A

They stood outside the door – two children in shabby outgrown coats.

“Any old papers, lady?”

I was busy, I wanted to say no until I saw the snow on their clothes. And their little sandals (凉鞋) were also covered with snow.

“Come in and I’ll make you a cup of hot cocoa.”

There was no conversation. Their wet sandals left marks upon the floor. I served them cocoa and toast with jam to strengthen them against the cold outside. Then I went back to the kitchen and started again on my household.

The silence in the front room got me to look inside. The girl held the empty cup in her hands, looking at it. The boy asked in a flat voice, “Lady, are you rich?”

“Am I rich? Mercy, no! ”

I looked at my shabby sofa. The girl put her cup back in its saucer carefully.

“Your cups match your saucers, she said.”

They left then, holding their bundles of papers against the wind. They hadn’t said thank you. They didn’t need to. They had done more than that. Plain blue cups and saucers. But they matched.

I tasted the potatoes and looked at the meat. Potatoes and meat, the roof over my head, my man with a good steady job – these things matched, too.

I moved the chairs back from the fire and tidied the living room. The muddy prints of small sandals were still wet upon my floor. I let them be. I wanted them there in case I ever forget again how very rich I am.

Dr Wiseman started “the laugh lab” project in September 2001. It is the largest study of humour. Participants are invited to log on to the laugh lab website, give a few personal details , tell their favorite jokes and judge the jokes told by other people.

The project will last for a year, and the organizers hope to finally discover the world’s funniest joke. But there is also a serious purpose, the researches want to know what people from different nations and cultures find funny. And they want to find out the differences between the male and female sense of humor. The idea is that if we want to understand each other, we have to find out what makes us laugh.

This is a subject that has long interested psychologists and philosophers. Most of the time, people are not completely honest. We do things that society expects us to and say things that help us get what we want. But laughing cannot be controlled. When we laugh, we tell the truth about ourselves.

By December 2001 over 10,000 jokes had been submitted(提交). This gave the scientists enough evidence to make early conclusions. It seems that men and women do have different senses of humor, for instance.

“Our findings show the major differences in the ways in which males and females use humor,” said Dr Wiseman. “Males use humor to appear superior(优越的) to others, while women are more skilled in languages and prefer word play.”

Researchers also found that there really is such a thing as a national sense of humor. The British enjoy what is usually called “toilet humor”. But the French like their jokes short and sharp: “You’re a high priced lawyer. Will you answer two questions for $500?” “Yes. What’s the second question?”

The Germans are famous for not having a sense of humor. But the survey found that German participants were more likely to find submitted jokes funny than any other nationality. Perhaps that proves the point. Is this joke funny? I don’t know, but let’s say yes, just to be safe.

Dr Wiseman and his workmates also submitted jokes created by computer. But none of those who took part in the survey found any of them amusing. Perhaps this is relief. Computers already seem like they can do everything. At least they should leave the funny stuff to us.

45．Scientist started “the laugh lab” project ____________

A．to find the funniest joke in European countries

B．to know what funny people are from different nations and cultures

C．to find out the differences between the male and female sense of humor

D．to get more personal details about participants

C．About 10,000 jokes have been submitted from September 2001 to December 2001.

D．Scientists have collected enough evidence to make conclusions.

47．The writer gave the examples of the British, the French and the Germans .

A．to show that French people have a better sense of humour

B．to prove the British people have a sense of “toilet humour”

Experts have put forward detailed plans for a tunnel (隧道) to join Taiwan with the Chinese mainland.

The shortest proposed(建议) route would be 126 kilometers-more than twice the length of the English Channel Tunnel. And the longest proposed route would be 207 kilometers.

A recent conference in Xiamen, Fujian Province brought together more than 70 experts. The event was co-sponsored (共同发展) by universities from Taiwan and the Chinese mainland. Fujian is the province where both proposed routes would begin.

There is no direct passenger access between the mainland and Taiwan by air or sea at the moment. Experts say that it is better to start research sooner rather than later, although there is a lack of government funding. There are no technical problems to build a Taiwan tunnel. But it will require an improved political relationship across the Straits.

A professor of Tsinghua university said, “A special feature of huge projects is that the period of preparation is longer than the period of construction.”

For example, he said, the English Channel Tunnel took 14 years of planning and had been discussed for two centuries. And preparations for the huge Three Gorges dam on the Yangtze River began in the 1950s.

The Xiamen conference focused on the longest southern route, which would use the Taiwan-controlled islands of Jinmen and Penghu as stepping stones.

The first stage of the new project could be a bridge to cross the five kilometers between Xiamen and Jinmen. This would mean that travelling from Xiamen to Jinmen by car would only take five minutes.

The longest tunnel now being planned anywhere in the world is the 54-kilometer Land tunnel to link Lyon in France with Turin in Italy. The tunnel will not be completed until 2015-2020.

49．Which is the longest tunnel in the world at present?

A．The English Channel Tunnel. B．The tunnel between Lyon and Turin.

C．The Taiwan Straits tunnel. D．The passage doesn't mention it.

50．The example of English Channel Tunnel shows _______.

A．it’s not easy to complete a huge project

B．there are many problems to be solved before doing something

C．discussions among countries usually take a lot of time

D．the preparation takes longer time than the construction

51．Which of the following is NOT true?

A．Universities both at home and abroad have sponsored (赞助) the plan.

B．If the project is completed, the world's longest tunnel will appear.

C．You can’t reach Taiwan from the mainland directly at present.

D．The starting point of the proposed tunnel is in Fujian.

52．What is the possible difficulty in carrying out the plan?

A．The lack of money for the project from the government.

B．Improving the relationship between Taiwan and the mainland.

C．The detailed plans for the tunnel.

D．The technical problems with the tunnel.

Pocket Tape – Recorders “Family and Home Magazine” test what’s on the market now.

1）Pearlcorder S702 $64

This simple model at the bottom of the Olympus range scored the most points for its excellent quality of recording. Background noise hardly affects the sound and recording from a pocket is perfectly possible, but it doesn't turn off automatically（自动地）.

Tape length: 30 minutes per side. Weight ;240g.

2）Sony M9 $ 49. 95

Small and very good looking. Sony's latest offering scored most for appearance. Sounds clear, but there is slight machine noise. The big control buttons are a great improvement on some of the complicated little controls on other tape-recorders. Doesn't switch off automatically but a red light shows if the machine is still running.

Tape length: 60 minutes per side. Weight: 195g.

3）Sony M400 $ 115

Lots of little control buttons that make a noise and are difficult to use. Recording was good but machine noise lost points. Tape counter and automatic switch-off when tape has finished recording or rewinding are useful.

Tape length: 60 minutes per side. Weight: 230g.

4）Imperial OEM. MC $ 29. 95

Cheap and simple compared with the rest, but recording was good as long as there was no background noise. Use only its own make of cassette. No light to show it is on, no fast forward button and the record button makes a loud noise.

Tape length: 30 minutes per side. Weight; 285g.

5）Philips 585 $80

Handsome and simple to use, but recording is very poor at more than the recommended distance of 5 cm-designed for dictation. No recording light.

Tape length: 15 minutes per side. Weight: 220g.

There are two types of people in the world. Although they have equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life, one becomes happy, the other becomes unhappy. This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, events and the resulting effects upon their minds.

People who are to be happy fix their attention on the convenience of things. The pleasant parts of conversation, the well prepared dishes, the goodness of the wine, the fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the opposite things. Therefore, they are continually dissatisfied. By their remarks, they sour the pleasure of society, offend many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere. If this turn of mind was founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the more to be pitied. The intention of criticizing (批评) and being disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation(模拟). It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it realize its bad effects on their interests and tastes. I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help them change this habit.

Although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious results in life since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck. Those people offend many others; nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect. This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments. If they aim at getting some advantages in social position or fortune, nobody wishes them success. Nor will anyone start a step or speak a word to favor their hopes. If they bring on themselves public objections(反对), no one will defend or excuse them, and many will join to criticize their wrong doings. These should change this bad habit and be pleased with what is pleasing, without worrying needlessly about themselves and others. If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact with them. Otherwise, it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, especially when one becomes mixed up in their quarrels.

57．People who are unhappy

A．always consider things differently from others

B．usually are affected by the results of certain things

C．usually misunderstand what others think or say

D．always discover the unpleasant side of certain things

58．“The phrase” sour the pleasure of society most nearly means .

A．have a good taste with social life

B．make others unhappy

C．tend to scold others openly

D．enjoy the pleasure of life

59．We can conclude from the passage that

A．we should pity all such unhappy people

B．such unhappy people are dangerous to social life

C．people can get rid of the habit of unhappiness

D．unhappy people can not understand happy persons

60．If such unhappy persons insist on keeping the habit, the author suggests that people should .

A．prevent any communication with them

B．show no respect and politeness to them

C．persuade them to recognize the bad effects

D．quarrel with them until they realize the mistakes
