Wet to the skin, she decided to flag down the next 39 . A young white man stopped to help her-generally unheard of in those conflict-filled 1960s. The man 40 her to safety in his car, and hired a taxicab(a kind of car) for her. She seemed to be in a great 41 . She wrote down his address, thanked him and drove away. Several days went by and a 42 came to the mans door. To his surprise, a very big color TV was delivered to his home. A special note was 43 to it.

I was worriedI had to cheer him up and help ourselves financially.As an advisor for top panies and a teacher in creative thinking at the college of New Jersey for years, I thought of a good plan. What if we undertake an adventure while making money from it? As a family, wed always talked about traveling more, but wed been tied to routines. Now I saw no point in sitting around worrying when we could see the country. Wed take our three young kids, teach them on the road. It was the perfect time before they reached high school. Wed rent out our house.Michael disagreed at first but realized that with his cell phone, and puter, he could work anywhere.We listed our house for rent and created a brand strategy, logo, and website for us-familyofftrack-and persuade five panies to support us. Their ads on our site would help pay travel costs, and wed promote their brands on our trip in exchange for their support.With everything done, we took off on April 3. All spring and summer, we visited national landmarks and treasured lands. By August when we returned home, Michaels pany continued to slide and now may have to close down. But weve made the travel a permanent part of our lives. Whats more, with a Chicago-based production pany Ive developed the Family Off Track brand by creating videos, educational programs and exhibits. And Michael has new ideas for management businesses. Its great to see the spark in his eyes again.Now I feel it even more. Together we taught our kids a lesson: Nobody ever made history by living 100 percent by the book in times of recession(不景气)56.

A good book is the best of friends, the same today and foreverBWisdom teeth are normally the last teeth to appear. This usually happens when people are in their late teen years or early twenties in other words, when they are older and wiser.Wisdom teeth can grow into place normally and never cause a problem. But often there is not enough room for them in the mouth. They might crowd other teeth. Sometimes they even push sideways through the gums (齿龈).An impacted wisdom tooth is one that fails to pletely rise through the gums the term is erupt. Wisdom teeth that only partially break through can leave space for bacteria to enter around the tooth. Infection(感染) is a risk in these cases.Wisdom teeth that are not well lined and bee impacted(受影响，冲击) are often removed. People should have the placement of their wisdom teeth examined between the ages of sixteen and twenty. X-rays can show wisdom teeth that are below the gums. The American Dental Association says removal is generally advised when wisdom teeth only partly break through the gums. Removal is also advised if there is a chance that poorly lined wisdom teeth will damage other teeth. The best time to remove is before the teeth cause any problems or pain. Young adults are the best candidates for wisdom teeth removal.But why do we have wisdom teeth if we often need to get them removed? One theory has to do with our diets. Scientists say the diet of prehistoric humans probably required more chewing teeth. Life was probably a little rougher on the teeth back then, too. So it was good to have extras.60. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true? A. Just older and wiser people can have wisdom teeth. B. Wisdom teeth can cause problems if not in their right place. C. Impacted wisdom teeth cant grow out of the gum fully. D. Wisdom teeth that only partly break can get bacterial infections.61. Wisdom teeth should be removed _. A. when they break through the gums B. when they are below the gums C. if they are not well lined or get impacted D. if they take up enough room in the mouth62. We can learn from the passage that _. A. impacted wisdom teeth have the risk of getting infected B. ancient humans needed chewing teeth because of their happy life C. older adults are the best candidates for wisdom teeth removal D. more chewing teeth are needed for diet of modern humans63. The main purpose of the passage is to _. A. advise B. persuade C. ment D. introduceCLondon Photography Mystery TourHeres the tour thats voted 3rd best tour in London on the Best Things to Do on Trip Advisor!

For most students, math can be tough but scientists have proved that math problems can actually trigger physical pain.Scientists came to his conclusion with an in-depth experiment, which was published in the Public Library of Science One journal. They began by finding out how much participants fear math. Those involved were asked a series of questions such as how they feel when they receive a math textbook or when they walk into a math lesson.Based on their answers, participants were divided into groups. One group was made up of people who were particularly afraid of math and participants in the other group were more fortable with the subject.Both groups were then given either math tasks or word tasks.
