out his hands to beg for a few coins, do you hurry on, not _16_ what to do, or do you feel sad and hurriedly _17_ some money? what should our attitude towards beggars be? there can be no question that the world is full of terribly sad stories. it must be terrible to have no idea where our next meal is going to come from. it seems _18_ not to give some money to beggars._19_， most of the worlds great religions order us to be openhearted and _20_what we have with those less lucky than ourselves. but has the world changed? maybe what was morally right in the old days, when one knew exactly who in the village had suffered misfortune and needed help, is no longer the best idea. quite a few people will not give to beggars. let us look at their _21_.firstly, some believe that many city beggars dress up on purpose to look pitiable and actually make a good _22_ from begging. giving to beggars only encourages this sort of evil. _23_， there is the worry that the money you give will be spent on beer, wine or drugs. thirdly, there is the opinion that there is no real excuse for begging. one might be poor, but that is no reason for losing ones sense of _24_ and selfdependence.related to this is the opinion that the problem should be handled by the government rather than ordinary people. some people think beggars should go to the local government department and _25_ help.it is hard to come to any final conclusion: there are various _26_and we must deal with them differently. a few coins can save a life in some situations, and even if the money is wasted, that does not take away the moral goodness of the _27_.16a.knowing bexpectingcdemanding dsettling17a.put away b.hand over ctake in d.get out 18a.warmhearted bgenerousc.cruel d.considerate 19a.strangely bhonestly ccertainly

way to pay for it，” deluca recalls saying. “buck said, you should open a sandwich shop.”that afternoon, they agreed to be partners. and they set a goal: to open 32 stores in ten years. after doing some research, buck wrote a check for $1,000. deluca rented a storefront (店面) in connecticut, and when they couldnt cover their startup costs, buck kicked in another $1,000.but business didnt go smoothly as they expected. deluca says, “after six months, we were doing poorly, but we didnt know how badly, because we didnt have any financial controls.” all he and buck knew was that their sales were lower than their costs.deluca was managing the store and to the university of bridgeport at the same time. buck was working at his day job as a nuclear physicist in new york. theyd meet monday evenings and brainstorm ideas for keeping the business running. “we convinced ourselves to open a second store. we figured we could tell the public, we are so successful; we are opening a second store.” and they didin the spring of 1966. still, it was a lot of learning by trial and error.but the partners learnasyougo approach turned out to be their greatest strength. every friday, deluca would drive around and handdeliver the checks to pay their supplies. “it probably took me two and a half hours and it wasnt necessary but as a result, the suppliers got to know me very well, and the personal relationships established really helped out，” deluca says.and having a goal was also important. “there are so many problems that can get you down. you just have to keep working toward your goal，” deluca adds.deluca ended up founding subways sandwich, the multimilliondollar restaurant chain. 36deluca opened the first sandwich shop in order to _.asupport his familybpay for his college

ought to be growing away from your parents. you should be learning to stand on your own two feet. but take a good look at the present rebellion. it seems that teenagers are taking the same way of showing that they disagree with their parents. instead of striking out boldly on their own, most of them are clutching (紧握) at one anothers hands for reassurance.they claim they want to dress as they please. but they all wear the same clothes. they set off in new directions in music. but somehow they all end up huddled (聚在一起) round listening to the same record. their reason for thinking or acting in thusandsuch a way is that the crowd is doing it. they have come out of their cocoon (蚕茧) into a larger_cocoon.it has become harder and harder for a teenager to stand up against the popularity wave and to go his or her own way. industry has firmly carved out a teenage market. these days every teenager can learn from the advertisements what a teenager should have and be. and many of todays parents have come to award high marks for the popularity of their children. all this adds up to a great barrier for the teenager who wants to find his or her own path.but the barrier is worth climbing over. the path is worth following. you may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party. you may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records. you may have some thoughts that you dont care to share at once with your classmates. well, go to it. find yourself. be yourself. popularity will comewith the people who respect you for who you are. that is the only kind of popularity that really counts.41in this passage, the author wants to tell _.ateenagers to try to pursue their real selvesbreaders to try to be popular with people aroundcparents to try to control and guide their childrendpeople to try to understand and respect each other42the author disapproves of rebelling teenagers _.agrowing away from their parentsbfollowing the popularity trend cwalking a new way on their owndturning to their friends for help43.the phrase “larger cocoon” at the end of the second paragraph refers to _.athe distractive and variable societybthe dazzling music worldcthe parental care and lovedthe popularity wave in the society 44what does the author think of advertisements?aconvincing. binstructive.cinfluential. dauthoritative.45according to the author, what might happen when a teenager stands up against the popularity wave and follows his/her own path?ahe/she falls behind the time.bhe/she loses good friends.che/she faces all kinds of criticism.dhe/she gains valuable popularity.cbeauty has always been regarded as something praiseworthy.almost everyone thinks attractive people are happier and healthier，have better marriages and have more respectable occupations.personal consultants give them better advice for finding jobs.even judges are softer on attractive defendants(被告)but in the executive circle，beauty can become a liability.while attractiveness is a positive factor for a man on his way up the executive ladder，it is harmful to a woman.handsome male executives were thought as having more integrity than plainer men；effort and ability were thought to account for their success.attractive female executives were considered to have less integrity than unattractive ones；their success was attributed not to ability but to factors such as luck.all unattractive women executives were thought to have more integrity and to be more capable than the attractive female executives.interestingly，though，the rise of the unattractive overnight successes was attributed more to personal relationships and less to ability than that of attractive overnight successes.why are attractive women not thought to be able？an attractive woman is thought to be more feminine and an attractive man more masculine(有男子气概的)than the less attractive ones.thus，an attractive woman has an advantage in traditionally female jobs，but an attractive woman in a traditionally masculine position appears to lack the“masculine”qualities required.this is true even in politics.“when the only clue is how he or she looks，people treat men and women differently，”says anne bowman，who recently published a study on the effects of attractiveness on political candidates.she asked 125 undergraduate students to rank two groups of photographs，one of men and one of women，in order of attractiveness.the students were told the photographs were of candidates for political offices.they were asked to rank them again，in the order they would vote for them.the results showed that attractive males utterly defeated unattractive men，but the women who had been ranked most attractive invariably received the fewest votes.46the underlined word

winged, like underwater airplanes. and their noses are shaped like chainsaws.sawfish are food hunters of the sea. when a sawfish is hungry, it waves its sharptoothed snout (口鼻部) through a group of fish. then, it lifts its nose and uses its mouth to draw the injured victims.hardy (适应力强的) population of sawfish thrived in warm waters along coastlines around the world for thousands of years. over the past 200 years, however, human actions have severely endangered sawfish. threats include fishing nets that trap the huge animals, often by mistake.some people collect sawfishs snouts as prizes: one snout recently sold for nearly $1,600 online. in some asian cultures, the toothy snouts are used in ceremonies to drive evil and disease away. and sawfish are also delicious. a growing demand in asia for the fishs fins for a pricey soup has contributed to the fishs disappearance. compared with other fish, sawfish give birth late in life and at slow rates, which makes it hard for them to recover from overfishing.new efforts now aim to restore sawfish population. beginning next month, an international agreement will provide protection for all seven of the worlds sawfish species. scientists are hoping that its not too late to save the sawfish.“until 1998, this fish had never been formally studied in the united states，” says tonya wiley of the mote marine laboratory in sarasota, fia.“we didnt know such basic things as where they live, what habitat they use, how often they breed, how many young they have even what age sawfish are when they begin breeding.”through historical studies and field research, scientists have become aware of how much the fishs numbers have decreased. today, there may be 90 percent fewer sawfish than there used to be. wiley estimates that only 3,000 to 6,000 sawfish remain in us waters. sawfishsizeover 51._appearancebody: 52._ nose: like a chainsaw53._ ofhunting for foodattacking fish with 54._.drawing the injured victims with its
