My grandmother would ask the customer, “How are you doing today, Thomas?”The person would reply, “Not so good today, Henderson. You see, its this summer heat. I just hate it. It just makes me tired. Its almost killing me. Then my grandmother would stand calmly, her arms folded, and say, “Uh-huh, uh-huh.”As soon as the complainer was out of the store, my grandmother would call me to stand in front of her. Then she would say the same thing she had said at least a thousand times, it seemed to me. “Jane, did you hear what so-and-so complained about?” And I would nod. Grandmother would continue, “Jane, there are people who went to sleep all over the world last night, poor and rich and black and white, but they will never wake again. Those dead people would give anything, anything at all for just five minutes of this weather that person was complaining about. So you watch yourself about complaining, Jane. What youre supposed to do when you dont like a thing is change it. If you cant change it, change the way you think about it. Dont complain.”I have learned a lot from my grandmother.

Piloting the plane was Captain Thomas Nash. Looking westward, Nash saw twelve orange lights in a row, moving at a fantastic rate of speed. An old experienced flyer, he had never seen anything like them. Thinking they might be a new German weapon, he decided to give chase. But when he swung the plane around and headed directly for the lights, they disappeared. Captain Nash may have been the first to see such orange lights but he wasnt the last. His experience was repeated many times by pilots during World Warboth in Europe and the Far East. Pilots in the Korean War also reported seeing the strange lights. What were they? No one knows for sure, but there is an interesting theory to account for them. According to this theory, the orange lights are space animals animals specially adapted to life in the upper atmosphere just as some creatures are adapted to life at the bottom of the sea. These space animals, the theory says, live so far up in the atmosphere that they are not visible from earth. They feed partly on the air and partly on energy from sunlight. Being almost pure energy themselves, they can adjust their bodies to glow（发光） at night. During the day they become invisible. Before World War II, continues the theory, there was little radiated（发射的）energy available on the earths surface. Then came the development of rockets, atomic reactors（核反应堆）, and hydroelectric plants（水力发电厂）. The space creatures are attracted to these sources of energy of food. At night when there is no energy from sunlight, they go down into the lower levels in search of a meal. They may even drift into the range of human eyesight. This explains the fact that they have been sighted regularly from the earth since 1943. ( ) 60. The best statement of the main idea of this passage is that _.A.

The theory says that during the daytime the space animals _.A. glow brightly in the sky B. are invisibleC. can be spotted from earth D. visit the earths surface( ) 62. If the space animal theory is correct, the creatures go down to the lower regions in order to _.A. escape being discovered B. cause curiosityC. search for man-made energy D. make contact with man( ) 63. The space animal theory would seem to suggest that _. A. living beings are extremely adaptableB. life in space is impossible for manC. the fittest creatures always surviveD. life cannot exist in the depth of the seaCWhats on Oscar Film Themes Symphony ConcertFilm highlights accompanied by live performances of movie theme music by the China Opera and Dance Drama Theatre Symphony Orchestra, which has recorded the music for many films.
