weakness brings out the kindness in people. i see it every day when people hold doors for me, pour cream into my coffee, or help me to put on my coat. and i have discovered that it makes them happy.from my wheelchair experience, i see the best in people, but sometimes i feel sad because those who appear independent miss the kindness i see daily. they dont get to see this soft side of others often. we try every way possible to avoid showing our weakness, which includes a lot of pretending. but only when we stop pretending were brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness thats in them.last month, when i was driving home on a busy highway, i began to feel unwell and drove more slowly than usual. people behind me began to get impatient and angry, with some speeding up alongside me, horning (按喇叭) or even shouting at me. at the moment i decided to do something i had never done in twenty four years of driving. i put on the car flashlights and drove on at a really low speed.no more angry shouts and no more horns!when i put on my flashlights, i was saying to other drivers, “i have a problem here. i am weak and doing the best i can.” and everyone understood. several times, i saw drivers who wanted to pass. they couldnt get around me because of the stream of passing traffic. but instead of getting impatient and angry, they waited, knowing the driver in front of them was in some way weak.sometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we dont feel that way. but those are few and far between. more often, it would be better if we dont pretend

the nature of the scientific attitude, the attitude of the man or woman who studies and applies physics, biology, chemistry, geology, engineering, medicine or any other science? we all know that science plays an important role in our societies. however, many people believe that our progress depends on two different aspects of science. the first aspect is the application of the machines, products and systems of knowledge that scientists and technologists develop.the second is the application of the special methods of thought and actionthat scientists use in their work.what are these special methods of thinking and acting? first of all, it seems that a successful scientist is curious - he wants to find out how and why the universe works. he usually pays attention to problems which he notices have no satisfying explanation, andlooks for relationships even if the data available seem to be unconnected. moreover,he thinks he can improve the existing conditions and enjoys trying to solve the problems which this involves. he is a good observer, accurate, patient and objective(客观的) and uses the facts he observes to the fullest. for example, trained observers obtain a very large amount of information about a star mainly from the accurate analysis of the simple lines that appear in a spectrum(光谱). he does not accept statements which are not based on the most complete evidence available. he rejects authority as the only basis for truth. scientists always check statements and make experiments carefully and objectively.furthermore,he does not readily accept his own idea, since he knows that man is the least reliable of scientific instruments and that a number of factors tend to disturb objective investigation. lastly,he is full of imaginationsince he often has to look for relationships in data which are not only complex but also frequently incomplete. furthermore,he needs imaginationif he wants to guess how processes work and how events take place. these seem to be some of the ways in which a successful scientist or technologist thinks and acts.11. many people believe that science helps society to progress through_ a. knowledge only. b. more than one aspect. c. technology only. d. the use of machines.12. which of the following statements about a curious scientist is true?a. he doesnt find confidence and pleasure in work.b. he is interested in problems that are explained.c. he makes efforts to investigate potential connections.d. he looks for new ways of acting.13. according to the passage, a successful scientist would not_.a. easily believe in unchecked statements. b. easily criticize others research work. c. always use his imagination in work. d. always use evidence from observation.14. which word can be used to describe the data that a good scientist uses?a. complete b. objective c. complicated d. accurate15. what does the passage mainly discuss? a. application of technology. b. progress in modem society. c. scientists ways of thinking and acting. d. how to become a successful scientist. 阅读新题型what is your favorite color? do you like yellow, orange, red? 16 . do you prefer grays and blues? then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. you tend to be pessimist. at least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference,
