Nearly all behavior problems are perfectly normal dog activities that occur at the wrong time or pl
21、ace or are directed at the wrong thing. The key to preventing or treating behavior problems us learning to teach the dog to redirect its normal behavior to outlets that are acceptable in the domestic setting.One of the best things you can do for your dog and yourself is to obedience train (驯服) it. O
22、bedience training doesnt solve all behavior problems, but it is the foundation for solving just about any problem.Training opens up a line of communication between you and your dog. Effective communication is necessary to instruct your dog about what you want it to do.Training is also an easy way to
23、 establish the social rank order. When your dog obeys a simple request of “come here, sit,“ it is showing obedience and respect for you.

29、 passage.Engineering students are supposed to be examples of practicality and rationality, but when it comes to my college education I am an idealist and a fool. In highschool I wanted to be an electrical engineer and, of course, any sensible student with my aims would have chosen a college with a l
30、arge engineering department,famous reputation and lots of good labs and research equipment. But thats not what I did.I chose to study engineering at a small liberal |arts(文科) university that doesnt even offer a major in electrical engineering. Obviously, this was not a practical choice; I came here
31、for more noble reasons. I wanted a broad education that would provide me with flexibility and a value system to guide me in my career. I wanted to open my eyes and expand my vision by interacting with people who werent studying science or engineering. My parents, teachers and other adults praised me
32、 for such a sensible choice. They told me I was wise and mature beyond my 18 years, and I believed them.I headed off to college sure I was going to have an advantage over those students who went to big engineerng “factories“ where they didnt care if you had values or were flexible. I was going to be
33、 a complete engineer: technical genius and sensitive humanist(人文学者) all in one.Now Im not so sure. Somewhere along the way my noble ideals crashed into reality, as all noble ideals eventually do. After three years of struggling to balance math, physics and engineering courses with liberal arts cours
34、es, I have learned there are reasons why few engineering students try to reconcile (协调) engineering with liberal |arts courses in college.The reality that has blocked my path to become the typical successful student isthat engineering and the liberal arts simply dont mix as easily as I assumed in hi
35、gh school. Individually they shape a person in very different ways; together they threaten to confuse. The struggle to reconcile the two fields of study is difficult.26. The author chose to study engineering at a small liberal-arts university because he _.A) wanted to be an example of practicality a
36、nd rationality B) intended to be a combination of engineer and humanistC) wanted to coordinate engineering with liberal-arts courses in collegeD) intended to be a sensible student with noble ideals27.

37、n _.A) balance engineering and the liberal arts B) receive guidance in their careersC) become noble idealists D) broaden their horizons28.

38、h a value system to guide himD) to be a technical genius with a wide vision29. The authors experience shows that he was _.A) creative B) ambitious C) unrealistic D) irrational30. The word “they“ in “. together they threaten to confuse.“ (Line 3, Para. 5) refers to _.A) engineering and the liberal ar
39、ts B) reality and noble idealsC) flexibility and a value system D) practicality and rationality Passage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage. Priscilla Ouchidas “energy |efficient“ house turned out to be a horrible dream. When she and her engineer husband married a few years ag
40、o, they built a $100,000, three -bedroom home in California. Tightly sealed to prevent air leaks,the house was equipped with small double |paned(双层玻璃的) windows and several other energy |saving features. Problems began as soon as the couple moved in, however. Priscillas eyes burned. Her throat was co
41、nstantly dry. She suffered from headaches and could hardly sleep. It was as though she had suddenly developed a strange illness.Experts finally traced the cause of her illness. The leyel of of formaldehyde(甲醛) gas in her kitchen was twice the maximum allowed by federal standards for chemical workers
42、. The source of the gas? Her new kitchen cabinets and wall |to |wall carpeting.The Ouchidas are victims of indoor air pollution, which is not given sufficient attention partly because of the nations drive to save energy. The problem itself isnt new. “The indoor environment was dirty long before ener
43、gy conservation came along,“ says Moschandreas, a pollution scientist at Geomet Technologies in Maryland. “Energy conservation has tended to accentuate the situation in some cases.“The problem appears to be more troublesome in newly constructed homes rather than old ones. Back in the days when energ
44、y was cheap, home builders didnt worry much about unsealed cracks. Because of such leaks, the air in an average home was replaced by fresh outdoor air about once an hour. As a result, the pollutants generated in most households seldom built up to dangerous levels.31. It can be learned from the passa

48、doors D) Traps in Building Consruction Passage FourQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage. In 1993, New York State ordered stores to charge a deposit on beverage(饮料) containers.
