www.88haoxue.com B．some favorable qualities to be a psychologist C．how to make yourself attractive to your listeners D．how to make a friend and be a friend 57．The words “ bring him out of his shell” in this passage most probably means ____. A．make him become active B．make him feel more nervous C．help him understand the question better D．help him listen intelligently 58．According to the passage, an important way in making friends is to ________. A．attract them           B．be attracted C．listen attentively             D．talk widely 59．The words “ Be alive to” in the last sentence of this passage most probably means________. A．be aware of                 B．keep with    C．deal with    D．be ignorant of B Do you sometimes argue about what seems to you to be a simple fact ? Do you argue whether it’s cold outdoors or whether the car in front of you is going faster than the speed limit ? If you get into such arguments, try to think about the story about the six blind men and the elephant．The first blind man who felt the elephant’s trunk said it was like a snake．The second who felt the elephant’s side said it was like a wall, while the third said it was like a spear as he touched the animal’s tusk．The fourth, who had hold of the elephant’s tail insisted that it was like a rope．The fifth man said it looked like a tree as he put his arm around one the elephant’s legs. The sixth, who was tall and got hold of the elephant’s ears, said it was like a huge fan. Each man’s idea of the animal came from his own experience．So if someone disagrees with you about a “simple fact”, it’s often because his experience in the matter is different from yours. To see how hard it is for even one person to make up his mind about a “simple fact”, try this simple experiment．Get three large bowls．Put ice water in one．Put hot water in the second．Put lukewarm water in the third．Now put your left hand in the ice water．Put your right hand in the hot water．After thirty seconds, put both hands in the lukewarm water．Your right hand will tell you the water is cold．Your left hand will tell you it’s hot ! 60．What makes people think about simple facts differently ? A．The fact that simple facts differ from one another B．The fact that people have different experience in the same simple fact C．The fact that people often disagree with one another D．The fact that it’s hard to make up one’s mind about simple facts 61．The writer’s advice is _______________. A．We should never think about simple facts B．We should never judge something with a one-sided view C．We should not agree about simple facts D．We must learn from the six blind men 62．After reading the last paragraph, we may think of __________. A．Newton’s law                    B．Galileo’s theory of falling objects C．Einstein’s theory of relativity        D．Marx’s On Capital (资本)

www.88haoxue.com C How should one invest a sum of money in these days of inflation(通货膨胀)? Left in a bank it will hardly keep its value, however high the interest rate．Only a brave man, or a very rich one, dares to buy and sell on the Stock Market (股市)．Today it seems that one of the best ways to protect your savings and even increase your wealth is to buy beautiful objects from the past．Here I am going to offer some advice on collecting antique (古董) clocks, which I personally consider are among the most interesting of antiques． I sometimes wonder what a being from another planet might report back about our way of life．“ The planet Earth is ruled by a mysterious creature that sits or stands in a room and makes a strange ticking sound．It has a face with twelve black marks and two hands．Men can do nothing without its permission, and it fastens its young round people’s wrists so that everywhere men go they are still under its control．This creature is the real master of Earth and men are its slaves.” Whether or not we are slaves of time today depends on our culture and personality, but it is believed that many years ago kings kept special slaves to tell the time．Certain men were very clever at measuring the time of day according to the beating of their own hearts．They were made to stand in a fixed place and every hour or so would shout the time．So it seems that the first clocks were human beings. However, men quickly found more convenient and reliable ways of telling the time．They learned to use the shadows cast by the sun．They marked the hours on candles, used sand in hour-glasses, and invented water-clocks．Indeed, any serious student of antique should spend as much time as possible visiting palaces, stately homes and museums to see some of the finest examples of clocks from the past. Antique clocks could be very expensive, but one of the joys of collecting clocks is that it is still possible to find quite cheap ones for your own home．After all, if you are going to be ruled by time, why not invest in an antique clock and perhaps make a future profit ? 63．According to the passage, collecting antique clocks___________. A．can hardly keep the value of your savings B．will cost much of your savings C．may increase your wealth D．needs your bravery 64．By quoting (引用) the remark (话) of a being from another planet, the author intends to ________________. A．suggest human beings are controlled by a clock B．describes why clocks can rule the planet Earth C．tell readers what clocks look like D．compare clocks to human beings 65．Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a way to measure the time ? A．Counting the beating of one’s own heart. B．Making use of candles, sand and water. C．Observing shadows cast by the sun. D．Keeping all the slaves busy day and night. 66．The underlined phrase stately homes in paragraph 4 means ____. A．state-owned houses      B．houses in very good condition C．grand houses open to the public     D．houses where statesmen meet regularly 67．The purpose of the passage is ________________. A．to introduce the culture of antique clocks B．to offer some advice on collecting antique clocks C．to compare different ways to make a future profit D．to explain convenient and reliable ways of telling time D
