When the studio didnt want me for the film it wanted somebody as well-kn
17、own as Paulhe stood up for me. I dont know how many people would have done that; they would have listened to their agents or the studio powers.The friendship that grew out of the experience of making that film and The Sting four years later had its root in the fact that although there was an age dif
18、ference, we both came from a tradition of theater and live TV. We were respectful of craft and focused on digging into the characters we were going to play. Both of us had the qualities and virtues that are typical of American actors: humorous, aggressive, and making fun of each otherbut always with
19、 an underlying affection. Those were also at the core (核心) of our relationship off the screen.We shared the belief that if youre fortunate enough to have success, you should put something backhe with his Newmans Own food and his Hole in the Wall camps for kids who are seriously ill, and me with Sund
20、ance and the institute and the festival, Paul and I didnt see each other all that regularly, but sharing that brought us together. We supported each other financially and by showing up at events.I last saw him a few months ago. Hed been in and out of the hospital. He and I both knew what the deal wa

To share his acting experience.CNowadays there is less and less contact between the old and the young. There are many reasons
24、 for this, but the result is the same: increasing numbers of children without grandparents and old people who have no contact with children. And more old people who are lonely and feel useless, along with more and more families with young children who desperately need more support. Its a major probl
25、em in many societies. Thats why intergenerational programmes, designed to bring the old and the young together, are growing in popularity all over the world, supported by UNESCO and other local and international organizations. There are examples of successful schemes (方案) all over the world. Using y
26、oung people to teach IT skills to older people is one obvious example. Using old people as volunteer assistants in schools is another, perhaps reading with children who need extra attention.One successful scheme in France is combining a residential home for the elderly with a nursery school in the s
27、ame building. The children and the residents eat lunch together and share activities such as music, painting, gardening and caring for the pets which the residents are encouraged to keep. In the afternoons, the residents enjoy reading or telling stories to the children and, if a child is feeling sad
28、 or tired, there is always a kind lap to sit on and a cuddle (依偎). There are trips out and birthday parties too.The advantages are enormous for everyone concerned. The children are happy because they get a lot more individual attention and respond well because someone has time, for them. They also l
29、earn that old people are not different or frightening in any way. And of course, they see illness and death and learn to accept them. The residents are happy because they feel useful and needed. They are more active and more interested in life when the children are around and they take more interest
30、 in their appearance too. And the staff are happy because they see an improvement in the physical and psychological health of the residents and have an army of assistants to help with the children.28.

33、y live a healthier life.C. It creates a family atmosphere.D. They are closer to their relatives.DThis month, Germanys transport minister, Alexander Dobrindt, proposed the first set of rules for autonomous vehicles (自主驾驶车辆). They would define the drivers role in such cars and govern how such cars per
34、form in crashes where lives might be lost.The proposal attempts to deal with what some call the “death valley” of autonomous vehicles: the grey area between semi-autonomous and fully driverless cars that could delay the driverless future.Dobrindt wants three things: that a car always chooses propert
35、y (财产) damage over personal injury; that it never distinguishes between humans based on age or race; and that if a human removes his or her hands from the driving wheelto check email, saythe cars maker is responsible if there is a crash.“The change to the road traffic law will permit fully automatic
36、 driving,” says Dobrindt. It will put fully driverless cars on an equal legal footing to human drivers, he says.Who is responsible for the operation of such vehicles is not clear among car makers, consumers and lawyers. “The liability (法律责任) issue is the biggest one of them all,” says Natasha Merat
37、at the University of Leeds, UK.An assumption behind UK insurance for driverless cars, introduced earlier this year, insists that a human “be watchful and monitoring the road” at every moment.But that is not what many people have in mind when thinking of driverless cars. “When you say driverless cars
38、, people expect driverless cars,” Merat says. “You knowno driver.”Because of the confusion, Merat thinks some car makers will wait until vehicles can be fully automated without operation.Driverless cars may end up being a form of public transport rather than vehicles you own, says Ryan Calo at Stanf
39、ord University, California. That is happening in the UK and Singapore, where government-provided driverless vehicles are being launched.That would go down poorly in the US, however. “The idea that the government would take over driverless cars and treat them as a public good would get absolutely now
40、here here,” says Calo.32. The proposal put forward by Dobrindt aims to _.A. stop people from breaking traffic rulesB. help promote fully automatic drivingC. protect drivers of all ages and racesD. prevent serious property damage33. What do consumers think of the operation of driverless cars?A. It sh
41、ould get the attention of insurance companies.B. It should be the main concern of law makers.C. It should not cause deadly traffic accidents.D. It should involve no human responsibility.34. Driverless vehicles in public transport see no bright future in _.A. SingaporeB. the UKC. the USD. Germany35.

43、to express their feelings and describe their world. 36 Lets see if we can figure out where they originated.Black sheep of the familyThe phrase refers to a member of a family or a group who is in disgrace (失宠). It probably comes from the days when, in a group of sheep, the black ones were worth less
44、than the white ones at market because their wool could not be dyed (染色) into different colors. 37 Green with envyWhen your friend shows up with the hottest new video game in town, you might feel this way. 38 It was the Greeks who connected it with sickness. They thought that when a person was ill or

No, this doesnt refer to a dye job on his hair. 39 Back when all color dyes came from natural sources, such as berries and leaves, blue was the most difficult colo

This reliable color became known as “true blue”.Royal purplePurple is a fairly popular color. But throughout
47、history, it was reserved for royalty and important members of the church. Purple was once the most expensive dye in the world. 40 The resulting purple-colored cloth was costly, and only the richest people could afford to buy it.A.

You can hum a song, daydream or think about nothing, leaving the real world behind you. But did you know that showering can also benefit your mind?A piece of research by Scott Barry Kaufman,
67、 psychologist from Yale University in the US interviewed over 3000 people around the world. It turned out that nearly twothirds of the interviewees said they had experienced new ideas in the shower and were more likely to have them in the shower than at work.So why does a simple shower have such mag
68、ic power？Science can explain it.Showering can help to raise our level of dopamine (多巴胺), a hormone (荷尔蒙) closely related to our creativity. “People vary in terms of their level of creativity according to the activity of dopamine,” explained Alice Flaherty, a famous American neuroscientist (神经系统科学家).
69、 “Taking a warm shower can make us feel relaxed and therefore make the dopamine level rise and bring the Aha! moment to us.”Besides the chemical changes, showering may give you a break from what you feel you have been stuck with. Especially when you have thought hard all day about a problem, jumping
70、 into the shower can keep you from the outside world so that you can focus on your inner feelings and memories. In this way, according to American psychologist Shelley H. Carson, author of Your Creative Brain, “a showering hour may turn into an incubation (孵化) period for your ideas”Compared with sit
71、ting in front of a computer, taking a shower is something we do less frequently in our daily lives. When showering, we get a fresh experience with the change of location, temperature and humidity (湿度). “New and unexpected experiences can lead to positive changes in thinking,” explained Kaufman. “Get
72、ting off the couch and jumping in the shower may create a distance and force you to think from a new point of view.”Showering allows us to enjoy the creative juices of our minds, which makes the bathroom an alternative where you get your inspiration. So next time you consider ways to free your mind,
