students asked its readers what life would be like in twenty years, they said: machines would be run by solar power. buildings would rotate（旋转）so they could follow the sun to take maximum advantage of its light and heat. walls would “give light” and “change color with the push of a button.” food would be replaced by pills. school would be taught by electrical impulse（电脉冲）while we sleep. cars would have radar（雷达）. does this sound like the year 2000? actually, this article was written in 1958 and the question was, “what will life be like in 1978?the future is much too important to simply guess about, the way the high school students did, so experts are regularly asked to predict accuately. by carefully studying the present, skilled businessmen, scientists, and politicians are supposedly able to figure out in advance what will happen. but can they? one expert on cities wrote: cities of the future would not be crowded, but would have space for farms and fields. people would travel to work in “airbuses”, large all-weather helicopters carrying up to 200 passengers. when a person left the airbus station he could drive a coin-operated car equipped with radar. the radar equipment of cars would make traffic accidents “almost unheard of”. does that sound familiar? if the expert had been accurate it would, because he was writing in 1957. his subject was “the city of 1982”.if the professionals sometimes sound like high school students, its probably because future study is still a new field. but economic forecasting, or predicting what the economy will do, has been around for a long time. it should be accuate, and generally it is. but there have been some big mistakes in the field, too. in early 1929, most forecasters saw an excellent future for the stock market. in october of that year, the stock market had its worst losses ever, ruining thousands of investors who had put their faith in financial foreseers.one forecaster knew that predictions about the future would always be subject to significant error. in 1957, h.j. rand of the rad corporation was asked about the year 2000, “only one thing is certain,” he answered. “children born today will have reached the age of 43.”36. how many examples does the author offer to describe the future life? a. three b. four c. five d. six37. the high school students answers to “what would life be like in 1978?” sound _. a. accurate b. imaginative c. correct d. foolish38. in the second paragraph, the writer gives examples to show _. a. predicting about the future can be done in a humorous way b. no predictions are based on careful research c. experts are always better than others in figuring out what the future will be like d. forecasting the future is not an easy job even for experts in this field39. from the third paragraph we can learn that _. a. economy forecasting is rather a new field b. experts began economy forecasting in 1929 c. the predictions about economic situation caused the investors to lose lots of money d. good, accurate forecasting helped the stock market overcome the difficulties40. h.j.rands prediction about the year 2000 shows that _. a. it is easy to figure out in advance what will

admitted to duke university. with a degree in computer science, she finally became the manager of a company in new york. my mother could give fluent speeches, say “wolves” correctly.it was my mother who always stressed the importance of language. from the time i was born, i was read to. i would fall asleep to the sounds of my parents voices, whether it was my dads softly accented, or my mothers clear english. the flow of language was unbroken, and whether in chinese or english, the stream of communication flowed through our house.one october morning in sixth grade, after my mother had left to catch the train to the city, i left the house for the bus stop. i was surprised when i saw our car, the door hanging open. as i drew closer, i saw my mother lying on the ground.in the hospital, it was hard to believe that the lady who lay before me was my mom. my mother could not remember my name. as the leaves changed colors, it became clear that the stroke had created a wall between my mothers mind and mouth: her mind was not any less clear, but the words she spoke were not what she meant.the battle my mother faced taught me the importance of language. without it, identity does not exist; relationships cannot be formed; stories cannot be told; directions cannot be given, and knowing anything about anyone is impossible. without language, communication cannot take place. without

quite different from other nations in the world. what is more, these elements are still influencing the american culture. the early immigrants who were english puritans settled down in northeast part of america from 1607 to 1892. frontiers were pushed further west. the frontiersmen looked for a land of rich resources and a land of promise, opportunity and freedom. actually they looked for a better life. so individualism(个人主义), self-reliance, and equality of opportunity have perhaps been the values most closely associated with the frontier heritage of america. in history, people from different countries in the world rushed to america three times. they brought their own culture to america and later on, different cultures were mixed together. thus the unique american culture was formed, a
