One way to do that is to build those surfaces specially, on the roofs of buildings. But why go to all that troubl
35、e when cities are rub of black surfaces already, in the form of asphalt (柏油) roads?Ten years ago, this thought came into the mind of Arian de Bondt, a Dutch engineer. He finally persuaded his boss to follow it up. The result is that their building is now heated in winter and cooled in summer by a sy
36、stem that relies on the surface of the road outside.The heat-collector is a system of connected water pipes. Most of them ran from one side of the street to the other, just under the asphalt road. Some, however, dive deep into the ground.When the street surface gets hot in summer, water pumped throu
37、gh the pipes picks up this heat and takes it underground through one of the diving pipes. At a depth of 100 metres lies a natural aquifer (蓄水层) into which several heat exchangers (交换器) have been built. The hot water from the street runs through these exchangers, warming the ground-water, before retu
38、rning to the surface through another pipe. The aquifer is thus used as a heat store.In winter, the working system is changed slightly. Water is pumped through the heat exchangers to pick up the heat stored during summer. This water goes into the building and is used to warm the place up. After perfo
39、rming that task, it is pumped under the asphalt and its remaining heat keeps the road free of snow and ice.59. Which of the following is true according to the first two paragraphs?A. Arian de Bondt got his idea from his boss. B. Large, flat, black surfaces need to be built in cities.C. The Dutch eng

I
42、had in my hand a sheet of paper with handwritten instructions on it for some sort of editorial task. It occurred at first that I did not recognize the handwriting,and then I realized whose it must be. I finally became aware of the fact that I had been working with this colleague for at least a year,
43、maybe two,and yet I did not recognize her handwriting at that point. It was a very important event in the computerization of lifea sign that the informal friendly communication of people working together in an office had changed from notes in pen to instant messages and emails. There was a time when
44、 our workdays were filled with little letters,and we recognized one anothers handwriting the way we knew voices or faces. As a child visiting my fathers office,I was pleased to recognize,in little notes on the desks of his staff,the same handwriting I would see at home in the notes he would leave on
45、 the fridgeexcept that those notes were signed “dad” instead of “RFW”. All this has been on my mind because of the talk about The Rise and Fall of Handwriting,a book by Florey. Sire shows in her book a deep concern about the fall of handwriting and the failure of schools to teach children to write w
46、ell,but many others argue that people in a digital age cant be expected to learn to hold a pen. I dont buy it. I dont want to see anyone cut off from the expressive,personal associations that a pen still promotes better than a digital keyboard does. For many a biographer,part of really getting to kn
47、ow their subjects is learning to read their handwriting. What some people advocate is teaching one of the many attractive handwritings based on the handwriting of 16th-century Italy. That may sound impossibly grandas if they want kids to learn to draw by copying classical paintings. However,they hav

His colleagues handwriting was so beautiful. C. His colleagues handwriting was so terrible. D. He still had a 1ot of work to do. 63. Peo

He was wearing three shirts, a jacket, two pairs of socks, a pair of shorts, and two pairs of jeans. He was ca
52、rrying one small backpack, which was very full, but he didnt have any other luggage. Brian needed to meet a man named Tony before he checked in for his flight. He found Tony near the Air France counter. Tony gave him a round-trip ticket and a small package. Ks5u “Give this package to Jean-Paul at th
53、e airport in Paris. He will have a sign with your name on it. I think you can find him easily,” Tony said “You dont have any luggage, right?” “Only this backpack,” Brian answered. “You said I could bring one carry-on bag.” “Thats right, one carry-on bag is fine. Have a good trip.” “Thanks.”Is Brian
54、a criminal(犯罪)? Not at all. He is an air courier. And he paid only $110 for the round-trip ticket to Paris. Air couriers get cheap airline tickets because they take important packages and papers to foreign countries. Businesses sometimes need to get packages and papers to people in foreign countries
55、 by the next day. Often, the only way they can do this is to use an air-courier company. It is not cheap for a business to send a package with an air courier, but it is quick. Every year about 80, 000 people worldwide travel as air couriers. The number of tickets for courier travel is growing by abo
56、ut 10 percent a year. However, air-courier travel isnt for everyone, But if you have very little money, can be flexible(灵活的)about your travel plans, and dont mind wearing the same clothes for a week, it can be a great way to take a vacation!67. Why was Brian wearing so many clothes for his travel? A
57、. Because they were the uniform for air couriersB. Because that made him easier to be recognized. C. Because his backpack had no room for his clothesD. because he did not have any luggage with him. 68. An air courier is a person who A. manages a business company in foreign countries B. organizes int

Businesses choose the air-courier service because A. it costs less B. it is flexible C. it saves time D. it grows fast70. One of the disadvantages of traveling as an
59、 air courier is that heA. cannot decide when and where to travelB. cannot take any luggage with him C. has to wear two pairs of jeansD. saves little money from the travel71.

And when youre doing your holiday shopping online, make sure youre holding a large glass of iced tea. The physical sensation(感觉) of warmth encourages emotional warmth,
61、while a cold drink in hand prevents you from making unwise decisionsthose are the practical lesson being drawn from recent research by psychologist John A. Bargh.Psychologists have known that one persons perception(感知) of anothers “warmth” is a powerful determiner in social relationships. Judging so
62、meone to be either “warm” or “cold” is a primary consideration, even trumping evidence that a “cold” person may be more capable. Much of this is rooted in very early childhood experiences, Bargh argues, when babies conceptual sense of the world around them is shaped by physical sensations, particula
63、rly warmth and coldness. Classic studies by Harry Harlow, published in 1958, showed monkeys preferred to stay close to a cloth “mother” rather than one made of wire, even when the wire “mother” carried a food bottle. Harlows work and later studies have led psychologists to stress the need for warm p
64、hysical contact from caregivers to help young children grow into healthy adults with normal social skills.Feelings of “warmth” and “coldness” in social judgments appear to be universal. Although no worldwide study has been done, Bargh says that describing people as “warm” or “cold” is common to many
65、 cultures, and studies have found those perceptions influence judgment in dozens of countries.To test the relationship between physical and psychological warmth, Bargh conducted an experiment which involved 41 college students. A research assistant who was unaware of the studys hypotheses(假设), hande
66、d the students either a hot cup of coffee, or a cold drink, to hold while the researcher filled out a short information form: The drink was then handed back. After that, the students were asked to rate the personality of “Person A” based on a particular description. Those who had briefly held the wa
67、rm drink regarded Person A as warmer than those who had held the iced drink.“We are grounded in our physical experiences even when we think abstractly,” says Bargh.72. According to Paragraph 1, a persons emotion may be affected by _.A. the visitors to his officeB. the psychology lessons he hasC. his
68、 physical feeling of coldnessD. the things he has bought online73. In Barghs experiment, the students were asked to _.A. evaluate someones personalityB. write down their hypothesesC. fill out a personal information formD. hold coffee and cold drink alternatively74. We can infer from the passage that
69、 _.A. abstract thinking does not come from physical experiencesB. feelings of warmth and coldness are studied worldwideC. physical temperature affects how we see othersD. capable persons are often cold to others75. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Drinking for Better Social Relationsh

We usually use “无所不为” to express the idea that people dare to do anything bad, and “无所事事” to describe the situation in which people have got nothing meaningful to do. Have I made myself clear?
