33、e so useful, but seem so simple, that we wonder why no one thought of them long ago. Post-it Notes were invented about twenty years ago by Art Fry, a scientist at 3M Company. The idea for the product came from an awful experience he often had while singing in his church choir. Fry used pieces of pap
34、er as bookmarks to mark the places in his book of songs, but these bookmarks were always falling out. Around that time, Fry heard about a new adhesive (粘合剂) that a colleague, Dr. Spence Silver, had created. This adhesive was special because it was strong enough to hold papers together, but not stron
35、g enough to tear the paper when it was removed. A short time later, Fry realized that his new invention had even more uses than being a great bookmark. He came to this realization when he wrote a note on one of his new “bookmarks” and attached it to a report he was going to give to a colleague. Soon
36、, co-workers were asking Fry for more of his invention so that they could use the new type of notes themselves.Fry and some other people at 3M believed so much in the new product that they asked the company to give away thousands of the “sticky pieces of paper” for trial use. When some salespeople a
37、t 3M went to offices and showed workers just how helpful the new type of notes could be, they immediately received many orders. As more and more people discovered how useful Post-it Notes could be, the product took off.65. How did Dr. Spence help Art Fry? A. He created the Post-it Notes.B. He offere
38、d the new adhesive to Art. C. His adhesive made Arts invention possible.D. He often worked and discussed science with Art.66. Which of the following is a possible use of Post-it Notes?A. A note on a friends doorB. An ad in a newspaper.C. A postcard from abroad. D. An e-mail to a friend.67. Which of
39、the following shows the proper order of the events?a. The company gave away many “sticky pieces of paper” for people to try. b. Dr. Spence created a new adhesive.c. Many orders were received and the Post-it Notes became successful.d. Fry invented Post-it Notes.e. His colleagues began to use the new
40、types of notes themselves.A. d b a e c B. b a e d cC. d e a b c D. b d e a c 68. In which column of a newspaper can we read this passage?A. Entertainment(娱乐)B. SportsC. Science D. CultureCOnce upon a time two brothers who lived on neighboring farms got into a quarrel.It was the first serious one in
41、40 years of farming side by side, sharing machinery without argument. One morning there was a knock on the older brothers door. He opened it and saw a carpenter (木匠) with a toolbox asking for some work to do. The older brother agreed and asked the carpenter to build him a fence so that he would not
42、see his brothers place or face any more. He told the carpenter he was angry with his brothers behavior of making a stream to separate their fields. The carpenter said, “I think I understand the situation and Ill be able to do a job that pleases you.” The older brother had to go to town, so the carpe
43、nter worked hard all that day measuring, nailing, and hammering on his own.About sunset when the farmer returned, the carpenter had just finished his job. The farmers eyes opened wide, his jaw dropped. There was no fence there at all. It was a bridgea bridge stretching from one side of the stream to
44、 the other! Then the neighbor, his younger brother, was coming across, his hand outstretched. The two brothers stood at each end of the bridge, and then they met in the middle, taking each others hands and hugged. They turned to seethe carpenter lift up his toolbox on his shoulder. “No, wait! Stay a
45、 few days. Ive a lot of other projects for you,” said the older brother. “Id love to stay on,” the carpenter said, “but I have many more bridges to build.”69.

48、gestion chargeUS President Barack Obama will have to pay the London congestion charge for his large vehicle,(车辆) “The Beast”. Each car in the Presidents fleet (车队) will be billed $16 for traveling through the center of London in rush hours during his state visit, the Daily Mail of London reported Sa
49、turday. “Our roads were not closed during the Presidents visit so his fleet will pay.” London Mayor Boris Johnson said. The US embassy (大使馆) claims it doesnt need to pay the charge (收费)because it is technically a charge which should be for UK citizens alone.Man who lives in his RVThere is nothing ne
50、w about someone traveling in a recreational vehicle (RV) or even living in one. But if someone parks his RV beside his 100-square-meter apartment and lives in it for 5 years, it may be considered strange. Wang Hongxing, a 53-year-old Beijinger, has seldom slept at his home since he bought his RV in
51、2006. “I loved it at first sight,” Wang, who runs an RV club, said. “And I wouldnt exchange my present life no matter how fancy the house is.” The RV industry in China is still in its early years compared with those in Europe and the US.“I think its great fun. An RV is more than simply a means of tr
52、avel to me; it is a way of life. You would say someone is rich if he drives a BMW instead of an RV. And RV owners dont have to be the rich ones, either. Id say we just know more about what is real happiness in life, something more than just buying luxuries (奢侈品).”73The US embassy refuses to pay the
