From my own past experience，I noticed how much faster I had to answer a question during a TV interview. Its as if we have pletely lost the ability to listen. We talk and talk，and we end up frightened by silenceEverywhere，people on the African continent write and tell stories. Even the nomads(流浪者)who still live in the Kalahari Desert are said to tell one another stories on their daylong wanderings，during which they search for roots and animals to hunt. A number of years ago I sat down on a stone bench outside the Teatro Avenida in Maputo. Mozambique，where 1 worked as an artistic consultant. It was a hot day, and we were taking a break，hoping that a cool gentle wind would move past. Two old African men were siring on that bench，but there was room for me，too. In Africa people share more than just water. Even when it es to shade，people are generous. I heard the two men talking about a third old man who had recently died. One of them said， “I was visiting him at his home. He started to tell me an amazing story about something that had happened to him when he was young. But it was a long story. Night came，and I decided that I should e back the next day to hear the rest. But when I arrived, he Was dead.”The man fell silent. I decided not to leave that bench until I heard how the other man would respond to what hed heard. Finally he，too，spoke. “Thats not a good way to diebefore youve told the end of your story.”What separates us from animals is the fact that we are storytelling creatures and we can listen to other peoples dreams，fears，joys，sorrows，desires and defeatsand they in turn can listen to ours. Many people make the mistake of confusing information with knowledge. They are not the same thing. Knowledge involves the interpretation of information. Knowledge involves listening. Many words will be written on the wind and the sand, or end up in store. But the storytelling will go on until the last human being stops listening. Then we can send the great record of human out into the endless universe. Who knows? Maybe someone is out there. willing to listen56. From the very beginning of the passage，we can know Europeans . A. actually lose the ability to listen B. seldom chat constantly with each other C. feel frightened when they are alone and silent D. tend to talk more and listen less57.

According to the last three paragraphs, we can know . A. no one knows exactly Why Africans are willing to listen B. information is hard to understand without interpretation C. 1istening makes the difference between information and knowledge D. the existence of humans recordings totally depends on the way of storytelling59. The passage mainly talks about .

C Scientists who discovered a new way of generating electricity from water say they may have e across an alternative source of clean energy to rival wind and solar power. The breakthrough，which scientists say is the first new way to generate electricity in 160 years，could lead to batteries that use water instead of poisonous substances. The scientists made the discovery when they were investigating what happens when tap water is forced through extremely narrow glass tubes. Water squeezed down the tubes，each of which was narrower than a tenth the thickness of a human hair, generating a small electric current that ran the length of the tube. To produce a larger electric current, the team tried forcing water through a glass water filter(滤水器)that contained thousands of narrow channels lined up side by side. “When we took a syringe(注射器)of water and squeezed it through the filter, we got enough power to light a light bulb，” said Larry Kostiuk of the University of Alberta in Canada. “The harder you push the syringe，the more electric current you get.” The current is produced because of an effect in the glass tubes. When they are filled with water, positively charged ions(阳离子)fixed in the tubes are washed away, leaving a slight negative charge on the glass surface. When water is then forced along the tube，the surface repels negatively charged ions in the water while positively charged ions are attracted down the tube. The result is a net flow of positively charged ions that sets up an electric current. According to Dr Kostiuk，no one has ever thought to use water to produce electricity in this way. “The last time someone came up with a way of generating electricity was Michael Faraday in 1839，” he said. “So this is the first new way of generating electricity in 160 years，which is why we are so excited about it. “Dr Kostiuk says water batteries might one day be used to power mobile phones and calculators，but admitted that the engineering challenges might make other applications more realistic. “Youd need to be sure it wouldnt leak，and youd need to make sure it wouldnt freeze，” he said. More likely would be to install the electricity-generating devices where water is already being pumped，such as at city water filtration sites，he said. “It could pete with wind and solar power,” he added. 63. What does the passage mainly want to tell us about? A. A kind of solar power discovered by scientists. B. A kind of new energy source found in tap water. C. The breakthrough to generate electricity 160 yeas ago. D. A kind of new battery invented without poisonous substances. 64. The underlined word “repels” in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to . A. rejects B. identifies C. attracts D. rebels65. Why were the scientists extremely happy about their new discovery? A. They were the first to find a new way to produce electricity. B. They could make electric current to light a light bulb. C. Their discovery could be used to invent water batteries. D. Their discovery was made 160 years earlier than Faradays. 66. What can we infer about potential water batteries? A. They must be used to power mobile phones and calculators. B. They have some possible disadvantages like water leaking. C. They would be needed greatly at city water filtration sites. D. They would be better than wind and solar power. DViolent winds swept the ocean，and waves thundered to shore，shaking the lookout tower at Pea Island Rescue Station. Surfinan Theodore Meekins was on watch that evening of 11 October 1896. A hurricane had struck the Outer Banks of North Carolina, and the tide was so strong that beach patrols(巡逻)had been canceled. Still，Meekins paid close attention to the horizon. This was the type of weather that could blow ships hundreds of miles off course. Offshore，the ship E. S. Newman was caught in the storm. The captain，whose wife and child were on the ship，feared the Newman would soon break up. He made the decision to beach his ship，then fired a signal，praying that someone onshore would see it. Meekins，whose eyes were trained to cut through rain and surf mists，thought he saw the signal，but so much spray(水雾)covered the lookout windows that he could hardly make sure. Still，he took no chances. After summoning(召集)the station keeper, Captain Richard Etheridge，Meekins set off a coston signal，a signal made by using lamps of different colors. Together, the two men searched the darkness for a reply. A few moments later, they saw a flash of light to the south and knew a shop was in distress. Even before the return signal burned out，Etheridge had summoned his men and begun rescue operations. For the lifesavers，the rescue of the Newman was nothing unusual. Over the years，so many ships had foundered off the Outer Banks that sailors called the region the Graveyard of the Atlantic. Noting the dangerous surf and wind conditions，Captain Etheridge quickly decided the surf boats would be impossible to control. Instead，he decided to use another way to help the survivors. The crew set off on the long journey down the beach to the scene of the wreck(海滩). Captain Etheridge hoped to fire a line from a gun to the ships mast(船桅). After the ships clew dragged the line
