It is men’s nature to live together in families and tribes(部落), and cities and nations, and therefore men have learned to prize those qualities in each other which make social life the happiest and best.
Of these qualities one of the most important is sympathy-fellow-feeling. If a man had no fellow-feeling, we should call him “inhuman”; he would be no true man. We think so much of this quality that we call a kind man “human”-that is, man-like in his conduct, first to other men, and afterwards to all living things.
If you are cruel to animals, you are not likely to be kind or thoughtfull to men; and if you are thoughtful towards men, you are not likely to be cruel and thoughtful towards animals. This is why the wise man of old wrote, “The merciful man is merciful to his beast.”
What a pleasure it is also to be loved by our pets or domestic animals; and to feel that we are caring for them and are deserving of their love; or to watch the ways of wild creatures, and gradually to make friends with them!
Treating animals kindly does not mean that we must never inflict any pain on them. We ourselves are trained by pains as well as by pleasures; so too, punishment is sometimes needed to train our dogs and horses to obey us. We endure pains at the hands of the surgeon, to cure some wound or to heal some disease; so too, animals must submit to being doctored.
We send out our bravest men to face wounds, sickness and death, for the good of the nation; so too, we let our horses share the risk of battle. For similar reasons, we cannot hesitate to destroy dangerous creatures like wolves and show senseless ferocity(残忍). It is no excuse to say that these animals deserve to be treated cruelly on account of their own cruelty. They are not really cruel, for they tear and kill not from love of unkindness, but because they must do so in order to live.
小题1:One of the most important qualities of men is fellow-feeling because      .
A.you are likely to be cruel and thoughtful without it
B.a man would be inhuman without it
C.men can’t bear any pain on themselves and animals
D.only sympathy makes a man man-like in his conduct
小题2:The author would probably agree with the following EXCEPT that   .
A.we must never force any pain on animals
B.some people have to kill some animals in order to live
C.it is human for a doctor to cut off some part from the animals
D.wise men are not only good to men but also to animals
小题3:What do you think is the title of the passage?
A.Loving your pet.B.Fellow-feeling.
C.Making friends with animals.D.Kindness to animals.
小题4:Which of the following is inhuman according to the writer?
A.To treat animals cruelly because they are cruel.
B.To train animals.
C.To destroy some of the dangerous animals.
D.To make animals submit to being doctored.
小题5:The underlined word “inflict” here means      .
A.make sb/sth sufferB.forbid
C.punishD.avoid

What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange or red? If you do, you must be an optimist (乐观者), a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer grays (灰色) and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy and you would rather follow than lead. If you love green, you are strong-minded and determined (意志坚定的). You wish to succeed and want other people to see you are successful. At least this is what psychologists (心理学家) tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference (爱好), and the effect (影响) that colors have on human beings. They tell us that we don’t choose our favorite color as we grow up. If you happen to love brown, you did so as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.
   A yellow room makes us feel more cheerful (开心的) and more comfortable (舒服的) than a dark green one, and a red dress rings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing (压抑). Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active. It is a fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or dark gray.
   Remember, then, that if you feel low, you can always brighten your day or your life with a new shirt or a few colorful things. Remember also that you will know your friends and your enemies better when you find out what colors they like and dislike. And don’t forget that anyone can guess a lot about your character when you choose a piece of handkerchief.

A.one can choose his color preference  
B.one is born with his color preference

A.colors do have effect on our moods(情绪)
B.colors may have effect on our work and study

小题3: The main idea of this passage is ________.
A.one’s color preference shows one’s character
B.you can brighten your life with wonderful colors
C.psychologists have been studying the meaning of color preference
D.one’s color preference has something to do with his character and colors have effects on human beings

 Not everyone in the world requires the same amount of living space. The amount of space a person needs around him is a cultural (文化的) difference, not an economic one. Knowing your own psychological (心理的) space needs is important because they strongly affect your choices, including, for example, the number of bedrooms in the home. If you were brought up in a two-child family and both you and your sister or brother had your own bedrooms, the chances are if you have two children or more, that you also will offer separate bedrooms for them. In America, for example, they train people to want to have their own rooms by giving them their own rooms when they are babies. This is very unusual in the world. In many other countries, the baby sleeps in the same bed with his parents or in bed near them.
   The space in the home also shows a lot about psychological space needs. Some families gather closer to each other and the size of their house has nothing to do with it. Others have separate little corners where family members go to be alone.
   Although it is true that psychological space needs are not decided by economic reasons, they sometimes have to be changed a little because of economic pressure(压力). It is almost impossible, however, to completely change your psychological space needs.

D.Nobody needs a required amount of living space
小题2:Some families gather closer to each other at home than others because ______.
A.they have limited living space   
B.they are brought up in a large family
C.it satisfies(满足) their psychological space needs
D.the children in the family sleep in the same bed with their parents
小题3:Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A.Americans are trained to live in the large rooms at birth.
B.Economic situation decides one’s amount of space needs.
C.People in different countries demand(need) different psychological space.
D.Knowing your psychological space needs is important, as it has effect on your future.
