    People tend to become more personal and hide less of themselves when using email. Some Britain researchers have found in a recent study that there are good reasons for this.

    The team of researchers asked 83 pairs of students, all strangers to each other, to solve a problem. They had to discuss this question: ___1.___ The pairs of students had to talk over the problem either face to face or by computers. Dr. Johnson said, “They told their partners four times as much about themselves when they talked over the Internet as when they talked face to face. When the computers were fitted with cameras so that students could see each other, this limited the personal side of the conversation.”

    ___2.__ It was mainly about things such as where they went to school, or where they used to live. But some students discussed their love stories, and personal childhood experiences. Dr. Johnson believes that emailing encourages people to focus on themselves. _3._ “If you cannot see other person, it becomes easier to talk about yourself. This is because you are not thinking what the other person is thinking of you. So emailing has become the modern way of talking,” said Dr. Johnson. ___4.___ “In the 19th century people started to use the „telegraph' to communicate. Now the same kind of thing has happened and people ended up speaking more freely.” Dr. Johnson thinks that emailers need to know about these effects of emailing, especially when they start work in a company, “___5._”

    A. Love stories are a popular choice.

    B. However, this style of talking is not entirely new.

    C. Generally, the information was not extremely personal.

    D. The more personal information you give, the more friends you can make.

    E. And when they do this, they become more open, especially if there are no cameras.

    F. If only five people in the world could be saved from a world disaster, who should they be?

    G. If you didn’t know about it, you could find yourself saying more about yourself than you wanted to.

    In New York, Ma witnessed the Alibaba Group opening on the New York stock exchange with the largest initial public offering (IPO，新股发行) in American history. “Alibaba, the world’s largest Internet commerce company makes China equal to the US in the rapidly increasing global competition for technological innovation (创新) and economic transformation ” commented the South China Morning Post.

    Ma told Time magazine that he was “old for the Internet”. He started to slow down and looked around. According to The Wall Street Journal, Ma “plans to open a tai chi club with the actor Jet Li, build an entrepreneur (企业家) university in Hangzhou and continue to work on several environmental projects.”

    At thirteen, I was diagnosed（诊所） with kind of attention disorder. It made school difficult for me. When everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks, I could not.

    In my first literature class, Mrs.Smith asked us to read a story and then write on it, all within 45 minutes. I raised my hand right away and said,”Mrs.Smith, you see, the doctor said I have attention problems. I might not be able to do it.”

    She glanced down at me through her glasses, “you are no different from your classmates, young man.”

    I tried, but I didn’t finish the reading when the bell rang. I had to take it home.

    In the quietness of my bedroom, the story suddenly all became clear to me. It was about a blind person, Louis Braille. He lived in a time when the blind couldn’t get much education. But Louis didn’t give up. Instead, he invented a reading system of raised dots（点）, which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind.

    Wasn’t I the “blind” in my class, being made to learn like the “sighted” students? My thoughts spilled out and my pen started to dance. I completed the task within 40 minutes. Indeed, I was no different from others; I just needed a quieter place. If Louis could find his way out of his problems, why should I ever give up?

    I didn’t expect anything when I handled in my paper to Mrs.Smith, so it was quite a surprise when it came back to me the next day- with an ”A” on it. At the bottom of the paper were these words:”See what you can do when you keep trying?”

    1.The author didn’t finish the reading in class because.

    A. He was new to the class

    B. He was tried of literature

    C. He had an attention disorder

    D. He wanted to take the task home

    2.What do we know about Louis Braille from the passage?

    A. He had good sight

    B. He made a great invention.

    C. He gave up reading

    D. He learned a lot from school

    3.What was Mrs.Smith’s attitude to the author at the end of the story?

    A. Angry B. Impatient

    C. Sympathetic D. Encouraging

    4.What is the main idea of the passage?

    A. The disabled should be treated with respect.

    B.A teacher can open up a new world to students.

    C. One can find his way out of difficulties with efforts.

    D. Everyone needs a hand when faced with challenges.

    Scientists at Harvard University have recycled a kidney(‘肾)-in a rat. The researchers removed a kidney from a dead rat. Later, the renewed kidney was put into a living rat. It wasn't perfect. It did, however, show signs of working like a kidney should.

    "It's really beautiful work," Edward Ross, a kidney researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville, told Science News. He didn't work on the new study.

    Kidneys are bean-shaped and act like guards in the body. They clean the blood by removing waste and extra water. Every day, an adult's kidneys filter(过滤) enough blood to fill a bathtub half full. Along the way, they produce eight cups of urine(尿) from that waste and water. When a person's kidneys fail, all of that waste stays in the body. Such patients can quickly become very sick and die, unless they are regularly connected to a machine that filters their blood.

    At any given time, about 100,000 people in the United States are waiting for a replacement kidney. But healthy donated kidneys are difficult to get. Either a living person must donate one, or a kidney must be removed from someone who just died and earlier had agreed to the donation. In either case, people receiving new kidneys face the risk that their bodies will reject the donated ones.

    But there may be another option. Researchers use knowledge of living things to grow or improve tissue that can aid human health. Harald Ott's team at Harvard started with a "used" kidney.

    Scientists added kidney cells from rats and blood vessel cells from people to the matrix（母体）. These cells attached themselves and began to multiply. Before long, they formed new kidney tissue.

    The scientists placed this renewed kidney into another rat. There it produced a small amount of urine. This experiment shows that the lab-grown kidney can do at least some of the work performed by a healthy kidney.

    The results are a promising first step toward helping people with serious kidney problems. "This is still very early, but they've come a long way," Ross said.

    1.What can we infer from Paragraph l?

    A. Biology is a new and helpful science.

    B. It's hard to put the rebuilt kidney into the rat.

    C. Kidneys are very important to our life.

    D. A used kidney may be recycled for new life.

    2.What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?

    A. The relationship between kidneys and health.

    B. The difficulty of curing serious kidney diseases.

    C. The function and importance of kidneys.

    D. The methods of curing kidneys diseases.

    3.For what purpose does the author use the figure 100,000 in Paragraph 4?

    A. To stress used kidneys are hard to get.

    B. To show the great need for healthy kidneys.

    C. To explain many American people get kidney diseases.

    D. To call on people to donate kidneys.

    4.Which of the following is true according to the text?

    A. The scientists are satisfied with the result of the experiment.

    B. Ross is a kidney expert who is involved in the experiment.

    C. The function of the renewed kidney is the same as a healthy kidney.

    D. The renewed kidney produced a great deal of urine.

    A four-year-old girl sees three biscuits divided between a stuffed crocodile and a teddy bear．The crocodile gets two; the bear one．“Is that fair?” asks the experimenter．The girl judges that it is not．“How about now?” asks the experimenter, breaking the bear’s single biscuit in half．The girl cheers up: “Oh yes, now it’s fair．They both have two．” Strangely, children feel very strongly about fairness, even when they hardly understand it．

    Adults care about fairness too --- but how much? One way to find out is by using the ultimatum (最后通牒) game, created by economist Werner Guth．Jack is given a pile of money and proposes how it should be divided with Jill．Jill can accept Jack’s “ultimatum”, otherwise the deal is off, and neither gets anything．

    Suppose Jack and Jill don’t care about fairness, just about accumulating cash．Then Jack can offer Jill as little as he likes and Jill will still accept．After all, a little money is more than no money．But imagine, instead, that Jack and Jill both care only about fairness and that the fairest outcome is equality．Then Jack would offer Jill half the money; and Jill wouldn’t accept otherwise．

    What happens when we ask people to play this game for real? It turns out that people value fairness a lot．Anyone offered less than 20-30% of the money is likely to reject it．Receiving an unfair offers makes us feel sick．Happily, most offers are pretty equitable; indeed, by far the most common is a 50-50 split．

    But children, and adults, also care about a very different sort of (un)fairness, namely cheating．Think how many games of snakes and ladders have ended in arguments when one child “accidentally” miscounts her moves and another child objects．But this sense of fairness isn’t about equality of outcome: games inevitably have winners and losers．Here, fairness is about playing by the rules．

    Both fairness-as-equality and fairness-as-no-cheating matter．Which is more important: equality or no-cheating? I think the answer is neither．The national lottery(彩票), like other lotteries, certainly doesn’t make the world more equal: a few people get rich and most people get nothing．Nevertheless, we hope, it is fair --- but what does this mean? The fairness-as-no-cheating viewpoint has a ready answer: a lottery is fair if it is conducted according to the “rules”．But which rules? None of us has the slightest idea, I suspect．Suppose that buried in the small print at lottery HQ is a rule that forbids people with a particular surname (let’s say, Moriarty)．So a Ms Moriarty could buy a ticket each week for years without any chance of success．

    How would she react if she found out? Surely with anger: how dare the organisers let her play, week after week, without mentioning that she couldn’t possibly win! She’d reasonably feel unfairly treated because ___________________．

    To protest(抗议) against unfairness, then, is to make an accusation of bad faith．From this viewpoint, an equal split between the crocodile and the bear seems fair because (normally, at least), it is the only split they would both agree to．But were the girl to learn that the crocodile doesn’t like biscuits or that the bear isn’t hungry, I suspect she’d think it perfectly fair for one toy to take the whole．Inequality of biscuits (or anything else) isn’t necessarily unfair, if both parties are happy．And the unfairness of cheating comes from the same source: we’d never accept that someone else can unilaterally(单方面地) violate agreements that we have all signed up to．

    So perhaps the four-year-old’s intuitions(直觉) about fairness is the beginnings of an understanding of negotiation．With a sense of fairness, people will have to make us acceptable offers (or we’ll reject their ultimatums) and stick by the (reasonable) rules, or we’ll be on the warpath．So a sense of fairness is crucial to effective negotiation; and negotiation, over toys, treats etc, is part of life．

    1.It can be inferred that in the ultimatum game, _____．

    A． Jack keeps back all the money

    B． Jill can negotiate fair division with Jack

    C． Jack has the final say in the division of money

    D． Jill has no choice but to accept any amount of money

    2.From Paragraph 2 to 4, we can conclude _____．

    A． people will sacrifice money to avoid unfairness

    B． fairness means as much to adults as to children

    C． something is better than nothing after all

    D． a 30-70 split is acceptable to the majority

    3.Which of the following does fairness-as-no-cheating apply to?

    A． divisions of housework

    B． favoritism between children

    C． banned drugs in sport

    D． schooling opportunities

    4.Which of the following best fits in the blank in Paragraph 7?

    A． the lottery didn’t follow the rules

    B． she was cheated out of the money

    C． the lottery wasn’t equal at all

    D． she would never have agreed to those rules

    5.The chief factor in preventing unfairness is to _____．

    A． observe agreements

    B． establish rules

    C． strengthen morality

    D． understand negotiation

    6.The main purpose of the passage is to ______

    A． declare the importance of fairness

    B． suggest how to achieve fairness

    C． present different attitudes to fairness

    D． explain why we love fairness
