Dear Mr．Hush，
I have just learned over the radio that you feel as badly as I do about the way people use their cellphones．Very often in public place，people speak loudly on their cellphones，and we have to hearing about what is none of our business．So who cares about that？Not me!Why should I know life of people I don't even know？This is really nice that someone famous like you speak out for a quiet living space．
And it is even more wonderful to know about you yourself always talk quietly when using the cellphone in public．Thanks for not sharing that you are talking about．We had shared too much noise already!
A Person on Your Side．

1．"Mum，what does it mean when someone tells you that they have a skeleton（骨骼）in the closet（衣橱）？"Jessica asked．"A skeleton in the closet？"her mother paused thoughtfully．"Well，it's something that you would rather not have anyone else know about．For example，if in the past，someone in Dad's family had been arrested for stealing a horse，it would be a skeleton in his family's closet．He really wouldn't want any neighbor to know about it．"Why pick on my family？"Jessica's father said with anger．"Your family history isn't so good，you know．Wasn't your great-great-grandfather a prisoner who was transported to Australia for his crimes？""Yes，but people these days say that you are not a real Australian unless your ancestors arrived as prisoners．""Gosh，sorry I asked．I think I understand now，"Jessica cut in before things grew worse．
After dinner，the house was very quiet．Jessica's parents were still quite angry with each other．Her mother was ironing clothes and every now and then she glared at her husband，who hid behind his newspaper pretending to read．When she finished，she gathered the freshly pressed clothes in her arms and walked to Jessica's closet．Just as she opened the door and reached in to hang a skirt，a bony arm stuck out from the dark depths and a bundle of white bones fell to the floor．Jessica's mother sank in a faint （晕倒），waking only when Jessica put a cold，wet cloth on her forehead．She looked up to see the worried faces of her husband and daughter．
"What happened？Where am I？"she asked．"You just destroyed the school's skeleton，Mum，"explained Jessica．"I brought it home to help me with my health project．I meant to tell you．but it seemed that as soon as I mentioned skeletons and closets，it caused a problem between you and Dad．"Jessica looked in amazement as her parents began to laugh madly．"They're both crazy，"she thought．

8．"YOUR password has expired （过期），"a message said on my screen，with instructions for changing it．Coming up with a new code doesn't seem like a big deal，unless you work at my company，where we have to change it monthly，using at least one uppercase （大写的） character，one lowercase character，one symbol，and one number．Oh，the whole password can't be fewer than eight characters．And I can't use any of the same passwords I've used in the past three months．
Suddenly I was furious．What didn't make it any better was that I was deeply depressed after my recent divorce．Disbelief about what she had done to me was all I thought about every day．
I remembered a tip I'd heard from my former boss．He'd said："I'm going to use a password to change my life．"
I couldn't focus on getting things done in my current mood．There were clear signs of what I needed to do to get control of my life again．
My password became the sign．My password reminded me that I shouldn't let myself be a victim of my recent breakup and that I was strong enough to do something about it．
I made my password Forgive@h3r．
I had to type this several times a day．The simple action changed the way I looked at my ex-wife．That constant reminder led me to accept the way things had happened and find a new way of dealing with my depression．As the month wore on，I felt a slow healing begin to happen．By the time my server asked me to reset my password the following month，I felt free．
One month later，my dear Exchange server asked me yet again to reset my password．I thought about the next thing that I had to get done．
My password became Quit@smoking4ever．
I quit smoking overnight．
This password was a painful one to type during that month，but doing it helped me to yell at myself in my mind as I typed that statement．It motivated me to follow my monthly goal．
One month later，my password became Save4trip@thailand．
Guess where I went three months later：Thailand．
Seeing how these reminders helped to achieve my goals kept me motivated and excited．While it's sometimes difficult to come up with your next goal，keeping at it brings great results．

3．Everyone knows that death is natural，but do you have any idea of the process of dying？Modern scientists divide the process of dying into two phases---clinical or temporary death and biological death．Clinical death occurs when the vital organs，such as the heart or lungs，have ceased to function，but have not suffered permanent damage．The organism can still be revived（复活）．Biological death occurs when changes in the organism lead to the"breaking up"of vital cells and tissues．Death is then unchangeable and final．
Scientists have been seeking a way to prolong the period of clinical death so that the organism can remain alive before biological death occurs．The best method developed so far involves cooling of the organism，combined with narcotic sleep．By slowing down the body's metabolism（新陈代谢），cooling delays the processes leading to biological death．
To illustrate how this works，scientists performed an experiment on a six-year-old female monkey called Keta．The scientist put Keta to sleep with a narcotic．Then they surrounded her body with ice-bags and began checking her body temperature．When it had dropped to 28 degrees the scientists began draining blood from an artery．The monkey's blood pressure decreased and an hour later both the heart and breathing stopped：clinical death set in．For twenty minutes Keta remained in this state．Her temperature dropped to 22 degrees．At this point the scientists pumped blood into an artery in the direction of the heart and started artificial breathing．After two minutes Keta's heart became active once more．After fifteen minutes，spontaneous（自发的）breathing began，and after four hours Keta opened her eyes and lifted her head．After six hours，when the scientists tried to give her a penicillin injection，Keta seize d the syringe and ran with it around the room．Her behavior differed little from that of a healthy animal．
32．For a person who suffers from the clinical deathD
A．he is still very much alive．
B．he can not avoid final death．
C．his most important organs are damaged．
D．he still has the possibility of getting back to life．
33．Scientists try to make the time of clinical death longer in order toB
A．cool the organism．
B．delay the coming of biological death．
C．slow down the body's metabolism．
D．bring vital cells and tissues back to active life．
34．How did the scientists put Keta into clinical death？A
A．By putting her to sleep，lowering her temperature and draining her blood．
B．By surrounding her body with ice-bags and draining her blood．
C．By lowing her blood pressure and stopping her heart from beating．
D．By draining her blood，lowering her blood pressure and stopping her breathing．
35．All of the following indicate that the monkey has almost restored to her original physical state except the fact thatB
A．her heart beat again．
B．she rejected a penicillin injection．
C．she regained her normal breath．
D．she acted as lively as a healthy monkey．

10．Driving to the airport in the early morning，I felt excited．Although I was heading abroad for my first time alone，I felt cheerful and enthusiastic．I was spending the summer in Paris．
While looking for more interesting things to do besides sleeping and eating，I found programs for learning languages abroad，and jumped at the chance to study French in this city known for its art，fashion，food and culture．As I arrived at the airport where I would leave my family，I still felt only great happiness．I excitedly made my way through security，leaving my loved ones behind．
My connecting flight was in Frankfurt，Germany，14 hours from Denver．Sitting in a crowded plane watching bad movies couldn't dampen my excitement．When the woman next to me asked me where I was going，I happily answered and was pleased to note a tone of jealousy in her response．
But when I arrived in Frankfurt，fear and anxiety began to set in．Being in an enormous，busy building in a country where I couldn't speak the language was frightening，but as I found my way，I gained confidence．When I boarded the second plane and discovered that the flight was less than an hour，I was filled with excitement as I thought of how I would manage in a country with a new language．
When I stepped on the ground of Pairs for the first time，I was extremely happy and excited．I gathered my bags and joined the crowd of people waiting for friends and family．I quickly had my first experience trying to communicate in a language that I had only practiced in school．As I left the airport，I looked for familiar monuments I had read about，but the landscape looked very ordinary．Then，with one sharp turn，the Eiffel Tower came into view，and I was finally in Pairs．

8．What did you eat for lunch today？Did you choose this dish because it was healthy，cheap or because it was just very tasty？Are you a particular eater or an adventurous diner？
I love exploring trends in food．‘Fusion（融合） cuisine'is not for everybody．My Italian grandmother would turn her nose up in disgust at the thought of tandoori pizza with mango topping but this marriage of tastes is perfectly fine in the 21st century．Chef and food writer Ching-He Huang，who presented a series of Chinese Food for the BBC，is a fan of the movement．She says："Fusion has been happening for centuries，for as long as people have travelled，but with the Internet，and global travel，the exchange of ideas makes the process much faster．"
Wolfgang Puck is seen by many as one of the chefs who made‘fusion'elegant．He got his experience in this aspect in his native Vienna and made a name for himself when he opened his own restaurant in Los Angeles in the 1970s．This European dug into Asian cuisine and became one of the first in a long line of distinguished chefs．He said in an interview with the Wall Street Journal that initially he got negative responses from traditional American-Chinese restaurant owners but he is not bitter．"I believe authenticity is about evolution，not repeating your grandmoter's recipe．"he explains．"Cooking is like painting or writing a song．Just as there are only so many notes or colours．there are only so many flavours-it's how you combine them that sets you apart．"
My granny's cup of tea would be the Slow Food Movement．Founded by her countryman Carlo Petrini in the 1980s and still going strong，it seeks to preserve regional cuisine and the use of ingredients that are grown locally．Petrini wants to see farmers connected more directly with consumers．
All these trends give us food for thought．We might be wasting an exciting opportunity to wake up our taste buds when we swallow a sandwich at our desks．Tomorrow，why not find an exotic restaurant and enjoy a feast？You dress trendy so eat trendy!
