Passage Two
The lion may be the most famous of all the predators of Africa, but one of the most fascinating is the wild dog. Wild dogs are fairly small, averaging seventy pounds, with round, fanlike ears that look too big for their heads. They have shaggy brown coats with scattered patches of white. One of these animals by itself looks harmless or even comical. But when they band together, in packs of up to forty, the wild dogs become dangerous predators that tirelessly run down and kill animals that are many times their own size.
Wild dogs have to be good hunters in order to feed their large families; a single female can have as many as sixteen pups at a time. But usually only one female in a pack breeds at a time, and all the pack members help to care for the young. At first, the pups feed on their mother's milk. Then the other dogs begin to bring back meat from the kill, carrying it in their stomachs and throwing it up when the pups come running to them to beg for food. Finally, the young dogs begin to go along on hunts. At this time one of the most striking differences between wild dogs and lions can be seen. When a pride of lions makes a kill, the adult males always eat their fill first. But the wild dogs let the pups feed first, even when they are still too young to really help in making the kill.
36. A good title for this passage would be ______.
A. Africa's Wild Dogs
B. Killers of the Plains
C. Predators of Africa
D. The Greedy Lion
正确答案：A文章用两个段落讲了野狗的相貌及习性。所以题目应为“野狗”。

问答题Practice 4 If ambition is to be well regarded, the rewards of ambition—wealth, distinction, control over one’s destiny—must be deemed worthy of the sacrifices made on ambition’s behalf. If the tradition of ambition is to have vitality, it must be widely shared, and it especially must be highly regarded by people who are themselves admired, the educated not least among them. In an odd way, however, it is the educated who have claimed to have given up on ambition as an ideal. What is odd is that they have perhaps most benefited from ambition, if not always their own then that of their parents and grandparents.正确答案：
【参考译文】
雄心壮志若能被正确看待,那么,它所带来的回报——财富、荣誉、对命运的主宰——一定会被认为是值得为之做出牺牲的。雄心壮志的传统若是激发活力,那么,人们就应当广泛地拥有这种传统,尤其是那些自身受人羡慕之士更应给予其高度重视。当然,受过良好教育的人也同样包括在内。然而,正是那些受过良好教育的人却奇怪地声称,他们已经放弃把雄心壮志当作理想。奇怪是,他们已从雄心壮志中获益最多——如果不总是自己的雄心壮志,就是他们父母的和祖父母的。解析： 暂无解析 -

第18题：
Text 2 Should we be thinking of Facebook as a news site?Is that how Facebook thinks of itself?No,not primarily,Facebook now says.In a document posted on Wednesday,the company explained,for the first time,the"values"that govem its news feed,the scrolling list of posts that Facebook presents to its l.65 billion users every time they log on.Though it is couched in the anodyne language of a corporate news release,the document's message should come as a shock to everyone in the media business.According to these values,Facebook has a single overriding purpose,and it isn't news.Facebook is mainly for telling you what's up with your friends and family.Adam Mosseri,the Facebook manager in charge of the news feed,said in a recent interview that informing and entertaining users was also part of the company's mission.But he made clear that news and entertainment were secondary pursuits."We think more,spend more time and work on more projects that try to help people express themselves with their friends or learn about their friends or have conversations with their friends,"he said.As if to underscore the point,the company is making a tweak to its news feed ranking system to increase the prominence ofcoiitent from your friends and family over posts by news companies and other organizations.It is also waming news companies that their traffic might decline as a result of the change.These moves highlight a truth that tends to get lost in commentary about the social network's influence over the news:At Facebook,infonrung users about the world will always take a back seat to cute pictures of babies..Because Facebook does not think ofitself primarily as a news company,it seems to want us to stop expecting it to act like one.Whether we should,though,is a more complicated matter.The company has long been hounded by journalists and activists over its power to shape the news through its algorithms,or the code that determines which stories you see,in the news feed.The question of how to think about Facebook's role in the news-and whether we should demand the same standards of accuracy,objectivity,transparency and fairness that we expect from traditional outlets-may be the primary puzzle ofour new media age.According to Facebook,the values outlined in the document have been the informal governing philosophy of its news feed since it was started a decade ago,and Mr.Zuckerberg and Chris Cox,Facebook's chiefproduct officer,were deeply involved in drafiing the new document.29.Mr.Zuckerberg and Chris Cox believe that.A.serious news is the most valuable to be posted to their users.
B.the standards ofnews they post are accurate and objective.
C.they have the conventional governing policy ofits news.
D.the intefaction with friends is the most important news.答案：D解析：推理判断题。本题询问的是扎克伯格先生和克里斯·考克斯先生的观点，文中最后一段提到两人参与了的文件的发表，证明文件中表达的内容是他们认同的观点，即脸书更注重与朋友及家人的互动，故选D项。【干扰排除】A项“严肃的新闻对他们的用户是最有价值的”和B项“他们所发表的新闻的标准是准确和客观的”，文中第八段提到，我们是否应该要求脸书像传统新闻媒体那样准确、客观、透明和公正，因为它的核心价值不在于此，所以A项和B项不属于扎克伯格先生和克里斯·考克斯先生的观点；C项“他们有传统的新闻管理政策”，文中最后一段提到在10年前，脸书就有“非正式的新闻管理理念”，所以C项错误。 -

单选题The writer leads us to conclude that if he had been encouraged to speak Spanish in school, he might.Ahave known what to do before the game.
Bhave offered tacos to the Churchill team.
Cnot have felt so inferior to the whites.
Dhave played better basketball with his friends.
正确答案： A解析：
作者在第四段提到自己上小学的时候不被允许说西班牙语，到后来上高中的时候虽被允许了，但他们一说西班牙语就感到羞耻，觉得自己的语言和文化很低下。可以推断出作者认为要是自己上学的时候被允许说西班牙语，他自己就不会感到那么低人一等了。 -
第23题：
单选题Adam’s dog, a golden retriever named Hans, can respond to over 150 different commands. Adam cites this fact as evidence for his claim that Hans can understand the English language. Which of the following, if true, casts the most doubt on Adam’s claim that Hans can understand the English language?AEach of the 150 commands to which Hans responds involves both a spoken word in English and a distinctive hand sign.
BHans does not respond to the same commands when spoken to him by Adam’s French and Italian friends in their own languages.
CScientists have demonstrated conclusively that canine vocal chords are incapable of replicating many of the sounds used in the English language.
DAnimal behaviorists have demonstrated that even very young dogs surpass both wolves and chimpanzees—animals that are thought to be more intelligent than dogs—in the ability to understand human nonverbal communication.
EThe golden retriever is widely considered to be less intelligent than the border collie, and no border collie has ever been shown to truly understand the English language.
正确答案： D解析：
A项揭示Hans可以理解150种不同的指令是因为狗可能对不同的手势有反应，这为狗的行为提供了另一种不同的解释，所以A项是正确的。
