分析 本文主要介绍世界上春天里的一些节日.比如,中国的春节,西方的狂欢节和复活节,日本的樱花节及这些节日的一些特色等.

解答 61.energetic 考查形容词.and是并列连词,它前后连接两个相同的语法成分,energetic和important都是形容词作定语.
62.lucky 考查形容词. money是名词,其前用形容词作定语.
63.and 考查连词.前后两个单句之间是并列关系,用连词but.  
64.which  考查定语从句.分析句子结构可知这是一个定语从句,先行词carnivals在从句中作主语,用关系代词which.
65.clothing 考查名词.根据句意:各种各样五颜六色的衣服.用clothing,意为"衣服",cloth意为"布,织物".
66.around/in 考查介词.根据句意:复活节是全世界基督徒的一个重要节日.用介词around/in.
67.the 考查冠词."the+形容词"表示一类人.
68.later 考查副词比较级.指日本的樱花节与狂欢节相比,稍晚些.用比较级later.
69.looks 考查主谓一致.主语The country是单数,谓语动词也应用单数形式looks.
70.to eat 考查动词不定式.此处动词不定式表示目的,作目的状语.

16.Talking to human-like devices can be great fun-just ask Siri to tell you a joke.But it muy also lead to problems.
A recent study by scientists from the University of Kansas in the US found that human-like devices keep people from seeking out normal human interaction when they feel lonely.
During a series of experiments,panicipants were asked to write about a time when they felt lonely.They also took part in an online game of"catch"against a computer program that was designed to"throw"the hall to other players more often,but participants believed they were playing with real people online.
Participants were then introduced to human-like products,including a vacuum cleaner (真空吸尘器) designed to appear as if it were smiling.They were also asked to think about their phone in human-like terms,considering questions like"how much does it help you?"
The results showed that the participants were happy with the comfort they got from the machines and didn't need to seek out normal human interaction.
Generally,when people feel socially excluded,they seek out other ways to reduce
the feeling of loneliness.Normal ways include increasing their number of social media friends or engaging in behaviors to seek out interaction with other people,according to Jenny Olson,assistant professor of marketing at KU.
But it wasn't all bad news,as the team found that there were limits to how far this effect would extend.
"As soon as we tell people we know that it looks like the vacuum cleaner is smiling,they seemed to realize it was a machine and not a person."Olson told Daily Mail."The effect goes away.This seems to be happening on a very subconscious level."
Researchers believe the results arc important for consumers to realize how these types of products could affect their social interaction with real people,especially because so many new products feature interactivity.
"lf someone notices they are talking more to Siri lately,maybe that has something to do with feeling lonely."Olson said."From that standpoint,it's important to be aware of it."
The study could also help companies design products that can increase the well-being of people who feel lonely,without sacrificing normal social interaction.
"Maybe ii is more about improving our current relationships."Olson said,"such as taking a break from screen time and focusing on developing your real personal connections."

3.The best mistake I ever made was when I was 24 years old and a senior at New York University (NYU).At the time,I was planning to get a law and business degree after graduation and wasn't even job hunting.
    One day,I walked into the student center looking to get a soda,but instead found a roomful of students wearing suits and ties and holding a stack of resumes (简历).Clearly,I had accidentally walked into a job fair.I was casually dressed and had a scarf on my head because I hadn't washed my hair that morning.I tried to walk across the hall when a man stopped me with his hand reached out."Hi,my name is Donny McKenthan.Would you like to work for IBM?"I replied,"Uh,no,thank you,I'm just getting something to drink from that machine over there."
    I ended up having a wonderful conversation with him,but I told him there was no way he could convince me.My course was set.I went out for dinner that night with some friends.When I mentioned my story,they couldn't believe I was foolish enough to turn down interviewing with this amazing company!I went home that night,dug out his card from the garbage bin and called him back.
    After a series of successful interviews,an IBM manager called me to extend an offer,which would be followed up in a few days in writing.When I asked what the salary was,he cryptically(含糊其辞)said 18,000.Inmymind,Ithought18,000 a year was low,given what I had been earning for part-time work paying my way through NYU.So I told him I thought I should earn more,and started to negotiate.He was surprised and explained that the starting salary for all trainees was set in store.
    The next day,I received the offer in the mail.As it turned out,I misunderstood the offer---I would earn $1,8000 a month.That was a great salary,so of course,I took the job.I never did tell my manager about my mistake,but a few months later he placed me in sales because I was the only trainee who had tried to negotiate a starting!That comedy of errors ended up being a wonderful 22-year career at IBM.
