This sometimes happens with humans also. But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people. I see it every day when peopl
2、e hold doors for me, pour cream into my coffee, or help me to put on my coat. And I have discovered that it makes them happy.From my wheelchair experience, I see the best in people, but sometimes I feel sad because those who appear independent miss the kindness I see daily. They dont get to see this
3、 soft side of others often. We try every way to avoid showing our weakness, which includes a lot of pretending. But only when we stop pretending were brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness thats in them.Last month, when I was driving home on a busy highway, I began to feel unwell an
4、d drove more slowly than usual. People behind me began to get impatient and angry, with some speeding up alongside me, horning (按喇叭) or even shouting at me.

5、 low speed.No more angry shouts and no more horns!When I put on my flashlights, I was saying to other drivers, “I have a problem here. I am weak and doing the best I can.” And everyone understood. Several times, I saw drivers who wanted to pass. They couldnt get around me because of the stream of pa
6、ssing traffic. But instead of getting impatient and angry, they waited, knowing the driver in front of them was in some way weak.Sometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we dont - 2 -feel that way.

10、ess and Strength D. A Driving ExperienceB.The website “FarmersOnly. com“ calls itself “an online dating and friendship finder. ” The idea started in the mind of a man, Jerry Miller in Ohio. He wondered how farmers could meet new people who understand the life of a farmer. Jerry Miller is not a farme
11、r but he represents a lot of farmers. As he tells it, the idea for the site was planted when a farmer told him one day that she was recently divorced and would like to date. But someone - 3 -would invite her to meet for coffee at nine oclock at night, when she had to start her day at five the next m
12、orning.So, in 2005, Jerry Miller launched his website. “You dont have to be a farmer to be on “FarmersOnly. com“. But you do have to have the good old-fashioned traditional values of Americas heartland. You also have to live in the United States or Canada to be a member of the site. ” Some services
13、are free, but a full membership costs fifty dollars for a year. As of last week the site listed more than 58,000 members. Many of them are farmers in the United States. Others are students or workers involved in some way with agriculture. Jerry Miller tells us about thirty marriages in the last year
14、 have resulted from his website.Some farmers have also found love through a group, “Singles in Agriculture”, which was formed as a nonprofit organization in 1986.

19、ering, medicine or any other science?We all know that science plays an important role in our societies. However, many people believe that our progress depends on two different aspects of science. The first aspect is the application of the machines, products and systems of knowledge that scientists a
20、nd technologists develop. The second is the application of the special methods of thought and action that scientists use in their work. What are these special methods of thinking and acting? First of all, it seems that a successful scientist is curious - he wants to find out how and why the universe
21、 works. He usually pays attention to problems which he notices have no satisfying explanation, and looks for relationships even if the data available seem to be unconnected. Moreover, he thinks he can improve the existing conditions and enjoys trying to solve the problems which this involves.He is a
22、 good observer, accurate, patient and objective and uses the facts he observes to the fullest. For example, trained observers obtain a very large amount of information about a star mainly from the accurate analysis of the simple lines that appear in a spectrum (光谱).He does not accept statements whic
23、h are not based on the most complete - 5 -evidence available. He rejects authority as the only basis for truth. Scientists always check statements and make experiments carefully and objectively.Furthermore, he does not readily accept his own idea, since he knows that man is the least reliable of sci
24、entific instruments and that a number of factors tend to disturb objective investigation.Lastly, he is full of imagination since he often has to look for relationships in data which are not only complex but also frequently incomplete. He needs imagination if he wants to guess how processes work and
25、how events take place.These seem to be some of the ways in which a successful scientist or technologist thinks and acts. 31. Many people believe that science helps society to progress through_A. knowledge only. B. more than one aspect.C. technology only. D. the use of machines.32. Which of the follo
26、wing statements about a curious scientist is TRUE?A. He doesnt find confidence and pleasure in work.B. He is interested in problems that are explained.C. He makes efforts to investigate potential connections.D. He looks for new ways of acting.33. According to the passage, a successful scientist woul
27、d NOT_.A. easily believe in unchecked statements. B. easily criticize others research work.C. always use his imagination in work. D. always use evidence from observation.34. Which word can be used to describe the data that a good scientist uses?A. complete B. objective C. complicated D. accurate35.
28、What does the passage mainly discuss?A. Application of technology. B. Progress in modem society.C. Scientists ways of thinking and acting. D. How to become a - 6 -successful scientist.DWhat is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, red? 36 . Do you prefer grays and blues? Then you are prob
29、ably 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, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference, as well as the effect that colors have on human beings. 37 . If you happen
30、to love brown, you did so, as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly. 38 . A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. 39 . A black bridge over the Th
31、ames River, near London, used to be the scene of more suicides（自杀）than any other bridge in the area -until it was repainted green . The number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply. Perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue. 40 . It is an establis
