My mother read and cried. “Buddy, you didnt really write this beautiful poem!”Shyly, but 36 , I said yes. She poured out her 37 . “It was nothing short of talent!”“What time will Father be home?” I asked. I could hardly wait to 38 my work to him. I spent quite some time 39 for his arrival. I wrote the poem out in my finest flourish, drew a fancy border around it, and 40 I placed it right on my fathers plate on the dining table. My father had begun his motion-picture career as a writer. I was sure he would be able to 41 my poem.At almost 7 oclock my father burst in. He seemed 42 . He circled the dining-room table, plaining about his employees.Suddenly he paused and glared at his plate. “What is this?” He was reaching for my poem.“Ben, Buddy has written his first poem!” my mother began. “And its beautiful, absolutely amaz ”“If you dont mind, Id like to decide for myself.” Father said.I 43 my head as he read that poem.

A modern three-point seat belt, also called a safety belt, is a harness to prevent the driver or a passenger from flying forward and hitting hard against the interior of a vehicle during a collision. A modern seat belt will help to position you properly to gain maximum benefit from your cars airbags that will inflate during a collision. Using a seat belt also prevents you from being ejected from a car into the path of oning traffic. Research shows that when you wear a modern seat belt, you reduce the risk of death or serious injury by 70% or more during an auto accident.Seat belts have existed in different forms since the early days of automobiles, and they have changed from a single lap belt to the three-point seat belt we use today. In 1911 the first airplane seat belt was installed. Then, in the 1920s they were used in racecars. By the 1930s, a group of American physicians created lap belts for their own vehicles and urged vehicle manufacturers to provide seat belts on all vehicles.Dr. C. Hunter Shelden made a major contribution to our safety with his article in the November 5, 1955 Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA). He strongly encouraged the manufacture and use of door locks, airbags, and retractable(伸缩式的) seat belts, like the ones we use today. The modern three-point seat belt, including a lap belt and a shoulder belt, was introduced as standard equipment on Volvo cars in 1959.In 1970, the state of Victoria in Australia made the wearing of a seat belt pulsory for every car driver and front-seat passenger. Today many countries have also mandated(授权) the use of five-point safety harnesses for carefully designed child safety seats that can protect a child during a serious car accident.An airbag is a Supplemental Restraint System, or SRS, and consists of a rapidly inflatable restraint cushion that works together with a seat belt to protect you during a collision. Modern cars often contain several airbags in various locations. Since airbags can only inflate once and will quickly deflate after the initial impact, they will not provide any protection for you during a secondary collision.The inflation of airbag can protect or hurt you. The risk zone for a drivers airbag is the first 8 centimeters from its pre-inflation location. While driving, you should remain about 25 centimeters from the airbag in the center of the wheel. As a driver, wear your seat belt and make sure children correctly use their seat belts. Failure to wear a seat belt properly means the airbags in your car might injure or even kill you during an accident.An essential part of your safe driving skills is the habit of making sure that you and each of your passengers are always properly positioned and wearing a seat belt. There are many wonderful benefits of being able to drive a car, but there are also severe consequences during an accident for anyone who chooses not to wear a seat belt.56. This article mostly deals with _.A. how to drive safely on the road B. different forms of seat beltsC. the history of seat belt development D. the importance of seat belt use57. The author treats the subject of this article with _.A. good humorB. admirationC. seriousnessD. disapprovalBForget the pyramids, Tahrir Square and the Nile. Egypt is ready to ditch Cairo and build a shiny new capital if the government has its way. Fed up with pollution, traffic jams, a packed population with soaring rents, Egypt is teaming up with a developer in the United Arab Emirates to build a city in what could be one of the worlds most ambitious infrastructure programs.The yet-to-be-named city will spread out over 150 square miles, or roughly the size of Denver, and could eventually be home to 7 million people, the developers and government announced Friday.The current capital of Cairo, while full of history and vibrant charm, is home to more than 18 million people, and living in and getting around the city can be maddening and frustrating. The government says the idea is to reduce congestion in Cairo, which is projected to double in population in the ing decades.An exact location was not announced, but the city is expected to be built east of Cairo. It will be closer to the Red Sea - between two major highways - the Suez and the Ain Sokhna roads.The ambitions are big. In addition to the new embassies and government buildings, it plans to have an international airport bigger than Heathrow, solar energy farms, 40,000 hotel rooms, nearly 2,000 schools and 18 hospitals - all linked together by over 6,000 miles of new roads.But if the dream is big, the bill will be bigger. The total cost is estimated at U.S. $45 billion, Minister of Housing Mostafa Madbouly announced at an economic development conference in Sharm el-Sheikh. The revealing of the new capital was paired with a glamorous website showing a luxurious and technological urban view of glass towers and pools.The plan is backed by a group that describes itself as “a private real estate investment fund by global investors focused on investment and development partnerships” led by Emirati developer Mohamed Alabbar.Alabbar made his name as the founder of Dubais Emaar Properties, primarily known for developing the worlds tallest building, the Burj Khalifa.Egypt is not the first country to plan on moving its capital from established big cities to rural greener pastures. Myanmar(缅甸) has only recently pleted its move from Yangon to the new city of Naypyidaw. Nigeria moved to Abuja in the 1990s, and Brazil carved its capital Brasilia out of the wilderness over 50 years ago.And then there was another crazy idea of building a capital city on a square of swampland that seemed mainly to be a boondoggle for wealthy land speculators(商人) at the time. That city? _58. Egypt is ready to join hands with some experienced developers to build a new capital mainly because of the following EXCEPT _ in the old capital. A. pollution and population B. its location and higher rents C. its long history and charmD. traffic jams and crowdedness59. The underlined sentence in the passage means that it is _. A. a new city with expensive infrastructure programs B. a new city with beautiful glass towers and pools C. an enterprising dream with abundant funds D. a noble dream with rich cooperative teams60. Which city was the oute of a crazy idea at that time? A. Abuja. B. Brasilia. C. Naypyidaw. D. Washington, D.C.C“Does my smile look big in this?” Future fitting-room mirrors in clothing stores could subtly adjust your reflection to make you look and hence feel happier, encouraging you to like what you see.Thats the idea behind the Emotion Evoking System developed by Shigeo Yoshida and colleagues at the University of Tokyo in Japan. The system can manipulate, or in other word, control your emotions and personal preferences by presenting you with an image of your own smiling or frowning face.The principle that physiological changes can drive emotional ones that laughter es before happiness, rather than the other way around is a well-established idea.The researchers wanted to see if this idea could be used to build a puter system that manipulates how you feel. The system works by presenting the user with a web-camera image of his or her face as if they were looking in a mirror. The image is then subtly altered with software, turning the corners of the mouth up or down and changing the area around the eyes, so that the person appears to smile or frown (皱眉).Without telling them the aim of the study, the team recruited (招募) 21 volunteers and asked them to sit in front of the screen while performing an unrelated task. When the task was plete the participants rated how they felt. When the faces on screen appeared to smile, people reported that they felt happier. On the other hand, when the image was given a sad expression, they reported feeling less happy.Yoshida and his colleagues tested whether manipulating the volunteers emotional state would influence their preferences. Each person was given a scarf to wear and again presented with the altered webcam image. The volunteers that saw themselves smiling while wearing the scarf were more likely to report that they liked it, and those that saw themselves not smiling were less likely.The system could be used to manipulate consumers impressions of products, say the researchers. For example, mirrors in clothing-store fitting rooms could be replaced with screens showing altered reflections. They also suggest people may be more likely to find clothes attractive if they see themselves looking happy while trying them on.“Its certainly an interesting area,” says Chris Creed at the University of Birmingham, UK. But he notes that using such technology in a shop would be harder than in the lab, because people will use a wide range of expressions. “Attempting to make slight differences to these and ensuring that the reflected image looks believable would be much more challenging,” he says.Of course, there are also important moral questions surrounding such subtly manipulative technology. “You could argue that if it makes people happy what harm is it doing?” says Creed. “But I can imagine that many people may feel manipulated, unfortable and cheated if they found out.”61. Whats the main purpose of the Emotion Evoking System?A. To see whether ones feeling can be unconsciously affected.B. To see whether ones facial expressions can be altered.C. To see whether laughter es before happiness.D. To replace the mirrors in future clothing-store fitting rooms.62. What can we learn about the web-camera image in the study?A. It recorded the volunteers performance in the task.B. It gave the volunteers a false image. C. It attempted to make the volunteers feel happier.D. It beautified the volunteers appearance in the mirror.63. What does Creed mention as a limitation of the technology?A. It only changes the areas around the mouth and the eyes.B. It only works in clothing stores.C. It only makes subtle changes to peoples expressions.D. It only deals with a limited number of facial expressions.64. What does Creeds ment on the moral issues with this technology imply?A. Nothing is more important than happiness.B. Technology is unable to manipulate people.C. People should make their decisions independently.D. People should neglect the harm of the technology. DThe phone ID flashed, “Emergency Vet”. “Oh no” I whispered.
