I hadnt been paying attention, and I had driven a few miles an hour over the speed limit.“Can I see your license and registration?” the police officer asked me. I pulled both out for him, and he saw my Pittsburgh address on my Pennsylvania drivers license.“What are you doing here?” he asked. “Are you with the army?”“No, I am not.” I answered. I explained that I had just moved to Virginia, and I hadnt had time to re-register yet.“So what brings you here?”He had asked a direct question. Without thinking very hard, I gave him a direct answer. “Well, officer,” I said, “ since youve asked, I have cancer. I have just months to live. Weve moved down here to be close to my wifes family.”“So youve got cancer,” he said flatly. He was trying to figure me out. Was I really dying? Was I lying? He took a long look at me. “You know, for a guy who has only a few months to live, you sure look good.”He was obviously thinking: “Either this guy is pulling one big fat line on me, or hes telling the truth.” He was trying to question my honesty without directly calling me a liar. And so he had forced me to prove that I was being honest.“Well, officer, I know that I look pretty healthy. I look great on the outside, but the tumors(肿瘤) are on the inside.” And then, I dont know what possessed me, but I just did it. I pulled up my shirt, showing the operational scars.He looked at my scars. He looked in my eyes. He now knew he was talking to a dying man. Well, he wasnt taking this any further. He handed me back my license. “Do me a favor.” he said, “Slow down from now on.”The awful truth had set me free. As he went back to his police car, I had a realization. I had been a beauty who could bat her eyelashes(眉目传情) and get out of tickets. I drove home under the speed limit, and I was smiling like a beauty queen.51.The author was stopped by the police officer because_.A. he didnt have a licenseB. he forgot to re-registerC. he was seriously illD. he drove too fast52.The author moved to Virginia probably because _.A. he was homesickB. he served in the army thereC. Virginia had better hospitalsD. he could spend more time with families53.On hearing about the authors cancer, the police officer _.A. said it was an excuseB. doubted his honestyC. showed sympathy for himD. asked him to show his scars54.It can be inferred from the passage that the author was _.A. optimisticB. adventurousC. dishonestD. romanticBThe Netherlands on Monday introduced its first-ever “intelligent bicycle”, fitted with electronic devices to help bring down the high accident rate among elderly cyclists in the bicycle-mad country.Developed for the government by the Netherlands Organization for Applied Scientific Research(TNO), the intelligent bicycle runs on electricity. A mercial-available bicycle is expected to be on the market in the next two years and should sell for between 1,700 to 3,200 euros per bicycle.The devices on the bike are linked through an onboard puter with a vibrating(震动的) warning system fitted in the bicycles saddle(车座) and handlebars(车把) to warn cyclists of the ing danger. The saddle vibrates when other cyclists approach from behind, while the handlebars do the same when barriers appear ahead.“Accidents often happen when cyclists look behind them or get a fright when they are passed at high speed,” said Maurice Kwakkernaat, one of TNOs research scientists involved in the project. “The onboard system technology has already been at work in the car industry,” he said.“More and more elderly people are using a bicycle, not only for short distances, but also for longer distances,” Dutch Environment and Infrastructure Minister Melanie Schultz van Haegen told AFP. “This type of bicycle is truly needed in the Netherlands because it will help us bring down the number of elderly people who are injured every year and allow them to continue to enjoy cycling,” she said.In the Ntherlands, bicycles outnumber the population of 17 million by at least one million and there are some 25,000 km of bicycle path in the country. Those statistics are set to grow as more and more people take to two-wheeled transport, leading to an increased risk of injury.Last year, 184 cyclists died in the country, of which 124, or 67, were older than 65, according to the Central Statistics Office. The year before, 200 cyclists died, the majority of victims also being elderly.The current model weighs 25 kilograms but researchers are working on making the onboard systems smaller.55.The “intelligent bicycle” is aimed to _.A. protect the environmentB. help reduce traffic pressureC. popularize the use of bicyclesD. improve safety for elderly cyclists56.Which part of the intelligent bicycle will vibrate when other cyclists approach it from behind?A. The saddle.B. The wheels.C. The handlebars.D. The onboard puter.57.We can learn from the passage that _.A. the elderly ride bicycles wherever they goB. the elderly are planning to give up cyclingC. the number of elderly cyclists is decreasingD. the accident rate among elderly cyclists is high58.Which is the best title for the passage?A. A Test BicycleB. Elderly CyclistsC. A Smart BicycleD. A Bicycle-mad CountryCSensing phantom phone vibrations(手机虚幻震动) is a strangely mon experience. Around 80% of us have imagined a phone vibrating in our pockets when its actually pletely still. Almost 30% of us have also heard non-existent ringing. Are these signs of madness caused by digital culture? Not at all. In fact, phantom vibrations and ringing indicate a fundamental principle in psychology.Psychologists use a concept called Signal Detection Theory to guide their thinking about the problem of perceptual(感知的) judgments. Working through the example of phone vibrations, we can see how this theory explains why they are a mon and unavoidable part of healthy mental function.When your phone is in your pocket, the world is in one of two possible states: the phone is either ringing or not. You also have two possible states of mind - the judgment that the phone is ringing, or the judgment that it isnt. Obviously youd like to match these states in the correct way. True vibrations should go with “its ringing”, and no vibrations should go with “its not ringing”. Signal detection theory calls these faithful matches a “hit” and a “correct rejection”But there are two other possible binations you could mismatch true vibrations with “its not ringing” (a “miss”); or mismatch the absence of vibrations with “its ringing” (a “false alarm”). This second kind of mismatch is whats going on when you imagine a phantom phone vibration.What does that mean in terms of your phone? We can assume that people like to notice when their phone is ringing, and that most people hate missing a call. This means their perceptual systems have adjusted their bias(偏向) to a level that makes misses unlikely. The unavoidable cost is a raised likelihood of false alarms of phantom phone vibrations.The trade-off between false alarms and misses also explains why we all have to put up with fire alarms going off when there isnt a fire. It isnt that the alarms are badly designed, but rather that they are very sensible to smoke and heat and biased to avoid missing a real fire at all costs. The oute is a rise in the number of false alarms. These are inconvenient, but nowhere near as inconvenient as burning to death in your bed or office. The alarms are designed to err on the side of caution.59. The writer tries to explain phantom phone vibrations _.A. by analyzing some facts B. by giving some examplesC. from the angle of biology D. from the angle of psychology60. According to the writer, the sense of phantom phone vibration is .A. strange and mad B. harmful but avoidableC. mon and unavoidable D. universal but unhealthy61. When we judge correctly that “its not ringing”, this is called a “ ”.A. hit B. miss C. false alarm D. correct rejection62. What does the underlined part in the last paragraph mean?A. Better late than never. B. Better safe than sorry.C. Fight over the smallest things. D. He who makes no mistakes makes nothing.DEver walked to the shops only to find, once there, youve pletely forgotten what you went for? Or struggled to remember the name of an old friend? For years weve accepted that a forgetful brain is as much a part of aging as wrinkles and grew hair. But now a new book suggests that weve got it wrong.According to The Secret of the Grown-up Brain, by science writer Barbara Strauch, when it es to the important things, our brains actually get better with age. In fact, she argues that some studies have found that our brain hits its peak between our 40s and 60s-much later than previously thought.Furthermore, rather than losing many brain cells as we age, we retain them, and even produce new ones well into middle age. For years its been assumed that brain, much like the body, declines with age. But the longest, largest study into what happens to people as they age suggests otherwise.This continuing research has followed 6000 people since 1956, testing them every seven years. It has found that on average, participants performed better on cognitive(认知的) tests in their 40s and 50s than they had done in their 20s. Specifically, older people did better on tests of vocabulary, verbal memory (how many words you can remember) and problem solving.Where they performed less well was number ability and perceptual(感知的) speed-how fast you can push a button when ordered. However, with more plex tasks such as problem-solving and language, we are at our best at middle age and beyond. In short, researchers are now ing up with scientific proof that we do get wiser with age.Neuroscientists are also finding that we are happier with aging. A recent US study found older people were much better at controlling and balancing their emotions. It is thought that when were younger we need to focus more on the negative aspects of life in order to learn about the possible dangers in the world, but as we get older weve learned our lessons and are sub-consciously aware that we have less time left in life: therefore, it bees more important for us to be happy.63.Barbara Strauch probably agrees that _.A. the young are better at handling important thingsB. peoples brains work best between their 40s an 60sC. aging leads to the decline of the function of the brainD. wrinkles and grey hair are the only symbols of aging64.The continuing research has found older people perform better on _.A. vocabulary testsB. number abilityC. perceptual speed D. body balance65.People are happier with age because _.A. they learn to value the time leftB. they know how to share feelingsC. they cannot focus on negative aspectsD. they do not realize the possible dangers66.What is the main idea of the passage?A. People get wiser with age.B. People
