When I was in seventh grade,I worked at a local hospital in my town. I 1 about thirty to forty hours a week during the summer. Most of the time I spent there was with Mr. Gillespie. He never had any 2       ,and nobody seemed to care about his condition. I spent many days there 3        his hand and talking to him,helping with anything that needed to be done. He became a close friend of mine,even though he 4        with only an occasional squeeze of my hand. Mr. Gillespie was in a coma        (昏迷) .

  I left for a week to vacation with my parents,and when I came back,Mr. Gillespie was 5       . I didn't have the 6        to ask any of the nurses where he was,for fear they might tell me he had died. So 7       many questions unanswered,I continued to volunteer there through my eighthgrade year.

  Several years later,when I was a junior in high school,I was at the gas station when I noticed a 8       face. When I realized who it was,my eyes filled with tears. He was 9       !I asked him if his name was Mr. Gillespie,and if he had been in a ( n) 10       about five years ago. With an 11        look.on his face,he replied yes. I explained how I knew him,and that I had spent many hours talking with him in the hospital. His eyes welled up with tears,and he gave me the warmest 12        I had ever received.

  He began to tell me how,as he 13        there comatose (昏睡的) ，he could hear me talking to him and could feel me holding his hand the whole time. He thought it was an/a 14      ,not a person,who was there with him. Mr. Gillespie firmly believed that it was my voice and touch that had 15        him alive.

  Then he told me about his 16        and what happened to him to put him in the conia. We both cried for a while and 17 a hug,said our goodbyes and went our separate ways.

  Although I haven't seen him since,he 18 my heart with joy every day. I know that I made a 19       between his life and his death. More important,he has made a tremendous difference in 20        life. I will never forget him and what he did for me: he made me an angel.

  For millions of Facebook users,choosing which photo to use for an online profile is an important decision. According to a study by researchers at the UT Dallas Center,the photos we select may reflect individual preferences,but they also appear to reflect more deeply rooted,unconscious cultural differences. Previous research has shown that culture can affect not only language and custom,but also how we experience the world and process information. Western cultures,for example,condition people to think of themselves as highly independent entities (實(shí)體) ，whereas East Asian cultures stress collectivism and interdependence.

  Dr. Denise Park,codirector of the Center at UT Dallas,and former graduate student Dr. Chih-Mao Huang of the University of Illinois,were curious about whether these patterns of cultural influence extend to cyberspace (網(wǎng)絡(luò)空間) .In a paper published in the International Journal of Psychology,they examined the profile photographs of more than 500 active Facebook users from the United States and East Asia. Overall,they found that profile photos of Americans are more likely to focus on the individual's face,while the profiles of East Asians tend to less emphasize the face and include more background features. Americans also show greater smile intensity compared to East Asian Facebook users.

  The findings show marked cultural differences in the focus of attention among East Asian and American Facebook users. Moreover,they echo previous research on cultural influences on visual perception (感知) ，attention,and reasoning in the offline world.

  "We believe these findings relate to a cultural bias (偏見，偏差) to be more individualistic and independent in the US and more communal (公共的) and interdependent in Asia," said Park.

  The research also found that cultural influences over our selfpresentation online can shift over time and from place to place. In one of the study samples,Americans studying in Japan and Japanese studying in the US both showed a tendency to adjust their profile photos to the general preferences of their host country.

  "Facebook constitutes an extended social context in which personal profiles mirror various individual characteristics,private thoughts,and social behaviors," noted Huang. " As such,the study presents a new approach to investigate cognition and behaviors across cultures by using Facebook as a data collection platform."

(   ) 1. The underlined word "condition" in the first paragraph probably means         .

   A. advise   B. instruct   C. shape   D. forbid

(   ) 2. We can know from the passage that Mongolians probably emphasize         .

   A. cultural influences   B. social behaviors

   C. independent existence   D. collective power

(   ) 3. It can be inferred that a Korean studying in the US is likely to         .

   A. use a picture of his face on Facebook

   B. adjust to American preferences quickly

   C. change his profile photos from time to time

   D. put up a photo of his apartment on Facebook

(   ) 4. According to Dr. Huang,Facebook can help to         .

   A. make up a more extended social context

   B. study the diversity of worldwide cultures

   C. promote communication between east and west

   D. combine different cultures from different aspects

  As a high school coach,I did all I could to help my boys win their games. I rooted as hard for victory as they did.

  A dramatic incident,however,following a game in which I acted as a referee,changed my view on victories and defeats. I was refereeing a league championship basketball game in New Rochelle,New York,between New Rochelle and Yonkers High.

  New Rochelle was coached by Dan O'Brien,Yonkers by Les Beck. The gym was crowded to capacity,and the volume of noise made it impossible to hear. The game was well played and closely contested. Yonkers was leading by one point as T glanced at the clock and discovered there were but 30 seconds left to play.

  Yonkers,in possession of the ball,passed off―shot―missed. New Rochelle recovered―pushed the ball up court―shot. The ball rolled tantalizingly (令人著急地) around the edge of the basket and off. The fans screamed.

  New Rochelle,the home team,recovered the ball,and tapped it in for what looked like victory. The noise was deafening (震耳欲聾的) .I glanced at the clock and saw that the game was over. I hadn't heard the final buzzer (蜂鳴器) because of the noise. I checked with the other official,but he could not help me.

  Still seeking help in this confusion,I approached the timekeeper,a young man of 17 or so. He said, "Mr. Co vino,the buzzer went off as the ball rolled off the rim,before the final tapin was made."

  I was in the unenviable position of having to tell Coach O'Brien the sad news.    "Dan,”I said, "time ran out before the final basket was tapped in. Yonkers won the game."

  His face clouded over. The young timekeeper came up. He said, "I'm sorry,Dad. The time ran out before the final basket."

  Suddenly,like the sun coming out from behind a cloud,Coach O'Brien's face lit up. He said, "That's okay,Joe. You did what you had to do. I'm proud of you."

  Turning to me,he said, "Al,I want you to meet my son,Joe."

  The two of them then walked off the court together,the coach's arm around his son's shoulder.

(   ) 5. If the buzzer went off after the final basket,the result of the game would be that

   A. Yonkers won the game by one point

   B. Yonkers won the game by two points

   C. Yonkers and New Rochelle tied the game

   D. New Rochelle won the game by one point

(   ) 6. Which of the following happened first?

   A. The buzz went off.

   B. Yonkers was leading by one point.

   C. The timekeeper spoke to me.

   D. I checked with the other official.

(   ) 7. What does "I was in the unenviable position" mean?

   A. To be a referee is a tiring thing.

   B. I had to do something awkward.

   C. It was difficult to make a judgment.

   D. I made a mistake during the game.

(   ) 8. What seemed to be more important to Dan O'Brien is         .

   A. a close game   B. winning a game

   C. his friend Al   D. his son

   Women are now as likely to use the Internet as men―about twothirds of both genders yet a new study shows that gaps remain in what each sex does online.

  American men who go online are more likely than women to check the weather,the news,sports,political and financial information,the Pew Internet and American Life Project reported Wednesday. They are also more likely to use the Internet to download music and software and to take a class.

  Online women,meanwhile,are bigger users of email,and they are also more likely to go online for religious information and support for health or personal problems.

  "For men,it's just, ' Give me the facts, ， " said Deborah Fallows,who wrote the report based on six years of Pew surveys. "For women,it's ' Let's talk about this. Are you worried about this problem?' It's keeping in touch and connecting with people in a richer way."  

  The surveys find that for many activities,such as getting travel information or looking up a phone number,men and women are equally likely to use the Internet.

  A survey from March,for instance,found that 54 percent of online men use the Internet for jobrelated research,compared with 48 percent of female Internet users. A September survey found 94 percent of online women sending email,compared with 88 percent of men.

  Women also were more likely to use email to write friends and relatives about news,worries,advice and planning. They were also more likely to credit email for improving relationships with friends,family and colleagues. Men,on the other hand,were more likely to participate in interest groups,such as fan clubs.

(   ) 1. What is the passage mainly about?

   A. To tell us why men and women use the Web slightly differently.

   B. To show us some facts how men and women use the Web.

   C. To show how women use the Web.

   D. To show the trends of the Web.

   A. More women like to download music and send email from the Web.

   B. More men like to find jobs,talk and check information online.

   C. In general,the differences between men and women to use the Internet are big.

   D. The differences of using the Web between men and women don't exist at every aspect.

(   ) 3. From the last paragraph,we can infer that         .

   A. women like to send email to improve relationships

  The long years of food shortage in this country have suddenly given way to obvious abundance. Stores and shops are choked with food. Yet,instead of joy,there is widespread uneasiness and confusion. Why do food prices keep on rising,when there seems to be so much more food about? Is the abundance only temporary,or has it come to stay? Does it mean that we need to think less now about producing more food at home? No one knows what to expect.

  The recent growth of export surpluses (過剩) on the world food market has certainly been unexpectedly great,partly because of two strange successful grain harvests. North America is now being followed by a third. Most of Britain's overseas suppliers of meat,too,are offering more this year and home production has also risen. 

  But the effect of all this on the food situation in this country has been made worse by a rise in food prices,due chiefly to the gradual cutting down of government support for food. The shops are overstocked with food not only because there is more food available,but also because people,frightened by high prices,are buying less of it.

  Moreover,the rise in domestic prices has come at a time when world prices have begun to fall,with the result that imported food,with the exception of grain,is often cheaper than the homeproduced variety. And now grain prices,too,are falling. Consumers are beginning to ask why they should not be enabled to benefit from this trend.

  The significance of these developments is not lost on farmers. The older generations have seen it all happen before. Despite the present price and market guarantees,farmers fear they are about to be pressed between cheap food imports and a shrinking home market. Present production is running at 51 percent above prewar levels,and the government has called for an expansion to 60 percent by 1956;but repeated Ministerial advice is carrying little weight and the expansion programme is not working very well.

(   ) 1. Why is there " widespread uneasiness and confusion”about the food situation in Britain?

   A. The abundant food supply is not expected to last.

   B. Britain is importing less food.

   C. Despite the abundance,food prices keep rising.

   D. Britain will cut back on its production of food.

(   ) 2. The main reason for the rise in food prices is that         .

   A. people are buying less food

   B. the government is providing less financial support for agriculture

   C. domestic food production has decreased

   D. imported food is driving prices higher

(   ) 3. The government's expansion programme didn't work very well because         .

   A. farmers were uncertain about the financial support the government guaranteed

   B. farmers were uncertain about the benefits of expanding production

   C. farmers were uncertain about whether foreign markets could be found for their produce

   D. the older generation of farmers were strongly against the programme

(   ) 4. What did the future look like for Britain's food production at the time this article was written? ^

   A. The fall in world food prices would benefit British food producers.

   B. An expansion of food production was at hand.

   C. British food producers would receive more government financial support.

   D. It looks depressing despite government guarantees.
