第二节：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。（共5小题，计5分）

As we all know, animals are important in our daily life. For example, dogs can be good helpers to human. What about monkeys?   51   Yes. They can do a great job, too. Monkeys can help disabled people live a better life just as dogs do.

   52   One difference is that monkeys live longer than dogs do. This means that a monkey's “childhood” is also longer than a dog's. So it may take them four to six years before they are ready to begin training. It's said that it is almost as much work as raising a young child!

After monkeys begin training, they usually take about a year to learn enough tasks' to be good helpers.   53   For example, if is a person wants to have the lights turned on, he or she may give the order “sun”.   54   The monkey will know what its owner wants when it hears these orders, and it will complete the tasks.

As the monkeys get better at completing their tasks, they. learn new and more difficult ones.   55   

Can you imagine that in the future some disabled people keep monkeys as their pets and at the same time the moneys can help them to make their life easier?

Ⅱ. 听填信息

本题你将听到一段独白，读两遍。请根据所听内容，用单词或者短语完成下列各题。

Hello everyone, today I will talk about our reading habit. You know because of the. television and the Internet, many people spend less time reading, and they read just for fun. How can we do to help people love reading? Here is some advice to change the situation.

Firstly, you should choose good books to read. You can improve your knowledge by reading good books. People who read more usually have a better idea at life than those who do not read often.

Secondly, you can have fun and develop your imagination when you read. Children have very good imagination, so parents need to read lots of stories that feed their imagination.

Finally, no matter how old you are, it can help you have a better understanding of life and express your ideas to others in a simple and correct way.

So I suggest that you read more. Try to choose good books at the beginning, and then I'm sure that you will never stop reading.
