This 36 us feel so good that I felt I had to share our experience.We were traveling to Mexico for 37 week with our family. 38 I traveled a lot for work, we had enough frequent flier miles and could upgrade our tickets to 39 class seats. We were sitting in the very first two seats in the first row of first class, 40 the plane to depart . I overheard one of the flight attendants telling the others that there was a couple sitting in the 41 of the plane who had just got married the previous day and were heading off on their 42 . They had booked their flight eight months in advance 43 , due to some schedule changes, they had not been able to get 44 together. No one else on the plane was willing to move and the bride was in tears.I turned to my husband and told him what I 45 . We immediately 46 and I called the flight attendant over to tell her that we would be happy to 47 our seats for this couple. The flight attendant seemed shocked and 48 and said, “Really? Are you sure?” We said, “Absolutely!”So we moved to the back of the 49 . I sat in a middle seat part way back and my 50 sat in the window seat in the last row of the plane.The flight attendants were extremely thankful and 51 good care of us even though we were no longer sitting in first class. We both made friends with the people 52 around us and had a great flight. I had to go back to the front of the plane to retrieve a forgotten item at one point during the 53 .

Wele to the world of homonyms. Take, for example, the word fail it can be a kind of festival, and adjective to describe the color of your hair or how you should play a game. Dont take it literallySo how do you know which meaning someone is referring to? You dont, except by the context. Obviously, if someone asks you to give them a hand, they dont want you to remove what is at the end of your arm.Whats in a name?Sometimes even the context doesnt help much the result can be amusing. These sentences play with the double meaning of a noun:I used to be a banker, but I lost interest. Have you heard about the cross-eyed teacher who couldnt control his pupils?A small boy swallowed some coins and had to go to hospital. When his grandmother phoned to ask how he was, the nurse said: No change yet.More ambiguityAnd these examples play with the different meanings of a verb:I wondered why the ball was getting bigger. Then it hit me.No one knew she had a dental implant until it came out in a conversation.A boiled egg in the morning is hard to beat.Double troubleAnd sometimes a word can be a noun and a verb, but have different meanings. Can you work this one out?Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.If you like these homonyms, you will be pleased to know that English has plenty more!Explanations of jokes in the textI used to be banker, but I lost interest. (I became bored with the job / I lost money)Have you heard about the cross-eyed teacher who couldnt control his pupils? (students / parts of his eyes) A small boy swallowed some coins and had to go to hospital. When his grandmother phoned to ask how he was, the nurse said: No change yet. (no difference in the situation / no money)I wondered why the ball was getting bigger. Then it hit me. (the ball hit me / I suddenly realized)No one knew she had a dental implant until it came out in a conversation. (became known / fell out)A boiled egg in the morning is hard to beat. (cant be better / difficult to mix with a fork)Time flies like an arrow. (time goes quickly) Fruit flies like a banana. (insects enjoy eating fuit.)56. Which of the following statements about homonyms is NOT true?A. They share the same spellings regardless of meanings.B. We cant know their meanings without context.C. We may still feel confused even with context.D. Their ambiguity brings great trouble to our life. 57. The “beat” in the sentence “A boiled egg in the morning is hard to beat, making for a satisfying breakfast.” has a similar meaning to _.A. The rain was beating down on the tin roof.B. Taking the bus sure beats walking.C. The doctor could feel no pulse beating.D. Youve been working too hard, you look dead beat.B We might think we know which colours do what. The idea that red wakes us up or blue calms us down is deeply rooted in Western culture. But do they really change our behaviour in the ways that we assume?When it es to scientific research, the results are mixed and at times contested. Some studies have found that people do better on cognitive tasks when faced with red rather than blue or green; others show the opposite. The idea is that if you repeatedly have a particular experience surrounded by a certain colour, then you eventually begin to associate that colour with the way you were feeling or behaving. A school career spent reading your teachers red writing circling your mistakes forever makes you link red with danger. Blue meanwhile is more likely to be associated with calmer situations like marvelling at a big blue expanse of sky.Of course there will always be exceptions - the ment from the teacher saying “well done” is also written in red. It is true that people do make different associations with different colours, but whether this translates into behaving in a certain way or succeeding at a particular task is a different question.In xx researchers tried to clarify the situation. They sat their participants at puter screens coloured blue, red or “neutral” and tested them on various tasks. With a red screen people did better on tasks requiring attention to detail, but when the screen was blue they did better on creative tasks. In practice this might be tricky. In a classroom you might want to think creatively some of the time and pay attention to detail at others.However, when another team tried to repeat the study with a larger group of people in xx, the effect of colour disappeared. The initial study consisted of just 69 people. In this new, bigger study, of 263 volunteers, background colour made no difference.So colours might well have an effect, but so far those effects have been difficult to demonstrate consistently and sometimes dont seem to exist at all. 58. Whats the major function of the first paragraph?A. To present a widely held view B. To raise a question of behavior changeC. To introduce the theme of the passageD. To summarize the whole passage59. The author mentions the exception in Paragraph 3 in order to show _.A. there are exceptions to every ruleB. people tend to associate colors with behaviors C. colors dont necessarily mean particular behaviors D. colors do matter to those who desire success60. It can be concluded from the results of the studies in xx and xx that _.A. the research findings are practical in indoor decorationB. solid evidence is inadequate to prove how colors affect usC. a larger study may help confirm colors effects on our behaviors D. walls should be painted different colors depending on different tasks C My father was, by nature, a cheerful, kindly man. Until he was thirty-four years old he worked as a farm-hand for Thomas Butterworth near the town of Bidwell, Ohio. On Saturday evenings he drove his horse into town to spend a few hours in social intercourse with other farm-hands. He was quite happy in his position in life. It was in his thirty-fifth year that father married my mother, a school teacher. Something happened to the two people. The American passion for getting up in the world took possession of them. Mother induced father to give up his place as a farm-hand, sell his horse and start an independent enterprise of his own. They rented ten acres of poor stony land and launched into chicken raising. One inexperienced in such matters can have no idea of the many and tragic things that can happen to a chicken. It is born out of an egg, lives for a few weeks as a tiny fluffy thing, then bees naked, gets diseases, and dies. A few hens, and now and then a rooster, intended to serve God s mysterious ends, struggle through to maturity. The hens lay eggs out of which e other chickens and the awful cycle is thus made plete. It is all unbelievably plex. Most philosophers must have been raised on chicken farms. One hopes for so much from a chicken and is so awfully disappointed. Small chickens, look so bright and in fact so awfully stupid. They are so much like people they mix one up in ones judgments of life. If disease does not kill them they wait until your expectations are thoroughly aroused and then walk under the wheels of a carriage. In later life I have seen how a literature has been built up on the subject of fortunes to be made out of the raising of chickens. It is intended to be read by the gods who have just eaten of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. It is a hopeful literature and declares that much may be done by simple ambitious people who own a few hens. Do not be misguided by it. It was not written for you. Go hunt for gold on the frozen hills of Alaska, put your faith in the honesty of a politician, believe if you will that good will defeat evil, but do not read and believe the literature that is written concerning the hen. For ten years my father and mother struggled to make our chicken farm pay and then they gave up that struggle and began another. They moved into the town of Bidwell, Ohio and began the restaurant business, with the tiny hope of looking for a new place from which to start on our upward journey through life.61. Which of the following is the right order of what happened?a. Father got married to Mother, a school teacher.b. Father quitted working at Butterworths.c. My parents launched a business in Bidwell. d. Father socialized in town on Saturday eveningse. My parents started their job of chicken farming.A. d-a-b-e-cB. d-a-c-b-eC. d-b-a-e-cD. d-b-a-c-e62. By saying “Most philosophers must have been raised on chicken farms”, the author means that chicken farming _.A. is so plex that only philosophers can prehend itB. gives you a philosophical insight into lifeC. exposes you to a plete circle of lifeD. allows you the time to judge the life 63. In the authors opinion, the literature about chicken raising _.A. is full of hope and positive energyB. proves the victory of good over evilC. persuades you to believe in politiciansD. tends to be blindly optimistic about its rewards64. Whats the authors attitude towards parents dream of rise to success?A. approvingB. optimistic C. skepticalD. indifferentD A four-year-old girl sees three biscuits divided between a stuffed crocodile and a teddy bear. The crocodile gets two; the bear one. “Is that fair?” asks the experimenter. The girl judges that it is not. “How about now?” asks the experimenter, breaking the bears single biscuit in half. The girl cheers up: “Oh yes, now its fair. They both have two.” Strangely, children feel very strongly about fairness, even when they hardly understand it.Adults care about fairness too - but how much? One way to find out is by using the ultimatum (最后通牒) game, created by economist Werner Guth. Jack is given a pile of money and proposes how it should be divided with Jill. Jill can accept Jacks “ultimatum”, otherwise the deal is off, and neither gets anything.Suppose Jack and Jill dont care about fairness, just about accumulating cash. Then Jack can offer Jill as little as he likes and Jill will still accept. After all, a little money is more than no money. But imagine, instead, that Jack and Jill both care only about fairness and that the fairest oute is equality. Then Jack would offer Jill half the money; and Jill wouldnt accept otherwise.What happens when we ask people to play this game for real? It turns out that people value fairness a lot. Anyone offered less than 20-30% of the money is likely to reject it. Receiving an unfair offers makes us feel sick. Happily, most offers are pretty equitable; indeed, by far the most mon is a 50-50 split.But children, and adults, also care about a very different sort of (un)fairness, namely cheating. Think how many games of snakes and ladders have ended in arguments when one child “accidentally” miscounts her moves and another child objects. But this sense of fairness isnt about equality of oute: games inevitably have winners and l
