For me, fantasy is more than that. It makes people think that maybe the world can be different，that maybe in the past and in the future, they were or will be someone like that princess or prince who every one of us had dreamed of; and it makes that the world where we live，is not as boring as we thought. Many writers choose fantasy for their stories. If we read fantasy stories, maybe well see that they are made for little children. But theyre not. The message of romance and love in them is not being understood by most of children that read them. They like the stories, but they dont catch the real message that the stories give. If we read fantasy books, or watch fantasy movies, we can get the message and tell it to our families.One thing that fantasy stories have，is the magic that makes everyone go into the story. You can imagine how that princess looks like or what is the color of the big castle. When we read these stories we use our imagination，not like while we are watching usual programs on TV. One kind of fantasy is science fiction. For me its very interesting，because with science fiction we see all different thoughts of people about the future and that kind of things. Sometimes, we should think in fantasy and all the happiness it gives to everyone. If we do it constantly our world could have，every day，a bit more happiness. 1In the authors opinion，fantasy is _.A. boring rather than interestingB. only a storyC. never more than a storyD. more than a story答案：D细节理解题。由第一段第一、二句“For many people, fantasy isnt more than a story about a princess.For me，fantasy is more than that.”可知，作者认为，fantasy不仅仅是一篇故事。2The stories in fantasy _.A. will happen in the futureB. happened in the pastC. only happen in another worldD. may not happen in reality答案：D细节理解题。由第一段第三句“It makes people think that.”可知D项正确。A、B、C三项均表述片面。3We can infer from the passage that _.A. its easy to write fantasy storiesB. fantasy is intended for children onlyC. fantasy stories can also interest adultsD. parents should keep their children from fantasy stories答案：C推理判断题。由第三段第一句“One thing that fantasy stories have.”可知，fantasy stories能“makes everyone go into the story”，当然包括adults (成年人)了。4Which of the following may be the authors favorite?A.

For some, an animal provides more comfort than a husband/wife. A 2011 study by Karen Allen of the State University of New York measured stress (紧张) levels and blood pressure in peoplehalf of them pet ownerswhile they performed 5 minutes of mental arithmetic (算术) or held a hand in ice water. Subjects completed the tasks alone, with a husband/wife, a close friend or with a pet. People with pets did it best. Those tested with their animal friends had smaller change in blood pressure and returned most quickly to baseline heart rates. With pets in the room, people also made fewer math mistakes than when doing in front of other companions. It seems people feel more relaxed (放松) around pets, says Allen, who thinks it may be because pets dont judge.A study reported last fall suggests that having a pet dog not only raises your spirits but may also have an effect on your eating habits. Researchers at Northwestern Memorial Hospital spent a year studying 36 fat people and their equally fat dogs on dietandexercise programs; a separate group of 56 people without pets were put on a diet program. On average, people lost about 11 pounds, or 5% of their body weight. Their dogs did even better, losing an average of 12 pounds, more than 15% of their body weight. Dog owners didnt lose any more weight than those without dogs but, say researchers, got more exercise overallmostly with their dogsand found it worth doing.5What does the text mainly discuss?AWhat pets bring to their owners.BHow pets help people calm down.CPeoples opinions of keeping pets.DPets value in medical research.答案：A语篇解读题。根据文章首段可知，文章主要介绍了养宠物给人们带来的益处。6We learn from the text that a person with heart disease has a better chance of getting well if _.Ahe has a pet companionBhe has less stress of workChe often does mental arithmeticDhe is taken care of by his family答案：A推理判断题。根据“but many studies have shown that the com
