little story with you about something that happened when i was four. i remember it clearly. our loving family dog was nearing the end of his life. my father picked him up and put him in a little bed we had made for him. our dog, my companion, whom we had cared for, bit my father when he attempted to help him. how could he? why? i couldnt understand it. i didnt like him anymore. i hadnt thought about that story for a long time but something that happened last week brought it back to me. i went to speak with a friend. when i knocked on the door, i met in an instant an angry look and a few harsh(尖刻的)words. when the door was slammed(砰地关上)in my face, i stood there shocked, and in a rush, i was reminded of my dog bit my father 20 years ago or so. what brought that story back was that same feeling of betrayal. both stories taught me something the next day. you see, when i got up in the morning and was told my dog had died, it became clear to me that he must have been in great pain. for him to have bitten a family member, he could not have been himself. much the same for the other story when i learned that my friends wife had just left him. we are all beings of our environments, our opinions and feelings. and all of those things can cause you to say and do things that cant be understood by those who are not in the same situation with you. if you meet someone either behaving out of character or acting in a way that doesnt seem to fit the situation, put out your hand and be patient when you think it is least possible for him to do so. you may turn around a story that has a sad ending simply by your actions.56. the incident that happened when the author was four_.a. hurt the authors feeling deeplyb. has puzzled the author ever sincec. left a deep impression on the authord.

couldnt forgive the author59. what conclusion did the author get from the two stories?a. misunderstanding should be removed in time.b. sometimes one will be hurt without any reason.c. many people think more of themselves and less of others.d. many factors will affect ones behavior.60. whats the authors advice to us?a. help those in need. b. look before you leap.c. learn to understand others. d. tolerance is a kind of virtue.c cell phone use and texting are increasingly common, especially among teens. and that could be a problem. texting affects learning and performing on test, a new study finds. so a montana teen, colin decided to test that. they asked 47 classmates to take part in a two-part experiment. the goal was to test how well these students understood written material. each one had to read a paragraph or two about a certain topic, then answer questions about it. in the first part, the participants had 15 minutes to understand and then answer questions about six readings. throughout this test, they met no distractions. during a new set of readings, the brothers sent messages to the participants cell phones every 90 seconds. in each message, there were questions that required a reply. participants should have scored better on the second test because it was easier. in fact, they scored worse when distracted by messages. only a few students scored as well when replying to messages as they did when undistracted. but importantly, nobody performed better during the texting part. the brothers presented details of their findings at the intel international science and engineering fair. boys and girls scored equally poorly while texting, the brothers noticed. older participants didnt do any better than younger ones. and it didnt matter if a student thought he was good at multitasking. on average, the brothers found that even students who were confident of their abilities did just as poorly while texting. surprisingly, even though the students remembered less of what they read while texting, most of them answered questions in messages perfectly. “our teachers are very happy to see these results,” says coler. the teens new data strongly support their teachers opinion that texting while studying is a serious distraction.61. what did colter and colin want to test? a. cell phone use and texting are more common. b. teens should avoid cell phone use and texting. c. texting affects students performance on test. d. the effect of texting differs from person to person.62. what can we learn from the two-part experiment? a. the written material in the two parts was the same. b. participants in part 2 received more than one message. c. the time of the test in two parts was the same. d. all the participants were distracted by messages.63. the brothers findings were related to participants _. a. reading performance b. quality c. writing ability d. reading speed64. from the results of the experiment, we can find _.a. boys were better at multitasking than girlsb. the easier the tests were, the more mistakes were madec. nobody did good jobs in the two-part experimentd. some students test results were not affected by texting65. whats colters teachers attitude toward the results? a. surprised. b. worried. c. satisfied. d. serious.d rain and cold weather this summer saw honey yields from hives(巢)fall by almost three-quarters, the british beekeepers association(bbka)said today. the average crop per hive was down 72% compared to last year, with just 3.6kg (81b) of honey produced compared to an annual average, the annual honey survey by the bbka revealed. the survey of 2,712 beekeepers in england, northern ireland and wales found that 88% said this summers bad weather caused the descent in honey yields. the bad weather made it difficult for bees to excrete(排泄),which led to disease easily, and the bad weather also increased the risk of keeping bees for heavy rain caused the places which bees regularly visited to meet natural disasters. the bad weather also influenced the plants flowering which increased the cost of keeping bees. the bbka issued a midsummer warning to feed bees if necessary to avoid
