The problem is she did the same in the opposite direction. He and Amy

26、 Dolby even managed to miss each other when they sat in the same airport waiting room in Singapore at the same time to wait for connecting flights. After an 11,000-mile flight across the globe, Dolby was greeted by Johnstones astonished flatmate asking what she was doing there. “It was as though som

27、eone was playing a cruel joke on us,“ she told The Times. “He is the most romantic(浪漫的 )person I have ever known. I think our problem is that we are both quite impulsive(易冲动的 )people. We are always trying to surprise each other. “ Johnstone, a 27-year-old construction worker, had taken a year off to

28、 travel round Australia. But he was missing Dolby, a 26-year-old secretary, so much that he got a job on a Sydney building site and started saving for a surprise. He then flew home to Britain and went to her apartment armed with an engagement(订婚 ) ring and flowers. “I really missed Amy and Id been t

29、hinking about her all the time. I thought she was winding me up when she phoned me from Australia. “ he said.

When I come home from the supermarket and start t

33、o unpack, I am always shocked at the layers of wrappings we cover our food with. There is hardly anything we buy that doesnt come in at least two wrappings, and then several of them are gathered by the shop assistant and put into a small bag. Then several of the small bags are grouped together and p

34、ut into a big bag. If you have several big bags with small bags in them, they give you a cardboard box to put the packages-in-the-little-bags-in-the-big-bags in. A lot of things we buy wouldnt really need any protective wrapping at all. The skin of an orange protects an orange pretty well for most o

35、f its natural life, but we arent satisfied with what nature has given it. We wrap them in plastic or put them in a net bag, and then in a paper bag. The orange inside the skin, inside the plastic which is in the paper bag, must wonder where it is. A box of biscuits often has waxed paper(蜡纸 ) next to

36、 the biscuits, a cardboard box holding the food and then a decorative wrapping around it. A relative of ours bought a new sofa recently because she liked the fine leather (皮革 ) it was covered with.

40、e and the Canadian Psyche(精神 ) “ the 40 seats in the class were quickly taken. ESPN offered to fly him to New York for a TV chat show, and e-mail arrived from hockey fans and researchers from as far away as Texas and China. “They think they can learn something about us as a nation by learning about

41、the game, about Canadian people. Theyre right. “ says Beardsley. Students in Beardsleys class completed three research papers related to hockey. The reading list included famous works like The Divine Ryans by Wayne Johnston, The Good Body by Bill Gas ton and Les Canadiells by Rick Salutin. They are

42、the kind of books that get at the true meaning of being Canadian. In Beardsleys words, hockey shows the very nature of the polite Canadian. “I think that a long with this peace-sharing, gentle image comes a need for mayhem(混乱 ). So we invent the game and whammo! you get on the ice and it serves as a

43、 way of letting out those energies that we dont allow ourselves elsewhere. “ says Beardsley, who added that the reason the game needs to be played in winter is our form of saying, “Look, even up here in the frozen north we can turn this around and make it work for us. “ “Im talking about something l

44、arger than what happens on the ice and so is the course. “ 64 What is the main purpose of the text? （ A） To teach how to play hockey. （ B） To introduce an English teacher. （ C） To introduce a book by Beardsley. （ D） To talk about hockey and the Canadians. 65 We learn from Paragraph 1 that_. （ A） ESP

47、ike to play sports in a gentle way 67 There are three kinds of memory: sense memory, working memory, and long-term memory. Think of them as three connected rooms in which you store different kinds of memories. The first kind of memory is sense memory. Everything you are sensing right now is stored h

48、ere. Perhaps you feel the sun on your face or smell the aroma(香味 ) of food. Sense memories last only a few seconds, but they connect one moment to the next. They give your life a flow, even though they are quickly forgotten. You keep a few items(条目 ) in working memory. These are memories you need fo

49、r what you are doing. Suppose you look up a friends telephone number in the phone book. Youll probably remember the number for a little while. But if you get distracted (分神 ), you might quickly forget it. A memory usually stays in your working memory for just a few days at most. Working memory has another limit, too. Only a small
