he explained that when you are the only one inside a lift, you can do whatever you want its your own little box. if there are two of you, you go into different corners, standing diagonally (对角线地) across from each other to create distance. when a third person enters, you will unconsciously form a triangle. and when there is a fourth person it becomes a square, with someone in every corner. a fifth person is probably going to have to stand in the middle. new entrants to the lift will need to size up the situation when the doors slide open and then act decisively. once in, for most people the rule is simple look down, or look at your phone. why are we so awkward in lifts? “you dont have enough space,” professor babette renneberg, a clinical psychologist at the free university of berlin, told the bbc. “usually when we meet other people we have about an arms length of distance between us. and thats not possible in most elevators.”in such a small, enclosed space it becomes very important to act in a way that cannot be construed (理解) as threatening or odd. “the easiest way to do this is to avoid eye contact,” she said.56.the main purpose of the article is to _. a. remind us to enjoy ourselves in the elevator b. tell us some unwritten rules of elevator etiquette c. share an interesting but awkward elevator ride d. analyze what makes people feel awkward in an elevator57. according to gray, when people enter an elevator, they usually _. a. turn around and greet one another b. look around or examine their phone c. make eye contact with those in the elevator d. try to keep a distance from other people58. which of the following describes how people usually stand when there are at least two people in an elevator?59. the underlined phrase “size up” in paragraph 7 is closest in meaning to _.a. judge b. ignore c. put up with d. make the best of60. according to the article, people feel awkward in lifts because of _. a. someones odd behaviors b. the lack of spacec. their unfamiliarity with one another d. their eye contact with one anotherbwinter is a very special time in northern norway. winter also means skiing, and narvik can offer some of the best skiing in norway. the view and light change frequently and no two days are the same. for many people, the northern lights are an unforgettable sight, and in narvik the sky is especially clear and great for watching at night.the tourist season lasts from february to april, although may can be fascinating too, often with fantastic dry snow and an unbelievable light lasting well into the evening.ski hireit is possible for adults and children to hire skiing equipment such as snowboards. all equipment is prepared for us. if you would like to book your equipment, please email narvikfjellet. cross-country skiingthere are 12 kilometers of cross country ski run in narvik. you need to bring your own skis as there is no cross-country hire. however, equipment can be bought at local sports shops in and around narvik.off-piste skiing（非场地滑雪） in order to explore narviks off-piste opportunities you need to know the dangers when choosing routes. it is suggested that you bring necessary equipment such as a shovel（雪铲）and a gps locator. ask narvikfjellet for an experienced guide. with a guide you can explore narviks special off-piste areas in a safe manner.sometimes it is nice to do something different

the 142-mile race in less than 10 hours. teams and watchers knew there might be no winner at all, because these vehicles were missing a key partdrivers.darpa, the defense advanced research projects agency, organized the race as part of a push to develop robotic vehicles for future battlefields. but the grand challenge, as it was called, just proved how difficult it is to get a car to speed across an unfamiliar desert without human guidance. one had its brake lock up in the starting area, another began by throwing itself onto a wall. another got tied up by bushes near the road after 1.9 miles.one turned upside down. one took off in entirely the wrong direction and had to be disabled by remote control. one went a little more than a mile and rushed into a fence; another managed to go for six miles but stuck on a rock. the “winner”,if there was any, reached 7.8 miles before it ran into a long, narrow hole, and the front wheels caught on fire.“you get a lot of respect for natural abilities of the living things,” says reinhold behringer, who helped design two of the car-size vehicles for a company called sci-autonics, “even ants can do all these tasks effortlessly. its very hard for us to put these abilities into our machines.”the robotic vehicles, though with necessary modern equipment such as advanced computers and gps guidance, had trouble figuring out fast enough the blocks ahead that a two-year-old human recognizes immediately. sure, that very young child, who has just only learned to walk, may not think to wipe apple juice off her face, but she already knows that when theres a cookie in the kitchen she has to climb up the table, and that when she gets to the cookie it will taste good. she is more advanced, even months old, than any machine humans have designed.66. watchers doubted if any of the vehicles could finish the race because _. a. they did not have any human guidanceb. the road was not familiar to the drivers c. the distance was too long for the vehicles d. the prize money was unattractive to the drivers67. darpa organized the race in order to _. a. raise money for producing more robotic vehiclesb. push the development of vehicle industry c. train more people to drive in the desert d. improve the vehicles for future wars68. from the passage we know “robotic vehicles” are a kind of machines that _.a. can do effortlessly whatever tasks living things canb. can take part in a race across 142 miles with a time limit c. can show off their ability to turn themselves upside downd. can move from place to place without being driven by human beings69. in the race, the greatest distance one robotic vehicle covered was .a. about eight miles b. six miles c. almost two milesd. about one mile70. in the last paragraph, the writer implies that there is a long way to go .a. for a robotic vehicle to finish a 142-mile race without any difficultiesb. for a little child who has just learned to walk to reach the cookie on the tablec. for a robotic vehicle to deal with a simple problem that a little child can solved. for a little child to understand the importance of wiping apple juice off its facedat beijings haite garden primary school, pupils pore over their work, concentrating on sums and language learning. however, they are not reading in textbooks, but on the screens of tablet computers linked to a wireless network. the school recently became one of a handful of schools in the capital to take this plunge. the tablet roll-out is a trial designed to discover new ways to inspire children to learn, according to school head wu youying. parents also fretted that the youngsters, lacking self control, will log onto instant messaging tools or games as soon as their teachers backs are turned. allowing pupils unlimited access to the internet is likely to distract their attentions as well as deprive them of imagination, said one parent on condition of anonymity.education expert liu yongming, notes beijings attempt to incorporate high technology into traditional classes follows current worldwide teaching trends. we should treat the tablet as a supportive tool because the essence of education lies in learning and thinking through reading and writing, and this should not be shattered and changed, liu adds.71. the school has experienced difficulties in the project except_.a. that the network is not stableb. that they are short of relevant resourcesc. that it is not easy to charge the devicesd. that there are more and more relevant resources now72. which of the following is true accor
