    Sometimes,you'd better use pen and paper than open up your mouth to convey just the right emotion. Margaret Shepherd,author of The Art of Civilized Conversation,shares these proper occasions.

    * Condolences (吊唁) At first,everything is a blur (模糊不清) for the bereaved (死者的亲友) so it's comforting to have notes to read later at their own pace. I       For instance, "I know you're going to be busy with family right now,but in a few weeks,Fm going to call you so we can have coffee together."Then do it.

    *  2       An apology is easier to put on paper―you're calmer and you can choose better words and take more care with what you say. Apologize very clearly and don't use weasel words (推诿词) like "I'm sorry if you were upset by me." 3      

    * Praises If you compliment people to their face,they often feel they should be modest,but a written note can be savored (品味) in private. For example, "I really appreciate your patience as I learn to stop drinking."

    氺 4      

    A request to work on a campaign,help out a fundraiser―put them all on paper to avoid putting people on the spot.

    * Thank You Most of us think we're covered if we've verbally thanked someone or sent an email,but if the person put effort into a gathering or a gift,you should put effort into making a thankyou note. I am strongly agreed that people should hand write a thankyou note for a hand cooked dinner rather than call the next day and talk about how fun it was. They just saw you the night before!5      

       A. And remember to use your pen instead of words always.

       B. Finish with something appreciative,such as "Thanks for putting up with me."

       C. Make an Offer

       D. A Request for Help

       E. Give them something to look forward to.

       F. Apologies

       G. And there isn't a person on earth who doesn't appreciate a thankyou note.

    I prefer my English classes to be taught in English only. What we all know,a good learning environment is of greatly importance if we want to study English well. Classes teaching in English provide students for a better environment. When English is an only language in class,students will have more opportunity to practise listening and speaking. However,there were problems to this method. Sometimes we may find difficult to follow the teacher and some slow learners may even give up learn English. In spite of these difficulties,I still believe the practice makes perfect. With enough practice,we can overcome the difficulties and benefit from English classes in the long run.

               C    ★★★★★

        What if software could get a car back on track if the driver changes direction suddenly on ice? Or help a stroke (中风) patient smoothly lift a cup?

        Bioengineers have developed a mathematical program for a robot that can “see” your intention while performing an ordinary action,like driving straight up a road or reaching for a cup — even if the action is interrupted (打断) . 

        “Say you’re reaching for a piece of paper and your hand is in mid-reach — your nerves take time to respond to what has happened,” said Justin Horowitz,first author of the study. So,when something unexpected happens,the signal going to your hand can't change for at least a tenth of a second."

        In the test,Horowitz employed exactly the situations he described. He analyzed(分析) the movement of research subjects as they reached for an object on a desk,but had their hand pushed in the wrong direction. He used the advanced mathematical program to analyze the action and examine the subjects’ intent,even when there was a disturbance.

        The program has extra sensors and deals with information so much faster than people can react. It can predict the way you wanted to move,according to your intention. The car’s artificial intelligence would use it to bring the car’s course more in line with what the driver wanted to do. aIf we hit a patch of ice and the car starts changing direction,we want the car to know where we meant to go ,” he said. “It needs to correct the car's course not to where I am now pointed,but to where I meant to go."

    9. The mathematical program can be used to.

       A. prevent cars from speeding

       B. help the disabled learn to drive 

        C. predict people’s intended acts   

        D. warn drivers of possible dangers

    10. The underlined part “mid-reach” in Paragraph 3 refers to the time when .

       A. the brain sends signals

       B. your body reacts to something

        C. you react to something unexpected   

        D. the brain is stuck in a dangerous situation

    11. What is stressed about the program in the last paragraph?

       A. Its cost.   B. Its future,

        C. Its function.   D. Its structure.

    12. Where can we probably read the text?

       A. In a car review.   B. In a business ad.

        C. In a research plan.   D. In a science report.

    “There is just something so completely magical about Santa Claus,” Coleman said. “And it's not just for the children. Adults light up at the site of Santa just as much as the children do. I think it reminds them of those warm memories of their childhood."
