The worlds two biggest sporting events will be taking place in Brazil a few months from nowthe 2014 World Cup and the 2016 Olympics and the country has little time to spare in getting ready for them.

Others say the events will be helpful to the economy (经济) of the country by 2016. “Brazil needed the Olympics. We needed this chance,” Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva said in Copenhagen just hours after Rio beat (击败) Madrid, Tokyo and Chicago. “We only need one chance to prove that we are a great nation and that we have the confidence to do well, just like any other country in the world.” It will be the fourth time the same nation has hosted the Olympics and the World Cup in two yearsMexico did it in 1968 and 1970, Germany in 1972 and 1974 and the United States in 1994 and 1996.

Many experts (专家) use it to tell people its important to have a good eating habit. For example, too much sweet food makes a person overweight. To avoid being fat, kids are told to keep off sweet food. However, a team of American scientists have discovered something new about eating sweet food. “When we say some people sweet, we mean they are kind and friendly to us. Perhaps this word can help us learn more about peoples feelings and acts.” Said Brain Meier, a scientist from the study team. “Taste is something we experience every day. What we have done is to find whether we can know someones character and behavior (性格和行为) depending on their taste.”In one of their experiments（试验）, college students were asked questions about their character whether, for example, they were soft-hearted or not. Then they were asked to make a list of their favourite food. According to their answers, the scientists found that the students who liked sweet food were nicer. In their another experiment, the scientists found that people who preferred sweet food such as cookies and chocolate were more willing to help other people in need, and those who ate non-sweet food such as chips werent. For example, people with a sweet tooth were more likely to volunteer to clean up their city, visit sick children in the hospital and so on. The result of the experiments is that peoples helpfulness or being nice has something to do with their taste for sweet food. So eating sweet food is a useful way to make people nice and helpful. Next time, try some ice cream. 58. The underlined word it refers to (指代) _.A. the sweet foodB. the eating habit C. the American teamD. the English saying 59. According to the result of the experiments, sweet food makes people _.A. overweightB. excitedC. relaxedD. friendly 60. The scientists found that the people who preferred _ were less helpful.

It can be learnt from the passage that _.A. scientists asked college students questions about their futureB. scientists told college students not to eat sweet food C. people with a sweet tooth are more willing to help othersD. peoples character has nothing to do with their tasteDIn 1816, there were no schools for the deaf in America. Several people started a few schools, but in the end all of the schools closed. There were too many problems. The first people to succeed were Laurent Clerc and Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet. They opened their school in 1817, and the school did not close. At that time it was the only school for deaf children in America! Clerc and Gallaudet did not know what would happen after they opened their school. They worked very hard. The school grew, and many more students went to this school. These new students were from all over the country. People thought the school would be big enough for all of the deaf children in America. The school is still open today, but the name was changed. Today it is called the American School for the Deaf. It is in West Hartford, Connecticut. After Clerc and Gallaudet established their school, many other schools for the deaf were opened as well. Before Gallaudets death in 1851, 15 other schools for deaf children were built! Many of the teachers at those 15 schools used Gallaudets teaching methods.
