Emoticons or smileys explained
An Emoticon (or Smiley) is a sequence of ordinary characters you can find on your computer keyboard. Emoticons are used in e-mail, chat, SMS(短信) and other forms of communication using computers. The most popular emoticons are the smiling faces (smileys or smilies) that people use to say “don't take what I just wrote too seriously”. If you don't see that it represents a smiling face, tip your head to the left and look at it again. The colon represents the eyes, the dash represents the nose, and the right parenthesis represents the mouth. Many people use MSN and Yahoo, for this reason I added a list with MSN and Yahoo emoticons. When using these during your chat session, they will be converted to real icons.
Emoticons(情感符)
Emoticons (emotional icons) are used to compensate for the inability to convey voice inflections, facial expressions, and bodily gestures in written communication. Some emoticons are better known as “smileys”. Emoticons can be very effective toward avoiding misinterpretation of the writer’s intents. While there are no standard definitions for the following emoticons, we have supplied their most usual meanings. Most emoticons will look like a face (eyes, nose, and mouth) when rotated 90 degree clockwise.
:) or :-) Expresses happiness, sarcasm, or joke
:( or :-( Expresses unhappiness
:] or :-] Expresses jovial happiness
:[ or :-[ Expresses despondent unhappiness
:D or :-D Expresses jovial happiness
:I or :-I Expresses indifference
:-/ or :-\ Indicates undecided, confused, or skeptical. Also :/ or :\.
:Q or :-Q Expresses confusion
:S or :-S Expresses incoherence or loss of words
:@ or :-@ Expresses shock or screaming
:O or :-O Indicates surprise, yelling or realization of an error ("uh oh!")

Sign Language
For many years, no one could communicate with people who had been born without hearing. These deaf people were not able to use a spoken language.
But, beginning in the 1700s, the deaf were taught a special language. Using this language, they could share thoughts and ideas with others. The language they used was a language without sound. It was a sign language.
How did this sign language work The deaf were taught to make certain movements using their hands, faces, and bodies. These movements stood for things and ideas. People might move their forefingers across their lips. This meant, “you are not telling the truth.” They might tap their chins (下巴) with three fingers. This meant “my uncle.”
The deaf were also taught to use a finger alphabet. They used their fingers to make the letters of the alphabet. In this way, they spelled out words. Some deaf people could spell out words at a speed of 130 words per minute. Sign language and finger spelling are not used as much as they once were. Today, the deaf are taught to understand others by watching their lips. They are also taught how to speak.
Introduction to Braille
Louis Braille invented "Braille", a world wide system of embossed type used by blind and partially sighted people for reading and writing. It has been adapted to almost every known language, from Albanian to Zulu.
He died in 1852 and, for a while, it seemed as if this system would die with the inventor. Thankfully a few key people realised the importance of this invention. In 1868, Dr Thomas Armitage led a group of four blind men to found the British and Foreign Society for Improving the Embossed Literature of the Blind.
This small band of friends grew and grew to become Royal National Institute of the Blind (RNIB). We are now the largest publisher of Braille in Europe. Our pioneering work helps anyone with a sight problem - not just with Braille, Talking Books and computer training, for example, but with imaginative and practical solutions to everyday challenges.
Where does the story begin
Louis Braille was born in a small town near Paris in 1809. One day when Louis Braille was a small boy, he crept into his father's workshop to play. He had often seen his father making shoes and he decided he would like to try. He picked up an awl, a sharp, pointed tool used for making holes in leather. As he bent over, the awl slipped and pierced his eye, destroying it forever. Some time later his other eye became infected by the first and he lost his sight altogether. He was aged only 4, but still went on to become one of the most famous Frenchmen ever to live.
Louis Braille's school years
Despite his sight loss the young child attended the village school with his sighted friends for two years. Eventually it became clear that he would not be able to learn much more, largely because he could not read or write. Without an education it was likely that he would have to beg on the streets, like other blind people at that time.
At the age of ten he was lucky enough to be sent to a school for blind boys in Paris, one of the first in the world. Conditions in the school were very harsh. The building was damp and unhealthy and discipline was severe. Pupils who misbehaved were beaten, locked up and given stale bread and water. In fact, this kind of discipline was common in all schools at that time. Life was harsh for nearly everyone and most sighted children left school at the age of 12 and went to work in factories or in mines.
At the school in Paris the blind pupils were taught practical skills like chair caning and slipper making so that when they left the school they would be able to make a living. Once a week, after lunch, the boys were taken for a walk in the park, linked together by a long rope.
They were also taught to read but not to write. The letters they read were raised above the surface of the page so that they could feel them with their fingertips. This form of writing was very difficult to read because it was very hard to tell the letters apart. The letters were printed by pressing copper wire into one side of the paper to make a raised shape on the other. Because each individual letter had to be made out of wire first and because the wire then had to be forced into the paper with a press blind people were unable to write anything for themselves.
One day something happened that changed the lives of blind people forever. In 1821, a soldier named Charles Barbier visited Louis' school. He bought with him a system he had invented called "night writing". Night writing had originally been designed so that soldiers could pass instructions along trenches at night without having to talk and give their positions away. It consisted of twelve raised dots which could be combined to represent different sounds. Unfortunately it proved to be too complex for soldiers to master and was therefore rejected by the army.
How did he develop Braille
The young Louis Braille quickly realised how useful this system of raised dots could be, provided it was simplified. Over the next few months he experimented with different systems until he found an ideal system using six dots. He continued to work on the scheme for several years after, developing separate codes for maths and music. In 1827 the first book in Braille was published.
Even so, the new system did not catch on immediately. Sighted people did not understand how useful Braille could be and one head teacher at the school even banned the children from learning it. Fortunately this seemed to have the effect of encouraging the children even more and they took to learning it in secret. Eventually even sighted people began to realise the benefits of the new system.
Not only could people with sight problems read Braille but they could also write it for themselves using a simple stylus to make the dots. For the first time blind and partially sighted people began to be truly independent and to take control of their own lives.
What did he go on to do
Louis Braille eventually became a teacher in the school where he had been a student. He was admired and respected by his pupils but, unfortunately, he did not live to see his system widely adopted. He had always been plagued by ill health and in 1852, at the age of 43, he died from tuberculosis.
In France itself, Louis Braille's achievement was finally recognised by the state. In 1952 his body was moved to Paris where it was buried in the Pantheon, the home of France's national heroes.
Dance and communication
Distance Information
With increasing distance the number of circuits (8's) per unit time decreases and the length and duration of the individual circuits increases. For example, for a goal at 100 meters it makes 10 short circuits in 15 seconds but at 3 km only 3 long circuits in the same time. The duration of the wagging part has the best correlation with distance. The distance is calculated based on the expenditure of energy on the flight towards the source (a head-wind increases it). Each recruited bee averages many dance circuits or even several dances from different bees to calculate the distance. For each bee species a distance-frequency curve can be plotted. It is remarkably precise, especially if the distance is not close to their foraging range limit.
Compass Information
If the dance floor is horizontal (the least common case in Nature), the indication of direction is straight-forward: the wagging (straight) portion of the eight-figure dance points towards the food source (and in the same direction as the bee runs through it). But, what does the dancing bee use as compass to accurately point in the right direction The bee reference is the direction of the sun. This can be demonstrated easily by covering the sky and using a lamp as an artificial sun: the direction of dancing will rotate, always maintaining the same angle with the lamp as the angle with the sun during direct flight towards the food.

一、双基提要
To the west and off the European Continent, there are several thousands of island on the continental shelf(大陆架). They are generally called the British Isles( 大不列颠岛). Of all the isles, the largest one is called the Great Britain. The name Great Britain was not applied to this large area island until the 17th century, its southern part adopted the name England in the 5th century when groups of invaders fro Northern Europe, traditionally called the Angles, Saxons and Jutes, were taking possessing of this area. Their language, the English language, spread far and wide and later became the official language of the nation. The “Engl-” part of the word comes from the word Angles while the “-ish” part means “belonging to”. The word English means “the language that belongs to the Angles”.

Like many people you may be dreaming of a career as a rock and roll star. There are two ways to go about getting one. First there is the traditional way. Find some friends and form a group. Learn to play the guitar or the drums. Write your own songs. Spend hours arguing about the band name. Then go out on the road.
The next step is to spend a year or two touring. If you are any good, the crowds will get bigger. In the end an artist from a record company may come to a show. If he or she likes you, there may be a deal (交易).This is the path traditionally followed by bands in the music industry. Success means fame and wealth. And failure gives you some interesting stories to tell your children.
Over the last few years a different path to success has become known. Boy bands like Boyzone and girl bands like Spice Girls don’t come together on their own. They are created by managers and record companies. Their image (形象) is strictly controlled. Professional(专业) song writers usually write their music. This is a convenient arrangement and the public seems to love the result.
Though boy and girl bands have become very popular recently, there is a long tradition of making music in this way. In the early 1960’s an American businessman called Berry Gordy founded Motown Records. Motown is short for “motor town”. The record company was based in the city of Detroit, where thousands of African-Americans had moved to work in the car industry. They brought with them a cultural tradition of writing and performing music. This style later became known as “soul music”. Berry Gordy was a diamond miner. Motown stars were not just given songs to sing. They were also taught how to dress well and speak properly.

A. why the record company is forming more bands

2. If a newborn band wants to succeed, as the writer tells, it must have the chance_______.
A. to travel in big cities B. to meet a businessman

A. Motown was only enjoyed by the workers in Detroit

“Depend on yourself”is what nature says to every man. Parents can help you. Teachers can help you. Others still can help you. But all these only help you to help yourself.
There have been many great men in history. But many of them were very poor in boyhood, and had no uncles, aunts, or friends to help them. Schools were few and low. They could not depend on them for an education. They saw how it was, and set to work with all their strength to know something. They worked their own way up to fame.
One of the most famous teachers in England used to tell his pupils, “I cannot make worthy men of you, but I can help you make men of yourselves. ”
Some young men have no ambitions(雄心)to do anything ; and they are to be pitied. They can never succeed unless they see their foolishness, and change their courses. They are nothing now, and will be nothing as long as they live, unless they accept the advice of parents and teachers. and depend upon their own honest and serious efforts.

Upset Grandma Criticizes Daughter’s Ways as A Mom
Dear Abby,
This is my first letter to you, although I have been reading your column for many years. I need an outside opinion.
I am a grandmother in my 70s and have just returned from visiting my daughter, her husband and their three dearly loved children—all under the age of 5—and I’m upset with some of their parenting ways.
For example:
They lock the doors to their children’s bedrooms at night because “the children might get out of their beds and wander around the house, and we may not hear them.”
If one child should get punishment, all three are punished, and if one child says a naughty word, all three are given hot sauce (辣酱汁) in the mouth.
I know these parents love their children very much, but are these ways of disciplining them wise Please understand, it is not my aim to interfere (干涉) .

Around the world more and more people are taking part in dangerous sports and activities. Of course, there have always been people who have locked for adventure—those who have climbed the highest mountains, traveled into unknown parts of the world or sailed in small boats across the greatest oceans. Now, however, there are people who try to find an immediate thrill from a risky or dangerous activity which may only last a few minutes or even seconds.
I would consider bungee-jumping to be a good example of such an activity. You jump from a high place(perhaps a bridge or a hot-air balloon)200 meters above the ground with an elastic(有弹性的)rope tied to your ankles(脚脖子). You fall at up to 150 kilometers an hour until the rope stops you from hitting the ground. Other activities which most people would say are as risky as bungee-jumping include jumping from tall buildings and diving into the sea from the top of high cliffs(峭壁).
Why do people take part in such activities as these Some psychologists suggest that it is because life in modern society has become safe and boring. Life, according to many people, offers little excitement. They only live and work safely and comfortably. The answer for some of these people is to try to find danger in activities such as bungee-jumping.
1. What’s the thrilling and risky activity which may only last a very short moment
A. Mountain-climbing. B. Bungee-jumping.
C. Region-exploring. D. Boat-sailing.
2. Which of the following shows the movement in bungee-jumping
3. People take part in dangerous sports mainly because_________.
A. they want to have a change in sports
B. there is not much work for them to do
C. there is not much excitement in their lives
D. they are worried about such sports

Leonardo da Vinci began painting the Mona Lisa in 1503. He was working on a special painting for a church at the time, but the church painting was not going well. An Italian businessman asked Leonardo da Vinci to paint a picture of the businessman’s second wife. This is the woman who can be seen in the Mona Lisa.
In a word, the Mona Lisa is a very good example of Leonardo da Vinci’s work. Leonardo da Vinci uses darkness and light in a clever way in the painting.
Leonardo da Vinci loved science and maths. Right away a person can see that there is a lot of geometry(几何学)in the Mona Lisa. The face of the Mona Lisa is made of many circles and round shapes like balls. Even her smile can be seen as a small part of a large circle.
The woman in the painting is sitting on a balcony(阳台), and mountains can be seen behind her. Leonardo da Vinci loved to study rocks and mountains, so these can be seen over and over in his other paintings.
The woman is sitting with her knees to the side. Her head is turned to look out of the painting. Her hands are held together in front of her. This way of sitting is now used by many artists when they are painting a picture of a man or woman today.
4. Who painted the Mona Lisa
A. A businessman. B. Leonardo da Vinci.
C. His second wife. D. The businessman’s wife.
5. The woman in the painting is_______.
A. an Italian businesswoman B. Leonardo da Vinci’s wife
C. the wife of a businessman D. a woman from the church
6. Where is the woman in the painting
A. On a balcony. B. On a knee.
C. On a mountain. D. On a rock.
7. What can a person see in the painting
A. A lot of geometry. B. Clever use of light and darkness.
C. Mountains. D. All of the above.

Flags have existed for over 3000 years. The earliest flags were wooden or metal poles(杆) topped with a carving(雕刻品). About 2000 years ago pieces of fabric (织物) were added to some poles for decoration (装饰). Over the next 500 years the free-flying part of the flag became more important.
Every country today has its own flag. Many groups and organizations also have a flag that stands for, or symbolizes, the aims of the group.
The Flag of the United Nations depicts (描绘)a world map, centered on the north pole. The map is surrounded by an olive(橄榄)wreath(花环)symbolizing peace and co-operation. The flag is blue and white.
8. Flags have been existed for _________.
A. 500 years B. over 3000 years
8C. about 2000 years D. between 500 and 2000 years
9. A very old flag is likely to _________.

When I opened my E – mail the other day, a pretty woman named Rachel appeared on my computer screen. She greeted me by name and started talking with great enthusiasm (热情). Every now and then she stopped to smile at me or blow a kiss. She was reading to me an E – mail from my brother, and a lot of it was about his getting the phone company to give him a high speed Internet connection. It was pretty cool.
Rachel was there thanks to a new technology called Facemail. Facemail lets you send E-mail that gets read to the receiver by an attractive male of female form of by a clown (小丑). The software, which is free, can be downloaded at www. .
Facemail faces are lifelike, and they simulate (模仿) emotions based on emotions – for example – that you put in your text. Type in :-X ,and Rachel blows a kiss.
Life FX, the company that develops the Face – mail, is sure there are broad business uses.
The reason E – business is not popular, the company says, is that buying over the Internet lacks the human touch. But what if you went to the Nike website and Michael Jordan greeted you by name, waited on you and personally closed the sale And it is talking with Whirlpool about using the technology in a computer screen on a fridge. Then if Mom can’t be home when kids get back from school, she can leave a note with voice and image telling them what there is to eat.
Facemail could get hot fast. Personally, I’m a fan. But Facemail should be used with care. The clown looks lively and funny at first. But if you select the clown, put a few rude words in an E – mail and add some angry emotions, you’ve got Psychomail(心理邮件).
1. The pretty woman that appears on the writer’s computer screen was _________.
A. a woman working on the Internet B. his brother’s girlfriend
C. not a real person D. the picture of his penfriend
2. The main advantage of Facemail is that_________.
A. you can hire a beautiful woman to read the E – mail to you
B. you can see the person who sends you the E mail
C. you can see the person who sends you the E – mail as you like
D. E – mail can be read in a more lovely way
3. We can infer from the passage that Facemail _________.
A. is likely to be used in other aspects of our daily life
B. can destroy your E – mail if not properly used
C. can be downloaded free of charge D. will take the place of the E – mail system.
4. The writer mentioned Nike website and Michael Jordan to show that .
A. Famous people like Michael Jordan also like to use facemail
B. facemail can make shopping on the Internet more interesting
C. Nike website will increase its sales by Jordan
D. Michael Jordan will serve you himself on Nike website

A. He thinks it needs further improvement. B. He thinks it cool and funny.
C. He thinks it a danger to the Internet. D. He thinks people should be careful with Facemail.

Net library is a library that lends out digital(数字化) books. It treats a digital book like a paperback copy. It charges libraries per book per copy and gives publishers a cut of the total income.
From the consumer’s point of view, this means that if more than, say, five people want the latest Danielle Steel romance novel, other people who request that book will get a message saying the title is unavailable.
It’s a model many publishers seem to have embraced. More than 350 gave the company rights to hand out their digital works, and McGraw-Hill Corporation and Houghton Mifflin Corporation have put money in the company. The California public libraries and about 1,800 others across the US are trying out the Net Library service.
Some librarians criticize the New Library model. Stanford University librarian Michael Keller argues that the company is creating an unnatural fear of digital works, which is contrary to the ideas of the Internet.
Keller and some other librarians argue for the e-book vision set forth by EBrary. EBrary is starting a service that lets us users read books for free.
But it will charge about 25 cents a page when a person tries to print out material or copy and paste it into a different file or tries to download a copy onto an computer.
Christopher Warnock, chief executive of EBrary, believes most consumers won’t want to buy entire books, only the parts that interest them.
“There’s not really a lot of good in owning an electronic file and having to store it and manage it. It doesn’t make sense,” he said.
6. How do publishers get money from the Net Library
A. They get money from selling their books to the Net Library.
B. They share the money with the Net Library.
C. They get money by cutting the cost of the books. D. They get the money from the readers.
7. The underlined word “embraced” in the 3rd paragraph means _____.
A. taken something willingly B. held something tightly
C. disliked something badly D. tried out something hard
8. From the 2nd paragraph we can see consumers ______.
A. don’t care if they are charged money B. enjoy the service of the Net Library
C. don’t like other people borrowing books
D. complain about the limited number of the new books
9. What does the last paragraph mean
A. Net Library is not a good way for the consumers.
B. There is no need for consumers to have a whole book.
C. Ebrary is not a good library for the consumers.
D. It’s reasonable to charge the consumers money for copying some pages.
Period 7 Grammar (2)
一、双基提要
名词性从句考点及热点问题
名词性从句包括主语从句、宾语从句、表语从句和同位语从句。因为它是从句,因此具有句子的特点,有主、谓成份;同时又具有名词性特点,所以可以在句子中作主语、宾语、表语或同位语。
1、引导词what与that的用法区别。
引导主、宾、表语从句时,what要充当主语、宾语或表语等句子成分,that不作任何成分,只在语法上起连接的作用。例如(NMET’96):
____ we can’t get seems better than ____ we have.
A. What; what B. what; that C. That; that D. That; what (答案A )
That the former Iraq president Saddam was captured has been proved.
2、引导词whether和if的用法区别。
通常,引导主语从句、表语从句和引导同位语从句时,要用连词whether,不用if;习惯上也只能说whether or not,而不说if …or not。例如(MET92):
____ the 2000 Olympic Games will be held in Beijing is not known yet.
A. Whenever B. If C. Whether D. That (答案为C)
3、名词性从句的语序。
与别的从句一样,名词性从句必须用自然语序,即使在疑问句中,从句也不倒装(而在主句上倒装)。例如(MET91):
No one can be sure ____ in a million years.
A. what man will look like B. what will man look like
C. man will look like what D. what look will man like (答案为A)
4、Who / whoever, what / whatever等的用法区别。
一般说来,what/who等含特指意义,而whatever/whoever等含泛指意义,意为“无论什么/无论谁”。例如(NMET97):
It is generally considered unwise to give a child ____ he or she wants.
A. however B. whatever C. whichever D. whenever (答案为B)
5、Where, when, why等连接副词引导的名词性从句。
Where, when, why等连接副词也可以引导名词性从句,使用的关键是:这个词必须符合句子的逻辑要求。例如(NMET’99):
— I drove to Zhuhai for the air show last week.
— Is that ____ you had a few days off
A. why B. when C. that D. where (答案为A)
6、同位语从句引导词where, when的用法特点。
说明先行词内容的同位语从句的引导词where, when与被说明的名词在概念上不一致。但引导定语从句的引导词却必须保持一致。是比较:
Then arose the question ____ we were to get so much money. (答案为A)
This the house ____ the great man Mao Zedong was born 110 years ago.
A. where B. that C. about which D. in which (答案为A/D)
