Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. （40 points）Text 1Darwin noted that some human emotional expressions might have started as part of a physiological function: forexample, exposing the teeth to bite food. The function, however, took on meaning and became a form of communication which signals anger.The same may be true for the animals. Baby monkeys cry for attention. They also cry to signal to an adult that they want to be carried."Chimpanzees do make upset voice when they are being weaned （断奶）by their mothers or have lost their mothers or another individual J says Anne Pusey, a professor at the University of Minnesota. "They whimper （呜咽）and cry and scream. When we hear these calls, the emotion involved seems obvious. However, they do not weep in the sense of producing tears. I have seen an adolescent male whimpering when he lost sight of his older brother with whom he had been traveling.Babies of many mammalian species, including rats, cry. Moreover, when a baby rat cries, often his mother brings the fallen pup back into the nest. This is probably a straightforward communication, as it is with humans. However, psychologists at the University of Iowa aren't convinced.The Iowan researchers can cause the same crying sounds by producing large decreases and then increases in blood flow. The blood flow also goes down when baby rats get cold. Thus, they conclude baby rats cry in the same way that we sneeze. Of course the rat baby could be crying because he's cold and wants his mother to know.“AH young mammals make cries when separated from their mother/9 says Jaak Panksepp, a psychologist at Bowling Green State University. "If you're willing to call this crying, then certainly other animals show this emotional response." he says, "Some of us take seriously that animals do have emotions.” 1、According to the first paragraph, what kind of emotion does "exposing the teeth express?B. Excitement.A. Disappointment.C. Anger.D. Happiness.2、Which is one probable reason why young chimpanzees might be crying?A , They meet their brother.B. They have nothing to eat.C , They are being breast-fed.D. They are parted from their mother.3、Under what circumstance will baby rats cry just like humans' sneeze?A. Their blood flow is decreased.B. They feel cold and long for affection.C. Their blood flow is increased.D. Their mother brings them back home.4、Where is the passage most likely taken from?A , An animal journal.B. A physiology book.C A health magazine.D. A cultural newspaper.Text 2My neighbor Orlando is a paramedic （急救医士）. He and his wife are some of the nicest people I have ever met. A few years back we started this sort of "favor war”, where one of us would do something for the other, such as shoveling （铲） their driveway or helping them build a shed, and next time the other would try to top it with another favor.Yesterday morning there was maybe 2 or 3 feet of snow on the ground and I remembered he shoveled my driveway for me last snowfall. So I took out my shovel and took care of both our sidewalks and driveways because it was my turn to do a favor back. It took a while but I finished and got into my car for work. What I didn't realize was that Orlando had to work that day too.Fast forward to this morning I got a knock on my door. It was him. He immediately shook my hand and informed me that because I shoveled his driveway and sidewalk for him, he was able to get to work earlier. As soon as he started his shift, a call came through that a young boy was in a medical emergency. Luckily he and his partner were only about 2 minutes away, but the next closest ambulance was in 10 minutes. This kid did not have 10 minutes. He barely had 2 minutes. Because my neighbor got to work sooner, the young boy got to live his life.This isn't a humble brag （吹牛）.This is to inform others that even the smallest favors can have the biggest impacts. It wasn't too much of trouble to shovel his driveway for him, but because I did, the young kid got to see his family again, go back to school again, talk to his friends again and live his life.1、What can we know about the writer and Orlando?A. They once had a conflict.B They signed a favorable agreement.C. They favor shoveling snow together.D. They are always ready to help each other.2、Who saved the boy before it was too late?B , The boy's parents.D. Orlando and his partner.B. No favor is too small.D. Don't lose heart in an emergency.Text 3A. The writer.C. Orlando and his wife.3、What does the writer intend to tell us?A , Never ask for trouble.C. One cannot always be lucky.Last week, Vbdafbne started a test of the UK's first full 5G service, available fbr use by businesses in Salfbrd. It ispart of its plan to trial the technology in seven UK cities. But what can we expect from the next generation of mobile technology?One thing we will see in the preparation for the test is lots of tricks with the new tech. Earlier this year, operators paid almost £1.4 billion for the 5G wavelengths, and to compensate for that cash, they will need to catch the eye of consumers. In September, Vodafone used its bit of the range to display the UK's first hologram （全息）call. The Manchester City captain StephHoughton appeared as a hologram in Newbury. It isn't all holograms, however: 5G will offer faster internet access, with Ofcom （英国通讯管理局）suggesting that video that takes a minute to download on 4G will be available in just a second.The wider application is to support connected equipment on the "internet of things -not just the internet-enabled fridge that can reorder your milk for you, but the network that will enable driverless cars and delivery drones （无人机）tocommunicate with each other.Prof William Webb has warned that the technology could be a case of the emperor's new clothes. Much of the speed increase, he claims, could have been achieved by putting more money in the 4G network, rather than a new technology. Other different voices have suggested that a focus on rolling out wider rural broadband access and addressing current network coverage would be more beneficial to the UK as a whole.Obviously, 5G will also bring a cost to consumers. It requires a handset for both 5G and 4G, and the first 5G-enabled smart phones are expected in the coming year. With the slow pace of network rollout so far, it is likely that consumers will end up upgrading to a new 5G phone well before 5G becomes widely available in the next couple of years.1、Why does Prof William Webb say "the technology could be a case of the emperor's new clothes”?A. He is in favor of the application of the new technology.B. 5G will bring a cost to consumers in their daily life.C. 5G helps people communicate better with each other.D. He prefers more money to be spent on 4G networks.2、The underlined word “addressing“ in the fourth paragraph has the closest meaning to.A. making a speech toB. trying to solveC. managing to decreaseD. responding to3、The last paragraph indicates that.A. ifll take several years to make 5G accessible to the public in the UKB. 5G service shows huge development potential and a broad marketC. customers are eager to use 5G smart phones instead of 4G onesD. it's probable that 5G network rollout is speeding up in Britain4、What do we know about the text?A. Vodafone is successful in spreading the 5G service.B. Steph Houghton appeared as a hologram by 4G .C. The application of 5G will make life much easier.D. 5G phones are available in rural areas of the UK.Text 4We ate on the go more than ever before.
