36、k, you got hit by a deer! And I was like, What? Theres no way,” he said Monday. He never even saw the deer, he said. Fink was OK at first but as the hours went on his head started hurting. Fink then went to Cook Childrens hospital. They took me straight back to surgery and they told my mom and dad,
37、Hey, he may not make it,” he said. X-rays found a skull fracture (颅骨骨折) and bleeding in his brain.

The words run together into a mass, all sense and meaning lost. All the same, people do care how you are. After they greet you, its likely
44、you will greet them back, with an equally meaningless phrase like, “Cant complain, cant complain.” You could probably complain, at length, or share a brilliant thought you were just beginning when a greeting interrupted you. You dont though, you say, “Great, you?”You are not giving each other inform
45、ation about your health and well-being. All the same, you are sharing information. Youre acknowledging each others positions as acknowledged friends, or at least as accepted acquaintances. And you are reestablishing the ties that may have lapsed since yesterday.Its what anthropologist Bronislaw Mali
46、noski called a phatic communication. Its message is not in the words you use, but in the fact that you speak ritually accepted words.

47、ng hello. A phatic signal says hi.Theres embarrassment of being near people without acknowledging them. That uncomfortable feeling is one reason why lonely passengers in the subway may behave as if they cannot see anyone around them or may escape their uncomfortable situation with a book. Some peopl
48、e read all the way home, and never turn a page. Your friend isnt asking how you are, and you arent telling him. However, he is recognizing your existence, and when you answer, you are recognizing his. In addition, the set speech you have shared opens the door to closer communications if both agree.
49、Someday, you may come to real close friendship, and really tell one another how you are.Meanwhile, people who greet one another this way do care. They care enough to recognize someones essential humanity. They send a signal across the space between, to share, very briefly and lightly, in awareness o
50、f one another.Your greetings prove that neither of you has become a social outcast. How are you? You are still a member of society in good status. You are still the one who knows the rituals necessary to get to work each day.46. When people greet, they _.A. want to show their different educational b

53、t” in the last paragraph probably means _.A. a person who is well-educatedB. a person who succeeds suddenlyC. a person who is a burden to societyD. a person who is not accepted by others50. What does the text mainly tell us?A. Greetings should be better expressed.B. Greetings convey different meanin
54、gs to different people.C. Greetings help prove an individuals social independence.D. Greetings help an individual be connected with the society.DArt is everywhere. Any public space has been carefully designed by an artistic mind to be both functional and beautiful. Why, then, is art still so widely
55、considered to be the easy subject at school, insignificant to wider society, a waste of time and effort?Art can connect culture with commercial products in a way that not many other things can; art generates money and holds significant emotional and cultural value within communities. When people att

57、ts are a perfect crossover（交迭）between culture and commerce.Furthermore, the arts can bring communities together, reducing loneliness and making people feel safer. Social bonds are created among individuals when they share their arts experiences through reflection and discussion, and their expression
58、 of common values through artworks in honour of events significant to a nations experience.The arts clearly have a pretty positive impact on physical and psychological health. It is found that people who frequent cultural places or participate in artistic events are more likely to gain good health c
59、ompared to those who do not; more engagement with the arts is linked to a higher level of peoples wellbeing. The Royal Society of Public Health discovered that music and art, when used in hospitals, help to improve the conditions of patients by reducing stress, anxiety and blood pressure.Children wh
60、o are involved with the arts make greater achievements in their education: those engaged with drama have greater literary ability while others taking part in musical practice exhibit greater skills in math and languages. Kids with preference for the arts have a greater chance of finding employment i
61、n the future.
