17、 had been on call at Atlanta Medical Center for more than two days, with only a few hours sleep. And now tiredness was clouding her eyes as she drove to a meeting in Kentucky, nearly seven hours away. She tried turning on herCB radio, which enthusiasts used to warn one another about road conditions,
18、 but the airwaves (广播频道) were silent. Soon Apples car started to weave.A 41-year-old trucker named Woody Key found a car ahead, drifting (漂移) off the road. Key shouted into his CB microphone (麦克风), “Four-wheeler, are you all right?” Apple woke up. She talked on her CB radio. “Im tired, and Im lucky
19、Im still alive driving this tired. Thanks!”“Call me Woodpecker, my CB nickname (昵称),” the trucker said. “Im going to Kentucky. And you?”“Kentucky.”“Ill travel behind and help keep you awake. Whats your CB nickname?”“Dr. Froot Loops,” she told him.As they drove, they shared stories, and the time pass
20、ed quickly. They parted near the Kentucky state line. She thanked him for keeping her awake and safe on the long, dark road.Years later, Apple found several doctors checking a person brought in from an accident. His head was badly hurt. She put both hands on his head, hoping to calm him. “Its not yo

I know your voice .”“My nickname is Dr. Froot Loops.”“Oh Its me Woodpecker!”It was her truck driver! She said, “Its not your time, Woodpecker!” Then Key wa
22、s rushed into the operating room. The first days out of the operating room were very painful for Key. Often Apple would get home and find her phone ringing. Nurses, unable to calm Key, asked her to return. She always did.About two months after his accident, Key was ready to leave the hospital. As he

26、e beginning of the war in 2011, many people are without enough heating or shelter during the cold winter months. A group of MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) students has set out to change that.The team of six, led by MIT Sloan School of Management undergraduate Vick Liu, created TravlerPa
27、ck, a light sleeping bag that can stand up to temperatures as cold as -10, with the goal of sending the bags to Syrian refugees (难民).During a freshman exercise last year, Liu was among a group of students discussing startup ideas when he realized he was interested in creating something that would he
28、lp people. He wrote the idea for TravlerPack on a piece of paper and put it in his pocket so he wouldnt forget it.With fuel (燃料) and shelter hard to come by, refugees have few ways to keep warm during the Syrian winters. But a sleeping bag doesnt require fuel. “Its a simple solution to a big problem
29、,” said Liu.Liu and his team spoke directly with refugees to find out what additions to the bag they might need. They found that refugees had no way to store valuables, especially at night, so each TravlerPack contains one outside storage pocket and five inside storage pockets. When not being used,
30、TravlerPack can be pressed down into a small bag, which can be worn as a backpack, allowing refugees to keep both hands free.After reaching out to around 80 producers, the team officially partnered with one in April to make the sleeping bags.The team reached out to many non-profits (非盈利性机构) and, luc

Now the team is raising
32、 more money to send 1,000 bags overseas.“Weve been really lucky the whole way through,” Liu said. “This has been a journey of luck and a lot of planning.”28. Why did Vick Liu create TravlerPack?A.

Which of the following can be used to describe Vick Liu?A. Kind and strict. B. Int
35、elligent and sensitive. C. Creative and thoughtful.D. Humorous and talkative. DThe way that others judge you is similar to placing marbles (玻璃弹珠) on a scale (天平盘) as soon as they get any information. We form impressions of people the same way we form an impression of anything: As soon as our scale o
36、f marbles starts tipping one way,we start collecting evidence to back that up by picking up the marble thats easiest to pick up.Why? Our brains are lazy and our time is limited. As we get more choices, we become more careless about everything. “Basically, we get around choice overload by ignoring mo
37、st of the choices we have,” says the decision-making researcher Peter Todd.Think about an employment manager working through a stack of rsums (一摞简历), one of which advertises an applicants (申请人的) fluency in French. Does it matter, even if the position is for a web designer? It just might.“Suppose the
38、 manager has a great interest in learning French to talk to her elderly aunt in Montreal. No doubt the applicant would feel excited about being offered the job,” writes Warren Thorngate in Judging Merit. “But how would you feel about such a one-step judgment, especially if youd spent three days prep
39、aring your rsum for the job opening but did not trouble to note in your rsum that you, too, spoke French?”I called Thorngate to ask how such things manage to continue. “Some very good applicants may be missed, buttheydont care,” the judgment and decision-making researcher replied.“Its one of those p
40、roblems where everybody thinks that theyre a good judge of character,” says the researcher Kristine Kuhn. “But obviously people just are not nearly as good as they think they are. Even if they met someone and judged them as great employees and employed them, and then they turned out to be bad, that
41、doesnt shake peoples confidence. They can always explain away that it really didnt have anything to do with them not being a good judge of character.”32. What does the author say about first impressions in Paragraph 1? A. Theyre lasting.B. Theyre important. C. Theyre hard to make.D. Theyre often unr
