What would you choose, if you were sitting in front of a TV and there was a book right next to you? The answer will most p 1 be the TV! Young people would certainly choose the TV, but you will be surprised to find out that the older o 2 will at least hesitate about choosing it. Why is this? Are the books not as interesting as they used to be? Is it that the world has changed so much in recent years that our habits are not the same anymore?
Nowadays many people have no interest in literature(文学). This may be a possible explanation. Another r 3 might be the change of lifestyle (生活方式). We are more 1 4 to visit a club or a bar to relax ourselves after a long day's work, rather than read a book in the comfort of our own homes. People are more outgoing than they used to be. All the stress(压力)of work makes us want a quick relaxing means. Perhaps, most of us do not have the patience to read anymore. It is much s 5 to turn on the TV and watch the latest news around the world than read 19th century literature!
With all the TV programs, every one of us can find an interesting show or movie to watch. What's
better than getting into b 6 with the remote control(遥控器) and falling asleep whenever you
wish? You are the master of all the TV programs. The only disadvantage is that TV will never p 7
you with all the facts that a book can do. TV is much more superficial (肤浅的)than books, even if it does get you relaxed in just a moment!

What are the most popular shoes in the world? Sneakers, of course! Almost everybody o 1 at least one pair of sneaker. But, how many people know the history of the sneaker?
Sneakers were first introduced around the b 2 of the 20th century. The sneaker was invented when a shoe company glued a piece of rubber to the shoetop. They called it an athletic(运动的)shoe.
In 1917, U.S.Rubber sold athletic shoes called Keds. The shoes became known as“sneakers,”
because they were so q 3 that you could sneak up on (偷偷接近) people while wearing them.
For many years, sneakers only came in one c 4 choice-and it wasn’t white. They were brown with black bottoms.
The way sneakers looked changed in the early 1960s. A runner named Phil Knight and his
coach, Bill Bowerman, decided to make them b 5 . They made some experiments to find a light, comfortable athletic shoe, and went into the sneaker business.
One day, Bowerman stuck a piece of rubber into a waffle maker (华夫饼制造器)．W 6 he heated it up, the iron made a pattern of criss-crosses(十字图案)in the rubber. Bowerman was inspired to use this on the sole(鞋底) of a shoe to give the shoe traction(摩擦力)and a lighter weight. He knew that this rubber wouldn't slip on the gym floor.
The two men named their shoes Nike, after a Greek goddess. Nike was a symbol of victory. From then o 7 , Nike shoes became winners, too. They were sold in many different colors and styles and have sold millions and millions all around the world.

I came into a village and I saw a policeman standing outside the post office and reading something carefully. He looked up at the car, w___1__ into the road, and held up a hand to stop me.
I a__2___ stopped, but then I realized that the policeman had been reading about me. I supposed the police at the hotel had worked quickly, and called all the local villages. I drove faster, the policeman jumped out of my way, and I was soon out of the village.
I left the main road as soon as possible and tried a smaller one. It was not easy without a map, and I realized that I had been so s___3___ to steal the car. It would help the police to find me in any corner of Scotland. If I left it, and went off on foot, they would find me in an hour or two.
I was very hungry; I had eaten n__4__ since morning. And now, as I drove, I heard a noise in the sky, and there was a plane. I drove as fast as I could down into another town. Suddenly, a car appeared in front of me from a s__5___road. There was no time to stop. I did the only thing possible and drove off the road into a fence, hoping to hit something soft beyond. But I was out of good l___6__. The car went through the fence like a knife through butter, and immediately began to fall. I jumped out and was caught by the branch of a tree, while the car disappeared into a river fifteen meters below.
A hand helped me out of the tree, and a frightened voice asked me if I was badly hurt. The speaker was a young man who was very sorry. I was more p__7___ than angry; it was a good way for the car to disappear.

As we know, museums are buildings where many valuable and important objects are kept so that people can go and see them. For example, art museums are places where people can learn about d__1___ kinds of cultures. More and more popular "design museums" that are opening today, however, perform quite a different role. Unlike most museums, the design museum shows objects that are e__2___found in bur daily life, such as fridges and washing machines.
The advantage of design museums is mat they are places where people feel f 3 with the exhibits. Being different from the art museum visitors, design museum visitors s 4 feel frightened or puzzled. This is partly because design museums clearly show how and why mass-products(批量产品) work and look as they do, and how design has i 5 the quality of our lives. Art museum exhibits, on the other hand, would most probably fill visitors with a feeling that there is something beyond their understanding
Several new design museums have opened their doors in recent years. Each of these museums has tried to satisfy the public's growing i 6 in the field with new ideas. London's Design Museum, for example, shows a collection of mass-produced objects from electric typewriters to a group of Italian fish-tins. The choices open to design museum seem m 7 less strict than those to art museum, and visitors may also sense(感觉到) the humorous part of our society while walking around such exhibits as interesting and unusually attractive joys collected from our everyday life.

A television news story has led to the reunion twin sisters who were separated at birth 28 years ago. Nina Rosario and Alicia Torres were born in 1980 in Mendoza, Argentina(阿根廷). Their mother, an unmarried 21-year-old, was unable to take care of the twins and l___86___ them at an orphanage(孤儿院).

While Nina was doing some housework last week, something on a local news programme caught her eye. It was Alicia being interviewed by a reporter. “I couldn’t believe it. It was like looking at a mirror.” Nina couldn’t wait any longer. She contacted(联系)the TV station i___88__, and asked the reporter about the mystery woman. “I found out that the woman was Alicia Torres, an artist from Buenos Aires.

Each Indian tribe (部落) had a different language. Many Indians never learned any language
e__1__ their own. Do you know how Indians from different tribes talked to each? They had two
ways to talk without sound. One way was by sign language; the other was by signals.
Sign language is a way talking by signs. Indians used it when they met strangers. In this way,
they could find out w__2__ the stranger was a friend or an enemy.
Indians usually used signals when they wanted to send messages to someone far away. To make
signals, an Indian might use a pony (小马). He might use a blanket. Or he might use smoke, a mirror or fire arrows (箭) .
To signal that he had seen many animals, an Indian r__3__ his pony in a large circle. Sometimes the Indian gave a signal like this and then went away to hide. This meant that there was danger.
The blanket signal was visible from far away. An Indian held two c__4__ of a blanket in his hands. Then he began to swing (摇动) the blanket from side to side in front of him. An Indian could send many different signals with his blanket.
He could also send many signals with a mirror to w__5__ someone or to get the attention of a person far away. But he also used it to send messages in code. Of course, mirrors could be used o__6__ when the sun was shining. At night, Indians used fire arrows for signaling.
An Indian also sent signals with smoke. He made a small fire of dry wood. Then he put grass or green branches on it. He held a blanket over the fire for a minute. When he r__7__ the blanket from the fire, there was a cloud of smoke. The number of clouds of smoke told his message in code.
Now you can see that Indians didn't need to learn each other's language. They could talk to one another by using signals or sign language.

Anyone who has a dog as a pet will tell you why the dog is called 'man's best friend'. "They are loyal, funny and loving. They seldom complain and always o 1 their owners," said Mary Smith of Washington D.C.
Doctors will also tell you that people who have dogs seem to be happier and healthier than those who live a 2 . One reason for this is that people with dogs lead more active lives. Who can say no to a lovely dog when he pulls on your arm and asks yon to take him for a walk?
Dogs are really amazing animals. They not only offer emotional (情感的) support but also p 3 great help for humans. Think about guide dogs for blind people, or dogs that help people in wheelchairs.
However, it is the emotional side of owning a dog that has been studied in detail by Dr Julie Davis of Chicago University. "B 4 every dog lover there is a story," says Dr. Davis. "Why do people love their dogs so much? if you hear their stories, it's not difficult to understand why. "
Dr. Davis has studied the r 5 between dogs and people for the last ten years. "I have spoken to people in parks, pet stores, and veterinary (兽医的) offices, as well as stopping people in the street. I have interviewed office workers and farmers, policemen and construction workers," says Dr Davis. "E 6 wants to talk about their dogs. Many people said they cried much more when their dogs died than when their parents did. They said the sadness was much d 7 . People are finding animals are more reliable than human beings. People tell me all the time that they get more emotional support from their dogs than they do from their husbands or wives."

I didn't cry when I learned I was the parent of a disabled (残疾的) child.
"Go ahead and cry," the doctor advised kindly, but I couldn't cry then, nor during the days that followed.
When Jenny was old enough, I sent her to a kindergarten. On the first morning, Jenny spent hours playing by herself. It seemed that she felt very l 1 .
However, to my joy, Jenny's classmates always encouraged her, "You got all your spelling words right today!" In fact her spelling list was the e 2 . Later, she faced a very painful problem—at the end of the term, there was a game which had something to do with physical education. But Jenny was way behind in it.
My husband and I were anxious (忧虑)about die day. I wanted to keep her home. Why let Jenny fail in a gymnasium filled with parents, students and teachers? What a simple s 3 ! But my heart wouldn't let me off that easily. So I pushed a pale, unwilling Jenny onto the school bus.
At the kindergarten, I was quite worried because of her s 4 action, Jenny would probably hold up (阻碍) her team. The game went on well until it was time for the sack (麻袋) race. Surely Jenny would find it difficult. Now each child had to climb into a sack, jump to the finishing line, return and climb out of the sack. I noticed Jenny standing near the end of her line of players.
But as it was her turn to join, a c 5 took place in her team. The tallest boy behind Jenny placed his hands on her waist (腰). Two other boys stood ahead of her. The moment the player before Jenny stepped out from the sack, those two boys picked up the sack quickly and held it open while the tall boy lifted Jenny and dropped her into it. A girl in front of Jenny took her hand and s 6 her until Jenny gained her balance. Then she jumped forward, smiling and proud.
In the cheers of teachers, schoolmates and parents, I silently thanked Heaven for the warm, understanding people in life who make it p 7 for my disabled daughter to be like her fellow human beings. Then I finally cried.

What would you choose, if you were sitting in front of a TV and there was a book right next to you? The answer will most p 1 be the TV! Young people would certainly choose the TV, but you will be surprised to find out that the older o 2 will at least hesitate about choosing it. Why is this? Are the books not as interesting as they used to be? Is it that the world has changed so much in recent years that our habits are not the same anymore?
Nowadays many people have no interest in literature(文学). This may be a possible explanation. Another r 3 might be the change of lifestyle (生活方式). We are more 1 4 to visit a club or a bar to relax ourselves after a long day's work, rather than read a book in the comfort of our own homes. People are more outgoing than they used to be.

It is much s 5 to turn on the TV and watch the latest news around the world than read 19th century literature!
With all the TV programs, every one of us can find an interesting show or movie to watch. What's
better than getting into b 6 with the remote control(遥控器) and falling asleep whenever you

What are the most popular shoes in the world? Sneakers, of course! Almost everybody o 1 at least one pair of sneaker. But, how many people know the history of the sneaker?
Sneakers were first introduced around the b 2 of the 20th century. The sneaker was invented when a shoe company glued a piece of rubber to the shoetop. They called it an athletic(运动的)shoe.
In 1917, U.S.Rubber sold athletic shoes called Keds. The shoes became known as“sneakers,”
because they were so q 3 that you could sneak up on (偷偷接近) people while wearing them.
For many years, sneakers only came in one c 4 choice-and it wasn’t white. They were brown with black bottoms.
The way sneakers looked changed in the early 1960s. A runner named Phil Knight and his
coach, Bill Bowerman, decided to make them b 5 . They made some experiments to find a light, comfortable athletic shoe, and went into the sneaker business.
One day, Bowerman stuck a piece of rubber into a waffle maker (华夫饼制造器)．W 6 he heated it up, the iron made a pattern of criss-crosses(十字图案)in the rubber. Bowerman was inspired to use this on the sole(鞋底) of a shoe to give the shoe traction(摩擦力)and a lighter weight. He knew that this rubber wouldn't slip on the gym floor.
The two men named their shoes Nike, after a Greek goddess. Nike was a symbol of victory. From then o 7 , Nike shoes became winners, too. They were sold in many different colors and styles and have sold millions and millions all around the world.

As we know, museums are buildings where many valuable and important objects are kept so that people can go and see them. For example, art museums are places where people can learn about d__1___ kinds of cultures. More and more popular "design museums" that are opening today, however, perform quite a different role. Unlike most museums, the design museum shows objects that are e__2___found in bur daily life, such as fridges and washing machines.
The advantage of design museums is mat they are places where people feel f 3 with the exhibits. Being different from the art museum visitors, design museum visitors s 4 feel frightened or puzzled. This is partly because design museums clearly show how and why mass-products(批量产品) work and look as they do, and how design has i 5 the quality of our lives. Art museum exhibits, on the other hand, would most probably fill visitors with a feeling that there is something beyond their understanding
Several new design museums have opened their doors in recent years. Each of these museums has tried to satisfy the public's growing i 6 in the field with new ideas. London's Design Museum, for example, shows a collection of mass-produced objects from electric typewriters to a group of Italian fish-tins. The choices open to design museum seem m 7 less strict than those to art museum, and visitors may also sense(感觉到) the humorous part of our society while walking around such exhibits as interesting and unusually attractive joys collected from our everyday life.

A television news story has led to the reunion twin sisters who were separated at birth 28 years ago. Nina Rosario and Alicia Torres were born in 1980 in Mendoza, Argentina(阿根廷). Their mother, an unmarried 21-year-old, was unable to take care of the twins and l___86___ them at an orphanage(孤儿院).

While Nina was doing some housework last week, something on a local news programme caught her eye. It was Alicia being interviewed by a reporter. “I couldn’t believe it.

Each Indian tribe (部落) had a different language. Many Indians never learned any language
e__1__ their own. Do you know how Indians from different tribes talked to each? They had two
ways to talk without sound. One way was by sign language; the other was by signals.
Sign language is a way talking by signs. Indians used it when they met strangers. In this way,
they could find out w__2__ the stranger was a friend or an enemy.
Indians usually used signals when they wanted to send messages to someone far away. To make
signals, an Indian might use a pony (小马). He might use a blanket. Or he might use smoke, a mirror or fire arrows (箭) .
To signal that he had seen many animals, an Indian r__3__ his pony in a large circle. Sometimes the Indian gave a signal like this and then went away to hide. This meant that there was danger.
The blanket signal was visible from far away. An Indian held two c__4__ of a blanket in his hands. Then he began to swing (摇动) the blanket from side to side in front of him. An Indian could send many different signals with his blanket.
He could also send many signals with a mirror to w__5__ someone or to get the attention of a person far away. But he also used it to send messages in code. Of course, mirrors could be used o__6__ when the sun was shining. At night, Indians used fire arrows for signaling.
An Indian also sent signals with smoke. He made a small fire of dry wood. Then he put grass or green branches on it. He held a blanket over the fire for a minute. When he r__7__ the blanket from the fire, there was a cloud of smoke. The number of clouds of smoke told his message in code.
Now you can see that Indians didn't need to learn each other's language. They could talk to one another by using signals or sign language.

Anyone who has a dog as a pet will tell you why the dog is called 'man's best friend'. "They are loyal, funny and loving. They seldom complain and always o 1 their owners," said Mary Smith of Washington D.C.

I didn't cry when I learned I was the parent of a disabled (残疾的) child.
"Go ahead and cry," the doctor advised kindly, but I couldn't cry then, nor during the days that followed.
When Jenny was old enough, I sent her to a kindergarten. On the first morning, Jenny spent hours playing by herself. It seemed that she felt very l 1 .
However, to my joy, Jenny's classmates always encouraged her, "You got all your spelling words right today!" In fact her spelling list was the e 2 . Later, she faced a very painful problem—at the end of the term, there was a game which had something to do with physical education. But Jenny was way behind in it.
My husband and I were anxious (忧虑)about die day. I wanted to keep her home. Why let Jenny fail in a gymnasium filled with parents, students and teachers? What a simple s 3 ! But my heart wouldn't let me off that easily. So I pushed a pale, unwilling Jenny onto the school bus.
At the kindergarten, I was quite worried because of her s 4 action, Jenny would probably hold up (阻碍) her team. The game went on well until it was time for the sack (麻袋) race. Surely Jenny would find it difficult. Now each child had to climb into a sack, jump to the finishing line, return and climb out of the sack.

But as it was her turn to join, a c 5 took place in her team. The tallest boy behind Jenny placed his hands on her waist (腰). Two other boys stood ahead of her.

A girl in front of Jenny took her hand and s 6 her until Jenny gained her balance. Then she jumped forward, smiling and proud.
In the cheers of teachers, schoolmates and parents, I silently thanked Heaven for the warm, understanding people in life who make it p 7 for my disabled daughter to be like her fellow human beings. Then I finally cried.
