6．Anyone can start an argument，but it takes a strong person to stop the argument．Many people want to be the stronger person，but they often lack the know-how．If for you，the question of how to stop an argument is cooling yourself off and showing your ability to resolve conflict，follow these steps and begin the process of renewing your relationship．
Step One  Take a time-out from the person and the argument．Go and get a cup of coffee，go to the bathroom or take a drive．Do whatever you can to get yourself out of the place where the argument is taking place．Remember not to leave the argument unresolved and walk away； just leave for long enough to cool off and get back together later．
Step Two Plan to finish the argument at a time when you can both be uninterrupted for 30minutes．An uninterrupted 30minutes is long enough for you both to share your feelings and discuss why you feel that way．
Step Three  Think and plan during your time-out so that you're prepared for your meeting when it does take place．Keep yourself from remembering the other person's past mistakes or from making personally pointed attacks．Do this by keping your focus on the issue at hand and always coming back to that issue．
Step Four  Keep the problem between the two of you．Regardless of how badly your feelings are hurt or how much you want to discuss this problem with your other friends，refrain （克制） for the sake of your friendship．Stopping an argument is hard enough with other people getting involved．
Step Five  Be open and honest with one another，be willing to show your vulnerability （脆弱性） and be open to the fact that you may be wrong．No one is right all the time，and your argument is more resolvable if you keep from feeling like you have to defend your every move．
Step Six  Say"I'm sorry"even if you think you're justified in what you said or did．Just hearing those words has a healing effect on every relationship，and most of the time we wound each other without being aware of it．

7．Reading can be a social activity．Think of the people who belong to book groups．They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them．Now the website BookCrossing．com turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group．
Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share．BookCrossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book．Then the person leaves it in a public place，hoping that the book will have an adventure，traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it．
Bruce Pederson，the managing director of BookCrossing，says，"The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read．BookCrossing combines both．"
Members leave books on park benches and buses，in train stations and coffee shops．Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it．
People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it．E-mails are then sent to the BookCrossers to keep them updated about where their books have been found．Bruce Peterson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home．
BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back to the"real"and not the virtual（虚拟）．The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty-five countries．

5．According to a team of researchers，an animals'ability to perceive（感知）time is linked to their pace of life．
"Our results lend support to the importance of time perception in animals where the ability to perceive time in a very short time may be the difference between life and death for fast moving creatures．"commented lead author Kevin Healy from Trinity College Dublin．
The study was done with a variety of animals using a phenomenon based on the maximum speed of flashes of light an individual can see before the light source is seen as constant．Dogs，for example，have eyes with a refresh rate higher than humans．
One example of this phenomenon at work，the authors say，is the housefly and its ability to avoid being hit．The research showed flies"observe motion in a shorter time than our own eyes can achieve，"which allows them to avoid being hit．
Professor Graeme Ruxton of the University of St Andrews in Scotland，who worked jointly on the research project，said in a statement，"Having eyes that send updates to the brain at much higher frequencies than our eyes do is of no value if the brain cannot process that information equally quickly．Thus，this work highlights（强调） the impressive abilities of even the smallest animal brains．Flies might not be deep thinkers，but they can make good decisions very quickly．"
In comparison，the tiger beetle （虎甲虫）runs faster than its eyes can keep up，basically becoming blind，which requires it to stop periodically to re-evaluate its prey's （猎物）position．
Our results suggest that time perception offers an as yet unstudied dimension along which animals can specialize and there is considerable range to study this system in more detail．

32．What is the research mentioned in the passage mainly about？B
A．Pace of life of animals．
B．Time perception of animals．
C．Lifetime of small animals．
D．Impressive abilities of animals．
33．What does Kevin Healy's comment mean in Para.2？B
A．The ability of animals to perceive time depends on their high moving speed．
B．The survival of fast moving animals relies on their ability to perceive time．
C．Animals with quicker pace of life have better perception of time．
D．Animals with poor ability of time perception have a shorter life．
34．Why can houseflies avoid being hit？C
A．They can think very deeply before they act．
B．They can fly much faster than their eyes can keep up．
C．They can process the information as quickly as they receive it．
D．They can send information to brain more quickly than to their eyes．
35．What will a tiger beetle have to do to catch a moving prey？D
A．Try to run as fast as it can．
B．Prevent itself from becoming blind．
C．Slow down to gain its time perception．
D．Stop occasionally to spot the prey again．
