14.People who have lost the ability to understand or use words due to brain damage are called aphasics(失语症患者).Such patients can be extremely good at something else.From the changing expressions on speakers'faces and the tones of their voices,they can tell lies from truths.
Doctors studying the human brain have given a number of examples of this amazing power of aphasics.Some have even compared this power to that of a dog with an ability to find out the drugs hidden in the baggage.
Recently,scientists carried out tests to see if all that was said about aphasics was true.They studied a mixed group of people.Some were normal;others were aphasics.It was proved that the aphasics were far ahead of the normal people in recognizing false speeches-in most cases,the normal people were fooled by words,but the aphasics were not.
Some years ago,Dr.Oliver Sacks wrote in his book about his experiences with aphasics.He mentioned a particular case in a hospital.Some aphasics were watching the president giving a speech on TV.Since the president had been an actor earlier,making a good speech was no problem for him.He was trying to put his feelings into every word of his speech.
But his way of speaking had the opposite effect on the patients.They didn't seem to believe him.Instead,they burst into laughter.The aphasics knew that the president did not mean a word of what he was saying.He was lying!
Many doctors see aphasics as people who are not completely normal because they lack the ability to understand words.However,according to Dr.Sacks,they are more gifted than normal people.Normal people may get carried away by words.Aphasics seem to understand human expressions better,though they cannot understand words.

28.What is so surprising about aphasics?B
A.They can fool other people.
B.They can tell whether people are lying.
C.They can understand language better.
D.They can find out the hidden drugs.
29.How did the scientists study aphasics?C
A.By asking them to watch TV together.
B.By organizing them into acting groups.
C.By comparing them with normal people.
D.By giving them chances to speak on TV.
30.What do we learn from this text?D
A.What ones says reflects how one feels.
B.Aphasics have richer feelings than others.
C.Normal people often tell lies in their speeches.
D.People poor at one thing can be good at another.
1.A student from the High School Affiliated to Fudan University,Wu loves wearing outfits similar to those worn during the Han Dynasty (206BC-AD220).With her straight black hair,arched eyebrows (眼眉) and almond-shaped (桃核状的) eyes,Wu is widely seen as the"perfect image of a talented woman from ancient times."
Apart from her perfect knowledge and understanding of various lines of poetry,what has earned Wu the most praise was her calm and modest behavior during the competition.
During a part of the show on February 1in which she went up against the previous round's champion,Wu recited a line of poetry that her opponent (对手) had used earlier.After the hostess pointed this out,Wu quickly recited another line from the Classic of Poetry,the oldest existing collection of Chinese poetry,without hesitation.This quick and calm reaction made her famous overnight.
This part of the show was based on Feihualing,an ancient drinking game often played by scholars in ancient China.Added this season,the game has the hostess select a Chinese character and the two remaining competitors will then have to recite a piece of poetry that contains this character.
"Her heart has absorbed the power of poetry.Wu is also modest.She just stands there,calm and relaxed.She makes you feel a poetic feeling just by being there,"Meng Man,an associated professor at Minzu University of China and one of the show's judges,said.

18.Not long ago,few little girls imagined they could grow up to become astronauts.For years in the United States,only men had that opportunity.In 1983,that changed.Sally Ride made history by becoming the first American woman to travel to space.
On Monday,Ride died at the age of 61,"Sally was a national hero and a powerful role model,"President Barack Obama said in a statement."She inspired generations of young girls to reach for the stars."
Ride became interested in space when she was a kid."If you asked me when I was 12 whether I wanted to be an astronaut,I'm sure I would have said yes,"she said in a 2010 interview."But I didn't even think about that as a possible career."
After studying physics in college,Ride got her chance.She was accepted into NASA's astronaut training program in 1978,and then chosen to be the first American female in space.In 1983,she blasted into space aboard the Challenger shuttle.
Ride returned to space on the Challenger a second time in 1984.Between the two missions,she spent a total of 343hours in orbit.After that,she remained involved with the space program and also worked to share her passion for science with kids.She co-authored six science books for children,and started her own science education company.
Ride knew that she held a unique place in history."I realized how important it was for a woman to break that barrier and open the door for other women to be able to do the same exciting things that the men had been doing,"she said.
Since Ride's historic trip,more than 40other American women have traveled to space.They all had Ride to thank for opening the door to the final frontier.
