Bartender was surprised, but he served that man three beers. One hour later the man ordered three beers again. The very next day that man ordered three beers again and drank quietly at a table. This repeated several times and shortly after the people of the town were whispering about the man, who was ordering three beers at once.‎ A couple of weeks later, the bartender decided to clear this out and inquired: “I do not want to pry, but could you explain, why do you order three beers all the time?” The man replied: “It seems strange, isn’t it? You see, my two brothers live abroad at the moment, one – in France and another – in Italy. We have made an agreement, that every time we go to pub each of us will order extra two beers and it will help keeping up the family bond ”.‎ Soon all the town have heard about the man’s answer and liked it a lot. The man became a ‎ local celebrity. Residents of the town were telling this story to newcomers or tourists and even invited them to that pub to look at Three Beer Man.‎ However, one day the man came to pub and ordered only two beers, not three as usual. The bartender served him with bad feeling. All that evening the man ordered and drank only two beers. The very next day all the town was talking about this news, some people pray for the soul of one of the brothers, others quietly grieve.‎ When the man came to pub the next time and ordered two beers again, the bartender asked him: “I would like to offer condolences to you, due to the death of your dear brother”. The man considered this for a moment and then replied: “Oh, you may be surprised that I order only two beers now? Well, my two brothers are alive and well. It’s just because of my decision. I promised myself to give up drinking.”‎ ‎24.

The underlined word“condolences”in the last paragraph can be replaced by______.‎ A. sympathy B. surprise C. gratitude D. appreciation ‎ C If a woman has an extra piece of cake, don’t blame it on greed, blame it on her brain. ‎ Scientists have found that women’s brains react to food very differently -- and much more strongly -- than men’s. Academics found that decades of dieting pressure on women and advertising have programmed certain parts of the female brain to react strongly when faced with any kind of food.Men, on the other hand, are not usually as obsessive about what they eat.‎ Dr. Rudolf Uher and his colleagues at the Institute of Psychiatry in King’s College London used brainscanning technology, known as functional magnetic resonance imaging (FMRI), to look at the brains of eighteen men and women.The volunteers were given images of food to look at, as well as food to taste. Their brain reactions were observed by the scientists.They found that the female brains reacted much more strongly than those of males.The same reaction did not happen when they were shown non-food images. The team believe this means women think more about food than men tend to.‎ Dr. Uher said, “ This could be related to biological differences between men and women. But the more likely explanation is that women have a more complicated reaction to food because of social pressure.”‎ Professor Carey Cooper, psychology and health professor at Lancaster University, said, “ for centuries women have had a providing role -- preparing and cooking food for their families. And it's part of that role to make sure the food is safe. They will therefore be much more sensitive to food than men are, and I would not be surprised if that was now built into their DNA. If the female brain reacts to food because it historically has developed neural(神经的) pathways to do this, then food will be the way they express their stress. Food actually, is a comfort for women.”‎ But other experts have said that more research must be done before the results can be proved. American scientist Angelo del Parigi of the John B. Pierce Laboratory in New Haven, Connecticut, said “Looking at an FMRI alone cannot make sure whether the stronger reaction in women is due to innate (天生的）differences or a learned process.”‎ ‎28.Dr.Uher and his colleagues carried out the research by comparing .‎ A. Volunteers’ reactions to food before and after meals ‎ B. FMRI’s scanning result of scientists C. women’s and men’s brain reactions to pictures of food ‎ D. volunteers’ imagination on the taste of food ‎29.In Dr. Uher’s opinion, women react more strongly to food than men most probably because they are_________‎ A.born to do so due to biological reasons B.influenced by advertisements ‎ C.told to do so for a long time D.forced by powerful social influences ‎30.According to Professor Carey Cooper, women _______.‎ A.are satisfied with preparing food for their families B.turn to food when they feel sad C.accept their social role from the heart D.are stressed because of food safety ‎31.What was Angelo del Parigi’s attitude towards the research results? ‎ A. Curious B. Surprised. C. Uninterested. D. Doubtful.‎ D JOHANNESBURG—They say cats have nine lives. Now a Chinese toad(蟾蜍) has joined that club of clever survivors.[]‎ South Africans are shocked at the endurance of a toad that got trapped in a cargo shipment from China to Cape Town, after jumping into a porcelaincandlestick(烛台) that was made there. South African officials reportedly planned to put down the creature, fearing it would cause harm as an invasive species if it were let go in the wild.‎ But the toad got a last-minute pardon. Mango Airlines, a South African airline, transported the toad on Friday to Johannesburg for delivery to an animal shelter, after officials decided to find a way to let the toad live. The two-hour flight was a breeze compared to the trip from China, a long way of many weeks and thousands of kilometers across the Indian Ocean.‎ Airline spokesman Hein Kaiser said the toad got “first-class treatment”, sitting in a transparent plastic container with escort Brett Glasby, an animal welfare inspector. There was even a ceremony, in which the toad’s boarding pass was handed to Glasby.‎ ‎“He was the star of the show on the flight,” Kaiser said of the amphibious(两栖的) passenger. “I think every passenger stopped to have a look.”‎ On landing in Johannesburg, the toad was brought out of its container for a celebrity-style photo shoot. Observers said the brown toad seemed like a cool customer. It belongs to the Asian Toad species, which breeds during the monsoon(季风) season. It is believed to have survived the trip from China by hardening its skin to prevent it from drying out, and also by slowing its ‎ breathing and heart rate—methods that help the species survive in times of drought.‎ ‎“We’ve had snakes in imported timber and scorpions(蝎子) in fruit. We were called because the toad was right inside the candlestick, and we had to break it to get it out” Glasby, the inspector, told The Star, a South African newspaper.‎ ‎32. What is the passage mainly about?‎ A. Asian toads can’t get used to the life in South Africa. ‎ B. South Africa ignores the protection of animals.‎ C. An Asian toad gets a new home in South Africa. ‎ D. Workers shipped a toad to South Africa on purpose.‎ ‎33. If the toad is released into the wild, _________.‎ A. it will make the locals feel shocked B. it will lose its life in the wild C. it might flee into another country D. it might harm the native species ‎34. The toad was able to arrive in South Africa alive_________.‎ A. because it formed hard skin to protect itself B. because it escaped all attacks and hunts C. because it used to stop its breath in winter D. because it was lucky to be given a chance ‎35. It can be inferred from the passage that_________.‎ A. a candlestick is the best place for a toad B. droughts make toads live longer C. sometimes animals are transported accidentally D. no one has seen such a big toad in Africa 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ How to Build Healthy Interpersonal Relationship Human beings are social creatures and thrive(茁壮成长) in relationships with others.
