22、Being deaf in a hearing world can lead to painful feelings of isolation (孤独).
Waitress Kelsey recently shared an experience on a social media sharing site that quickly zoomed (陡直上升) to the top of the “ front page of the Internet”. In her brief post, Kelsey explained that she waits tables at a bar during the evenings, and one night she noticed a deaf man sitting alone in her section (区域).
When Kelsey isn’t working at the bar she makes a good hourly pay doing sign language translation, so she sensed an opportunity to use her skill to make this customer feel a little less alone in the world. She went up to his table and began chatting with him in sign language(手语).
When the table next to his noticed their silent conversation they asked Kelsey how long she’d been signing. They had a brief conversation about her goal of becoming certified (合格的) to translate sign language in a medical or mental health setting. She didn’t think much about the whole exchange until the customers had left the restaurant and she was tidying up the tables. There, on the table of the customers who’d seen her American sign language conversation with the deaf man, was a handwritten note on the receipt.
“Thank you for what you do; it absolutely matters!” the note said. “Good luck with finishing your degree!” Not only that, but they’d left her a $100 tip.
Kelsey was moved by the kind note, especially because she wasn’t doing anything out of the ordinary. To her, she was just conversing with someone in a language that only they understood. Yet to the deaf man and the people seated next to him she’d bridged a gap and helped someone who probably feels lonely a lot of the time.
Kelsey shared the note on the Internet to spread more love and light in the world.

23、 Anne sat with her feet up on the couch, drinking a soda. She heard footsteps by the front door. Brenda was right one time, as usual. Never a minute early or late—for her, everything was exact.
Anne placed her feet on the floor, reaching for the remote, and turned off the television. She knew Brenda would demand her complete attention. She knew Brenda would hand up her coat in the closet by the door (third hanger from the left) and then head to the kitchen for her daily inspection (exact seven steps). She knew this because they had been roommates for six months. Taking a deep breath, she thought about what she would say to Brenda. She waited and watched from her spot on the couch.
A moment later, Brenda stepped into the kitchen and surveyed the scene. Anne watched her expression, watched her eyes focus on the sink, and watched her face harden when she saw the dishes piled high. Pointing to the dishes, Brenda said disappointedly, 'I don't believe what I’m seeing. I thought we agreed to share the responsibilities. I thought it was your turn to clean the kitchen this week. '
'I haven't got to them yet, ' Anne replied. 'I've been really busy. Relax. I've got all night. 'She walked into the kitchen and added her empty glass to the top of the pile.
Brenda fumed. 'You know I'm having company tonight! Somehow I thought you would have done your share in the kitchen. If we want to remain roommates, things have to change. '
The phone rang, and Anne started to answer it.
Brenda said in the background, 'Tell them to call back; we need to settle this now. I told you I’m having company soon. '

24、 Scientists have found what they believe are pieces of a meteor(流星)that fell to the earth last year. The objects were discovered off the coast of the United States in the Pacific Ocean.
The crew of the Nautilus, a private research ship, recovered the rock particles(颗粒).The Nautilus is operated by the Ocean Exploration Trust. The group says its aim at present is to examine areas of the ocean that have never been explored before.
The search was launched after US government weather stations observed a large meteorite exploding some months ago. The explosion lit up the sky and sent the rock particles to the earth. The meteorite fall was the largest recorded over the United States in at least 20years. The team includes scientists from NASA, the Olympic Coast National Marine Sanctuaryand the University of Washington. The scientists examined what they believe were two small meteorite fragments. Further testing is needed before they can confirm that the material came from the explosion.
The Nautilus is equipped with two remotely operated vehicles(ROVs), called Hercules and Argus. These robotic submarines help researchers find and collect materials from the seafloor. The fact that the particles landed in the ocean, instead of on land, means larger pieces may have survived and can be studied. For this reason, scientists decided to launch the first intentional search for meteorites from the ocean, Until the latest research, scientists had only accidentally discovered a small number of meteorites from drilling operations.
The objects recovered from the bottom of the sea likely came from the recent explosion for two main reasons. First,meteorite particles are basically made of glassy materials that do not tend to last long in seawater. Secondly, they came from what looked like a small hole on the seafloor. Some evidence shows that they came from something that fell.
【1】What is the current goal of the crew of the Ocean Exploration Trust?
A. To recover the rock particles.
B. To observe movements of the universe.
C. To study unexplored places of the ocean.
D. To examine creatures of the explored ocean.
【2】What mainly caused the start of the search in the sea?
A. A huge meteor shower. B. Business value of meteors.
C. Plenty of natural resources. D. The brainstorm of researchers.
【3】Why do the scientists prefer to search for meteors in the ocean?
A. They can find meteors more easily.
B. They may find bigger rock particles.
C. They like to explore strange sea areas.
D. They have better submarine equipment.
【4】What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph?
A. Offer clues for the search.
B. Give reasons to support a guess.
C. Stress the importance of the event.
D. Describe the process of the search.
