If we do not study old English, we cant understand it. Some of the words are the same, but many are not used now. The story of the English language begins some time after the year 400 AD. At this time, some people came to England from North-west Europe. There were many groups of people. They were called Angles (盎格鲁人), Saxons（撒克逊人）and Jutes（朱特人），whose language, old English, is like some of the modern language of North-West Europe. In old English, the ending had many meanings. They showed past time and present time and many other things. In Modern English, most of these endings are gone. This is the biggest difference between Old and Modern English.( ) 56.

Now, I mean everything, not just houses and shops and grown-ups, but colors and flowers and journeys, especially journeys which seemed endless. “Are we there yet, Daddy?”Funfairs (游乐场) were huge things that spread for miles around you with noise and lights and exciting danger. Rainy days at home when you were ill seemed to last for ever. Being a grown-up yourself was an unthinkable distant possibility. Every sound was louder, every game was grander, every pain unbearable.As Ive grown old, life has become smaller. Tastes have bulled. Surprises have turned into shocks. Days go by unnoticed. How can I regain childhood when it was an illusion?I have only one repeatable and wonderful way and even in this way I can regain only part of that larger world. I can play upon the stage like a child and make the crowd laugh and laugh with them, sometimes helplessly like a child, and then, even though Im a sixty-one-year-old man, I can almost catch the colors and sounds and stillness of those bigger years when I was little.( ) 60.

His food-loving family had two kitchens, and he quickly learned what was the best way to bake his cakes. Lieberman improved his kitchen skills greatly during a year abroad before college, learning from a cook in Italy and studying local specialities(地方特色菜) in Germany, Spain and France. At Yale, he was known for throwing dinner parties, single-handedly frying and baking while mixing drinks for dozens of friends, Just for fun , he and some friends decided to tape a show named Campus Cuisine about his cooking. Lieberman was a real college student showing his classmates how to do things like make drinks out of dining-hall fruit. That helped the show become very popular among the students. They would stop Lieberman after classes to ask for his advice on cooking. Tapes of the show were passed around, with which his name went beyond the school and finally to the Food Network. Food Network producer Flay hopes the young cook will find a place on the network television. He says Liebermans charisma is key. “Food TV isnt about food anymore,”says Flay. “Its about your personality(个性)and finding a way to keep peoples eyeballs on your show.”But Lieberman isnt putting all his eggs in one basket.

The ice cream he was serving fell onto the white dress of a rich and important woman.Thirty years have passed, but Odland cant get the memory out of his mind, nor the womans kind reaction(反应). She was shocked, regained calmness and, in a kind voice, told the young Odland, “Its OK. It wasnt your fault.” When she left the restaurant, she also left the future Fortune 500 CEO(总裁)with a life lesson; You can tell a lot about a person by the way he or she treats the waiter.Odland isnt the only CEO to have made this discovery. Rather, it seems to be one of those few laws of the land that every CEO learns on the way up. Its hard to get a dozen CEOs to agree about anything, but most agree with the Waiter Rule. They say how others treat the CEO says nothing. But how others treat the waiter is like a window into the soul.Watch out for anyone who pulls out the power card to say something like, “I could buy this place and fire you.” Or “I know the owner and I could have you fired.” Those who say such things have shown more about their character(人品) than about their wealth and power.The CEO who came up with it, or at least first wrote it down, is Ravtheon CEO Bill Swanson. He wrote a best-selling book called Swansons Unwritten Rules of Management. “A person who is nice to you but rude to the waiter, or to others, is not a nice person,” Swanson says, “I will never offer a job to the person who is sweet to the boss but turns rude to someone cleaning the tables. ”( ) 69.

Fortune 500 companies B. the Management Rules C. Swansons book D. the Waiter Rule( ) 72. From the text we can learn that _. A. one should be nicer to important people B. CEOs often show their power before others C. one should respect others no matter who they are D. CEOs often have meals in expensive restaurants E It is difficult for doctors to help a person with a damaged brain. Without enough blood, the brain lives for only three to five minutes. More often the doctors cant fix the damage. Sometimes they are afraid to try something to help because it is dangerous to work on the brain. The doctors might make the person worse if he operates on the brain. Dr. Robert White, a famous professor and doctor, thinks he knows a way to help. He thinks doctors should make the brain very cold. If it is very cold, the brain can live without blood for 30 minutes. This gives the doctor a longer time to do somethin
