He likes building model ships inside old bottles.Gordon has always loved ships, especially sailing ships from the old days. His interest was made many

17、 years ago when he visited a museum in Ottawa, Canada, where model ships in bottles were displayed(展示). Gordon regarded it as a wonderful show. At the same time an idea came to his mind. How did the craftsman(手藝人) get the ship through the narrow neck of the bottle? Gordon decided to make a research.

18、He found an old craftsman who was glad to teach him the basic skills. First, Gordon takes an old bottle. Then he puts in a layer of paint, carefully shaped and painted to look like the sea. Next, he builds the ship. To get the ship through the neck of the bottle, Gordon folds(折疊) down the masts(桅桿).

19、 Once the ship is inside the bottle, he takes a long, thin tool to raise the masts.Gordon has completed more than one hundred models. His aim is to build up aircraft carriers(航空母艦), buses, cars, airplanes, houses, and many other kinds of models inside the bottles. This will be more challenging(挑戰(zhàn)),

Gordon has made less than 100 models so far. D. Gordon will use a smaller bottle in the future.CIf English mean

22、s endless new words, difficult grammar and sometimes strange pronunciation, you are wrong. Havent you noticed that you have become cleverer since you started to learn a language?According to a new study by a British university, learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power.

23、Researchers found that learning other languages changes grey matter. It is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles(肌肉).A team led by Dr. Andrea Mechelli, from University College London, took a group of Britons who only spoke English. They were compared with a group of “early bilinguals” who

24、had learnt a second language before the age of five, as well as a number of later learners.Scans(掃描) showed that grey matter density(密度) in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without a second language. But the longer a person waited before mastering a new language, the smaller the di

25、fference.“Our findings suggest that the structure(結(jié)構(gòu)) of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language,” said the scientists. It means that the change itself increase the ability to learn.Professor Dylan Vauhan Jones of the University of Wales has researched the link between t

26、he bilingualism and maths skills. “Having two languages gives you two windows on the world and makes the brain more flexible(靈活的), ” he said. “You are going beyond language and have a better understanding of different ideas.”The findings were matched in a study of native Italian speakers who had lea

27、rned English as a second language between the ages of two and 34. Reading, writing, and comprehension were all tested. The results showed that the younger they started to learn, the better. “Studying a language means you get an entrance to another world,” explained the scientists.53. What does the w

28、riter talk about in the passage? A. Useful methods must be used in language learning. B. We should keep learning a second language abroad.C. Language can help us communicate with each other. D. Second language learning can improve our mind.54. What does the underlined phrase “grey matter” refer to?

29、A. The memory of the brain.B. Our body language. C. A certain part of the brain.D. A kind of dark color.55. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Learning a second language can help us find a good job quickly. B. Dr. Mechelli made the experiment among three different groups.C. L

30、earning a second language is the same as studying other subjects. D. The earlier we learn a second language, the more money we pay.DEvery year a couple of things rise to the top of the “must have” list, becoming the seasons popular gifts. Hundreds of people line up outside stores, hoping to buy the

31、gifts. Such gifts are examples of social epidemics(流行病)-cases when many people do the same thing at the same time. Why do we end up with the same presents? It could be that the popular gifts are simply better than the rest. But more likely, a gifts popularity is random(任意的).Peoples shopping behavior

32、 is not independent. Our behavior depends on the behavior of those around us. This influences both what people talk about and what they buy. Conversations are often driven to the common ground, so we talk about celebrities (like Lady Gaga), the weather or the local sports team. When it comes to the

33、presents we are buying, we tend(傾向于) to bring up the things we think others have heard of.Social influence leads us to buy what other people buy. Some scientists recently did an experiment. In the study, people visited a website where they could listen to songs and download them for free. Some peopl

34、e were given information about what previous(先前的) site visitors had downloaded, and this led to convergence(趨同): People tended to download songs others had chosen. In addition, participants(參與者) in the experiment were divided into eight groups and could see the previous downloads only people of thei

35、r own group. What the researchers found was powerful. Across the separate groups, the songs that became “hits” were greatly different. The top song in one social world was a failure in another. Why? Well, if people imitate(模仿) others, then whatever gets an early advantage in popularity is likely to

36、stand out.As with these “hit” songs, the popular gifts depend less on their qualities but more on human psychology(心理). So as you stand in long line trying to get whatever it is that everyone else seems to want this year, stop to realize that this may have less to do with the gift and more about our

37、 instincts(本能). And remember that whoever you are giving the present to may be just as happy with something else.56. Whats the passage mainly about? A. Our shopping behavior is influenced by our society. B. We should learn to depend on ourselves in our life. C. Everyone should line up and buy the gi

38、fts in order. D. We should have to follow the rules in the market.57. What does the underlined word “celebrities” probably mean? A. Peace.B. News.C. Famous people.D. Friendship.58. Why does the writer show the experiment to us in the third paragraph? A. To tell us how to carry out an experiment care

39、fully. B. To make us pay more attention to the achievements. C. To explain why people buy different kinds of gifts crazily. D. To show how social influence shapes common results.59. We can make a conclusion from the passage that_. A. the gift you offer may not be the favorite of its owner B. the pri

40、ce of all the gifts will be raised in a short time C. we must make sure there is a trade mark on the gift D. more and more gifts may be returned to the stores soon 四、閱讀短文，根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的五個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有一項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。Joanne Rowling was born in England.
