For three years, no matter _3_ the weather was like, she was always waiting

11、at the bus stop around 8:00 am. On _4_ days, she wore heavy clothes and a pair of woolen gloves. Summertime _5_ out neat, belted cotton dresses and a hat pulled low over her sunglasses. _6_, she was an ordinary working woman. Of course, I _7_ all this only after she was seen no more. It was then tha

12、t I realized how _8_ I expected to see her each morning. You might say I _9_ her. “Did she have an accident? Something _10_?” I thought to myself about her _11_. Now that she was gone, I felt I had _12_ her. I began to realize that part of our _13_ life probably includes such chance meetings with fa

13、miliar _14_: the milkman you see at dawn, the woman who _15_ walks her dog along the street every morning, the twin brothers you see at the library. Such people are _16_ markers in our eyes. They add weight to our _17_ of place and belonging.Think about it. _18_, while walking to work, we mark where

Out of the corner of my _6_, I saw the curtains seem to move when there was no _7_. A tiny sound in the f

19、loor would seem a hundred times louder than in the daylight. My _8_ would run wild, and my heart would beat fast. I would _9_ very still so that the "enemy" would not discover me. Another of my childhood fears was that I would get lost, _10_ on the way home from school. Every morning I get

20、 on the school bus right near my home-that was no _11_. After school, _12_, when all the buses were _13_ up along the street, I was afraid that I'd get on the wrong one, and be taken to some _14_ neighborhood. On school or family trips to a park or museum, I wouldn't _15_ the leaders out of

21、my sight. Perhaps one of the worst fears _16_ all I had as a child was that of not being liked or _17_ by others.

28、weekend.“The teaching assistant was serious. I'm doing poorly, and I might fail chemistry. In that case I would have to leave Furnell. I don't want to go home and find a job” From that weekend he started studying very hard. In addition, he started to do all his assignments and to go to lab e

29、very week. After a month, he was able to answer almost all the quiz questions correctly.“I'm happy to see that you're doing better in this course”the teaching assistant said to Walter.“Yeah, me too. It's a challenge(挑戰(zhàn)) to study every afternoon when I felt like playing football or video

33、s. If I won a spelling contest(競賽) at school, he was on top of the world. Later in life whenever I got a promotion(提升), I'd call my father right away and he'd rush out to tell all his friends. In 1970,when I was named president of the Ford Motor Company, I don't know which of us was more

35、who was always trying new things. He was the first person in Allentown to buy a motorcycle. Unfortunately, my father and his motorcycle didn't get along too well. He fell off it so often that he got rid of it just a month after buying it. As a result, he never again trusted any vehicle with less

36、 than four wheels.Because of that motorcycle, I wasn't allowed to have a bicycle when I was growing up. Whenever I wanted to ride a bike, I had to borrow one from a friend.

41、e first discovered by a German scientist, Wilhelm Konrad Rontgen, in 1895, almost by accident. He and several other scientists were experimenting with passing electric currents through certain gases in a special glass tube from which the air had been removed.One day Rontgen noticed that, even when t

42、he tube was covered with black paper, some strange kind of radiation was coming through and making a screen nearby glow. Rontgen could not see anything coming out of the tube, but then he discovered that if he put the screen in the next room on the other side of a closed door, the rays still seemed

43、to affect it. The glowing screen showed that the rays could pass not only through black paper but also through wood.The next thing he found out was that if he put his hand between the rays and a photographic plate, the rays would print a shadow of the bony framework of his hand on the plate. In fact

44、, the rays could pass as easily through the fleshy part of his hand as through the black paper, but hardly at all through the bone. So Rontgen made the first X- ray picture of a hand, showing just how the bones in the hand fit together.64.The screen didn't stop glowing even when _.A. it was move

45、d to the next room B. it was moved to the other side of the roomC. the door was closed D. the black paper was removed from the tube65. Rontgen put his hand between the rays and a photographic plate in order to _.A. stop the radiation B. make an X ray photo of itC. find out more about the rays D. see

46、 through the bones of his hand66. The rays proved to be incapable of passing through.A. wood B. flesh C. bone D. black paper67. From the passage, we know X rays are_.A. invisible B. changeable C. white D. brightDUnder normal conditions the act of communication requires the presence of at least two p

47、ersons: one who sends and one who receives the communication. In order to communicate thoughts and feelings, there must be a conventional system of signs of symbols which mean the same to the sender and the receiver.The means of sending communications are too numerous and varied for systematic class

48、ification, therefore, the analysis must begin with the means of receiving communication. Reception of communication is achieved by our senses. Sight, heating, and touch play the most important roles. Smell and taste play very limited roles, for they cannot receive intellectual expression from fully

49、developed systems of signs and symbols.Examples of visual communication are gesture and mimicry (模仿). Although both frequently accompany speech, there are systems that rely solely on sight, such as those used by deaf and dumb persons. Another means of communication visually is by signals of fire, sm

50、oke, flags and flashing lights. Feelings may be simply communicated by touch, such as by handshaking or backslapping, although a highly developed system of hand striking has enabled blind, deaf, and dumb persons to communicate intelligently. Whistling to someone, applauding in a theater, and other f

51、orms of communication by sound rely upon the ear as a receiver. The most fully developed form of auditory communication is, of course, the spoken language.The means of communication mentioned so far have two features in common: they last only a short time and the persons involved must be relatively

52、close to each other. Therefore, all are restricted in time and space.68. The author explains he will deal with reception of communication first because _A. communication actually takes place when the message is receivedB. there are more means of receiving than of sending communicationC. reception of

53、 communications involves use of the sensesD. it is difficult to organize by typing the means of sending communication69. Persons who cannot see, hear, or speak are able to communicate through a system of _.A. gesturing B. handshaking C. backslapping D. handstriking70. The author specifically mention

54、s that speech is _.A. often used when communicating by touchB. necessary for satisfactory communication by gestureC. the only highly developed system of communicationD. the most developed form of communication based on hearing71. Which of the following statements about communication by touch is true

55、?A. Touch is less important than taste as a means of communication.B. There is no well-developed system of communication based on touch.C. It is possible to communicate intelligently by touch alone.D. Touch must accompany visual communication.EMany a young person tells me he wants to be a writer. I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there's a big difference between “being a writer” and writing. In most cases these
