21、tead of punishing my brother, instead of 44 or yelling or shouting, he sat down, took the pen from my brothers hand and then wrote in the book himself, alongside the 45 John had made: “Johns word 1959, aged two. How many times have I looked into your 46 face and into your warm, black eyes looking up

22、 at me and thanked God for the one who has now scribbled in my new hymnbook.

27、-working thief. With the shops so crowded and the staff so busy, it does not require any extraordinary talent to help yourself to one or two little things and escape unnoticed. It is known, in the business, as “hoisting”. But the hoisting game is not what it used to be, even at the height of the sal

28、es, shoplifters today never know if they are being watched by one of those evil little balls that hang from the ceilings of so many department stores above the most desirable goods. As if that was not trouble enough for them, they can now be filmed at work and forced to attend a showing of their per

29、formance in court. Selfridges was the first big London store to fix closed-circuit video-tape equipment to watch its sales floors. In October last year the store won its first court case for shoplifting using as evidence a videotape clearly showing a couple stealing dresses. It was an important test

30、 case which encouraged other stores to fix similar equipment. When the balls, called sputniks, first make an appearance in shops, it was widely believed that their only function was to frighten shoplifters. Their somewhat ridiculous appearance, the curious holes and red lights going on and off, cert

31、ainly make the theory believable. It did not take long, however, for serious shoplifters to start showing suitable respect. Soon after the equipment was in operation at Selfridges, store detective Chadwick was sitting in the control room watching a woman secretly putting bottles of perfume into her

32、bag. “As she turned to go,” Chadwick recalled, “she suddenly looked up at the sputnik and stopped. She could not possibly have seen that the camera was trained on her because it is completely hidden, but she must have had a feeling that I was looking at her.” “For a moment she paused, but then she r

33、eturned to shelves and started putting everything back. When she had finished, she opened her bag towards the camera to show it was empty and hurried out of the store.”56The sputniks hanging from the ceiling are intended _. Ato watch the most desirable goods Bto make films that can be used as eviden

34、ce Cto frighten shoplifters by their appearance Dto be used as evidence against shoplifters57The case last October was important because _.Athe store got the dresses back Bthe equipment was able to frighten shopliftersCother shops found out about the equipment Dthe kind of evidence supplied was acce

35、pted58 The woman stealing perfume _. Aguessed what the sputniks were for Bwas frightened by its shape Ccould see the camera filming her Dknew that the detective had seen her 59 The womans action before leaving the store shows that she _.Awas sorry for what she had done Bdidnt want to take what she h

36、ad picked up Cwas afraid she would be arrested Dwanted to prove she had not intended to steal anything B Babies are not just passing idle time when they stare goggle-eyed at the televisionthey are actually learning about the world，U.S. researchers said. Parents may want to limit what their babies se

37、e on television，based on the study，said Donna Mumme，assistant professor of psychology at Tufts University in Boston，who led the research. “Children as young as 12 months are making decisions based on the emotional reactions of adults around them，” Mumme said in a statement. “It turns out that they c

38、an also use emotional information they pick up from television. This means that adults might want to think twice before they speak in a loud and harsh voice or let a baby see television programs intended for an older person. ”Mummes team already knew that babies watch other children and adults for i

39、nformation about the world. A mother urging her baby to eat some “yummy” soup or a brother crying in fear when a dog approaches can influence a babys reaction. Mummes team tested babies to determine if television has the same influence，showing actors reacting on a videotape to objects such as red sp

40、iral letter holder，a blue bumpy ball，and a yellow garden hose attachment. Babies aged 10 months or 12 months were later given the same objects to play with. Ten-month-olds did not seem to be influenced by the videos，but the 1-year-olds were. When the actors acted neutrally or positively to an object

41、，the babies happily played with them. But if the actor had seemed afraid or disgusted，the babies would avoid the object.60The underlined word may probably mean_. Aunpleasant Bcruel Cnoisy Dupset61Which of the following is Mummes conclusion?ASmall babies should not be allowed to watch television prog

42、rams.BAdults need to think twice before they act in front of small babies.CTV programs provide small babies with all the information they need. DOne-year-olds can be emotionally influenced by TV programs.62Mumme reached his conclusion by _.Ameasuring the time babies spent in front of TVBmaking TV pr

43、ograms and advertisements for kidsCshowing actors how to react to blue bumpy ballsDobserving small babies reactions to TV programs63 Which of the following may the study lead to according to the researchers?AParents may want to limit what their babies see on television.BActors may try to behave them

44、selves well in front of babies.CBabies may be allowed to choose what they see on TV.DScientists may stop ignoring babies emotional world. CAfter years of study, I have known there are only two types of people in this world：those who get to the airport early and those who arrive as the plane is about

45、 to take off.If there were any justice in this world, the early-airport people would be rewarded for doing the right thing and the late-airport people would be punished. But the early-airport people get ulcers (溃疡), heart attacks and bite their fingernails to the bone. The late-airport people are ha

46、rdly aware that they are flying.A guy of that kind once said, “Dont hurry. If you miss your flight, its because God didnt want you to go.” This is clearly a guy who is never going to get an ulcer.Early-airport people suffer another “name”. They are called exactly what they arewimps(懦夫). I know I am

47、an early-airport person for years. My luggage will get on the plane first, which makes it the last luggage they take off the plane after landing.Another strange thing：No matter how early I showed up, I was always told that someone had called two or three years ahead of me and asked for the best seat

48、. I figured it was a trick. I figured there was someone in America who called every airline every day and said, “Is that wimp Simon flying somewhere today If he is, give me his seat. ”After a lifetime arguing with my wife over whether I really have to pack 24 hours in advance and set the alarm clock

49、 four hours ahead, I have learned another fact about early-airport people and late-airport people:They always marry each other.64We can learn from the passage that_.Alate-airport persons often get ulcers or heart attacksBearly-airport persons are always relaxed during the flightCearly-airport person

50、s get their luggage first after landingDlate-airport persons always take things easy65The fifth paragraph mainly tells us_.Athe writer is always played tricks on Bthe writer is usually fooled by airlinesCthe writers seat is always taken by someone Dthe writer has never got a good seat66The purpose o

51、f writing the passage is to_.Agive useful tips on taking a planeBoffer advice about catching a planeCexpress the writers anxiety about taking planesDshow peoples two attitudes towards catching planes67It could be inferred that the writers wife is_.Aan early-airport womanBa late-airport womanCa hot-t

52、empered womanDa sensitive womanDPets are no strangers to the White House. Many of American Presidents have been animal lovers. In recent times, White House pets have been tame dogs and cats. Long ago, however, presidential pets, like our nation itself, were wilder!In 1806, President Thomas Jefferson

53、 lived in the White House. Passers-by often caught sight of his pet bears. Explorers had discovered these fierce bears, caught a pair of small ones, and sent them to Jefferson. While the President was excited about his bears, his enemies in Congress constantly laughed at his pets, calling the White

54、House “The Presidents Bear Garden”.By 1825, the bears were long gone from the White House scene. Now, the building was home to President John Quincy Adams and his crocodile. The green beast actually belonged to General Lafayette, a French hero who had helped the United States win the Revolutionary War. When Lafayette asked Adams to keep the crocodile for him, t
