But the courage and determination Reeve displayed in trying to overcome his paralysis （瘫痪） from a 1995 horse-riding accident went beyond any of the achievements of the comic book hero.“He became a real-life Superman. His heroism, his courage was extraordinary,” Colin Blakemore, the chief executive of Britains Medical Research Council said. “Like many people who suffer some terrible injuries, Christopher Reeve was totally changed by that experience and brought the kind of energy and enthusiasm that made him successful as a film star to an entirely different issue, with huge effect.”Reeve, 52, died of heart failure on October 10, 2004 after having treatment for an infected pressure wound without realizing his dream of walking again. But in the nine years since his accident, he made personal progress to regain respect and admiration, established the Christopher Reeve Paralysis Foundation, a non-profit research organization, and used his fame to raise millions of dollars for research into spinal cord injuries.He also provided hope and inspiration to other patients and made speeches to support scientists to be allowed to conduct stem cell research in the hopes of eventually curing paralysis and other illnesses such as diabetes and Alzheimers and Parkinsons disease.“He has been our champion. If you think of spinal injuries, you automatically recall a picture of Christopher Reeve,” said Paul Smith, executive director of the Spinal Injuries Association in England. It is because of Reeve that spinal cord injuries and stem cell research are so widely discussed, according to Smith. The fact that it happened to Reeve showed it can affect anyone, even Superman.Reeve did not live long enough to see whether stem cell research could help restore （恢复）movement to the paralyzed. The research is still in its early days and no one knows what advances it may bring.41. Which of the following words can best describe the characteristics of Reeve?A. strong-willed and caring B. tough and persuasiveC. caring and reliable D. sympathetic and considerate42. The purpose of paragraph 2 is to show us that _.A. Reeve was not as capable as the image he acted in his filmB. the image of Superman created by Reeve will always be rememberedC. Reeve is no more than an ordinary person when he was faced with paralysisD. the inspiring image in Reeves real life was even greater than that in his film43. Reeve made the following contributions to the scientific research except_.A. setting up a non-profit research organizationB. winning public respect and admiration by overcoming obstaclesC. influencing the world by making speeches on stem cell researchD. struggling for the permission to conduct stem cell research44. It can be implied from the passage that _.A. Reeve remained optimistic after suffering from paralysisB. stem cell research has long been a controversial subjectC. paralysis can happen to anyone no matter how strong he seemsD. some presently incurable illnesses are to be cured in the near future45.

We say, “Nice song.” “Honey, you dont look fat in that, no.” But another study showed that strangers lied three times within the first 10 minutes of meeting each other. We lie more to strangers than we lie to coworkers. Men lie eight times more about themselves than they do other people. Women lie more to protect other people. If youre married, youre going to lie to your wife/ husband in one out of every 10 communications. If youre unmarried, that number drops to three. But look, if at some point you got lied to, its because you agreed to get lied to. Truth about lying: lyings a cooperative act. Not all lies are harmful. Sometimes were willing to lie for the sake of social dignity (尊严), maybe to keep a private secret. Lying is complex. Its woven into the fabric of our daily and business lives. Were deeply disturbed by the truth. We explain it, sometimes for very good reasons, other times just because we dont understand the gaps between ideals and realities in our lives. Were against lying, but secretly were for it in ways that our society has practiced for centuries and centuries. Its as old as breathing. Its part of our culture and history. Think the stories from Dante, Shakespeare, the Bible, News of the World.Lying has great value to the evolution of human being. Researchers have long known that the more intelligent the species, the more likely it is to lie. We human like to become leaders. It starts really early. How early? Well, babies will pretend to cry, pause, wait to see whos coming and then go right back to crying. One-year-olds learn hiding truth. Two-year-olds bluff (虚张声势). Five-year-olds lie outright and try to control via flattery (讨好). Nine-year-olds, masters of covering up. By the time you enter college, youre going to lie to your mom in one out of every five interactions. By the time we enter this work world to be breadwinners, weve entered a world that is just full of fake digital friends, business media, identity thieves, world-class cheats, in short, a post-truth society. What do you do? Well there are steps we can take to guide our way through the bushes. Trained lie spotters(监视人) get to the truth 90% of the time. The rest of us, were only 54% accurate. Why is it so easy to learn? There are clever liars and stupid liars. Therere no real original liars. We all make the same mistakes. We all use the same techniques. 50.
