But like so many things that we do without thinking such actions at one time probably represented something.For example, in primitive(原始的) life the hand was used to fight enemies, kill animals, and make spears and tools. So when the hand was extended to someone, it showed that the person was not armed or ready for fight.We know that the hand was an important symbol in early religion, probably as a mark of power. The Greeks prayed to their gods with raised hands. Presenting the hands palm to palm was at one time the way an inferior(身份低的) person paid respect to a superior(身份高的) one.Among the Arabs, it was customary at one time to kiss the hand of a superior. Later on, polite Arabs began to resist the efforts of people to kiss their hands, and sometimes they would end up shaking hands as each tried to prevent the other from showing this mark of “inferiority(下级).”The early Greeks held out the right hand when they wished to show friendship to a stranger. So we can see that the hand, and what was done with it, was full of meaning to people down through the ages. And while we shake hands without thinking, we are really carrying on a custom that has been handed down to us from ancient times.56. The second paragraph tells us _.A. the handshake didnt mean greeting B. what hands were used to do in primitive lifeC. the handshake showed mens kindness D. the handshake showed nothing57. Among the Arabs, at one time,_.A. people kissed each other whenever they met B. men kissed the women whenever they metC. less important person kissed more important persons handD. more important person kissed less important persons hand58. The phrase “ hand down” in the last sentence means _.A. put down B. leave down C. give down D. pass downBFor many years Henry had been a journalist. He had worked on many international newspapers and magazines and traveled all over the world.Henry had witnessed wars and natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes and erupting volcanoes (火山爆发) .He had reported on serious accidents such as major fires and airline crashes.He had seen every kind of terrible crime and strange event there was.He had met and written about some of the most unusual people in the world.In fact, there wasnt much that Henry had not seen or done.Now he was retired from journalism(新闻业). He owned a very expensive restaurant and spent his days talking to his wealthy and important customers. He liked to say that nothing surprised him.One day he was sitting at the bar in his restaurant when a big gorilla walked in and asked for a table.Henry showed no surprise. He took the gorilla to a table and handed him a menu. He treated him politely and pretended there was nothing at all strange about having a gorilla in his restaurant.The gorilla looked through the menu and ordered a salad.Henry served the gorilla his salad personally, knowing that his waiters and waitresses would be too frightened.At last the gorilla finished his salad and asked for the bill.Henry wrote out the bill and handed it to the big animal.The gorilla studied it, shook his head sadly, then gave Henry fifty dollars.“Thank you”, Henry said, and then to make conversation he added, “We dont get many gorillas in this restaurant.”“At fifty dollars for a salad,” the gorilla said, “Im not surprised.”59What does the underlined word “witness” mean?A. to see or notice something by being present when it happens B. to be a sign ofC. to tell and prove what happened in court D. to feel unhappy with60One day when a gorilla came into the restaurant, Henry was .A. very surprised by the gorilla B. not disturbed by the gorillaC. very interested in the gorilla D. scared of the gorilla61From the sentence “Henry served the gorilla his salad personally, knowing that his waiters and waitresses would be too frightened” you learn that: . A. His staff were not brave people B. Henry didnt normally serve customers C. The gorilla had eaten there before D. The gorilla was careful with his money62What the gorilla said at last really meant that he was . A. angry with the salad B. still hungry after his saladC. not surprised by the cost of the food D. surprised by the pricesCI stood without moving, the door closed behind me, the walls hard and silent on both sides and him in front of me, looking into my face. His empty eyes grew a smile when he realized he would soon have all the money in my wallet. Looking downwards at his hands, I saw him take out a sharp, silvery object. Then in soft, low voice he said, “Come over here.” Although I felt a wetness collect on my forehead, a collapsing of feeling in my stomach like a balloon losing air and a shiver(颤抖) of fear in my legs, by now it was impossible to escape , so I fell into a chair beside him. Though as far as I know he would soon cut me, I raised my courage enough to say, “A little off the sides around my ears and shorten the top.”63. “He ” in the passage was a person _A. with a small room to live in B. who killed others easily and quicklyC. with a soft voice but strange ideas D. who took others money unlawfully64.The man took out a sharp silvery object_A .to show he didnt want to smile B to be ready to kill the personC. to force the person to give up the money to him D to show he had a knife65.Why did the writer say, “A little off the sides around my ears and shorten the top”? Because the writer_A. wanted to frighten the man B. tried to give the man lessonsC. tried to show he was not frightened D. wanted to tell the man how to kill a person66.The passage is_A. telling us the writers changing B. to encourage people to struggle against bad personsC. about a humorous story D. about the writers fearful experienceDWhen I opened my e-mail the other day, a pretty woman named Rachel appeared on my computer screen. She greeted me by name and started talking with great enthusiasm（热情）. Every now and then she stopped to smile at me or blow a kiss. She was reading to me an e-mail from my brother, and a lot of it was about the trouble he had getting the phone company to give him a high-speed Internet connection. It was pretty cool.Rachel was there thanks to a new technology called Facemail. An ace man lets you send an e-mail that gets ready to the recipient（收件人）by an attractive male or female from or by a clown（小丑）. The software, which is free, can be downloaded at .Facemail faces are lifelike, and they simulate（模拟）emotions based on emotions-for example, that you put in your text. Type in; -x, and Rachel blows a kiss.Life Fx, the company that develops the Facemail, is sure there are broad business uses. The reason e-business is not popular, the company says, is that buying over the Internet lacks the human touch. But what if you went to the Nike website and Michel Jordan greeted you by name, waited on you and personally closed the sale? And it is talking with Whirlpool（惠而浦公司）about using the technology in a computer screen on a fridge. Then if Mom cant be home when the kids get back from school, she can leave a note with voice and image telling them what there is to eat. Facemail could get hot fast. Personally, Im a fan. But Facemail should be used with care. The clown looks lively and funny at first. But if you select the clown, put a few rude words in an e-mail and add some angry emotions, youre got Psycho-mail（疯人型电子邮件）.67.The pretty woman that appears on the writers computer screen was . A. his brothers girl friend B. not a real personC. the picture of his pen friend D. a woman working on the Internet68.The main advantage（优点）of Facemail is that .A. you can see the person who sends you the email B. you can put your own emotions in the emailC. e-mail can be read in a more lovely way D. you can hire a beautiful woman to read the email to you69.We can infer from the passage that Facemail .A. can destroy your e-mail if not properly used B. can be downloaded free of charge（费用）sC. will take the place of the e-mail system D. is likely to be used in other aspects（方面）of our daily life70.The writer mentioned Nike website and Micheal Jordan to show that .A. Facemail can make shopping on the Internet more interestingB. Nike company is increasing its sales through the fame of JordanC. Michael Jordan will serve you
