　　Ⅰ.阅读理解

　　A

　　(2016·安徽重点中学联考)Can dogs and cats live in perfect harmony in the same home? People who are thinking about adopting a dog as a friend for their cats are worried that they will fight. A recent research has found a new recipe for success. According to the study, if the cat is adopted before the dog, and if they are introduced when still young (less than 6 months for cats, a year for dogs), it is highly probable that the two pets will get along swimmingly. Two­thirds of the homes interviewed reported a positive relationship between their cat and dog.

　　However, it wasn't all sweetness and light. There was a reported coldness between the cat and dog in 25% of the homes, while aggression and fighting were observed in 10% of the homes. One reason for this is probably that some of their body signals are just opposite. For example, when a cat turns its head away it signals aggression, while a dog doing the same signals submission.

　　In homes with cats and dogs living peacefully, researchers observed a surprising behavior. They are learning how to talk each other's language. It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk

　　“Dog”， and dogs can learn how to talk

　　“Cat”.

　　What's interesting is that both cats and dogs have appeared to develop their intelligence. They can learn how to read each other's body signals, suggesting that the two may have more in common than was previously suspected. Once familiar with each other's presence and body language, cats and dogs can play together, greet each other nose to nose, and enjoy sleeping together on the sofa. They can easily share the same water bowl and in some cases groom (梳理) each other.

　　The significance of this research on cats and dogs may go beyond pets — to people who don't get along, including neighbors, colleagues at work, and even world superpowers. If cats and dogs can learn to get along, surely people have a good chance.

　　1.The underlined word “swimmingly” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to “________”.

　　A.early　B.sweetly

　　C.quickly

　　D.smoothly

　　2.What is found surprising about cats and dogs?

　　A.They eat and sleep together.

　　B.They observe each other's behaviors.

　　C.They learn to speak each other's language.

　　3.It is suggested in Paragraph 4 that cats and dogs ________.

　　A.have common interests

　　B.are less different than thought

　　C.have a common body language

　　D.are less intelligent than expected

　　4.What can we human beings learn from cats and dogs?

　　A.We should learn to live in harmony.

　　B.We should know more about animals.

　　C.We should live in peace with animals.

　　D.We should learn more body languages.

　　B

　　Perhaps you think you could easily add to your happiness with more money.Strange as it may seem, if you're unsatisfied, the issue is not a lack of means to meet your desires but a lack of desires — not that you cannot satisfy your tastes but that you don't have enough tastes.

　　Real riches consist of well­developed and hearty capacities

　　to enjoy life.Most people are already swamped (淹没) with things.They eat, wear, go and talk too much.They_live_in_too_big_a_house_with_too_many_rooms,_yet_their_house_of_life_is_a_hut.

　　Your house of life ought to be a mansion (豪宅), a royal palace.Every new taste, every additional interest, every fresh enthusiasm adds a room.Here are several rooms your house of life should have.

　　Art should be a desire for you to develop simply because the world is full of beautiful things.If you only understood how to enjoy them and feed your spirit on them, they would make you as happy as to find plenty of ham and eggs when you're hungry.

　　Literature, classic literature, is a beautiful, richly furnished room where you might find many an hour of rest and refreshment.To gain that love would go toward making you a rich person, for a rich person is not someone who has a library but who likes a library.

　　Music like Mozart's and Bach's shouldn't be absent.Real riches are of the spirit.And when you've brought that spirit up to where classical music feeds it and makes you a little drunk, you have increased your thrills and bettered them.And life is a matter of thrills.

　　Sports, without which you remain poor, mean a lot in life.No matter who you are, you would be more human, and your house of life would be better supported against the bad days, if you could, and did, play a bit.

　　Whatever rooms you might add to your house of life, the secret of enjoying life is to keep adding.

　　5.The author intends to tell us that________.

　　A.true happiness lies in achieving wealth by fair means

　　B.big houses are people's most valued possessions

　　C.big houses can in a sense bring richness of life

　　D.true happiness comes from spiritual riches

　　6.The underlined sentence in the second paragraph probably implies that________.

　　A.however materially rich, they never seem to be satisfied

　　B.however materially rich, they remain spiritually poor

　　C.though their house is big, they prefer a simple life

　　D.though their house is big, it seems to be a cage

　　7.It can be learned from the passage that________.

　　A.more money brings more happiness

　　B.art is needed to make your house beautiful

　　C.literature can enrich your spiritual life

　　D.sports contribute mainly to your physical fitness

　　8.What would be the best title for the passage?

　　A.House of Life

　　B.Secret of Wealth

　　C.Rest and Refreshment

　　D.Interest and Enthusiasm

　　Some Steps for Breaking Through Your Comfort Zone

　　A comfort zone is a self­imposed boundary where a person will refuse to push past. Doing so usually fills him or her with nervousness and anxiety. So let's talk about breaking out of this comfort zone.

　　Get information. To break through your comfort zone you need to first educate yourself. Your goal here is to find out about whatever skill you're pursuing. You'll talk to people who have done the same thing.

　　1.________ And you'll check out articles on the Internet about this subject.

　　Have a plan. After educating yourself it's important to create a plan of action. With this step you're going to write down a step­by­step blueprint for how you're going to break through your comfort zone. 2.________

　　Then you create a plan to get to each level. In this plan you need to create benchmarks. These are mini­goals that put you one step close to pushing past your comfort zone.

　　3.________ This is an important step because the people in your life will keep you on track. You want them to give you that “push” as you're pushing your boundaries. They will make it hard for you to quit because you know you'll look foolish if you did.

　　Remain positive. There will be times when you experience a negative outcome, something that shakes your confidence and makes you feel scared. The trick is to not let anything prevent you from blasting past the point of comfort. Recognize that you will have negative outcomes.

　　4.________
