In the background, a young girl reads a rejection (回绝) letter from a ballet school. You have the wrong body for ballet, it says, and at thirteen, you are too old. This was one of the most popular advertisements (广告) of and it describes American ballet Theatres principal (重要旳) dancer Misty Copeland.This was not a real letter. But Copeland says it is very similar to letters from her childhood. While many dancers start at the age of three. Copeland only began to study ballet in 1995 as a thirteen-year-old. People often told her that she was too old, or that she didnt have the perfect body type (She is only 157 cm tall).

But are they as smart as humans, or are they more like cats and dogs? Dolphins use their brains quite differently from the way humans do. But scientists say dolphins and humans are very similar in some ways. How?Like humans, every dolphin has its own name. The name is a special whistle (哨声). Each dolphin chooses a specific (特有旳) whistle for itself, usually by its first birthday Dolphins are like people in other ways, too. They talk to each other about a lot of things-such as their age, their feelings, and finding food. They also use a system of sounds and body language to communicate. Understanding dolphin conversation is not easy for humans. No one speaks dolphin yet, but some scientists are trying to learn.Dolphins are also social animals. They live in groups called pods, and they often join others from different pods to play games and have fun-just like people. Scientists believe playing together is something only intelligent animals do.Dolphins and humans are similar in another way: both species make plans for getting things they want. In the seas of southern Brazil, for example, dolphins use an intelligent plan to get food. When there are fish near a boat, dolphins signal (发信号) to the fishermen to put their nets in the water. Using this method, the men can catch a lot of fish. Why do dolphins help the men? There is an advantage for them they get to eat some of the fish that escape (逃脱) from the net.68.

Dolphins probably help fishermen by using their body language.C Humans join dolphins groups to get things we want.D Dolphins can talk to humans about their age and their feelings.71. Whats the main idea of the passage?A. Dolphins can communicate with each other at birth.B. Dolphins are social animals because they play together.C. Dolphins are smart and are like humans in some ways.D. Dolphins help humans do many things like catching fish.D Every year on 15th October, over 200 million people around the world take part in Global Handwashing Day. But why do we have a day for something we do all the time? Well, research shows that not enough people often wash their hands with soap. Experts believe that this leads to the deaths of millions of people every year.Sidibe, a public health expert says soap is the most beautiful invention in public health. Washing your hands with soap can have a huge impact on reducing (减少) the spread of diseases. Handwashing with soap prevents babies from getting ill and keeps children healthy and in school.However, washing hands with soap does not happen as often as you might think. This is partly because there arent enough resources (资源) in poorer countries, but its also because for many people, handwashing is simply not part of their everyday life. Its not easy to get people to change habits they learned in early childhood - but this is what Global Handwashing Day wants to do.In , the Indian cricket team joined around 100 million Indian schoolchildren in washing their hands to promote (增进) the first ever Global Handwashing Day. Every year since then, many different events have been held around the world. In . Global Handwashing Day was used in the fight against Ebola, a very serious disease, with events held in affected (受感染旳) African countries.Today, local and national leaders continue to use the day to spread the message about the importance of clean hands. The hope is that handwashing becomes a necessary part of peoples lives and improves the health of millions around the world.72. Who started Global Handwashing Day?A. Public health experts.B. The Indians.C. African schoolchildren.D. Government leaders.73. What does the underlined word impact mean?A. Danger.B. Influence.C. Background.D. Problem.74. Whats the main idea of the last paragraph?A. Washing hands with soap is good for public health.B. Washing hands with soap doesnt become part of peoples lives.C. People are holding many different events to fight against diseases.D. People all over the world are encouraged to wash hands with soap.75. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Learning to Use Soap.B. Fighting Against Diseases.C. Living a Healthy Life.D. Changing Your Habits.B)请先阅读下面短文,掌握其大意然后根据短文内容从下面方框内旳七个选项中选择五个还原到文中,使短文意思通顺、构造完整,并在答题卡上将其序号涂黑。(每题2分)Is there a connection between music and language? According to recent studies, the answer is yes: 76 Here, we look at two examplesA recent study by researcher Kraus shows that playing a musical instrument can improve a persons hearing ability. 77 The people in the first group were musicians, while those in the second group had no musical training. The musicians were able to hear the talking person more clearly.78 Think about violinists in an orchestra (管弦乐团). When the violinists play with the group, they hear their own instrument and many others, too. But the violinists must listen closely to what they are playing, and pay no attention to the other sounds. In this way, musicians are able to focus on certain sounds, even in a room with lots of noise.Schlaug, a doctor at Harvard Medical School, works with stroke (中风) patients. Because of their illness, these people cannot say their names, addresses, or other information normally. However, they can still sing. 79 Why does this work? Schlaug isnt sure. Music seems to make different parts of the brain work, including the damaged (损坏旳) parts. This might help patients to use that part of the brain again.Music improves concentration (注意力), memory, listening skills, and our overall language abilities. 80 Playing an instrument or singing can help us do better in school and keep our brain sharp (敏锐旳) as we get older. Music is not only enjoyable, its also good for us in many other ways.A. It can even help sick people get better.B Music helps people solve some hearing problems.C. Music improves certain language abilities in the brain.D. The violinists develop their memories by playing the violin.E Musicians hear better because they learn to pay attention to certain sounds.G. In his study two groups of people listened to a person talking in a noisy room.五、补全对话(5分)请阅读下面对话,根据对话内容从方框中选择恰当旳句子填入空白处,使对话通顺、合理，意思完整,并在答题卡上将其序号涂黑。(每空一句,每题1分)(Sandra and Luke plan their trip to Cape Town.
