①Can animals talk It is true that they are not able to use words like ours, but most of them can talk in their own way.
②When the cat is happy and pleased, how does she show it She purrs, and this is her way of saying. “I am quite happy now.” If she is unhappy, or in pain, or hungry, she mews. If she is angry, she sets up her back and moves her tail from side to side. If she is treated（对待）in a way she does not like, her tail goes straight up in the air, and she walks out of the room.
③If your dog is pleased, he puts back his ears, waves his tail, and seems to smile. If he is angry, he growls（咆哮）, shows his teeth, puts up his tail and the hair along his back and neck, walks around slowly, and makes himself look very fierce. This is the dog’s way of saying. “I am mad, I have a mind to bite you.”
④When a hen sees a dog coming near her chickens, have you not noticed how she waves her wings, raises her tail, and rushes to the dog This is her way of saying. “Be off, or I will peck you with my hard beak（喙）.” If she sees a hawk, she makes a strange noise, and her chickens at once run away and hide themselves. They understand their mother to say. “Quick, get out of sight, dears! There is danger near.” When she finds some nice food, she makes another kind of noise. The chickens know quite well what it means, and run at once to share the food their mother has found for them.

Recently, scientists have developed a new artificial intelligence（人工智能）technology that can detect（识别）whether someone is lying by analyzing（分析）the muscles（肌肉）in their face.
Patches（贴片）placed on a person’s face detect muscle activity and then machine learning technology is used. The machine can calculate（计算）whether or not the person has been telling lies. Invented by Yael Hanein at Tel Aviv University in Israel, the machine showed a success rate of 73 percent, implying（表明）it can catch liars（说谎者）with ease（轻松地）.
According to researchers from the University of British Columbia, Canada, some of the muscles on our faces change “behavior” when we are lying. Liars usually raise their eyebrows. They also blink（眨眼）a lot and hold their eyes closed for longer. Closing the eyes is a way to buy time for the liar so that they can better perfect their story.
Liars often blush（脸红）. Blood flows into the cheeks as they become nervous about the truth possibly being revealed（揭露）. Liars also have fake smiles. A real smile often causes the eyes to light up or become smaller. This is because more muscles are used when we are happy.
A fake smile is often accompanied（伴随）by “dead” eyes instead.
28．What is the purpose of developing the new artificial intelligence technology
A．To tell whether someone is lying. B．To understand facial expressions.
C．To control muscle activities. D．To create facial masks.
29．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to
A．The success rate. B．The machine. C．The patch. D．Muscle activity.
30．What are the last three paragraphs mainly about
A．How researchers did their study. B．How liars make up a perfect story.
C．Reasons for detecting lies. D．People’s behaviors while they are lying.
31．Which is the best title for the passage
A．Lying with muscles in the face
B．Telling lies makes people nervous
C．Finding lies with new artificial intelligence
D．Faking smiles with artificial intelligence technology

Since crepes come from France, French people have a special holiday just to celebrate this food. The Day of the Crepes falls on February 2.

40．surprised 41．dog’s 42．quickly 43．on 44．a 45．to push 46．him 47．threw 48．and 49．fourth
【导语】本文主要讲述了一条聪明的狗去肉店买肉，肉贩很吃惊，于是一路跟随狗回到家中，途中见识了狗的各种聪明之处，但是狗最后却遭到了主人的抱怨和惩罚，肉贩前去阻止，才知道是因为狗已经是这个月第四次忘记带钥匙了。
40．句意：肉贩很惊讶。此处修饰The butcher，指人，用形容词surprised作表语。故填surprised。
41．句意：他拿了钱，把一袋羊排放进狗嘴里，然后很快地关上了店门。此处修饰名词mouth，应用名词所有格形式。故填dog’s。
42．句意：他拿了钱，把一袋羊排放进狗嘴里，然后很快地关上了店门。此处修饰动词closed，应用副词形式。故填quickly。
43．句意：他查了一下时间表，然后坐在长凳上。根据“sat ... the bench.”可知，是指坐在长椅上，on“在……上面”。故填on。
44．句意：一会之后，他用后爪站立起来按下“停止”按钮。after a while“一会之后”，固定短语。故填a。
45．句意：一会之后，他用后爪站立起来按下“停止”按钮。根据“he stood on his back paws ... the ‘stop’ button.”可知，他站立起来的目的是按“停止”按钮，空处用不定式作目的状语。故填to push。
46．句意：然后这个肉贩跟着他下车。动词followed后跟宾格him作宾语。故填him。
47．句意：他回到小径上，大跑了一圈，朝门口扑过去。根据“went”、“took”可知，and连接的几个并列动作，时态保持一致，因此用过去式。故填threw。
48．句意：然后一个大汉开了门，开始抱怨这只狗，还打他。根据“Then a big man opened the door ... started complaining about”可知，前后是并列关系，用and连接。故填and。
49．句意：他这个月已经是第四次忘带钥匙了！根据“the ... time”可知，此处表示第四次，用序数词。故填fourth。
50．plan to ask for/am going to ask for
【详解】plan to do sth“计划做某事”，be going to do“打算做某事”，ask for other’s help“向别人求助”，主语I是第一人称单数，谓语用动词原形，be动词用am。故填plan to ask for/am going to ask for。
51． take action
【详解】根据中英文对照可知，空处缺少“采取行动”take action，此处放在情态动词should后，应使用动词原形。故填take；action。
52．warm up
【详解】根据中英文对照可知，空处缺“热身”的英文表达。warm up意为“热身”；根据“make sure to”可知，考查make sure to do sth.“务必做某事”，所以填动词原形。故填warm up。
53．in danger
【详解】根据汉语提示，可知横线上应填“濒危”，英文表达为in danger，in danger为介词短语，作后置定语，修饰前面的名词animals。故填in danger。
54．not to eat too many biscuits/not to eat too many cookies
【详解】根据中英文对照可知，空处缺“勿食太多饼干”的英文表达。eat too many biscuits/cookies意为“吃太多饼干”；根据“advises him”可知，考查advise sb not to do sth.“建议某人不要做某事”，所以填not to eat too many biscuits/cookies。故填not to eat too many biscuits/cookies。
55．provide food and cover for
【详解】provide sth for sb“提供某物给某人”，情态动词can后动词provide应用原形；food“食物”，不可数名词；cover“庇护地，躲避处”，不可数名词；and“和”。故填provide food and cover for。
56．例文
Giving pandas a good life
What animal has 6 fingers and wears a black and white coat Yes, it’s the panda! Pandas are so popular because they are cute and shy. They are also friendly to people. They like eating bamboo. It seems that they like sleeping all day if possible.
It is known that pandas are endangered. For one thing, many people cut down lots of trees so they may have terrible living conditions. For another, they may die of illnesses easily because many of them are out of protection.
I hope the government can build more natural panda homes. Also, it is necessary that everyone should treat them as our friends and protect their homes.
