24、aller is a girl in her early teens, who is crying bitterly. I have to talk in a soft voice. Comfort falls on the child's ear, decorated with, "You're a good girl," and "No, you did nothingwrong." Eventually the sobbing (抽噎 ) stops altogether. Finally the child says "
25、Thank you, lady".I never lose my temper at the caller. Never. But the air has been blue a few times after my hanging up from a difficult person. It still amazes me that people call us because they feel we are gifted and that we have information that can help them; for the most part that's t
26、rue.My third caller is barely out of high school. She has a part time job at McDonald's, still lives at home, and wants to know how soon she's going to get pregnant. The fact she doesn't have a boyfriend seems more important to her than how she could possibly be responsible for a child.
27、When no babies are seen in the near future (Thank the Gods!) she hangs up, voicing her unhappiness at the outcome. She'll call around until she finds someone who will tell her what she wants to hear.Failing that as a solution, I sometimes take a long bath. There I set free all that I am- 5 -2003
28、 级新视野3 级英语试题holding too close, lie in the warm bath and listen to some relaxing music. As a last resort (最后一招) I have a fun solution that has a few of my neighbors letting me stay at a safe distance. I go for a walk and take in all the nature and activity around me. And I usually don't feel any

34、ens was driving his tractor through a field of wheat when he discovered something strange. Some of his wheat was lying flat on the ground. The flattened (被压平的) wheat formed a circle about six meters across. Around this circle were four smaller circles of flattened wheat. In the following years more
35、and more similar circles were found in a field of wheat or corn. So people cannot help but ask the question: What causes the circles?At first, people suspected that the circles were a trick. To prove that the circles were a trick, people tried to copy them: they tried to make circles exactly like th
36、e ones the farmers had found. They couldn't do it. They couldn't enter a field of grain without leaving tracks, and they couldn't flatten the grain without breaking it. The circles are apparently not a trick.Many people believe that beings from outer space are making the circles. Some th
37、ink that the beings are trying to communicate with us from far away and that the circles are messages from them. Others believe that the beings have actually landed on earth and that the circles are marks left by their spaceships. Several times people reported seeing strange flying objects near fiel
38、ds where circles later appeared.Scientists say they're not sure what causes them. They have suggested several theories. For example, some scientists say that "microbursts" of wind created the circles. A microburst is a downward rush of cool air the same downward rush of air that someti
39、mes causes an airplane to crash. Others scientists say that forces within the earth cause the circles to appear. But circles often appear in forms. It is hard to believe that any natural force could create those forms. And recently farmers have discovered not only circles but also other shapes such
40、as triangles in their fields. Could any natural force- 7 -2003 级新视野3 级英语试题created a perfect triangle in a field of grain?In the summer of 1990 some scientists spent three weeks in the part of England where many circles have appeared. They had all the latest high-tech equipment. This equipment worth
41、1.8 million dollars recorded nothing. But one night, as the scientists were watching a field, circles formed in the field behind them. These circles are shown in the photograph. The scientists had neither seen nor heard anything. (402 words)41. What causes the circles?A. Teenagers.B. Farmers.C. Flyi
42、ng objects.D. None of the above.42. The thing that proves that the circles were not a trick is that _.A. two men said they made the circles themselvesB. farmers were making the circles to attract touristsC. people cannot copy the circles without leaving marks or breaking the grainD. scientists sugge
43、st theories that support the idea that circles were made by natural forces43. The circles mean _.A. that beings from outer space are trying to communicate with human beingsB. that beings from outer space have visited the earthC. that there do exist strange flying objectsD. none of the above44. The o
44、nly thing for the scientists to be happy about in the summer of 1990 is possibly _.A. that they discovered how the circles were madeB. that they saw the circles with the help of the latest high-tech equipmentC. that they were able to show the circles in a photographD. none of the above45. A proper t
45、itle for this passage is _.A. An Unsolved MysteryB. Strange Flying Objects- 8 -2003 级新视野3 级英语试题C. The Power of Natural ForcesD. The Discovery of Strange CirclesPassage 3Accidents are caused; they don?t just happen. The reason may be easy to see: an overloaded tray, a shelf out of reach, a patch of i
46、ce on the road. But more often than not there is a chain of events leading up to the misfortune-frustration, tiredness or just bad temper-that show what the accident really is, a sort of attack on oneself.Road accidents, for example, happen frequently after a family quarrel, and we all know people w
47、ho are accident-prone, so often at odds with(和 人争执) themselves and the world that they seem to cause accidents for themselves and others.By definition, an accident is something you cannot predict or avoid, and the idea which used to be current, that the majority of road accidents are caused a majori
48、ty of criminally careless drivers, is not supported by insurance statistics. These show that most accidents involve ordinary motorists in a moment of carelessness of thoughtlessness.It is not always, clear, either, what sort of conditions make people more likely to have an accident. For instance, th
49、e law requires all factories to take safety precautions and most companies have safety committees to make sure the regulations are observed, but still, every day in Britain, some fifty thousand men and women are absent from work due to an accident-noise and fatigue, boredom or worry are possible fac
50、tors which contribute to this. Doctors who work in factories have found that those who drink too much, usually people who have a high anxiety level, run three times the normal risk of accidents at work.46. This passage might be taken from _.A. a text bookB. a science fictionC. a popular magazineD. a
51、n annual report of a company47. The writer indicates that _.A. British people are often absent-minded.B. doctors should work in factories to avoid accidents.C. drivers are the only factor leading to road accidents.D. there are always some people who fail to observe regulations.48. Which of the follo
52、wing is not mentioned as a factor of accidents?A. anxietyB. tirednessC. bad weatherD. carelessness49. “Accident-prone ”(Para.2) probably means “ _. ”- 9 -2003 级新视野3 级英语试题A. liable to have accidentsB. likely to be killed in accidentsC. responsible for road accidentsD. possible to avoid accidents50. W
53、hich of the following could serve as the best title for this passage?A. Causes of AccidentsB. Prevention of AccidentsC. Results of AccidentsD. Accidents and anxietyPassage 4America?s most creative playwright today is a 47-year-old black man who grew up ina Pittsburgh slum, dropped out of secondary s
54、chool, did most of his reading at theneighborhood public library, and never saw plays until he started to write them. His name is August Wilson, and his plays, which all are about the 20 th century black experience inurban America, have won him audience?s acclaim(喝彩 ), critical approval and innumera
55、bleawards, including two Pulitzer Prizes, in 1987 for“Fences”and in 1990 for“The PianoLesson”.August Wilson was born in 1945 in Pittsburgh, of a white father and a black mother. His father , a baker of German descent, had just about abandoned the family and was rarely at home.
