Currently the country is now helping Texas build its own bullet train, a potential game-changer for transportation in the state.When it launched on October 1, 1964, the worlds first high-speed rail network was known as the “super-express of dreams.” The first line in Japans now world-famous shinkansen network was built against all odds, in the face of fierce public opposition, technical difficulties and astronomical costs. Half a century ago, the system was far humbler. In 1964, the first track was a 320-mile-long link between Tokyo and Osaka that reduced the trip from six-and-a-half hours (on conventional trains) to three hours and 10 minutes, traveling at a maximum speed of 200 miles per hour. For the first time, workers could get to meetings in one city during the day and be back home drinking a beer in the local pub that night. Not only did the train expand mobility profoundly, but also businesses appeared around the major stops as a growing emphasis on productivity swept across Japan. Today, the shinkansen network has 1,487 miles of track, with more set to open in the coming years. It seems that everything the shinkansen touches turns to city, and regions that are off the beaten track, so to speak, benefit greatly from the economic jumpstart brought by the train. New shinkansen lines are often proceeded by aggressive marketing campaigns promoting tourism in those areas, a strategy that seems to work.Despite its astronomical costs, it actually has saved more. Today, over 350,000 annual trips transport tens of millions of passengers all over Japan with efficiencythe average delay time is less than a minute. A research report titled 30 Years of High-Speed Railways: Features and Economic and Social Effects of The Shinkansen by Hiroshi Okada, estimates that the economic impact from the shinkansen train network, based on the time saved from faster travel, is approximately 500 billion ($4.8 billion USD) per year. Okada stresses that the cultural impact is also significant, a shinkansen offers people living far from urban centers “easy access to concerts, exhibitions, theaters, etc., enabling them to lead fuller lives.”Japan has a plan, known as the One-Day Travel Initiative. Its goal: regardless of where you are in Japan, it should only take you three hours to get to the nearest major regional city (Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, Sapporo or Fukuoka). The planned impact of this hyper-mobility is to discourage the tide of migration toward urban centers, like Tokyo, and encourage decentralization.58. The underlined phrase in Paragraph 2 probably means “_”. A. opposed to traditional beliefsB. despite some major barriers C. based on impractical fantasiesD. in spite of poor planning59. According to Okada, what benefit does a shinkansen bring to people living far from urban centers? A. Saving more travelling time.B. Creating massive employment. C. Enjoying a more colorful life.D. Accumulating vast wealth.60. What is the main purpose of the One-Day Travel Initiative? A. To promote even distribution of population. B. To advocate urban lifestyle among migrants. C. To satisfy the increasing needs of urban centers. D. To include more citizens in urban centers.CThe American BystanderOn a humid subway ride into work a few days ago, a woman on the other end of my car had a seizure (病情突然发作). All of a sudden, I heard her let out a painful sigh as she collapsed. For several minutes, the train continued down the track, and everyone in the car just stared at the woman. Finally, at the next stop a man informed the operator of what had happened and called 911. Luckily the woman came to herself as the EMTs carried her off the train. Ever since, Ive been puzzled by the same question why didnt anyone do anything? And more importantly, why didnt I do anything?Weve learned about the commonly referenced bystander effecta psychological phenomenon in which individuals will avoid offering help to a person in need when other people are present. The bystander effect is attributed to two different psychological processes: social influenceindividuals in a group will monitor and imitate other group members behaviorand shift of responsibilityindividuals will cease to help because they believe that someone else will. Even though most people probably havent witnessed a woman having a seizure on the subway, Im sure if asked, anyone could think of a time when they could have helped and simply didnt. In fact, I know that we have all experienced the bystander effect, because I believe it is one of American societys most common headaches. Anyone who follows the news can tell you that most of what we hear or read about these days is another death or another hate crime committed right in our own country. Consider the most recent theatre shooting in Nashville. The headlines read Another Theatre Shooting, Gunman is dead. When we read that headline or heard it on the news, most of us just acknowledged how sad it was, then told ourselves that there is nothing we can do to help and assumed that someone else would. If America is just one large group of witnesses, all while telling ourselves that someone else most certainly will step in, how can we hope to shake the hold of this social psychological spell? The solution lies solely within us, to know the difference between doing what is justifiable and doing what is right, helping those in need when we have the means and opportunity to do so.I want to be like the man on the subway who told the operator about the womans seizure, because as soon as he did, people followed suit and offered help. We have the power to choose whether to justify passivity or actively decide to do the right thing, and as a society I believe we ought to break free from our psychological tendency to just stand by.61. What was the most passengers attitude towards the womans seizure? A. Indifferent.B. Skeptical.C. Enthusiastic. D. Concerned.62. The psychological explanation for the fact that most people hesitate to help is that _. A. they need heroes or good examples to learn from B. they believe such cases are none of their business C. they fear that their behavior will be imitated by others D. they count on other group members to give a helping hand63. What can we learn from the theatre shooting in Nashville? A. The mass media are only too concerned about crimes and deaths. B. The majority of the US citizens are suffering from crimes. C. People get too accustomed to pay adequate attention to crimes. D. Media coverage is inconsistent with what the Americans assume. 64. As far as the author is concerned, the key to solving such an effect lies in _. A. the necessary means and opportunity to help others B. the essential power to display psychological tendency C. the acute awareness of making a right choice D. the determined effort to help whoever is in need of helpDThe first time she saw Bryce Loski, she flipped. The first time he saw Juli Baker, he ran. For six years of living close by, they had played the same game of cat-and-mouse (Juli was the cat; Bryce was the unfortunate mouse).For years Juli dreamed of one thing: her first kiss from the boy. Nothing else seemed to matter. But when Julis favorite sycamore tree is threatened by developers, things begin to change. She begins to see things and places and people in a different light. Things, for years, she thought to be important, become things she can live without; and people she thought to be the center of her universe, become nothing more than a star in a faraway galaxy.Things begin changing with Bryce also. It all begins with the eggswhich then cause a domino effect of changes with his relationships with his best friend, his father, the Bakers and, ultimately, Juli. I had seen this book on the shelf at bookstores for years, but never bothered to pick it up because it looked to be another book from Jerry Spinelli (not exactly my favorite author in the world) and so, continually, I would walk past it without giving it a second glance. If by chance I had picked it up, I most likely would not have read it, since the summary on the back didnt seem too appealing. It wasnt until a couple of weeks ago that I heard about Flipped the movie. I read an interview with Callan McAuliffe (the actor who portrays Bryce) and thought that Flipped was a romance right up my alley; cute, innocent and as far from Jane Austin as you could get. After reading the interview and a summary of the movie, I found the plot-line to be somewhat appealing and a definite breath of fresh air opposed to the dark material I have been recently reading and writing. I found the book a few days later in a Goodwill bookstore and
