although there was a good reason for sams a being lateserious illness at homehe decided that this by-now-familiar excuse wouldnt work any longer. his boss was probably already pacing up and down preparing a dismissal (解雇) speech.yes, the boss was. sam entered the office at 9:35. the place was as quiet as a locker room (更衣室); everyone was hard at work. sams boss came up to him. suddenly, sam forced a grin and stretched out his hand. “how do you do!” he said. “im sam maynard. im applying for a job,which, i understand, became available just 35 minutes ago. does the early bird get the worm?” the room exploded in laughter. the boss clamped off a smile and walked back to his office. sam maynard had saved his jobwith the only tool that could wina laugh. humor is a most effective, yet frequently neglected, means of handling the difficult situations in our lives. it can be used for patching up differences, apologizing, saying “no”, criticizing, getting the other fellow to do what you want without his losing face. for some jobs, its the only tool that can succeed. it is a way to discuss subjects so sensitive that serious dialog may start a quarrel. for example, many believe that comedians on television are doing more today for racial and religious tolerance than people in any other forum.64. why was sam late for his job?a. because he was ill. b. because he got up late.c.

findings add a fascinating new page to the epic（史诗）of the silk road, which spread far and wide in no time.the latest and most surprising discovery is pieces of silk found in the hair of an egyptian mummy from about l,000 bc, long before regular traffic on the silk road and at least one thousand years before silk was previously thought to be used in egypt. other research may extend human activity along this route back even further, perhaps a million years to the moving of human ancestors into eastern asia.the official origin of east-west trade along the road is usually placed in the late 2nct century bc when an agent of the chinese emperor wu-di returned from a dangerous secret mission（使命）across the desert into the remote high country of central asia. the agent, zhang qian, traveled as far as afghanistan and brought back knowledge of even more distant lands such as persia, syria and a place known as lijien, perhaps rome. historians have called this one of the most important journeys in ancient times. his journey opened the way for what have been thought to be the first indirect contacts between the ancient worlds two superpowers, china and rome. chinese silk, first traded to central asia for war horses, was soon finding its way to the markets of rome through a network of businessmen.but the new discoveries show that chinese silk apparently existed in the west long before the han emperor started organized trade over the silk road. the research could change thinking about the early history of world trade and provide insights（了解）into the mystery of just how and when europe first realized the glorious culture at the other end of eurasia.paragraph outlinesupporting details introduction new findings about the (71) of trade along the silk road are spread far and wide in no
