25、 the conductor. “But dont take any notice of what I say. Just put me off the train anyway.”Then Mark Twain went to sleep. Later, when he woke up it was night time and the train had reached Paris already. He realized at once that the conductor had forgotten to wake him up at Dijon. He was so angry th
26、at he ran to the conductor and began to shout at him.“I have never been so angry in my life,” Mark Twain said.The conductor looked at him calmly(平静地).“You are not half so angry as the American whom I put off the train at Dijon,” he said.56.

30、Dad was weak. But his smile was as sure as ever. My husband and I had to work, so our relatives would help him get home from the hospital and look after him. But I wanted Dad to know that we cared about him, too, even when we werent with him. Then I remembered a family tradition when our children we
31、re small. When leaving their grandparents home, each child would write a love note for their grandparents to find after we were gone. They hid notes in the food box, or even in the fridge. For days their grandparents would smile as they discovered these notes of the childrens love. So as I cleaned D
32、ads room downstairs before he got home, I began writing notes. Some showed my love. Most notes were in his room downstairs where he would be able to find, but one note was hidden upstairs under his pillow. “Dad, if you have found this note, you must be feeling better. We are so glad!”My notes were a
33、 reminder (提醒的事物) of our love for Dad. Just like his medicines made him better physically (身体上), these would improve his mental (精神的) health.

36、Dad healthier mentally CDo you know the answer to this question: why many birds like to sing?Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all,you probably sing or whistle(吹口哨)when you are happy. However,some scientists believe that birds sing out of their territory.Do you know what a “territor
37、y” is? A territory is an area that an animal,usually the male,claims(声称)as its own. Only he and his family are welcome there. No other families of the same species are welcome. Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your terr
38、itory and threaten you,you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.If so,you have actually scared the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. But he expects no outsiders almost any time,especially at nesting(筑巢)season. So he is screaming all the
39、 time,whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we call a birds song,and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.Birds sing loudest in the spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs.You can see that birds have a langua
40、ge of their own. Most of it has to do with attracting mates and setting up territories.64. Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season?A. Because they want to invite more friends.B. Because they want to find outsiders around.C. Because their singing helps frighten outsiders away.D. Because their
41、singing helps get rid of their fears.65. The word “territory” in para.2 means _.A. 食品 B. 试验 C. 领域 D. 种类66. Where will you probably find the passage?A. A science report. B. A newspaper.C. A textbook.D. A guidebook.DOn July 20, 2004, a group of scientists from the UK were working at the computers. The
42、y wanted to find some information they needed. Suddenly they saw a lot of very bright points crossing the computers screens. At the same time the computers were working much slower. To find out what was happening they stopped their work to check some parts of the computers. To their horror (恐怖), the
43、y found out that most of their stored information was got rid of by computer viruses (病毒) ! Clearly all these computers had been infected by computer viruses.It is said that the computer viruses were made by a group of young men fond of playing tricks. They all had excellent education. They created
44、the viruses just to show their intelligence (才能) . These kinds of computer viruses are named Jerusalem Viruses. These viruses can stay in computers for a long time. When the time comes they will attack the computers by lowering the functions, damaging their normal programs or even getting rid of all
45、 the information. We now come to know that Jerusalem Viruses often attack computers on Friday and that they are spreading (传播) to a lot of computers. Among the countries that were attacked by computer viruses last year are Britain, Australia, Switzerland and the U.S. But till now, how to get rid of

74、time. Dali was a member of the new style of painting, in which painters tried to express their dreams through painting. Surrealists would sometimes use a method of automatic painting, in which they would let their hand paint without thinking. They believed that, by not controlling their hand and bru
75、sh, they could express more clearly the confused thoughts of their dreams. Another method was to put ordinary everyday objects together in strange ways. In one of his famous paintings. Dali painted soft watches lying and hanging on a strange landscape. Dali founded the Salvador Dali Museum in the city of Fingueres, Spain, in 1974. He put models of eggs, snails and giant cabbages all over the museum. Many people believe it is an excellent example of Salvador Dalis strange and delightful artistic expression.
