Passage 1 A little girl was given so many picture books on her seventh birthday that her father thought his da

21、ughter should give one or two of her new books to a little neighbor boy named Robert. Now, taking books, or anything else, from a little girl is like taking candy from a baby, but the father of the little girl had his way and Robert got two of her books. “After all, that leaves you with nine,” said

22、the father, who thought he was a philosopher and a child psychologist and couldnt shut his big stupid mouth on the subject. A few weeks later, the father went to his library to look up “father” in the Oxford English Dictionary to feast his eyes on the praise of fatherhood through the centuries, but

23、he couldnt find volume F-G and then he discovered that three others were missing, too. A-B, L-M, V-Z. He began to search his household and learned what had happened to the four missing volumes. “A man came to the door this morning,” said his little daughter, “and he didnt know how to get from here t

24、o Torrington, or from Torrington to Winsted, and he was a nice man, much nicer than Robert, and so I gave him four of your books.

Is it anything we say which we know is untrue? Or i

29、s it something more than that? For example, suppose a friend wants to borrow some money from you, you say: I wish I could help you but Im short of money myself. In fact, you are not short of money, but your friend is in the habit of not paying his debts and you dont want to hurt his feelings by remi

30、nding him of this. Is this really a lie? A scientific study of lying shows women are better liars than men, particularly when telling a “white lie” such as when a woman at a party tells another woman that she likes her dress when she really thinks it looks terrible. However, this is only one side of

31、 the story. Other researches show that men are more likely to tell more serious lies, such as making a promise which they have no intention of fulfilling. This is the kind of lie politicians and businessmen are supposed to be particularly skilled at: the lie from which the liar hopes to profit or ga

32、in in some way. Research has also been done into the way peoples behavior changes in a number of small, apparently unimportant ways when they lie. It has been found that if they are sitting down at the same time, they tend to move about in their chairs more than usual. To the trained observer they a

33、re saying I wish I were somewhere else now. 26. This passage tells us that _.

37、e we can know they are lying C. certain emotions are proof of lying D. in some situations women are most likely to think businessmen are dishonest Passage 3 Life really should be one long journey of joy for children born with a world of wealth at their feet. Internationally famous child doctor Rober

38、t Coles is the worlds top expert on the influence of money on children. He has written a well-known book on the subject, “The Privileged Ones”, and his research shows that too much money in the family can cause as many problems as too little. “Obviously there are certain advantages to being rich,” s

39、ays the 33-year-old doctor, “such as better health, education and future work prospects. But the most important is the quality of family life. Money cant buy love.” It can buy a lot of other things, however, and thats where the trouble starts. Rich kids have so much to choose from that they often be

40、come confused. Over-indulgence by their parents can make them spoilt. They tend to travel more than other children, from home to home and country to country, which causes feelings of restlessness. “But privileged children do have a better sense of their positions in the world,” adds Mr. Coles, “and

41、they are more self-assured.” The rich children inherit the property from their parents and enjoy a high income. So money will never be one of their problems. “However they will have a sense of isolation”, warns Dr Coles, “and they could suffer from the hardship of not being able to deal with the eve

42、ryday world because they will never really be given the chance. Everything they have achieved is because of an accident of birth. There can be no tremendous inner satisfaction about that.” Todays wealthy parents perhaps realize their riches can be more of a heavy load than a happiness to their child

43、ren. So the first thing for them to consider is to ensure that their families are as rich in love as they are in money. 31. In his book “The Privileged Ones,” Dr Coles implies that _.

47、lth parents to make sure that their families are rich in love as well as in money D. today all the wealthy parents are sure of the problems their money can bring 35.

Their values this cant be repeated too often are not necessarily our values. Physical comfort, cleanness and order are not necessarily the most important thin

49、gs. The social services from time to time find themselves faced with a flat with decaying(腐烂) food covered by small worms, and an old person lying alone on bed, taking no notice of the worms. But is it interfering with personal freedom to insist that they go to live with some of their relatives so t

50、hat they might be taken better care of? Some social workers, the ones who clear up the worms, think we are in danger of carrying this concept of personal freedom to the point where serious risks are being taken with the health and safety of the old. Indeed the old can be easily hurt or harmed. The b

51、ody is like a car. It needs more mechanical maintenance as it gets older. You can carry this comparison right through to the provision of spare parts. But never forget that such operations are painful experiences, however good the results. And at what point should you cease to treat the old body? Is

52、 it morally right to try to push off death by continuing the development of drugs to excite the forgetful old mind and to make the old body active, knowing that it is designed to die? You cannot ask doctors or scientists to decide, because so long as they can see the technical opportunities, they wi

53、ll feel bound to give them a try, on the principle that while theres life, theres hope.
