26、A wagging(摇) tail is a form of dog communication. Dogs wag their tell us something about how they’re feeling.

There are probably few people who haven’t seen a dog wagging his tail, and most of the time it’s obvious what the dog is trying to tell you with this kind of body language. It is important, however, that you pay attention to how the dog is holding his tail when he’s wagging it.

Is it relaxed and moving back in forth? Is his body moving along with the wagging? Or is the tail high and moving quickly back and forth while the dog’s body remains fairly erect and stiff (竖直僵硬的)? Where the tail is and the way a dog holds his body while he’s wagging it can give you a clue about what he is trying to communicate.

Most people look at a dog with a wagging tail and assume he is happy. Most of the time this is true, but there are times when a dog wags his tail right before he becomes aggressive. If a dog is wagging his tail and the rest of his body seems relaxed or is moving along with the wagging, you are dealing with a happy and comfortable dog.

If a dog is holding his body erect and stiff while wagging his tail, however, he may be telling you that he’s feeling territorial or uncomfortable with something that is going on around him. In this case, the dog’s tail will be held high and moving back and forth rapidly. This discomfort can be a sign to attack.

This is one reason people sometimes report that a dog was wagging his tail right before he bit someone. So if you come across a dog you don’t know who is wagging his tail, check out what the rest of his body language is telling you before you approach.

【1】In what situation do we know a dog is happy?

A. When we have a close look at him.

B. When we try to communicate with him.

C. The dog wags his tail and his body remains relaxed.

D. The dog moves his body along and holds his tail high.

【2】A dog’s tail holding high and moving back and forth rapidly shows he may be ________.

A. aggressive   B. frightened   C. friendly   D. relaxed

【3】What are people expected to do when meeting a strange dog?

A. Train him to be friendly.   B. Judge him by his body language.

C. Ask the owner for help.   D. Approach him slowly.

【4】What is the best title of this passage?

A. Signs of a Dog’s Bites

B. A Special Communication

C. A Pet Dog — Human’s Friend

D. Dog Feeling Expression —Wagging Tail

29、   Malmon was a freshman at the University of Pennsylvania when she got a call from her mother that would change her life: Her fun, outgoing older brother, Brian, had taken his own life.

When Malmon returned to school after Brian’s funeral, she was still grieving. But when she looked for help on campus, there was no place to turn. “Back then,” says Malmon, “students weren’t encouraged to talk about their mental health. I started reflecting on the fact that there was an urgent need to get that conversation going.”

She was only 19 and had no experience with mental health issues, but that didn’t stop her from launching Open Minds at Penn. Now, 20 years later it is the largest young adult mental health organization in America, with more than 550 branches at high schools and colleges. “What I’m most inspired by is that my generation and the generations coming behind me are taking on mental health as a social justice issue,” says Malmon. “Open Minds is changing not only their campuses, it’s changing their families too.”

Open Minds’ peer-to-peer education techniques are more important than ever. The American College Health Association’s 2019 National College Health Assessment found that 45 percent of students reported feeling so depressed in the previous 12 months that it was difficult to function; 66 percent felt deep anxiety; and 13 percent seriously considered suicide—the act of killing oneself.

Malmon’s goal has always been to remind the public to pay attention to the language we use to talk about mental illness. The word “suicide” is an example. You don’t commit a heart attack or cancer, says Malmon. “Suicide is the only death where we use that word ‘commit,’” she says. “If we take that word out of our daily talk, we can make significant changes in how we think about suicide and people are brave to talk about it and reach out for the help they need as soon as they need it.”

【1】What contributed to Malmon launching Open Minds?

A.Her professor’s instruction. B.Her brother’s death.

C.Her desire for success. D.Her mother’s encouragement.

【2】What does the underlined word “grieving” in Paragraph 2 mean?

A.Feeling sad. B.Feeling ashamed.

C.Feeling shocked. D.Feeling awkward.

【3】What is Malmon’s attitude to the fact that “commit” and “suicide” are used together?

A.Positive B.Uncaring C.Favorable D.Disapproving
