10．Hidden in our subconsciousness（潜意识）is a perfect mental picture．We see ourselves on a long trip that goes across the continent．We are traveling by train．Out the windows，we think in the passing scene of cars on nearby highways，of children waving at a crossing，of cattle feeding on a distant hillside，of smoke pouring from a power plant，or row upon row of corn and wheat，of flat lands and valleys，of mountains and rolling hills，of city skylines and village halls．
But uppermost in our minds is the final destination．On a certain day at a certain hour，we will pull into the station．Bands will be playing and flags waving．Once we get there，so many wonderful dreams will come true and the pieces of our lives will fit together like a completed jigsaw puzzle．How restlessly we pace the aisles，condemning（谴责）the minutes for loitering（虚度）-waiting，waiting，waiting for the station．
"When we reach the station，that will be it!"we cry．"When I'm 38．""When I buy a new 450SL Mercdes Benz!""When I put the last kid through college．""When I have paid off the debt!""When I get a promotion．""When I reach the age of rement，I shall live happily ever after!"
Sooner or later，we must realize there is no station，no one place to arrive at once and for all．The true joy of life is the trip．The station is only a dream．It constantly outdistances us．
"Relish（appreciate） the moment"is a good motto，actually it isn't the burdens of today that drive man mad．It is the regret over yesterday and the fear of tomorrow．Regret and fear are twin thieves who rob us of today．
So stop pacing the aisles and counting the miles．Instead，climb more mountains，eat more icecream，swim more rivers，watch more sunsets，laugh more and cry less．Life must be lived as we go along．Then the station will come soon enough．

On September 11，1958，Mum gave birth to Richard．After she brought him home from hospital，she put him in my lap，saying，"I promised you a gift，and here it is．"What an honor!I turned four a month earlier and none of my friends had such a baby doll of their own．I played with it day and night．I sang to it．I told it stories．I told it over and over how much I loved it!

The phone rang early on Christmas morning．Dad jumped out of bed to answer it．From my bedroom I heard him say，"What？He's all right？"He hung up and shouted upstairs．"The hospital said we can bring Richard home．"
"Thank God!"I heard Mum cry．
From the upstairs window，I watched my parents rush out to the car．I had never seen them so happy．And I was also full of joy．What a wonderful day!My baby doll would be home．I ran downstairs．My socks still hung there flat．But I knew they were not empty； they were filled with love!

15．Linden Wolbert on What It's Like to Be a Real-Life Mermaid
    Many little girls dream of swimming with or meeting a mermaid，but Linden Wolbert actually left her day job to become one．
"I have always been attracted to water，"she said in an interview．"Not just because of the animals that live in it，but because I feel so comfortable swimming in it．I just was always a swimmer and loved to be in the water．"
    After three years of working 9 to 5 as a residence director for Emerson College，"I was just daydreaming over every single lunch break about being in the water and among the fish，"she said．As an experienced swimmer and scuba diver，Wolbert also loves free diving，in which you dive as deep as you can and swim back up to the surface in a single breath-perfect training for a professional life as a mermaid．She made the change from office worker to mermaid in 2005 and hasn't looked back since．
  Though Wolbert，32，loved movies like"The Little Mermaid"and"Splash"as a kid，she says that she really spent most of her time watching the wildlife documentary（纪录片）．"My goal was to become an underwater wildlife documentary filmmaker like Jacques Cousteau，"she says-and she also works in the Los Angeles area as an advisor on underwater photo and video shoots．When special-effects artist Allan Holt asked her to help him with an underwater music video a few years ago，she mentioned that she'd always wanted an artificial mermaid tail but didn't know where to find one．
    With the help of advanced technology，Holt ended up making a 35-pound，6-foot-long tail for her，sealing a fish tail inside high-quality rubber，hand-making the scales（鱼鳞），and creating a detailed copy of Wolbert's body．It took seven months to complete and cost approximately $15，000．
    She also produces and stars in her own internet show，"The Mermaid Minute"，in which she teaches kids about the oceans and the creatures that live in them．
"I am a smart science mermaid．"she said．"And working with children is my favorite．"
49．Why did Linden become a mermaid？D
A．She wanted to do scientific research
B．She felt stressed in her office work．
C．She enjoyed feeding sea animals
D．She liked water and swimming．
50．What MOST helped Linden become a mermaid？B
A．Her love for mermaid films
B．Her experience in freediving．
C．Her knowledge of life under the sea

12．Count Me Out
Call me old-fashioned．Call me old．Call me what you want，but refuse to become part of this new Internet world．
I do not possess a computer at home or at the office．Actually，I stopped going to an office 35years ago，when all communications were done with a pen，a typewriter，or，if the matter was of world-shaking importance，over the telephone．Likewise，if you like something advertised in a newspaper or magazine，you visited the shop selling it at the given address，or you phoned，the number shown．Then you spoke to the fellow and asked for further details．
Tell me what you think of the following ad that appeared the other day in the newspaper．It was for a cure for cancer and this is what it said："Awareness is the key．Visit spfulford．com at the awareness site．"There was no address or telephone number for the site．So what do unfortunate people without a computer do it they are seeking a cure for their illness？
There are，I am told，certain advantages in having access to the Internet．You can，for example，send love messages across the world or even get married to someone that you meet online．This bit doesn't interest me； I have been happily married for 60years．There are，of course，other activities for Internet users besides finding love．They can pay bills，order groceries，or discuss with their doctors．
And this is by no means all．More amazing things are yet to come in the near future．I read a newspaper report recently that quoted Stephen Hawking，an important British scientist．"The complexity of a computer as it exists today is probably less than the brain of an earthworm，"he said．"But，as technology advances，computers will become more complex，and a time may come when the Internet may develop‘consciousness．'In other words，the Internet will be able to think，have feelings，and may well be able to act on its own．"
If Professor Hawking is right，I may change my attitude about conjurers．As I grow older each day，I would like one of those that not only thinks for me but also accepts responsibilities for all my mistakes．

60．What's the meaning of the title"Count Me Out"？D
A．Get me out of the Internet world．
B．Computers are trying to take control of life．
C．Modern technology pushes old people away．
D．Do not expect me to be a supporter of the Internet．
61．According to Paragraph 2，the author thinks computers areA．
A．unnecessary  B．convenient  C．expensive  D．advanced
62．What might the author like about the future computer？A
A．Taking blames．
B．Curing illnesses．
C．Delivering messages．
D．Responding to emotions．
9．Britain's most popular lie has been disclosed，with one in four people admitting using"sorry I had no signal"when returning a missed mobile phone call，a survey found．
Researchers found the average Briton tells on average four lies every day or almost 1500 every year．Almost one in six men admitted they were most likely to lie to their wife or girlfriend，on average at least twice a day．The most popular lie was saying you had no mobile phone signal，with one in four people admitting regularly using the little white lie．It usually came after they hit the"ignore"button when their mobile rang．
Three quarters of people think women are better liars．The research found 46 per cent of girls have been caught lying，compared to 58 of men．
The second most common fib（无关紧要的谎言） is"I haven't got any cash on me"when asked for money by tramps （流浪者），beggars and Big Issue sellers．"Nothing's wrong-I'm fine"came third followed by"You look lovely"and"Nice to see you"．
Modern technology turned out to have contributed to many lies with"I didn't get your text"in 18th，"Our server was down"in 20th and"My battery died"in 26th place．
Other lies to make the top ten included"I'll give you a ring"，"We're just good friends"and"We'll have to meet up soon"．"I'm on my way"and"No，your bum doesn't look big in that"completed the top ten．
Men tell the most fibs，coming out with five every day compared to women who lie just three times．
