Thomas MacaulaySome thirty years ago, I was studying in a public school in New York. One day, Mrs Nanette ONeil gave an arithmetic _ 36 _ to our class. When the papers were _ 37 _ she discovered that twelve boys had made the same mistakes throughout the test.There is really nothing new about _38_ in the exams. Perhaps that was why Mrs ONeill _39_ even say a word about it. She only asked the twelve boys to _40_ after class. I was one of the twelve.Mrs ONeill asked _41_ questions, and she didnt _42_ us either. Macaulay, she wrote on the blackboard the _43_ words by Thomas Macaulay. She then ordered us to _44_ these words into our exercise-books one hundred times.I dont _45_ about the other eleven boys. Speaking for myself I can say: it was the most important single _46_ of my life. Thirty years after being introduced to Macaulays words, they _47_ seem to me the best yard-stick(准绳), because they give us a _48_ to measure ourselves rather than others. _49_ of us are asked to make _50_ decisions about nations going to war or armies going to battle. But all of us are called _51_ daily to make a great many personal decisions. _52_ the wallet, found in the street, be put into a pocket or turned over to the policeman? Should the _53_ change received at the store be forgotten or _54_? Nobody will know except _55_. But you have to live with yourself, and it is always better to live with someone you respect.36.

We all keep hearing that trains are slow, that they lose money, that theyre dying. But this is far from the truth. In these days of expensive oil, the railways have become highly competitive with motorcars and planes. If you want to carry people or goods from place to place, theyre cheaper than planes. And they have much in common with planes. A plane goes in a strange line and so does a railway. What is more, it takes you from the heart of a city into the heart of another. It doesnt leave you as a plane does, miles and miles from the city center. It doesnt hold you up as a car does, in endless traffic jams. And asingle train can carry goods which no plane or motorcar could ever do.Far from being dead, the railways are very much alive. Modern railway lines giveyou a smooth , untroubled journey. Where else can you eat well, sleep in comfort, feel safe and enjoy the scene while you are traveling at speed at the same time? And we are only at the beginning. For we have just entered the age of super-fast trains, traveling at 150 miles an hour and more. Soon we will be wondering why we spent so much on motorways we cant use because we have not enough moneyto buy the oil and planes we cant fly in for the same reason.56. Some people think the railways are dead for many reasons except that_.A. planes and motorcars have taken the place of trainsB. oil is expensive todayC. trains are slowD. railways lose money 57. The writers idea seems to be that _.A. we can do without railwaysB. trains have much in common with motorcars and planesC. motorcars and planes are not as good as trainsD. trains are as good as motorcars and planes 58. According to the writer, which of the following is NOT true?A. It is cheaper to travel by train than by plane.B. The railway station is usually at the center of a city.C. When you get off the plane you will find yourself right in the city center.D. No motorcar or plane can carry as many goods as a train does.

I felt great and people kept saying how good I looked.But Christmas came and I started to slip back into my old eating habits. I toldmyself Id lose the weight at slimming classes in the new yearbut it didnthappen. Instead of losing the pounds, I put them on. Id lost willpower and tried to believe that the old bage of fish and chips didnt make any difference butthe scales dont lie.Roz Juma:To be honest,I never weigh myself any more Ive leant to be happy with myself.It seemed to me that I would feel sorry about every spoonful of tasty food that passed my lips.My idea is simple.You shouldnt be too much thinking about food and dieting.Instead,you should get on with life and stop dreaming of a supper-thin body.This is obviously the size Im meant to be and,most of all, Im happy with it.Lesley Codwin:I was very happy about winning Young Silmmer of the Year.Id look in the mirrorunable to believe this slim lady was me!That might have been my problemperhaps from then on I didnt pay any attention to myself.Winning a national competition makes everything worse,though,becau-se you feel the eyes of the world are fixed upon you.I feel a complete failure because Ive put on weight again.Ros Langfod:Before moving in with my husband Gavin,Id always been about 110 pounds,but the pleasant housework went straight to my waist and I put on 15 pounds in a year.Every so often I try to go on a diet Im really good on a few days,then end uphaving the childrens leftovers or eating happily chocolatemy weakness.Id like to be slim,but right now my duty is the children and home.I might take more exercise when my kids are older.59.

Yao hasnt been chosen yet and it is unlikely that he will be any time soon.People in the Sharks front office earlier told members of the press that “it is not proper for Yao to attend the draft this year”because he has to represent Shanghai in the Ninth National Games.Even if Wang and Yao make it to the promised land of basketball at last,analystson both sides of the Pacific have said the NBA road will be a long one for bothof them.Besides needing to work on their upper body strength,Wang and Yao will also have to adapt（适应）to the speed,techniques and above all,culture of the NBA.63.
