"I was quite（67）impressed（impress）by the jaw-dropping scene（68）wherethe cash hidden on a giant wall was found in a low-level official's house．It is a bribe（行贿）he's accepted which is worth 230 million yuan （about 33 million U．S．dollars"，said Eric Ivarsen from Norway，a master's student （69）majoring（major）in the public management and social development at the University of Chinese Academy of Science．

11．Scientists study the natural world by using"scientific method"．When a scientist observes some phenomenon in nature，he develops an idea，called a theory or hypothesis （假设），about what is happening．Then he does an experiment to test his theory．If the results are as expected，then the experiment proves the hypothesis which makes it more likely that the theory is correct．If the experiment fails and the results are not as expected，then the scientist must come up with a new theory that he can test．
   In ancient times great thinkers came up with complicated theories to explain nature，but they did not always prove them by experiment．For example，the great Greek thinker Aristotle，had a theory that heavy objects would fall faster than light objects．People believed this until the scientist Galileo performed an experiment and found it was wrong．
    Here's an experiment that you can use to prove or disprove a common-sense theory：
    Step 1：Get an empty bottle with a small neck．A diameter （直径） of 1/2 inch should be ideal．
    Step 2：Cut a sheet of paper to a square 5 inches on each si de．
    Step 3：Crumple （压皱） the paper into a tight wad （块状物）．
    Step 4：Lay the bottle on its side and place the paper so it lies loosely in the neck of the bottle．
    Construct a theory about what will happen if you put your mouth about a half inch from the neck of the bottle and blow hard towards it．A common-sense theory might be that the wad would be blown into the bottle by the force of the breath．Now do your experiment to see what really happens．
    If your theory was that the wad would be blown by the force of the air into the bottle，the experiment gave you unexpected results．In most cases the wad is blown out of the neck of the bottle in the opposite direction．A new theory might be that the air being blown into the bottle creates a whirlwind （旋风） of air currents （气流） in the closed space which push the wad out．
29．The writer mentions Aristotle's theory to showD．
A．he was a greater thinker in ancient times
B．he was less successful than Galileo
C．objects of different weights fall at the same speed
D．experiments are necessary to support theories
30．According to the passage，what is not required in the four-step experiment？A
A．A pair of scissors．
B．A piece of paper．
C．A bottle．
D．A strong breath．
31．What's the best title for the passage？D
A．Come to Nature with Scientists          
B．Make up a New Theory
C．Experiment with Breath in a Bottle      
D．Watch Out for Common Sense．
8．This is the season for giving．Looking to get in touch with your generous side？Learn these four habits of truly thoughtful gift givers．
1．（36）A   Considerate gift giving is as much about planning as it is about how well you know the person．Take time to think about his or her personality and interests to figure out how he or she will get the most value．
2．They don't focus on cost．
The practice of thoughtful giving offers a wealth of benefits，but that doesn't mean givers should focus on expensive gifts．（37）DIt seems that having more cash could actually reduce compassion（同情）．And isn't compassion what this time of year is all about？So don't take it too hard if you don't have a lot to spend．（38）B
3．They make gifts personal．
Gifting is an opportunity to let a person know how much you appreciate and love him，and show how well you know him．（39）GBook a massage （按摩），take them to a wine tasting event，or get a couple of tickets to a concert or show．If you're buying for a parent，taking their kids for an evening could be the best gift of all．
4．They think about the presentation．（40）ESee what you have around your house to customize packaging．You can use pretty towels to cover something like a bottle of wine．You can also tie on a decoration that fits the theme of your gift．
A．They plan ahead．
B．Instead，get creative．
C．They enjoy giving more than receiving．
D．In fact，thoughtful gift givers don't concentrate on the cost of presents．
E．Thoughtful gift givers pay attention to detail，including how their gifts are packaged．
F．Make a list of your ideas ahead of time to make sure you find the perfect fit for everyone．
G．If you're buying for someone who seems to have everything，consider gifting an experience．
