It's not a new phenomenon, but have you noticed how many nouns are being used as verbs? We all use them, often without noticing what we're doing.

I was arranging to meet someone for dinner last week, and I said “I’ll pencil it in my diary”, and my friend said “You can ink it in”, meaning that it was a firm arrangement not a tentative one!

Many of these new verbs are linked to new technology. An obvious example is the word fax, which is a shortening of facsimile originally, an exact copy of a book or document. We all got used to sending and receiving faxes, and then soon started talking about faxing something and promising we'd fax it immediately. So, nouns turn into verbs in two easy stages. Then along came email, and we were soon all emailing each other madly. How did we do without it? I can hardly imagine life without my daily emails.

Email reminds me, of course， of my computer and its software, which has produced another couple of new verbs. On my computer I can bookmark those pages from the World Wide Web that I think I'll want to look at again, thus saving all the effort of remembering their addresses and calling them up from scratch. I can do the same thing on my PC, but there I don't bookmark; I favorite—coming from “favorite pages”, so the verb is derived from an adjective not a noun． I wasn’t really sure whether people said this，but someone told me recently that they had favorited a site I was looking for and so they could easily give me its address.

In the late 1980s I noticed that lots of my friends had acquired pagers, and kept saying things like “I’ll page you as soon as I know what time we’re meeting”. They couldn't say it to me, though; 1 refused to have one． So my children bought me a mobile phone, now known simply as a mobile and I had to learn yet more new verbs. I can message someone, that is, I can leave a message （either spoken or written）for them on their phone．Or I can text them, write a few words suggesting when and where to meet, for example. How long will it be before I can mobile them, that is, phone them using my mobile? I haven’t heard that verb yet, but I’m sure I will soon. Perhaps I’ll start using it myself!

Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.

I remember my dad teaching me the power of language at a very young age. Not only did he understand that specific 36 can affect our mental pictures, but he understood that words are a 37 programming factor in lifelong success.

One particularly unforgettable event occurred when I was eight. As a child, I was always climbing trees, poles and 38 around upside down from the rafters(屋椽) of our lake house. 39 , it came to no surprise for my dad to find me at the top of a 30-foot tree, swinging back and forth. My little eight-year-old 40 didn’t realize that the tree could break or I could get hurt. I just thought it was enjoyable to be up so high. My older cousin, Tammy, was also hanging in the same tree. Her mother also 41 us at exactly the same time as my dad did. About that time, a huge gust(一阵) of wind blew through the tree. I could hear the leaves rustle(嘎嘎地响) and feel the tree begin to sway. I remember my dad’s 42 over the wind, “Bart, Hold on tightly!”So I did.

The next thing I heard was Tammy’s mother yelling, “Tammy, don’t fall!” Tammy did 43 . My dad later explained to me that the mind has a very 44 time processing a negative image. It takes seventeen positive statements to offset(抵消) one negative statement. That means it might 45 seventeen compliments(贺词/道贺) to offset the emotional 46 of one criticism.

These are concepts that are especially useful in developing yourself. How many compliments do you give yourself daily and how often do you criticize yourself? Try to 47 yourself a lifetime of positive programming by complimenting yourself, or at least think about the kind of programming you are doing to yourself on a daily basis. Remember: try to make positive self-talk a daily practice and you will succeed some day.

－Tom failed his exam again.(丰台区)

－But what did you_______? He had never been working hard.

A.think B.expect C.consider D.imagine

Imagine you’re at a party full of strangers.You’re nervous.Who are these people?How do you start a conversation?Fortunately,you’ve got a thing that sends out energy at tiny chips in everyone’s name tag(标签).The chips send back name,job,hobbies,and the time available for meeting—whatever.Making new friends becomes simple.

This hasn’t quite happened in real life.But the world is already experiencing a revolution using RFID technology.

An RFID tag with a tiny chip can be fixed in a product,under your pet’s skin,even under your own skin.Passive RFID tags have no energy source—batteries because they do not need it.The energy comes from the reader,a scanning device(装置),that sends out energy(for example,radio waves) that starts up the tag immediately.

Such a tag carries information specific to that object,and the data can be updated.Already,RFID technology is used for recongnizing each car or truck on the road and it might appear in your passport.Doctors can put a tiny chip under the skin that will help locate and obtain a patient’s medical records.At a nightclub in Paris or in New York the same chip gets you into the VIP(very important person) section and pays for the bill with the wave of an arm.

Take a step back:10 or 12 years ago,you would have heard about the coming age of computing.One example always seemed to surface:Your refrigerator would know when you needed to buy more milk.The concept was that computer chips could be put everywhere and send information in a smart network that would make ordinary life simpler.

RFID tags are a small part of this phenomenon.“The world is going to be a loosely coupled set of individual small devices,connected wirelessly,”predicts Dr.J.Reich.Human right supporters are nervous about the possibilities of such technology.It goes too far tracking school kids through RFID tags,they say.We imagine a world in which a beer company could find out not only when you bought a beer but also when you drank it.And how many beers.Accompanied by how many biscuits.

When Marconi invented radio,he thought it would be used for ship-to-shore communication,not for pop music.Who knows how RFID and related technologies will be used in the future.Here’s a wild guess:Not for buying milk.

3.Passive RFID tags chiefly consist of ______.

A.scanning devices

4.Why are some people worried about RFID technology?

A.Because children will be tracked by strangers.

B.Because market competition will become more fierce.

C.Because their private lives will be greatly affected.

D.Because customers will be forced to buy more products.

A.will not be used for such matters as buying milk

B.will be widely used,including for buying milk
