19、ered the jawbone of a Mastodon (齿乳象). Brothers Shawn and Caid Sellers and cousin Michael Mahalitc found the prehistoric bone in a piece of earth that was recently plowed (犁、耕). “I thought it was a log,” Caid said. “I tried to pick it up and it was really heavy and I saw teeth on it.” The bone weighe
20、d about 50 pounds. They eventually got the bone to their home and fitted it in their tub (浴盆), but it took their collective strength, might and a golf cart, to carry the large Mastodon bone. “They didnt expect to find that,” Michaels mom said. “Now that they have, I believe that they will be more aw
21、are of their surroundings and what theyre digging up when they are digging and playing.”“Weve gotten a lot of petrified (石化的) wood and Civil War relics from the area and thats what I thought it was,” the brothers mother said. “This is our first set of teeth weve found. So we thought it was their ima
22、gination. We were quite surprised to see that it was not their imagination.”They were exploring near the brothers home. Lo and behold (真想不到), they saw what they thought resembled a fossil. It was the curator of paleontology (古生物负责人) of the Mississippi Museum of Natural Science, George Phillips, who
23、first identified the bone as a “very mature individual.”The Mastodon was a mammal who lived during the prehistoric times. They had long tusks and trunks, like elephants. They were clearly different from their modern-day counterparts, as well as woolly mammoths (猛犸). 24. How did they find the jawbone

First Identifying Bone as a “Very Mature Individual”D. Unexpectedly Discovering Mastodon JawboneCWith the explosion of consumer choices in recent history, t
27、he latest must-haves would surely need to be upgraded more often than every 10 years. In 2002 a computer and basic mobile phone would have been enough for most people, but now? The public need a trendy notebook computer and a smart phone with WiFi connection to feel they are up-to-date. So when will
28、 we have enough things? When will we finally be happy? Well, it looks like the things we buy today will barely keep us satisfied for a few months.In the eyes of some psychologists, far from making us happy, greater consumer choice creates many serious psychological problems. A fundamental principle
29、of the society is that more freedom is better and more choice in the marketplace means more freedom. Therefore more choice leads to more happiness. This is not the case, however.Imagine you go to a caf offering chocolate and vanilla ice cream. You choose the chocolate and eat it happily. But what if
30、 the caf serves 50 kinds of ice cream? You choose chocolate and then start to worry, “maybe blueberry would have been better, perhaps the half-fat ice cream would have been healthier. Stupid me, all these choices and I didnt make the best one! ”In Chinas major cities we have now passed the point whe
31、re more consumer choice is making us happier. We are annoyed by all the options we have, disappointed because our expectations are so high and angered at ourselves when we don t make a perfect choice every time.A newspaper reporter tells a story about traveling on a plane with high-speed Internet ac
32、cess. He thought this was amazingthe newest piece of technology he had heard of. Then the service went down. The man next to him was angry and swore. The reporter thought, “How quickly the world owes him something he knew existed only 10 seconds ago!”28. What is the text mainly talking about?A. Hi-t
33、ech and consumer needs.B. Computers and smart phones.C. Wireless products and WiFi connection.D. Diverse choices and consumer satisfaction.29. What may some psychologists think of the consumer demand in the caf?A. The consumer has mental problems.B. More choice means more freedom.C. Variety leads to
34、 unhappiness.D. The shop provides too many choices.30. Why was the man next to the reporter quite annoyed?A. The net connection was interrupted.B. Someone owed him money.C. The air hostess offered poor service.D. The pleasure lasted only 10 seconds.31. What does the underlined word “swore” in the la
35、st paragraph probably mean?A. Fell asleep. B. Said rude words.C. Made promises.D. Became amazed.DWhat will higher education look like in 2050? That was the question addressed Tuesday night by Michael Crow, president of Arizona State University.“Were at the end of the fourth wave of change in higher
36、education,” Crow began, arguing that research universities followed the initial establishment of higher education, public colleges, and land-grant schools in the timeline of America.In less than a half-century, he said, global market competition will be at its fastest rates of change ever, with seve
37、ral multi-trillion-dollar economies worldwide. According to a recent projection, the nations population could reach 435 million, with a large percentage of those residents economically disadvantaged. In addition, climate change will be “meaningfully uncontrollable” in many parts of the world.The eve
38、ryday trends seen today, such as declining performance of students at all levels, particularly in math and science, and declining wages and employment among the less educated, will only continue, Crow maintained, and are, to say the least, not contributing to fulfilling the dream of climbing the soc
39、ial ladder mobility, quality of life, sustainable environment, and longer life spans that most Americans share.“How is it that we can have these great research universities and have negative-trending outcomes?” Crow said in a talk “I hold the universities accountable. We are part of the problem.”Amo
40、ng the “things that we do that make the things that we teach less learnable,” Crow said, are the strict separation of disciplines, academic rigidity, and conservatism, the desire of universities to imitate schools at the top of the social ranks, and the lack of the computer system ability that would
41、 allow a large number of students to be educated for a small amount of money.Since 2002, when Crow started being in charge at Arizona State which he calls the “new American university” he has led more than three dozen initiatives that aim to make the school “inclusive, scalable, fast, adaptive, chal
42、lenge-focused, and willing to take risks.”Among those initiatives were a restructuring of the engineering and life sciences schools to create more linkages between disciplines; the launch of the School of Earth and Space Exploration and the School of Sustainability; the start of a Teachers College t
43、o address K-12 performance and increase the status of the Education Department at the university; and broadened access, increasing the freshman class size by 42 percent and the enrollment of students living below the poverty line by 500 percent.Universities must start, Crow noted, “by becoming self-
44、reflective architects, figuring out what we have and what we actually need instead of what legend tells us we have to be.” Research universities today have “run their course,” he added. “Now is the time for variety.”During a discussion afterward, Crow clarified and expanded on some of his points. He
45、 discussed, for example, the schools distance-learning program. “Nearly 40 percent of undergraduates are taking at least one course online,” he said, which helps the school to keep costs down while advancing interactive learning technologies.He said that Arizona State is working to increase the tran
46、sfer and completion rates of community-college students, of whom only about 15 percent, historically, complete their later degrees. “Weve built a system that will allow them to track into universities,” particularly where “culturally complex barriers” beyond finances limit even the most gifted stude

But we tend to fight them for all sorts of reasons. “People worry about showing their emotions, afraid that once they lose control theyll never get it back.” 37 After we cry, the feelings that caused the tears often disappear. Sometimes people become mu
