Animals in the City
Recently, there have been many reports in newspapers and on TV about big animals coming into towns and cities. What happens when big animals come into our cities？Is it a good thing or is it dangerous for us and the animals？
Wild animals usually come into cities to look for food. In Cape Town, South Africa, baboons（狒狒）sometimes come into the suburbs. They eat fruit from gardens and go into peoples kitchens！Baboons are strong animals and sometimes they scare children and fight with pet dogs. Many people do not like them, but the city can be dangerous for baboons too. Sometimes, baboons are hurt in car accidents. The city council in Cape Town has a team of Baboon Monitors. Their job is to find baboons in the city and take them back to the countryside. The problem is that a lot of baboons will come back to the city to find food again.
In Berlin, Germany, groups of wild pigs sometimes come into the city to look for food. They eat flowers and plants and dig in gardens and parks in the city. They also walk in the street and cause traffic accidents. Some city residents like the pigs and give them food. But the city council is worried about the traffic accidents. They have told people to stop giving the pigs food and have put up fences to stop the pigs from coming into the city.
In Moscow, Russia, there are 35,000 wild dogs. They live in parks, empty houses, markets and train stations. Some of the dogs were pets that people did not want, so they left them on the streets. Others were born on the streets and have always lived there. A lot of people like them and are used to seeing them on the streets. They give the dogs food and water.

What Happens When You Stop Exercising
Have you ever wondered what would happen if you stopped exercising？A new study on twins was published in the journal Medicine & Science. The results of the study are dramatic.
In the study, researchers looked at 10 pairs of twin men. Each set of twins was in their mid-30s.Each had been brought up in the same family. Since they were identical, they shared the same DNA. They had maintained the same level of physical activity for most of their lives. But there was one difference. One twin of each set had cut on exercising in the past few years due to work or family pressure. On average, the less active twin exercised less than twice a week, while the active twin exercised at least twice a week. The research team put each twin through a set of medical tests to study their overall health.
The results showed big differences. While the more active twins had lower body fat percentage, better endurance level, and normal sensitivity, the inactive twins had about seven more pounds of body fat, worse endurance, and signs of disease. Not only were their bodies different；their brains were different as well. The active twins had more gray matter（the information processing part of the brain）, particularly in areas that control balance. The conclusion of the study is clear. Quitting your fitness routine can bring negative effects to your body and your brain as well. Considering the less active twins in the study had become couch potatoes（沉溺于看电视的人）only recently, these changes can sneak up on you a lot sooner than youd think. So keep exercising. It is beneficial to your overall health！
11.This text is mainly about
A. the importance of DNA
B. the role of exercise
C. the birth of a new journal
D. the difference between twins
12.Researchers chose twins for their study mostly because they
A. shared the same DNA
B. looked alike
C. had the same lifestyle
D. grew up together
13.The twins in the study differed in
A. sleeping habits
B. exercise frequency
C. working hours
D. food preference
14. The study found that the more active twins became
A. less creative
B. less sensitive
C. more emotional
D. more endurable
15. The phrase "sneak up on" (Para. 4) most probably means
A. protect
B. attack
C. affect
D. benefit

Bicycle Commuting
I may not be a movie star, best-selling author, or millionaire when Igrow up，but one thing I will be known for, at least locally，is commuting by bicycle. Is sad to see how few people do even though many could. Lots of people eagerly campaign for the reduction of greenhouse gases, but by driving cars, theyre sill contributing to the problem.
You might be picturing me as an extreme environmentalist (环保主义者)，but Im not one
of those teenagers who wear shirts that say "Help save the world: Recycle." Actually，my interest in exercise, health, and fitness led me to cycling.
Cycling can help you lose weight, improve your health, and prevent many diseases. Cycling also carries a relatively low chance of injury.
While being good for your body, bicycle commuting is also a great way to cut greenhouse gases.
Many environmentalists recycle， plant tees, and drive hybrid cars (混合动力汽车)，but bicycle commuting could be even more effective than all of those combined. You could cut down the amount of greenhouse gases just by commuting by bicycle a few times a week.
Bicycle commuting saves money too. When you buy your bicyde and the things that usually go with it. You might be shocked by the cost. But if you think about the increasingly high gas prices, you will know for sure that you can save a significant amount each year by not driving a car.
You might think that you dont have time for bicycle commuting Actually. you probably do.
You could cut back on your TV time and pick up this activity. It helps you care for the environment , save money, and most importantly get fit.

him， she said, ”Robert, what a wonderful mess you have made!”Well, the damage has already been done. Would you like to play in the milk for a few. minutes before we clean it up?”
Indeed, he did。After a few minutes, his mother said,” Rober, whenever you make a mess like this, eventually you have to clean it up. So，how would youlike to do that? We could use a sponge (海绵) or a towel, Which do you prefer?" He chose
the sponge, and together they cleaned up the spilt milk.
His mother then said,“You know, what we have here is a failed experiment in, how to effectively carry a big milk bottle with two tiny hands. Lets go out in the，back yard and fill the bottle with water and see if you can discover a way to carry it without dropping it" The litle boy learned that if he grasped the bottle at the top near the lip with both hands， he could carry it without dropping it.
The scientist remarked that it was then that he knew he didn t need to be afraid to make mistakes. Instead, mistakes were just opportunities for 1 earmi ng something new，which is, after all, what scientific experiments are all about. Even if the

一、阅读判断（第1~10题，每题1分，共10分）
Lacking in Self-Esteem (自尊)? Good for you!
According to psychological and educational theories, self-esteem is essential for a successful life. Generations of children, especially minority kids, have been educated according to the theory that they lack self-esteem, and that this deficiency is central to any problems they may have in making their way in the world.
Well, guess what? A new research has found that self-esteem can be just as high among grade D students and drunk drivers as it is among Nobel Prize winners and former presidents. In fact, people with high self-esteem can engage in far more anti-social behavior than those with low self-esteem. “We used to believe that high self-esteem would cause all sorts of positive consequences and that if we raised self-esteem, people would do better in life,” a researcher said. “Mostly, the data have failed to support that.” Racists, street thugs (恶棍) and school bullies (恶霸) all have high scores on the self-esteem tests. And you can see why. If you think you’re highly gifted, you’re particularly offended if other people don’t treat you that way. So you hit out or commit crimes to defend your pride. After all, who are they to suggest that you could be doing something wrong? What do they know?
Self-esteem can also be an educational concern. College teachers are constantly complaining about the high self-esteem of their students. When every grade in the school is assessed so as to make the kid feel good rather than to give an accurate measure of his work, the kid can develop self-esteem dangerously unrelated to the truth. When he’s told he is getting a C grade in college, he can then get deeply offended or extremely angry. Weak professors give in to the pressure – hence, grade inflation, which results in their students’ vague touch with reality.

Organic Farming
During thousands of years of huma civilization, the raising of animals and growing of plants have always been organic. Chemicals for farming first came up at the turn of the 20th century. Widespread use of chemicals began after World War II. In the 1950s and 60s farmers started using chemical fertilizers and pesticides (杀虫剂). Recently, however, more and more farmers have been returning to organic farming.
In organic farming, farm products are produced in more natural ways. Crops, meat and other food are produced without chemicals. Chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and growth hormones (激素) are forbidden. Farmers enrich the soil with natural fertilizers. They pull out weeds by hand. Hay and straw are put between the rows of plants to stop weeding. They rely on the natural enemies of pests to control pests. Animals are fed organically and can eat grass outdoors. Cows, for example, are kept in pastures (草场) and fields. Vegetables and fruit are also produced with organic methods.
Organic farming enjoys many advantages. For example, crop rotation can preserve the good qualities of soils. The growing of different crops can keep soils healthy and fertile. Organic farming is healthier for farm workers, and there are fewer remains of chemicals in food. In the long run, organic farms save energy and protect the environment. It can slow down global warming and reduce the pollution of ground water.
Meanwhile, there are some disadvantages. Organic food is more expensive. Organic products may cost up to 40% more. Production costs are higher as farmers need more workers, and the land output is much less. Marketing and distribution is not efficient because organic food is provided in smaller amount. Crop illness may happen very often. Besides, organic farming cannot produce enough food for the world’s population to survive. This could lead to starvation in countries that can produce enough food today.
11. Organic farming ______.
A. started in the 1950s
B. had a short history
C. has become popular in recent years
D. was promoted by World War II
12. In organic farming ______.
A. cows can move around in fields

13. The phrase “crop rotation” (Para. 3) probably means “______”.
A. growing high-yielding crops

15. The problem of organic farming is ______.
A. poor qualities of soils

Do You Love Your Dog More Than Humans?
Elizabeth Anderson once had a dog named Grace.She and her husband cared for Grace and tried to keep her out of trouble.They took her on vacations and enjoyed her company around the house.When Grace died at age 14,they were deeply upset.Because Grace was a dog,“I was unable to talk to anyone about this great grief,”says Anderson.
“But its common to feel that way after the loss of a dog,”says Stanley Coren,a professor of psychology.“Our relationship with dogs is simple.Some might call it true love.”
The bond between people and their dogs is a lot like love.In one recent study,when the dogs and their owners just looked at each other,they both had a higher level of the hormone (荷尔蒙)associated with love.“It is very natural to form a bond between dogs and humans,” says Takefumi Kikusui,author of the study.“But we found the same cant be said for humans and wolves.”
“Dogs are mans best friend,”says Coren.“Weve trained them to be that way.We invented the dog to fit in our lives.For 14,000 years,weve been creating an animal which understands our communications and we understand its communications.They have a bond with us.”For example,if a person points to something in a distance,a dog will look in the direction of the finger,just like a human.But what about a wolf?“It would simply look at the finger,”Coren says.
For Anderson,dogs are more lovable than humans.She says,“They try their best to please us.They want to do whatever we want to do.Their love is not limited.They are good at all the things we enjoy in a relationship.”

Secrets About Professional Chocolate Tasters
① Peoples faces light up when I say I taste chocolate for a living,but its not always delicious.I also have to taste bad chocolate.Im usually in a small room and sit in front of a computer to record information.Sometimes the room has red lighting.So I can evaluate chocolate only by taste,not appearance.
② I can sample as many as 30 chocolates per day.To taste them professionally,I spit the sweets back out.Thats another not-so-sweet part of the job.Between samples,I wait 30 seconds to let my senses rest,and I chew half an unsalted biscuit and drink plain warm water. ③ First I smell the chocolate and record it.I also listen:Old chocolate doesnt make a clear and sharp sound when broken.Then I put a tiny piece in my mouth and leave it there for a few seconds.I let it melt and record the four basic tastes—sweet,sour,bitter and salty.
4 I love chocolate.The bottom part of my refrigerator is filled with chocolate from different parts of the world.My favorite types are very high in cocoa (可可粉).Before I started tasting chocolate professionally,I ate a lot.But now I dont eat so much.
6 Many people dont know how to appreciate the taste of chocolate.As a taster,I want to help others do what I do.To retrain your taste buds to enjoy better quality chocolate,try simple kinds that arent filled with ingredients like nuts.Look at food with curiosity and love.
Notice its color,smell and taste.Then youll know good quality.
