D
We all know what it is like to be unable to turn your head because of a cold in the muscles of your neck, or because an unexpected twist has made your neck ache and stiff. Your whole body feels tight. The slightest move makes you jump with pain. Nothing could be worse than a pain in the neck.
That is why we use phrase to describe some people who give you the same feeling. We have all met such people.
One is the man who always seems to be clapping his hands—often at the wrong time—during a performance in the theater. He keeps you from hearing the actors.
Even worse are those who can never arrive before the curtain goes up and play begins. They come hurrying down to your row of seats. You are comfortably settled down, with your hat and heavy coat in your lap. You must stand up to ;et them pass. You are proud of your self—control after they have settled into their seats…Well, what now…Good God, one of them is up again. He forgot to go to the men’s room, and once more you have to stand up, hanging on to your hat and coat to let him pass. Now, that is “a pain in the neck.”
Another, well—known to us all, is the person sitting behind you in the movies. His mouth is full of popcorn; he is chewing loudly, or talking between bites to friends next to him. None of them remain still. Up and down, back and forth, they go—for another bag of popcorn, or something to drink.
Then, there is the main sitting next to you at a lunch counter smoking a smelly cigar. He wants you to enjoy it too, and blows smoke across you food into your mouth.
We must not forget the man who comes into a bus or subway car and sits down next to you, just as close as you will let him. You are reading the newspaper and he leans over and stretches his rock so that he can read the paper with you. He may even turn the paper to the next page before you are ready for it.
We also call such a person a “rubber neck,” always stretching his neck to where it does not belong, like neighbors who watch all your visitors. They enjoy invading your privacy. People have a strong dislike for rubbernecks. They hate being spied upon.
68．Where can you find this passage?
A．Medicine dictionaries. B．Social science books,
C．Kids’ comic books. D．Science text books.
69．How do you feel when late comers walk back and forth in front of you in a cinema?
A．Ignored. B．Bored. C．Disturbed D．Relaxed.
70．A “rubber neck” often .
A．says bad words behind people.
B．quarrels face to face with neighbors.
C．bargains the price with sales women
D．a(chǎn)sks about other people’s business
71．Which of the follow is a “pain on the neck”?
A．Someone who helps you find your seat in a movie theatre.
B．Someone who smokes in a smoking section on a train.
C．Someone who throws trash out of his car window on the highway.

D
We can make mistakes at any age . Some mistakes we make are about money . But most mistakes are about people . “ Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen ?” “ When I got that great job , did Jim really feel good about it , as a friend ? Or did he envy my luck ?” When we look back , doubts like these can make us feel bad . But when we look back , it’s too late .
Why do we go wrong about our friends—or our enemies ? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning . And if we don’t really listen we miss the feeling behind the words . Suppose someone tells you , “ You’re a lucky dog ,” and that’s being friendly . But “ lucky dog ”? There’s a bit of envy in those words . Maybe he doesn’t see it himself . But bringing in the “dog ” bit puts you down a little , what he may be saying is that he doesn’t think you deserve your luck .
“ Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for ” is another noise that says one thing and means another . It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole . But is he ? Wrapped up in this phrase is the thought that your problem isn’t important . It’s telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you haven’t got a date for Saturday night .
How can you tell the real meaning behind someone’s words ? One way is to take a good look at the person talking . Do his words fit the way he looks ? Does what he says agree with the tone of voice ? His posture ? The look in his eyes ? Stop and think . The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake .

D
We can achieve knowledge either actively or passively. We achieve it actively by direct experience, by testing and proving an idea, or by reasoning.
We achieve knowledge passively by being told by someone else. Most of the learning that takes place in the classroom and the kind that happens when we watch TV or read newspapers or magazines is passive. As we are used to passive learning, it’s not surprising that we depend on it in our everyday communication with friends and co-workers.
Unfortunately, passive learning has a serious problem. It makes us tend to accept what we are told even when it is nothing but hearsay and rumor (謠言).
Did you ever play the game Rumor? It begins when one person writes down a message but doesn’t show it to anyone. Then the person whispers it, word for word, to another person. That person, in turn, whispers it to still another, and so on, through all the people playing the game. The last person writes down the message word for word as he or she hears it. Then the two written statements are compared. Typically, the original message has changed.
That’s what happens in daily life. The simple fact that people repeat a story in their own words changes the story. Then, too, most people listen imperfectly. And many enjoy adding their own creative understanding to a story, trying to improve on it, stamping (打上標記) it with their own personal style. Yet those who hear it think they know.
This process is also found among scholars and authors: A statement of opinion by one writer may be re-stated as fact by another, who may in turn be quoted by yet another; and this process may continue, unless it occurs to someone to question the facts on which the original writer based his opinion or to challenge the explanation he placed upon those facts.
48. According to the passage, passive learning may occur in _______.
A. doing a medical experiment B. solving a math problem
C. visiting an exhibition D. doing scientific reasoning
49. The author mentions the game Rumor to show that _____.
A. a message may be changed when being passed on
B. a message should be delivered in different ways
C. people may have problems with their sense of hearing
D. people tend not to believe in what they know as rumor
50. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Active learning is less important.
B. Passive learning may not be reliable.
C. Active learning occurs more frequently.
D. Passive learning is not found among scholars.
