25、ldren. As a child I loved him; as a school girl and young adult I feared him and felt bitter about him.

They will help shoppers find paper cups or toilet soap, and keep a record of the bill.The touch-screen devices（触摸屏装置）are on show at the Food Marketing Institutes exhibition here this week. “These devices are able to create value and get you around the store

33、her device tells you how many fat grams or calories are in your cart, but they will flash you with items on sale. The idea is to make it easier for people to buy, not to have second thoughts that maybe you should put something back on the shelf. “The whole model is driven by advertisers need to get
34、in front of shoppers,” said Alexander. “Theyre not watching 30-second TV ads anymore.” People can use a home computer to make their shopping lists.

39、g Buddy. CNew computers make shopping carts smarter. DTouch-screen devices make shopping enjoyable.CCompassion （同情） is a desire within us to help others.

40、 from a building for the elderly. These old people are our main customers, and its not hard to lose patience over their slowness. But last Sunday, one aged gentleman appeared to teach me a valuable lesson. This untidy man walked up to my register（收款机）with a box of biscuits. He said he was out of cas
41、h（现金）, had just moved into his room, and had nothing in his cupboards. He asked if we could let him have the food on trust. He promised to repay me the next day.I couldnt help staring at him. I wondered what kind of person he had been ten or twenty years before, and what he would be like if luck had
42、 gone his way. I had a hurt in my heart for this kind of human soul, all alone in the world. I told him that I was sorry, but store rules didnt allow me to do so. I felt stupid and unkind saying this, but I valued my job.Just then, another man, standing behind the first, spoke up. If anything, he lo
43、oked more pitiable. “Charge it to me,” was all he said. What I had been feeling was pity. Pity is soft and safe and easy. Compassion, on the other hand, is caring in action. I thanked the second man but told him that was not allowed either. Then I reached into my pocket and paid for the biscuits mys

Since research has shown that the bigger the brain, the cleverer the animal, men must be more intelligen
54、t（聪明的） than women. Right? Wrong. Men and women always score similarly on intelligence tests, despite the difference in brain size. Why? After years of study, researchers have concluded that its whats inside that matters, not just the size of the brain. The brain consists of “grey matter” and “white
55、matter”. While men have more of the latter, the amount of “thinking” brain is almost exactly the same in both sexes.It has been suggested that smaller brain appears to work faster, perhaps because the two sides of the brain are better connected in women. This means that little girls tend to learn to
56、 speak earlier, and that women can understand sorts of information from different sources at the same time. When it comes to talking to the boss on the phone, cooking dinner and keeping an eye on the baby all at the same time, its women who come out on top every time. There are other important diffe
57、rences between two sexes. As white matter is the key to spatial（空间的） tasks, men know better where things are in relation to other things. “A great footballer always knows where he is in relation to the other players, and he knows where to go,” says one researcher. That may explain one of lifes great
58、 mysteries: why men refuse to ask for directions and women often need to! The differences begin when fetuses（胎儿） are about nine weeks old, which can be seen in the action of children as young as one. A boy would try to climb a barrier （障碍物） before him or push it down while a girl would attract help
59、from others. These brain differences also explain the fact that more men take up jobs that require good spatial skills, while more women speech skills. It may all go back to our ancestors（祖先） ,among whom women needed speech skills to take care of their babies and men needed spatial skills to hunt, a
60、ccording to one research. If all this disappoints you, it shouldnt. “The brain changes throughout our lives according to what we do with it.” says a biologist.77Which of the following is true according to the first paragraph? AWomens brain is 10% less than mens. BGrey matter plays the same role as w
61、hite matter. CGrey matter controls thinking in the brain. DBoth sexes have the same amount of white matter.78What can we infer from the second and third paragraphs? AWomen prefer doing many things at a time. BMen do better dealing with directions. CWomen do not need to tell directions. DMen have wea
62、ker spatial abilities.79Which of the following do you agree with according to the fourth paragraph? AYoung boys may be stronger than young girls. BMore women take up jobs requiring speech skills. CWomen may have stronger feelings than men. DOur ancestors needed more spatial skills.80What can we infe
63、r from this passage?AThe writer shows that he knows a lot about brains.BThe writer finds some examples to prove the researchers words.CThe writer informs readers that men should find jobs requiring speech skills.DThe writer describes things as they are.第卷（非选择题 共50分）第四部分 写作（共四节，满分50分）第一节 单词拼写（共10小题；每
