A．related
B．related to
C．relating

A．carried
B．having carried
C．to carry
D．carrying
解析：选D。考查非谓语动词。根据句式结构可知，and连接的是两个并列的谓语动词dressed和went，而carrying my bag在句中作状语。

A．to talk
B．not to talk

A．to attend；there to be
B．attending；there being
C．attended；there be
D．attend；there was
解析：选B。考查非谓语动词。the Blacks是动作的执行者，所以第一个空要用v. ing形式；又因介词about暗示后面应该用v.ing形式，所以第二个空要用there being。

A．Having shown；to be
B．To be shown；is
C．To show；were

解析：选D。考查非谓语动词。从句意可以看出，句子的逻辑主语是the tourists from Taiwan and I，与show之间构成被动关系，同时动作发生在谓语动词wish之前，所以第一空用having been shown，而第二空是there be的变体结构形式。

As soon as the light in the bedroom went out, there was a big noise all through the farm buildings. Word had gone round during the day that old Major, the prize Middle White pig, had had a strange dream on the previous night and wished to communicate it to the other animals. It had been agreed that they should all meet in the big barn(谷仓) as soon as Mr.Jones was safely out of the way.the big barn, Major lay on his bed of straw comfortably. He was twelve years old and had lately grown rather heavy, but he was still a nicelooking pig, with a wise and easygoing appearance. Before long the other animals began to arrive and make themselves comfortable after their different fashions. First came the three dogs, Bluebell, Jessie, and Pincher, and then the pigs, who settled down in the straw immediately beside Major. The two carthorses, Boxer and Clover, came in together, walking very slowly and setting down their vast hairy hoofs(蹄子) with great care for fear that there should be some small animals hidden in the straw. Clover was a motherly big horse approaching middle life, who had never quite got her figure back after her fourth kid.
Boxer was an enormous beast, nearly eighteen hands high, and as strong as any two ordinary horses put together. A white stripe down his nose gave him a somewhat stupid appearance, and in fact he was not of firstrate intelligence, but he was well respected for his steadiness of character and extraordinary abilities. After the horses came Benjamin, the donkey, Benjamin got angry easily. He seldom talked, and when he did, it was usually to make all such remarks—for instance, he would say that God had given him a tail to keep the flies off, but that he would rather have had no tail and no flies. Alone among the animals on the farm he never laughed. If asked why, he would say that he saw nothing to laugh at.
16．All the animals came to the barn to ________．
A．vote for a farm master
B．listen to Major's strange dream
C．discuss how to win a prize
D．share how to drive Mr. Jones away
17．According to the passage, Clover was ________．
A．considerate and in good shape
B．oldaged and out of shape
C．a fat horse with a gentle heart
D．a pretty horse with a nice character

B．His calm character and great powers of work.
C．His good temper and strong build.
D．His steady character and quick mind.
19．Which remark could be to Benjamin's taste?
A．Life is like a box of sweets.
B．Life is an interesting journey.
C．Life is a battle.
D．There is nothing exciting in life.
B[2012·福建卷] en you see someone yawn and you start yawning too? Or how hard it is to be among people laughing and not laugh yourself? Well, apparently it's because we have mirror neurons(神经元)in our brains.the existence of mirror neurons suggests that every time we see someone else do something, our brains imitate(模仿)it, whether or not we actually perform the same action. This explains a great deal about how we learn to smile, talk, walk, dance or play sports. But the idea goes further: mirror neurons not only appear to explain physical actions, they also tell us that there is a biological basis for the way we understand other people.
Mirror neurons can undoubtedly be found all over our brains, but especially in the areas which relate to our ability to use languages, and to understand how other people feel. Researchers have found that mirror neurons relate strongly to language. A group of researchers discovered that if they gave people sentences to listen to(for example：“The hand took hold of the ball”), the same mirror neurons were triggered as when the action was actually performed(in this example, actually taking hold of a ball)．
Any problems with mirror neurons may well result in problems with behavior. Much research suggests that people with social and behavioral problems have mirror neurons which are not fully functioning. However, it is not yet known exactly how these discoveries might help find treatments for social disorders.
Research into mirror neurons seems to provide us with ever more information concerning how humans behave and interact(互动)．Indeed, it may turn out to be the equivalent(相等物)for neuroscience of what Einstein's theory of relativity was for physics. And the next time you feel the urge to cough in the cinema when someone else does—well, perhaps you'll understand why.
20．Mirror neurons can explain ________．why we yawn when we see someone else stay up late
21．The underlined word “triggered” in the third paragraph probably means “________”．________．s
D．determine our knowledge and language abilities
23．What is the passage mainly about?
A．Ways to find mirror neurons.
B．Problems of mirror neurons.
C．Existence of mirror neurons.
D．Functions of mirror neurons.
