But why is it that some people could find their way across the Sahara without a map, while others can lose themselves in the next street?Scientists say were all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understood how it works. One theory is that people with a good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it. Research being carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we dont use it, we lose it.“Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around,” says Jim Martland, Research Director of the project. “However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop the skills.”Jim Marland also said that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction. He makes the following suggestions: If you are using a map, turn it so it relates to the way you are facing. If you leave your bike in a strange place, put it near something like a big stone or a tree. Note landmarks on the route (路线) as you go away from your bike. When you return, go back along the same route. Simplify the way of finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town, streams, or walls in the countryside to guide you. Count your steps so that you know how far you have gone and note any landmarks such as tower blocks or hills which can help to find out where you are.41.Scientists believe that _.A. some babies are born with a sense of directionB. people learn a sense of direction as they grow olderC. people never lose their sense of directionD. everybody has a sense of direction from birth42.What is true of seven-year-old children according to the passage?A. They never have a sense of direction without maps.B. They should never be allowed out alone if they dont have a sense of direction.C. They have a sense of direction and can find their way around.D. They can develop a good sense of direction if they are driven around in a car.43.If you leave your bike in a strange place, you should _.A. tie it to a tree so as to prevent it from being stolenB. draw a map of the route to help remember where it isC. not take the same route when you come back to itD. remember something easily recognizable on the route44.According to the passage, the best way to find your way around is to _.A. ask policemen for directionsB. use walls, streams, and streets to guide yourselfC. remember your route by looking out for steps and stairsD. count the number of landmarks that you see45.What is the main idea of this passage?A. Children has a better sense of directionB. Children have the ability to find their way aroundC. The ways to improve sense of directionD. Everyone is born with a sense of direction and it can be improved B It was Monday, Mrs. Smiths dog was hungry, but there was not any meat in the house Considering that there was no better way, Mrs. Smith took a piece of Paper, and wrote the following Words on it：”Give my dog half a pound of meat”Then she gave the paper to her dog and said gently：“Take this to the butcher ,and hes going to give you your lunch today” Holding the piece of paper in his mouth，the dog ran to the butchers shopIt gave the paper to the butcherThe butcher read it carefully, recognized that it was really the ladys handwriting and presently did as be was asked toThe dog was very happy, and ate the meat up immediately At midday, the dog came to the shop againIt gave the butcher a piece of paper againAfter reading ithe gave it half a pound of meat once more The next day, the dog came again exactly at middayAnd as usual，it brought a piece of paper in the mouthThis time the butcher did not take a look at the paper, mud gave the dog its meat，for he had regarded the dog as one of his customers（顾客） But，the dog came again at four oclockAnd the same thing happened once againTo the butchers more surpriseit came for the third time at six oclockand brought with it a third piece of paperThe butcher felt a bit puzzledHe said to himself, “This is a small dogWhy does Mrs.Smith give it so much meat to eat today?” Looking at the piece of Paper, he found that there were not any words on it!46Mrs. Smith treated her little dog quite , Acruelly Bkindly Cbadly DUnfairly47It seemed that the dog knew well that the paper its master gave it Amight do it much harm Bcould do it much good Cwould give the butcher some meat Dwas worth many pounds48The butcher did not give any meat to the dog AWhen he found the words on the Paper were not very clear BBecause he happened to have sold out all the meat in his shopCbefore he felt sure that the words were really written by Mrs. Smith Duntil he was paid enough by Mrs. Smith49From its experiencethe dog found that AOnly the paper with Mrs. Smiths words on it could bring it meat BThe butcher would give the meat to it whenever he saw it CA piece of paper could bring him half a pound of meat DMrs. Smith would pay for the meat it got from the butcher50At the end of the story youll find that Athe butcher found himself cheated by the smart animal Bthe dog was clever enough to write on the Paper Cthe dog dared not go to the butchers any moreDthe but chef was told not to give any meat to the dog CThere is an English saying :“laughter is best medicine .”Until recently ,few people took the saying seriously .Now however ,doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body .They have found that laughter really can improve peoples health .Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body .People watched funny films while doctors checked their hearts ,blood pressure ,breathing and muscles .It was found that laughter had similar effects to physical exercise .It increases blood pressure ,the heart beating and breathing ; it also works several groups of muscles in the face ,the stomach ,and even the feet .If laughter exercises the body ,it must be beneficial .Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body .In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programmes .The group that tolerated(忍耐)the pain for the longest time was the groups which listened to a funny programme .The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemicals in the brain which diminish both stress and pain .As a result of these discoveries ,some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics ,in which they help to improve their patients condition by encouraging them to laugh .They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing ,making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter .51.Doctors have proved the following EXCEPT that . A.smiling does good to health B.laughter can be tolerated C.there is a way to reduce pain D.laughter can work the muscles in the feet 52.The main idea of the passage is .

A.to give better condition to their patients B.in order to improve patients health C.to make patients smile D.to prove smile and laughter have the same effect DMy house is made of wood , glass and stone .It is also made of software .If you come to visit ,youll probably be surprised when you come in . Someone will give you an electronic PIN (个人身份证号码) tesoon to wear .This PIN tells the house who and where you are .The house uses this information to give you what you need . When its dark outside ,the PIN turns on the lights nearest you ,and then turns them off as you walk away from them .Music moves with you too . If the house knows your favorite music , it plays it .The music seems to be everywhere ,but in fact other people in the house hear different music or no music .If you get a telephone call, only the nearest telephone rings .Of course , you are also able to tell the house if you want something .There is a home control console(控制台) , a small machine that turns things on and off around you .The PIN and the console are new ideas ,but they are in fact like many things we have today .If you want to go to a movie ,you need a ticket .If I give you my car keys ,you can use my car . The car works for you because you have the keys . My house works for you because you wear the PIN or hold the console .I believe that ten years from now ,most new homes will have the systems(系统)that Ive put in my house. The systems will probably be even bigger and better than the ones Ive put in today .I like to try new ideas .I know that some of my ideas will work better than others .But I hope that one day I will stop thinking of these systems as new ,and ask myself instead ,“How did I live without them?”56.The writers house is NOT made of .
