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.

1.What is so surprising about aphasics?

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.

2.How did the scientists study aphasics?

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.

3.What do we learn from this text?

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.

A scanner is recently created by a group of professors. It is believed to predict the perfect job for anyone simply by reading their fingerprints. The group says that in the future, fingerprints could help tell a person’s key personalities.

To use the scanner, people place their fingers upon the fingerprint reader and computer technology connected with sensors (传感器) reads back what sort of job could suit the individual. The machine bases its results on a collection of a large amount of information in the computer about how fingerprint shapes connect with job selection.

Local companies help researchers from the city’s Kuban University of Physical Education and Sport to test the technology.

Twenty - one - year - old Oscar Galkin, a mathematics graduate, said: “I got the result from the scanner that I would suit a job in IT, which is exactly what I want to do. I don’t know if it is luck or if it can really read a person’s talents, but it worked for me.”

And Zara Tokareva, aged 20, who feels uncomfortable at the sight of blood, said: “I want to be a house designer but the machine said I should be a nurse. So, no, I don’t think it is as clever as expected.”

Though fingerprint identification has been widely used in crime discovering, it is still a science that has a lot of possibility of being used, say experts, from discovering drug misuse to personality analysis - exactly as hand readers have been saying to do for centuries.

“The basic idea is that although everybody’s fingerprints are completely different, there are obvious features that are common on the fingers of certain professionals working in certain jobs,” said researcher Ravil Yudin.

It’s not really a new idea because hand readers have been saying for hundreds of years that you can tell a person’s future by reading their hands. We want to match that by looking at fingerprints and trying to tell what career path people would choose.

1.From the text we know that the fingerprint scanner .

A. matches fingerprints with jobs B. tells people’s personality

C. helps collect job information D. reads individual’s mind

2.What can we learn from what Ravil Yudin said?

A. The fingerprint scanner is based on a new idea.

B. Cerain people’s fingers actually have something in common.

C. Telling one’s future by reading his hands started a few years ago.

D. The technology of fingerprint identification can be used in many fields.

3.What is the main idea of the passage?

A. Hand readers are widely used in life.

B. A fingerprint scanner could tell a person’s personality.

The Great Wall of China, one of the greatest wonders of the world, was enlisted in the World Heritage by the UNESCO in 1987. Just like a gigantic dragon, the Great Wall winds up and down across deserts, grasslands and mountains, stretching about 6,700 kilometers from east to west of China. With a history of more than 2,000 years, some parts of the Great Wall are now in ruins or even entirely disappeared. However, it is still one of the most appealing attractions around the world.

No one can tell for sure when the building of the Great Wall was started, but it is popularly believed that it originated as a military fortification(要塞) against intrusion by tribes on the borders during the earlier Zhou Dynasty. Late in the Spring and Autumn Period, some states extended the defence work to prevent the attacks from other states.

It was not until the Qin Dynasty that the separate walls were connected to form a defensive system by Emperor Qin Shi Huang. After the emperor unified the country in 214 BC, he ordered the construction of the wall. It took about ten years to finish and the wall stretched from Gansu Province to Jilin Province. The wall not only served as a defence in the north but also symbolized the power of the emperor.

Further construction also experienced several dynasties. The present Great Wall in Beijing is mainly remains from the Ming Dynasty. Today, the Great Wall has become a must-see for every visitor to China. Few can help saying “Wow” when they stand on top of a beacon tower and look at this giant dragon. It has become a national pride of Chinese people.
