10.Halloween Coming Out
"A man was shot in the face during a bank robbery."That was the news about me five years ago.From then on I never looked in a (36)A; it even scared myself when seeing my destroyed face.I lived in my house alone without outside contact.But one night I was making an (37)D.It was Halloween.
What a fitting night for me to (38)C!I longed for human contact.When my pumpkin lantern smiled a toothy welcome in my front door,I heard footsteps and giggling(咯咯的笑) as children came close to my house.
"Trick or treat,"they cried.
My hands started to (39)A.I opened the door and gave them a (40)B  smile through my damaged lips beneath a rough scar where my nose once (41)B.
"Do you want a trick,or do you want a treat?"My voice sounded more like a ghost.The (42)C  expression on the children's faces suggested everything.
"Treat!"They (43)D  picked a candy or two from my bucket,and ran to the (44)A  of their parents.
I closed the door,and pressed my back against it.I felt dizzy,but I (45)D  it.Then the bell rang."Trick or treat."a (46)A  voice came to me.I opened the door to find a small girl,wearing a Shirley Temple mask.
"Hi,Shirley."I spoke quietly not to (47)B  her."Aren't you beautiful tonight?"
She stared at her feet and shook her head,"No."
"Yes,you are.You're Shirley Temple,the most beautiful girl in the world."
She looked up at me,and pulled her (48)C to the side.Seeing her deformed(变形的) face,my heart missed a beat.
"Well,I think you are beautiful,darling."I said gently.
At the words,her eyes connected with mine.An uncertain hand reached toward my bucket and took one piece of candy."Thank you."Her voice was a (49)B.She turned and ran to her mother.I nodded my head to her mother and gave them both a (50)B.
I closed my door and turned off my gate lamp.My (51)D  life began again.
The next morning I heard my doorbell ring.I tried to ignore it,(52)C  it rang again.I went to the door and called out,"Who's there?"
"It's Shirley Temple and her Mom."
I opened the door in a few (53)C  and looked.It was the woman and her daughter without her mask.Before I spoke,the mother said,"My girl said she wanted to meet you."I watched tears start to (54)A  in the mother's eyes."This is her first time outside without her mask."
I pulled the door open and that was also the first time in five years for me to invite someone into my(55)D.

15.Everyone needs a break,and vacations are not meant for serious study.(36)FThe Spring Festival is coming up so this is the perfect time to discuss some great English language literature to take on a long train journey.
Before getting into the recommendations,you need to determine your English reading comprehension level.If you're at the beginner level,there are two options:reading a children's book or reading a book that you've read in Chinese translation.(37)GIf you're at the intermediate level,popular books like pop fiction,mysteries and thrillers are good options.For advanced readers,classic works of literature or modern prize winners (Nobel,Pulitzer) are good options.
(38)BWhen I pick up a book I like,even though the first few chapters are really hard to get through,I would try to get accustomed to the language the author uses.Generally,after the first few chapters,things get a lot easier,especially if I get involved in the story.
Another great way to keep yourself motivated is to find a friend who's interested in reading the same book.You can make goals that you both want to achieve.(39)E  Some quick recommendations:Harry Potter,start with the first book and go on from there; the Narnia series; anything by US writer Michael Crichton; and if you like horror,US writer Stephen King is always unusual and fun.(40)DHappy reading!

A.If you pick a book which is so challenging,it will be too stressful.
B.The most important thing is to pick a book that you're really interested in.
C.You may also enjoy your reading when hanging out with your family.

2.An Australian man who has been donating his extremely rare kind of blood for 56years has saved the lives of more than two million babies.
James Harrison has an antibody in his plasma that stops babies dying from Rhesus disease,a form of severe anaemia.He has enabled countless mothers to give birth to healthy babies,including his own daughter,Tracey,who had a healthy son thanks to her father's blood.
Mr.Harrison has been giving blood every few weeks since he was 18years old and has now racked up a total of 984donations.When he started donating,his blood was deemed so special that his life was insured for one million Australian dollars.
He was also nicknamed the"man with the golden arm"or the"man in  two million".He said:"I've never thought about stopping.Never."He made a pledge to be a donor aged 14after undergoing major chest surgery in which he needed 13litres of blood."I was in hospital for three months,"he said."The blood I received saved my life so I made a pledge to give blood when I was 18."

His blood has since led to the development of a vaccine called Anti-D.After his blood type was discovered,Mr.Harrison volunteered to undergo a series of tests to help develop the Anti-D vaccine."They insured me for a million dollars so I knew my wife Barbara would be taken care of,"he said."I wasn't scared.I was glad to help.I had to sign every form going and basically sign my life away."
Mr.Harrison is Rh-negative and was given injections of Rh-positive blood.It was found his plasma could treat the condition and since then it has been given to hundreds of thousands of women.It has also been given to babies after they are born to stop them developing the disease.
It is estimated he has helped save 2.2million babies so far.Mr.Harrison is still donating every few weeks now.

C.a vaccine called Anti-D is to be developed
D.someone else's blood saved his life

19.Are you working on your typing skills to make you become a more efficient worker?That may be all for nothing as Intel believes that we will be able to manage our computers with our brains by 2020.
Intel and its research partners are studying how the brain acts when it thinks.For example,scientists have found that people's brains react in a similar way when they are asked to think of a bear.Through some equipment that can also find this sort of brain activity,Intel thinks that it will be able to read and translate this into an input system tanks to an implantable chip in the brain.
"We are trying to prove you can do interesting things with brain waves."Intel research scientist Dean Pomerleau told Computerworld."Eventually people may be willing to be more devoted to brain implants."Even if thinking about a bear isn't enough to show that you want to copy something,Intel still thinks that there is a future in suing your brain instead of the keyboard."If we can get to the point where we can find specific words,you could mentally type,"he added."You could compose characters or words by thinking about letters flashing on the screen."
While this may all sound impractical or even inconvenient for present time,Intel thinks that it's possible.
"I think human beings are very adaptive,"said Andrew Chien,vice president of research and director of future technologies research at the Intel Labs."If you had told people 20years ago that they would be carrying computers all the time,they would have said,‘I don't want that.'Now you can't get them to stop.There are a lot of things that have to be done first but I think implanting chips into human brains is possible."
Make good use of your mouse and keyboard set-up before they're old-fashioned.

64.What can be known about Intel from the passage?D
A.it is researching how our brains manage our computers.
B.it is working on how to improve people's typing skills.
C.It is finding how the brain reacts when it thinks of a bear.
D.It is studying the relation between what the brain thinks and how it acts.
65.From what Dean Pomerleau said,we can learn thatC.
A.brain implants are not accepted now
B.people have no interest in the research
C.mentally typing will probably be a real fact
D.new things need a long time to be accepted
66.What Andrew Chien said can prove thatD.
A.everything is possible in the world
B.man has great power to face difficulties
C.society is changing from time to time
D.man is very good at accepting new things
67.What does the last paragraph implay?B
A.Everything should be used to the full.
B.Mouses and keyboards won't exist in the future.
C.Our brains can take the place of computers.
D.Some new kinds of mouse and keyboard will appear.
