19、was lifting. He was just able to make out the heavier masses that eventually appeared as the familiar trees that lined the road at the base of the hill. The upper reaches of the sky showed lighter shades of gray. Dave got out of bed quietly and dressed quickly. He mixed a spoonful of instant chocola
20、te into a glass of cold water, and his impatience forced him to finish the drink in gulps. As he walked down toward the lake. Dave paused to reach for the fishing pole and gear box on the bench where he had left them the night before. By the time where he reached the small boat, a thick white mist（雾
21、气）had spread over the surface of the water. He stepped into the boat, sat down, and rowed out of the weed beds that lined the edge of the shore. The outer fringe（边缘）of the lake disappeared as the boat moved f orward noiselessly. All he could see was the enveloping whiteness. He could not tell where
22、the boat and the surrounding air met the surface of the lake. Dave rowed steadily ahead, relying of a mental picture of the surroundings. Then the mist began to rise, slowly It soon rested inches above the still surface of the lake. The heavy silence was now being broken by the fish breaking through
23、 the surface as they leaped out of the water for low-flying insects. The magic time had arrived. Dave raised his pole. Davn was broken. He was excited with expectancy. 39.

26、l-born bosses. They have a strong need to make decisions, manage their environment, and lead rather than follow. Stephen Jackson, a Year One student, “operates under the theory of whats mine is mine and whats yours is mine,” says his mother. “The other day I bought two new Star Wa rs light sabers（剑）
27、 。 Later, I saw Stephen with the two new ones while his brogher was using the beat-up ones.” “Examine the extended family, and youll probably find a bos sy grandparent, aunt, uncle or cousin in every generation. Itt an inheritable trait,” says Russell Barkley, a professor at the Medical University o
28、f South Carolina. Other children who may not be particularly bossy can bradually gain dominance（ 支配地位） when they sense their parents are weak, hesitant, or in disagreement with each other. Whether its inborn nature or developed character at work, t oo much control in the hands at the young isnt heal
29、thy for children or the family , Fear is at the root of a lot of bossy behavior, says family psychologist John Taylor. Children, he says in his book From Defiance to Cooperation, “have secret feelings of weakness” and “a desire to feel safe.” Its the parents role to provide that protection. When a “
30、boss child” doesnt learn limits at home, the stage is set for a host of troubles outside the family. The overly willful and unbending child may have trouble obeying teachers or coaches, for example, or trouble keeping friends. It can be pretty lonely as the top dog if no one likes your bossy ways. “
31、I see more and more parents giving up their power,” says Ba rkley, who has studied bossy behavior for more than 30 years. “They bend too f ar because they dont want to be as strict as their own parents were. But they also feel less confident about their parenting skills. Their kids, in turn, feel mo
32、re anxious.” 43. Bossy children like Stephen Jackson . A. make good decisions B. show self-centeredness C. lack care from others D. have little sense of fear 44.

35、ely old people to determine whether they can improve the quality of life for humans. Alan Beck, an expert in human-animal relationship, and Nancy Edwards, a professor of nursing, are leading the animal-assisted study concerning the influence of robotic dogs on old peoples depression, physical activi
36、ty, and lefe satisfaction. “No one will argue that an older person is better off being more active, challenged, or stimulated（刺激）,”Edwards poin ts out. “The p roblem is how we promote（使成为现 实）that,especially for those without riends or help. A robotic dog could be a solution.” In the study, the robot
37、, called AIBO, is placed for six weeks in the houses of some old people who live alone. Before placing AIBO in the home, researchers will collect baseline data for six weeks. These old people will keep a diary to note their feelings and activity before and after AIBO. Then, the researchers will revi
38、ew the data to determine if it has inspired any changes in the life of its owner. “ I talk to him all the time, and he responds to my voice, ” says a seventy-year-old lady, “When Im watching TV, hell stay in my arms until he wants down. He has a mind of his own.” The AIBOs respond to certain orders.
39、 The researchers say they have some advantages over live dogs, especially for old people. Often the elderly are disabled and cannot care for an animal by walking it or playing with it. A robotic dog removes exercise and feeding concerns. “At the beginning, it was believed that no one would relate to
40、 the robotic dog, because it was metal and not furry.” Beck says. “But its amazi ng how quickly we have given up that belief.” “Hopefully, down the road, these robotic pets could become a mo re-valuable health helper. They will record their masters blood pressure, oxygen levels. Or heart rhythms. AS
41、IBOs may even one day have games that can help stimulate older peoples minds.” 48. The purpose of Beck and Edwards study is to . A. understand human-animal relationship B. make lonely old peoples life better C. find the causes of old peoples loneliness D. promote the animal-assisted research 49. In
42、the research, the old people are asked to . A. note the activities of AIBOs B. keep AIBOs at home for 12 weeks C. record their feelings and activity D. analyze the collected information 50. What is the advantage of AIBO over live dogs? A. It is easier to keep at home. B. It can help the disabled peo
43、ple. C. It responds to all the human orders. D. It can watch TV with its owner. 51. The author seems to suggest that the future robotic dogs may . A. cure certain diseases B. keep old people active C. change peoples beliefs D. look more like real gods E Attitubde is an internal（内在的） state that influ
44、ences the choices of personal action made by the individual（个人）. Some researcher s consider that attitudes come from defferences between beliefs and ideas; others believe that attitudes come from emotional states. Here, we focus on the effects of attitudes upon behavior, that is, upon the choices of
45、 action made by the individual. The kinds of actions taken by human beings are obviously influenced greatly by attitudes. Whether one listens to classical music or rock, whether one obeys the speed limit while driving, whether one encourages ones husband or wife to express his or her own ideasall ar
46、e influenced by attitudes. These int ernal states are acquired（获得） throughout life from sitations one is faced with in the home, in the streets, and in the school. Of course, the course of action chosen by an individual in any situation will be largely determined by the particulars of that situation. An individual who has a strong attitude of obeying laws may drive too fa
