Science cant explain the power of pets, but many studies have shown that the company of pets can help lower blood pressure (血压) and raise chances of recovering from a heart attack, reduce loneliness and spread all-round good cheer.Any owner will tell you how much joy a pet brings. For some, an animal provides more comfort than a husband/wife. A 2002 study by Karen Allen of the State University of New York measured stress (紧张) levels and blood pressure in people - half of them pet owners while they performed 5 minutes of mental arithmetic (算术) or held a hand in ice water. Subjects completed the tasks alone, with a husband/wife, a close friend or with a pet. People with pets did it best. Those tested with their animal friends had smaller change in blood pressure and returned most quickly to baseline heart rates. With pets in the room, people also made fewer math mistakes than when doing in front of other companions. It seems people feel more relaxed (放松)around pets, says Allen, who thinks it may be because pets dont judge.A study reported last fall suggests that having a pet dog not only raises your spirits but may also have an effect on your eating habits. Researchers at Northwestern Memorial Hospital spent a year studying 36 fat people and their equally fat dogs on diet-and-exercise programs; a separate group of 56 people without pets were put on a diet program. On average, people lost about I1 pounds, or 5% of their body weight. Their dogs did even better, losing an average of 12 pounds, more than 15% of their body weight. Dog owners didnt lose any more weight than those without dogs but, say researchers, got more exercise overall-mostly with their dogs - and found it worth doing.12. What does the text mainly discuss?A. What pets bring to their owners.B. How pets help people calm down.C. Peoples opinions of keeping pets.D. Pets value in medical research.13. We learn from the text that a person with heart disease has a better chance of getting well ifA. he has a pet companionB. he has less stress of workC. he often does mental arithmeticD. he is taken care of by his family14. According to Allen, why did the people do better with pets around when facing stressful tasks?A. They have lower blood pressure.B. They become more patient.C. They are less nervous.D. They are in higher spirits.15. The research mentioned in the last paragraph reports thatA. people with dogs did more exerciseB. dogs lost the same weight as people didC. dogs liked exercise much more than people didD. people without dogs found the program unhelpful参考答案：12. A 13. A 14. C 15. A试题分析: 文章是关于养宠物给宠物主人带来的影响，宠物可以帮助降低血压，提高从心脏病中恢复的机会，降低血压和提高快乐。12. D主旨大意题。根据文章第一段 the company of pets can help lower blood pressure (血压) and raise chances of recovering from a heart attack, reduce loneliness and spread all-round good cheer以及全文可知文章主要讲解了动物给人带来的有利影响，故选择D。13. A 推理判题。根据第一段raise chances of recovering from a heart attack，reduce loneliness and spread all-round good cheer可知有宠物陪伴可以让心脏病的人情况变得更好，故选A。14. C细节理解题。根据第二段It seems people feel more relaxed(放松)around pets。可知人们为什么表现好，是因为他们更不紧张。故选C。15. A细节理解题。根据最后一段Dog owners didnt lose any more weight than those without dogs but, say researchers, got more exercise overall-mostly with their dogs - and found it worth doing.那些有狗的人没有比没有狗的人减掉更多体重，但是他们会得到更多的锻炼，由此判断A正确，故选A。22. Last year, Claire Noble-Randall woke up at 5:30 am every morning. She had to catch two buses to arrive in time for first-period chemistry at Ingraham High School in Seattle, US.Ingraham starts at 8 am, but Noble-Randall often didnt get to sleep until after midnight. “It was really hard not to fall asleep in class,” she said.Her mom solved the problem this year when she discovered that other parents had hired a private city tour bus to take their children to the school.“Now, she leaves the house at a much more reasonable time 7:10 in the morning. to catch the little tour bus at 7:23 am,” said her mother, Noelle Noble.That may be one way to help students get more sleep. But more than 3,300 people have signed an online petition (请愿) looking for a better solution from the Seattle school district. Those who have signed the petition want all high schools and middle schools to start no earlier than 8:30 am. Most of Seattles high schools and middle schools start at 8 am or earlier.Later start times for teenagers is an idea that some parents around the nation, have wanted for years. Theyve provided plenty of scientific evidence that teenagers tend to be night owls and delayed start times improve their health, mood, attention, and, in some cases, learning.But attempts to delay start times for teenagers havent worked. Coaches dont want late dismissals (放学) cutting into sports practices; community groups dont want to wait longer for gyms and fields and before- and after-school programs don t want to change their schedules.This time, however, theyve got Seattle School Board. President Sharon Peaslee on their side. She herself is the mother of two high school students. Peaslee hopes other board members will pass her plan calling on the district to find a way to make the changes.8. How did Noble-Randal solve her problem of early classes?A. She quit first-period classes.B. She found a faster way to the school.C. She took a private city tour bus to the school.D. Her family moved to a house near the school.9. People who signed the online petition want schools to .A. provide a school bus serviceB. delay school start timesC. improve the quality of lessonsD. stop students from falling asleep in class10. Why did parents attempts to change school start times fail?A. Not enough people signed the petition.B. No scientific evidence could support their idea.C. It would influence the schools schedules.D. It would influence many out-of-school activities.11. What can we infer from the article?A. More parents will hire a private bus for their children.B. Seattle schools plan to change their schedules next year.C. There will be less after-school activities and programs.D. There is now a higher chance of delaying school start times.参考答案：8. C 9. B 10. D 11. D本文属于社会教育类。文章主要叙述了西雅图一高中学校要求推迟学生到校上学时间。他们提供了大量的科学证据，证明青少年往往是夜猫子，而延迟的上学时间会提高他们的健康、情绪、注意力，有时甚至会提高他们的学习能力。他们的请愿虽然没有成功，但得到了更多人的帮助。总统皮斯利希望董事其他会成员将通过计划呼吁该区找到一个方法来做出调整8. C推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Her mom solved the problem this year when she discovered that other parents had hired a private city tour bus to take their children to the school.” 她的母亲今年解决了这个问题，她发现其他父母雇了一辆私人城市旅游车带他们的孩子去学校。由此可知Noble-Randal也是雇了一辆私人城市旅游车去上学的。故C项正确。9. B10. D推理判断题。根据第七段可知，推迟青少年上课时间的尝试没有奏效。这是因为教练不想打断体育运动的惯例；社会团体不想在健身房等太长时间、不想改变他们课外活动的日程安排。由此可推断出推迟上课时间影响了许多的课外活动，故D项正确。11. D 推理判断题。根据最后两段可知，一些学生及家长想推迟学生的上学时间没有成功后，他们继续获得其他的支持，皮斯利总统也支持他们，他希望其他董事会成员将通过计划呼吁该区找到一个方法来做出调整。由此可知，推迟上学时间还是有可能的。分析选项可知D项符合题意，故选D。
