He was just able to make out the heavier masses that eventually appearedas the familiar trees that lined the road at the
19、base of the hill. The upperreaches of the sky showed lighter shades of gray.Dave got out of bed quietly and dressed quickly. He mixed a spoonful ofinstant chocolate into a glass of cold water, and his impatience forced him tofinish the drink in gulps.As he walked down toward the lake. Dave paused to
20、 reach for the fishingpole and gear box on the bench where he had left them the night before.By the time where he reached the small boat, a thick white mist(雾气)had spread over the surface of the water. He stepped into the boat, sat down,and rowed out of the weed beds that lined the edge of the shore
21、.The outer fringe(边缘)of the lake disappeared as the boat moved forwardnoiselessly. All he could see was the enveloping whiteness. He could not tellwhere the boat and the surrounding air met the surface of the lake.Dave rowed steadily ahead, relying of a mental picture of the surroundings.Then the mi
22、st began to rise, slowly It soon rested inches above the still surfaceof the lake. The heavy silence was now being broken by the fish breaking throughthe surface as they leaped out of the water for low-flying insects.The magic time had arrived. Dave raised his pole.

They have a strong need to make decisions,manage their environment, and lead rather than follow. Stephen Jackson, a Year Onestudent, “operates under the theory o
26、f whats mine is mine and whats yours ismine,” says his mother. “The other day I bought two new Star Wars light sabers(剑)。 Later, I saw Stephen with the two new ones while his brogher was using thebeat-up ones.”“Examine the extended family, and youll probably find a bossy grandparent,aunt,uncle or co
27、usinin every generation.Itt aninheritabletrait,” saysRussellBarkley, a professor at the Medical University of South Carolina. Other childrenwhomay not be particularlybossy canbradually gain dominance(支配地位) whentheysense their parents are weak, hesitant, or in disagreement with each other.Whether its
28、 inborn nature or developed character at work, too much control inthe hands at the young isnt healthy for children or the family, Fear is at theroot of a lot of bossy behavior, says family psychologist John Taylor. Children,he says in his book From Defiance to Cooperation, “have secret feelings of w
29、eakness”and “a desire to feel safe.” Its the parents role to provide that protection.When a “boss child” doesnt learn limits at home, the stage is set for a hostof troubles outside the family. The overly willful and unbending child may havetrouble obeying teachers or coaches, for example, or trouble
30、 keeping friends. Itcan be pretty lonely as the top dog if no one likes your bossy ways.“I see more and more parents giving up their power,” says Barkley, who hasstudied bossy behavior for more than 30 years. “They bend too far because they dont want to be as strict as their own parents were. But th
31、ey also feel less confidentabout their parenting skills. Their kids, in turn, feel more anxious.”43.

33、eir children46. Bossy children may probably become .A. relaxed B.skillfulC. hesitant D.lonely47. What is the passage mainly about?A. How bossy behavior can be controlled.B.

34、Researchers are placing robotic dogs(机器狗)in the homes of lonely old people todetermine whether they can improve the quality of life for humans. Alan Beck, anexpert in human-animal relationship, and Nancy Edwards, a professor of nursing, areleading the animal-assisted study concerning the influence o
35、f robotic dogs on oldpeoples depression, physical activity, and lefe satisfaction. “No one will arguethat an older person is better off being more active, challenged, or stimulated(刺激),”Edwards points out. “The problem is how we promote(使成为现实)that,especially for those without riends or help. A robot
36、ic dog could be a solution.”In the study, the robot, called AIBO, is placed for six weeks in the houses ofsome old people who live alone. Before placing AIBO in the home, researchers willcollect baseline data for six weeks. These old people will keep a diary to note theirfeelings and activity before
37、 and after AIBO. Then, the researchers will review thedata to determine if it has inspired any changes in the life of its owner.“I talk to him all the time, and he responds to my voice,” says aseventy-year-oldlady, “When Im watching TV,hellstay in myarms until he wantsdown. He has a mind of his own.
38、”The AIBOs respond to certain orders. The researchers say they have someadvantages over live dogs, especially for old people. Often the elderly are disabledand cannot care for an animal by walking it or playing with it. A robotic dog removesexercise and feeding concerns.“At the beginning, it was bel
39、ieved that no one would relate to the robotic dog,because it was metal and not furry.” Beck says. “But its amazing how quicklywe have given up that belief.”“Hopefully, down the road, these robotic pets could become a more-valuablehealth helper. They will record their masters blood pressure, oxygen l
40、evels. Orheart rhythms. ASIBOs may even one day have games that can help stimulate olderpeoples minds.”48. The purpose of Beck and Edwards study is to .A. understand human-animal relationshipB. make lonely old peoples life betterC. find the causes of old peoples lonelinessD. promote the animal-assis
41、ted research49. In the research, the old people are asked to .A. note the activities of AIBOsB. keep AIBOs at home for 12 weeksC. record their feelings and activityD. analyze the collected information50. What is the advantage of AIBO over live dogs?A. It is easier to keep at home.B. It can help the
42、disabled people.C. It responds to all the human orders.D. It can watch TV with its owner.51. The author seems to suggest that the future robotic dogs may .A. cure certain diseasesB. keep old people activeC. change peoples beliefsD. look more like real gods EAttitubdeis an internal(内在的)state thatinfl
43、uencesthe choicesof personal actionmade by the individual(个人). Some researchers consider that attitudes come fromdefferences between beliefs and ideas; others believe that attitudes come fromemotional states. Here, we focus on the effects of attitudes upon behavior, thatis, upon the choices of actio
44、n made by the individual.The kinds of actions taken by human beings are obviously influenced greatly byattitudes. Whether one listens to classical music or rock, whether one obeys thespeed limit while driving, whether one encourages ones husband or wife to expresshis or her own ideasall are influenc
45、ed by attitudes. These internal states areacquired(获得) throughout life from sitations one is faced with in the home, inthe streets, and in the school.Of course, the course of action chosen by an individual in any situation willbe largely determined by the particulars of that situation. An individual
46、 who hasa strong attitude of obeying laws may drive too fast when he is in a hurry and nopolice cars in sight. Achild who has a strong attitude of honesty may steal a pennywhen she thinks no one will notice, But the internal state which remains unchangedover a period of time, and which makes the ind
47、ividual behave regularly in a varietyof situations, is what is meant by an attitude.Attitudes are learned in a variety of ways. They can result from single incidents,as when an attitude toward snakes is acquired by an experience in childhood at thesudden wovement of a snake. They can result from the
48、 individuals experiences ofsuccess and pleasure, as when someone acquires a positive attitude toward doingcrossword puzzles by being able to complete some of them, And frequently, they arelearned by copying other peoples behavior, as when a child learns how to behavetoward foreigners by observing th
49、e actions of his parents. Regaudless of thesedifferences, there is something in common in the learning and modihcation(修正)of attitudes.52. According to the passage, attitudes .A. come from different situations in ones lifeB. are largely affected by ones behaviorC. remain unchanged in ones daily lifeD. could be chosen according to ones will53. The author uses the examples in Paragraph 3 to show .A. people often make mistakes when they are not noticedB. people with good attitudes may sometimes do bad deedsC. particulars of a situat
