modern-day love story of a man seeing the girl of his dreams across a new york subway train and tracking her down over the internet has failed to have a fairytale ending with the relationship over.for web designer patrick moberg, then 21, from brooklyn, it was love at first sight when he saw a woman on a manthttan train last november. but he lost her in the crowd so he set up a website with a sketch(素描)picture to find herwww.n.unbelievably in a city of 8 million people, it only took moberg 48 hours to find the woman, with his phone ringing non-stop and email box overflowing. new yorkers took pity on the subway romeo and joined his hunt.the mysterious girl was named as camille hayton, from melbourne, australia, who was working at the magazine black book and also lived in brooklyn. one of her friends saw the sketched picture on the web site and recognized her.but after finding each other, appearing on tv and getting international press, the couple took their romance out of the public eye, with moberg closing down the web site and with both refusing to make any more commentsuntil now.hayton told australian newspaper the sunday telegraph that she dated moberg for about two months but it just didnt work out.“i say we dated for a while but now were just friends,” hayton, now 23, told the newspaper. hayton said she is still recognized about three times a week on the streets of manhattan as “that girl” and the question is always the same: “so what happened?”“i think the situation was so intense that it linked us,” she said, adding, “it linked us in a way that you could mistake, i guess, for being more romantic than it was. i dont know. but i wanted to give it a go so didnt wonder what if, what if?”hayton told the sunday telegraph that she is enjoying single life in new york, keeping busy with acting classes, working in two clothing stores. last week she had a small role as a waitress in the long-running daytime soap as the world turns.“i just cant believe it happened. it feels like a long time ago,” said hayton. moberg, however, was still refusing to comment on the relationship.51after moborg lost the girl in the crowd he set up a website with .a. a pretty notice to find her b. an inspiring story to move herc. an exciting program to attract her d. a rough drawing to discover her 52moberg found the girl in a short time because .a. he phoned everybody in the city b. he got help from the net citizens c. he continued his hunt day and night d. he e-mailed everybody in the city53what has happened to hayton after the subway romance?a. she still gets noticed in the streets in new york. b. she has become a journalist in australia.c. she has become a superstar in the city.d. she is out of work and is looking for a new job.54the best title for this passage may be .a. nya romantic city for the young couple b. ny subway romance causes debatec. ny subway romance hits end d. nya heartbreaking city for the young couple byou wake up in the morning. the day is beautiful and the plans for the day are what you have been looking forward to for a long time. then the telephone rings, you say hello, and the drama starts. the person on the other end has a depressing tone in his voice as he starts to tell you how terrible his morning is and that there is nothing to look forward to. you are still in a wonderful mood? impossible!communicating with negative people can wash out your happiness. it may not change what you think, but communicating long enough with them will make you feel depressed for a moment or a long time. life brings ups and downs, but some people are stuck in the wrong idea that life has no happiness to offer. they only feel glad when they make others feel bad. no wonder they can hardly win others pity or respect. when you communicate with positive people, your spirit stays happy and therefore more positive things are attracted. when the dagger（匕首）of a negative person is put in you, you feel the heavy feeling that all in all, brings you down. sometimes we have no choice but to communicate with negative people. this could be a co-worker, or a relative. in this case, say what needs to be said as little as possible. sometimes it feels good to let out your anger back to the negative person, but all this is to lower you to that same negative level and they wont feel ashamed of themselves about that.negativity often affects happiness without even being realized. the negative words of another at the start of the day can cling to（附着）you throughout the rest of your day, which makes you feel bad and steals your happiness. life is too short to feel negative. stay positive and avoid negativity as much as possible. 55. the purpose of the first paragraph is to _. a. introduce a topic b. make a comparisonc. offer an evidence d. describe a daily scene56. some negative people base their happiness on _.a. other peoples pity for them b. other peoples respect for themc. making other people unhappy d. building up a positive attitude57. according to the passage, to reduce negative peoples influence on us, we are advised to . a. show our dissatisfaction to negative people b. change negative peoples attitudes to lifec. make negative people feel ashamed of themselves d. communicate with negative people as little as possible 58. what is the authors attitude towards negative people?a. favorable. b. critical. c. optimistic. d. supportive. ci am one of those people who are terrible at saying noi take on too many projects at once, and spend too much of my time doing things id rather not be doingi get work done, but its not always the best i can do, or the best way i could spend my timethats why my newest goal, both as a professional and a person, is to be a quitterbeing a quitter isnt being someone who gives up, who doesnt see important things through to the endi am eager to be the opposite of thatthe quitter i want to be is someone who gets out when theres no value in what hes doing, or when that value comes at the expense of something more importanta friend of mine once told me, i knew i was an adult when i could stop reading a book, even after getting 500 pages into it strange though it sounds, we all tend to do thiswe get involved in something, realize we dont want to be a part of it, but keep on goingwe say well, ive already invested so much time in this, i might as well stick it outi propose the opposite: quit as often as possible, regardless of project status or time investedif youre reading a book, and dont like it, stop readingcut your losses, realize that the smartest thing to do is to stop before your losses grow even more, and quitinstead of reading an entire book you hate, read half of a bad one and half of a good oneisnt that a better use of your time?step back for a secondlets learn how to say no at the beginning, or in the middle, and free up more of our time to do the things wed like to be doing, and the things actually worth doing saying no is hard, and admitting a mistaken yes is even harderif we do both, well start to make sure that were spending our time creating value, rather than increasing our losseslets be quitters together59the reason why the author wants to be a quitter is that he _ahopes to improve his personalitybwishes to have more time for relaxationchas found it hard to do several things at one timedexpects to make more efficient use of his time60in what circumstances does the author suggest quitting is a good idea?awhen you realize what you are doing is not worth the timebwhen you know a task cannot be finishedcwhen you meet with difficulties along the way in your lifedwhen you feel tired and need a rest61if you stop reading a book you hate, the author might think that _ayou should finish a book that you have startedbits a pity that you have wasted so much timecyou are wise to cut your lossesdyou should regret choosing the wrong book62the message the author tries to deliver is to _acreate more value blive your life to the fullestclearn to say no dstop doing many things at oncedthere is a lot of talk these days about how kids should be interested in science. heres an area of
