One day his vision n2 up" and later he was diagnosed (诊断) with glaucoma (青 光眼). Then doctors operated on Greenberg's eyes. 3, the surgery didn*t work. Greenberg was going blind. He wasso 4 that he refused to see anyone.As Greenberg* s best friend, Arthur persuaded Greenberg to go back to Columbia and 5 to be his reader. Arthur read 6 to him every day, taking time out from his own study, and Greenberg 7 scoring straight A*s. Still, he was 8 about getting around alone and relied on his friend.Then, one afternoon, Greenberg and Arthur went to Midtown Manhattan.

Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. (40 points)Text 1Science is finaly beginning to embrace animals who were, for a long time, considered second-class citizens.As Annie Potts of Canterbury University has noted, chickens distinguish among one hundred chicken faces and recognize familiar individuals even after months of separation. When given problems to solve, they reason: hens trained to pick colored buttons sometimes choose to give up an immediate food reward for a slightly later (and better) one. Healthy hens may aid friends, and mourn when those friend die.Pigs respond meaningful to human symbols. When a research team led by Candace Croney at Penn State University carried wooden blocks marked with X and O symbols around pigs, only the O carriers offered food to the animals. The pigs soon ignored the X carriers in favor of the O's. Then the team switched from real-life objects to T-shirts printed with X or O symbols. Still, the pigs walked only toward the O-shirted people: they had transferred their knowledge to a two-dimensional format, a not inconsiderable feat of reasoning.I've been guilty of prejudiced expectations, myself. At the start of my career almost four decades ago, I was firmly convinced that monkeys and apes out-think and out-feel other animals. TheyYe other primates(灵长 目动物),after all, animals from our own mammalian(哺孚L动物的)class. Fairly soon, I came to see that along with our closest living relatives, whales too are masters of cultural learning, and elephants express profound joy and mourning with their social companions. Long-term studies in the wild on these mammals helped to fuel a viewpoint shift in our society: the public no longer so easily accepts monkeys made to undergo painful procedure kin laboratories, elephants forced to perform in circuses, and dolphins kept insmall tanks at theme parks.Over time, though, as I began to broaden out even further and explore the inner lives of fish, chickens, pigs, goats, and cows, I started to wonder: Will the new science of "food animals" bring an ethical (伦理的)revolution in terms of who we eat? In other words, will our ethics start to catch up with the development of our science?Animal activists are already there, of course, committed to not eating these animals. But what about the rest of us? Can paying attention to the thinking and feeling of these animals lead us to make changes in who we eat?1、 According to Annie Potts, hens have the ability of.A. interactionB. analysisC. creationD. abstraction2、The research into pigs shows that pigs.A. learn letters quicklyB. have a good eyesightC. can build up a good relationshipD. can apply knowledge to new situations3、Paragraph 4 is mainly about.A. the similarities between mammals and humansB , the necessity of long-term studies on mammalsC. a change in people's attitudes towards animalsD. a discovery of how animals express themselves4、What might be the best title for the passage?A. The Inner Lives of Food AnimalsB The Lifestyles of Food AnimalsC. Science Reports on Food AnimalsD. A Revolution in Food AnimalsText 2Half off usually unaffordable products?Only $49.99 for that $100.00 dinner?That9s the magic of Groupon,but for some small business owners the "great business“ offered by Groupon can be equal to the kiss of death.How could that occur?The math of Groupon seems simple at a glance,but upon further inspection the numbers don't add up when it comes to smaller businesses.A Groupon typically offers a 50% discount on a product or service;then the remaining profit is divided between Groupon and the small business.While Groupon has already received the profit in advance,the merchant is left waiting for their cut.Those worrying numbers are assuming the price cut is 50/50,which,in some cases,is being generous.When you break it down to numbers,a Groupon deal seems disastrous,but it's not only the numbers small business owners have to worry about.The point of Groupon deals is to attract new and hopefully long term customers.Yet,does this actually happen?The majority of consumers buying the Groupon are there for the bargain and don,t return after using their Groupon.CFHS Junior Angelita Pope stated,、love the deals offered by Groupon!They can really save you so much money.However,she went on to say that she hadn't returned once to any of the businesses after using her Groupon.For some small businesses,the pressure lies with the responses of their loyal customers,who watch as new faces get the same product or service for half the price that they have been paying for years.When you break it down,Groupon indicates that the business offering the deal is not only willing to be flexible with their price,but also that their product or service isn't worth the price they're charging for. When combining these factors,it9s no wonder loyal customers are put off by the idea of their favorite shop offering Groupons.Now I by no means say Groupons have bad effects on all businesses;however the storm of Groupon is actually a disaster for a small business.1、What is good about Groupon?A. It can offer a large discount.B , It helps add up the numbers.C - It can improve the quality of the product.D. It brings small business owners more profit.2、CFHS Junior Angelita Pope's statement suggests that .A. small business owners needn't worry about dealsB. people like using Groupon in the same businessC. the purpose of Groupon is to promote businessD. Groupon may not bring customers back3、What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. New faces. B. Loyal customers.C. Groupon dealers. D. Small businesses.4、What could be the best title for the text?A. A new business trend-Groupon dealingB. The development of a Groupon companyC. The effects of Groupon on small businessesD. A fantastic shopping experienceGrouponOctopuses (章鱼)are sea animals famous for their rounded bodies, bulging eyes, and eight long arms. They live in all the world's oceans but there are especially more octopuses in warm, tropical (热带的)waters. Octopuses, like their cousin, the squid (乌贼),are often considered "monsters of the deep”, though some species, or types, occupy relatively shallow waters.Most octopuses stay along the ocean's floor, although some species are pelagic, which means they live near the water's surface. Other octopus species live in deep, dark waters, rising from below at dawn and dusk to search for food. Crabs and shrimps rank among their favorite foods, though some can attack larger prey (猎物),like sharks. Octopuses typically drop down on their prey from above and, using powerful suctions that line their arms, pull the animals into their mouths. The octopus performs its famous backward swim by blowing up water through a muscular tube on the body called a siphon. Octopuses also crawl (爬)along the ocean's floor, putting their arms into small openings to search for food Seals, whales, and large fish prey on octopuses.If threatened, octopuses shoot an inky liquid that darkens the water, confusing the other animals. The octopus can also change to gray, brown, pink, blue, or green to mix with its surroundings. Octopuses may also change color as a way to communicate with other octopuses. Octopuses are solitary creatures that live alone in dens (巢穴)built from rocks, which the octopus moves into place using its powerful arms. Octopuses sometimes even fashion a rock "door” for their dens that pull closed when the octopus is safely inside.1、In which place can we find more Octopuses?A. The ocean near Hainan. B. The river near Canada.C. The Arctic Ocean. D. The South Pole.2、What is a way for Octopuses to communicate with each other?A. Using special signals. B. Making special sounds.C. Living together in a group. D. Changing their own colors.3、What do we know about Octopuses?A. They just stay in deep ocean.B. They eat food by using their teeth.C. They don9t like hunting large animals.D. They shoot an inky liquid to avoid dangers.Text 4More than 90 years has passed since Hollywood's official film organization first proposed plans to build its own museum. Those plans are finally becoming a reality, with the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures set to open in 2019.The project is underway at the site of a historic Los Angeles department store built in 1939. Museum officials say visitors will be able to "experience the magic of cinema by learning about all parts of the film-making process.Film historian Kerry Brougher has been named directors of the museum. Brougher says the museum will include 12 million photographs and 80,000 screenplays as well as props (道具),costumes and other objects from famous films. The Academy Museum will also feature Oscar statuettes (小雕像)donated by actors who won the awards.Brougher says the museum is designed to make visitors feel like they are in a movie, too, with many interactive experiences. "You won't necessarily know what's coming next,“ he adds. "You'll be in environments sometimes that make you feel like you've gone back to the past and that you're in the area that you're actually exploring., He adds that visitors may even get the chance to walk down a red carpet and accept their own Academy Award.Currently, Hollywood only has a few possibilities for visitors. They can go along the Walk of Fame and visit movie studios or see the Dolby Theater, where the Oscars are presented. But beyond these, movie fans have limited possibilities.Eric Garcetti, the mayor of Los Angeles says the Academy Museum will provide visitors the chance to experience many different parts of the film industry all in one place. Garcetti notes the museum will also serve the hundreds of thousands of local people working in film-related businesses. He says they, too, will finally be able to visit a place that celebrates their own Hollywood movie industry.1、When was the idea of building a museum in Hollywood first put forward?A. In the 1920s.B. In 1939.C. In the 1990s.D. In 2019.2、What can we learn from Brougher's words?A. Photos of visitors will be put on display.B. Settings in the museum will feel quite realC. Most visitors will be presented an award.D. Actors will donate much money to the museum.3、What is Eric Garcetti's attitude towards the Academy Museum?A. Supportive. B. Critical.C. Disapproving. D. Cautious.4、What is the best title for the passage?A. The Film-making Process in Hollywood.B , The Film-making Process of Hollywood.C. Hollywood Making Plans of Film Museums.D. Hollywood Getting Its Own Film Museum.Part BDirections:Read the foHowing text and answer the questions by choosing the most suitable subheading from the listA -G for each numbered paragraph (41 一 45).
