页 共 10 页CWhat does your dog do if you lie down on the floor and put your arms or legs out straight toexercise?Does your dog come to your rescue in the same way as if you fell down,or realize youmean to do that?Researchers in Germany carried out a series of experiments to see whether dogsunderstand if humans do things on purpose.For their study,they had 51 dog owners drop off their pets to the laboratory.First,the dogslearned that a human experimenter would feed them treats through a gap in a glass partition(隔断).And the researchers designed two situations,which were known as“unwillingness vs.inability”.Inthe“unwillingness”situation,the experimenter held the food in front of the dogs but didnt give it tothem on purpose,often teasing(戏弄)them before pulling it away.For the“inability”situation,theyhad two conditions,one where the person seemed clumsy(笨拙的)and he appeared as if he weretrying to give the treat to the dogs,but it fell down.In the other,the gap was enveloped and the petcouldnt get the treat.In all of these experiments,the experimenter left the treat on the floor in front of the dogs,andthe dogs were easily able to get to the treat.How quickly they got back the food depended on thespecific situation.The researchers predicted correctly that the dogs would wait longer to go to get thetreat if they thought the experimenter didnt want them to have it,while they went to get it quicklywhen the treat was meant for them.“They probably understood that-This guy is not very skilled buthe wants to give the food to me.Brauer suggests.Bruer says that there could be other factors that led to the dogs such performance in theexperiments.Although she thinks the findings are important,Bruer says she is looking forward towhat other scientists around the world will say.28.What does the underlined word“enveloped”probably mean in Paragraph 2?A.Covered.B.Widened.C.Created.D.Noticed.29.What was most likely to happen in the situation where the feeder appeared clumsy?A.The dogs would leave the food where it was.B.The dogs would try to break through the gapC.The dogs would go and get the food quickly.D.The dogs would wait a while before getting the food.30.Which of the following words can best describe Bruer?A.Careful and open-minded.B.Determined and creative.C.Humorous and lovingD.Strict and patient.学科网(北京)股份 yin 有限公司高三英语试卷第 6 页 共 10 页31.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.How quickly dogs react?B.How quickly dogs learn?C.Can dogs predict your behaviors?D.Can dogs understand your intention?DHave you ever spent half an hour searching the Internet which,as you find out afterwards,lastedthree hours,or opened a book shortly after breakfast and a little while later noticed that the room wasgetting darker?Most people can remember experiencing such a state.Your mind wasnt wandering;you weretotally focused and concentrated on that activity,to such an extent that you were not even aware ofyourself.Psychologists call these fully absorbing experiences flow states,which were discovered andnamed by a world-famous psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi.His celebrated book Flow:ThePsychology of Happiness became an instant best-seller,making its way to the top self-help classics.The state of flow happens under very specific conditions-when we encounter a challenge thatis testing for our skills,and yet our skills and capacities are such that it is just about possible to meetthis challenge.So both the challenge and the skills are at high levels,stretching us almost to the limit.If challenges exceed skills,one can become anxious.If skills exceed challenges,we usually becomebored.Neither of these two cases result in flow.What is also interesting in flow is the almost total absence of emotions during the actual process.One seems to be almost beyond experiencing emotions,most likely because the awareness of self isnot present.Mihaly himself is also very much aware of the potential negative impact of the flow.Onephilosopher once describes his own experience of flow:“When I get totally involved in theconversation,I am not aware of myself,the world around or the passage of time.Sometimes,I maybecome addictive to that existence,unwilling to cope with other daily routines of life,like forgettingdinner,and saying goodbye to my children.”32What is the purpose of Paragraph 1?ATo offer a general background of the topic.BTo make an overall outline for the passage.CTo introduce the topic of the passage.DTo clarify the definition of the topic.33In which of the following experience can we enter flow state?AAdopting a dog.BWatching TV.CPlaying the chess.DArguing with others.34What can we infer from the third paragraph?AThe state of flow is little conditional.BGenius at normal schools often gets bored.CChallenges at high levels push us to the limit.DSkills play the most important part in flow.学科网(北京)股份 yin 有限公司高三英语试卷第 7 页 共 10 页35Why does the writer quote the philosophers words?ATo show the drawbacks of the flow.BTo stress the value of self-awareness.CTo underline the absence of emotions.DTo indicate the difficulty of enjoying the flow.第二节(共第二节(共 5 小题;每小题小题;每小题 2.5 分,满分分,满分 12.5 分)分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两处为多余选项根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两处为多余选项。Much meaning can be conveyed clearly in our eyes,so it is often
