careful analysis would produce three possibilities: 1. the girl should refuse to take a pebble.2. the girl should know that there were two black pebbles in the bag and expose the money-lender as a cheat.3. the girl should pick a black pebble and sacrifice herself in order to save her father from his debt and imprisonment.the above story is used with the hope that it will make us appreciate the difference between lateral (横向的)and logical thinking. read onthe girl put her hand into the moneybag and drew out a pebble. without looking at it, she fumbled and let it fall onto the pebble-strewn pathwhere it immediately became lost among all the other pebbles. “oh, how clumsy of me!” she said. “but never mind, if you look into the bag for the one that is left, you will be able to tell which pebble i picked.” since the remaining pebble is black, it must be assumed that she had picked the white one. and since the moneylender dared not admit his dishonesty, the girl changed what seemed an impossible situation into an extremely advantageous one.55. the underlined word “forgo” in paragraph 2 may mean _.a. pay offb. run outc. take over d. give up56. which of the following indicates lateral thinking?a. the girl refused to take a pebble and fled at once.b. the girl exposed the cheat and found another way.c. the girl picked one pebbles and made it disappear.d. the girl picked a black pebble and accepted the result.57. it can be inferred from the passage that _. a. the girl dropped the pebble onto the path on purposeb. the girl dropped the pebble onto the path by accidentc. the girl didnt know there were two black pebbles in the bagd. the girl replaced a black pebble in the bag58. what lesson can we learn from the story?

he asked. jiang also accused the anti-gm lobby of repeatedly using outdated or inaccurate data to support an incorrect stance.chen yunfa, an independent researcher into the yangtze river delta economy, recently wrote a commentary on the internet news portal eastday in which he criticized the actions of the 61 scientists, saying they had gone beyond their proper duty. he suggested that large multinational corporations might be behind the letter and similar incidents, prompted by a desire to freeze chinas patent hybrid rice technology out of the market.to support his contentions, chen said that gm rice, first produced by scientists in the us, still hasnt gained official approval from the us government. however, the us authorities have actually granted licenses to six varieties of gm rice. the commercial planting of two varieties - anti-herbicide (bar) transgenic rice ll rice 06 and ll rice 62 - produced by the french pharmaceutical company sanofi-aventis, was approved in 1999 and a license for cultivation for edible use was granted in 2000.the public outcry for gm labeling and boycotting has hindered the advancement of the technology. concern about gm foods has been fueled by studies like the one published by french professor gilles-eric sralini in september 2012. sralini claimed that his research involving rats proved that the gm corn fed to them caused tumor growth. furthermore, there is growing concern that the pesticides(杀虫剂) used on gmos（转基因作物）are contributing to the decline of the worlds honey bee population, leading to honey bee deaths by infecting the brains of the insects with toxins. therefore, some experts recommend the labeling of non-gm foods so that consumers can make that decision without a regulatory burden being placed on gmos.however, we should be cautious about anything that may risk humans life. only time will tell.59. why did more than 300 people enjoy porridge made from genetically modified food? a. to show evidence tha
