24、   Conflict is on the menu tonight at the care La Chope. This evening, as on every Thursday night, psychologist Maud Lehanne is leading two of France's favourite pastimes coffee drinking and the "talking cure". Here they are learning to get in touch with their true feelings. It isn't always easy. The customers－some thirty Parisians who pay just under $2 (plus drinks) per session-are quick to intellectualize (高谈阔论), slow to open up and connect. "You are forbidden to say 'one feels', or 'people think'," Lehanne told them. "Say 'I think', 'Think me'."

A care society where no intellectualizing is allowed？ It couldn't seem more un-French. But Lehanne's psychology care is about more than knowing oneself: it's trying to help the city's troubled neighborhood cafes. Over the years, Parisian cafes have been influenced by the changes in the French lifestyle-longer working hours, a fast-food boom and a younger generation's desire to spend more time at home. Many new theme cafes appear to change the situation. Cafes focused around psychology, history, and engineering are catching on, filling tables well into the evening.

The city's "psychology cafes", which offer great comfort, are among the most popular places. Middle-aged housewives, retirees (退休人员), and the unemployed come to such cafes to talk about love, anger, and dreams with a psychologist. And they come to Lehanne's group just to learn to say what they feel. "There's a strong need in Paris for communication," says Maurice Frisch, a cafe La Chope regular who works as a religious instructor in a nearby church. "People have few real friends. And they need to open up." Lehanne says she'd like to see psychology cafes all over France. "If people had normal lives, these cafes wouldn't exist," she says. "If life weren't a battle, people wouldn't need a special place just to speak." But then, it wouldn't be France.

【1】What are people encouraged to do at the cafe La Chope?

A. Express their true feelings. B. Keep in touch with friends.

C. Show off their knowledge. D. Learn a new subject.

【2】What are the new theme cafes expected to do?

A. Create more jobs. B. Supply better drinks.

C. Serve the neighborhood. D. Save the cafe business.

【3】Why are psychology cafes becoming popular in Paris?

A. Because they bring people true friendship.

B. Because they offer a place for business links.

C. Because they help people realize their dreams.

D. Because they give people spiritual support.

25、   I’m the engine that keeps you working, and I’m here to share some of my secrets. I have 100 billion nerve cells(神经细胞), so you need to consider before you blame(责怪) me for not being so fast enough. It’s not really my fault: information travels through me too fast and sometimes I can’t keep all of it.

The Internet is making me weak. A study found that you’ve been relying more on the Internet. That means I’m going to forget more over time. Scientists have been worried that our ability to think is being lost.

In general, I’m about ten percent larger in men than women. It doesn’t make men smarter. It just lets me control their different bodies. Actually, it’s more common for women to get angry, but men can’t focus on a thing well. They usually have language difficulties.

Your mobile phone scares me. A new study showed that more than one hour of mobile phone use can get me in trouble. Mobile phone radiation(辐射) might cause me to be in a worse situation.

Some parts of me never sleep. It’s important for you to get a good night’s sleep. Sleep helps to improve memories. In fact, when you are asleep, some parts of me are still working hard on my duty. Besides, laughter is really the best medicine for me. So remember to laugh more for my better situation.

【1】What’s the result of depending too much on the Internet?

A.It will make people remember things for a long time.

B.It helps people to remember things more easily.

C.It may influence one’s way of thinking.

D.It may make us have the ability to learn.

【2】Why can’t I keep all the information?

A.Because there is too much information.

B.Because information travels too fast.

C.Because I can hardly work.

D.Because I am lazy.

【3】What can you do to make “me” work better?

A.Get a shorter sleep every night.

B.Blame “me” for not being fast enough.

C.Use “me” more instead of the Internet.

D.Use a mobile phone for one hour each day.

【4】What can we know from the passage?

A.Men can pay close attention to a thing.

B.At night, “I” can completely sleep and stop working.

C.It’s clear that “I” should take medicine to work better.

D.Mobile phone radiation may bring serious problems to “me”.

26、Many companies use guards and expensive alarm systems (报警系统) to protect their property (财产). Soon a new kind of protection will be used—robots. Engineers have been working on the first mobile robots for businesses. The robots will patrol (巡逻) factories, warehouses (仓库), and museums at night.

The mobile robots will move around slowly on wheels. They will be able to find people through walls and pick up sounds, such as breaking glass. They can be fixed with loud sirens (警笛) to frighten thieves, or radios to signal police or guards.

To protect a building, a robot will have to move around without knocking into the walls. Information about the building will have to be stored in the robot’s small, built-in computer. A floor map could be programmed into the computer’s memory, for example.

A mobile robot will not be able to do everything. Unlike human guards, it will not be able to climb stairs, open doors, or move along rough ground. It won’t be able to tell the difference between friends and enemies. Because of that, people will have to be barred from the area it patrols.

One kind of mobile robot will be able to “sense” whether a chair or box has been moved and go around it. This robot will also judge size well enough so that it won’t send an alarm if a cat crosses the room. And if someone tries to steal this robot, it will sound a loud, painful siren. The three-foot-tall robot will be hard to be stolen anyway. It will weigh about 200 pounds.

US companies pay almost $10 billion a year to protect their property with alarm systems and human guards. Mobile robots may be cheaper.

【1】Why are robots of this kind called mobile robots?

A. Because they are able to climb stairs.

B. Because they are able to send an alarm.

C. Because they can open doors.

D. Because they can move around slowly on wheels.

【2】Where will a robot get directions for moving around a building?

A. From a human guard.   B. From a built-in computer.

C. From another robot.   D. From radio signals.

【3】The underlined word “barred” means “   ”.

A. protected   B. allowed   C. marked   D. prevented

【4】According to the passage, a mobile robot will not be able to   .

A. sense whether something has been moved

B. sense a cat crossing the room

C. move along rough ground

D. find people through walls

【5】This passage mainly describes how robots will   .

A. protect the museum   B. set off a siren

C. judge the size of a person   D. patrol buildings

28、Travel can teach kids more than a textbook. Travelling with kids is good r【1】 them. They can find new interests. Travel makes information alive for kids, and makes it much more exciting than studying textbooks or d【2】experiments in the lab. While travelling, they learn h【3】to deal with new situations, and communicate with other people. They learn patience, because sometimes i【4】takes a long time to get to some exciting or interesting places.

I've been travelling since I was seven years old. For me, to stop travelling would be like taking something a【5】from my soul(灵魂).1 can't live without travelling and I wouldn't be who I am if I don't travel. Some people think it's h【6】to travel after having kids. But in my opinion, when people become parents, it doesn’t m【7】they couldn't travel any more. My children have been travelling since they were three weeks old.

Bringing a new life into the world comes with many responsibilities(责任)and I'd love to be a good mother. One of my duties is to e【8】 my children. I'm so thankful that my parents took me on family trips when I was y【9】. I've learned that the outside world is more colorful than the little one I was living in. Of course, I want to pass these travel e【10】 on to my children.

I value the memories I have travelling with my children, I'm sure they will always remember them in their lives.

Hello, everyone, welcome to our Chitchat. In last week's Chitchat, we asked our readers if they could re-select their major--the main subject of study in college, which one they would pick. Here are some of their ideas.

If I got do-over(重来), I will make a change

＠Jim Zhang

If I got do-over I would choose _____ . I’m really fond of teaching kids. Honestly, I had no idea  about what I wanted to do or what I really liked even after graduation. Three years later, I realized that it was a great loss of time to think too much about what I should do, because what I really need is doing it with all heart and keeping on. Unfortunately, I was too young to realize that at that time.

If I got do-over, I will ______.

＠Agatha

I can get do-over, I would choose my original major. For me, majoring in mathematics was_____ . Proving mathematical theories in words was crazy. However, it is mathematics that makes me have strong logical thinking. The biggest pity about my major is that I didn't try as hard as I should. In a word, I don't regret choosing mathematics as my major but I regret not learning it better and further. Do-over is not in my list

＠tina

____ , I don' t regret my choice. As an English teacher, sometimes it's hard to improve students' English level. But when I see great progress that students have made, I feel really content. Anyway, every field needs_______ For students, being good at English is not the only way to success. I' m really pleased with their progress, even not in English learning. Then why should I choose my major again?
