After all, they could not speak our languages. It was when I got familiar with the work thatI got my golden retriever(金毛寻回犬),whom I named Angel. As she matured and went through obedience training, I realized that she would be a good partner.Angel is ten now and still works every week. As a rule, she visits two hospitals, a day care center for the elderly, and our library5 s PAWS for Reading program. Angel has also helped out at a children's special needs camp. She is so popular that everywhere we go people recognize her, especially the kids she has worked with.We have seen some very special things through our pet therapy work. I brought Angel to our local hospital to visit a woman who was completely paralyzed(瘫痪的)on her right side from a stroke. One day, my husband, Jack, asked her if she wanted to give Angel a treat. She nodded. Angel gently took the treat. Then the woman raised her right hand and started petting Angel. Her friend was in the room and said, “She hasn't been able to move that hand since she had her stroke! ”Somehow it seems appropriate that when Angel visits the hospital, she also performs tricks for the patients with her paws. The best one is when she crouches on the floor and crosses her paws. She stays still and doesn't move until Jack says “Best wishes”. It's the best wishes for all the people Angel meets as well as for herself.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了金毛寻回犬Angel参与宠物疗法的相关工作的故事。4. Why does the author want to be a recorder?A.

As their newest game releases Assassin s Creed Originsy they have also released their Discovery Tours. These tours give players a chance to walk the streets of ancient Egypt, explore Alexandria and the pyramids, and learn about wildlife and geography. For students, experiencing the ancient world in this interactive way can be more interesting and effective than just reading a textbook or watching a documentary about what they are studying.Assassin s Creed is not the only game series that can be educational either. What is important about the role of historical games is the level of choice. When watching a film, students are passive receivers of the content. However, when playing a game students have an active role to play in history. A focus on choices and consequences is an important element of teaching and understanding history, so historical games can be a valuable teaching tool even if they aren' t completely historically accurate. They have the power to immerse students in faraway worlds and allow them to think critically about the cause and consequence, think about why historical events unfolded in the way they did, and even think about possible alternative outcomes. All of these are critical for historical thinking processes. No longer do students need to rely only on reading textbooks or on instructors for knowledge.When carrying this out in your class, remember that not all students enjoy playing video games, but they can still be a valuable learning tool. The instructor also needs to be an active facilitator and take note of teachable moments. A video game is not going to teach a class; it requires an awesome instructor to make everything come together. With the power of video games, ancient worlds no longer need to be limited to the pages of a textbook.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了对学生来说刺客信条游戏通 过创设沉浸式历史场景使历史学习更有趣、更高效。老师作为课堂的组织者,也 应该发挥积极的作用,引导学生更好地利用游戏学习。8.

You' re done for the day. What you may not realize, however, is that the learning process actually continues in your dreams.It might sound like science fiction, but researchers are increasingly focusing on the relationship between the knowledge and skills our brains absorb during the day and the often strange imaginings they generate at night. Scientists have found that dreaming about a task we've learned improves performance in that activity (suggesting that there's some truth to the popular idea that we' re "getting“ a foreign language once we begin dreaming in it). What's more, dreaming may be an essential part of understanding, organizing and retaining what we learned.While we sleep, research indicates, the brain replays the patterns of activity it experienced during waking hours, allowing us to enter what one psychologist calls a neural (神经的)virtual reality. A vivid example of such replays can be seen in a video researchers made recently about sleep disorders. They taught a series of dance moves to patients suffering from sleepwalking and related conditions. They then videotaped the subjects as they slept. Lying in bed, eyes closed, one female patient on the video performs the dance moves she learned earlier.This shows that while our bodies are at rest, our brains are drawing what's important from the information and events we've recently encountered, then integrating that material into the vast store of what we already know. In a 2010 study, researchers reported that college students who dreamed about a computer maze (迷宫)task they had learned showed a tenfold improvement in their ability to find their way through the maze compared with participants who did not dream about the task.Robert Stickgold, one of the Harvard researchers, suggested that studying right before bedtime or taking a nap following a study session in the afternoon might increase the probability of dreaming about the material. Think about that as you go to sleep tonight.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。科学家们发现,在梦中梦到我们学过的东西,会提高我们的学习效果。12. What happens when one enters a dream state?A. The body continues to act as if the sleeper were awake.B. The neural activity of the brain will become intensified.C. The brain once again experiences the learning activities of the day.D. The brain behaves as if it were playing a virtual reality video game.C 细节理解题。根据第三段第一句中的“ While we sleep , research indicates, the brain replays the patterns of activity it experienced during waking hours”可知,做梦时大脑会再次体验当天的学习活动,故C项正确。13. What does the brain do while we are sleeping?A. It replaces old information with new material.B. It processes and absorbs newly acquired information.C. It regroups information and places it in different files.D. It systematizes all the information collected during the day.B 细节理解题。根据第四段第一句可知,当我们的身体处于休息状态时, 我们的大脑会从我们最近遇到的信息和事件中提取重要的信息,然后将这些信息 整合到我们已经知道的大量信息中。据此可知,当我们入睡时,大脑会处理并吸 收新获得的信息,故B项正确。14. How can learning be enhanced according to Robert Stickgold?A. Staying up late before finally going to bed.B. Having a period of sleep right after studying.C. Having a dream about anything you are interested in.D. Thinking about the chances of dreaming about the material.B 推理判断题。根据尾段第一句可知,Robert Stickgold认为,就寝前学习 或下午学习完后打个盹儿,都可能会增加梦到所学东西的概率。据此可推知, RobertStickgold认为学习后睡一会儿能增强学习的效果,故B项正确。15. What is the research discussed in the passage mainly about?A. How study affects people's dreams.B. Why people learn more after sleeping.C. What time students should study and sleep.D. How dreaming may lead to improved learning outcomes.D 推理判断题。通读文章可推知,该研究主要探讨了做梦是如何提高学习 效果的,故D项正确。II.阅读七选五(2021无锡市调研考试)Have someone ever told you “If you eat before bedtime, you are more likely to get fat“ ?1 This belief originated whenresearchers found the relation between individuals snacking late at night and having a BMI that categorizes them as obese (月巴胖的)people.Is eating late at night, especially after 8 pm, really going to make you gain weight? One theory is that your metabolism (新陈代谢)slows down when you are asleep. 2 Thus the calories you get right before bedtime will not be burned as much as they will be while you' re awake.Although
