10、 shed say. The first time she said that, soda went up my nose. I told my father how Mrs. Stanley talked as if Mr. Stanley were still alive. Dad said she was probably lonely, and that I ought to sit and listen and nod my head and smile, and maybe shed work it out of her system. So thats what I did, a
11、nd it turned out Dad was right. After a while she seemed content to leave her husband over at the cemetery (墓地). I finally quit delivering newspapers and didnt see Mrs. Stanley for several years.

17、fety, regardless of his own. Hunt seizes as a kind of action hero, but theres an interesting change in;ImpossibleGhost Protocol (2011) , the fourth movie of the series.

18、d this idea continues in Mission : ImpossibleFallout, which arrived in Chinese mainland cinemas on Aug. 31. In the latest film of the series, Hunts dilemma is even bigger than before, when hes forced to make a choice between saving someone he loves and the entire world. The theme of the moral dilemm
19、a , in which the hero must choose between two very difficult options, is common in cinema. Characters like James Bond and Batman often face moral dilemmas of their own. Bond is loyal to Britain and spares no effort to finish every task, but this often comes at the cost of following the rules. For mo
20、st people, killing someone even for a good reason isnt acceptable. However, Bond has only two choices in front of him : kill his enemies or be killed.

25、e Was Caught in a Dilemma4、Recently, a 1935 letter in which Ernest Hemingway detailed his catch of a 500lb blue marlin(青枪鱼), an adventure that is believed to have partly inspired his novel The Old Man and the Sea, has been sold for28,000 (22,000) The handwritten letter was sent by Hemingway on 8 May
26、 to the fishing editor of the Miami Herald, laying out in great detail how the author and his friend Henry Strater battled to keep sharks away from the marlin after catching it off the Bahamian island of Bimini Nate D Sanders, the auction(拍卖) company which sold the letter, said it documented for the
27、 first time in Hemingways own words not only the size of the marlin, but also the attack by sharks, reflecting the plot of the novel The company added that Hemingways account of the marlin catch differed from other anecdotes of it, one of which described Hemingway using a machine gun on the sharks,

33、rs do not? 36 However, it is not so. Lets look at two psychological experiments which will give you the key to happy interpersonal relations. The first experiment is called the Hawthorne effect after Hawthorne, Illinois, where the experiment took place. A group of psychologists examined the work pat
34、terns of two groups of workers in the Western Electric Company. 37 .The psychologists changed the working conditions for one group twice but left the other group alone. They were surprised to find that productivity increase on both occasions and in both groups. They concluded that the increase in pr
35、oductivity came from the attention given to the workers by the management. It had increased their motivation (积极性) and so they had worked harder. In other words, if you take an interest in others ,they will want to please you and you will have good relations with them. 38 After Martin Luther King, J
36、r was killed in the 1960s, a teacher, Jane Elliott, living in an all white town decided to help her class of young children understand why the Civil Rights Movement had been necessary in America. She divided the class into two groups: one with blue eyes and the other with brown eyes. Other eye color
37、s such as hazel or green were excluded from his exercise. Then she told the class that brown eyed people were cleverer than blue eyed ones because of an agent (化学作用) for brown color found in their blood. Blue eyed people were stupid, lazy and not to be trusted. Jane Elliott did not need to say any m
38、ore. The brown eyed students quickly got used to their new role as the leaders of the class. The blue eyed students became quiet and withdrawn. Then she discovered something very interesting. Four poor brown eyed readers began to read fluently in a way they had never done before. 39 .So if you want
39、to be successful and happy, take an interest in others whether they are your classmates or workmates. Congratulate them on their successes and sympathize(同情) with them in their troubles. 40 . A. Before the experiment the management talked to both groups of workers and explained that they wanted to f
40、ind the best working environment for them. B. Remember that the way you treat others will decide their attitude and behavior to you. C. The second experiment shows what happens to personal relations if you are rude to or ignore(忽略) others. D. The ones who have more friends usually are those who care
41、 about others. E. Jane Elliott had shown that the way people are treated affects not only their behavior but also their confidence and their performance. F. You may even imagine that this ability was something they were born with because it seems so effortless to them. G. The second experiment tells
42、 us what teachers said has a great effect on the students.6、 As a kid I loved everything about school. I loved books,1 , tests and homework.

To my surprise, both Linda and I thrived (茁壮成长)in evening school. I went back again the next semester,an
46、d my grades14 improved. It was15 going to school again, but it was no game. Sitting in a class full of kids was awkward,16 most of them were respectful and encouraging.
