blind and deaf, the whole world became completely dark and quiet for robert edwards for almost ten years. the loss of sight and hearing threw him into such sorrow that he tried a few times to put an end to his life. his family, especially his wife, did their best to tend and comfort him and finally he regained the will to live.one hot summer afternoon, he was taking a walk with a stick near his house when a thunderstorm started all at once. he stood under a large tree to avoid getting wet, but he was struck by the lightning. witnesses thought he was dead but he woke up some 20 minutes later lying face down in muddy water at the base of the tree. he was trembling badly, but when he opened his eyes, he could hardly believe what he saw: a plough and a wall. when mrs edwards came running up to him, shouting to their neighbors to call for help, he could see her and hear her voice for the first time in nearly ten years. the news of robert regaining his sight and hearing quickly spread, and many doctors came to examine him. most of them said that he regained his sight and hearing from the shock he got from the lightning. however, none of them could give a convincing answer as to why this should have happened. the only reasonable explanation given by one doctor was that, since robert lost his sight and hearing as a result of a sudden shock, perhaps, the only way for him to regain them was by another sudden shock. 【小题1】 the reason for roberts attempts to kill himself was that .a. a terrible traffic accident happened to himb. he had to live in a dark and silent worldc. he was struck by the lightning once mored. nobody in the world cared about him【小题2】what was robert doing when he was struck by the lightning?a. sheltering from the rain under a tree. b. driving a car. c. taking a

shown that 85 percent of communication is nonverbal, so choosing what to wear to an interview is clearly an important part of your overall presentation. it wont make up for weak answers, but it can communicate some positive things about your personality and what you might be like to work with. blue: you cant go wrong with darker shades of blue, especially navy. choosing from this powerful color will project an image of someone who is in control. from the interviewers point of view, the color blue suggests calm, stability, trust, truth, confidence and security. these are all great messages to send without saying a word. gray: after blue, gray is the second most popular color to wear for an interview. like darker blue, its not a distracting color to the interviewer, which means theyll be focused more on what youre saying and how youre saying it. gray means sophistication (老成), so use it to your advantage. black: this is a commanding color and represents authority. black also suggests excitement, so use it carefully when putting together your interview outfit. you may want to use it as an accent (着重色) like in a scarf or tie, for instancerather than as the primary color. red: this is an extremely powerful color. its so strong that you should only use it as an accent color. reds are associated with energy, passion, desire, power and aggression. people think of intensity (紧张) and passion when they see the color red, so use it carefully or it could send the wrong message to the interviewer. white: white shirts and blouses are always appropriate. it sends the message of simplicity, cleanliness, precision and goodness. 【小题1】what is the best title of the passage?a. how to prepare for your job interview b. a research on coloursc. colorful clothes never fail d. what the colors of your clothes say about you【小题2】why is it important to choose what to wear to an interview?a. because it will make up for your weak answers. b. because it suggests something about your

“blue”?stability energy power confidence securitya. b. c. d. 【小题4】if you want to leave an impression of being simple and clean, you should be dressed in _.a. gray b. red c. black d. white【小题5】from the passage we can infer that . a. job interviewees should think twice before wearing red clothesb. the colors can send all the messages you want to conveyc. you can wear white clothes if you want to

piobbico, the self-declared world capital of ugly people. the road sign at the edge of the town even warns visitors that they are entering the ugly zone. people who consider themselves ugly have been gathering in piobbico since the 1960s. thats when ugly club president telesforo lacobelli established a dating agency for women who believed they were too ugly to attract husbands. lacobelli believes that he is ugly himself because he has a short nose in a country where long or large noses have always been considered beautiful. people from around the world travel to piobbico to tell their sad stories of ugliness. during the annual festival of the ugly, which occurs on the first sunday of every september, hundreds of people gather in piobbicos town square to elect the president of the ugly club. lacobelli wins the election every year. the ugly club has over 20, 000 members. they carry id cards that grade their ugliness from bearable to extreme. a prize is awarded to ugly club members who qualify as extremely ugly. the ugly club president insists that ugliness is a virtue. since beautiful people get a lot of attention for their beauty alone, they have to work hard to prove their other virtues. ugly people, on the other hand, are genuine and do not have to prove anything to anybody, according to lacobelli. lacobelli is a spokesperson for ugly people everywhere. he believes that the uglier one is, the better life can be. though the club enjoys making fun of beauty, especially beauty contests, lacobelli has a serious side as well. he believes that too many people suffer from financial and emotional pressures because they dont meet societys standards of beauty. the fact that beautiful people are more successful in the workforce is a problem that lacobelli has attempted to bring forward to the italian public and government. 【小题1】piobbico is rather special in that . a. it is a very small town b. it is home to ugly peoplec. it receives no visitors d. it is the capital of italy【小题2】telesforo lacobelli started his dating agency about years ago. a. 20 b. 30 c. 40 d. 60【小题3】why is lacobelli elected the president of the ugly club every year?a. because he is the ugliest person in the whole world. b. because his ugliness is always graded as bearable. c. because he is a spokesperson for ugly people everywhere. d. because he has won the members trust and admiration. 【小题4】 which of the following is true according to the passage?a. ugly people are most respected in italy. b. the festival of the ugly is held every two years. c. ugly people are unfairly treated in society. d. the uglier one is, the better life he or she lives.【小题5】which of the following would be the best title for the passage?a. the ugly capital of the worldb. the ugliest person of

bad the traffic can be. therere too many cars, and you cant move around a lot. professor cyrus shahabi also knows about traffic jams. he lives more than 65 kilometers from his office at the university of southern califomia,in los angeles. he is always late even with the help of a navigation(导航) system. he decided to develop a programme called clearpath for that. he says his program uses historical data to predict traffic conditions even before the driver leaves the house. whats unique is that we use a lot of data thats currently become available including traffic data,weather data,and we analyze that so that we can predict whats going to happen in front of you when you leave home. professor shahabi says his system does more than just respond to current traffic conditions. with clearpath,he says,a driver can decide what time he wants to leave, and clearpath will give the fastest route. it looks at the entire road network, including surface streets as well as highways,before the driver hits the road. professor shahabi hopes to have clearpath available nationwide and overseas once they can collect traffic data from other cities. i always thought that los angeles had the worst traffic, but now i know that shanghai,beijing,seoul,tokyo, believe it or not, singapore, hong kong certainly are examples that can immediately use this. professor shahabi hopes to share this new technology with companies that already have navigation systems, such as google and apple.【小题1】drivers in los angeles were mentioned in order to_. a. show care for them b. introduce their life c. solve

even a taste may help get them to eat previously disliked foods, a uk study said. though it might seem obvious that a reward could encourage young children to eat their vegetables, the idea is actually controversial, researchers wrote in the american journal of clinical nutrition. thats because some studies have shown that rewards can backfire and cause children to lose interest in foods they already liked, said jane wardle, a researcher at university college london who worked on the study. verbal praise, such as “brilliant! youre a great vegetable taster”, did not work as well. the study found that when parents gave their small children a sticker each time they took a “tiny taste” of a disliked vegetable, it gradually changed their attitudes. the children were also willing to eat more of the vegetableseither carrots, celery, cucumber, red pepper, cabbage or sugar snap peasin laboratory taste tests, the study said. researchers randomly assigned (分派) 173 families to one of these groups. in one, parents used stickers to reward their children each time they took a tiny sample of a disliked vegetable. a second group of parents used verbal praise. the third group, where parents used no special vegetable-promoting methods, served as a “control”. parents
