27、of the city. No one smiled a greeting, and they appeared uninterested in Soapy. One little girl in particular moved like a wisp (纤弱的小东西) in the background. The staff informed me that she had been there for over a month and had not spoken the entire time. Her mother said she had talked at one time bu
28、t not in recent memory. I didnt want to imagine what could have happened to rob this little girl of the natural curiosity and enthusiasm so natural to childhood.Spreading a blanket on the floor, I sat down and put Soapy on the blanket. As the silent child circled past me, I told the group that Soapy
29、 would come to talk to them if they sat on his blanket. Several children did this, including the silent girl. She sat rigidly at the edge of the blanket, legs held stiffly out straight in front of her. She was staring hard at Soapy. It appeared that he kept making eye contact with her. She didnt rea
30、ch out to him or encourage him in any way. Rather she sat tensely, just staring.Finally Soapy came to a stop about two inches from her. He quietly reached out and laid his chin on her knee. I was astonished. While a common behavior for dogs, this is not a behavior exhibited by rabbits, especially no
31、t by this rabbit. The child did not reach out to touch Soapy. Instead, she slowly leaned toward him. When her face was within inches of his, she carefully reached out and circled him with her arms. So softly that no one in the room could hear, she began to talk. Folded around the rabbit, she pillowe
32、d her head on his back and whispered to him. Soapy remained motionless.I looked up and noticed that the shelter workers had stopped talking. Every adult in the room froze in place. Time seemed to have stopped. The little girl reappeared when I was preparing to leave. She reached her hands out and lo
33、oked me directly in the eye. I held Soapy out to her. She wrapped him in a big hug and pressed her face against him. Suspended (悬挂) from my hands as he was, I was concerned that he would begin to struggle. Instead he reached out his head again and laid it on the childs shoulder. His breathing slowed
34、 and he closed his eyes. As quickly as it happened, the little girl released her hug and stepped back. As she turned away, I thought I saw the beginnings of a faint smile.The rabbit in his cloud of soft, warm fur had touched something deep in the child something that had died from too much hard expe
35、rience. Soapys innocence and trust appeared to arouse those very same qualities in the little girl. It seems the language of the heart is simple after all. 56. The little girl didnt speak any word because _. A. she liked staying silent and still B. she had no friends to talk with C. she had too much
36、 hard experience D. the people in the shelter all kept silent 57. What is the correct order of the following events? a. The little girl gave a faint smile. b. Soapy reached out and laid his chin on her knee.c. The little girl carefully reached out and circled him with her arms. d. Soapys breathing s
37、lowed and he closed his eyes. e. The little girl began to whisper to Soapy. A. c; b; e; d; a B. b; c; d; e; a C. b; c; e; d; a D. c; b; d; e; a 58. The authors purpose of writing the passage is to tell us _. A. a moving story about a lonely girl who hasnt talked for years B. to pay more attention to
38、 those children who have been deserted by their parents C. a lot of kind people around us are offering help to those in need D. the heart-to-heart communication between animal and human is powerfulBHow long are you willing to wait for a webpage to open before you start to lose your patience? Half a
39、minute? A few seconds?Google engineers have discovered that even 400 millisecondsas short as the blink of an eyeis too long for most Internet users.A millisecond is one thousandth of a second. People hardly notice such a small time difference, but it does cause them to stop searching, reported The N
40、ew York Times.“Subconsciously, you dont like to wait,” said Arvind Jain, a Google engineer. “Every millisecond matters.”Nowadays, millions of smart-phones and computers are constantly gathering and sending out information. With so many people downloading maps, sports videos, news and restaurant reco
41、mmendations, you can get digital “traffic jams”. Meanwhile, users are expecting faster and faster service.Google found that if one website is 250 milliseconds slower than another website, then people will visit it less often. This is why technology companies are now competing to be the fastest.Googl
42、e said people do expect different things from different websites because they realize not all loading times are the same. For example, a person will be more patient waiting for a video clip to load than for a search result.Even so, four out of five online users will click away if a video takes too l
43、ong to load. This makes it difficult for video websites to choose between the quality of pictures and fast loading times.Pursuing a higher speed has always been part of the history of the Internet.In the 1990s, when the World Wide Web first started to become popular, it was very crowded and slow; pe
44、ople called it the “World Wide Wait”. But engineers managed to fight the problem with new inventions. They laid a lot of fiber optic cables for high-speed transmissions; they improved software so it would work more smoothly; they placed computer servers all around the world to be nearer to users; al
45、l this increased speed.Nowadays we can enjoy much faster Internet. Major search engines such as Google and Microsofts Bing usually find search results in less than a second. But they will need to keep fighting to keep up with the developing demands of Internet users.59. What does the report of The New York Times indicate?A. A millisecond is one thousandth of a second.B. A millisecond has nothing to do with the Internet speed.C. A millisecond really makes a difference to the Internet users.D. 4
