25、tepped off the train and onto a nearly empty platform, a teenage boy approached and pulled out a knife.“He wanted my money, so I just gave him my wallet and told him, Here you go ” Diaz says. As the teen began to walk away, Diaz told him, “Hey, wait a minute. You forgot something. If youre going to
26、be robbing people for the rest of the night, you might as well take my coat to keep you warm.”The robber looked at him puzzled, saying, “Why are you doing this?”Diaz replied, “If youre willing to risk your freedom for a few dollars, then you must really need the money. I mean, all I wanted to do was
27、 get dinner and if you really want to join me.” Diaz says he and the teen went into a diner and sat in a booth.“The manager comes by, the dishwashers come by, the waiters come by to say hi,” Diaz says. The kid said, “You know everybody here. Do you own this place?”“No, I just eat here a lot,” Dias s
28、aid. “But youre even nice to the dishwasher,” he said.Diaz replied, “Well, havent you been taught you should be nice to everybody?”“Yea, but I didnt think people actually behaved that way,” the teen said.When the bill arrived, Diaz said, “Youre going to have to pay for this bill because you have my
29、money and I cant pay for this. So if you give me my wallet back, Ill gladly treat you.”The teen returned it immediately. “I gave him $20. I figure maybe itll help him.” Diaz says he asked for something in return- the teens knife- “and he gave it to me.”Afterwards, when Diaz told his mother what happ
30、ened, she said, “Youre the type of kid that if someone asked you for the time, you gave them your watch.”“I figure, you know, if you treat people right, you can only hope that they treat you right.

33、o harm others on purpose B Encouraging pupils to keep noise to a minimum should be a valuable component of all childrens education, according to new research. Dr. Helen Lees, from Stirling Universitys school of education, says that “enforced（强制的）silence” is seen as a punishment and often acts to sup
34、press childrens natural ability. But she says that teaching children about the benefits of “enforced silence”,- deliberate stillness that gives them the opportunity to focus and reflect in a stress-free environment- can have a significant effect on pupils concentration and behavior. It is the latest
35、 in a string of researches to establish a link between the classroom environment and pupils academic ability. A study almost a decade ago in London found that childrens exam results were cut by as much as a third if they were taught in noisy classrooms. Teaching unions have also called for a limit o
36、f 26 to be put on classroom temperatures because teachers and pupils struggle to work in hot conditions, and some educationalists claim that too much clutter（杂乱的东西）on classroom walls can prevent children from concentrating. Dr. Lees said, “When we take some research on school settings and put it all
37、 together, what we see is that education without silence does not make much sense. In areas of better learning outcomes, better self- confidence and well-being measures, enforced silence in a persons life and an individuals education is shown throughout the relevant research to be a benefit.” Dozens
38、 of schools across Britain have already introduced periods of “reflective silence” into the timetable. Kevin Hogston, head of Sheringdale Primary, south London, has just introduced a minutes silence at the start of twice-weekly meetings in which children are taught breathing techniques and encourage
39、d to reflect. The school plans to introduce it into classrooms every day.60. According to Dr. Helen Lees, “enforced silence” A. is an effective way of punishment B. does not make much sense in class C. can improve pupils confidence D. makes pupils more creative61. The underlined word, “suppress”, in
40、 the second paragraph probably means “_”. A. prevent B. improve C. apply D. reveal62. What can be inferred from the research on school settings? A. Students are more active if taught in noisy classrooms. B. Silence makes a great difference to pupils. C. Clutter on the walls can help students concent
41、rate. D. Most schools are not satisfactory in terms of classroom temperatures.63. What would be the best title for the text?A. Arranging classroom settings benefits studies B. Achieving silence is beneficial for peopleC. Using enforced silence is effective punishment D. Keeping quiet in class improv
42、es academic performance CThe Gullah people in the southern US have honored their culture for more than 100 years. Living mainly on the Sea Islands and coastal areas of South Carolina, Georgia and Floride, the Gullah people, an African-American group, have a rich culture including their own language.
43、 It is a Creole language created by slaves who came to the US from the West Africa in the 1800s. It combines West African languages with English.For many years efforts have been made to save the Gullah language. One project began in 1979. Its goal was to translate the New Testament part of the Bible
44、 into Gullah. Experts say that it was a difficult process because Gullah is not a written language. It is a spoken language only.A team of Gullah speakers began working on the translation to make the Bible easier to understand for those who spoke Gullah as their main language. The Gullah version is
45、called De Nyew Testament. It is written in English on one side of the page, and next to it, there is a Gullah translation. De Nyew Testament was published by the American Bible Society. The project also received help from the Summer Institute of Linguistics, Wycliffe Bible Translators, the United Bi
46、ble Societies and the Penn Centre Experts believe that the translated Bible is a major step towards saving the Gullah language and traditions. “This is more than a Bible translation,” says Robert Hodgson, at the American Bible Society. “De Nyew Testament raises the Gullah language and culture to a n
47、ew level.” Ardell Greene is a member of the translation team. She calls the book “a treasure”. She says that the Gullah version of the Bible will be read in churches and will help young people keep the Gullah language alive.64. According to the passage, De Nyew Testament can be best seen as _. A. a
48、good version of the Bible B. something difficult to understand C. a spoken form of the Gullah language D. the effort to save the Gullah language65. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? A. Gullah communities can be found in the southern US. B. Gullah is influenced b
49、y both English and West African languages. C. De Nyew Testament is a complete Bible translation. D. Ardell Greene thinks highly of De Nyew Testament.66. What does this passage mainly focus on?A. Efforts to save the Gullah language. B. Different versions of the Bible.C. The history of the Gullah peop
50、le.D. The culture of the Gullah people.DIf you havent heard or seen anything about Road Rage in the last few months, youve probably been avoiding the media. There have been countless stories about this new and scary phenomenon, considered a type of aggressive driving. You have most likely encountere
51、d aggressive driving or Road Rage recently if you drive at all.While drunk driving remains a critical problem, the facts about aggressive driving are surely as disturbing. For instance, according to the National Highway Transportation Safety Association, 41,907 people died on the highway last year.
52、Of those deaths, the agency estimates that about two-thirds were caused at least in part by aggressive driving behavior.Why is this phenomenon occurring more than ever now, and why is it something that seemed almost nonexistent a few short years ago? Experts have several theories, and all are probab
53、ly partially correct. One suggestion is sheer overcrowding. In the last decade, the number of cars on the roads has increased by more than 11 percent, and the number of miles driven has increased by 35 percent. However, the number of new road miles has only increased by 1 percent. That means more ca
54、rs in the same amount of space; and the problem is magnified in urban areas. Also, people have less time and more things to do. With people working and trying to fit extra chores and activities into the day, stress levels have never been higher. Stress creates anxiety, which leads to short tempers.
55、These factors, when combined in certain situations, can spell Road Rage. You may think you are the last person who would drive aggressively, but you might be surprised. For instance, have you ever yelled out loud at a slower driver, sounded the horn long and hard an another car, or sped up to keep a
56、nother driver from passing? If you recognize yourself in any of these situations, watch out!Whether you are getting angry at other drivers, or another driver is visibly upset with you, there are things you can do to avoid any major conflict. If you are easily influenced by Road Rage, the key is to d
57、ischarge your emotion in a healthy way. If you are the target of another drivers rage, do everything possible to get away from the other driver safely, including avoiding eye contact and getting out of their way.67.ThefirstsentenceinPara.1impliesthat_.
