But touching things can help you to see them better. Your eyes can tell you that a glass ball is round. But by holding it in your hands, you can feel how smooth and cool the ball is. You can feel how heavy the glass is. When you feel all these about the ball, you really see it. With your skin (皮肤), you can feel better. For example, your fingers can tell the difference between two coins in your pocket. You can feel a little drop of water on the back of your hand, too. You can even feel sounds against your skin. Have you ever wanted to know why some people like very loud music? They must like to feel the sounds of music.All children soon learn what “Dont touch!” means. They hear it often. Yet most of us keep on touching things as we grow up. In shops, we touch things we might buy: food, clothes. To see something well, we have to touch it. The bottoms of our feet can feel things, too. You know this when you walk on warm sand, cool grass or a hard floor. All feel different under your feet. There are ways of learning to see well by feeling. One way is to close your eyes and try to feel everything that is touching your skin. Feel the shoes on your feet, the clothes on your body, the air on your skin. At first, it is not easy to feel these things. You are too used to them! Most museums are just for looking. But today some museums have some things to touch. Their signs say, “Do touch!” There you can feel everything on show. If you want to see better, reach out and touch. Then you will really see! 1. By touching things _.

B Odland remembers like it was yesterday working in an expensive French restaurant in Denver. The ice cream he was serving fell onto the white dress of a rich and important woman. Thirty years have passed, but Odland can not get the memory out of his mind, nor the womans kind reaction. She was shocked, regained calmness and, in a kind voice, told the young Odland. “It is OK. It wasnt your fault.” When she left the restaurant, she also left the future Fortune 500 CEO with a life lesson: You can tell a lot about a person by the way he or she treats the waiter. Odland isnt the only CEO to have made this discovery. Instead, it seems to be one of those few laws of the land that every CEO learns on the way up. Its hard to get a dozen CEOs to agree about anything , but most agree with the Waiter Rule. They say how others treat the CEO says nothing. But how others treat the waiter is like a window into the soul. Watch out for anyone who pulls out the power card to say something like, “I could buy this place and fire you,” or “I know the owner and I could have you fired.” Those who say such things have shown more about their character than about their wealth and power. The CEO who came up with it, or at least first wrote it down, is Raytheon CEO Bill Swanson. He wrote a best-selling book called Swansons Unwritten Rules of Management. “A person who is nice to you but rude to the waiter, or to others, is not a nice person,” Swanson says. “I will never offer a job to the person who is sweet to the boss but turns rude to someone cleaning the tables.”5. What happened after Odland dropped the ice cream onto the womans dress? A. The woman forted him. B. He was blamed.C. He was fired. D. The woman left the restaurant at once.6. Odland learned one of his life lessons from _. A. an article in Fortune B. the advice given by the CEOs C. his experience as a waiter D. an interesting best-selling book7. According to the text, most CEOs have the same opinion about _. A. Fortune 500 panies B. the Management Rules C. Swansons book D. the Waiter Rule8. From the text we can learn that _. A. one should be nicer to important people B. CEOs often show their power before others C. one should respect others no matter who they areD. CEOs often have meals in expensive restaurantsC If you like traveling, you can go to the following cities.Marrakech, MoroccoThe city is known as the “red city” for its rose-colored buildings.

I cant find blue foodI cant find the flavor of blue! I mean yellow is lemon; orange is orange and red is cherry. Where is the blue food? ” Well, Carlin pretty much has it righttheres not no blue food, but theres certainly not a lot of it. Fresh-picked blueberries are blue, though they bee purple when they are turned into jam. The blue in blueberrieslike the purple in grapes and the red in tomatoesis found in nature. But it isnt a hot color for food. People dont seem to prefer blue food. Some diet programs even suggest that those determined to lose weight should make their food blue. Eating, in part, begins with our eyes. Charles Spencean experimental psychologist from Oxford Universitypoints out that color can change our taste experience. monly, we consider red-colored foods up to 20% sweeter than they actually are; and green foods as being more sour. Spence suggests: human expectations may be influenced by our long history of watching - green fruits can bee sweets they grow up and turn red.But what about blue? Except blueberries, much of the blue food we see these days is dyed blue artificially. Food producers argue that artificial color doesnt do much harm to health. A lot of research shows that some physical problems of kids are related to food dyeswhile other studies show no effects at all. Blue birthday cake or even blue-dyed chicken can be served on the dinner table. So what?12. George Carlins words are placed at the beginning of the passage to _.
