This morning on my way to school I was deep moved by what I saw outside a bank．An old man was counting his money in the front of the bank．Suddenly a young man came running and knocked him down．To make things bad，his money was lying in all direction．At once the people around rush to pick the money up，while the old man stood there，not know what to do．Surprisingly，everyone gave back the money they had just picked．The old man counted the money again and found that not a single bill was missed．To my great joy，there are now a lot of nice people in your life．It's true what honesty is more important than money!

12．IN 2005，David J．Hand，a math professor at Imperial College London，went to a conference in the US with one of his students．They bought their return tickets separately．But when they boarded the plane，they were surprised to find that they were seated right next to each other．
"What a coincidence!"you might say．
Yes，coincidences happen all the time．Sometimes they are so weird （不可思议的） that there seem to be no explanations for them．That sometimes leads people to attribute them to supernatural forces．But are those really responsible？
According to a new book by Professor Hand，The Improbability Principle：Why Coincidences，Miracles，and Rare Events Happen Every Day，what we think of as extremely unlikely events actually happen around us all the time，and they can all be explained by the laws of probability，reported The Washington Post．
Take Hand's experience on the plane as an example．Since there are 450seats on that plane，it may seem like a 1in 450chance that he would have been seated next to his student．But the fact is that many passengers travel in pairs or other groups，and they all require adjacent （相邻的） seats，which makes solo travelers more likely to be seated next to other solo travelers．This increases the odds from 1in 450to a much greater chance．
Another occasion on which coincidences happen frequently is the lottery．On Sept 6，2009，for example，the Bulgarian lottery randomly selected the winning numbers 4，15，23，24，35，and four days later those numbers were chosen again．
According to Hand，although the odds of two specific number draws （抽取） matching are very small，since there are many lotteries globally，the chance of any two draws matching increases with the number of draws，and it reaches a probability of greater than 50percent by the 4，404th round．?
"With a large enough number of opportunities，any outrageous （不寻常的） thing is likely to happen，"writes Hand．
People tend to underestimate the probability of an event because they usually focus on specific instances instead of the broader context，he added．
"We should expect the unexpected，"Hand told New Scientist．"They may not be as improbable as you think．"

43．By mentioning Hand's experience on the flight at the beginning of the article，the author intends toD．
A．show how people usually react to coincidences
B．show that such coincidences actually happen frequently
C．promote Hand's newly-published book on coincidences
D．make us wonder what caused that coincidence
44．What does Hand think can explain almost all coincidences？B
A．Supernatural forces．
B．The laws of probability．
C．Their broader contexts．
D．The law of natural selection．
45．What did Hand believe increased his chances of sitting next to his student？C
A．The limited seats on the plane．
B．The times when they booked their return tickets．
C．The fact that many of the other passengers were traveling together with others．
D．The rule that solo travelers must sit in specific areas of planes．
46．What can we conclude from the article？C
A．The author believes that there are no supernatural forces at all．
B．If you bet on the same numbers each time，you will soon win the lottery．
C．Failing to see the broader contexts for events makes us fail to grasp their true probabilities．
D．Outrageous events wouldn't happen if there were a large enough total number of events．

11．A cruel person is often described as having the"courage and determination"of a scorpion （蝎子）．Although the scorpion's poisonous tail is very frightening，it is nothing but a weapon for defense （防御）．As for scorpion's life cycle，it is characterized by its own"scorpionism"．
Most of the scorpions we see are unmarried"young men and women"．Once they"get married"，they have come to the end of their lives．
Male and female adult scorpions fall in love with each other at first sight．They hold each other with their forelegs and waltz slowly in circles．The courtship （求爱） dance will not stop until they feel quite satisfied．This is called the dance before marriage．
After that，the couple will find a quiet place as their mating room．When the mating is finished，the male lies in its place，offering its body for the female to feed on in its pregnancy （孕期）．By the time the"husband"is eaten up，the female has hatched （孵出） out a mass of tiny baby scorpions which will soon break their mother's back as they are growing bigger and bigger．The babies feed on the dead body of their mother till they finish all of it．Then they will go in all directions to make their own living．
What kind parents!But it is very cruel to see wives eat husbands and children eat their mothers in turn．

10．My Best Enemy
Once again，I was in a new school．So was a girl in my class named Lisa．That's where the similarities ended．
I was tall and she was small．My thick black hair had been recently cut short into an untidy style．Her natural blonde hair flowed to her waist and looked great．!was 12and one of the oldest in the class while she was 11and the youngest．I was awkward and shy，she wasn't．I couldn't stand her，considering her my enemy．But she liked me and wanted to be friends．
One day，she invited me over and I said yes--I was too shocked to answer any other way．My family had moved six limes in six years，and I had never managed to develop any friendships．But this girl who wore the latest fashions wanted me to go home with her after school
She lived in a fun part of town that had two pizza places，an all-right bookstore，a movie theater and a park．As we walked from the school bus stop through her neighborhood，I tried to guess which house might be hers．Was it the white one with the perfect lawn or the three-story house with a front porch？I got very surprised when she led me into an old apartment building．She lived on the fourth floor in a two--room place with her mother，her stepfather，her two brothers and her sister．
When we got into the room she shared with her sister，she took out a big case of Barbies．whichwas my next surprise．I had never played with them．We sat on the floor，laughing as we made up crazy stories about the Barbies．We found out that we both wanted to be writers when we were older and both had wild imaginations．We had a great day that afternoon．
Lisa was loved by the whole neighborhood．The bookstore owners lent her fashion magazines the movie theater gave her free tickets…..Soon I was included in her magic world．We slept over at each other's houses and spent every free moment together．
Lisa，my first real friend since childhood，helped me get through the rough years of early adolescence（青春期）and taught me an amazing and very surprising thing about making friends：you worst enemy can turn out to be your best friend．

8．A visit to the village of Kitaisa，Uganda
There are not many visitors to Kitaisa，and not much that would bring them there unless they know someone living there．Most of the villagers live a distance from the main road and where they live are paths that are difficult to travel，especially during the rainy seasons．
There are a few shops selling oil，sugar，tea，flour，candles．There is no petrol station，but one will find a school and a small government hospital．But there are no doctors，just a few nurses and medically trained staff．
It is still early and most people are outside cooking their meals over firewood．Children in uniform and without shoes are going to school，making their way through muddy paths from the night's rain．
You can see some adults picking beans，or cultivating the ground around corn plants．Some children are carrying water from the nearby river．People are sitting outside having breakfast．Children will have porridge，the family will eat leftover posho，or plantain bananas called matoke．Meat is not often eaten，protein comes mostly from beans．
Here life is tough，there is simply a lack of everything．Some chickens are running around and I am told that they are basically for eggs，though one was caught and given to me for later．Life here is very simple．There is no library here，no newspapers．There was a little restaurant with some outside chairs，a beauty shop，and about eight places where food and other supplies were sold．
People in villages don't live long for the most part，since there is no infrastructure here．There are no ambulances，and if you do get sick there is no money to pay for treatment．The nearest hospital is 15kilometres away in Busunju，but even that larger town lacks facilities，though a medical clinic is there with a doctor，unlike the small facility in Kitaisa which has few things．
Other obvious problems are with water and sanitation．Water taken from creeks should be boiled and treated．It is not and because it has to be carried from a distance it is used sparingly．Children become ill with diseases that could be prevented through the use of soap and water．
There are no jobs in the village，except cultivating your garden．You can try selling food along the road，but there is no way to make money．You learn to live on little and to make every shilling count．Some support comes from relatives and if you visit someone in the village，you bring those things that they do not have and when you leave you leave them some cash．
Village people in Uganda are friendly and hospitable．They are kind and show their graceful ways to outsiders．Kids hover，adults greet you like they have known you forever．

7．After a terrible car accident，the whole world had been completely dark and quiet for Robert Edwards for almost ten years，for he became both blind and deaf．The loss of sight and hearing threw him into such a sorrow that he tried several times to put an end to his life．
His wife did her best to tend and comfort him．By and by he finally regained the courage to live on．
On a hot summer afternoon，he was taking a walk with a stick near his house when a thunderstorm started all at once．He stood under a large tree in order not to get himself wet．Unfortunately he was struck down by a lightning．The witnesses thought him dead but he woke up some 20minutes later lying face down in muddy water below the tree．He felt that he was trembling badly，but when he opened his eyes，he didn't dare to believe that he saw a plough（犁）lying near the wall．When Mrs．Edwards came running up to him，she shouted for help．He saw her and heard her voice for the first time in nearly 10years．
The news of Robert's regaining his sight and hearing quickly spread．Many doctors came to prove the truth of the news．Most of them said that he gained sight and hearing again obviously from the knock of lightning； none of them could give convincing reasons，however．The only reasonable explanation given by one doctor was that，since Edwards lost his sight and hearing as a result of a sudden shock in a terrible accident，perhaps the only way for them to regain was by another sudden shock．
