And when they met again, Hinga had been homeless for over a decade. Sensing Wanjas shock, Hinga convinced her that hed only wanted to greet her. Anyway, she gave him her mobile number before leaving him. Over the next days, Hinga borrowed phones and would regularly call his childhood friend, often just to hear her voice.

Dog bites are harmful, and some require hospitalization or even operation. Any kind of dog might bite. And that a dog is small or seems friendly doesnt mean it cant do some damage. Even the nicest, most well trained family dog may bite if its scared, angry, or hungry.To reduce the risk of bites, teach your kids these: Always ask the owner if its OK to pet the dog; Let the dog see and sniff you before petting it; Do not run toward or away from a dog; If an unfamiliar dog comes near you, stay calm, dont look it directly in the eye, and stand still or back up slowly; If a dog tries to bite you, put anything you can between you and the dog.If your family has a dog, make sure it gets all required immunizations (防疫注射) and regular checkups in an animal hospital. Also, consider taking your dog to a dog training school to make it more social and obedient(听话的), and thus less likely to bite someone. When you take your dog out in public, always keep it on a rope so you can control it if its behavior gets out of hand. If you have kids, keep a close eye on them when theyre around the dog and never leave a young child alone with your pet. If your child is bitten by a dog, get in touch with your doctor, particularly if the dog is not yours. Some dog bites need to be treated in an emergency department.28. According to the first paragraph, dog bites .A. are done by fierce dogs B. mainly happen to teenagersC. happen frequently in America D. can cause little or almost no harm29. What are kids advised to do when seeing a strange dog approaching?A. Run away quickly. B. Look at it in the eye.C. Touch its head softly. D. Walk backwards slowly.30. What should you do if you keep a dog as a pet?A. Have it examined regularly.B. Train it patiently on your own.C. Avoid walking it in public places.D. Allow your kids to play with it alone.31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Causes of Dog BitesB. How to Avoid Dog BitesC. What to Do with Dogs BitesD. Things to Know about Dog BitesDParents and educators can teach kids to change their fixed mindsets(思维) and see more potential in themselves and other people. Do you agree with this statement? If your answer is yes, heres something you might consider: Research suggests that believing in the human ability to change is linked to less depression(沮丧), better health, and greater achievement. This is the growth mindset, an idea pioneered by Stanford researcher Carol Dweck.According to this research, when we practice a growth mindset, the difficulties were facing seem more likely to be surmounted. Its important for us to realize we arent helpless, and that we can grow and adapt. Just as important as seeing ourselves as able to grow, this reduces some of the pressure we might feel, and helps us think more in terms of challenges than threats(威胁).According to studies, developing a growth mindset is of importance. For example, a simple belief in the possibility of change may have a powerful effect on our thinkingpotentially freeing us to actually see our way through anxiety and a sense of failure among peer(同龄人) conflicts. Research also indicates that believing personalities can change and lower aggression behavior. Additionally, if we believe personalities are changeable and that situations can change, we can also apply this thinking to groups.A growth mindset isnt a personal state of being; instead, its a way of thinking or a strategy we can apply in a given situation. It isnt something you simply have or you dont. However, sometimes its really challenging to access a growth mindset. Something like feeling threatened, compared or criticized can make us feel unsafe so that it can be difficult to believe in the ability for change. Fortunately, theres always something you can do to develop a growth mindset.32. According to Carol Dweck, a growth mindset is the belief that our abilities .A. are stable B. arent fixedC. are for growth D. are linked to health33. What does the underlined word surmounted in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Overcome. B. Strengthened.C. Predicted. D. Approved.34. According to studies, people with growth mindsets are more likely to .A. behave more bravely B. be strict with themselvesC. do something on their own D. get along better with others35. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. A growth mindset is difficult to develop.B. People with growth mindsets will not be criticized.C. The sense of insecurity can be a barrier to a growth mindset.D. Growth mindsets are challenging if people dont have good states.第二节：（共5个小题；每题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项多用选项。 36 You dont have to completely change the way you live.
