27、ant 10 cents, what change would you receiver?” The boy replied, “I never had 10 cents, and if I had I wouldnt spend it on sweets, and anyhow sweets are what you mother makes.” The intelligence tester tried again, presenting the problem in the following way: “If you had taken 10 cows to pasture for y

30、 understand the questions. 63. What does the underlined word “pasture” probably mean?A. To feed cows on grassland.B. To raise animals in a city.C. To drive cows to the railway station.D. To sell cows in a market.BLeaving a tip in a restaurant has become a custom in most countries. The word “tip” cam
31、e from the Latin word “Grais”, meaning free. Tips are defined as small gifts of money for service in addition to the payment due.Believe it or not, the practice of tipping has a little interesting history. The custom can be traced back to the Roman era. The Romans were the first civilization to use
32、coins. It is possible that the word “tip” came from the word “stipend”. “Stips” in Latin means gift. A more common belief is tips were first given in the 18th century England. A popular coffee house equipped each table with a coin box. The label of each box read, “To insure promptness.” Dropping a c
33、oin into the box would result in quick service. Also, the first letter of each word is T. I. P.-tip.In America and Europe, it is customary to tip anywhere from 10% to 20%. Taxi drivers, waiters in restaurants, waitresses in lounges, hotel boys, doormen, and disco coat check girls, all expect a littl
34、e something. People working at these jobs usually receive a low basic salary. Tips are quite necessary to supplement their income. Today most people decide the size of tip according to the quality of the service. If the service and food are not satisfactory, a small tip or possibly no tip will be le
35、ft. For excellent food and service most people are quite happy to leave a tip.The world is full of big spenders and people who act like big spenders. Surprisingly, rich people are not “big tippers” unless entertaining guests. It is no use showing off if nobody is there to watch, right? Many throw mo
36、ney around like water to impress a group of friends out for an evening “on the town”. People who usually cannot afford it are the biggest tippers in front of their friends. It is all part of the show to prove a certain level of social success. Nobody wants to look cheap, stingy, or poor in front of
37、their friends. Over-tipping also gives some satisfaction just to see the waiters reaction.For whatever reason, tipping will continue to be practiced in most countries. Tipping does have its place in our modern society. It will also remain a somewhat personal expression of gratitude. 64. What is the
38、meaning of the word “Gratis” according to the passage?A. free of obligationB. free of chargeC. plenty in timeD. free from tax 65. When were tips first given in England?A. In the 17th century.B. In the 18th century.C. In the 19th century.D. In the 20th century. 66. Which of the following statements i
39、s true?A. Most people think that tips originated in England.B. Most people think that tips originated in Rome.C. Today most people decide the “size of tips according to their mood.”D. According to the author, the practice of tipping does not have an interesting history. 67. How do you understand the
40、 sentence “The world is full of big spenders and people who act like big spenders.” in the 4th paragraph?A. All people in the world have a lot of money.B. No one in the world has a lot of money.C. Many people spend a large sum of money every day.D. The number of people who either have a lot of money
41、 or who pretend to be rich is great. 68. Why are people who cannot afford tipping the biggest tippers in front of their friends?A. Because they have a lot of money.B. Because they sympathize with taxi drivers, waiters in restaurants, waitresses in lounges and disco coat check girls, etc.C. Because o
42、f their vanity（虚荣）.D. None of the above.CWhy does cream go bad faster than butter? Some researchers think they have the answer, and it comes down to the structure of the food, not its chemical composition-a finding that could help break away from some chemicals. Cream and butter contain pretty much
43、the same things, so why cream should go bad much faster has been a problem. Both are small globules（小球）of one liquid which spreads throughout another. The difference lies in whats in the globules and whats in the surrounding liquid, says Brocklehurst, who led the research. In cream, fatty globules d
44、rift about in a sea of water. In butter, globules of a watery roads are locked away in a sea of fat. The bacteria （细菌）which make the food go bad prefer to live in the watery areas of the mixture. “This means that in cream, the bacteria are free to grow throughout the mixture,” he says, “when in butt
45、er, the bacteria are locked away in locked places buried deep in the sea of fat. Trapped in this way, those colonies cannot spread and rapidly run out. They also slowly poison themselves with their waste products.” “In butter, you get a self-limiting system which stops the bacteria growing.” says Br
46、ocklehurst. The researchers are already working with food companies eager to see if their products can be made to stand bacterial attack through changes of the foods structure.Brockelehurst believes it will be possible to make something used in salad cream, for instance, more like that in butter. Th
47、e key will be to do this while keeping the salad cream liquid and not turning it into a solid state. 69. The significance（意义）of Brocklehursts rescarch is that _.A. it discovered small globules in both cream and butterB. it suggested a way to keep some foods fresh without using some chemicalsC. it sh
48、owed the secret of how bacteria increase in cream and butterD. it found that cream and butter share the same chemical composition 70. According to Brocklehurst, we can keep cream fresh by _.A. changing its structureB. killing the bacteriaC. reducing its waterD. removing its fat 71. The underlined wo
49、rd “colonies” refers to _.A. tiny globulesB. watery regionsC. the surrounding liquidD. bacteria society 72. Commercial use of the research finding will be possible if salad cream can be made to stand bacterial attack _.A. by changing its chemical compositionB. by turning it into a solid lumpC. while
50、 its liquid form remainsD. while keeping its structure unchangedDWork, for most American and Chinese women aged 55 and under, involves responsibility for a household a child or children, and a job outside the home as well. It all adds up to a busy lift. How is it going for them for us?Demographers h
51、ave observed that life forms a different sort of pyramid for women in China than in the United States. In China, nearly all young mothers are employed outside the home, with their numbers tapering off as women approach old age. The reasons are clean the second income of the woman is an absolute nece
52、ssity for a young family with a child or two. Later on, when the children are grown, the older couple can more easily live on the husbands earnings plus the wifes pension, and fewer middle-aged women continue in employment.The pyramid for American women is the opposite, with fewer young women employ
53、ed, and the number increasing at older ages. any young mothers have found it more efficient to stay home and care for the children themselves, then find employment later when the children are older and more independent. But rising costs of living are requiring more young American women to help suppo
54、rt and have jobs. They enjoy the adult relationships with others at work and feel stimulated by the demands and challenges of being employed. Staying at home with only a child or two, as even American family size is now, can be monotonous and lonely. Furthermore, a womans paycheck can provide her wi
55、th stronger voting power in family matters.But the American working mother often feels troubled by the complexity of her lift. Childcare is unreliable and expensive. Childcare workers have low status, are not well educated and are poorly paid-they are often women unable to get better jobs. Thus the
56、American working mother always has the worry that her child is not being as well cared for as she hopes, and the cost of babysitters or private-enterprise daycare centers can eat up half or more of her salary. Other worries distract her from good performance at her job: What if the babysitter gets s
57、ick? What will her employer think if she has to stay home with a sick child? What if the car, necessary to get the child to the daycare center and herself to and from her job, breaks down? Few people live close enough to their work of childcare center to accomplish this on foot or by bicycle, as in
58、China. 73. What does the phrase “taper off” in the second paragraph mean?A. gradually decreaseB. remain the sameC. slightly changeD. increase slowly 74. Which of the four answers is not the reason for an American young woman to work outside?A. The cost of living is increasing.B. More earning contrib
59、utes to more power in a family.C. Staying at home with child is boring.D. Baby care is unreliable and expensive. 75. What can we learn from the comparisons intentioned above?A. Americans would be shocked to have to work at jobs that kept husband and wife separated for months.B. Chinese men seem to b
60、e performing more in family work than the American man would.C. American women have more varied and complex concern in terms of childcare.D. American women are more concerned with their post. 76. What may come right after the last paragraph of this passage?A. In china, grandparents take care of chil
61、dren.B. On the job, Chinese women seem more confident.C. Certainly it is true that in both countries males are given preference in education, job selection and promotion.D. Our nations could not run without them.ENext time a customer comes to your office, offer him a cup of coffee. And when youre do
62、ing your holiday shopping online, make sure youre holding a large glass of iced tea. The physical sensation（感觉）of warmth encourages emotional warmth, while a cold drink in hand prevents you from making unwise decisions those are the practical lesson being drawn from recent research by psychologist J
63、ohn A. Bargh.Psychologists have known that one persons perception（感知）of anothers “warmth” is a powerful determiner in social relationships. Judging someone 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 roote
64、d in very early childhood experiences, Bargh argues, when babies conceptual sense of the world around them is shaped by physical sensations, particularly warmth and coldness. Classic studies by Harry Harlow, published in 1958, showed mondeys preferred to stay close to a cloth “mother” rather than on
65、e 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 worm physical contact from caregivers to help young children grow into healthy adults with normal social skills.Feelings of “warmth” and “coldness” in socia
66、l 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 cultures, and studies have found those perceptions influence judgment in dozens of countries.To test the relationship between physical and psychologi
67、cal warmth, Bargh conducted an experiment which involved 41 college students. A research assistant who was unaware of the studys hypotheses（假设）, handed 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 hande
68、d 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 warm 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
69、.” Says Bargh. 77. According to Paragraph 1, a persons emotion may be affected by _.A. the visitors to his officeB. the psychology lessons he hasC. his physical feeling of coldnessD. the things he has bought online 78. The author mentions Harlows experiment to show that _.A. adults should develop so
70、cial skills B. babies need warm physical contactC. caregivers should be healthy adultsD. monkeys have social relationships 79. 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 co
