I remember the old woman who taught me to iron. I was about 15 and I had to get a job taking care of a woman to make a livin
28、g. She had been an able-bodied, healthy woman until the accident that caused her to be paralyzed.The woman sat in an electric wheelchair all day. She could only move her head and arms. She would tell me how to do things. She would teach me in great detail on the correct ways to do things. Her home w
29、as perfect and beautiful. She would follow me around in her electric wheelchair to make sure I did everything exactly right. Im sure she had been a perfect homemaker.

31、right way to do the trousers. Now when I think about it, I dont think she is an old lady. I think she might have been about my age now.

34、 close and real, yet disappear soon. They dont feel hurt .If the same two people meet again, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand. Friendships between us develop more slowly but may become lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) deeply int
35、o both families. There is another difficult point for us to understand .Although Americans treat friends warmly in their personal everyday lives, they dont show their politeness to them if it requires a great deal of time. But in China, we are usually generous with our time. We, as hosts, will appea
36、r at an airport even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off from our work to act as guides to our friends. It is opposite in America .Americans can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily plans. They will probably expect the visitors to ge
37、t themselves from the airport to the hotels. And they expect the visitors will phone them from there. Once the visitors arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. For Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to restaurants, except fo
38、r business matters. Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life .So accept their hospitality(好客) at home and enjoy your visit in America ! 58.The underlined phrase “pick up” in Paragraph 1 may mean “_”.

41、ably written for_ . A .American students B .Chinese students C. Chinese visitors to America D. American visitors to China DYou are probably familiar with the saying：An apple a day keeps the doctor away. A recent research carried out by the Chinese University of Hong Kong may change the saying：An app
42、le a day may keep aging away.The research chose fruit flies(果蝇), as they share many genes(基因)with humans. The fruit flies were either fed normally or had an apple extract(浓缩物) added to their diet.It turned out that those fruit flies that were given apple extract lived about 55 daysfive days longer t
43、han the flies that were normally fed. The research group also found it easier for the flies to walk，climb and move about as they aged.According to the result, the researchers believed that the antioxidants(抗氧化剂) in the apple extract helped clean up dangerous chemicals(化学物质) that cause illnesses，as w
44、ell as aging.In another study，researchers examined diets of thousands of women. They discovered that those who regularly ate apples were 20 percent less likely to suffer heart illnesses and stroke.The apples genetic code(遗传密码) was discovered recently. It allows scientists to develop nicer and health
45、ier fruits. Researchers are already using the information to grow a kind of apples full of antioxidants that can keep eyes and joints healthy and protect humans against heart illnesses and cancer.Apples that kill the desire(欲望) to eat could also be produced, with the first“extra-healthyapples on sup
46、ermarket shelves within just four or five years.The team that keeps studying apple DNA includes 100 scientists from five countries. Their research also suggests that around 65 million years ago, when dinosaurs began to die off the plant，which would finally become todays apple tree, experienced a great genetic change. The number of many of its genes doubled. The extra genes allowed the apple to get used to worse conditions and go through a different development from peaches，strawberries and other related fruits.62Why were fruit flies used for the
