14、ver be found out. Thomas Macaulay Some thirty years ago, I was studying in a public school in New York. One day, Mrs. Nanette ONeill gave an arithmetic 【 B1】 to our class.

15、hing really new about 【 B4】 in exams. Perhaps that was why Mrs. ONeill 【 B5】 even say a word about it. She only asked the twelve boys to 【 B6】 after class. I was one of the twelve. Mrs. ONeill asked 【 B7】 questions, and she didnt 【 B8】 us either. Instead, she wrote on the blackboard the 【 B9】 words

A US doctor has planted under his skin

23、 a computer chip that can send personal information to a scanner(扫描仪 ), a technology that may someday be widely used as a way to identify people. The chip gives off information which will be scanned by a hand-held reader. The chip is similar to those planted in more than one million dogs, eats and o

24、ther pets in recent years to track and identify them. The doctor decided to test the chip himself after the Word Trade Center disaster. The dead could have been identified if their names and other important information had been chipped. Officials of the company said they hope to sell the chips to pa

25、tients with man-made arms or legs or other body parts. The idea is that the chip will provide immediate and correct medical information when it is needed.

26、ll up records. The scanner can read it through clothes from over a meter away. The new product also could be used to control prisoners.

31、ept in our car for about a week,“ she said, “but then it was sold.“ As she moved from one friends house to another, Carr began working toward a high-school- equivalence diploma, listening to self-help tapes and making cheesecakes. After developing some new methods which she thought were pretty good,

32、 she offered her cakes to a restaurant. They sold out in a matter of hours. The following year, she met a man at a church service and before long, they married. Carr began selling the cheesecakes out of their home. Later she opened a cheesecake company. As business became better and better, Carr did

33、nt forget where she came from. All the women she hires are mothers or high-school dropouts (退学者 )-workers most other employers wouldnt like to hire. Her dozen workers make 100 to 150 cakes a week and Cart owes her success to her employees. She says, “Were going to have a learning center and a day-ca

34、re center in the company. Part of the workday will be spent studying for high-school-equivalence diplomas.“ Recently, a 33-year-old woman with three children to raise was referred to Cart.

It included a variety of “fun facts“ about the mal

39、l, such as: 140,000 hot dogs am sold each week, there are 10,000 full-time jobs, 44 sets of moving stairs and 17 lifts, 12,750 parking places, 13,000 tons of steel, and I million is drawn weekly from 8 ATMs. Opened in the summer of 1992, the mall was built where the former Minneapolis Stadium had be

40、en. It was only a five-minute drive from Minneapolis to St. Paul International Airport. With 4.2 million square feet of floor space-22 times the size of the average American shopping center-the Mall of America was the largest shopping and family recreation center under one roof in the United States.

41、 I knew already that the Mall of America had been imagined by its designers, not merely as a marketplace, but as a national tourist attraction. Eleven thousand articles, the small book informed me, had been written about the mall. Four hundred trees had been planted in its gardens, 625 million had b

42、een spent to build it, and 350 stores were already in business. Three thousand bus tours were expected each year along with a half-million Canadian visitors and 200,000 Japanese tourists. Sales were expected to be at 650 million for 1993 and at 1 billion for 1996. Pop singers and film stars such as

43、Janet Jackson and Arnold Schwarzenegger had visited the mall. It was five times larger than Red Square and it included 2.3 miles of hallways and used almost twice as much steel as the Eiffel Tower. It was also home to the nations largest indoor park, called Knotts Camp Snoopy. 58 We know from the te

44、xt that the Mall of America is _. （ A） near an old stadium （ B） bigger than most American parks （ C） higher than the Eiffel Tower （ D） close to an airport 59 Why are the pieces of information provided by the Mall of America referred to as “fun facts“? （ A） They are largely imagined. （ B） They are su

47、rica （ D） Canadian visitors would spend 1 billion at the mall 62 Many people are worried about what television has done to the generation of American children who have grown up watching it. For one thing, recent studies show that TV weakens the ability to imagine. Some teachers feel that television

48、has taken away the childs ability to form mental pictures in his own mind, resulting in children who cannot understand a simple story without pictures. Secondly, too much TV too early usually causes children to be removed from real-life experiences. Thus, they grow up to be passive watchers who can

49、only respond to action, but not start doing something actively. The third area for such a worrying situation is the serious dissatisfaction frequently expressed by school teachers that children show a low patience for the pains in learning. Because they have been used to seeing results of all problems in 30 or 60 minutes on TV, they are quickly discouraged by any activity that promis
