Every day they
18、 are very busy trying to earn money to pay the high tuition for us. They dont act in the romantic ways that I read in books or I see on TV. “ I love you” is too luxurious for them to say .

20、tely. Then she bowed her head and continued sewing the quilt. I was in a great embarrassment and I didnt know what to do. But at last I heard my mother say the following words: “ Look at this thread. Sometimes it appears, but most of it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt stro

22、pital for a month. When they returned from the hospital, they both seemed as if they had a serious illness. Every day in the morning and dusk, my mother helped my father walk slowly on the country road. It seemed they were the most harmonious couple. There were many beautiful flowers, green grass an
23、d trees, and the sun gently glistened through the leaves. All of these made up the most beautiful picture in the world. When we were worrying about him, he said gently: “ I really like walking with your mom. I like this kind of life.” Reading his eyes, I know he loves my mother deeply.Once I thought

29、ay when they were attacked. Local police usually accompanied the group during their travels in the country.Earlier in the day, 10 other Chinese engineers who worked together with the victims returned to Hefei. They were all from Hefei Cement Research & Design Institute, and were in Pakistan to offer
30、 technical services for the construction of a cement factory there.“The guards of the Chinese engineers were not accompanying them when they were attacked,” local police officer Pervez Zahoor said. “Police are investigating as to why the guards did not do so that day.”Pakistani President Pervez Mush
31、arraf said in Islamabad on Friday that all the development activities between Pakistan and China would continue and the incident would not affect the friendship between the two countries. He told Xinhua News Agency that the incident had shocked him. “We condemn it in the strongest terms,” he said. “
32、We are annoyed at those who carried out this very evil act. We are determined to catch them and give them the strongest and harshest punishment.”Families of the victims - Long Hongbao,32, Wei Jianping,54, and Zhao Bin, 46 - have spoken of their disaster. “I cant accept his death , as he called me on
33、ly days ago to say he would be coming back this Saturday,” Zhaos wife Shi Weiling said.

Sad families of the three Chinese engineers.CSpacing in animalsFlight DistanceAny observant people has noticed that a wild animal will allow a man or other potential enemy to approach only up to a given distance before it escapes. “Flight distance” is the terms
37、 used for this interspecies spacing. As a general rule, there is a positive relationship between the size of an animal and its flight distance - the larger the animal, the greater the distance it must keep between itself and the enemy. An antelope will escape when the enemy is as much as five hundre
38、d yards away. The wall lizards flight distance, on the other hand, is about six feet. Flight is the basic means of survival for mobile creatures.Critical DistanceCritical distance apparently is present wherever and whenever there is a flight reaction. “Critical distance” includes the narrow zone sep
39、arating flight distance from attack distance. A lion in a zoo will flee from an approaching man until it meets a barrier that it cannot overcome. If the man continues the approach, he soon penetrates the lions critical distance, at which point the cornered lion turns back and begins slowly stalk(逼近)
40、 the man.Social DistanceSocial animals need to stay in touch with each other. Loss of contact with the group can be fatal (致命的) for a variety of reasons including exposure to enemies. Social distance is not simply the distance at which an animal will lose contact with his group - that is, the distan
41、ce at which it can no longer see, hear, or smell the group - it is rather a psychological distance, one at which the animal apparently begins to feel anxious when it goes beyond its limits. We can think of it as a hidden band that contains the group.Social distance varies from species to species. It
42、 is quite short - apparently only a few yards - among some animals, and quite long among others.Social distance is not always rigidly (刻板的) fixed but is determined in part by the situation. When the young of apes and humans are mobile but not yet under control of the mothers voice, social distance m
43、ay be the length of her reach. This is readily observed among baboons(狒狒) in a zoo. When the baby approaches a certain point, the mother reaches out to seize the end of its tail and pull it back to her. When added control is needed because of danger, social distance shortens. To show this in man, on
44、e has only to watch a family with a number of small children holding hands as they cross a busy street.49. Which of the following is the most suitable explanation to “Flight distance”?A. Distance between animals of the same species before escaping.B. Distance between large and small animals before f

If an animals critical distance is penetrated, it will _6A. begin to attack B. try to hide C. begin to jump D. run away51. According to the passage, social distance
46、refers to _.A. distance at which one cannot see the groupB. psychological distanceC. distance at which the mother baboon can seize the babys tailD. distance at which an animal will lose touch with the group52. The example of the children holding hands when crossing the street in the last paragraph s
47、hows that _.A. social distance is not always needed.B. there is no social distance among childrenC. human are different from animals in social distanceD. social distance is sometimes determined by outside factors(因素)DAt a hospital in Illinois, doctors and patients dress up as clowns (小丑) and put on little plays to make each other laugh.
