into her office, the headmaster, mr. henry stopped her.“now,” he said, “i want you to tell me the truth, my dear.” “naturally,” said anna shortly, fearing that something terrible had happened. “i have had a most serious accusation（控告）made against you by mrs. bond.” “mrs. bond?” said anna, not understanding. janet bond was a quiet, little mouse of a child. as far as anna could remember she had never had cause to speak an angry word to the girl. “mrs. bond,” went on mr. henry, “tells me that you scolded her daughter yesterday afternoon.” “scolded?” cried anna. “i dont scold. at least not in school,” she added honestly. “mrs. bonds story is that janet was a little late back to school in the afternoon. she said that the child had to spend some time in the bathroom, which meant she set out from home a little late.” “just a minute,” said anna, beginning to understand. “she did come late, very late. i had marked her absent, of course. then she wandered in, when wed started our paper-cutting, and i believe i said she was a nuisance（讨厌的人）. she didnt appear to hear, and was certainly quite cheerful.” “ah, a nuisance.” mr. henry jumped on the word. “youre sure you only said a nuisance.” “i may not even have said that,” anna replied. “it was no more than slight displeasure that i felt and i certainly didnt scold.” “mrs. bond said that you called her child a blasted（该死的）nuisance. is that true?” “indeed it isnt,” said anna, “the child or the mother has made it up!” mr. henry was satisfied with annas explanation. “just as i thought, my dear, but of course i had to make sure.”56. when mr. henry stopped anna, he_.a.wanted to tell her a true story b. thought she had done something wrongc. had made up his mind to scold her d. made her feel worried at first57. mr. henry thought that_.a. janet had scolded anna b. mrs. bond had not told the truthc. anna would not tell the truth d. nna had scolded janet58. to call a child a nuisance is_.a.considered a serious accusation b. not considered serious by the teacher c. obviously upsetting for the child d. a sign of great anger59. mr. henry considered anna a_teacher.a. careless b. cruel c. trustworthy d.badb the “bystander apathy effect” was first studied by researchers in new york after neighbours ignored - and in some cases turned up the volume on their tvs - the cries of a woman as she was murdered (over a half-hour period). with regard to helping those in difficulty generally, they found that: (1) women are helped more than men;(2) men help more than women;(3) attractive women are helped more than unattractive women.other factors relate to the number of people in the area, whether the person is thought to be in trouble through their own fault, and whether a person sees himself as being able to help.according to adrian furnham, professor of university college, london, there are three reasons why we tend to stand by doing nothing:(1) “shifting of responsibility” - the more people there are, the less likely help is to be given. each person excuses himself by thinking someone else will help, so that the more “other people” there are, the greater the total shifting of responsibility.(2) “fear of making a mistake” - situations are often not clear. people think that those involved in an incident may know each other or it may be a joke, so a fear of embarrassment makes them keep themselves to themselves.(3) “fear of the consequences if attention is turned on you, and the person is violent.”laurie taylor, professor of sociology at london university, says: “in the experiments ive seen on intervention（介入）, much depends on the neighborhood or setting. there is a silence on public transport which is hard to break. we are embarrassed to draw attention to something that is happening, while in a football match, people get involved , and a fight would easily follow.”psychotherapist alan dupuy identifies the importance of the individual: “the british as a whole have some difficulty intervention, but there are exceptional individuals in every group who are prepared to intervene, regardless of their own safety. these would be people with a strong moral code or religious ideals.”60. which of the following statements is true according to the passage?a. criminals are more likely to harm women.b. people on a bus are more likely to stop a crime.c. religious people are more likely to look on.d. pretty women are more likely to be helped.61. which factor is not related with intervention according to the passage?a. sex.b. profession.c. nationality. d. setting.62. which phenomenon can be described as the “bystander apathy effect”?a. a man is more likely to help than a woman.b. in a football match, people get involved in a fight.c. seeing a murder, people feel sorry that it should have happened.d. on hearing a cry for help, people keep themselves to themselves.63. the author wrote this article _.a. to analyze the weakness of human natureb. to urge people to stand out when in needc. to criticize the selfishness of bystandersd. to explain why bystanders behave as they docnowadays, people have a heated discussion on whether the pressure on international sports players kills the essence (真谛) of sport the pursuit of personal excellence. children kick a football around for fun. when they get older and play for local school teams, they become competitive but they still enjoy playing. the individual representing his country cannot afford to think about enjoying himself; he has to think only about winning. he is responsible for the entire nations hopes, dreams and reputation.a good example is the football word cup. football is the worlds most important sport. winning the world cup is perhaps the summit of international sporting success. mention argentina (阿根廷) to someone and the chances are that hell think of football. in a sense, winning the world cup put argentina on the map.sports fans and supporters get quite irrational about the world cup. people in england felt that their country was somehow important after they won in 1966. last year thousands of scots sold their cars, and even their houses, and spent all their money traveling to argentina, where the finals were played.so, am i arguing that international competition kills the idea of sport? certainly not! do the argentineans really believe that because eleven of their men proved the most skillful at football, their nation is in every way better than all others? not really, but its nice to know that you won and that in one way at least your country is the best.64. according to the passage, if a sportsman only thinks about winning, he will_. .a. fail to succeed b. be successful c.lose enjoyment d. be unreasonable65. the main idea of the first paragraph is that _. . a. children take part in all kinds of sports because sports activities give them pleasure. b. competitions between different school teams make sports no longer a personal act for fun.c. some people believe that international competition makes sports a task, a responsibility, for the individuals.d. some people think international competition is in a way opposite to the pursuit of personal excellence.66. what does the speaker mean when he says “in a sense, winning the world cup put argentina on the map”?a. winning the world cup makes argentina a football power in the world.b. winning the world cup gives weight to argentinas position in the world.c. argentina is not important before it wins the world cup.d. argentina is world-famous for its football because of its obvious position on the map.67. the word “irrational” in the third paragraph means _. . a. passionate b. happy c. angry d. unreasonable dif english means endless new words and difficult grammar, you are wrong. havent you noticed that you have become more smarter since you started to learn a language?according to a new study by a british university, learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power. researchers found that learning other languages changes grey matter (中枢神经系统的灰质). this is the area of the brain which processes information. it is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles. the study also found the earlier people learn a second language, the greater the effect.a team of experts from london took a group of britons who only spoke english. they were compared with a group of “early bilinguals” (能说两种语言的人) who had learnt a second language before the age of five, as well as a number of later learners.scans showed that grey matter density (密度) in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without a second language. but the longer a person waited before mastering a new language, the smaller the difference. “our findings suggest that the structure of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language,” said the scientists. it means that the change itself increases the ability to learn. professor dylan vaughan jones of the university of walse has researched the link between bilingualism a
