16、o that they would be the ones worrying when things went wrong.

23、ed across Bangkok around midnight. Three Thai citizens were killed and more than 30 injured. Among the injured, six were foreigners.

24、 to Bangkok. “There is a possibility of further attacks in coming days,“ said a travel advisory (公告) from Australia. “Australians are urged to avoid unnecessary travel in Bangkok.“ No terrorist group claimed responsibility for the bombings by Tuesday. 17 Bombings and shootings occur almost daily in
25、Thailand“s three southernmost provinces.

28、bsite. ASome believe the explosions were the work of separatists. BSome believe that several senior army officers loyal to Thaksin plotted the bombings with ousted (赶下台) politicians to discredit (败坏名声) the government.

29、as been unable to control the violence, though thousands of troops have been sent to the south. EThe embassy issued no travel warnings.

30、ould speed up your brain. At least one out of every five elementary school students in the US has trouble learning to read, even when the students are good at other subjects. 21 Researchers from Yale University, US, studied a group of children from New York and Connecticut StateAs part of the study,
31、 37 struggling readers received special tutoring. Every day, instructors worked with them on recognizing how written letters represent units of sound called phonemes (音素). 22 By the end of the school year, these children could read faster than before. They also made fewer mistakes, and understood mo
32、re of what they read than they could earlier in the year. As part of their study, the researchers used a special machine to take action photos of the students“ brains. 23 This is the same part of the brain that becomes active when good readers read. This activated brain area appears to include a str
33、ucture that helps people recognize familiar written words quickly. In lower level readers, this structure remains inactive. A year later, the brain structure was still working hard in the students who had gone through the special tutoring, and they continued to do well in reading tests. 24 However,
34、some researchers still doubt the study. 25 AMany adults are interested in matching sounds with letters. BThe students also practiced reading aloud and spelling. CThe biggest challenge for many of these kids, scientists say, is matching sounds with letters. DAnother group in the study who went throug
35、h a more traditional reading program didn“t show the same progress. EThe pictures showed all increase in activity in the back of the brain on the left side.

37、 what they want. If the shop has it in stock, the deal can be and often is completed in less than five minutes, with hardly any chat and to everyone“s 3 . For a man, slight problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants. In that 4 the salesman tries to sell the customer something elseh
38、e offers the nearest to the article required. Good salesman brings out such a substitute with 5 : “I know this jacket is not the style you want, sir, but would you like to try it for size.

39、he right colour and may be the right size, but I should be 8 my time and yours by trying it on.“ For a woman, buying clothes is always done in the 9 way. Her shopping is not often 10 on need. She has never fully decided what she wants, and she is only “having a look round“. She is always open to per
40、suasion, willing to try 11 any number of things. Uppermost in her mind is the thought of finding something that 12 thinks suits her.
