65.What would be the

rises. Yet pleasure at your own can disappear if you learn that a fellow worker
has been given a bigger one. Indeed, if he is known as being lazy, you might
even be quite cross. Such behavior is regarded as “all too human”, with the
underlying belief that other animals would not be able to have this finely
developed sense of sadness. But a study by Sarah Brosnan
of Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, which has just been published in Nature,
suggests that it is all too monkey, as well. The researchers studied the behaviors of some kind of
female brown monkeys. They look smart. They are good-natured, co-operative
creatures, and they share their food happily. Above all, like female human
beings, they tend to pay much closer attention to the value of “goods and
services” than males. Such characteristics make them perfect subjects for Doctor Brosnan’s study. The researchers spent two years teaching
their monkeys to exchange tokens(奖券)-some rocks, for food. Normally, the monkeys were happy
enough to exchange pieces of rock for pieces of cucumber. However, when two
monkeys were placed in separate and connected rooms, so that each other could
observe what the other is getting in return for its rock, they became quite
different. In the world of monkeys, grapes are excellent goods (and
much preferable to cucumbers). So when one monkey was handed a grape in
exchange for her token, the second was not willing to hand hers over for a mere
piece of cucumber. And if one received a grape without having to provide her
token in exchange at all, the other either shook her own token at the
researcher, or refused to accept the cucumber. Indeed, the mere presence of a
grape in the other room (without an actual monkey to eat it) was enough to
bring about dissatisfaction in a female monkey. The researches suggest that these monkeys, like humans, are
guided by social senses. In the wild, they are co-operative and group-living.
Such co-operation is likely to be firm only when each animal feels it is not
being cheated. Feelings of anger when unfairly treated, it seems, are not the
nature of human beings alone. Refusing a smaller reward completely makes these
feelings clear to other animals of the group. However, whether such a sense of
fairness developed independently in monkeys and humans, or whether it comes
from the common roots that they had 35 million years ago, is, as yet, an
unanswered question.

the year of 1914 a young
girl named Monica Baldwin entered a convent(女修道院),remaining there until 1941 when she returned to
the outer world. During these twenty-eight years wars and revolutions had come
and gone in Europe. Her uncle, Stanley
Baldwin, had led his country for some time. Technical developments had changed
the conditions of everyday life almost beyond recognitions, but all these
events had left as a matter of fact untouched the small religious community to
which she had belonged. In 1949 Miss Baldwin published her impressions of those
bewildering(令人困惑的)years of her return to a world in which the motorcar had
replaced the horse and carriage and where respectable women showed their legs
and painted their faces. Yet it was not only these odd
sights that surprised her, for she was more puzzled by what she heard. During a
railway journey the term “luggage in advance” meant nothing to her, so in
desperation she asked the porter to do as he thought best. Reading the
newspapers made her feel very stupid, because the writers of reviews and
leading articles used words and phrases such as Jazz, Hollywood, Cocktail and Isolationism. These
and many others were quite incomprehensible to Miss Baldwin, who was really
bewildered when friends said: “It’s your funeral or Believe it or not.” This is
a rare and valuable reminder to the rest of us that the English language does
not stand still. All language changes over a period of time for reasons which
are imperfectly understood. Or rather since speech is really a form of human
activity, it is more exact to say that each successive generation behaves
linguistically in a slightly different manner from its predecessors(前辈,祖先). In his teens
the young man likes to show how up-to-date he is by the use of the latest slang(俚语), but as the years
go by some of his slang becomes standard usage and in any case he slowly grows
less receptive(乐于接受的)to linguistic novelties(新颖,新奇),so that by the time he reaches his forties he
will probably be unware that some of the expressions
and pronunciations now being used were frowned upon by his own parents. In this
respect language is a little like fashions in people’s dress. The informal
clothes of one generation become the everyday wear of the next, and just as
young doctors and bank clerks nowadays go about their business in sports
jackets, they are allowed into their normal vocabulary expressions which were
once limited to slang and familiar conversation.

80.即使你内心像树叶一样摇摆不定,那么如果你表面上显得很自信,你仍然会给人留下永 久的印象。 第二节:写作 One possible version: Building a Good Teacher-student Relationship A good teacher-
student relationship is one of the guarantees for successful teaching and
learning. A good relationship leads to fruitful cooperation, that is, the
teacher can guide his/her students more effectively and the students can learn
more efficiently. From my personal
experience I conclude that an ideal teacher- student relationship depends on
the common efforts. For example, we have developed a warm, friendly
relationship with our English teacher. We admire her for the special efforts
she poured into our class. Her lectures are always well prepared and delivered
clearly. We also admire the fact that she spends time generously with us
students after class. Inspired by her devotion, we study all the more
diligently. Of course,
misunderstanding may occur once in a while. In this case, I think, both sides
should be kind, patient and frank. By sitting down and having a good talk we
can work out any trouble. 附:听力录音原文: (Text 1) W:John, is Mark coming for coffee

Say, how about copying them over in the library? M:Okay. You’re a lifesaver, Holly! W:No problem. But I don’t
understand why you need my notes, Johnson; you haven’t missed any classes. M:Weekday mornings, I’m a cashier
at a coffee shop downtown. After work, I come directly to school! W:Wow, you’re probably tired out! M:That’s exactly why I want to
borrow your notes. I’ve been sleeping during class, so my notes aren’t very
good. W:Well, here’s Professor Labelle.

Is there anything important in it? W:Very important! My check book,
all the papers I need for work. M:Oh, that’s terrible. But how did
you lose it? W:Well, as you know, I was with a
friend all morning and we had lunch together. After I had lunch, I
went shopping. And when I wanted to buy the shoes, I couldn’t find my check
book. Then I
remembered that it was in my handbag. And my handbag was in my car. M:So you went back to your car? W:But I didn’t find it there. M:And you went to the police
station? W:Not immediately. Before I went to
the police station, I called my friend’s office. No luck. M:You should go to the restaurant
where you had lunch and look for it. W:Oh, I should have done that. M:Now you’d better telephone the
manager right away. (Text 8) M:May I ask you some questions? W:Yes, of course, Sir. M:Where had you been earlier in the
evening, madam? W:I had been to a restaurant in
Rolando with some friends. M:What time did you
leave the restaurant? W:It was about 10:30, I suppose. My
friends took the MTR and I began walking to the bus stop. I’d just
reached the corner of Queen’s Road Central when someone tapped me on my right shoulder. M:Someone tapped you on the
shoulder?

W:Yes. A young girl. There were two
of them. They were about 18. One of them asked me the way to the
nearest MTR station. I pointed it out to her. M:What
did the other girl do? W:The
other girl moved quietly behind me. Then they both thanked me and started walking
towards the
MTR station. I carried on walking, but I suddenly realised that my bag was
gone. M:What
did you do when you realised your bag was missing? W:I
turned round and saw the two girls running into the MTR station. One of them
was carrying my bag. (Text 9) W:Did you see the late night film

W:No, on Channel 5. It was about a
couple who hitchhiked across the Sahara
Desert. M:No, I didn’t. Was it any good? W:Well, it was quite good, I
suppose, but all those miles of sand did get a bit boring after a while. I think I
prefer horror films to travel stories and love stories. M:I went out for a meal with my
friends. They took me to a Greek restaurant. W:Sounds unusual! What was the food
like? M:Actually, I quite liked it. W:I’m not keen on foreign food
myself. I’d rather stick to roast beef or just fish and chips. M:Yes, I notice you always eat
chips! Don’t you ever get sick of chips? W:No, never. In fact, I’d rather
eat chips than bread. M:Well, I prefer trying new food to
eating the same old things day after day. (Text 10) Here is the 6 o’clock
news. Police
arrested a 27-year-old man in Hamilton
this morning in connection with the National Bank robbery last Friday. The man
was stopped by police after a car salesman told them that a man with a large
quantity of cash was trying to buy a car. The National bank was robbed last
Friday when an armed man entered and made off with about ten thousand dollars
in cash. Scientists
in Adelaide
last week tested a new electric car that they say can reach speeds of up to 100
kilometers an hour. The car is driven by two rechargeable batteries that last
for about 500 kilometers. Scientists at the State Automotive Research Institute
in Adelaide
believe that this is the most economical electric car so far invented. Bad weather
closed the Desert Road
for five hours yesterday. Many people were trapped in their cars in freezing
conditions. Heavy snow continues to fall, and the High-ways department advises
motorists to use chains if traveling on the Desert Road. That brings
us to the weather forecast, for tonight and tomorrow. A belt of bad weather
