as a prize; but it works best if both words and tones match.” said Andies.
They also found that dogs deal with meaningful words with the left side of the brain and tones with the right. Human brains work in the same way.
It gave us a new understanding of language, said Andies. That is, not only do humans understand the meaning in words, other species (物种) do too.
16. What was found according to the study in Hungary?
A. Dogs can’t understand people’s words.
B. Dogs can only understand what we say.
C. Dogs can understand what we thought better than our words.
D. Dogs understand not only what we say, but also how we say it.

A. Researchers played with the dogs. B. Researchers made dogs sit inside machine.
C. Researchers scanned the dogs’ brain. D. Researchers played people’s voice to the dogs.
18. Dogs think ________ as a best prize.
A. neutral words with a neutral tone B. neutral words with a positive tone
C. positive words with neutral tone D. positive words with positive tone
19. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A. Human brains don’t work in the same way as dogs do.
B. Dogs deal with meaningful words with the left side of the brain.
C. The researchers trained dogs for years to check their brain activity.
D. Researcher Attila Andies was disappointed at the result of the study.

The Chongyang Festival falls on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month (农历). So it is also called the Double Ninth Festival. To celebrate the festival, people usually climb mountains and enjoy chrysanthemums (菊花), so the festival is also known as the Height Ascending (登高) Festival or the Chrysanthemum Festival. Nine has a similar pronunciation with “forever”. So the Chinese government set the day as the Seniors’ Day in 1989.
During the Warring States Period, there was the Chongyang Festival. But it was only celebrated in the imperial palace (皇宫). From the Han Dynasty, it began to be popular among the common people. During the Jin Dynasty, there were customs of enjoying chrysanthemums and drinking wine on the day. It was not officially set as a festival until the Tang Dynasty. In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, people in the imperial palace all ate flower cakes and climbed the mountain to celebrate. Climbing the mountain has been a kind of custom since the Western Han Dynasty.
Chrysanthemum means long life, so enjoying chrysanthemums and drinking chrysanthemum tea are also popular. Inserting Zhuyu and sticking chrysanthemums are also traditions to avoid the bad as they have special smells which can repel (驱逐) insects and keep out the cold.
Eating Chongyang cakes is another tradition on the festival. There is no fixed way of the cake. But the one with nine layers (层) with two sheep on it is the best. Two sheep mean Chongyang, and nine layers show people could do well in everything.
11. How many other names does the Chongyang Festival have?
A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.
12. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “officially” ?
A. 民间 B. 官方地 C. 工厂 D. 办公室
13. How did the people in the imperial palace celebrate the Chongyang Festival in the Ming and Qing Dynasties?
A. Eating flower cakes. B. Climbing the mountain.
C. Enjoying chrysanthemums and drinking. D. A and B.
14. What do two sheep on the Chongyang cakes mean?
A. Health. B. Wealth. C. Chongyang. D. Happiness.

A. The Chongyang Festival.
B. Some other names of the Chongyang Festival.

【11题详解】
第一段明确指出重阳节的其他名称。文中提到:“So it is also called the Double Ninth Festival... so the festival is also known as the Height Ascending (登高) Festival or the Chrysanthemum Festival.”此外,第一段末尾还提到:“So the Chinese government set the day as the Seniors’ Day in 1989.”题目问的是“other names”,这里一共列举了四个:Double Ninth Festival, Height Ascending Festival, Chrysanthemum Festival, Seniors’ Day。
【12题详解】
句子是“It was not officially set as a festival until the Tang dynasty.”。结合前文提到的战国时期只在皇宫庆祝,汉朝在民间流行,唐朝则是正式确立。对比选项,“官方地”最符合语境,表示国家或朝廷正式认定。
【13题详解】
根据第二段“In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, people in the imperial palace all ate flower cakes and climbed the mountain to celebrate.”可知,明清时期皇宫里的人通过吃花糕和爬山来庆祝。

Why are dogs our best friends. Maybe because they can understand our words much better than we thought, according to a study in Hungary. It found that dogs understand not only what we say, but also how we say it.
“The results were very exciting and very surprising.” said the researcher Attila Andies, from Eotvos Lorand University in Budapest.
For the study, the researchers first trained 13 dogs for months. The dogs had to sit quietly inside a machine, so that the researchers could check their activity.
Then the researcher put headphones on dogs and played people’s voices to them. There were four different voices. Some were positive (积极的) words such as “well done”, or neutral (不带感情色彩的) words like “however”. The words were also in different tones (音调). Some were positive and some were neutral.
Brain scans (扫描) showed that the dogs could recognize (辨认) words, as well as the tone of words, much-like people do. The positive words with a positive tone brought the stronger activity in their brain’s reward centers (奖赏中枢).
“It shows that for dogs, a nice phrase can work very well as a prize; but it works best if both words and tones match.” said Andies.
They also found that dogs deal with meaningful words with the left side of the brain and tones with the right. Human brains work in the same way.
It gave us a new understanding of language, said Andies. That is, not only do humans understand the meaning in words, other species (物种) do too.
16. What was found according to the study in Hungary?
A. Dogs can’t understand people’s words.
B. Dogs can only understand what we say.
C. Dogs can understand what we thought better than our words.
D. Dogs understand not only what we say, but also how we say it.
17. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the study?
A. Researchers played with the dogs. B. Researchers made dogs sit inside machine.
C. Researchers scanned the dogs’ brain. D. Researchers played people’s voice to the dogs.
18. Dogs think ________ as a best prize.
A. neutral words with a neutral tone B. neutral words with a positive tone
C. positive words with neutral tone D. positive words with positive tone
19. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A. Human brains don’t work in the same way as dogs do.
B. Dogs deal with meaningful words with the left side of the brain.
C. The researchers trained dogs for years to check their brain activity.
D. Researcher Attila Andies was disappointed at the result of the study.
20. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Dogs are as clever as humans. B. Dogs are good at learning human’s language.
C. Dogs can understand the meaning in words. D. Dogs can do what human do.
【答案】16. D 17. A 18. D 19. B 20. C
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了匈牙利的一项研究,该研究发现狗不仅能理解人类所说的内容,还能理解说话的方式(音调),并且狗的大脑处理语言的方式与人类相似。
【16题详解】
根据第1段“It found that dogs understand not only what we say, but also how we say it.”可知,研究发现狗不仅理解我们说什么,还理解我们怎么说。
【17题详解】
根据第3段“The dogs had to sit quietly inside machine”、第5段“Brain scans showed that...”及第4段“played people’s voices to them”可知,文中提到了让狗坐在机器里、扫描大脑和播放人声,未提及研究人员和狗玩耍。
【18题详解】
根据第5段“The positive words with a positive tone brought the stronger activity in their brain’s reward centers”可知,积极的词语配合积极的音调能在狗的大脑奖赏中枢带来更强的活动,被视为最好的奖赏。
【19题详解】
根据第7段“They also found that dogs deal with meaningful words with the left side of the brain and tones with the right. Human brains work in the same way.”可知,狗用大脑左侧处理有意义的单词,人类大脑工作方式相同。
【20题详解】
结合全文内容及最后一段“That is, not only do humans understand the meaning in words, other species do too.”可知,文章主要阐述了狗也能理解单词中的含义这一核心发现。

【导语】本文主要讲述了澳大利亚青少年Campbell Remess多年来坚持为生病儿童缝制泰迪熊的感人故事。
【36题详解】
句意:这个故事始于2013年,当时Campbell九岁。整篇文章讲男孩Campbell缝制泰迪熊帮助生病孩子,后面全部讲这件事后续发展。in 2013交代事情的开端、故事的起点,选begin“开始”,用其过去式began。
【37题详解】
句意:但是他的父母说不行,因为他们自己有九个孩子,给生病的孩子买礼物只会花费太多。情态动词would后接动词原形,主语是事情“买礼物这件事”;cost表示“花费(金钱)”,主语是事物,spend也表示“花费”,主语必须是人,所以不能用spend,所以填cost。
【38题详解】
句意:这对他来说很难,因为他以前从未做过这件事。固定句型It be+adj.+for sb.意为“对某人来说……”,本句描述过去的状态,主语It是第三人称单数,be动词用过去式was。
【39题详解】
句意:他从网上下载图案,并通过在线观看视频学习如何制作泰迪熊。make a teddy bear意为“制作泰迪熊”,“疑问词+to do”是固定结构,意为“如何做某事”,作learned的宾语,所以填to make。

【42题详解】
句意:他还启动了一个名为“Campbell的377项目”的项目。project与call之间是被动关系,用过去分词作后置定语,修饰project,表示“被叫作……”,a project called...意为“ 一个名叫……的项目”。
【43题详解】
句意:有时,他也会在网上出售他的泰迪熊,为生病的孩子筹集钱。卖熊的目的是筹钱,此处动词不定式表目的,所以填to raise。
【44题详解】
句意:到目前为止,Campbell已经捐赠了大约1300只泰迪熊。固定短语give away意为“捐赠”;根据时间状语“so far”可知,句子应用现在完成时,主语Campbell是第三人称单数,助动词用has,所以填has given。
【45题详解】
句意:他说他从未想过停止,他会继续让人们脸上绽放笑容。根据“never thought of”以及“keep putting smiles on people’s faces”可知,他从未想过停止,stop意为“停止”,符合语境;介词of后接动词的-ing形式,所以填stopping。
