Recent research indicates that the mobile phone is changing not only our culture, but our very bodies as well. First, lets talk about culture. The difference between the mobile phon

22、e and its parent, the fixed-line phone, is that a mobile number corresponds to a person, while a landline goes to a place. If you call my mobile, you get me. If you call my fixed-line phone, you get whoever answers it. This has several implications（含义）. The most common one, however, and perhaps the

23、thing that has changed our culture forever, is the “meeting” influence. People no longer need to make firm plans about when and where to meet. Twenty years ago, a Friday night would need to be arranged in advance. You needed enough time to allow everyone to get from their place of work to the first

24、meeting place. Now, however, a night out can be arranged on the run. It is no longer “see you there at 8”,but “text me around 8 and well see where we all are.” Texting changes people as well. In their paper, “Insights into the Social and Psychological Effects of SMS (Short Message Service) Text Mess

25、aging, two British researchers distinguished between two types of mobile phone users: the “talkers” and the “texters”those who prefer voice to text messages and those who prefer text to voice. They found that the mobile phones individuality and privacy gave texters the ability to express a whole new

26、 outer personality. Texters were likely to report that their family would be surprised if they were to read their texts. This suggests that texting allowed texters to present a self-image that differed from the one familiar to those who knew them well. Another scientist wrote of the changes that mob

27、iles have brought to body language. There are two kinds that people use while speaking on the phone. There is the “speakeasy”: the head is held high, in a self-confident way, chatting away. And there is the “spacemaker”: these people focus on themselves and keep out other people. Who can blame them?

28、 Phone meetings get cancelled or reformed and camera- phones intrude（侵入）on peoples privacy. So, it is understandable if your mobile makes you nervous. But perhaps you neednt worry so much. After all, it is good to talk.41. The “meeting” influence of a mobile phone refers to the fact that _.A. people

29、 can arrange their meeting place and time more flexiblyB. people have to make a firm plan about when and where to meetC. people are able to meet someone at any place and any timeD. people have to attend phone meetings than ever before42. According to the two British researchers, the Social and Psych

A. showing or making known B.wellwrittenC.unacceptablebyothersD.shockingtoothers44. According to the passage, who is afraid of being h

31、eard while talking on the mobile?A. talkersB. the “speakeasy”C. the “spacemaker” D. texters45. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A. The Influence of Short Message ServiceB. Changes Caused by Mobile Phone UseC. Changes in the Use of the MobileD. Body Language and the Mobile

32、PhoneBTop Four Ways to Build a Wonderful Life1. Live Below Your MeansThere will always be temptation to give up the future for immediate pleasure. We all want to buy that new piece of technology, treat ourselves to an expensive night on the town, or take out a loan for the flashy car we cant afford.

33、 It might feel great at the time but unwise spending hurts a lot later on. Enjoy lifes simple pleasures and save as much as you can. Expensive things dont create lasting happiness and security.

34、ing is great, but to make the most of your money you need to put it to work. Good investments can be the difference between retiring in your 40s or in your 60s. A post today at The Simple Dollar really got me thinking. According to Trents estimates, if a person in their early 20s invests 20% of thei

35、r income in an S&P index fund, the interest they earn will equal their current salary when they reach their early 40s. They could retire without a drop in income! Wise investing is the surest path to financial independence and its something everyone can work on. Its definitely an area Ill be devotin

36、g more attention to in my personal life.3. Educate YourselfTo be happy we need continuous growth. The best way to grow is life-long education. This doesnt mean you need to pursue a doctorate or spend 2 hours reading every day. Self-education can be anything that takes you out of your comfort zone. T

37、he important part is keeping an open mind and searching for fresh ideas and perspectives. Education builds over time. It might feel like the bits of wisdom you acquire dont mean much, but over the years they add up to form a wiser, kinder, more interesting person.4. Develop Lasting Personal Relation

38、shipsSuppose you had everything you wanted. Would you be happy without anyone to share it with? The personal relationships we develop with friends and family members are the greatest source of happiness in our lives. Dont forget about them. Taking the time to cultivate and enjoy personal relationshi

39、ps is essential to long-term happiness.

43、an important part of the culture, economy and religion for centuriesAnd nowhere more so than in ThailandUnlike its African cousin, the Asian elephant is easily domesticated（驯化）The rare so-called white elephants have actually lent the power of royalty to its rulers，and until the 1920s the national fl

46、worse environment and the changing lives of the Thais themselvesAccording to Richard Lair, Thailands expert on the Asian elephant and author of the report Gone Astray, at the turn of the last century, there may well have been as many as 100,000 national elephants in the countryIn the north of Thaila

47、nd alone, it was estimated（估计）that more than 20,000 elephants were employed in transport, 1,000 of them alone on the road between the cities of Chiang Mai and Chiang Saen This was at a time when 90 percent of Thailand was still forest-a habitat that not only supported the animals but also made them

48、necessary to carry goods and peopleNothing ploughs through thick forest better than lots of sure-footed elephantsBy 1950 the elephant population had dropped, but still to the number of 13, 397However, today there are probably no more than 3,800, with another l,350 wandering free in the national park

49、sBut now, Thailands forest covers only 20 percent of the landThis deforestation（采伐森林）is the central point of the elephants difficult situation, for it has effectively put the animals out of workThis century, as the road network grew, the elephants role as a beast of burden decreased50What can we kno
