Do you like air travel with a service dog? Air travel makes some people very nervous. The crowds, the noise and flying itself can cause unease. But there are classes people can take to help them defeat their fear of flying. And, let me introduce similar training for service dogs that suffer the same problem

Service dogs almost never leave the side of the people they care for. You will see them working on buses, trains and other public transport systems. But the busy environment found at an airport can trouble even the best trained working dog.

People with disabilities depend on their dogs. They want the animals to safely guide them through security areas. They also need the dogs to remain calm on duty on the plane, even when the flying is not smooth. This takes special training. The Air Hollywood K9 Flight School is one place where such help can be found.

The school has a piece of equipment that provides the sights, sounds and even the feel of an airplane in flight. It is called a flight simulator, which was built for filming airplane scenes in movies.

Sandy Alexander has a disability that requires his two-year-old dog, Doc, to be always at his side. Mr. Alexander took the dog to the flight school to get him ready for plane trips. He says Doc did not like the bumpy part of the flight simulation( 模拟).

Dog trainer Mary Segall is with Canine Companions for Independence. It provides dogs for people with disabilities. Ms Segall says successful training is based on a simple rule: preparation.

" Dogs need to be exposed gradually and repetitively to stimulation, to the environment, to loud noises, to sounds and to other dogs so that when this experience happens to them on a daily basis, they are　 able to act in a way that they're used to acting and that they don't get excitable."

Dog owners who attended the training at Air Hollywood K9 Flight School say they now feel much more at ease about future flight. Their dogs also seem ready for take-off.

1.How does the author introduce the topic of the text?

A. By asking a question.　　 B. By introducing a novel.

C. By comparing fear of flying.　　 D. By giving an example.

2.Why is Sandy Alexander's example given in Paragraph 5?

A. Because he likes dogs.

B. Because his dog is clever.

C. Because he will play a role in a film.

D. Because the author wants to develop the following paragraphs.

3.From the last paragraph we can draw a conclusion that ________.

A. the training is very easy

B. service dogs don't like flying with their owners

C. service dogs adapt themselves to the stimulation slowly.

D. dog owners are satisfied with training

Autumn is a time when nature prepares to test and it is just the same with many people.With less energy or strength they have no desire to meet with friends after work，preferring to sit still in front of the television before going to bed early.And the next morning they find it hard to get up, too.

For most people, this period of time passes without any major effects, but a small minority suffer from complete winter depression(压抑)．Apart from tiredness and without energy, the latter often has the following symptoms(症状)．

They have an increased need for sleep and also for sweet food like chocolate.Normally, depression is along with difficulty in falling asleep and loss of appetite(胃口)．

True winter depression exists when the symptoms occur repeatedly in autumn and winter.Moreover, they have to last at least two weeks.Symptoms of winter depression begin for northern hemisphere(北半球)countries in October, November or December, and reduce in January.The symptoms decrease when the days grow longer again.

Lack of light during the cold months is the cause of people's depression.

To reduce the bad effect of the winter depression, sufferers should spend as much time outdoors as possible.Exercise is also a tested cure for depression.A regular sleep wake cycle can help too, and sufferers should stick to it even at weekends.By getting up early, they can receive more daylight regardless of the weather.

高二英语单项填空中等难度题查看答案及解析

Many Chinese people are confused with the two nations: one is known for its cheese and watches; the other for IKEA and Volvo.

The problem largely stems from the fact that both nation’s names are written similarly in Mandarin---Ruidian(Sweden) and Ruishi (Switzerland)------which begin with the same symbol, according to the Swedish Consul General Victoria Liu in China.

In an effort to put an end to the mix-up, the Swedish and Swiss governments have launched a competition on a website, asking Chinese people to come up with funny ways to help differentiate the two countries.　 Submissions can be accepted as a blog post, cartoon, photo, short film or in any other format.

The winner with the best submission will receive a 12-day trip to Sweden and Switzerland and will be expected to report back on his/her impressions of both countries following the trip, the website states.　 Entries will be accepted until November 20.

The organizers have also devised a humorous campaign logo with objects and people associated with Sweden and Switzerland on separate maps of each country.　 Sweden’s map features meatballs, a Viking, as well as two male cartoon figures with a heart between them symbolizing gay marriage, which remains illegal in Switzerland.　 Switzerland’s map features cheese, the Alps and a picture of Roger Federer.

China may not be the only country struggling to tell Sweden and Switzerland apart.　 Residents of Spanish-speaking countries also fall victim to the confusion as Sweden is spelt “Suecia” in Spanish while Switzerland is called “Suiza”.

Sweden and Switzerland aren’t the only places that have caused confusion among people.　 Last month, , a British holidaymaker hoped to explore the architecture of the Alhambra Palace in Granada, Spain, but instead mistakenly caught a flight across the Atlantic to the tropical Caribbean island of Grenada following a confusing booking blunder.　 Earlier this summer, two US holidaymakers were flown to the wrong continent after an airline confused two airport codes.

1.What can we learn about the competition launched by the two governments?

A. The winner of the competition will receive a 24-day trip altogether to both of the countries.

B. The winner will report his/her impressions on the two countries in his/her submission.

C. The competition is held among all people around the world.

D. The competition is held in order to stop people’s confusion about the two countries.

2.Why does the author mention the British holidaymaker?

A. To show us many people are confused by Sweden and Switzerland.

B. To prove airports make mistakes about people’s places too.

C. To explain Spanish-speaking people make mistakes too.

D. To prove many people are confused about some places.

3.In which part of a newspaper could you probably find the passage?

A. Tourism　　 B. News review　　 C. Business　　 D. Culture

4.What does the underlined word “devised” mean?

A. Compared.　　 B. Collected.　　　 C. Invented.　　 D.Installed

With the development of society, it is common that many people are rushing all the way and all day, tired and sub-healthy.1. She described all the things she had to do--- one was to make her bed ---from the moment she woke up until she flew out of the door for work. I suggested she experiment by not making her bed for two weeks. She was shocked, probably thinking I’d been brought up by wolves in a forest.2.

Two weeks later she went into my office merrily. She had left her bed unmade for the first time in 42 years--- and nothing bad had happened. “And you know what?” she said. “I don’t dry my dishes anymore, either.”

3. One was discovering that she had choices in her life that she had never seen before. The other was giving herself permission to be less than perfect. This story shows an important principle about managing time: no one can do it all. Each of us has to make choices and accept trade-offs(利弊权衡). The problem is that many people choose in ways that put themselves and their health last. They take better care of their houses and cars than they do of themselves.4.

So what is the solution? There’s an easy way. Decide what　 you want in your life, and put that first. On a daily basis, that should include regular meals, enough sleep and time with your family. Exercise, leisure, friendships and hobbies should also be regular aspects of life. 5. The choice is yours: whatever makes you feel good about yourself and your life. Take a nap. Take a walk. Take time to play the piano. Stop bringing your briefcase home from the office. Stop keeping your house as clean as your mother kept hers. Fill more of your time with want-to-dos instead of have-to-dos.

A. Most people do not take time to relax themselves.

B. The point is to do something for yourself every day.

C. This woman had made two major breakthroughs.

D. A patient came to see me about the stress in her life.

E. Above all, you needn’t do anything for yourself regularly

Parents and the Young

It is natural that young people are often uncomfortable being with their parents. They say that their parents don’t understand them. 1. And they tend to feel that their parents are too serious and too strict with their children, seldom giving their children a free hand.

Parents often find it difficult to win their children’s trust. And they always forget how they themselves felt when young. 2. It is one of their ways to show that they have grown up. But older people worry more easily; most of them plan things ahead.

Young people often make their parents angry with their choice in clothes, in entertainment and in music. 3. It is just that they feel cut off from the older people’s world, into which they have not yet been accepted. That’s why young people want to make a new culture of their own, which makes their parents worried and upset.

Sometimes you are so proud of yourself that you do not want your parents say “yes” to what you do. 4. It is natural enough, after being a child for so many years, when you were completely under your parents’ control.

5. When your parents see that you have a high sense of responsibility, they will certainly give you the right to do what you want to do.

A. So how should you understand that?

B. But they do not mean to cause any trouble.

C. All you want is to be left alone and do what you like.

D. If you plan to handle your life, try to win your parents over.

E. They think that their parents don’t keep pace with modern ways.

F. You will have better success if you ask before you really start doing it.

G. For example, young people like to act on the spot without much thinking.

Culture in general is concerned with beliefs and values on the basis of which people explain experiences and behaviors, individually or in groups. Generally speaking, culture refers to a group or community with which you share common experiences that shape the way you understand the world.

The same person, thus, can belong to several different cultures depending on his or her birthplace, nationality, ethnicity, family status, gender, age, language, education, physical condition, religion, profession, place of work and so on.

Culture is often at the root of communication challenges. Exploring historical experiences and the ways in which various cultural groups have related to each other is important in opening channels for cross-cultural communication. Becoming more aware of cultural differences, as well as exploring cultural similarities, can help you communicate with others more effectively. Next time you find yourself in a confusing situation, ask yourself how culture may be shaping your own reactions, and try to see the world from the others’ point of view.
