What could be cuter than your puppy giving his doggy friend a kiss on the nose? Nothing，really．But is your dog actually planting a kiss on his friend? Yes，but that’s only one of the reasons your dog may lick another dog’s nose．Here are some other reasons why your dog may lick another dog’s nose．
During an introduction，a shy and lower-ranking dog will lower his head，avoid direct eye contact and gently extend his tongue to lick the nose of a more confident and high-ranking dog．The first dog licks the nose of the second dog to simply make it know that：he comes in peace．
Dogs who are already friends will also trade kisses．Two strongly bonded dog pals will lick and clean each other．They give each other “dog kisses” showing friendship．
Puppies also “kiss” their mothers，but it"s not a gesture of love．When puppies stop suckling(吸吮)their mothers’ tits for milk and start to eat semisolid(半固体)food instead；they lick their mothers’ mouths and noses in the hope of getting the mother to regurgitate(反哺) some semi-digested food．
So how to help your bashful dog make friends with other dogs? You can carefully select confident-but-friendly and good-tempered dogs to play with your shy dog，to help him develop his social skills．Also consider taking him to a special training class that focuses on socialization and positive training technique．
Do not disturb them when your two dogs play “kiss” briefly with each other．Sit back and enjoy this display of friendship．Then call them over and have them do a command such as “sit’’ or “shake paws”．Offer them treats as a reward for being good to each other．
If you foster(收养)a dog and have three or more resident dogs，introduce the foster dog to your brood dog one at a time and let muzzle licking between them happen naturally．Start with your least reactive or most friendly dog．Never force an in production between the dogs because this can deepen the foster dog’s submissiveness or spark a fight．
小题1:We know a shy and lower—ranking dog licks the nose of a higher-ranking dog to ．| A．ask the dog for help | B．show he is friendly | | C．show his anger | D．show his respect for him |
小题2:What can we know about two dogs who are already friends?| A．They seldom give each other kisses． | | B．They usually avoid direct eye contact． | | C．They like keeping their friendship a secret． | | D．They show their friendship by “dog kisses”． |
小题3:What does the underlined word “bashful” in Paragraphs 5 mean?| A．Shy． | B．Honest． | C．Lovely． | D．Little． |
小题4:What should you do if your two dogs play “kiss” briefly with each other?| A．Ask them to stay away from each other immediately． | | B．Ask them to shake tails． | | C．Ask them to have a fight． | | D．Give them a reward for being friends． |
小题5:The writer wrote this passage to_________．| A．tell us about a study he did recently | | B．explain why a dog kisses other dogs | | C．tell us how to raise dogs | | D．help us to make friends with dogs. |

Some people can stay up all night and still get work done the next day.I"m not one of them.After a night without enough sleep, I feel badtempered.I have trouble remembering things.And all I want to do is to crawl into bed and sleep.
How do you feel after you"ve stayed up late to finish schoolwork? Or the day after an overnight party? Scientists now say that your answers to these questions may depend on your genes.
New research suggests that a gene called “period 3” affects how well you function without sleep.The “period 3” gene comes in two forms：short and long.Everyone has two copies of the gene.So, you may have two longs, two shorts, or one of each.Your particular combination depends on what your parents passed on to you.
Scientists from the University of Surrey in England studied 24 people who had either two short or two long copies of “period 3”．Study participants had to stay awake 40 hours straight.Then，they took tests that measured how quickly they pushed a button when numbers flashed on screen and how well they could remember lists of numbers.
Results showed that the people with the short form of “period 3” performed much better on these tests than the people with the long form did.In both groups，people performed worst in the early morning.
After the first round of experiments，participants were finally allowed to sleep.People in the group that performed well on the tests (those with the short form of “period 3”) took about 18 minutes to nod off.
People with the long “period 3” gene, by contrast, fell asleep in just 8 minutes.They also spent more time on deep sleep.That suggests that people with the long form of the gene need more and deeper sleep to keep their brains working in top form.
I think I must have the long form of“period 3”．What about you?
小题1:The purpose of this passage might be________.| A．to tell us the importance of plenty of sleep | | B．to tell the result of a research on sleepy gene | | C．to inform the harm of lacking sleep | | D．to announce the sleeping rules of humans |
小题2:Which of the following decides how well you perform without sleep? | A．One short form. | | B．One long copy. | | C．One short and two long copies. | | D．Period 3. |
小题3:What kind of people need less sleep according to the research?| A．Those with two long copies of the gene. | | B．Those with two short copies of the gene. | | C．Those with one short and one long copy of the gene. | | D．Those with three short copies of the gene. |
小题4:If one lacks enough sleep，one should avoid doing important or dangerous things ________.| A．at dawn | B．at night | | C．in the afternoon | D．at noon |

Millions of kids in the United States attend some kind of camp each summer. Some go to sleep-away camp for weeks, while others attend day camp in their hometowns. There is one thing all those camps have in common, though. More than nine out of 10 kids said camp helped them make new friends and feel better about themselves.
__________________
What else do kids get out of camp? Plenty!
Kids who want to be stars on the football field or basketball court have their choice of a variety of summer camps. Some, such as the Let Me Play sessions offered by Nike, are free and provide a few hours of instruction by professional athletes. Other summer sports camp opportunities are offered by professional teams or university athletic departments. Players and coaches usually lead those camps, teaching basic skills as well as teamwork and good sports behavior.
Open up to fun
It’s easy to be yourself if you have something in common with your fellow campers, even when that something is a disease.
A journal entry by one camper describes the camp’s high ropes course as a symbol of everyone there and the challenges they face. “Climbing it and going through that struggle to get up and push yourself is like getting through the sickness we all were faced with at some point,” she writes. There is another reward that comes once climbers reach the top of the ropes course and hear the words “good job” from their fellow campers. It is, “in a way, coming close to being cured. Even if we aren’t, it felt like it,” the camper says.
Healthy benefits
There are also health and wellness camps for kids who don’t have any illnesses. For Erin H. of Oklahoma, the first thoughts she had about going to a weight-loss camp were that it would be embarrassing and a waste of time. But as soon as she arrived at Wellspring Adventure Camp, she knew it would be awesome. “I had the most fun ever!” says Erin, who liked Wellspring so much. She stayed for eight weeks instead of the four weeks she’d originally agreed to. “This camp has helped improve my self-respect 100 percent, and I’m no longer self-conscious.”
小题1:The first paragraph serves as _________.| A．conclusion | B．definition (下定义) | | C．background | D．comment (评论) |
小题2:What is suitable phrase for the blank in the passage?| A．Setting a goal | B．Developing an ability | | C．Killing time | D．Forming a habit |

小题4:From the last paragraph, we know that Erin___________.| A．gained a lot from the weight-loss camp | | B．stayed in the weight-loss camp for four weeks | | C．thought taking part in the weight-loss camp was useless | | D．felt embarrassed about her appearance now |

From Japan to Indonesia, a certain kind of pop culture is very hot. But it doesn’t come from Hollywood—it’s Hallyu(韩流), the wave of Korean pop culture that has washed over Asia. It has influenced everything from music to television. And thanks to the Internet and social media, it’s now spreading worldwide.
South Korea produces all types of entertainment, the most popular being music, soap operas and films. What makes Hallyu so hot in Asia? One reason is that its products are of high quality and much cheaper than western products. Another reason is that eastern cultures are similar to each other, although there are language differences.
Korean pop music, or “K-pop”, ranks the first everywhere. Fans love the songs and the attractive stars. Companies like SM Entertainment, JYP Entertainment and YG Entertainment help many K-pop stars, such as Super Junior, Big Bang and Rain, to succeed. They are not only popular in Asia but also enjoy popularity in the West. In 2011, Big Bang’s mini-album Tonight reached the top 10 on U.S. Tunes Top Pop Albums. When SM Entertainment took their 2010 world tour to Los Angeles, only 30 percent of the 15,000 fans were Korean. Half of the audience wasn’t even Asian!
One important reason for the success of Hallyu is simply the Internet. A little more than 10 years ago, Korean soap operas, movies and music reached the outside world quite slowly. They began in Korea, and then gradually spread outward, appearing in its neighboring countries where local TV and radio companies would play them. Now they are played around the world online at the same time.
YouTube is another major way to get Korean entertainment to fans everywhere. It is an inexpensive and valid way for artists to introduce their work to a larger audience. In 2010 the YouTube channels for the top three Korean entertainment groups together had nearly 800 million views from 225 different countries.
小题1:Hallyu is very hot in Asia partly because________.| A．languages in Asia are similar to each other | | B．the culture is the most fashionable in the world | | C．South Korea’s products are the cheapest in Asia | | D．the quality of South Korea’s products is high |
小题2:The author shows the popularity of K-pop in the West_______.| A．by giving examples | | B．in order of space | | C．by listing reasons | | D．in order of time |
小题3:The last two paragraphs mainly tell us________.| A．how important the Internet is | | B．Hallyu is popular worldwide | | C．the Internet helps Hallyu spread quickly | | D．how popular and effective YouTube is |
小题4:What does the underlined word valid (in Para. 5) mean?| A．slow | B．useless | | C．successful | D．necessary |
小题5:What would be the best title for the passage?| A．K-pop Ranks the First Everywhere | | B．Hallyu Makes Waves across the World | | C．YouTube Helps Korean Cultures Spread | | D．Korean Soap Operas Are Growing in Popularity |
