they found a mouse hole in a corner and used smoke to force the mice inside the hole to come out. a while later they indeed saw mice running out, one after another.then, everyone thought that all the mice had escaped. but just as they were just about to start to clean up, they saw two mice squeezing out at the exit of the hole. after some endeavor, the mice finally got out. the strange thing was that after they came out of the hole, they did not run away immediately. instead, one chased after the other near the exit of the hole. it seemed that one was trying to bite the tail of the other.everyone was puzzled, so they stepped closer to take a look. they realized that one of the mice was blind and could not see anything, and the other one was trying to allow the blind mouse to bite on his tail so he could pull the blind one with him to escape.after witnessing what happened, everyone was speechless and lost in thought. during meal time, the group of people sat down in a circle and started to chat about what happened to the two mice.one serious rome official said: “i think the relationship between those two mice was that of emperor and minister.” the others thought for a while and said: “that was why!” thus the rome official showed his arrogance .a smart israeli said: “i think the relationship between those two mice was husband and wife.” again the others thought for a while, and all felt it made sense; so they expressed agreement. therefore, the israelis countenance (脸色,面色)showed self-satisfaction.a chinese, who was accustomed to the firm tradition of loyalty to parents, said: “i think the relationship between those two mice was that of mother and son.” once again the others thought for a while, and felt this was more reasonable. so they expressed agreement yet another time. therefore, the face of the chinese showed professional modesty.at that moment, one pure-minded samaritan(撒玛利亚人) who was squatted (蹲)on the ground resting his chin in his hands, bewilderedly (为难地)looked at other people, and asked: “why did those two mice have to have a certain relationship?”suddenly, the atmosphere froze. then the group looked back at the samaritan and remained speechless. the rome official, the israeli and the chinese who had spoken earlier all lowered their heads in shame, and did not dare to respond.in fact, the true love is not established on benefit, friendship and loyalty or blood relationship. instead, it is based on no relationship.1. which of the following is the correct order to describe the story according to the passage?a. mice came out one after another forced by smoke.b. government officials found a mouse hole in an office.c. two more mice came out of the hole.d. one mouse tried to bite the tail of the other one near the exit of the hole.e. government officials were about to clean up.a.b-a-e-c-d b.b-a-c-d-e c.c-b-a-e-d d.c-a-d-b-e2. why didnt the two mice escape immediately?a. they didnt know about the danger.b. one was trying to bite the tail of the other.c. they couldnt find the right direction to run away.d. one was trying to help the other to escape together.3. what does the sentence “that was why!” mean in para.5?a. “that was just the reason why you think the two mice were emperor and minister?”b. “that was just the reason why the two mice ran after each other?”c. “that was just the reason why one mouse helped the other to escape from the hole!”d. “that was just the reason why we should believe your words?”4. why did they lower their heads in shame according to the passage?a. they did not dare to answer.b. they failed to analyze the relationship between the mice.c. they regretted driving a poor blind mouse away.d. they did not express themselves much better.byou may not pay much attention to your daily elevator ride. many of us use a lift several times during the day without really thinking about it. but lee gray, phd, of the university of north carolina, us, has made it his business to examine this overlooked form of public transport. he is known as the “elevator guy”. “the lift becomes this interesting social space where etiquette (礼仪) is sort of odd (奇怪的),” gray told the bbc. “they (elevators) are socially very interesting but often very awkward places.” we walk in and usually turn around to face the door. if someone else comes in, we may have to move. and here, according to gray, lift users unthinkingly go through a set pattern of movements. he told the bbc what he had observed. he explained that when you are the only one inside a lift, you can do whatever you want its your own little box. if there are two of you, you go into different corners, standing diagonally (对角线地) across from each other to create distance. when a third person enters, you will unconsciously form a triangle. and when there is a fourth person it becomes a square, with someone in every corner. a fifth person is probably going to have to stand in the middle. new entrants to the lift will need to size up the situation when the doors slide open and then act decisively. once in, for most people the rule is simple look down, or look at your phone. why are we so awkward in lifts? “you dont have enough space,” professor babette renneberg, a clinical psychologist at the free university of berlin, told the bbc. “usually when we meet other people we have about an arms length of distance between us. and thats not possible in most elevators.” in such a small, enclosed space it becomes very important to act in a way that cannot be construed (理解) as threatening or odd. “the easiest way to do this is to avoid eye contact,” she said.5.the main purpose of the article is to _.a. remind us to enjoy ourselves in the elevatorb. tell us some unwritten rules of elevator etiquettec. share an interesting but awkward elevator rided. analyze what makes people feel awkward in an elevator6. according to gray, when people enter an elevator, they usually _.a. turn around and greet one another b. look around or examine their phonec. make eye contact with those in the elevatord. try to keep a distance from other people7. which of the following describes how people usually stand when there are at least two people in an elevator?a. door b. door c. door d. doorthe point in the chart refers to one person.8. the underlined phrase “size up” in paragraph 7 is closest in meaning to _.a. judge b. ignore c. put up with d. make the best ofconce i invited a group of friends round to my house, telling them that i was going to record their speech. i said i was interested in their regional accents, and that it would take only a few minutes. thus, on one evening, three people turned up at my house and were shown into my front room. when they saw the room they were a bit alarmed, for it was laid out as a studio. in front of each easy chair there was a microphone at head height, with wires leading to a tape-recorder in the middle of the floor. i explained that all i wanted was for them to count from one to twenty. then we could relax and have a drink.i turned on the tape-recorder and each in turn seriously counted from one to twenty in their best accent. when it was over, i turned the tape-recorder off and brought round the drinks, and for the rest of the evening there was general cheerful conversationinterrupted only by the fact that i had to take a telephone call in another room, which unfortunately lasted some time.or at least that was how it would appear. for, of course, the microphones were not connected to the tape-recorder in the middle of the room at all but to another one, which was turning happily away in the kitchen. the participants, having seen the visible tape-recorder turned off, paid no more attention to the microphones which stayed in front of their chairs, only a few inches from their mouths, thus giving excellent sound quality. and my lengthy absence meant that i was able to obtain as natural a piece of conversation as it would be possible to find.i should add, perhaps, that i did tell my friends what had happened to them, after the event was over, and gave them the choice of destroying the tape. none of them wanted tothough for some years afterwards it always seemed to be my round when it came to the buying of drinks. linguistic research can be a very expensive business.9. the writer asked his friends to count from one to twenty because _. a. he wanted to record the numbers for his research b. he wanted to find out whether the tape recorder was workingc. he wanted to make his friends relax before real recording startedd. he wanted his friends to think that was all he wanted to record10. the writer went into another room to _.a. get a natural recording of his friends conversation b. stay away from too much drinking with his friendsc. bring a telephone into the front roomd. answer a long distance phone call 11. the writer turned off the tape-recorder because _. a. he had to answer a phone call b. he wanted his friends to enjoy some drinksc. he thought the tape-recorder might bother his friendsd. he wanted to make his friends believe he had finished the recordingd it was fifteen past nine as

though nobody knows why this is the case. the ridge（隆起）structure on a persons fingers does not change with growth and is not affected by surface injuries. burns, cuts and other damage to the outer part of the skin will be replaced in time by a new one, which bears a reproduction of the original pattern. 17 some criminals make use of this fact to remove their own finger-prints but this is a dangerous and rare step to take. finger-prints can be made very easily with printers ink. they can be recorded easily. 18 because of the simplicity and economy of this system, finger-prints have often been used as a method of solving criminal case. a suspected man may deny a charge but this may be in vain. 19 . when a suspect leaves finger-prints behind at the scene of a crime, they are difficult to detect with the naked eye. 20 some of the marks found are incomplete but identification is possible if a print of a quarter of an inch square can be obtained.a. special techniques are used to
