    Many of our family traditions centered around food. We'd gather in the kitchen for every birthday and holiday and enjoy delicious food. My grandparents always held Christmas dinner, which included chicken cacciatore, sausage, meatballs and salad. But right before we sat down to eat, my grandmother would pull me aside to show me the dish she made just for me: fresh pasta (意大利面) with tomato sauce.

    It was a simple dish, but to me it was warm food that filled me with happiness. But more than that, it made me feel like I belonged. I was a shy kid and, in many situations, I felt ignored. And here was my grandmother, showing me that I mattered.

    Years went by; I moved away and got married. I'd visit throughout the years and my grandmother would serve up a plate of pasta.

    When my daughter was born in 2020, for the first time in my life I wasn't about to make the trip back home for Christmas. I cooked my family's traditional foods and my husband and I had a big meal that included, of course, fresh pasta. I had a video call with my grandmother and showed her the pasta. Shortly after the holidays she passed away unexpectedly.

    It seemed so unfair that my grandmother passed away soon after I became a parent. I'd hold my daughter and think about how I could tell her what an amazing great-grandmother she had.

    In my sadness I came to an answer: food. Late at night after my daughter had gone to bed, I'd go to the kitchen and learn how to make fresh pasta, cooking my grandmother's recipes. Before long I started experimenting, making a bit changes to classic recipes. When my daughter got a little older, I began making special dishes for her with my grandmother's flavors in mind.

    I know that no matter how hard I try, my daughter will never have a bowl pasta with sauce exactly like the ones my grandmother would make for me. While that makes me sad, she'll still get to have my pasta sauce. I know there're two things she'll never lack for in this life: pasta and love.

    1. (1) What did the author say about her grandmother's homemade pasta?
      A . It was a special birthday gift for her. B . It brought her a sense of belonging. C . It was loved by every family member. D . It took a lot of time and energy to prepare.
    2. (2) What made the author's 2020 Christmas dinner different from previous ones?
      A . She didn't share pasta with her husband. B . She didn't give her grandmother a call. C . She didn't prepare many traditional family foods. D . She didn't have a chance to eat her grandmother's pasta.
    3. (3)  Why did the author learn to make fresh pasta late at night?
      A . To honour her grandmother. B . To give her daughter a surprise. C . To meet her grandmother's wish. D . To be a role model for her daughter.
    4. (4) What can we learn about the author's pasta sauce?
      A . It isn't easy to make. B . It isn't to her daughter's liking. C . It tastes exactly the same as her grandmother's. D . It shows her love for her daughter.
    5. (5) What's the best title for the text?
      A . Different types of pasta B . The origin of pasta C . Love through pasta D . Pasta for Christmas

    Dogs have been man's best friends for 30,000 years—and now scientists think they know why.

    Dogs are usually not relaxed in a lab environment, but with a little petting and lots of treats, they can be trained to sit still even in an MRI (磁共振成像) scanner. That's how researchers at Hungary's ELTE University were able to get images of their brains at work.

    Researcher Attila Andics said it helped them better understand the dogs' relationship with humans. "We have known for a long time that dogs and humans share similar social environment, but now our results show that dogs and humans also have similar brain mechanisms (方法;机制) to process social information," said Andics.

    After training 11 dogs to stay motionless while their brains were scanned, the researchers checked their neurological (神经系统的) responses to about 200 emotionally

    significant sounds, from whining and crying to playful barking and laughing. They then compared the responses from human subjects. They found great similarities. Andics said it opened new possibilities for the research.

    "It establishes a foundation of a new branch of comparative neuroscience, because until now it was not possible to measure the brain activities of a non-primate and a primate (灵长类) brain in a single experiment," said Andies.

    Evan Maclean, Professor in Duke University, said that the Hungarian results were an important step forward.

    "We've known for a long time that dogs have a lot of behavioral similarities compared to humans. But we don't know anything or very little at least about whether some of these behaviors are represented similarly inside the brain of the dog, so this research is providing a first glimpse into whether these behavioral similarities are underlined by similar neural processes," said MacLean.

    The Hungarian scientists tell ordinary dog owners to treat their dog companions as intelligent friends, not mere animals, because they evidently understand human feelings.

    1. (1) Why were treats used in the research?
      A . To reduce dogs' nervousness. B . To help dogs live a still life. C . To find out dogs' favorite food. D . To analyze dogs' images of brains.
    2. (2)  Through the new research, the scientists find that ____.
      A . dogs are unlikely to understand human feelings B . dogs eagerly accept human beings as their best friends C . dogs tend to have different responses to different sounds D . dogs are close to humans in processing social information
    3. (3) The researchers compare the neurological responses of the dogs with those of human subjects by ____.
      A . analyzing their physical movements B . observing their facial expressions C . measuring brain activities through scanning D . assessing their different vocalizations
    4. (4)  How should we treat dogs according to the scientists?
      A . Treating them as private property. B . Considering them as smart creatures. C . Regarding them as wild animals. D . Viewing them as tools for specific tasks.
    5. (5)  What is the value of the research?
      A . To call on dog owners to treat dogs well. B . To advance the research on dogs' brains. C . To establish comparative neuroscience. D . To reveal why dogs are men's best friends.

    We sometimes think that everything was much better and easier in the past. It's one of the tricks our minds play on us, especially when we are in low spirits.

    Actually, it's unlikely that things were objectively better in the past. This form of thinking is calledrosy retrospection, which is a well-studied cognitive bias. It happens because when we think about the past, we are more likely to focus on positive generalities than annoying details.

    If you think back to a holiday with your family five years ago, you're likely to recall the beautiful views rather than the uncomfortable bed. In other words, the negative details disappear from our memory over time while the positive ones remain.

    Rosy retrospection can influence how we make decisions, and it's one of the reasons why we easily return into problematic relationships. The longer it is since we experienced the negative influence of a relationship, the more likely we are to let the good memories outweigh the bad memories and to perhaps forgive unforgivable behavior. It's always a good idea to review our nostalgic (怀旧的) feelings with a healthy degree of doubt.

    But rosy retrospection does serve an important purpose. It keeps us in a positive state of mind in the present and is important to our psychological wellbeing. In fact, people who tend to remember negative experiences more than positive ones are likely to exhibit psychological disorders. Research generally suggests that our happiest days are still to come. And even if they're not, it's still important to believe that they are. Don't shy away from looking upon the past with a certain degree of nostalgia. But, for the same reason, don't use the past as an excuse to be unhappy in the present.

    1. (1) When we think about the past, we usually ____.
      A . improve present living conditions B . beautify past experiences C . focus on mind mapping D . play games to forget bad things
    2. (2) What does the underlined phrase "rosy retrospection" in Paragraph 2 mean?
      A . Having a preference for good memories. B . Remembering exactly about the details. C . Concentrating on impossible things. D . Thinking objectively about the past.
    3. (3)  Which of the following is encouraged by the author according to Paragraph 4?
      A . Reviewing the nostalgic feelings critically. B . Ignoring the nostalgic feelings absolutely. C . Forgiving the unacceptable behavior generously. D . Getting back to the problematic relationships bravely.
    4. (4) What's the main idea of the last paragraph?
      A . The good excuse for present unhappiness. B . The accuracy of remembering past details. C . The importance of maintaining a positive mindset. D . The negative impact of recalling past experiences.
    5. (5) What is the author's attitude toward rosy retrospection according to the passage?
      A . Negative. B . Subjective. C . Favorable. D . Objective.

    When 16-year-old Colin Moore is out on the football field, he is putting his heart into the game and looks just like any other teenage athlete out there. But what makes him different than the rest, is that he's playing without part of his arm.

    Moore was born without the lower part of his right arm, but he's never let that stop him from achieving anything he's put his mind to in his life, including football. "I've always had to have a mind of steel, heart of gold, and just move forward no matter what." Moore said.

    Although his arm difference has never got in the way of anything, it's been a challenge for him. But in everything he does, he's worked twice as hard as everyone else to make sure he would succeed. Moore's goal is to be a starting center, which requires a lot of body strength. Even though he is missing an arm, he makes up for it with his fast movements and strength, making him the perfect choice for this position.

    Moore looks up to the Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, and aims to be just like him one day. Moore's hard work even got him noticed by his hero. After seeing a video of Moore playing football, Kelce sent him one back. Kelce told Moore that his perseverance is a great encouragement to him. He even invited Moore to join him and the Eagles at their training camp so they could meet him.

    Moore's coach Frank Holmes agrees with Kelce andcompliments Moore's perseverance. "The thing I can say about Colin is this: he was born with a challenging situation, but every day he has a positive attitude and focuses fully on whatever he does. He trains hard."

    1. (1)  What makes Moore different from other athletes? (no more than 10 words)
    2. (2)  How did Moore achieve his goal? (no more than 5 words)
    3. (3)  What did Jason Kelce do after seeing Moore play? (no more than 20 words)
    4. (4)  What is the meaning of the underlined word in the last paragraph? (1 word)
    5. (5) How does Moore's story inspire you? Please explain. (no more than 20 words)
