If you go into the woods with your friends，stay with them. If you
don’t, you may get lost. If you do get lost, this is what you should do.
Sit down and stay where you are. Don’t try to find your friends - let them find you。

You can help them to find you by staying in one place.
Keep up the shouting or whistling, always three times together。

When people hear you，they will know that you are not just making noise for fun. They will let you know they have heard your signal. They will give two shouts，two whistles or two gunshots. When a signal is given twice，it is an answer to a call for help。

If you don’t think that you will get help before night comes, try to make a little house and cover up the holes with branches with lots of leaves and grass. What should you do if you get hungry or need to drink some water？You should have to leave your little branch house to look for a brook。

Don’t just walk away. Pick off small branches and drop them as you walk so that you can find your way back。

When you are with good friends you feel good about yourself, and you are glad to be with them. A friend is someone who —

even as you grow and change
●allows you the space to change，grow，make decisions，and even make mistakes
●listens to you and shares with you both the good times and the bad times
●respects your need for secrets，so you can tell them anything
●lets you freely express your feelings and emotions without judging, teasing，or criticizing you

A person once said，“Friendship is a continuing source of bonding （连接），releasing，and creating in yourself and with the other person. There is an emotional bond between the two people。

”
A good friend or supporter may or may not be the same age or the same sex as you，and may not have the same educational, cultural，or religious background, or share interests that are similar to yours.

Science is a major topic in our culture。

Since it touches almost every field of our life，educated people need at least some knowledge with its structure and operation。

They should also have an understanding of the scientific subculture in which scientists live and the kinds of people they are。

An understanding of general characteristics of science as well as specific scientific ideas is easier to obtain if one knows something about the things that excite and discourage the scientist。

This book is written for the person whose knowledge with science is not complete；for the person who has been presented with science as a musty（发霉的）storehouse of dried facts; for the person who sees the chief objective of science as the production of tricks; and for the person who views the scientists as some sort of magician。

The book can be used to add to a course in any science，to come with any course that attempts to give an understanding of the modern world，or simply to provide a better understanding of science。

We hope this book will lead readers to a
broader view on scientific attitudes and a more realistic view of what science is, who scientists are, and what they do。

It will give them an idea and understanding of the relationship between science and our culture and an appreciation of the roles science may play in our culture。

Besides, readers may learn to appreciate the relationship between scientific views and some of the values and philosophies（哲学）that are deep in our culture.
obvious in all parts of society, as more women enter traditionally male-controlled fields and make influential contributions。

We have also tried to make the book entertaining as well as informative。

Our method is usually informal。

We feel，as do many oth er scientists, that we shouldn’t take ourselves too seriously. As the reader may observe, we see science as a delightful pastime rather than as a cruel and unpleasant way to earn a living.
43. According to the passage，‘scientific subculture’ means __________.
A。

scientific society B. technical groups
C。

complex situation D。

knowledge system 44。

We need to know something about science because __________. A。

scientists have specific scientific ideas
B. science affects almost every field of our life
C。

it is easier to understand general characteristics of science
D. it is not easy to understand the things that excite and discourage scientists
45。

The book mentioned in this passage is written for readers who __________.
A。

are scientists making influential contributions
B。

want to have a little understanding of science
C。

want to break the male—controlled world
D. have a misunderstanding about science
46。

This passage most probably is __________。

A。

the review of a book B. the concluding part of a book
C. the information added to a book D。

the introduction of a book
47. According to the passage，we can infer that the book probably is __________。

A. interesting B。

D
A German company was concerned about talks in Moscow trying to sell some 100 million dollars worth of equipment to a Russian State
company. Talks went smoothly but differences remained. So Martin Bayer himself，the CEO of the German Company, decided to come to Moscow to head the talks。

Besides caring about his business, the CEO wanted to go to Russia to hunt bears。

Martin Bayer was one of the greatest hunters of our time （and the Russians knew about it）。

He went to the Sahara more than hundred times and hunted lions, crocodiles; he hunted polar bears in the North Pole and tigers in the rain forests of India。

But he had never hunted Russian bears.
So the Russians decided to organize a bear hunt for Mr. Bayer to sweeten the talks. This wasn't a simple task. Some people in the west still believe that bears may be found and seen everywhere in Russian cities just like squirrels may be seen in our back yards. This is not true. The closest place one may find bears in the wild is maybe 2，500 miles away from Moscow. However， a solution was quickly found. The Russian businessmen went to Moscow Circus（马戏团）and for ＄2，000 bought a very old bear。

This bear used to amuse and amaze audiences in many countries for 30 years, but got and looked too old, and was retired.
“Be careful,the Russian bears are very dangerous，and frightening,” they told to Mr. Bayer。

“If compared to the Russian bears, your African lions are nothing more than harmless cats.” The bear was brought to a forest 50 miles from Moscow and was left there。

Mr. Bayer was told that bears were plentiful in that forest and that many cattle and even people had been eaten in the surrounding villages.
Mr。

Bayer was excited and ready to hunt. This could become the most successful part of his extraordinary hunting experience. The next moment Mr。

Bayer saw a bear in a helmet driving on a motorcycle through the forest in front of him。

The bear had a happy expression on his face，as he was doing something he had been doing in the circus for 30 years: circling on a motorcycle！
Mr。

Bayer lives in a private mental institution near Hamburg happily ever after. The equipment was never sold to Russia. It was sold to Iraq instead。

48。

Why did the Russians invite Mr. Bayer to hunt bears?
A。

Russian bears are famous for their cruelty.
B。

They managed to find a bear for hunting。

C. They expected the trade to be successful.
D。

There was a bear in Moscow Circus.
49. Why did the Russians say “Be careful, the Russian bears are very dangerous, and frightening”?
A。

To tell Mr。

Bayer that many people had been killed by bears。

B。

To make Mr. Bayer feel the hunting really challenging。

C. To warn Mr. Bayer to mind his safety while hunting。

D。

To tell Mr。

Bayer that the bear is really dangerous。

50. We can infer from the last paragraph that __________。

A. Mr。

Bayer has gone mad
B. the bear injured him badly
C。

he has worked in a mental institution since then
D。

the trade has gone smoothly between Russian and Iraq
51。

Which would be the best title of the passage?
A。

Mr。

Bayer, a Brave Hunter
B。

Russian Bears, Dangerous Animals
C. Don’t Hunt in Russia
D。

Don’t Deal with the Russians

Dear friend,
When we learned over the radio and in the newspapers that some part of your country was flooded, we became very worried. It is said that many houses were washed away, so you couldn’t have your classes as usual。
