33、rmation given in the passage.AJascha Richter once sang “dont need too much talking without saying anything” to reveal his lonely feeling in a crowd. Dad always told me never to ever reveal my true opinions towards other people if such opinions are negative. He said this is the “Chu Shi Zhe Xue”, the

34、 philosophy of dealing with social network. It seems that everybody here just follows this philosophy very, very well. Friends. I would say that if I were given true friendship I would definitely treasure it with my greatest care. If I really regard someone as my close friend, I would never leave he

35、r alone whenever shes in need, either financially or mentally. And I always believe, as long as I treat people with whole-hearted honesty, I would have some rewardsat least, just ONE true friend of the same gender（性别）. Sometimes I just miss my friends in China. Perhaps when we became friends, we wer

36、e still young, too young to have been polluted by any dirt in the society. But here, it is simply different. It seems that all of us have learnt how to SURVIVE in a foreign land and such an experience actually makes us learn how to extract (榨取) the most benefits from the surroundings in order to sur

37、vive. All are friends around me. Ive looked through all the dark sides of their personalities and yet I have to pretend that I know nothing. THEY ARE GOOD. THEY ARE GOOD. AND WE ARE FRIENDS. And then I can make myself comfortable enough to talk to people I hate the most. And of course, they dont say

38、 any words truly from their hearts. Neither do I. But, sometimes I just feel unwilling to talk to these people. Sometimes, I just want to be alone, quietly, without being forced to listen to their gossip or other useless words. “Standing on a mountain highLooking at the moon through a clear blue sky

43、er _ in this passage. A. happiness B. homesickness C. sadness D. loneliness B “Hows the basketball coming on?” I put down my drink and looked across at the next table. I was curious about that because both the man and the woman were at least 65. “Oh, Im not playing much basketball these days,” the w

44、oman replied. “But Im getting much better at golf.” Whats this, I thought. I opened my packet of crisps, thoughtfully. “Im still pretty hopeless at chess, Im afraid,” the man said. “It beat me on level one this morning.” The penny dropped. These two were the proud owners of computer games. Its very

45、likely that one of the results of the development of the silicon chip (硅片) will be that a lot of people will have more exciting ways to spend their leisure time. It already has. Space invader machines are now a familiar sight everywhere. A lot of people play them, and some, particularly school child

46、ren, get remarkably high scores. How, one wonders, do they find the time (and money) to become so good? If you have your own computers, the possibilities are endless. You can play any active sports without stepping out of your living room. You can become an expert at chess or backgammon (a kind of g

47、ame) without ever playing with another human being. Indeed, human beings arent needed at all. So, what of the future? Will we see school children stealing or even robbing to feed space invader machines? Will football grounds lie empty as families sit at home playing video football, or watching the n

48、ational video football championship? Perhaps, it wont go that far. But we wont have to wait long for the Video Olympics. Im sure of that. Back in the pub, I stood up, took out 20 pence, and went over to the space invader machine. I may not be much good at beating computers at backgammon, but any spa

52、riter is fond of playing video games D. the write is better at “backgammon” than “space invader”CAn 18th-century statesman Edmund Burke once said, “All that is needed for the success of a misguided cause is that good people do nothing.” One such cause now seeks to end biomedical research because of

53、the theory that animals have rights to decide whether to be used in research. Scientists need to respond forcefully to animal rights advocates, whose arguments are puzzling the public and threatening advances in health knowledge and care. Leaders of the animal rights movement attack biomedical resea

54、rch because it depends on public funding, and few people understand the process of health care research. Hearing false reports of cruelty to animals in research settings, many are puzzled that anyone would harm an animal on purpose.For example, a grandmotherly woman setting up an animal rights booth

55、 at a recent street fair was giving out sheets that encouraged readers not to use anything that comes from or is tested in animalsno meat, no fur, no medicines. Asked what will happen when epidemics(传染病) return, she said. “Dont worry, scientists will find some way of using computers.” Such well-meaning people just dont understand.Scientists must communicate their message to the public in an understandable wayin human terms, not in the language of biology. We need to make clear the connection between animal research and a grandmothers organ replacement, a fathers bypass operat
