1. According to Jon Ronson, the writer of the book, psychopaths are very charming, smart, easily bored and cruel. In the book, Ronson takes readers into the fascinating world of psychopaths by speaking to the experts and having amusing conversations with the psychopaths themselves.2．This book is about a deeply funny story, as well as a deeply sad story—the great Nineties moment when a bunch of punk rock bands from Seattle accidentally blew up into the world's biggest noise. The author gives the unique chronicle (编年史) of how it all happened, and how it ended too soon. The book also makes readers appreciate how strange it was.3．This is just one of the terrifying everyday tales of the body trade documented. It started out extremely well, with some fascinating stories about the trade in human body parts. It covers many different aspects of the “red market”， ranging from skeletons to blood, and even the giant business of collecting and selling human hair.4．It's been reported that the author has often attracted as much attention as his cars. The book is partly a biography covering a very short portion of the author's own life—his second stint (任期) at General Motor(GM)—which recently ended afterabout a decade. However, it's more than a biography. It is also a view on what went wrong with the US car industry and US industry in general.5．This is a great book for anyone who has an interest in science, or wants to see advances in medicine at greater rates that we've seen them so far. If a reader has teenagers with interests in science, he should have them read this book. It will inspire them to broaden their horizons beyond the typical research lab.B阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。

A．What should people look out for when buying a new pair of sports shoes?B．What kind of technology might we see in sports shoes of the future?C．Will a more expensive shoe make me run faster or jump higher, as the ads suggest?D．When you say that expensive shoes are no better at preventing injury than cheap ones, is it true?E．Some people say we should run just as well without shoes. What's your opinion of that?F．You helped develop the unstable Masai MBT shoes. Does this design actually work?1．________Nigg's Answer: That is a little bit overstated. But the relative frequency of running injuries doesn't seem to have changed much in the past 30 years, in spite of all the developments in sports shoe design. The literature shows that shoes are a minor player in injury development. If you take a group of people and want to injure them, send them out every day for a 20­kilometre run. A lot of them will be injured in three weeks. The major factors are the distance run, the intensity and recovery time, not the shoes.2．________Nigg's Answer: The problem is that if you go to a store and want to find your best shoes, you don't know what to do. Things that are sometimes done, like video analysis of your rear foot movement, may not help. The only way to assess whether a shoe is right for you is how it feels. If you feel comfortable in a shoe, it's likely to be good for you. We did a study with soldiers where we gave them six different inserts, and they chose the one they liked best. In four months, those with inserts had 53 per cent fewer injuries than those without.3．________Nigg's Answer: A shoe may act as a training device, making some muscles function more effectively for a majority of users. Or it may use materials that last longer. That may have something to do with its price. However, for the average runner, it is difficult to distinguish between actual functional designs and unnecessary features. Generally, the more a shoe controls movement, the more it acts like a cast, which means you have some muscles that don't work any more. This may mean that you lose some muscle strength, and your feet are more likely to be injured.4．________Nigg's Answer：There are claims that there are fewer injuries when you run barefoot, but there is not yet enough evidence, or enough research, to prove that. If you look at performance, most papers suggest an advantage of 3 to 4 per cent. With a few exceptions—Abebe Bikila in 1960 and Zola Budd in the 1980s—people don't run barefoot, so it may be that it's not an advantage, or it may be that we're just not used to it.5．________Nigg's Answer: Yes, for about 80 per cent of people. The major benefits are training the small muscles crossing the ankle joint, and a reduction of knee and lower back pain. However, some claims for these unstable shoes are overstated, such as the general muscle strengthening that they are claimed to produce.A 1—5 BACDFB 1—5 ECBFAC 1—5 CEFADD 1—5 DACEF。
