20、 way to reduce unemployment, US companies see the 30/40 program mainly as a tool to increase productivity.At the Hard Plastics plant, some 150 women employees work 6-hour daily for a 30-hour working week. And if they show up every day on time, they receive a 10-hour bonus for the week.“But if youre

21、even one minute late, sorry Charlie, no bonus,” said Ronald Richey, the companys president.“Were in a very low unemployment market here, 2.5 percent for the townWhitley,” said Ronald Richey. “The idea was to draw more quality applicants.”With 30/40, the company, which employs 325 people at two plant

35、rricane, earthquake, tidal waves, floods and the beginning of the next Ice Age.This is the scene that faces those who see “The Day After Tomorrow”, a new Hollywood sci-fi (科幻) movie. It is in the second place of US box office chart. Some say that the director, Roland Emmerich, has an uncontrollable

36、desire to destroy the world, especially New York. In 1996, he made “Independence Day”, in which aliens destroy earth. Two years later, he brought “Godzilla” to the screen.

37、uction on a global scale all thanks to the weather.In the movie, Jack Hall, a weather scientist, is the first man to realize that a new ice age is coming.

43、girls with the fair hair, blue eyes, and, or course, a pretty little nose.

These billboards not only te

44、ll me what to think, but also how to look.Our society tends to place more importance on a persons physical beauty, rather than their ability, honesty and character. We have influenced women to go through painful surgeries（外科手术）and starve themselves to become this socially constructed physical model.

45、 To be a beautiful woman in the 21st century doesnt mean that you are a brilliant doctor or caring mother. It means you have the perfect jaw（下巴）structure, eyes and lips. It means that you can be six feet tall and weigh one hundred and ten pounds.But what about the women who are starting to leave the

46、ir youth? Instead of looking at aging as a sign of wisdom, we attempt to prevent the aging process. Its a kind of funny thing to want to look eighteen when fifty.

47、ciety just sees you as “old”. To stop the aging process, women buy wrinkle(皱纹)creams, do eye lifts and face lifts. They spend thousands of dollars to win the hopeless battle against age.I remember when I was about thirteen years old and going through teens, I had oily hair, and a half developed body

48、. I hated the way I looked. I used to cry to my mother all the time, but she would just laugh and tell me that “you dont want anyone to like your appearance. Its your heart that matters, because beauty fades.” I knew that she was right. If you work on your heart enough, people will start to see the

49、beauty in you, which lasts and remains on even after you die.53.

It is a persons inner qualities that matter rather than the physical beauty.D.The author feels appearance

52、is important to a person.EAs you dash outdoors in the middle of winter, you might make it halfway down the block before realizing that your ears are freezing because you forgot your hat.Now, scientists have shown that even though youve had an apparent memory lapse(丧失), your brain never forgot what y

53、ou should have done.Memory works mainly by association(联想). For example, as you try to remember where you left your keys, you might recall you last had them in the living room, which reminds you that there was an ad for soap on television, which reminds you that you need soap, and so on. And then, a

54、s youre heading out the door to buy soap, you remember that your keys are on the kitchen counter.Your brain knew where the keys were all along, it just took a round-about way to get there.Now, scientists at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies are studying associative memory in monkeys to figur

55、e out just how this complicated process works.First, the researchers trained a group of monkeys to remember arbitrary(任意的)pairs of symbols. The researchers showed the monkeys one symbol (cold weather) and then gave them the choice of two other symbols, one of which (a hat) would be associated with the first. A correct choice would earn them a sip of their favorite juice.Most of the monkeys performed the test perfectly, but one kept making mistakes.“We wondered what happened in the brain when the monkeys made the wrong choice, although they app
