If your dog looks pleased to see youit is probably because it loves the particular way you smell.The scent (气味)of a familiar human apparently lingers like perfume in the animals brainwhere it causes an instinctive emotional response, research reveals.Our scent acts on a part of the canine (犬科的) brain associated with reward and the strongest reactions are produced by humans that pets know best, say scientists in America.Gregory Bern, of Emory University in Atlanta, said, “While we might expect that dogs should be highly tuned to the smell of other dogs, it seems that the reward response is reserved for their humans. When humans smell the perfume of someone they love, they may have an immediate, emotional reaction thats not necessarily cognitive (认识的). So is it in dogs. But since dogs have a more sensitive smell than humans，their responses would likely be even more powerful than the ones we might have. In our experiment, however， the owners of the dog were not physically present. The canine brain responses were being caused by something distant in space and time. It shows that dogs brains have these mental representations of us that persist when were not there.”The experiment involved 12 dogs of various kinds by brain scans while five different scents were placed in front of them. The scent samples (样本)came from the subject (接受试险者) itself, a dog the subject had never met, a dog living in the subjects household. The familiar human scent samples were taken from someone else from the house other than the handlers during the experiment, so that none of the scent donors were physically present.The results showed all five scents gained a similar response in parts of the dogs brains involved in detecting smells. Responses were significantly stronger for the scent of familiar humans, followed by that of familiar dogs. The findings showed dogs reacted strongest to the scent of familiar humans even when they were not there. Pets trained as help or therapy dogs showed greater brain activity than the other dogs in the test.Researchers say the findings could improve the way to select animals helping wounded old soldiers or disabled people.5. Whats the main idea of the passage?A. The scent of the dogs.B. The emotions of animals influenced by the scent.C. The differences between animals and humans in scent.D. The sensitive scent.6. According to the experiment. a dog will be most interested in .A. familiar dogsB. a human the dog had never metC. a dog the dog had never metD. familiar humans7. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Animals can cure wounded old soldiers.B. Animals can help disabled people.C. The experiment is complex.D. The experiment is very valuable.8. In which column of a newspaper can we read this passage?A. Science.B. Education.C. Culture.D. Entertainment.参考答案：5. B 6. D 7. D 8.

In an industry with low margins (利润) where the traditional wisdom is led by Walmart, the key to success is lowering operating costs. A big part of those costs are in labor, so it is no surprise that the retail industry has been a leader in using more part-time workers to keep labor costs down, holding the line on wages, not training, and with few exceptions, seeing employees as a cost to be minimized. There is no doubt that these businesses fight for every dollar of margin. Unlike trend-leading hi-tech companies which spend a lot of money on employees to get them innovated, retail industry can spend very limited money on their employees.What researchers found was that companies were often staffing their stores far too low, and that many stores tended to perform better with higher staffing levels and were more profitable. Lets let that sink in for a minute. The stores were making more money (with all other things being equal) when they spent more on employees.They also found that retailers didnt do a very good job when staffing levels are just the actual demand in those stores. In fact, they set staffing levels identically across stores, even when the needs of the stores varied considerably. The average store did not appear to be understaffed, but there were enough that were understaffed and effect on overall company profitability was substantial.Interestingly, the same researchers persuaded the retail chain to run an experiment with them and slightly raise staffing levels to the amount that their analysis of historical data suggests would be ideal. Yes, labor costs obviously jumped when they did that, but so did profits. In retail, labor is a small percentage of coststhe biggest part is the cost of the products they sell. So, the net effect was an increase in profits of $7.4 million across 168 stores on an annual basis.What can we learn from this? One question worth thinking of is: How can traditional retail industry survive the increasingly severe market? Especially now with the growth of online retail, the one thing stores still have going for them is one to one customer contact with salespeople. If retailers cut that down to almost nothing, then they have effectively eliminated their competitive advantage against online stores.43. In the first paragraph, Walmart is mentioned to indicate that _.A. Walmart is suffering a low return on investmentsB. Walmart is followed by companies in controlling costsC. Walmart well balances investments and profitsD. Walmart should considerably cut costs on its employees44. According to the passage, which of the following is true about retail industry?A. It focuses on lowering costs of employees.B. It intends to over staff employees in the stores.C. It attempts to maintain high income for the employees.D. It invents a large sum of money on staff training.45. What can we learn from the researchers experiment?A. Its acceptable to have equal staffing levels across stores.B. Understaffing helps the stores to operate profitably.C. Profitability has nothing to do with staffing.D. A little over the standard staffing proved to be profitable.46. Which of the following would the author probably agree with?A. For retail industry, cutting product costs is the priority.B. Online retail industry should staff more precisely to be competitive.C. Investment on employees is potentially profitable for retail industry.D. Staffing control is an effective way for retail industry to make profits.参考答案：43. B 44. A 45. D 46. C【分析】本文为说明文。零售业往往利用降低员工的工资成本来降低运营成本，获得更大的利润。而实验证明，稍微提高了员工薪水，利润也会上升了，是有利可图的。因为在零售业中劳动力成本只占成本的一小部分，其中最大的部分是他们销售产品的成本。对劳动成本的投入对零售业来说是有可能带来利润的。【43题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段的第一句“In an industry with low margins (利润) where the traditional wisdom is led by Walmart, the key to success is lowering operating costs.”可知，在降低运营成本方面，沃尔玛处于领先地位。也就是说其它的公司就是效仿沃尔玛的。分析选项可知B项符合题意，故选B。【44题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段中的“so it is no surprise that the retail industry has been a leader in using more part-time workers to keep labor costs down, holding the line on wages, not training, and with few exceptions, seeing employees as a cost to be minimized.”及最后一句“retail industry can spend very limited money on their employees”可知，零售业的重点是降低员工成本。分析选项可知A符合题意，故选A。【45题详解】推理判断题。第四段“Interestingly, the same researchers persuaded the retail chain to run an experiment with them and slightly raise staffing levels to the amount that their analysis of historical data suggests would be ideal. Yes, labor costs obviously jumped when they did that, but so did profits”可知，在实验中零售连锁店将员工人数略微提高到他们对历史数据分析所表明的理想水平，劳动力成本明显上升，但是利润也随之上涨了，由此可知，稍微提高了劳动成本证明是有利可图的，故选D。【46题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的实验可知，在实验中零售连锁店略微提高了员工的人数时，劳动力成本明显上升，但是利润也上升了。在零售业，劳动力成本只占成本的一小部分，其中最大的部分是他们销售产品的成本。由此可知，对员工的投入对于零售业来说是有可能带来利润的。分析选项可知C项符合题意，故选C。【点睛】推理判断试题属于高层次阅读理解题。这种题型包括判断题和推理题。这两类题常常相互依存，推理是为了得出正确的判断，正确的判断又依赖于合乎逻辑的推理。如第3小题属于推理判断题。第四段“Interestingly, the same researchers persuaded the retail chain to run an experiment with them and slightly raise staffing levels to the amount that their analysis of historical data suggests would be ideal. Yes, labor costs obviously jumped when they did that, but so did profits”可知，在实验中零售连锁店略微提高了员工的薪水时，劳动力成本明显上升，但是利润也上升了，由此可知，稍微提高了员工薪水证明是有利可图的，故选D。推理题要求在理解原文表面文字信息的基础上，作出一定判断和推论，从而得到文章的隐含意义和深层意义。推理题所涉及的内容可能是文中某一句话，也可是某几句话，但做题的指导思想都是以文字信息为依据，既不能做出在原文中找不到文字根据的推理，也不能根据表面文字信息做多步推理。也就是说，要做到判断有据, 推论有理, 忠实原文。切忌用自己的
