13、hich had gone out. But the air was still full of smoke and fallen trees had blocked the track. Jack was just going to turn back when he saw something moving in the smoke. He waited. It was a girl on a horse, and she was riding towards him. "There ' s a badly burnt manon the farm,M the girl

15、he farm with Jack immediately.Joe Brook was unconscious when they reached him. They lifted him onto Jack ' s horse. The ride back to Borrogee was terrible. Cathy was so tired that Jack had to tie her to her pony. The pony was tired too, but its courage was astonishing. It followed Jack right to

Dr. Aiken studied a number of couples who had been married for at least twenty-five years. Each couple pr
21、ovided four photographs one photo of each partner at the time of their marriage and another photo of each partner twenty-five or more years later. All background was cut from the photos to remove any clues. The photos were then displayed in groups: a random grouping of the persons at the time of the
22、ir marriage and another random grouping of the same persons who took photographs later. Some testees were asked to pick out the partners. They failed totally with the first group. Their judgements were no better than chance. But with the photos taken twenty-five or more years after the marriage, the
23、 testees were quite successful with the most happily-married couples.Dr. Aiken believes there are several reasons why couples grow alike. One reason has something to do with imitation. One person tends to copy or do the same as someone else without knowing it. He says human begins to imitate the exp
24、ressions of the faces oftheir loved ones. " Another possible reason,n he says, “is the commonexperience of the couples.n There is a tendency for people who have the samelife experience to change their faces in similar ways. For example, if a couple have suffered from a lot of sad experiences, t
25、heir faces are likely to change in a similar way.21. Dr. Aiken cut the background from the photos for the purpose of .A. imitating the couples ' life B. grouping the couples againC. leaving no trace for the testees D. giving the testees more chances22. The underlined sentence “ Their judgements
26、were no better than chance ” implies that the testees.A. did a good job in making their choices.B. had difficulty in picking out the partnersC. had no chance to make the right judgementsD. did better with the first group than with the second23. The underlined word “ imitate ” (in Para. 2) has a simi
27、lar meaning to .A. copy B. change C. know D. suffer24. From the passage we can draw the conclusion thatA. couples who look alike can live longerB. most part ners have bee n proved to grow alikeC. the in flue nee betwee n partners can be quite stro ngD. happily-married couples are often richerthan ot
28、hers25. The main purpose of the passage is to.A. expla in why couples grow alike B. tell how couples like each otherC. discuss the function of marriage D. describe the life of happily married couplesPassage ThreeThe three biggest lies in America are: (1)“ The check is in the mail" , (2)" O
29、f course I 'I respect you in the morning ”and (3)“ It was a computer error.Of these three little white lies, the worst is the third.It rs the only one that can never be true. Today, if a bank st ate me nt cheats you out of $ 900 that way, you know what the c lerk is sure to say,n It was a comput
30、er error.n Nonsense. Th e computer is report ing nothing more tha n what the clerk type d in to it.The most annoying case of all is whe n the computerized cas hier in the grocery store shows that an item costs more tha n it actually does. If the innocent buyer points out the mistake, the checker, ba
31、gger, and man ager all come together and off er the familiar expla nati on:" It was a compute error.nIt wasn 't, of course that computerized cashier is really n othi ng more tha n an electric eve nt. The eye reads the Un ivers al Product Code chat bar of black and white lines in a corne r o
32、f the package and the n checks the code aga inst a price list stored in memory. If the price list is right, you' II be charged accurately.Grocery stores update the price list each day that is, somebody sits at a keyboard and types in the prices. If the pri ce they type in is too high, there are
33、only two expla nati ons: careless ness or disho nesty. But somehow“ a computer error ” is supposed to excuse everythi ng.One reas on we let people hide beh ind a computer is the com mon mispercepti on that huge, moder n computers are electric br ain with"artificial intelligenee." At some p
34、oint there might be a mach ine with in tellige nee but none exists today. The s martest computer on Earth right now is no more intelligent th an your average pen. At this point in the developme nt of comp uters, the only thing any machi ne can do is what a huma n has in structed it to do.26. Of the
35、three lies, the one about computer is the worst because the computer itself .A. says nonsense B. cheats customersC. cannot make the error D. does not admit its error27.

38、ld country guidebook the other day. It I isted all the tradesme n in each village, and it was impressiv e to see the past variety of services which were available on one ' s own doorstep in the late Victorian countryside.Nowadays a traveler in rural En gla nd might con elude that t he only villa
39、ge tradesmen still flourishing were either selli ng frozen food to the villagers or selling antiques to visito rs. Nevertheless, this would really be a false impression. On the surface, there has bee n a decli ne of village commerce, b ut its power is still remarkable.Our local grocer ' s shop,
40、for example, is actually expandin g in spite of the competiti on from supermarkets in the n eares t town. Women sensibly prefer to go there and exchange the Io cal n ews while doing their shopp ing, in stead of queu ing up at a supermarket. And the grocer knows well that pers onal servi ce has a con
41、 siderable cash value.His prices may be a bit higher than those in the town, but he will deliver anything at any time. His assista nts think n othi ng of bicycli ng dow n the village street in their lunch ho ur to take a piece of cheese to an old retired woma n who senther order by word of mouth wit
