Even with the larger display，iphone 5 is the thinnest iphone we ever built．To achieve the design this tall，we have to look at it and completely redesign the internal architecture．It's 18% thinner and 79.5% taller than the previous iphone．
It makes everything you do on iPhone 5 feels easier and just move of your arm away．No more hidden menus，no confusing gestures．Everything is right at your fingertips．
The panorama feature（全景功能） is simply wonderful．The ultra HD widescreen display let you get your entire shot in a single snap．You can also use your iPhone 5's innovative design for image stabilization．

15．Birds Can"Read"Human Gaze
We all know that people sometimes change their behavior when someone is looking their way．Now，a new study reported online on April 2nd in Current Biology shows that jackdaws-birds related to crows with eyes that appear similar to human eyes-can do the same．
"Jackdaws seem to recognize the eye's role in visual perception，or at the very least they are extremely sensitive to the way that human eyes are oriented（朝向），"said Auguste von Bayern，formerly of the University of Cambridge and now at the University of Oxford．
When presented with a preferred food，hand-raised jackdaws took significantly longer to get the reward when a person was directing his eyes towards the food than when he was looking away，according to the research team led by Nathan Emery of the University of Cambridge and Queen Mary University of London．The birds hesitated only when the person was unfamiliar and thus potentially threatening．
In addition，the birds were able to interpret human communicative gestures，such as gaze alternation and pointing，to help them find hidden food，they found．The birds were unsuccessful in using unmoving cues，including eye gaze or head orientation．
Unlike most birds，jackdaws'eyes have a dark pupil surrounded by a silvery white iris．The researchers said they believe jackdaws are probably sensitive to human eyes because，as in humans，eyes are an important means of communication for them．The hand-raised birds examined in the study may be even better than wild jackdaws at attending to human gaze and responding to the gestures of the people who have raised them．
The findings are particularly notable given that most other species investigated so far，including our closest relatives the chimpanzee and"man's best friend，"the dog，are not particularly sensitive to eye orientation and eye gaze，von Bayern said．Rather，she continued，chimps and dogs seem to rely on other cues such as head or body orientation in determining the looking direction of others．The results suggest that birds may deserve more respect for their mental abilities．
"We may have understated the psychological world of birds，"von Bayern said．"Jackdaws，among many other birds，form pair ties for life and need to have much in common and work together with their partner，which requires an efficient way of communicating and sensitivity to their partner's viewpoint．"

67．A hand-raised jackdaw hesitates to take a preferred food when the feederD．
A．is looking away from the food
B．holds the food in his hand
C．is looking at the food
D．is unfamiliar to the bird
68．According to the researchers，jackdaws can notice human eye orientation probably becauseA．
A．like humans，they also use eyes to communicate
B．they are far more intelligent than other birds
C．they are mostly hand-raised by humans
D．their eyes also have a dark pupil
69．Why does the author refer to chimpanzees and dogs？B
A．To suggest that they are much better at interpreting gaze alternation．
B．To reflect how unique jackdaws are in being able to notice gaze orientation．
C．To show that they communicate more frequently with humans than jackdaws．
D．To make clear that they rely on other means in determining people's intention．
70．What does the research finding uggest？B
A．Not all jackdaws are good at attending to human gaze．
B．We may have understated jackdaws'mental abilities．
C．We know embarrassingly less about birds than we assume．
D．The closer we communicate with animals，the better we understand them．
16．Hi，Nancy！Thank you for writing to me．I enjoy getting letters from students in China and I'll be happy to exchange letters with you．
The first thing I want to tell you is that if the boys are calling you names it is their fault，not yours．Boys，at your age，are different from girls．They are trying to prove that they are manly and they often do this by choosing someone who can't really fight back．This is，of course，wrong but it happens and it is generally referred to as bullying．In general，the boys know they are bigger and stronger than you are，so they can make fun of you and make you cry and then laugh about it．If you let them see that they are hurting you，they will only do it more．It isn't that they want to hurt you； they simply want to make themselves feel superior．It's stupid but it is very common．
The best way of getting the boys to stop calling you names is to simply ignore them，knowing that the names can't hurt you and that the boys are being stupid．If you can laugh at them，they will get tired of trying to make you cry．Then they will give up and begin to notice you as a young woman．I suspect some of them actually like you and are laughing at you just to get your attention．Again，it's stupid but it happens．In reality，you can control this situation by not letting them see you getting hurt．Laugh at them，tell them they are acting like children and they should grow up and then walk away with your head held high．
One more thing，Nancy．It is very important that you stop hurting yourself．If someone else hurts you it is bad enough but you shouldn't make it worse by then hurting yourself．Even sticking a pen into your finger can cause an infection and give you a lot of trouble and besides，it hurts．The next time you are frustrated by a bunch of stupid boys，write to me．You and I can talk about anything you like，about China，about Canada，about travel，anything．Having a conversation with me is better than sticking holes in your fingers，as least I hope it is．
I wish you all the best and I hope to hear from you again soon．If you get a chance，please send me your picture．
Best wishes．
Brad

13．Dear Dad，
Today I was at the shopping mall and I spent a lot of time reading the Father's Day cards．They all had a special message that in some way or another reflected how I feel about you．Yet as I selected and read，it occurred to me that not a single card said what I really want to say to you．
You'll soon be 84 years old，Dad，and you and I will have had 55 Father's Days together．I haven't always been with you on Father's Day but I've always been with you in my heart．
You know，Dad，there was a time when we were separated by the generation gap．You stood on one side of the Great Divide and I on the other．
The Father-Daughter Duel shifted into high gear（档位）when you taught me to drive the old Dodge and I decided I would drive the 54 Chevy（雪佛兰） whether you liked it or not．The police officer who sent me home after you reported the Chevy stolen didn't have much tolerance（容忍） for a stubborn 16-year-old girl，while you were so tolerant about it，Dad，and I think that was probably what made it the worst night of my life．
Our relationship picked up when I married a man you liked，and things really turned around when we began making babies．Somewhere along the line，the generation gap disappeared．I suppose I saw us and our relationship as aging together，rather like a fine wine．
But the strangest thing happened last week．I was at a stop sign and I watched as you turned the corner in your car．It didn't immediately occur to me that it was you because the man driving looked so elderly and weak behind the wheel of that huge car．It was rather like a slap（打） in the face delivered from out of nowhere．Perhaps I saw your age for the first time that day．
I guess what I'm trying to say，Dad，is what every son and daughter wants to say to their Dad today．Honoring a father on Father's Day is about respect and sharing and acceptance and tolerance and giving and taking．It's about loving someone more than words can say，and it's my wish that it never had to end．
I love you，Dad．
Love，

10．Compassion is a desire within us to help others．With effort，we can translate compassion into action．An experience last weekend showed me this is true，I work part-time in a supermarket across from a building for the elderly．These old people are our main customers，and it's not hard to lose patience over their slowness．But last Sunday，one aged gentleman appeared to teach me a valuable lesson．This untidy man walked up to my register（收款机）with a box of biscuits．He said he was out of cash，had just moved into his room，and had nothing in his cupboards．He asked if we could let him have the food on trust．He promised to repay me the next day．
I couldn't help staring at him，I wondered what kind of person he had been ten or twenty years before，and what he would be like if luck had gone his way．I had a hurt in my heart for this kind of human soul，all alone in the world，I told him that I was sorry，but store rules didn't allow me to do so．I felt stupid and unkind saying this，but I valued my job．
Just then，another man，standing behind the first，spoke up．If anything，he looked more pitiable．"Charge it to me"was all he said．
What I had been feeling was pity．Pity is soft and safe and easy．Compassion，on the other hand，is caring in action．I thanked the second man but told him that was not allowed either，then I reached into my pocket and paid for the biscuits myself．I reached into my pocket because these two men had reached into my heart and taught me compassion．

17．The sky was completely dark，the house was creaking（吱吱响），and I still had four hours until my parents got home．Locked in my parents'room，I turned on the TV at full volume so I wouldn't hear the creaking house．
I barely heard the phone ring．I picked it up and said，"Hello…hello..？"but there was no response．I knew someone was on the other end．Finally，I hung up．A few minutes later，the phone rang again； still no one was there．I became more frightened as time passed； the same person called five more times．
At this point I didn't bother picking up，but the ringing continued．To get my mind off this caller，I called my friend．She told me not to worry and to turn the phone off．As we talked，I heard someone pull into the driveway．When I peeked out （探出） of the window，I saw an unfamiliar car．
Thirty minutes passed and the car was still in my driveway．It drove up and down the driveway．My friend told me to call the police，but I refused．
Soon the phone calls started again．I heard noises in the background，but I couldn't tell what they were．I really didn't want that person to get out of the car and start toward the house．If they did，I didn't know what I'd do．None of the doors were locked，and I would have no way of protecting myself．The only thing I could do was hide，which wasn't a very good plan．
At this point I was considering calling the police，but my friend offered to drive by．"Maybe if they see me pull in，they will leave，"she suggested．By the time she arrived，the car had left．The phone rang again and I picked up，thinking it might be my friend．Someone on the other end said，"Bye-bye．"
