His next 44 was
26、 a candy sale at this school, Palmetto Elementary, and it has turned into an annual 45 . And then people in Miami read about his efforts and were inspired to 46 to donate more money and toys, and things just snowballed.Within a year Kyles idea turned into an official fund-raising organization called
27、 Kids That Care Cancer Fund. Today it is one of the 47 organizations in the country run by kids and 48 kids. Its hard to estimate just 49 the group has collected, says Laurie, but it is more than $100,000. As the Mayor of Miami wrote to Kyle, “ Your efforts have made a remarkable 50 in the lives of

33、t the particular job you want. Therefore, it is important to remerber that your purpose during the interview may differ from that of the potential employer.

36、out it, be honest. Show the interviewer that your are interested in the company by asking questions. Ask about responsibilities, working conditions, promotions opportunities and benefits of the job you are interviewing for.If at some point you decide the interview is not going well, do not let your
37、discouragement show. You have nothing to lose by continuing a show of confidence, and you may have much to gain.

38、re interested in a job where you can prove yourself that a specific salary. This politely passes the question back to the interviewer.

48、 the Spanish moved into what later was to become the southwestern United States, they came across the ancestors of the modern-day Pueblo, Hopi, and Zuni peoples. These ancestors, known variously as the basket makers, the Ancient ones, had lived in the area for at least 2000 years. They were an advan
49、ced agricultura people who used irrigation to help grow their drops.The Anasazi lived in houses constructed of earth and wood. Anasazi houses were originally built underground and were entered from the roof. But around the year 700 A. D., the Anasazi began to build their homes above ground and join
50、them together into multistoried complexes, which the Spanish called villages. Separate underground rooms in these villagesknown as kivas or holy placeswere set aside for religious ceremonies. Each kiva had a fireplace and a hole that was believed to lead to the underworld. The largest villages had f
51、ive stories and more than 800 rooms.The Anasazi family was ruled by women. The sacred objects of the family were under the control of the oldest female, but the actual ceremonies were conducted by her brother or son. Women owned the rooms in the village and the crops, once they were harvested. While
52、 still growing, crops belonged to the men who, in contrast to most other Native American groups, planted them. The women made baskets and pottery; the men wove cloth and made jewelry.Each village had two chiefs. The village chief dealt with land arguments and religious affairs. The war chief led the
53、 men in fighting during occasional conflicts that broke out with neithboring villages and directed the men in commnity building projects.

56、.DThe brain of an insect isnt very big. But insects are somehow still able to make lots of important decisions. Bees, ants and roaches(蟑螂) build hives(巢穴)with thousands of workers doing specialized work. The jobs are done without a head or even a plan. How do insects manage this?To solve the mystery
57、, scientists in Belgium spent months building robotic roaches and then putting them among real roaches. The final goal of the research is to find out how the simple behavior of individuals gives rise to a collective decision. The roach is a good starting point for trying to answer the big question b
58、ecause its social system is simple enough for scientists to study.The first step was to build robots that real roaches would accept as their own. Although the robotic roaches dont look much like the real thing, they have similarities with them in three key ways: they naturally head toward dark areas
59、, they are influenced by the behavior of other roaches, and even more importantly, they smell like roaches.The next step was getting the robotic and real roaches to work together on common tasks. In experiments, the robots would collectively head towards a dark place, copying the behavior of natural
60、 roaches. That got the researchers wondering: if you program the robotic roaches to go woward the lighted place, would the real roaches follow, going against their natural instincts.(本能) ?They will it turned out. Many of the real roaches followed the robots to a lighter shelter. But influence turned
61、 out to be a two- way street. On occasion, the real roaches were able to override the programming of the robot roaches and get them to turn into dark hiding places. Being social creatures, both the robotic and natural roaches were paying attention to and following the example set by others.In theory
62、, it would be possible to create a robot that could influence collective decision-making in humans. To do this, researchers would have to invent a robot that people would accept. Fortunately, the technology isnt there yet.67. Why do scientists choose the roaches to study? A. They are social creature
63、s B.Their social system is simple. C.They are able to build their hives quite well. D. It is easy to create robotic ones.68. The robotic roaches are accepted by real ones because of all of the following EXCEPT that _ .A. they smell like real ones B. they look exactly like real onesC. what they do ar
64、e somewhat influenced by other roachesD. they naturally head toward dark areas69. Whats the authors attitude to creating a robot that would influence collective decision- making in humans? A. Uninterested B. Positive C. Negative D. Doubtful70. Which of the following might be the best title of the pa
65、ssage ? A.Robotic Roaches B.Scientists Research C.Amazing Insects D. Insects Social SystemIV.任务型阅读A new set of brain images shows why : Reading the Roman alphabets and Chinese characters uses different parts of the brain.The results also suggest that Chinese schoolchildren have reading problems in a
66、 different part of the brain used in reading alphabet-based languages. This shows that the learning disorder dyslexia ( inability to read properly) is not the same in very culture and does not have a universal biological cause.Scientists described the results as “ very important and revolutionary”.
67、While dyslexia has certain common roots, they said, they now have some proof that this kind of functional problem works differently according to the different demands that Western and Eastern languages place on the brain.Dyslexia is a common developmental disorder in which people of normal intellige
68、nce have difficulty learning to read, spell and master other language skills.The results suggest that treating dyslexia around the world probably will require different treatments.“Reading is complex,” said Guinevere Eden, Georgetown University professor. “ This shows we need to be more open-minded
69、about diverse treatment approaches.”Its origins are complex. There appears to be a genetic aspect to the illness. It also may result from brain injury before birth that changes visual and hearing pathways in the brain.Earlier brain scans show that English-reading dyslexics dont function properly in
70、a left part of the brain associated with the awareness of 44 sounds from the English alphabet. However, according to the new study, reading Chinese uses some different parts of the brain located in the left-front of the brain. It is associated with symbol interpretation. Unlike alphabet letters, Chi
