The world’s richest man might seem to have it all, but Bill Gat es has one regret. The self-
made billionaire said he felt stupid for not knowing any foreign languages.
Speaking in his third Ask Me Anything question-and-
answer session for online forum Reddit(红迪
网), the Microsoft founder said that he wished he spoke Frenc h, Arabic or Chinese.
He said: “I took Latin and Greek in high school and got A’s an d I guess it helps my vocabulary. I keep hoping to get time to study one of these—
probably French because it is the easiest. I did Duolingo for a while but didn’t keep it up.”
Gates, who is worth $79.3 billion, praised Facebook founder
Mark Zuckerberg for surprising an audience in Beijing when h e spoke fluent Chinese. “Mark Zuckerberg amazingly learned Chinese and did a Q&A with Chinese students—unbelievable, isn’t it?” he said
This isn’t the first time for Gates to admit his regret over langu age. He also showed his habits at home and personal insights .
Last February, Gates said he likes to do the dishes himself—to his own special standards every night and also told the inte rviewer that his wife, Melinda, would likely want Samuel L. Ja ckson to play her husband in a biopic(传记片).
He also admitted that he would pick up a $100 bill if he found i t on the street.
As he took the top spot on Forbes(福布
斯)28th Annual Billionaires list last year for the fourth time, he said he is pretty basic when it comes to spending on clothes a nd food, but that he enjoys investing in shoes and racquets(球拍)when he plays tennis.
When asked a life lesson he had to learn the hard way, the bil lionaire said staying up too late is a habit he is still trying to br eak. “Don’t stay up too late even if the book is really exciting. You will regret it in the morning. Pam still working on this prob lem.” he said.

Chinese audiences seemed not to have been satisfied with th e third season of the highly anticipated food documentary A Bi te of China.
Even though the series has maintained high viewership rating s since its comeback last week, much higher than other progr ams aired at the same time, the ranking on Douban, a social networking website featuring films, literature and events, slipp ed to 4.2 out of 10, as of Tuesday, compared with 9.3 and 8.4 , respectively, for the first two seasons.
Picky viewers complain that some of the narration is not accur ate, while others pinpoint misleading content. At the same tim e, food blogger @barbara questioned whether it is appropriat e to give a close-up shot of the poisonous plant Nandina(南天竺)in a food program.
A Bite of China, which debuted in 2012, became hugely popul ar nationwide for its quality introduction of some rarely-known and mouth-
watering domestic cuisine. In the new show, however, watche rs are not satisfied with “irrelevant” food references, such as li psticks made of Chinese traditional medicine and martial arts master.
The first episode introduced a hand-
made iron frying pan from east China’s Shandong province, w hich prompted thousands of Chinese Internet users to buy on e from China’s leading e-
commerce website Tmall in the next few days. Sales of the pa n at “Zhensanhuan” surged 6,000 times compared with a year ago, according to Beijing Youth Daily.
In response to overwhelming criticism and questions, A Bite o f China production crew responded on Weibo that they seek i nnovation despite the risks following the first two phenomenal seasons.
“It is unavoidable to make comparisons with the first two, and some audiences may not accept the changes,” the crew said. “We explore the culture and civilization behind food, and give food a historic touch. That’s why we feature culinary(烹饪的)
tools, feast and rituals, as well as a healthy diet to show Chin ese wisdom and philosophy, which has not been shown in an y food programs before.”
8. Why does the passage mention Nandina?
A. Because some of the narration is not accurate.
B. Because it may be improper to give a close-
up shot of a poisonous plant.
C. Because it is misleading content.
D. Because it is not attractive at all to most picky viewers.
9. Which of the following elements leads to viewers’ dissatisfa ction with the new show?
A. some mouth-watering domestic cuisines
B. food-unrelated items
C. some rarely-known cuisines
D. the increasing sales of the pan at “Zhensanhuan”

According to new research from the University of Cambridge i
n England, sheep are able to recognize human faces from ph otographs.
The farm animals, who are social and have large brains, were previously known to be able to recognize one another, as wel l as familiar humans. However, their ability to recognize huma n faces from photos alone is novel.
The recent study, the results of which were published in the jo urnal Royal Society; Open Science, show the woolly creature s could be trained to recognize still images of human faces, in cluding those of former President Barack Obama and actress Emma Watson.
Initially, the sheep were trained to approach certain images by being given food rewards. Later, they were able to recognize the images for which they had been rewarded. The sheep cou ld even recognize images of faces shown at an angle, though their ability to do so declined by about 15 percent—
the same rate at which a human’s ability to perform the same task declines,
“Anyone who has spent time working with sheep will know tha t they are intelligent and individual animals who are able to re cognize their handlers.” said Professor Jenny Morton, who le d the Cambridge study. “We’ve shown with our study that she ep have advanced face-
recognition abilities, close to those of humans and monkeys.”Recognizing faces is one of his most important social skills for human beings, and some disorders of the brain, including Hu ntington’s disease, affect this ability.
“Sheep are long-
lived and have brains that are similar in size and complexity to those of some monkeys. That means they can be useful mod els to help us understand disorders of the brain, such as Hunti ngton’s disease that develop over a long time and affect cogni tive (认识
的) abilities. Our study gives us another way to monitor how th ese abilities change.” Morton said.
12. According to the new research, what’s unusual about she ep?
A. They have large brains.
B. They can recognize their owner s.
C. They can tell animals from humans.
D. They can recognize human faces from photographs.
13. How did the researchers train the sheep?
A. By giving food rewards.
B. By showing photos of famous p eople.
C. By guiding them to follow their handlers.
D. By showing photos of humans and monkeys by turns.
14. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. Sheep have a higher face-
recognition ability than monkeys.
B. The new discovery is of great benefit to the study of cognit ive ability changes.
C. The sheep’s face-
recognition ability may prevent some disorders of the brain.
D. The sheep’s face-
recognition ability stays the same when shown photos at any angle.
15. W hat’s the best title of the passage?
A. A Wonderful Scientist
B. The Life of Sheep
C. A New Discovery about Sheep
D. How Sheep Recognize Each Other

Charisma
Are leaders born or made? Many leaders throughout history—such as Gandhi, Churchill, Napoleon, and Martin Luther King —
seem to have a special quality that made them powerful and p ersuasive. We can identify that quality as charisma, but can w e explain it?
Charisma means a natural ability to attract other people and make them admire you. It is a complex mixture of social and e motional (情感
的) skills. ____16_____ Richard Wiseman, a famous psycholo gist, points out that there are three key qualities of a charisma tic person: They feel their own emotions strongly;they inspire strong emotions in other people; and they are unaffected by t he influences of other charismatic people.
You needn’ t worry if you don’ t have these qualities. ___17__ ___ Wiseman says that when you come upon someone who i s charismatic, you can copy his or her body language and faci al expressions without realizing it. This is called mirroring, and it works partly because people’ s behavior influences their e motions. _____18_____ He proves his point by giving the exa mple of smiling back at someone who smiled at you. Your smi ling back suggests that you accept the goodwill from the other person and hope to give it back to him.
___19_____ For example, if you stand up straight and raise yo ur chest, you are more likely to feel confident and inspire othe rs to feel confidence in you. Another expert says that the most
charismatic people are usually good listeners. They give othe rs the impression of being focused and modest.
Charisma plays a large part in success because it is linked to self-confidence. ___20____
One successful leadership coach points out that you need to come by your skills and techniques naturally, she warns—
if the personality you project is not real, you may come across as insincere.
A. This type of physical presence can be used to great effect.
B. Today there is growing evidence that charisma can be lear ned.
C. Charismatic persons should be active and sensitive to their surroundings.
D. It needs to be recognized that charisma is more than just b eing optimistic.
E. It helps to make strong personal connections and communi cate effectively with others.
F. But it is worth noting that charisma can’ t be a pretended a bility although it can be learned.
G. He adds you’ re unaware of picking up others’ gestures, bu t you know it makes you feel good.
