I have been teaching animal behavior at the Boulder County Jail in Colorado for 10 years. The course is one of the most popular in the prison. Prisoners have to earn the right to attend the course and they work hard to get in.
One reason why the course is so popular is that many prisoners find it easier to connect with animals than with people, because animals don't judge them. They trust animals in ways they don't with humans.
Yet, they hold a misunderstanding of how animals treat one another. Many admit that their own “animal behavior” is what got them into trouble in the first place. I teach that though there is competition and aggression in the animal kingdom, there is also a lot of cooperation (合作) and sympathy.
Many of the students want to build healthy relationships, and they find that the class helps them. I use examples of the social behavior of groupliving animals such as wolves as a model for developing and maintaining (維持) friendships among people who must work together for their own good and also for the good of the group.
It's clear that science inspires the students here and it also gives them hope. I know some students have gone back into education after their being set free while others have gone to work for humane (人道的) societies or contributed time and money to conservation organizations. One went on to receive a master's degree in nature writing.
Science and humane education help the prisoners connect with values that they
【1】The author's course is welcomed by the prisoners because ________.

【2】The author used wolves as an example to ________.
A．provide the prisoners with more knowledge
B．explain the cruel side of groupliving animals
C．help the prisoners realize the importance of teamwork
D．inform the prisoners that animals get people into trouble
【3】We can infer from the text that some prisoners ________.
A．have turned over a new leaf
B．are required to attend the course
C．are willing to learn working skills
D．prefer humane education to science

College is not just about studying, writing essays and burning the midnight oil in the library. Making friends and enjoying yourself is also necessary for the courses. Parties are social events for students to gather and chat with each other.
Drinking and music College parties in the US are always lacking in creativity and full of wine and music. The basic form rarely changes — drink until you cannot anymore and play loud music at an earthshaking volume. There is plenty of beer involved, and some mixed cocktails.
Creativity in dress The creativity comes in how parties are dressed up. Parties often have a specific theme, like a 90s party or a sports party. At a 90s party, guests might show up dressed like oncefamous celebrities. At a sports party, guests might wear their favorite team's uniforms.
Held in apartments The party is usually held in the apartment of a particular outgoing friend. Everyone will be invited, which means strangers will wander in and out of the apartment where you can get to know and make some new friends.
Ugly sweater party On holidays, parties frequently take on a proper theme. A popular theme around Christmas is the ugly sweater party. The goal is to wear the ugliest sweater you can find, creating an atmosphere of fun.
Whatever the occasion is, there will be no shortage of booze. If you are smart enough, you won't have so much as to lose your consciousness. Parties are always better when you can remember them the next day.
【1】This pssage introduces ________.
A．what to wear at the US college parties
B．how much to drink at the US college parties
C．how to make friends at the US colleges
D．parties of the US colleges
【2】The passage is probably written for ________ in colleges.
A．the freshmen B．the party lovers
C．the graduates D．the excellent students
【3】The author attaches importance to ________ at the parties in colleges.

A．Juice. B．Alcohol.

【題目】On May 23, 1989, Stefania Follini came out from a cave at Carlsbad, New Mexico. She hadn’t seen the sun for eighteen and a half weeks. Stefania was in a research program, and the scientists in the program were studying body rhythms. In this experiment Stefania had spent 130days in a cave, 30 feet in depth.
During her time in the cave, Stefania had been completely alone except for two white mice. Her living place had been very comfortable, but there had been nothing to tell her the time. She’d had no clocks or watches, no television or radio. There had been no natural light and the temperature had always been kept at 21℃.
The results were very interesting. Stefania had been in the cave for over four months, but she thought she had been there for only two. Her body clock had changed. She hadn’t kept to a 24-hour day, she had stayed awake for 20～25 hours and then had slept for 10 hours. She had eaten fewer meals and had lost 171bs in weight as a result! She had also become rather depressed.
How had she spent her time in the cave? As part of the experiment she’d done some physical and mental tests. She’d recorded her daily activities and the results of the tests on a computer. This computer had been specially programmed for the project. Whenever she was free, she’d played cards, read books and listened to music. She’d also learned French from tapes.
The experiment showed that our body clocks are affected by light and temperature. For example， the pattern of day and night makes us wake up and go to sleep. However, people are affected in different ways. Some people wake up naturally at 5:00 a.m., but others don’t start to wake up till 9:00 or 10:00 a.m. This affects the whole daily rhythm. As a result the early risers are at their best in the late morning. The late risers, on the other hand, are tired during the day and only come to life in the afternoon or evening!
【1】Stefania stayed in the cave for a long time because ________.
A. she was asked to do research on mice
B. she wanted to experience loneliness
C. she was the subject of a study
D. she needed to record her life
【2】What is a cause for the change of Stefania’s body clock?
A. Eating fewer meals. B. Having more hours of sheep.
C. Lacking physical exercise. D. Getting no natural light.
【3】This passage mainly tells about ________.
A. an experiment and its result B. a woman living in the cave
C. a depressed woman D. a woman and two mice

【題目】閱讀理解。
Dear Mr. Wolfson，
The purpose of this letter is to inform you of one of our citizens who I believe should receive some special recognition for dedicated (敬業(yè)的) community service. The person I recommend is Elizabeth Samuelson. I believe you know her in your position as volunteer coordinator (協調員)．
I have known Elizabeth for more than 20 years as both a friend and a neighbor. During that time I have seen her work tirelessly on scores of community projects and committees. As far as I know, she has never received any kind of recognition from the community for her work. I believe she should be given some sort of special recognition.
Just last year alone, she worked on at least six different community projects including the Park Renewal Project and the Heritage Homes FundRaising Banquet. In addition, she is a weekly driver for the MealsonWheels program and she visits patients in the care unit on a regular basis. Whenever a project or committee needs her, she will put herself into the work wholeheartedly. I'm sure that if you check with a few of your staff members who have been there over the years, they will confirm Elizabeth's community service record and probably be able to add many examples to the few I have given here. By the way, Elizabeth has no idea that I am writing this. She is a humble (謙虛的) person, and if she were aware of it, she would not allow me to send it.
I thought about writing such a letter about her a nmber of times in the past but just never took action. Then last week, I noticed in the paper that you sponsor (主辦) an annual dinner at which dozens of awards are given out to people with much less community service than Elizabeth. In fact, I checked with her and she has never even been invited to that annual event!
I urge you to correct that omission (疏忽) now and take action to see that Elizabeth is properly recognized for her many years of silent but outstanding service to this community.
Sincerely，
Linda Sullivan
【1】Linda is Elizabeth's ________.
A．friend and colleague B．neighbor and leader
C．neighbor and worker D．friend and neighbor
【2】From the letter we know that Linda ________ Elizabeth much.
A．depends on B．looks down upon
C．ignores D．respects
【3】According to the letter, Elizabeth ________.
A．wants to be asked to take part in the annual event
B．contributes much to the community
C．has been invited to the annual dinner
D．has been given a lot of honors
【4】What can we learn about Mr.Wolfson from the letter?
A．He knows Linda quite well.
B．He is a careless person.
C．He tries something to reward those who have done much community service.
D．He tries his best to find Elizabeth and do something to reward her.
