One night, Pilar was in a deep sleep when she was woken by her cat Inti. Inti was meowing wildly outside
Pilars bedroom and throwing himself against the closed bedroom door. When Pilar opened her eyes, she saw
that her bedroom was filled with smoke. As she escaped her house with Inti in her arms, she saw that a fire was
burning in her kitchen. Pilar could easily have lost her life, but Inti would not let that happen. Even though Inti
could have escaped the house through a cat door, he wouldn’t leave Pilar.
As amazing as this story is, it is not as uncommon as you may think. Take the example of Charlotte Lee and
her horse, Thunder. One summer night, the whole family was asleep with the windows open. It was normally
very quiet where they lived. Suddenly, there was a loud noise. Charlotte woke up from her sweet dream, and the
noise continued. Then she heard a horse running fast towards the house. The next thing she saw was Thunder
standing outside her window, neighing(嘶叫) and shaking his head. She knew something was wrong. Charlotte
quickly got everyone out of the house before the earthquake hit. Thunder has saved her life.
There are also stories of wild animals coming to the rescue of humans. One animal known to be a friend of
humans is the dolphin. Once, Todd Endris was surfing with his friends when he was attacked by a 13-foot(4-
meter) shark. In the middle of the attack, a group of dolphins came to his rescue by forming a protective ring
around Endris until he could get safely to shore. Without the help of the dolphins, there is little chance that Todd
could have escaped.
No one is sure why animals have so often come to our rescue. However, it is clear that humans and animals
enjoy a close relationship. It is important that we care for them as much as we can.

AHe was trying to wake up his owner.
BHe wanted to get out of the room.

27Which of the following is probably Todd’s feeling towards the dolphins?

Confucius, a famous teacher, was a politician and philosopher who lived in “Spring and Autumn Period”.
During his lifetime, he planted the seeds for China’s transformation by teaching thousands of people. Today, he
is thought to be one of the world’s greatest teachers.
Confucius grew up in a poor family. As he grew up, Confucius worked to help his mother earn money.
When he wasn’t working, he would read. His favorite thing to do was to learn. His mother saw this and did her
best to help him learn. One day, rich families noticed how smart he was and offered him jobs counting their
money and keeping track of their crops.
Confucius did this until he was 30 years old, but he always wanted to do more. He didn’t like the way rulers
treated their subjects. He wanted to find a way to help people who were less fortunate than he was. Later, he
founded the philosophy “Confucianism”. Confucianism states that by educating yourself, loving your family,
and respecting tradition you could become a better person. Confucius believed a person could achieve these
things by practicing self-discipline. For the rest of his life, Confucius traveled and taught the people of China
about self-discipline and the importance of education. He even opened China’s first school to teach both the poor
and the wealthy as equals. Although he became very famous among China’s lower classes, the rulers of China
never accepted his teachings. Eventually, his philosophy of self-discipline helped China unite under one ruler
and finally find peace. Today, Confucius is celebrated all over the world for his philosophy of education,
equality, and peace over war, money, and injustice.
28What does the underlined word “subjects” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
AThemes. BCourses. CPeople. DTests.
29According to the author, why did Confucius open China’s first school?
ATo teach both the poor and the rich.
BTo become famous among China’s lower classes.
CTo be accepted by the rulers of China.
DTo be celebrated all over the world.
30What can we know about Confucius from the passage?
AHe was once a farmer guiding people farming. BHe was born in a politician family.
CHe once acted as a math teacher. DHe devoted himself to social change.
31What is the writers attitude towards Confucianism?
ADoubtful. BSupportive. CDisappointed. DUncertain.
D
The size of the British Isles often leads people to think that the languages spoken in its countries of
England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are somewhat the same. At first, visitors are often surprised to
find that they have difficulty in understanding the accents(口音)and dialects(方言)of certain regions. Even in
England there are many different dialects.
Experts believe that for most English people, the places they come from are very important to them.
