At the movies, we know that if we reach out to touch Tom Cruise, all we will feel is air. But does a baby have this understanding?To see whether babies know objects are solid. T. Bower designed a method for projecting an optical illusion (视觉影像) of a hanging ball. His plan was to first give babies a real ball, one they could be expected to show surprised in their faces and movements. All the 16 to 24-week-old babies tested were surprised when they reached for the illusion and found that the ball was not there.Grown-ups also have a sense of object permanence. We know that if we put a box in a room and lock the door, the box will still be there when we come back. But does a baby realize that a ball that rolls under a chair does not disappear and go to never-never land?Experiments done by Bower suggest that babies develop a sense of object permanence when they are about 18 weeks old. In his experiments, Bower used a toy train that went behind a screen. When 16-week-old and 22-week-old babies watched the toy train disappear behind the left side of the screen, they looked to the right, expecting it to re-appear. If the experiment took the train off the table and lifted the screen, all the babies seemed surprised not to see the train. This seems to show that all the babies had a sense of object permanence. But the second part of the experiment showed that this was not really the case. The researcher substituted (替换) a ball for the train when it went behind the screen. The 22-week-old babies seemed surprised and looked back to the left side for the train. But the 16-week-old babies did not seem to notice the switch (更换). Thus, the 16-week-old babies seemed to have a sense of “something permanence,” while the 22-week-old babies had a sense of object permanence related to a particular object.【1】The passage is mainly about .A．babies’ sense of sight B．effects of experiments on babiesC．babies’ understanding of objects D．different tests on babies’ feelings【2】In Paragraph 3, “object permanence” means that when out of sight, an object .A．still exists B．keeps its shape C．still stays solid D．is beyond reach 【3】What did Bower use in his experiments?A．A chair B．A screen C．A film D．A box【4】Which of the following statements is true?A．The babies didn’t have a sense of direction.B．The older babies preferred toy trains to balls.C．The younger babies liked looking for missing objectsD．The babies couldn’t tell a ball from its optical illusion.2.I moved into a new house in July. Since then I have met a few of my neighbors who are very nice people. For Christmas, I thought I would do something nice for each of the neighbors I know. There were nine neighbors whom I knew by name or spoke with often when I was out in my yard. I knew which houses they lived in.I decided to add one more to my list. This lady I decided to add lives down the street from me. I meet her every morning walking to work as I drive down the street. She always smiles to me. But I had no idea who she was and which house she lived in.I planned to make small fruit baskets and leave them on my neighbor's front porches (门廊) on Christmas Eve. I signed the cards: “Happy Holidays from 5104 Northumberland Road.”I saved the last for the friendly lady. I finally decided on a house where I met her each morning and guessed that it was hers.My neighbors really appreciated the baskets and would tell me as they saw me in the yard or they would call, and a couple even came by to thank me.This morning I found a small note in the mailbox. It was addressed simply: Resident, 5104 Northumberland Road. The Thank You card really caught me by surprise. I opened it and read the message, “Thank you for the lovely fruit basket you left on our porch. It was very thoughtful. Richard Kelly passed away last week. He talked a lot about how ni ce it was that someone remembered him in his time of illness. He really appreciated it.”I had no idea who Richard Kelly was and that he had been seriously ill. I had left that nice lady’s basket on his porch by mistake. I wanted to say sorry, but that would be wrong. I believe that Mr. Kelly was meant to have that basket because he was dying. I hate that the nice lady did not get to receive a fruit basket on Christmas, but I believe if she knew what had happened, she would be happy. I feel pleased to have helped Richard Kelly's last days be more cheerful.【1】How many Christmas gifts did the author intend to send?A．9.B．8C．10D．11【2】Where did the friendly lady live?A．She lived at the end of Northumberland Road.B．Her address was 5104 Northumberland Road.C．She was thought to share a house with Mr. Kelly.D．The author was not sure about her address at all.【3】How did the author’s neighbors respond to his gifts?A．They liked the gifts very much and were thankful.B．They were thankful that they wanted to be friends.C．They all made phone calls to say “Thank You”.D．They all visited him by person to show gratitude.【4】What does the author mean in the last paragraph?A．He was regretful that the nice lady didn’t receive his gift.B．He was glad to have made Mr. Kelly's life more pleasant.C．He thought Richard Kelly deserved to receive that basket.D．The old lady was happy to sacrifice to make Kelly happy.3.Mrs Keller had a big family. Her husband had a factory in the town. One of her sons was a lawyers and the other two were drivers. And her two daughters worked in the post office. The old woman stayed at home and could do all housework and wouldn’t employ anybody.One evening, the telephone rang while the old woman was preparing supper. She went to answer it. She wastold that one of her sons died in a traffic accident. She heard this and fell in a faint. When she came back to life,she was in hospital. And she needed to be helped after that.Several months later she was told on the telephone her daughter died while she was being operated on. The old woman was so sad that she had to be in hospital again. From then on she was afraid to answer any telephones and sometimes she was afraid hear the bell. Of course it brought them some trouble and some important business was held up. So her husband advised her to see a psychiatrist. The man examined her carefully and then asked her some questions.“You will soon be all right if you follow my advice, Mrs Keller.” said the psychiatrist.The old woman took the medicine the doctor gave on time and tried to forget her dead son and daughter. And two months later she went to see the psychiatrist again.“You have saved me, Doctor,” the old woman said, as soon as she saw him.“Are you afraid to answer the telephone now?”“No,” answered Keller.“I dare answer it whether it rings or not.”【1】Mrs Keller could do all housework because ______.A．she had no money to employ a helper.B．she was strong enough to do all at homeC．she didn’t believe anybodyD．only she was free at home【2】The old woman fell in a faint because _____A．she went to answer the telephone.B．she was very ill that eveningC．she walked in the room carelesslyD．she heard the news about her son’s death.【3】After she came out of hospital, Mrs Keller wasn’t _________as before.A．strong B．able C．clever D．sad【4】______made the old woman not answer the telephone.A．The doctor’s advice B．Her husband’s suggestionC．Her poor health D．The two pieces of bad news4.（1）Secretary.

A recent report said that 40％of Americans hate tipping. In America alone, tipping is a $16 billion-a-year industry. Consumers acting politely ought not to pay more than they have to for a given service. Tips should not exist. So why do they? The common opinion in the past was that tips both rewarded the efforts of good service and reduced uncomfortable feelings of inequality. And also, tipping makes for closer relations. It went without saying that the better the service, the bigger the tip.But according to new research from Cornell University, tips no longer serve any useful function. The paper analyzes numbers they got from 2,547 groups dining at 20 different restaurants. The connection between larger tips and better service was very weak. Only a tiny part of the size of the tip had anything to do with the quality of service.Tipping is better explained, by culture than by the money people spend. In America, the custom came into being a long time ago. It is regarded as part of the accepted cost of a service. In New York restaurants, failing to tip at least l5％ could well mean dissatisfaction from the customers. Hairdressers can expect to get l5％-20％, and the man who delivers your fast food $2. In Europe, tipping is less common. In many restaurants the amount of tip is decided by a standard service charge. In many Asian countries, tipping has never really caught on at all. Only a few have really taken to tipping.According to Michael Lynn，the Cornell papers’ author, countries in which people are more social or outgoing tend to tip more. Tipping may reduce anxiety about being served by strangers. And Mr. Lynn says, “In Ame rica, where people are expressive and eager to mix up with others, tipping is about social approval. If you tip badly, people think less of you. Tipping well is a chance to show off.”【1】This passage is mainly about________.A．different kinds of tipping in different countriesB．the relationship between tipping and customC．the origin and present meaning of tippingD．most American people hate tipping【2】Which of the following best explains the underlined phrase “caught on” ?A．Been hated．B．Become popular．C．Been stopped．D．Been permitted【3】Among the following situations, in your opinion, who is likely to tip most?A．A Frenchman just quarreled with the barber who did his hair badly in New York.B．A Chinese student enjoyed his meal in a famous fast food restaurant in New York.C．A Japanese businessman asked for a pizza delivery from a Pizza Hut in New York.D．An American just had a wonderful dinner in a well known restaurant in New York.【4】We can infer from this passage that________.A．tipping is no longer a good way to satisfy some customers themselvesB．tipping has something to do with people’s characterC．tipping in America can make service better nowD．tipping is especially popular in New York四、阅读填空任务型读写（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）A person searches various websites for different reasons, such as school, work, or entertainment.
