the
Scientists
say we’re all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understood
how it works. One theory is that people with a good sense of direction have
simply worked harder at developing it. Research being carried out at
“Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around,” says Jim Martland, Research director of the project. “However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop the skills.”
Jim Martland also emphasizes that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction. He makes the following suggestions:
l If you are using a map, turn it so it relates to the way you are facing.
l If you leave your bike in a strange place, put it near something like a big stone or a tree----- something easy to recognize. Note landmarks on the route as you go away from your bike. When you return, go back along the same route.
l Simplify the way for finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town, streams, or walls in the countryside to guide you. Count your steps so that you know how far you have gone and note any landmarks such as tower blocks or hills which can help to find out where you are.
Now you will never get lost again!

Animals have the
power to make themselves understood by man, especially when they are in serious
danger and wish man to help them. And they often unite to help one another. I was on a sheep farm in
Together we followed the sheep back to where she had been feeding on the farm. She rushed forward and kept on looking back to see if we were coming.

people usually think they are a lot smarter than country people. They often
laugh at simple country ways. But people do not laugh at country music. It is
one of the most popular kinds of music in the
Perhaps it is so popular because it is about simple but strong human feelings and events -- love, sadness, good times and bad times. It tells real-life stories and sounds the way people really talk. As life becomes more and more complicated, it is good to hear music about ordinary people.
Country music, sometimes called country-and-western, comes from two
kinds of music. One is the traditional music of the people in the Appalachian Mountains

Have you ever been afraid to talk back when you were treated unfairly? Have you ever bought something just because the salesman talked you into it?
Many people are afraid to assert（维护，坚持） themselves. Dr. Robert Albert, author of STAND UP, SPEAK OUT and TALK BACK, thinks it is because their self-respect is low. “There’s always a superior around------ a parent, a teacher, a boss who knows better.” But Albert and other scientists are doing something to help people assert themselves.
They offer assertiveness training courses, A. T. for short. In the A. T. course people learn that they have a right to be themselves. They learn to speak out and feel good about doing so. They learn to be aggressive(敢作敢为的) without hurting other people.
In one way, learning to speak out is to get rid of fear. A group taking an A. T. course will help the timid person to lose his fear. But A. T. uses an even stronger motive to share the need. The timid person speaks out in the group because he wants to tell how he feels.
Whether or not you speak up for yourself depends on your self-respect. If your face is more important than you, you may feel less of a person. You start to doubt your answers to problems. However, once you get to feel good about yourself, you can learn to speak out.
74. The underlined word “timid” probably means “___________” in Chinese
A. 胆小的 B. 优秀的 C 勇敢的 D. 无知的
75. One thing the A.T. course doesn’t do is to _____________.
A.share the need of people

A
A young man was struggling hard on a dirt road to keep up his pace on a very hot day. He looked as if he had not taken a bath for a long time. From the look of his dirty, tattered(破烂的) clothes and his bare feet, one could say that he was a homeless person. He pressed on with heavy breathing and occasionally stopped to wipe the sweat off his forehead. Dry and thirsty as he was, he did not take a detour (绕道) to find a drink of water.
He then slowed down and came to a stop, putting his hand above his eyes to see who was standing far ahead of him. It was an old man of rather high social status. Even on such a hot day, the old man had put on his best clothes and very well dressed up. He patiently stood there waiting in the middle of the dirt road. It could have been hours…
The young man gathered whatever strength he had left and ran toward the old man with great emotions. He stopped right in front of the old man, gathered his calmness and whatever dignity(尊严)he had left. He was speechless…. His eyes met the old man’s, begging for forgiveness. The old man said nothing, although tears were rolling down his face already. He simply extended his welcome to the young man with opened arms. It had been a long time since someone embraced the young man with true love, but this time, it was even more, because it was the embrace of a father to his son who was once lost and now has found his way back.
51. We can judge the young man was a homeless person by______.
A. the fact that he had not taken a bath for a long time.
B. the look of his dirty clothes and his bare feet.
C. the fact that he had not eaten anything for a few days.
D. the fact that he was struggling hard on a dirt road
52. The underlined phrase “pressed on” in the first paragraph probably means______.
A. walked rather fast B. walked very slowly
C. walked aimlessly D. walked with pain
53. The old man of rather high social status had stood there for hours in order to _______.
A. meet one of his good friends.
B. wait for his son to come back
C. see the special scenery there
D. do the young man a favor
54. From the last paragraph, we can infer that ______.
A. the young man had been away from home for about several hours.
B. the old man didn’t like his son.
C. the young man realized it was not right to leave home.
D. the old man took the young man for his son
55. Which of the following statement is TRUE?
A. The young man was very poor.
B. The young man was lost in the forest.

D. The old man drove his son out of home.

Ice cream is girls’ favorite. Having a sweet ice cream on a hot summer afternoon is really an enjoyable thing. But sweet ice cream will bring you not only a good taste, but also many calories, which will make you gain weight. So, why not have a try to make a healthy drink by yourself? Here is a recipe of making a fruit smoothie (思慕西). It’s really very easy. What’s more, it is very good for girls who want to keep fit!
First, we need two bananas. Choose another kind of fruit, such as strawberries, peaches and pineapples. You can also mix several kinds of fruits. Then peel the fruits, remove the seeds, and slice the fruits if necessary. Put the prepared fruits, ice and orange juice into a blender(搅拌机). Cover and turn on the blender. Blend at high speed for about three minutes. Now you can pour it into a tall glass and enjoy it.
Tips:
You can use any kind of fruit. And you can also add honey. For example, honey, lemons, and mangoes will give you another wonderful taste.
If you freeze (冷冻) the fruits before making the smoothie, the drink will be colder. But if you think it takes much time, you can buy frozen fruits in supermarkets.
You can use another kind of fruit juice or milk, even water in place of orange juice.
If you don’t like bananas, you can add more fruits instead, but we think bananas are the best choice because they can help thicken the smoothie.
Instead of using fruits, one of my friends likes to use vegetables such as carrots, cucumbers and tomatoes. It is a great drink, too, especially for those who are fond of healthy drinks, and who want to lose weight.
If you want to know more recipes of healthy drinks, just visit other web pages on this website. More wonderful drinks are waiting for you!

Learning in the future will surely not be the same as it is today. Science will help the children of the future to learn and explore their worlds in ways we can’t even imagine.
The Internet will get better. Kids can search for the information with search engines at present. But in the future, the Internet will be available in every classroom and home in the world, so students can research projects in new ways. They needn’t understand how to use the search engines. Computers can understand languages and kids will be able to ask for information for a project without spending lots of time searching the Internet. They just ask for it and it will be there. That’s what fuzzy logic(模糊逻辑)will be about. They will be able to make their own web pages and store their projects by speaking to the computers.
Virtual reality(虚拟现实)will be used for other things besides video games and computer games. It can also be used in studying. Kids can see shapes and feel them. This will make math fun! If a kid wants to do a project on a country, maybe he can visit the country, and experience everyday life there through virtual reality, but he needn’t go there himself. Or maybe he can virtually meet a person from that country, and discuss how life is different. Students will be able to learn through experiencing instead of reading. Dangerous experiments would be safe and fun since the students won’t have to worry about injuries because they don’t need to do the experiments in practice.
In the future, video conferences (会议) will be cheaper and faster than today. Kids can talk with others from all around the world at any time and any place. If they need tips from others, instead of sending e-mails, they can meet others, and watch them as they work. They will be able to use video conferencing to talk with scientists who can answer all the questions the kids have.
