AIt was a physical class.But it was nothing like previous ones —the class was “attended” by over 60million students across China, and the teacher was not even on the planet: she was 340 kilometers above the earth.“Hello, everyone.I’m Wang Yaping.I’ll host your lecture today.” Smiling to the camera, Wang, China’s second female astronaut, started her video class on June 20 on board the Tiangong-1 space station.To show how Newton’s Laws work in space, Wang and her fellow astronauts used simple items like balls and spinning tops.The highlight of the lecture was when Wang made a film of water using a metal ring, something that only happens in zero gravity, where the surface tension(张力)of water is much higher than it is on the earth.She then took it a step further by pouring more water onto the film and turning it into a water ball, leaving the audience amazed by what they saw.The 40-minute lesson seemed to have passed too quickly for students to see enough of those magical experiments.But sending stuff into space is really expensive.According to The Beijing Times, every kilogram launched into space cost 20,000 dollars.The experimental items taken this time were all strictly selected and weighed about 2.9 kilograms in total.This adds up to quite a large price tag.The organizers of the event also had to consider the time of day: the communication signal between the earth and Tiangong-1 was best during that specific 40 minutes, when the spacecraft was flying within the coverage of all of the ground-based testing stations.1.Why is the class different from a common one?A.Because it took 40 minutes.B.Because over 60 million students across the world attended it.C.Because the teacher was on the planet.D.Because the lecturer was in space.2.One of the experiments shows .A.object motion under weight conditions B.laws of physics under weightless conditions C.laws of physics under weight conditions D.how Newton’s Laws work on the earth 3.Which phrase can best replace the underlined words in the passage?A.took a photo of water.B.recorded moving pictures of water.C.made a thin layer of water.D.all the above.4.Which of the following statements can be the best title of the passage?A.Teaching from the Sky.B.Teaching on Physics.C.Teaching Experiments.D.Teaching by an Astronaut.BDiscover Artistic Talents across the CountryRedtory, GuangzhouRedtory, established in 2009, is a spacious art district often referred to as Guangzhou’s 798.Made up of more than 30 old halls, mostly buildings of red brick, the place was originally built in 1956 as Chinese

damaged Chevrolet Malibu Sunday afternoon in a County near Camden New Jersey, at the bottom of an embankment (路堤)off a highway, according to authorities.Her car, turned upside down, was spotted by a passer-by who had stopped to view scenery and noticed something shining and what looked like a body, authorities said.When emergency responders arrived, they found Broomstick alive inside her severely damaged car.The vehicle rested upside down after flying 120 feet off the highway and rolling an additional 200 feet into an aspen woods.“The crash alone would have killed her,” N ew Jersey State Trooper Dean Enoch said.“It's surprising that she survived the crash at all, and then to be down there for that amount of days without food or water.”Earlier Monday, the family released a statement at the hospital thanking emergency responders who rushed Broomstick to the hospital and to the man who found her and notified authorities.“We sincerely appreciate all the thoughts, prayers and kind gestures from the community during such a hard time for our family,” the statement read.“While we're hopeful of her prognosis(愈后), Camilla was seriously injured and with multiple internal and external injuries.Later this afternoon Camilla will be undergoing surgery here to amputate(截肢)both of her feet.Doctors were not able to save her feet due to the serious injuries.Camilla is in critical but stable condition at this time and has a very long road ahead.”In the statement, family members mentioned reports that Broomstick wrote a request for help on an umbrella she pushed out the car window.“We cannot comment on that right now because we have not seen the umbrella,” the statement said.Family members also asked that the public respect their privacy.8.Who found the severely damaged car?A.The authorities.B.A passer-by.C.Emergency responders.D.Her families.9.Where was the damaged car when it was found?A.200 feet from the high way.B.120 feet from the high way.C.220 feet from the high way.D.320 feet from the high way.10.What can we know from the passage ?A.Camilla Broomstick was lucky to survive.B.Camilla Broomstick had a strong will.C.Camilla Broomstick had a good body.D.Camilla Broomstick was bad in driving.11.What is implied in the last two paragraphs?A.Broomstick’s family are grateful for the doctors.B.Broomstick’s family are not sure about the umbrella.C.Broomstick’s family are worried about her legs.D.Broomstick’s family are not willing to be disturbed.DIf you put a buzzard(秃鹰)in a pen(围栏)six to eight feet square and entirely open at the top, the bird, in spite of its ability to fly, will be a prisoner.The reason is that a buzzard always begins a flight from the ground with a run of ten to twelve feet.Without space to run, it will not even attempt to fly, but remain a prisoner for life in a small prison with no top.The ordinary bat that flies around at night, a remarkably nimble creature in the air, cannot take off from a level place.If it is placed on the floor or flat ground, all it can do is to shuffle about helplessly and, no doubt, painfully, until it reaches some slight height from which it can throw itself into the air.Then, at once, it takes off like a flash.A bumblebee (大黄蜂), if dropped into an open tumbler(平底玻璃杯), will be there until it dies, unless it is taken out.It never sees the means of escape at the top, but insists on trying to find some way out through the sides near the bottom.It will seek a way where none exists until it completely destroys itself.In many ways, there are lots of people like the buzzard, the bat and the bumblebee.They are struggling about with all their problems and frustrations, not realizing that the answer is right there above them.12.Why does a buzzard choose to stay in a pen?A.Because it is safe to live there.B.Because it gets used to living there.C.Because it cannot take off within an limited area.D.Because it lost its ability to fly.13.The underlined word in the second paragraph probably means “.”A.to run slowly B.to move slowly C.to pace slowly D.to fly slowly14.A bumblebee will completely destroy itself for .A.it does not look for a way out above B.it is dropped into an open cageC.it does not try to find a way to escape D.it hurts itself while flying15.In which way are many people similar to a buzzard, an ordinary bat and a bumblebee?A.They are overcoming all their problems and frustrations.B.They are all content with the things as they are.C.They choose to give in to problems and frustrations.D.They do not seek new ways to deal with difficulties.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

2015年云南省第二次高中毕业生复习统一检测英语第I卷第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题:每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AIn 1992, I had just launched a new business called Video News International.It was the world's first video journalist network. The idea was to cover news and sell the service to news organizations.One day, a young intern (实习生) who was working for us named Anthony Lappe pulled me aside."There is something you have to see," he told me. "Comcast is doing this really cool thing.""What?""The Internet," he said. "It's going to be really big."Anthony later introduced me to the head of the Internet project."We are looking for content to put on our network here," the guy said to me.Well, I said I had lots of content to offer.The guy's eyes lit up. "Cool," he said. "We would like to put it on our network."Well, I was always looking for new clients."What are you going to pay?" I asked.He said that they could not pay anything for the content, but they would set up a URL for me."What's that?" I asked."It's kind of like your address on the web.""What would I do with this URL thing?""Well, it could be your business.""I don't see how it is a business, and there's not even any advertising," I cleverly replied."Not yet," he said. "But one day there might be."I thought about it for two seconds."Naah..." I said. "I've got bigger fish to fry. I've got to be going now. Maybe we can cooperate next time."And I walked out.Idiot!Well, that Internet thing turned out to be so much bigger than I had thought. I wish I had never made such a mistake. Sorry Anthony. You were right.1. The head of the Internet project expected the author to _______.A. become a user of their productB. put advertisements on their webC. provide video news for their networkD. get an email address from the Internet2. The guy's offer was rejected because the author ______A. didn't think it a good dealB. was unwilling to trust a strangerC. was too occupied to start a new businessD. was worried about the safety of e-business3. What does the underlined sentence mean?A. I don't believe your words.B. I ought to cook dinner now.C. I need to get more payment.D. I have something more important to do.4. Which of the following can be the best title for this text?A. Power of New TechnologyB. Never Too Old to LearnC. My Biggest Mistake EverD. Building a Business PartnershipBIf your job requires a lot of sitting, you could be putting your health at danger.The American Journal of Epidemiology (流行病学) did a study in 2010 on the correlation (相互联系) between sitting and an individual's physical health. In the study, 53,440 working men and 69,776 working women were surveyed on their time spent sitting. The subjects were all disease free when employed. The researchers identified 11,307 deaths in men and 7,923 deaths in women during the 14-year follow-up.The findings: Women who reported sitting for more than six hours per day had an approximately 40 higher all-cause death rate than those who reported less than three hours a day, and men had an approximately 20 higher death rate.Well, now's a fine time to get this information. But why didn't they tell me this years ago? I would have planned on taking a more active job instead of the sedentary (坐着的) job of an editor.So what can you do if you have to work for a living at a job that requires a lot of sitting? Here are some ideas:Take frequent breaks. It is recommended that workers vary activities, change their position, and take short breaks every 20 minutes to rest muscles and increase blood circulation. Get a standing desk. Some studies have shown that working from an upright position may be better for health. The serious fitness people can even purchase a treadmill (跑步机) desk. It only goes about one mile per hour. Have a walking meeting. If your group is kind of small, going for a walk while discussing topics is a good alternative.5. According to the text, the study in 2010 ______.A. found men reporting shorter sitting time than womenB. surveyed more men than women on their daily sitting timeC. identified fewer deaths in men than in women during the 14-year follow-upD. discovered correlation between sitting and physical health in men and in women6. We can infer from the text that the author did not recommend ______.A. using a standing deskB. resting one's musclesC. quitting sedentary jobsD. taking a walk while discussing7. What does the underlined word "subjects" in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Things being discussed.B. People being studied.C. Areas of knowledge being learned.D. Objects being painted.8. What is the main idea of the text?A. Your job could be killing you.B. Working out leads to health risks.C. Long-time sitting is positively associated with health.D. A study on sitting time and physical health was completed.CWhen Lucy and Maria Aylmer tell people they are twins, disbelief is the response. The 18-year-olds from Gloucester, U.K. are two of the five children born to their Caucasian (白种人的) father and "half-Jamaican" mother. While their other siblings (brothers and sisters) have a blend (混合) of features from their parents who have different skin colours, Lucy and Maria are unique: Lucy has fair skin and red hair, while Maria has brown skin and dark hair."No one ever believes we are twins because I am white and Maria is black," Lucy said. "Even when we dress alike, we still don't look like sisters, let alone twins. When we meet friends for the first time they all refuse to believe we are twins and some have even made us produce our birth certificates to prove that we are really twins."Unlike identical (同卵的) twins, fraternal twins are bom from two separate eggs. The BBC reports that for a biracial (双人种的) couple expecting twins, there is about a 1 in 500 chance those twins will have different skin colors.The Aylmers are proud of their uniqueness."Now we have grown older, even though we still look so different, the bond between us is much stronger," Lucy said. "Now we are proud of the fact that we are each other's twin sister. Maria loves telling people at college that she has a white twin sister — and I'm very proud of having a black twin sister, too."9. Lucy and Maria are unique because _______.A. they are fraternal twinsB. their siblings are all blackC. they are hybrids of multi-racial parentsD. they are twins with different skin colours10. How do people usually react to the twins' physical appearances?A. They think it possible.B. They joke about them.C. They find it unbelievable.D. They regard them as lucky dogs.11. What can we learn about Maria from the text?A. She comes from Jamaica.B. She was born of biracial parents.C. She bears mainly features other father.D. She shares a birth certificate with her twin sister.DFrom Art to Zoo, the Smithsonian, the world's largest museum and research complex, has something to interest kids and students of all ages.Plan ahead online with The Official Kids Guide to the Smithsonian Institution –an interactive guidebook just for kids.The Last American Dinosaurs: Discovering a Lost WorldNovember 25, 2014 – 2018Museum: Natural History MuseumLocation: 2nd Floor, WestExplore how we learn about past ecosystems and organisms through the study of their fossils and find what goes into making a large-scale fossil exhibition.

AWhere is it possible to drive from Rome to Moscow, Madrid, Paris, Vienna, and Stockholm without going to Europe? The answer is in the state of Maine!Throughout the United States there are many towns and cities that have been named after not only European cities but other countries as well, such as China, Poland, Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. Just how many New World place names are recycled from the Old World names has never been tallied, but one researcher found forty-one Londons, fifty-six Berlins, twenty-four Dublins, thirty-two Athenses, and twenty-seven Moscows, among others!Reasons for European place names differ. Some were in memory of settlers’ former homes, others in honor of historic events. Founded in 1818 by John Coffee, Robert Beaty, John D. Carroll, and John Read, Athens is one of the oldest incorporated cities in the State of Alabama. The town was first called Athenson, and the name was then shortened to Athens, after the ancient city in Greece. More interestingly, some names were given by mistake. For instance, the people of Moscow, Kansas, wanted their city to follow the name of the explorer Moscoso. They shortened his name to Mosco, and an official in Washington, thinking the Kansans couldn't spell, added a ‘W’.1. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. In the state of Maine there are many different European cities.B. You can drive to many European cities from the state of Maine.C. All the settlers in the state of Maine came from Europe.D. The state of Maine has many cities named after European cities.2. The word “tallied” (Line 4, Paragraph 2) is closest in meaning to ________.A. builtB. believedC. addedD. visited3. What might have made the official in Washington change Mosco into Moscow?A. Moscow was a world-famous city name.B. He thought Moscoso would prefer Moscow.C. He believed Moscow was a far better name.D. He couldn't spell very well and made a mistake.4. The best title for the passage is ________.A. The Story of Moscow, KansasB. American Cities and Their NamesC. Interesting NamesD. Old World Place Names in AmericaBIn terms of tourism, Ohio is a place full of natural beauty and many vacation spots worth visiting.Coney Island—Fun Unlimited!Coney Island is an amusement park situated in the city of Cincinnati. It has the world’s largest recirculating pool, several diving boards, and an “in pool”slide . For basketball and volleyball lovers, there are special courts available. Apart from this, the park is equipped with 22 classic family and kiddie rides, boating facilities, a golf course, etc. Other amusement parks in Ohio include, Erieview Park, The Beach Waterpark, Memphis Kiddie Park, etc.Columbus—The Headquarters!Anyhow, your journey would start from Columbus, the capital city of the state! So spend some quality time roaming around in this beautiful city. Nightclubs, high quality restaurants, and shopping hubs constitute a major chunk of the city’s attractio ns.Rock and Roll Hall of Fame—For Music Lovers!If you are a die-hard music lover, then certainly this place wouldn’t disappoint you! Rock and Roll Hall of Fame was opened somewhere around in 1995, with an intention of celebrating the spirit of rock and roll music, and also studying it! Rock and Roll Hall of Fame offers exhibitions, music events, and also training programs on the subject. This is a perfect stop for everything on rock and roll music!Cleveland—High Class Experience!One of the oldest cities, Cleveland ranks among the top 20 metros of the United States. With Lake Erie serving as the most popular tourist attraction, Cleveland is also famous for landmarks such as Cavaliers’ Gund Arena, Playhouse Square and Indians’ Jacobs Field. Moreover, v ibrant nightlife, clubs, restaurants, large hotels and shopping festivals add to the touristic significance of this place.Lake Erie—The Perfect Holiday!With nearly 900 miles of shoreline, Lake Erie is one place you have to visit. You can enjoy numerous activities like fishing, swimming, boating, etc. It is also perfect for having a family picnic outing. One can even take a ferry to Kelleys Island where things like cycling and miniature golf can be enjoyed. Besides, it is the perfect place for those who are looking for some quiet and relaxing time.5. According to the passage, a basketball lover is most likely to go to.A. Coney IslandB. ColumbusC. ClevelandD. Kelleys Island6. What can we learn about Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?A. It was open to the public in 1990.B. It is an attraction for music lovers.C. It offers some shopping festivals.D. It provides no music training projects.7. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Lake Erie is perfect for family picnic outing.B. Lake Erie is ideal for quietness and relaxation.C. The capital of Ohio is situated in Cincinnati.D. Kelleys Island can be reached by boat.CA year ago August, Dave Fuss lost his job driving a truck for a small company in west Michigan. His wife, Gerrie, was still working in the local school cafeteria, but work for Dave was scarce, and the price of everything was rising. The Fusses were at risk of joining the millions of Americans who have lost their homes in recent years. Then Dave and Gerrie received a timely gift — $ 7,000, a legacy (遗产) from their neighbors Ish and Arlene Hatch, who died in an accident. “It really made a difference when we were going under financially.” says Dave.But the Fusses weren’t the only folks in Alto and the neighboring town of Lowell to receive unexpected legacy from the Hatches. Dozens of other families were touched by the Hatches’ generosity. In some cases, it was a few thousand dollars; in others, it was more than $100,000.It surprised nearly everyone that the Hatches had so much money, more than $3 million — they were an elderly couple who lived in an old house on what was left of the family farm.Children of the Great Depression, Ish and Arlene were known for their habit of saving. They thrived on (喜欢) comparison shopping and would routinely go from store to store,checking prices before making a new purchase.Through the years, the Hatches paid for local children to attend summer camp when their parents couldn’ t afford it. “Ish and Arlene never asked if you needed anything.” says their friend Sandy Van Weelden, “They could see things they could do to make you happier, and they would do them.”Even more extraordinary was that the Hatches had their farmland distributed. It was the Hat ches’ wish that their legacy — a legacy of kindness as much as one of dollars and cents —should enrich the whole community and last for generations to come.Neighbors helping neighbors —that was Ish and Arlene Hatch’ s story.8. According to the text, the Fusses ________.A. were employed by a truck companyB. were in financial difficultyC. worked in a school cafeteriaD. lost their home9. Why would the Hatches routinely go from store to store?A. They decided to open a store.B. They wanted to save money.C. They couldn’t afford expensive things.D. They wanted to buy gifts for local kids.10. According to Sandy Van Weelden, the Hatches were________.A. understandingB. optimisticC. childlikeD. curious11. What can we learn from the text?A. The community of Alto was poor.B. The summer camp was attractive to the parents.C. Sandy Van Weelden got a legacy from the Hatches.D. The Hatches would like the neighbors to follow their example.DThe trip to the United States opened my eyes to the fact that there are a lot of similarities as well as differences between American youth and French youth.The first difference is in appearance. Going around in the U.S., I found that American youth do not really care about their appearance. In the morning, they choose something in their closet and wear it with another thing, often of different colors and styles, without wondering whether their choices make them look strange. The reason behind this is that they don’t care what people look like, but are just interested in their ideas. I think it’s great, but it also causes problems. Since they don’t care about their appearance, they don’t really care about their weight. Often they get fat without realizing it.There are differences in relationsh ips too. When the American youth fall in love, they don’t really think of the future. Also, there are differences in the rules concerning behavior that is allowed. In some respects, the French are more accepting. For example, in America it is generally unacceptable to make physical display of love. Lovers, in theory, can’t kiss or hold each other everywhere they want. People think that not showing love in public places is a way to respect others. On the contrary, the French youth can do almost everything they want.With regard to other types of relationships, there are also big differences. Americans act differently from French people in front of unknown people. When an American girl, for example, arrives in front of people she has never met before, she will talk with them, trying to create a kind of bond between her and this new circle of people. The French girls will just think about rather than really do this kind of thing because they are too shy and lacking in self-confidence.To finish, I noticed that in American classes, when pupils want to say or ask something, they just do it. In general, they don’t really care how the others will judge them. In France, it’s not the same case. If somebody wants to ask something, he/she will think about it before speaking up. I appreciate the freedom in Americans’ behavior, ideas, and ways of expressing themselves.12. American young people _______.A. are just interested in people’s clothesB. show more interest in people’s ideasC. care more about their weightD. are more concerned about appearance13. When American youth fall in love with each other, they _________.A. will not hold each otherB. will rarely display their love in publicC. will always think about their futureD. will kiss wherever they like14. It can be inferred from the passage that French youth may think more about ______.A. their relationship’s futureB. their public imagesC. their physical displaysD. their lover’s ideas15. The passage is mainly about the______ between American youth and French youth.A. similaritiesB. friendshipC. differencesD. differences and the similarities第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

云南省2015届高三第一次高中毕业生复习统一检测英语试题(Word版本)

2015年云南省第一次高中毕业生复习统一检测英语第I卷第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题:每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AThere's a great article in the New York Times this week about the tradition of buying a coffee forsospeso, the name for "suspended a stranger at the same time that you buy your own. They call it caffè(暂留的) coffee" in its birthplace. In some cafes, folks in need may claim a suspended coffee and drink it without cost.No doubt the free coffee will be welcomed by people who love coffee but for one reason or another don't have the money to buy one. But I also like the opportunity it offers customers to become philanthropists (慈善家). Every time they order a coffee, they can give one to somebody in need.This is a tradition that began some 100 years ago in Naples, Italy. In Naples, as reported by the Times, people love this kind of giving:"To me, the philosophy of the suspended coffee is that you are happy today, and you give a coffee to the world, as a present." — Luigi Solito"It's a simple act of generosity: an act in which donors and recipients (接受者) never meet each other. The donor doesn't show off and the recipient doesn't have to show gratitude." —Laura Cozzolino"Coffee consumptions started earlier than the unification (统一) of Italy by more than 200 years, so the traditions around it are very ancient. In Naples, coffee is a world in itself, both culturally and socially." — Andrea IllyThe practice of buying suspended coffees has grown in popularity — with websites popping up and hundreds of cafes from Canada to Brazil to Hungary to the US offering the service.1. Who are suspended coffees intended for?A. Cafe goers.B. People who can't afford a coffee.B. Philanthropists. D. Coffee lovers who live in Naples.2. How can someone get a suspended coffee?A. He can ask for one in any cafe.B. He can apply for one on websites.C. He can buy one in a cafe offering the service.D. He can drink one in a cafe that has prepaid coffees.3. What does Laura Cozzolino think of buying suspended coffees?A. She thinks it is a great way of charity.B. She thinks it is a cheap gift to strangers.C. She thinks it is an ancient Italian custom.D. She thinks it is spreading widely in the world.4. The underlined words in Paragraph 1 are words of ______.A. FrenchB. Old EnglishC. ItalianD. American English。

AWhen I was 11, I threw a glance into Dad’s lunch box and made the unexpected discovery that my mother still showed her love towards my father. The evidence, a napkin resting on top of the sandwiches packed in wax paper, was certain “Love you!” she had written on the napkin. “Meat loaf for supper!”Mom penned all kinds of messages to Dad on those paper napkins, and he saved a whole pile of them. What embarrassed me as a kid has become a precious memory of my parents.It also started my own brand of lunch box notes. When my kids were young, I’d glue little drawings on their lunches. Lots of sketches (素描) of our dog, Max, along with smiling flowers. When they were teenagers, I’d copy words of wisdom from great people, Einstein, for example, or Bruce Springsteen. Then, my kids grew up making their own handwritten notes. And my husband writes me love not es on recycled paper, because he’s all about being green.Friends who know about my lunch box notes eagerly share stories of their own family traditions. So many focus on food. Maura’s mom always drew hearts on the shells of hard-boiled eggs. Melinda wrote messages on her kids’ bananas.We’re into the third generation of lunch box notes in our home. Whenever my 3-year-old grandson, Clayton, spends the night, he knows his lunch is going to have a napkin note from Grandma in the morning. Last week, I drew a p icture of me, waving widely and shouting his name. He took one look at it and screamed, “Where’s Grandpa?” I added a man in a clean shirt. “You forgot his tie,” he said. I quickly drew a line of stripes (条纹) down the front of the shirt. Clayton smiled. “Grandpa,” he whispered, running his fingers across the napkin. “It’s you!”21. When the author first saw Dad’s lunch box notes, she felt ______.A. movedB. nervousC. awkwardD. proud22. What did the author put in the lunch boxes when her kids were in their teens?A. Words of love.B. Famous words of wisdom.C. Pictures of their pet and flowers.D. Eggs painted with hearts.23. It can be inferred that ________.A. the author’s husband is an environmentalist.B. t he author’s children dislike making lunch box notes.C. the author’s grandson likes drawing pictures on napkins.D. the author’s friends all had their brand of lunch box notes.BApple SeedsCirculation (发行量): 1 Year, 9 IssuesCover Price: MYM 44.55Price For You: MYM 33.95Product Description: Apple Seeds is an award winning magazine filled with stories for kids aged from 7 to 9.

Better LifeC. Humor TimesD. News ChinaCI was shopping in the supermarket when I heard a young voice. “Mom, come here! There’s a lady here my size!” The mother rushed to her son; then she turned to me to apologize. I smiled and told her, “It’s okay.” Then talked t o the boy, “Hi, I’m Darry Kramer. How are you?” He studied me from head to toe, and asked, “Are you a little mommy?” “Yes, I have a son,” I answered. “Why are you so little?” he asked. “It’s the way I was born,” I said. “Some people are little. Some are tall. I’m just not going to grow any bigger.” After I answered his other questions, I shook the boy’s hand and left.My life as a little person is filled with stories like that. I enjoy talking to children and explaining why I look different from their parents.It takes only one glance to see my uniqueness. I stand three feet nine inches tall. I was born an achondroplasia dwarf (侏儒). Despite this, I did all the things other kids did when I was growing up.I didn’t real ize how short I was until I started school. Some kids joked on me, calling me names. Then I knew.I began to hate the first day of school each year. New students would always stare at me as I struggled to climb the school bus stairs.But I learned to smile and accept the fact that I was going to be noticed my whole life. I decided to make my uniqueness an advantage rather than a disadvantage. What I lacked in height, I made up for in personality.I’m 47 now, and the stares have not diminished as I’ve grown older. People are amazed when they see me driving. I try to keep a good attitude. When people are rude, I remind myself, “Look what else I have – a great family, nice friends.”It’s the children’s questions that make my life special. I enjoy answering their questions. My hope is that I will encourage them to accept their peers (a person of the same age, class, position, etc.), whatever size and shape they come in, and treat them with respect.28.

Those stories aroused feelings of awe (敬畏) and made the readers want to share this positive emotion with others.Besides science stories, readers were also found to be likely to share articles that were exciting or funny. “The more positive an article was, the more likely it was to be shared,” Berger wrote in his new book. “For example, stories about newcomers falling in love with New York City,” he writes, “tende d to be shared more than the death of a popular zookeeper.”But does all this good news actually make the audience feel better? Not necessarily.According to a study by researchers at Harvard University, people tend to say more positive things about themse lves when they’re talking to a bigger audience, rather than just one person, which helps explain all the perfect vacations that keep showing up on microblogs. This, researchers found, makes people think that life is unfair and that they’re less happy than their friends.But no worries. There’s a quick and easy way to relieve the depression you get from viewing other people’s seemingly perfect lives— turn on the television and watch the news. There is always someone doing worse than you are.32.
