25、ipped over Sheba“Hey,Sheba, ”she said, “Ive got no time for you now,hut Ill take you out as soon as I getback from tennis club ”Then she noticed Sheba seemed to be coughing or choking Obviously,she could hardly breatheImmediatelyJoanne realized she would have to take her to the vet(兽医)When she got t
26、 here,the vet was just about to close for the day Seeing the state of Sheba,DrSterne brought her quickly into his office“Listen, doctor,Im really in a rush to get to a meeting can I leave her with you,and go and get changed? Ill be back in ten minutes to pick her up, and then Ill take her on to the
27、meeting with me Is that OK?”“Sure ”said the doctorJoanne made the quick trip back to her house in a couple of minutesAs she was once moreentering the hallway,the phone by the door began to ring“This is DrSterne ” said an anxious voice “I want you to get out of that house immediately, ”said the docto
28、rs voice “Im coming round fight away,and the police will be there any time nowWait outside!”At that moment,a police car screeched to a stop outside the houseTwo policemen got out and ran into the houseJoanne was by now completely confused and very frightenedThen the doctor arrived“Wheres Sheba? Is s
29、he OK?”shouted Joanne“Shes fine,Joanne I took out the thing which was choking her,and shes OK now ”Just then,the two policemen reappeared from the house,half-carrying a whitefaced man,who could hardly walk There was blood all over him“My God, ”said Joanne, “how did he get in there? And how did you k
30、now he was there?”“I think he must be a burglar ”said the doctor “I knew he was there because when I finally removed what was stuck in Shebas throat:it turned out to be three human fingers”60.

From the passage,we can infer that ASheba fought against the burglar Bthe police fo
32、und the burglar had broken inCJoanne had planned to take her dog to the meetingDthe doctor performed a difficult operation on the dog63. In this passage,the writer intends to tell us that the dog is Aclever Bfriendly Cfrightening DdevotedCApparently,we are safe neither at home nor in the business of
33、ficeWe use water in both places,but the research shows that chemicals added to our local water supply to kill harmful bacteria can have unwanted side effectsThese chemicals can cause potential harm through drinking and in seemingly harmless activities as cleaning ones houseThey are released(set free
34、)from water by daily actions like water running out of tap,spraying from garden pipes,or splashing in dishwashers and washing machinesAs the water is movingthese chemicals are released into the air and then breathed in. Once inside our bodies, they start to affect our health.Does this mean we should
35、 stop bathing? No, say the scientists, but we should put all pollution into perspective. Activities at home such as the burning of coal, cooking oil, or even candles release carbon monoxide and particulates such as cigarette ashes which have been proven as harmful to health as working or living near
36、 heavy traffic. New tugs, bedding, and even clothing give off that“new smell, ”which is a sure sign of chemicals. In the office, newly applied paint, newly purchased telephones and other telecommunications equipment, and computers release polluting chemicals, too. As offices and homes often have ina
37、dequate ventilation (通风), these chemicals can build up to become health problems. Their poisonous effects are only now being slowly recognized.These facts suggest that, at a minimum, proper airing of newly purchased goods with an obvious chemical smell is a wise warning. Home and office windows shou
38、ld be opened during good weather. Even ones car needs to be ventilated as well while in the garage.We need further research to understand better other potential health dangers, too. For example, the effects of overcrowding of schools (carbon dioxide build-up ), the factory work environment ( an endl
39、ess list of potentially dangerous substances ), and even home heating and cooling (the air conditioner may be our enemies, not our friends) have only recently started to come to light. Until we understand the effects of our new technological environment better, we can only hope that“there is no plac
40、e like home.”64. What is the main idea of the first paragraph?AThe air we breathe in is harmful.BThe water in everyday use is unsafe.CChemicals are added to the drinking water.DChemicals are released in the running water.65. In Paragraph 2, the underlined sentence means that .Abathing should be done
41、 with cautionBhomes and offices should be aired oftenCany pollution should be taken into considerationDwe should prevent any pollution from doing harm to us66. What is the purpose of the passage?ATo call on us to guard our water.BTo show us that no place is like home.CTo make us aware of the polluti
42、on around us.DTo argue that neither homes nor offices are safe.DHabits are a funny thing. We reach for them mindlessly, setting our brains on auto-pilot and relaxing into the unconscious comfort of familiar routine.“Not choice, but habit rules the unreflecting creatures ” William Wordsworth said in
43、the 19th century. In the ever-changing 21st century, even the word“habit”carries a negative meaning.So it seems contradictory to talk about habits in the same context as innovation (创新). But brain researchers have discovered that when we consciously develop new habits, we create parallel paths, and
44、even entirely new brain cells, that can jump our trains of thought onto new, innovative tracks.Rather than dismissing ourselves as unchangeable creatures of habit, we can instead direct our own change by consciously developing new habits. In fact, the more new things we try, the more creative we bec
45、ome.But dont bother trying to kill off old habits; once those ruts of procedure are worn into the brain, theyre there to stay. Instead, the new habits we deliberately press into ourselves create parallel pathways that can bypass those old roads.“The first thing needed for innovation is attraction to
46、 wonder,”says Dawna Markova, author of The Open Mind.“But we are taught instead todecide, just as our president calls himselfthe Decider ”She adds, however, that“to decide is to kill off all possibilities but one. A good innovational thinker is always exploring the many other possibilities.”“All of
47、us work through problems in ways of which were unaware,”she says. Researchers in the late 1960s discovered that humans are born with the ability to approach challenges in four primary ways: analytically, procedurally, collaboratively (合作地 ) and innovatively. At the end of adolescence, however, the brain shuts down hal
