二、完形填空(共20小题,每小题1分,满分20分)

I had an interesting experience playing ping-pong last year. I was playing against a 16 opponent(对手). The score was 20 to 17 in her  17 . I won the next three points which made the score 20 to 20. I  18 my paddle on the table and thanked my opponent and began to walk away. She called me  19  and said we had to continue until one of us  20 .

“Look,”I said, “if we 21 , one of two events will take place, either you or I will win.If you win, I will begin to 22  my skill. If I win, you will be unhappy. Isn’t it better to know that we both played 23  , that we enjoyed the competition, and that we played an even(相等) score?” This was a 24  ending for my opponent and for the persons watching this contest. It made  25  to me to leave with a tie(不分胜负) game, an impasse(僵局): no winner, no 26  .

So, my friends, here is the problem  27   me. Our present technology makes it possible for nations to  28  other nations for retaliatory(报复) strikes. In such a nuclear time, there  29  be no winners, only losers. Under these conditions, the only choice to  30  global destruction is glogal impasse. This would be a  31  “tie game” where no nation wins and no nation loses. An impasse reached through compromise(妥协). This is because compromise becomes the only means of  32 . We cannot destroy this beautiful planet by holding on to  33  understanding of victory. The 34  victory is in achieving a desirable impasse. No one wins, 35  no one loses either.

The computer is fast, and never makes a mistake, while people are too slow, and full of mistakes sometimes. That’s what people often say when they talk about computers. For over a quarter of a century, scientists have been making better and better computers. Now a computer can do a lot of everyday jobs wonderfully. It is widely used in factories, hospitals, post offices and airports. A computer can report, decide and control in almost every field. Many computer scientists are now thinking of making the computer “think” like a man. With the help of a person, a computer can draw pictures, write music, talk with people, play chess, recognize voices, translate languages and so on. Perhaps computers will one day really think and feel. Do you think the people will be afraid when they find that the computer is too clever to listen to and serve the people?

64. The best title for this passage is ___ .

A. Computer                      B. Computer scientists

C. The Future World                D. Talk with Computers

65. Which of the following can computers not do now?

A. Draw pictures.                   B. Talk.

Researchers Look Behind the Tears to Study Crying

    Many people found themselves unusually moved by the historic presidential inauguration(就职演说)last week in Washington Watching the huge crowds,we saw laughter,cheers,hugs-but also many tears

    It made us wonder,why dopeople cry?Surely tears must be good for us—away to calm the mind and cleanse the body.Yet studies show that crying sometimes makes people feel worse.

    Three researchers in Florida and the Netherlands recently looked more deeply into the subject. They examined detailed descriptions ofcrying experiences.Psychologist Jonathan Rottenberg at the University of South Florida says they wanted to study crying as it happens in everyday life,not in a laboratory.

    The team analyzed information from the Intemational Study on Adult Crying.As part of that study,three thousand people in different countries,mostly college students,wrote about recent crying experiences.They noted causes,surroundings and any people involved in the event.They also reported how they felt after they cried.

    Professor Roaenberg says the research showed that all crying experiences are not created equal. Crying does not always make a person feel better,he says.About ten percent of people reported feeling worse after they cried.

    But a third felt better after crying.And a majority reported the experience as helpful.

    The research showed that people who cry alone may not do as well as those with others around. People who reached out for emotional support at the time-and received it-reported better results from the crying experience.

    But Professor Rottenberg says those who felt shame or embarrassment while crying were less likely to report that crying had been helpful.

    Research has shown that women cry more of ten and more intensely than men.But it may not be to better effect,says the psychologist.The new findings,he says,did not show that a person’s sex was an advantage of beneficial crying.In other words,just because women cry more does not mean they are more likely to have a“good”cry.

    The paper entitled”Is Crying Beneficial?”appeared in December in Current Directions in Psychological Scieflce And there is more to learn.Jonathan Rottenberg says the science ofcrying is still in its infancy.

57·Why did the author mention the presidential inauguration in Washington in the first paragraph?

    A.Because he was impressed by the laughter,cheers,hugs and tears.

    B.Because he wanted to introduce the topic about crying.

    C.Because he wanted to show people’s dissatisfaction with the result.

    D.Because it was the historic moment that many people cried

 58.How did the researchers carry out the research?

    A.They studied crying experiences not only in everyday life but also in labs.

    B.They collected the crying experiences of the students at the colleges.

    C They studied the crying experiences of grown-ups from various countries.

    D.They noted their own crying experiencesand compared with others.

59.We can learn from the passage that_______.

    A.it may be better to cry alone than with others around

    B.some support from others may make crying helpful

    C.women who cry more of ten may have better effects than men

    D.the effects will be better if you feel shy while crying

 60.The underlined phrase in the last paragraph probably means_______.

    A.in the early stage   B.in a secret state   C.in the first place    D in good condition
