Most people think of racing when they see greyhounds (灰狗) and believe they need lots of exercise. They can actually be quite lazy!

Greyhounds are good at fast races but not long-distance running. They do need regular exercise but they like to run for a short burst and

then get back on the bed or a comfortable seat. Another misunderstanding is that greyhounds must be aggressive(好斗的) because they are big in size. In fact greyhounds love people and are gentle with children.

Greyhounds can live for 12 – 14 years but usually only race for two or three years, and after that they make great pets. They don’t need a lot of space, don’t make a lot of noise, and don’t eat a lot for their size.

Normally, greyhounds can be as tall as 90 cm. There is, however, a small-sized greyhound, which stands only 33cm. Greyhounds

come in a variety of colors. Grey and yellowish-brown are the most common. Others include black, white, blue, red and brown or a mix of these.

Greyhounds have smooth body coats, low body fat and are very healthy. Because they’re slim (苗条的) they don’t have the leg

problems like other dogs the same height. But they do feel the cold, especially since they would much rather be at home in bed than walking around outside.

56. The text is written mainly______. A. to tell people how to raise greyhounds B. to let people know more about greyhounds C. to explain why greyhounds are aggressive D. to describe greyhounds of different colors 57. It can be inferred that greyhounds_______. A. love big doghouses B. like staying in bed all day C. make the best guard dogs D. need some exercise outdoors

58. Why does the author say that greyhounds make great pets? A. They are big in size. B. They live a very long life. C. They can run races for some time. D. They are quiet and easy to look after.

59. If you keep a pet greyhound, it is important________. A. to keep it slim B. to keep it warm

C. to take special care of its legs D. to take it to animal doctors regularly

I stopped at a gas station(加油站)about 50 miles from Oklahoma City, where I was planning to stop and visit a friend. While I was standing in line at the cash register(收款台), I said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas.

I took off, but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car. I stopped and wondered what I should do.A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friend's We chatted on the way into the city, and when I got out of the car, the husband gave me his business card.

I wrote him and his wife a thank-you note for helping me. Soon afterward, I received a Christmas present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.

Years later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In late afternoon I returned to my car and found that I'd left the lights

on all day, and the battery(电池)was dead. Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealership - a shop selling cars - was right next door. I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom.

\

They would accept no payment, so when I got home, I wrote them a note to say thanks. I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write him and say thank you, and it meant a lot, he said. \60. The author planned to stop at Oklahoma City_________.

C

A study of English learning problems was carried out among a total of 106 foreign students. It shows that most students considered

understanding spoken English to be their biggest problem on arrival. This was followed by speaking. Writing increased as a problem as

students discovered difficulties in writing papers that they were now expected to hand in. Reading remained as a significant(显著的) problem.

The information gained helped us in determining where special attention should be paid in our course. Although many students have

chosen to join the course with a reasonable motivation(动机), we considered it important to note what seemed to encourage interest. Nearly

all the students have experienced some kind of grammar-based English teaching in their own country. To use the same method would be

self-defeating because it might reduce motivation, especially if it has failed in the past. Therefore a different method may help because it is different.

Variety of activity was also seen as a way of maintaining(保持) or increasing motivation. Several years ago we had one timetable that

operated throughout, but we soon found that both the students and the teachers lost interest by about halfway through the ten weeks. This led us to a major re-think, so finally we brought it into line with the expressed language needs of the students. 65. What is the text mainly about? A. Foreign students have more problems. B. There are many ways to improve English. C. Teaching should meet students’ needs.

D. English learning problems should be studied again.

66. Writing became a bigger problem when foreign students________. A. had to write their papers B. became better at speaking
