different dynasties.
I have a golden dog named Bobby. He is an amazing dog and once saved me.
I usually take him to a big natural park when I have time.He can remember all the routes (路线) in the park.
When I park my car outside the park, he always jumps out of the car with excitement and goes in front of
me,knowing where I would go.
One day, I left the car in the same place to take a walk in the park. But Bobby seemed very strange. He didn’t
want to go ahead in the park. I tried to call him but he just sat and kept barking at me. So I said, “Then, I will keep
walking ahead.” I walked about 200 meters away while he was still barking. Then he suddenly rushed towards me,
bit (咬) my trousers and crazily tried to pull my leg. He didn’t let me take another step.
At last I had to give up walking ahead, but I still didn’t understand his action.“OK, you don’t want me to walk
today. Let’s go home then.” He quickly went back towards the car, but he stopped every a few meters to see
whether I was following him. Then, we went home safely.
I couldn’t understand what he did in the park until the next morning. I was siting in a coffee shop and reading
the newspaper. In the front﹣page was a big photo of a black bear. The reporter said that it appeared in the same
park that day. “There was no accident and we took him out of the park.” A policeman said to the reporter. So now, I
knew why Bobby was always tying to go ahead in the park. I didn’t see or hear any black bear. However, Bobby
did very early！
Treat your dogs with kindness. Some day they will help you and even save you.

sunrise does. Lights built into the bed turn on and start to get brighter and brighter. When the lights are fully on,
soft music will begin to play. It will be louder and louder until you turn it off. The company explains, “The gentle
light tells your body that it is morning, so it stops producing a chemical that helps you sleep.”

People use laughter to communicate with others. It’s how we tell friends that we find their jokes funny, or how
kids in a park show that they are having fun. Humans laugh to express many kinds of feelings, from happy to sad,
from like to hate and so on. But how about animals? Do they also laugh? If they do laugh, is there a connection
between animals’ laughing and playing?
A study shows that not only humans but also some animals enjoy good laughter. Scientists at the University of
California, Los Angeles UCLA, suggested that a number of animals can laugh. Through their research, they found
that 65 kinds or groups of animals laugh while playing. The animals that laugh the most include monkeys, rats and
dolphins.
Animal sound sometimes is like a short laughter, but scientists said that not all of these are connected to
playing. After all, animals sometimes make sound as if they are laughing but in fact, they are in danger, or perhaps
they are using it to fight with animals that may eat them.
Sasha Winkler, a scientist studying animal behavior, noticed that the small monkeys she worked with liked to
play together by catching each other. While having fun together, they made panting sounds, almost like they were
out of breath, which reminded Winkler of quiet laughter. In that sense, researchers pointed out very interesting
ideas of laughter and panting. They believe that laughter comes from heavy breathing during play.
Study suggests that many animals laugh so that their playing partner knows they are having fun. This is
important because animal play can sometimes look like fighting. Laughter becomes a way for animals to stop
harmful act when communicating with others. Some animals also make a “play face” like a smile to show that they

are happy and not angry.
One big difference between human laughter and animal laughter is that humans laugh much more loudly. Most
sounds animals make during play are very quiet so they can only be heard by the animal they are playing with. But
for humans, loud laughter is a sign that we’re part of a group. “It’s really amazing that so many animals have a
similar function of sound during play,” said Winkler. “These special parts of animal laughter will also be an
important area for future study.”
30. Animals sometimes make sound as if they are laughing when they want to _______.
A. hide their true feelings
B. play tricks on their partners
.
C interest more partners to join in
D. warn animals that may eat them
31. The word “panting” in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to _______.
A. loud B. quiet C. breathless
32. What do you know about animal laughter from the passage? _______
A. All kinds of animals laugh when they are playing.
B. It can be a way for animals to stop harmful act.
C. Animals make sound of laugh louder than humans.
D. It usually shows they are happy and not angry.
33. Why does the writer mention the difference in the last paragraph? _______
A. To lead to the topic of future research on laughter.
B. To show the function of animal laugh during play.
C. To explain that loud laughter is a sign for people to be in a group.
D. To suggest that human should train animals to laugh while playing.
四、阅读表达阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。
In the live-streaming(直播) video of Yang Weiyun, no singing or dancing is performed nor are products sold.
Yang teaches pinyin, reading and writing, something that has been most common to her for the past 50 years. The
difference is her students are mostly adults.
The 73-year-old used to be a Chinese teacher. After retirement (退休), Yang wanted to do something
meaningful. The rise of short video platforms (平台) gave her the idea of continuing her teaching online. At first,
she offered free pinyin lessons for kids. However, she gradually learned among her fans there are many illiterate
(不识字的) adults. So she decided to give lessons online for adults. Yang said she found many illiterate adults
develop a sense of shame (羞愧的).

They are afraid to go to new places, worried that they couldn’t teach their children. So she added more
information in her lessons to meet their needs.
“Many illiterate adults didn’t have the chance to go to school when they were young. They are the ones in
need of learning words. I wanted to give them a new starting point,” Yang said.
Considering that most adult students have to make time to attend the lessons, Yang holds two live-streaming
lessons every day starting at 8: 30 am and 8: 30 pm. Now she has nearly 300,000 fans on the short video platform
Douyin.
Zhang Mei who was born and raised in the countryside is one of them. She had never been to school. She
watches Yang’s live-streaming whenever she has spare time. Now she can read Chinese characters with pinyin and
she has found a job.
Yang always prepares her classes carefully, for the students learning through her videos have their own needs.
Yang said she tried her best to find out what ways the students can learn and remember better, and her biggest wish
now is to see these students graduate (毕业) from her classes.

35. Why did she decide to give lessons online for adults? ____________________
