One day a teacher was giving her young students a lesson on how the government works. She was trying to explain the principle of income tax (收入税).

“You see ,” she began , speaking slowly and carefully , “each person who works must pay part of his or her salary (薪水) to the government . If you make a high salary, your taxes are high. If you don’t make much money, your taxes are low .”

“Is that clear?” she asked. “Does everyone understand the meaning of income tax?” The students nodded.

Are there any questions?” she asked. The students shook their heads.

“Very good!” she said.” “Now, I would like you to take a piece of paper and write a short paragraph on the subject of income tax.”

Little Joey was a slow learner. He had lots of problems with spelling and grammar, but this time he at least seemed to understand the task.. He took his pen and after a few minutes, he handed the teacher the following composition:

Once I had a dog. His name was Tax. I opened the door and in come Tax.

HOW many of you have used rock, paper, scissors (RPS) as a “fair” way to settle something? If you think it is a game of chance, think again, according to scientists.

RPS is a game as popular in the East as it is in the West. The rules are the same: Two players make one of the three hand signs. To decide the winner, rock breaks scissors, scissors cut paper, and paper covers rock.

Many of us play with no game plan in mind. But researchers have worked out several winning patterns. The World Rock Paper Scissors Society holds tournaments (联赛) in Toronto, Canada. According to their data, players choose rock (35.4 percent) and paper (35 percent) more than scissors (29.6 percent).

If your opponent is a man or an angry person, it’s quite possible they will start the game with rock, researchers have found. If your opponent is a woman or a beginner, you should expect them to start with scissors.

Earlier this year, Chinese scientists asked 360 students to compete in a RPS tournament at Zhejiang University. Scientists found that winners tend to choose the same action they won with, while the loser tends to change to the next action in the order of rock, scissors, paper. This is called the “win-stay lose-change” strategy(策略). Humans use this strategy in many competitive situations.

Expert RPS players have many other techniques. Monica Martinez, 2008 winner of the World RPS Tournament, said that she read faces.“I didn’t worry about what I was going to do, I just did what I thought they were going to do,” she told The Telegraph. If your friends are similar experts, learn from Jonathan Monaco, winner of the 2009 USA RPS Tournament. He wears dark sunglasses to cover his expressions during the game.

Remember, the strategy for playing RPS depends on how skilled your opponent is. But if you’re looking for a quick, simple winning rule for a match, choose paper. Scissors is the least popular choice, and men favor rock. Both are reasons to choose paper.

1.What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?

A. The popularity of RPS games around the world.

B. The general rules of RPS games.

C. A game plan for RPS games.

D. The fairness of RPS games.

2.According to the article, researchers worked out some winning patterns for RPS games mainly by _______.

A. studying the rules of the game

B. analyzing game data

C. interviewing expert players

D. organizing major tournaments

3.Which of the following statements about Monica Martinez is TRUE according to the article?

A. She likes to use the same actions many times in a row when playing the game.

B. She usually follows the order of rock, scissors and paper when playing the game.

C. She is good at reading her opponent’s moves when playing the game.

D. She often wears dark sunglasses when playing the game.

4.We can infer from the last paragraph that _______.

A. scissors is the most popular choice of skilled RPS players

B. paper is a safer choice than rock and scissors for RPS players

C. beginners have barely any chance of winning against skilled RPS players

D. men are usually better at RPS games than women

 

Fear and its companion pain are two of the most useful things that men and animals possess, if they are properly used. If fire did not hurt when it burnt, children would play with it until their hands were burnt away. Similarly, if pain existed but fear didn’t, a child would burn himself or herself again and again, because fear would not warn himself or herself to keep away from the fire that had burnt himself or herself before. A really fearless soldier—and some do exist, is not a good soldier because he is soon killed; and a dead soldier is of no use to his army. Fear and pain are therefore two guards without which men and animals might soon die out.

In our first sentence we suggested that fear should be properly used. If, for example, you never go out of your house because of the danger of being knocked down and killed in the street by a car, you are letting fear rule you too much. Even in your house you are not absolutely safe: an aeroplane may crash on your house, or ants may eat away some of the beams in your roof so that the latter falls on you, or you may get cancer!

The important thing is not to let fear rule you, but instead to use fear as your servant and guide. Fear will warn you of dangers; then you have to decide what action to take.

In many cases, you can take quick and successful action to avoid the danger. For example, you see a car coming straight towards you. Fear warns you, you jump out of the way, and all is well.

In some cases, however, you decide that there is nothing that you can do to avoid the danger. For example, you can’t prevent an aeroplane crashing onto your house. In this case, fear has given you its warning; you have examined it and decided on your course of action, so fear of this particular danger is no longer of any use to you, and you have to try to overcome it.

1.Children would play with fire until their hands were burnt away if _________.

A. they were given no warning beforehand

B. they had never burnt themselves

C. they had no sense of pain

D. they were fearful of the fire

2.A really fearless soldier _____________.

A. is of great use to the army

B. is not a real soldier

C. is nothing but a dead soldier

D. easily gets killed in a battle

3.People sometimes succeed in timely avoiding the danger because _________.

A. they have gained experience

B. they jump out of the way in time

C. they are calm in the face of danger

D. they are warned of the danger by fear and take quick action

4.What's the writer's suggestion when the danger can't be avoided?

A. You have to try to overcome it.

B. Fear can really help you to run away.

C. Fear always helps you stay safe.

D. Fear is of great use to you.
