　　His Own Way to Express Love

　　Yesterday was our three-year anniversary. We didn't do anything romantic; we just walked hand in hand and talked about our past and the future. This was pretty much what I had expected.

　　Andy is an unromantic guy : no sweet words or roses. Smart as he is, he is a little bit shy expressing his love. In contrast, I am an outspoken(直言不讳) girl who likes to show her feelings directly. So needless to say, I often feel that he is insensitive. I envy other girls who are surrounded by sweet words.

　　I was in this sullen mood until I heard a beautiful sentence one day: "If one does not love you in the way you like, it does not mean that he does not love you. " This simple but sensible sentence made me think about our happy days and recall his deep concern for me.

　　One,cold winter night, I got a high fever. He hurried to my dormitory and took me to the hospital. He was in such a hurry that he even forgot to wear socks. After arrival, he ran through the hospital handling all the formalities( 手续 ). When I was put on a drip (点滴), he told me interesting stories to make me happy. Being held in his warm arms and listening to his tender( 温柔的) voice, I had never felt so safe and comfortable. Gradually, I fell asleep. When I woke up 15 minutes later, he was still mumbling(咕哝地说) to me. He explained that if he had stopped talking I would have woken up. At that moment, I found love in his eyes.

　　Another time, I had a bad quarrel with my best friend. Although I knew it was my fault, I refused to admit it. I was angry when he insisted I apologize to her. He said that it was difficult to admit a mistake, but this was what everyone shduld do. The next morning, I apologized to my friend and asked for her forgiveness.

　　Electronic Mail

　　During the past few years，scientists all over the world have suddenly found themselves productively engaged in task they once spent their lives hvoiding--writing，any kind of writing，but particularly letter writing.Encouraged by electronic mail’s surprisingly high speed，convenience and economy，people who never before touched the stuff are regularly，skillfully，even cheerfullv tapping out a great deal of correspondence.

　　Electronic networks，woven into the fabric of scientific communication these davs. are the route to colleagues in distant countries，shared data，bulletin boards and electronic Joumals.Anyone with a personal computer， a modern and the software to link computers over teleDhone lines can sign on•An estimated five million scientists have done SO with more joining every day，most of them communicating through a bundle of interconnected domestic and foreign routes known collectively as the Internet，or net.

　　E-mail is starting to edge out the fax，the telephone，overnight mail，and of course.1and mail. It shrinks time and distance between scientific collaborators，in part because it is conveniently asynchronous(异步的)(Writers can type while their colleagues acmss time zones sleep;their message will be waiting.).If it is not yet speeding discoveries，it is certainly accelerating communication.

　　Jeremy Bernstein，the physicist and science writer，once called E-mail the Dhysicist，s umbilical cord(脐带).Later other people，t00，have been discovering its connective virtues.Physicists are using it;college students are using it;everybody is using it;and as a sign that it has come of age，the New Yorker has celebrated its liberating presence with a cartoon—an appreciative dog seated at a keyboard，saying happily，“on the Internet，nobody knows you’re a dog.”

　　The reasons given below about the popularity of E—mail can be found in the passage except

　　A.direct and reliable

　　How does Science Proceed?

　　How exactly does science work? How do scientists go about "doing" science? Ordinarily we think science proceeds in a straightforward way. Ideally, scientists make observations, formulate hypotheses, and test those hypotheses by making further observations. When there is difference between what is observed and what is predicted by the hypothesis, the hypothesis is reviewed. Science proceeds in this way, which is a gradual method of finding the best fit between observation and prediction.

　　But this idealized version of how one "does" science is naive.Although science demands proof that observations made by one observer be observable by other observers using the same methods.It is by no means clear that even when confronted with identical phenomena different observers will report identical observations.

　　And it is most certain that, even if the same observations are made, the conclusions as to the meaning of the observations frequently differ.

　　The fact is that all of us scientists included, see differently. Variations in human perception are well known and have been studied extensively. Distortions in perceptions are frequently seen among observers, even though they may be in identical settings viewing identical phenomena. A documented misperception from history can be found in the experience of Darwin.His ship, Beagle, after anchoring off the Patagonian coast, sent off a landing party in small rowboats. Amazingly, the Patagonian natives watching from shore were blind to the Beagle, but could easily see the tiny rowboats. They have no prior experience of huge sailing ships, but small rowing vessels were an everyday part of their life. Rowboats fit their model of the world but huge ships did not.Their model determined their perceptions.

　　Our ideas that science proceeds on an utterly objective and straightforward basis ignores the distortions of reality imposed by our own perceptual apparatus. In many cases we see what we have been trained to see, what we are used to seeing. If a subject is fitted with special glasses that are designed to invert the visual field, at first the subject sees everything upside down. After a period of time, as the glasses continue to be worn, a correction is made by our perceptual mechanism and the image is flipped, so that the world once again appears erect.

　　What is the main idea of the passage?

　　A.The research methods used by scientists.

　　B.Observation and human perception variation.

　　C.The relation between hypothesis and observation.

　　D.The human perceptual mechanism.

　　9、He is too young to be able to distinguish between right and wrong.

　　A.discard

　　B.discern

　　C.disperse

　　D.disregard

　　10、 Parents have a legal duty to ensure that their children are provided with efficient education suitable to their age.

　　A.impulse

　　B.influence

　　C.obligation

　　D.sympathy
