I called him several times, but each time his secretary told me that he was in a meeting and that he woul
25、d call me later. So I waited, but there was still no call. Three hours passing by. I became more and more impatient. I was certain that my agent didnt care about my work, and he didnt care about me. I was overcome with that thought. I started to shout at the phone, “Let me wait, will you? Who do you
26、 think you are?”At that time I didnt realize my wife was looking on. Without showing her surprise, she rushed in, seized the phone, tore off the wires, and shouted at the phone, “Yeah! Who do you think you are? Bad telephone! Bad telephone!” And she swept it into the wastebasket. I stood watching he
27、r, speechless. What on earth?She stepped to the doorway and shouted at the rest of the house, “Now hear this! All objects in this room if you do anything to upset my husband, out you go!”Then she turned to me, kissed me and said calmly, “Honey, you just have to learn how to take control.” With that,
28、 she left the room. After watching a crazy woman rushing in and out, shouting at everything in sight, I noticed that something in my mood(情绪) had changed. I was laughing.

It was a good joke to come up behind a naked boy, and push him into the pool. I made quite a habit of this with boys of
32、 my own size or less.One day I saw a boy wrapped in a towel on the side of the pool. He was no bigger than I was, so I thought him a fair game. Coming secretly behind, I pushed him in, holding on to his towel so that it would not get wet, I was surprised to see an angry face come out from the water,
33、 and a being of great strength making its way by face strokes (猛力地划)to the shore. I fled(逃跑), but in vain. He overtook me, seized me violently, and threw me into the deepest part of the pool. I soon climbed out on the other side, and found myself surrounded by a crowd of younger boys.” Do you know w
34、hat you have done?” they said, “Its Amery; he is in Grade Six. He is champion at gym; he has got his football honor.”I was frightened and felt ashamed. “How could I tell his position when he was wrapped in a bath towel and so small.” He didnt seem pleased at all, so I added in a most brilliant word,
35、 “My father, who is a great man, is also small.” Hearing that, he laughed, and after some general words about my rude behavior and how I had better be careful in the future, signified the incident was closed.65. The writer thought Amery” a fair game” because the boy . A. looked like an animal B. was

38、the writer for his rude behavior.CRemembering names is an important social skill. Here are some ways to master it.Recite and repeat in conversation.When you hear a persons name, repeat it. Immediately say it to yourself several times without moving your lips. You should also repeat the name in a way
39、 that does not sound forced or artificial.Ask the other person to recite and repeat. You can let other people help you remember their names. After youve been introduced to someone, ask that person to spell the name and pronounce it correctly for you. Most people will be pleased by the effort youre m
40、aking to learn their names. Admit you dont know. Admitting that you cant remember someones name can actually make people relaxed. Most of them will feel sympathy if you say, “Im working to remember names better. Yours is right on the tip of my tongue. What is it again?” Use associations.(联想) Link ea
41、ch person you meet with one thing you find interesting or unusual. For example, you could make a mental note: “Vicki Cheng-tall, black hair.” To reinforce(加强) your associations, write them on a small card as soon as possible. Limit the number of new names you learn at one time. When meeting a group
42、of people, concentrate on remembering just two or three names. Free yourself from remembering every one. Few of the people in mass introductions expect you to remember their names. Another way is to limit yourself to learning just first names. Last names can come later. Go early. Consider going earl
43、y to conferences, parties and classes. Sometimes just a few people show up on time. Thats fewer names for you to remember. And as more people arrive, you can hear them being introduced to othersan automatic review for you. 69. Most people will feel _ when you try hard to remember their names. A. mov
44、ed B. annoyed C. delighted D. discouraged70. If you cant remember someones name, you may _.A. tell him the truth B. tell him a white lieC. ask him for pity D. ask others to help you 71.

45、eir last names D. as many names as possible72. What does the text mainly tell us?A. Tips on an important social skill. B. Importance of attending parties.C. How to make use of associations. D. How to recite and repeat names.DEvery kid wishes to be an adult. But now as grown-ups, some adults find the
46、y cannot leave childhood behind. They become kidults (kid+adult). Being a kidult has become a lifestyle-choice among young people across Asia.Some kidults collect toys they once played with. Hello Kitty, Garfield, and Snoopy have many adult fans around the world. It is not unusual to see a 20-someth
47、ing woman with a big, Garfield-shaped cushion on her sofa or a Hello Kitty mobile phone accessory.(配件) Other kidults still enjoy childrens stories and fairy tales. For example, Bloomsbury even published the Harry Potter novels with an adult cover. That way, no one else on the subway will know that a
48、n adult is actually reading a childrens book!Kidults can be like vitamins to society. Adults who value their childhood and hold on to pure, child-like emotion may be needed in such a rough and dry society, said Lee Sojung, professor of Foreign Studies at Hankuk University(韩国外国语大学). He added that kid
49、ult culture may fill the generation gap between adults and kids. It could give children and their parents books, movies, and cartoon shows to enjoy together. He may be right.Tim Greenhalgh,a professor,explained that some kidults just refuse to grow up. They value childhood because life in a busy and

Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be pessimist. At least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know,
54、because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference, as well as the effect that colors have on human beings. 77 .
