experience, the author learns that _aeverybody can have a happy life through effortsbevery day in our lives is worth cherishingcenjoying ourselves is the most important thing in our livesdeverybody will have some things left to do after his death44whats the best title for this passage?awhat is the meaningful life like bmy sister janc every day is a gift dthe most important time in your life bthe newspaper seller was a clean, neat man, of about forty with a rather serious, unsmiling face. he didnt speak much to the customers or to his helpers, but when he did he spoke slowly and quietly, as if to himself. he believed in efficiency, not conversation. and this was how the office workers, rushing to catch their trains, preferred it.it had been a good day. lunch-time had been warm and sunny, and many people had bought magazines to read outside with their sandwiches. now it was cold rainy, and people wanted an evening paper for a cheerless joyless journey ahead and a dull evening indoors.at 6:30, with the main rush over, he started to collect the money together and count it. then he left the stand and went home. it was the assistants turn this evening to look after it till eight oclock, when it would be packed away for the night. his large white mercedes was in the private car park of a large government building. hed parked there for six months, pretending to be part of a heating firm working in the building. they would find out about him soon, and hed have to park in a garage again, which was annoying. their charges were far too high. a couple of junior clerks, regular customers, happened to see him getting into his car. “must be a lot of money in papers, eh?” one of them shouted. he just smiled coldly in reply, and got into the car, placing the bags of money on the floor.he thought about the clerks on the way home. like the majority of his customers, despite their white shirts and dark suits, they probably made in a week as much as he could make in a good day.45it seems unlikely that the newspaper seller would be the sort of man who would _. abe a cheerful companion btry to cheat a customer ctrust his assistant much dearn a great deal of money46the assistants job that evening was to _. asell papers until 8 oclock bstart selling magazines at 8 oclock c. count the money taken that day dlock up the car park47if they realized that he was not a heating engineer he would have to _.apark his car in a government car park b pay to park his car in a garage clook for another free parking place dpretend he was a government employee48when the newspaper seller thought about the two clerks he decided they were _abadly dressed b. very well off cnot as rich as himself d. not as hardworking as himself cthey may be small and not able to speak, but babies are proving their amazing cleverness. scientists began finding infants skills are more than they are supposed to be._speaking of music, babies cant seem to resist it. not only are their ears turned to the beats, babies can actually dance to the music.to test babies dancing ability, the researchers played recordings of classical music, rhythmic beats and speech to infants, and recorded the results. they also invited professional dancers to analyze how well the babies matched their movements to the music. the babies moved their arms, hands, legs feet and heads in response to the music, much more than to the speech. the finding suggests this dancing ability is innate(与生俱来的) in humans, though the researchers arent sure why it becomes weaker later in their life.learning quickly while sleeping babies can learn even while asleep, according to a 2011 study. in experiment with 26 sleeping infants, each just 1 to 2 days old, scientists played a musical tone followed by a puff of air to their eyes 200 times over the course of a half hour. 124 electrodes(电极) stuck on the head and face of each baby recorded brain activity during the experiments. the babies rapidly learned to foretell a puff of air upon hearing the tone, showing a four-time increase on average in the chances of tightening their eyelids in response to the sound by the end of the experiments.as newborns spend most of their time asleep, this newfound ability might be crucial to rapidly adapting to the world around them and help to ensure their survival, researchers said.judging characters welljudging another person helpful or harmful is crucial when choosing friends. and that ability starts early. kiley hamlin of yale university showed both 6-and 10-month-olds a puppet(木偶) show, in which one character helped another climb a hill. in another scene a third character pushed the climber down. the little ones then got to choose which character they preferred. for both age groups, most babies chose the helper character. this character-judging ability could be babys first step in the formation of morals, hamlin thought.49. which of the following subtitles can fill in the underlined blank?a. dancing to music b. babies amazing abilitiesc. born to dance. d. learning to dance quickly50. the underlined word “it” in the third paragraph refers to_.a. the finding b. the baby c. the response d. the dancing ability51. the experiment with 26 sleeping infants prove that_.a. babies can communicate with others while asleepb. babies can learn even while asleepc. babies can tighten their eyelids in response to the soundd. babies can respond to the world around them52. in the last experiment, most babies chose the helper character, showing that_.a. babies can judge a person helpful or harmfulb. babies love to see a puppet showc. babies were born to help othersd. babes have learned to help others d recently weve observed an increasing request from disadvantaged and

things that have happened in the past. memory really is learning. one needs memory to ride a bicycle. a dog needs to remember if it is to come when called. memory is said to be stored in the brain as a “memory trace.” what makes up this trace is not known. some scientists believe that certain chemical substances may carry certain memories. for example, one substance, when given to rats, causes them to fear the dark. other research into memory has to do with how the brain works. psychologists use three means to find out how a person remembers. for example, give a person a grocery list. let the person memorize the list, then put it away. the most
