25、;  Since 1984，Philadelphia has been cleaning up its act.One by one，graffiticovered walls are being changed into outdoorart.So far，more than 1,800 murals（壁畫）have been painted.Philadelphia now has more murals than any other American city.     The walls that were once ugly with graf

26、fiti（涂鴉）are now covered with beautiful pictures of historical heroes and modern art，thanks to the Mural Arts Program（MAP）Its work makes schools and public places attractive，and its citizens very proud.The program began as part of Philadelphia's AntiGraffiti Network.Jane Golden is the MAP's a

27、rtistic director.“When people ask me what our program is about，”she says, “I answer them with one word：hope.”Each year，the MAP offers youth art programs and workshops.Some onetime graffiti writers even help paint MAP murals.    The MAP's work，says Golden，is all about developing a

28、sense of community（社區(qū)）When a neighborhood requests a mural，the MAP works with the people there to develop a message.Some messages have been “Safe Streets，”“Love and Care，”and “Peace Walk.”    The MAP receives up to 50 requests for murals each week.Last year，the workers painted 140 mur

32、60;       BDangerous.CExperimental.         DSuccessful.2、(6分)    For those who study the development of intelligence（智力） in the animal world，selfawareness is an important measurement.An animal that is aware（意識） of

33、itself has a high level of intelligence.     Awareness can be tested by studying whether the animal recognizes itself in the mirror，that is，its own reflected image（反射出的影像）Many animals fail this exercise bitterly，paying very little attention to the reflected image.Only humans，and some

34、intelligent animals like apes and dolphins，have been shown to recognize that the image in the mirror is of themselves.    Now another animal has joined the club.In the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences，researchers report that an Asian elephant has passed the mirror selfr

35、eflection test.    “We thought that elephants were the next important animal，” said Diana Reiss of the Wildlife Conservation Society，an author of the study with Joshua M. Plotnik and Fans B. M. de Waal of Emory University.With their large brains，Reiss said，elephants “seemed like cousi

36、ns to apes and dolphins.”    The researchers tested Happy，Maxine and Patty，three elephants at the Bronx Zoo.They put an 8footsquare mirror on a wall of the animals' play area （out of the sight of zoo visitors） and recorded what happened with cameras，including one built in the mirr

37、or.    The elephants used their long noses to find what was behind it，and to examine parts of their bodies.    Of the three，Happy then passed the test，in which a clear mark was painted on one side of her face.She could tell the mark was there by looking in the mirror，an

38、d she used the mirror to touch the mark with her long nose.    Diana Reiss said，“We knew elephants were intelligent，but now we can talk about their intelligence in a better way.”（1）What can mirror tests tell us about animals?AWhether they have large brains.BWhether they have selfaware

39、ness.CWhether they enjoy outdoor exercises.DWhether they enjoy playing with mirrors.（2）Why does the author mention apes and dolphins in the text?AThey are most familiar to readers.BThey are big favorites with zoo visitors.CThey are included in the study by Reiss.DThey are already known to be intelli

48、”saddened me.I thought he was saying “we're kind of pleased you decided to join us although I wish we had hired someone else.”Then I discovered that in American English “quite” sometimes means “very”,while in British English it means “fairly”.    So the first lesson about working

49、in other countries is to learn the language and by that I don't just mean the words people speak.It is body language，dress，manners，ideas and so on.The way people do things highlights many of the differences we see between cultures（文化）    Some of these differences may be only on th

50、e surfacedress，food and hours of workwhile others may be deeper and take longer to deal with.Mostly，it is just a question of getting used to the differences and accepting them，like the climate（氣候），while getting on with business.    Some of the differences may be an improvement.People

51、are more polite；the service is better；you ask for something to be done and it happens without having to ask again.However，other differences can be troubling，like punctuality（準時）If you invite people to a party at 7 o'clock your guests will consider it polite to turn up exactly on time in Germany，

52、five minutes early in the American Midwest，an hour early in Japan,15 minutes afterwards in the UK，up to an hour afterwards in Italy and some time in the evening in Greece.I prefer not to use the word “l(fā)ate” because there is nothing wrong with the times people arrive.It is simply the accepted thing t

58、 really happen.” Present in the audience（觀眾） that day were：her mother and father，older brother，her friends，and her dance teacher.    Understanding why members of her family and her friends would be there，AT asked why her dance teacher had traveled so far to see her compete（比賽）“She'
