I often hear a pet owner say, “I wish I knew what he wanted.” Well, the fact is that our pets talk to us all the time. We just need to learn what they are trying to say. Cats don’t make much sound. Their main communication is through body language. Actually, cats use sound mostly to communicate with human beings, and much less with other animals.
We talk to our furry friends all the time, so they have developed a “voice” to express themselves to us. It is important to mention three or four sounds. When a cat wants his owner’s attention(注意)，he will politely “meow”. A quick meow is a greeting. The well-know “purr” usually means “I’m happy”. But a cat will also purr when it is in pain. This is the cat’s way to warn others to back off, so it isn’t a good time to come near to the cat.
Most of a cat’s communication is through body language. Ears, the tail, legs, and eyes are all talking, giving us and other members of the animal world clear messages. By watching cats under diffe rent conditions, experts(专家) have learnt a lot about cat’s body language. So just as cats watch and try to understand us, we should watch them and learn about them.
( )41.The underlined words “furry friends” refers to_______.
A. cats B.cat trainers C. animal experts D.cat owners
( )42.What sound will a cat make when he feels pain?
A.A quick meow B. Purrs C. Hisses D. Growls
( )43.What may the writer probably write about in the following paragraphs?
A. The meaning of cat’s body language. B. The way the cats eat
C. The lifestyle of cats D. The way the cats communicate with other animals.
( )44.Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A .Cats don’t like making any sound.
B. When we hear a quick meow of a cat, we can’t go near to the cat.
C.A cat may growl when he meets a dog.
D. It isn’t necessary for dog owners to learn about the cat’s body language.

We all know that volunteering your time to help others is good for the word. But it might be good for your body and brain too. Here are some ways that volunteering can benefit(使……受益)the volunteer.
Benefits to your well-being(幸福)
It’s no secret that doing good things can make you feel good about yourself. According to a study by United Health Group,96% of people who volunteered said that it improved their mood(心情), and 78% of volunteers said that it lowered their stress levels.
Doing good allows people to help improve their communities, and gives them a chance to learn new skills and meet new people---all things that can add to a person’s sense of well-being, according to the study.
___▲____
The United Health Group’s study also found that 76% of people who volunteered said it made them feel healthier. And studies have shown that volunteering can be good for your health.
For example, in 2013, Carnegie Mellon University studied a group of adults over 50 and found that if they volunteered for more than 200 hours in a year, they were less likely to develop high blood pressure(高血压) than those who didn’t volunteer at all.
In most cases, the hope of health benefits is likely an added bonus(福利) rather than the reason behind volunteering. Anyway, giving your time to a reason you care about is a win-win.
( )53.Which of the following is from the United Health Group’s study?
A. 76% of volunteers thought volunteering could make them happy.
B. 78% of volunteers said volunteering raised their stress levels.

Body language is an action which has communicative meaning used in the verba l(言语的) or non-verbal communication. It can be used to express one’s intention(意图) and feelings. However, the meaning of body language is different from culture to culture.
A smile can show friendliness in one culture, embarrassment(尴尬)in another, and impatience in a third. Even silence means different things in different places. Though it feels like nothing in communication, silence can be meaningful in different cultures. In Western cultures, especially North America and the UK, silence is uncomfortable. It is often thought as a sign of inattentiven ess(分心) or disinterest. In other cultures, however, silence is not considered a bad situation. In China, silence can be used to show agreement and receptiveness. In many aboriginal(土著的) cultures, a question will be answered only after a period of silence. In J apan, silence from women can be considered an expression of femininity(女人味).
Even nodding ’yes’ or sharking one ’ s head ‘no’ can be misunderstood abroad . The yes-no gestures are reversed(相反) in countries like Bulgaria and Albania. In Turkey, “no” is gestured by nodding one ’s head up and back.
Some countries, like Italy and Spain, are known for talking with their hands. In parts of East Asia, gesturing is cons idered impolite behavior in a formal situation.
( )57 .What can we do if we want to express embarrassment?
A. Smile B. Cry C. Keep silent D .Shake our heads.
( )58..Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
