Later, we realized that the advice given to us by our friends was correct.The culture shock started with the weather. Here, the burning sun can cook an egg in a minute! The hot weather made us feel so tired that we were falling asleep at midday! Another culture shock was the working week. We worked from Saturdays to Wednesdays, including Sundays. It was also strange to see people praying (祷告) in a certain direction! They have strict rules for women. They do not let people see their faces in public. They do not let women drive cars, either. All dresses worn by women have to cover the body completely. They believe that women cannot be seen in public. At the weekends, we went camping in the desert. I will never forget watching the sun setting over the desert. We also enjoyed riding on the camels.In the end, we enjoyed living there, but their culture is very different from the American culture.31.

Scientists mark one molecule “A” and the other molecule “B”. According to which and how many molecules are on the red cell, scientists divide blood into four types: A, B, AB and O.Your blood type will stay the same all your life.Scientists have been wondering if there are some links (联系) between people’s blood types and their personalities, but they are not certain.But some say that people with the same blood type may have things in common. What’s your blood type? Do you have fam ily members or friends who are of the same type as you? Read the following.People with Type A: They look peaceful from the outside. But they ask too much of themselves that they may be very nervous inside. They get happy or sad easily. Sometimes they are shy but always very careful. They can easily win people’s trust. People with T ype B: They have strong minds. Once they start a task, they don’t give up easily. They’ll try their best to finish it and do it well. Type B people always try to make themselves different from others. They want to do things in their own way. People with Type AB: They are maybe the strangest among all blood types. They can be both open and shy, noisy and quiet at the same time! They are responsible and always ready to help others.People with Type O: They are open and good at making friends. They always start tasks but don’t always finish them. They have lots of new ideas and love to be the centre of attention. They always strongly believe in themselves.36.

Maybe or maybe not, but you can never see them at the same time.“What ’s happening? Is something wrong with my eyes?” You maywonder at what you see. Don ’t worry. Here is how it goes:When we look at things, our eyes send messages to our brains and thenour brains interpret （解读） the information. However, sometimes our brains interpret the received information in a wrong way. It seems that our eyes are playing a joke on us. This often happens and we call it “Visual illusion （视觉错误）.Movie makers often make use of illusions. They make the objects around actors much smaller or bigger than usual. This makes us believe that the actors are much larger or smaller than they usually are. The movies Jurassic Park and Honey I shrunk the kids just make use of illusions.41.
