16、adlines.These techniques are used on the front page because it is the first thing you see when you pick up the paper.The first page attracts attention and encourages the readers to look through the rest of the paper.This is why editors always look for a good first page story and a headline to make t
17、hem stop and look.If the headline is horrible enough or frightening enough or wild enough, perhaps they will not go on to read the front page anymore.They may read the headlines, but that is all, then they turn to the sports page, or comics, or advertisements.It seems that people do not want the new
18、s from a newspaper anymore.They say they get the news on the television now.More people watch television news because it is easier and more interesting than reading a newspaper.What about you?

23、d.In the United States，people greet each other with a handshake in a formal introduction.The handshake must be firm.If the handshake is weak, it is a sign of weakness or unfriendliness.Friends may place a hand on the others arm or shoulder.Some people, usually women，greet a friend with a hug.【来源：j*y
24、.co*m】Space is important to Americans.When two people talk to each other, they usually stand about two and a half feet away and at an angle, so they are not facing each other directly.Americans get uncomfortable when a person stands too close.They will move back to have their space.If Americans touc
25、h another person by accident，they say, “Pardon me.”or“Excuse me.”Americans like to look at the other person in the eyes when they are talking.If you dont do so, it means you are bored，hiding something，or are not interested.But when you stare at someone，it is not polite.For Americans, thumbs-up means
26、 yes, very good，or well done.Thumbs-down means the opposite.To call a waiter，raise one hand to head level or above.To show you want the check， make a movement with your hands as if you are signing a piece of paper.It is all right to point at things but not at people with the hand and index finger (食

31、 been the inspiration for hundreds of songs，but now scientists have discovered that the star at the centre of our solar system produces its own music.Astronomers at the University of Sheffield have managed to record for the first time in the world the eerie musical harmonies produced by the magnetic
32、 field (磁场) in the outer atmosphere of the sun.They found that huge coronal loops (日冕环) that have been observed spinning away from the outer layer of the suns atmosphere vibrate (振动) like strings on a musical instrument.Using satellite pictures of these loops, which can be over 60,000 miles long, th
33、e scientists were able to recreate the sound by turning the visible vibrations into noises and speeding up the frequency so that people can hear them.Professor Robertus von Fy-Siebenbrgen said, “It was strangely beautiful and exciting to hear these noises for the first time from such a large and pow
34、erful source.It is providing us with a new way of learning about the sun and giving us a new insight into the physics about the suns outer layers where temperatures reach millions of de grees.”The coronal loops are thought to be involved in the production of solar flares that throw magnetic energy o
35、ut into space，creating a phenomenon known as space weather.When the suns activity, and thus solar flare production, increases，the resulting “space storm” can have severe results here on earth, destroying electronic equipment, overheating power networks and damaging satellites.Professor Fy-Siebenbrge
36、n said that studying the“music of the sun” would provide new ways of understanding and predicting solar flares before they happen.Professor Fy-Siebenbrgens research has been shown as the University of Sheffield sets up a new project, called Project Sunshine, aimed at finding new ways to control the
37、power of the sun.“These loops are vibrating like the strings on a guitar.Over time the waves die away and that is telling us new things about the physics in the suns atmosphere， ”he said.46The underlined word“eerie” in Paragraph 1 can be replaced by“_”Acommon BworryingCmysterious Dfamiliar47What can

41、sun storms die away over time.DEmily Elizabeth Dickinson was born on December 10,1830 in the quiet community of Amherst, Massachusetts， the second daughter of Edward and Emily Norcross Dickinson.Emily, Austin (her elder brother) and her younger sister Lavinia were raised in a quiet, reserved family
42、headed by their authoritative father Edward.Throughout Emilys life, her mother was not “emotionally accessible”， the absence of which might have caused some of Emilys strange behaviors.The Dickinson family was famous in Amherst.Unlike her father, Emily did not enjoy the popularity and excitement of
43、public life in Amherst, and she began to withdraw.Emily.did not fit in with her fathers religion in Amherst, and her father began to monitor the books she read because of their potential to draw her away from the faith.2-1-c-n-j-yEmily had a good education and attended the Amherst Academy.Although E
44、mily never married, she had several important relationships with a select few.In her early twenties, Emily began to write poetry seriously.Fortunately， Emily met two very influential men that would be sources of inspiration and guidance: Charles Wadsworth and Thomas Wentworth Higginson.Charles Wadsw
45、orth, aged 41, had a powerful effect on Emilys life and her poetry.On her trip to Philadelphia, Emily met Wadsworth, who was to become her “dearest earthly friend”Wadsworth, like Dickinson, was a solitary (喜欢独处的), romantic person that Emily could trust in when writing her poetry.Most importantly，it
46、is widely believed that Emily had a great love for Wadsworth even though he was married.On April 15, 1862 she met Thomas Wentworth Higginson，a famous literary man and sent four poems to ask for his advice about publication.Although Higginson advised Dickinson against publishing her poetry, he did se
47、e the creative talent in her poetry.As a result, only seven of her poems were published in her lifetime.On May 15, 1886 Emily took her last breath at 56, leaving behind nearly 2,000 poems.51According to Paragraph 1, Emily Dickinson_.Ahad at least three sistersBwas the second child in the familyCwas born in a rich familyDhad an authoritative mother52Who might be responsible for Emilys strange behaviors according to the passage?AEdward Dickinson.BEmily Norcross Dickinson.CAustin Dickinson.DLavinia Dickinson.53Why did Emily probably regard
