Nobodys hands went in the sauce except my own. But that night, as I explained with a touc

19、h of panic that a colander is the thing with holes in it, I wondered what else I hadnt prepared Ray for. I felt confident that Id raised a self-reliant boy, as we all try to do. But could he boil water? Sew on a button? Wash his clothes without turning them pink? No, no and no. Suddenly it hit me: H

20、ed be leaving the house in a year to attend college. No way was I going to set a spoiled prince into the world.As parents, while we focus on our childs confidence and character, we perhaps dont always consider that we are also raising someones future roommate, boyfriend, husband, or father. I wanted

21、 to know that Id raised a boy who would never ask the woman in his life, “Whats for dinner?” So I came up with a plan: I would offer Ray a private home economics course. I was delighted to find that he didnt say no.For two hours, three days a week, Ray was all mine. One day, as his tomato sauce redu

22、ced on the stove, he washed and seasoned a chicken for toasting. Then he rolled out the piecrust（馅饼皮）and filled it with apples, all while listening to my explanation on the importance of preheating an oven.Three of my four grandparents were tailors, so Ray was genetically programmed to quickly maste

23、r the basics, like mending a split seam or refastening a button. One day we covered Advanced Laundry, in which I taught him never to mix a red sweatshirt with white shirts or put sweaters in the dryer. I knew that he would rather have been shooting hoops in the driveway than learning to mend socks w

24、ith his mother - he tried to beg off sewing lessons, even though I insisted that one day, someone would find the sight of him fixing his own shirt very attractive - but it couldnt be denied that he was learning, and more than just housekeeping. “I appreciate more what you do as a mom,” he told me on

28、t for My Future Daughter-in-lawCMany people may have watched the film “March of the Penguins”, which shows a real group of birds in Antarctica. Imagine a group of fat black and white birds walking in a line. Suddenly, one penguin loses his balance and falls on the ice. Every time penguins fall down,

29、 people laugh. The animals are cute!People like the film very much. So much, in fact, that police in England think that it may be the reason behind a crime. A man went to a zoo in London and stole a baby penguin. Authorities think that the man stole the penguin after seeing the film and believe he w

30、anted to give it away as a Christmas gift.Michael Gauthier-Clerc, an expert studying penguins, thinks that many people like penguins but some people do not understand them. He told The New York Times newspaper, “People love the penguins colors, its way of standing straight upright and the way it wal

31、ks.”These things make penguins seem cute to people, but there are good reasons for all of these things. For example, penguins move from side to side when they walk and may seem to be out of balance. But Doctor Gauthier-Clerc says that the penguins waddle to save energy. The penguins colour also has

32、a special purpose. It protects the penguins when they are swimming. From below, larger animals cannot see the penguins white underside because it looks the same as the bright sky or ice. And from above, other animals cannot see the penguins black back against the dark ocean floor.The penguins colors

33、 protect them in nature. But scientists have found that some of these physical details also have an effect on humans. They make animals seem cute to people. Scientists believe that humans are very sensitive to things that are cute, such as human baby and even objects that may look like parts of a ba

34、by.Recent studies show that cute images affect the brain in a special way. A study done at the University of Michigan tested young peoples reactions to images. It found that young people believed a message more if the message was joined by a cute picture. The researchers showed the young people two

35、messages. One was a simple anti-smoking message. The other showed a cute animal telling 6them that smoking was bad. The conclusion turned out that the young people trusted the cute message more than the simple message.28. In the film “March of the Penguins”, _. A. a baby penguin is stolen B. a pengu

36、in is sent out as a giftC. penguins are cute and attractive D. penguins have a bad sense of balance29.

39、ose viewed by your friends, family and other Internet users. But youd be wrong. Websites and social networks track your location and search history and make assumptions about your age, race, sex and political views. They then show ads they believe to be the most relevant, in order to maximize clicks

40、, but personalize which results you see by eliminating what they think is irrelevant.This is sold to the public as positive, making each web session relevant and interesting, yet it is leading researchers to fear this could widen divides between the North and South, rich and poor, and young and old.

41、 For example, in terms of wealth, if users are only ever shown particular products and job advertisements based on how much they earn or where they live, these users will never be given the opportunities to increase their wealth, or how much they spend on items.Princeton University has created bots（

42、自动程序）, each with their own fake profiles. These bots have different fake ages and sexes, earn different levels of money, are virtually(虚拟地) based in various locations around the world and have different interests. By using these bots to scan and research the web, the researchers hope to create a pic

43、ture of not only what each of them sees, but also what sites they are missing out on.According to lead researcher, Arvind Narayanan, “Our goal is a web privacy census（普查）which will be a comprehensive map of who are collecting what 7information, what they are inferring from it, and who they are shari

44、ng it with. It is an important step in our final goal of figuring out how users are treated based on that information.”Personalization also has its benefits. Shopping sites such as Amazon and eBay can scan a users search and purchase history to offer suggestions. This can help find similar, cheaper

45、items or items that are more suited to their needs at a glance. Its also possible to disable personalized ads and results. Googles search engine lets you switch off personalization, for example.Researchers from the Universitat Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona and Yahoo felt the issue was so potentially dam

46、aging, and they have also created a way to “burst the filter(过滤) bubble”. They believe that just because people have opposing views on certain topics it doesnt mean they wont share interests with others.32.
