a lot. you have the ability to perform that kind of miracle in another person. when you add to his self-pride, you make him want to like you and to cooperate with you. 8 in a classic bit of advice, lord chesterfield suggested to his son that he should follow the example of the duke de nivernoise: “you will recognize that he makes people pleased with him by making them first pleased with themselves.” 9 the effects of praise can be great indeed. a new minister who was called to a church whose members were jokingly referred to as “a refrigerator” by other ministers decided against criticizing（批评）his people for their coolness toward strangers. instead, he began welcoming visitors and telling them how friendly the members of the church were. things gradually changed. “praise transformed the ice-cube members into warmhearted human beings,” he said. 59. from paragraph 1 and paragraph 2 we can learn that .a. the young homemaker had a thirst for bills praiseb. the neighbor reminded bill to compliment the homemaker c. it is well-known that we all need encouragement very much d. getting other peoples approval leads to losing self-confidence60. according to the passage, we become difficult to get on with probably because . a. we want to show our self-image b. a miracle happens to other peoplec. we are ashamed of being praised d. we are not satisfied with our self-image61. the example in paragraph 8 tells us that .a. lord chesterfield advised his son to praise the duke de nivernoisb. praising other people will help win other peoples compliment c. the duke de nivernois made lord chesterfield pleased with his sond. receiving words of praise should go before praising other people62. in paragraph 9, “a refrigerator” was quoted probably because . a. it was always freezing cold in the church b. the new minister criticized his people coolly c. the church took the shape of a refrigerator d. the members of the church were unfriendly to strangers camerican researchers say drinking tea may help strengthen the bodys defense system against infection（感染）. doctors at brigham and womens hospital in boston, massachusetts, did the study. the team studied a chemical found in black, green, oolong and pekoe tea. this chemical is an amino acid（氨基酸）called l-theanine. the scientists say it may increase the strength of gamma delta t cells. thats the letter t, not the drink. gamma delta t cells are part of the bodys defense.first, the researchers mixed some of these cells with antigens found in the amino acid. antigens help the body react to infection. then the scientists added some bacteria. within twenty-four hours, the cells produced a lot of interferon, a substance(物质) that fights infection. cells not mixed with the antigens did not produce interferon.in the second part of the study, eleven people drank five to six cups of black tea every day. ten other people drank the same amount of instant coffee. that is dried coffee mixed with hot water.two weeks later, and again two weeks after that, the researchers tested the blood of all twenty-one people. they also looked at what happened when they added bacteria to the blood cells. they found that the tea drinkers produced five times more interferon after they started drinking tea. the coffee drinkers did not produce interferon.doctor jack bukowski led the study. he says the antigens added to the gamma delta t cells were responsible for the increased reaction to the bacteria. he says that the study also showed that the cells were able to remember the bacteria and fight them again the next time.earlier research already has found that tea can help prevent heart disease and cancer. doctor bukowski says the new study must be repeated by more people. “if the findings prove to be true,” he says, “then tea drinking might also help protect against bacterial infections.” he says the amino acid l-theanine could be removed from the tea and used as a drug to strengthen the bodys defenses.63. tea may help strengthen the bodys defense system because it helps _.a. the body to produce more interferon b. to add some bacteria to the blood cellsc. the body to produce more gamma delta t cellsd. to mix antigens with some of the cells in the body64. according to dr bukowski, _.a. the findings of the study have already proved to be trueb. further study is needed to prove the findings true c. he has taken some amino acid l-theanine from tea and made a drug with itd. he is not sure whether tea helps prevent heart disease and cancer65. what would be the best title for this text?a. tea may help fight infection b. tea is better than coffee c. our body needs tea d. tea can help prevent cancer dthe term “industry 4.0” refers to the fourth industrial revolution(革命). the first industrial revolution was the production of good
