29、   Back in East LA the years passed slowly.  The generous man kept to life much as usual-taking evening strolls, whistling rap tunes, answering his door.

One day in particular, his doorbell rang, and there stood a finely dressed young gentleman in a three piece suit. "Uh oh," the man thought. "Jehovah's Witness." But before he could do anything, his guest spoke.

“You're the rich man，aren't you？”his guest asked.

“What can I do for you？"the man responded automatically，so accustomed to being asked for things.

“It is not what you can do for me，"answered his guest. "But what you have already done. ”

"“What have I done for you？" the man asked in surprise.

“You've given me a second chance at life. Why，with your generous gift，I was able to invest the money and pull myself out of my poverty. I no longer wallow in the grime and gutters，but I walk along crowded sidewalks with my head held high. I have you to thank for that. "

Suddenly，the man recognized his guest. It was the old bum（流浪汉）who'd been lying in the street. The man replied，"What I gave you，you did not ask for. I gave it simply because I saw you there and loved you. I would have given it to anyone in your position. ”

"All the more reason to come and thank you，"his guest said.

"But I am rich，"replied the man. I have many gifts to give. I don't expect anything in return. ”

"Good，"his guest said with a nod. “Because I don't have anything to offer in return. Whatever I have, you gave to me.  All I wanted to do was come and thank you. "

The man stared as his guest reached out and took him into an embrace.  It was the same gesture the man had so often offered to those at his door, yet this was the first time someone had offered it back.

Tears filled the man's eyes as his guest, a lowly bum off the street, held him in the most satisfying embrace he had ever received.

【1】The rich man helped the gentleman by ____________.

A. encouraging him to cheer up B. offering him an embrace

C. donating some money to him D. investing money to his business

A. he had nothing that the rich man liked

B. the rich man was the real owner of his wealth

C. he was not rich enough to give the rich man anything

D. he didn't think the rich man needed any material rewards

【3】What can be inferred from the passage?

A. The rich man has never had a satisfying embrace.

B. The rich man often helps others without asking for reward.

C. The gentleman once asked the rich man for help.

D. The gentleman met the rich man twice at the same place.

【4】Which of the following does the rich man most probably agree with?

30、   We hear between 10 and 200 lies every day, from “Sorry, my phone was dead” to “I’m fine.” And just by listening to simple linguistic _______, we could easily discover them, claim scientists and linguistics experts.

Studies have shown that stories based on _______ experiences are different from those based on real experiences, suggesting that coming up with a lie takes work and thus _______ a different pattern of language use.

In a TED Talk, Noah Zanden, a science communicator and chief executive of Quantified Communications based in Austin, Texas, explained how “linguistic text analysis”—which is based on the difference between how we _______the truth and lies--- can help people spot untruths.

There are four common patterns in the subconscious language of lying. Zanden explained that liars typically _______themselves less and talk more about others in a lie than usual. They sometimes use the third person to _________ themselves from their lie, because they subconsciously feel guilty. For the same reason, liars tend to be more _______. “For example, a liar might say, ‘Sorry, my stupid phone battery died. I hate that thing,’”Zanden said. People can also spot a lie when someone explains events using very _______ words. Our brains struggle to build a complex false story, which means that explanations about events that didn’t happen seem _______ straightforward. ________, although liars may keep their story simple, they tend to use longer and more complicated sentences, __________unrelated but factual sounding details to make their story sound more believable, he said.

Experts say that the patterns can be seen in famous ________. For example, when seven-time winner of the Tour de France, Lance Armstrong, ________using performance-enhancing drugs in 2005, he described an unreal situation ________ someone else to disassociate himself from his lie. In contrast, when he admitted to using them in 2013, his use of first-person pronouns increased by nearly three quarters, ________that he was telling the truth. He talked about his focus on personal emotions and motivations.

A Bad Idea

Think you can walk, dive, take phone calls, e-mail and listen to music at the same time? Well, New York's new law says you can't. And you'll be 【1】 $S100 if you do it on a New York City street.

The law went into force last month, following research and a(n) 【2】number of accidents that involved people using electronic gadgets when crossing the street.

Who's to【3】 ? Scientists say that our multitasking abilities are limited.

"We are under the impression that our brain can do more than it often can," says Rene Marois, a neuroscientist in Tennessee. “But a major limitation is the inability to【4】on two things at once".

The young people are often considered the great multitaskers. However, an Oxford University research suggests this idea is open to question. A group of 18-to 21-year-olds and a group of 35-to 39-year-olds were given 90 seconds to translate【5】into numbers, using a simple code. The younger group did 10 percent better when not interrupted. But when both groups were interrupted by a phone call or a(n) 【6】message, the older group matched the younger group in speed and 【7】.

It is difficult to measure the productivity【8】by multitaskers. But it is probably a lot. Jonathan Spire, chief analyst at Basex. a business-research firm, estimates the cost of interruptions to the American economy at nearly $650 billion a year.

The【9】is based on surveys with office workers. The surveys conclude that 28 percent of the workers' time was spent on interruptions and【10】time before they returned to their main tasks.
