Often my best matchmaking ideas come while I’m in the bath. Sometimes I have a really good idea about who might be with whom.Before I did matchmaking, I was a social worker, but I knew I wanted to do something without bosses telling me what to do and that I am good at dealing with people. Also I had seen too many broken marriages and too many people go downhill because they were so lonely. So I gave up my job, did a bit of research and started the matchmaking business in 1970.Over the last few years we’ve been doing introductions throughout Europe as well as here in Britain. Europeans want to meet British people. For every 100 people who come to us, about 65 will settle down. We keep going until clients (委托人) find someone that they get on very well with. Of course there are impossible people, those who will never settle.Sometimes I end up giving advice to clients. A few months ago, we had a highly paid scientist with a very nice face, but every woman refused to meet him a second time. It soon became clear that he did not like changing his shirts. So I had to be very honest and direct and told him, “But a woman can’t start to love you if your shirt smells.” The job is most satisfying when I get a call from a couple telling me they have fallen in love.1. Which of the following is the best title for this passage?A. On Being a MatchmakerB. Dealing with PeopleC. Matchmakers and ClientsD. The Most Satisfying Job2. What does the author mean by saying “I’m very organized”?A. She is especially capable of organizing things.B. She has a fixed plan for her everyday activities.C. She likes to remember things she has to do.D. She always finishes what she does on time.3. What was the personal factor that made the author change her job?A. She was warm and kind-hearted.B. She could understand people better than others.C. She liked to make her own decisions.D. She was interested in social problems.4. From the author’s experience given in the last paragraph, we can conclude that to be a good matchmaker, sometimes it is better for one to be ____.A. directB. kindC. hard workingD. organized7,We have saved as a final set of emotions the two most important emotions (情感) towards other people: love and its opposite, hate. Love can be seen everywhere. Yet surprisingly, love has been the subject of less scientific research than other emotions, such as anger and fear. The reason for this may be twofold. First, love is a very complex (复杂的) emotion, difficult to describe and measure. Secondly, unlike many extreme emotions, extreme love is generally not a problem; thus less medical attention has been paid to it.What is love? This is a complex question and requires a complex answer. Love is a lasting, strong, positive attraction and feeling for another person or thing. But it is more than this. It also includes feelings of caring, protection and excitement. When two people are in love, they feel drawn to one another; they greatly enjoy each other’s company; and they may be sexually attracted to one another.Sometimes it is easier to think in terms of different kinds of love: “puppy”love, romantic love, brotherly love, and so forth.Though they differ in some respects, they share one important characteristic: a strong positive feeling toward another.Our feelings toward other people are often complex. We may love someone and, at the same time, be angry with him. Or we may love someone, even though we envy him. We might even love someone and, at the same time, hate him for some specific reason. Hate is a strong negative emotion toward someone, and is due to anger, or some other factor. Like love, hate can be a very strong emotion. It can also be very dangerous. The question is often asked, “Is it bad to hate?” The best answer is probably “sometimes yes and sometimes no.” Usually hate does not help us; it makes us feel unhappy and makes us do things that may hurt others. However, sometimes it may be necessary to hate and hurt someone in order to protect loved ones.1.In the parts previous to the passage you’ve just read, the author has probably been discussing ____.A. the two most important human emotions---love and hateB. some emotions that are only produced by animalsC. some other sets of human emotions than of love and hateD. none of the above2. According to the passage, the emotion of love has been medically paid less attention to because ____.A. it is too common to be talked aboutB. compared with other kinds of emotions, love is not so importantC. the study of love needs great effort and advanced scientific researchD. love is harmless and too complex for description3.From the passage, we can conclude that when two people are in love, they ____.A. will never be angry with or hate each otherB. are strongly attracted to each otherC. will not envy each otherD. tend to do all of the above4.Which of the following might best be used as the title for the passage?A. Two Most Important Emotions Towards Others.B. Love More and Hate Less.C. The Great Benefits of Love and the Serious Harm of Hate.D. Some Advice to Those Who Are In Love.8,Every pet owner loves his pet. There is no argument here. But when we asked our readers whether they would clone their beloved animals, the responses were split almost down the middle. Of the 228 readers who answered it, 108 would clone, 111 would not and nine weighed each side without offering an opinion.Clearly, from readers’response, this is an issue that reaches deeply into both the joy and eventual sadness of owning a pet. It speaks, as well, to people’s widely differing expectations over the developing scientific procedure.Most of the respondents who favored the idea strongly believed it would produce at least a close copy of the original; many felt the process would actually return an exact copy. Those on the otherside, however, held little hope a clone could never truly recreate a pet, many simply didn’t wish to go against the natural law of life and death.Both sides expressed equal love for their animals. More than a few respondents owned “the best dog/cat in the world”. They thought of their pets as their “best friend”, “a member of the family,”“the light of my life.”They told moving stories of pets’heroism, intelligence and selfless devotion.Little wonders the loss is so disturbing---and the cloning so attractive. “People become very close to their animals, and the loss can be just as hard to bear as when a friend or family member dies,” says Gary Kowalski, author of Goodbye, Friend: Healing Wisdom for Anyone Who Has Ever Lost a Pet. “For me, cloning feels like an attempt to turn death away…It’s understandable. Death is always painful. It’s difficult to deal with. It’s hard to accept.”But would cloning reduce the blow? This question seemed to be at the heart of this problem.1.So far as the cloning of pets is concerned, a recent survey shows that, of all pet owners, ____.A. a lot more of them are for itB. a lot more of them are against itC. very few of them are willing to tell their opinionsD. about half of them are for it and the other half against it2.While talking about the respondents from the readers, the expression “eventual sadness of owning a pet” refers to ____.A. the death of one’s petB. the high cost of owning a petC. the troubles one has to deal with in keeping a petD. the dangers involved in the cloning of a pet3.In spite of their differences on the problem of cloning, it seems that ____.A. all pet owners love their pets very muchB. all pet owners try to go against the natural law of life and deathC. people who support cloning love their pets moreD. people who dislike cloning love their pets more4.From what Gary Kowalski says, we can know that he ____.A. has never thought about the problem of cloningB. is going to write another book on petsC. is in favor of the idea of cloning petsD. is all against the cloning of pets5.What is the key question at the heart of the problem of cloning pets?A. Can cloning make the pain one suffers less when a pet dies?B. Can pet owners afford the cost of cloning?C. Does cloning go against the law of nature?D. How reliably does cloning produce an exact copy of one’s pet?9,How can you find out what is going on inside a person’s body without opening the patient up? Regular X-ray can show a lot. CAT scans (扫描) can show even more. They can give a three-dimensional (三维的) view of body organs (器官).What is CAT scan? CAT stands for Computerized Axial Topography (层面X线照相术). It is a special X-ray machine that obtains a 360 degree picture of a small area of a patient’s body.Doctors use X-rays to study and diagnose (discover the nature of) diseases and injuries within the body. X-rays can learn the position of foreign objects inside the body or take pictures of some inside organs---if special liquids are added to the organs to be X-rayed.A CAT scanner, however, uses a light of X-rays to give a cross-sectional (横断面的) view of a specific part of the body.A fine light of X-rays is scanned across the body and turned around the patient from many different positions. A computer collects the information from each position and produces a clearcross-sectional image on a screen. This image is then photographed for later use. Several cross-sections, taken one after another, can give clear “photo” of the entire body organs. The newest CAT scanners can even give clear pictures of active, moving organs,just as a fast action camera can “stop the action”, giving clear pictures of what appears unclear to the eye. And because of the 360-degree pictures, CAT scans show 3 dimensional views of organs in a manner that was only made known during an operation or an examination a dead patient.Too much X-ray can cause skin burns, cancer or other damage to the body. Yet CAT scans actually don’t expose (使暴露) the patient to more radiation (辐射) than regular X-rays do. CAT scans can also be done without injecting liquids into the patient so they are less risky than regular X-ray procedures.CAT scans provide accurate, detailed information. They can find such a thing as bleeding inside the brain. They are helping to save lives.1. What is NOT true of a CAT scan?A. It makes use of computer techniques.B. It gives clear images of active, moving body parts.C. It can stop the action of an organ for some time.D. It is safer than regular X-ray procedures.2. What is special about the latest CAT scanners?A. It helps to find out what is going on inside a person’s body without opening it up.B. It provides clear photos of moving organs.C. It won’t cause serious skin burns, cancer or other damage to the body.D. It can take 3-dimensional pictures of inside organs.3. It is implied but not directly stated in the passage that ____.A. CAT scanners can take photos of either the whole body or one part of itB. CAT scanners do not need the injection of liquidsC. CAT scanners are more expensive than regular X-ray proceduresD. the patient can be exposed to a slight amount of radiation safely4. The best title for the passage might be ____.A. The New Medical InventionB. Advantages and Disadvantages of CAT ScannersC. How to Avoid Damage to X-raysD. A New Type X-ray Machine to Save Lives10, AD.1Assistant needed at an outdoor swimming pool.
