  Ask three people to look out the same window at a busy street corner and tell you what they see. Chances that you will receive three different answers. Each person sees the same scene, but each perceives (感知)something different about it.

  Perceiving goes on in our minds. Of the three people who look out the window. One may say that he sees a policeman giving a motorist a ticket. Another may say that he sees a rush-hour traffic jam (擁擠) at the crossing. The third may tell you that he sees a woman trying to cross the street with four children in tow (牽著). For perception is the mind's explanation of what the senses-in this case our eyes-tell us.

  Many psychologists (心理學家) today are working to try to determine just how a person experiences or perceives the world around him. Using a scientific method, these psychologists set up experiments in which they can control all of the factors. By measuring and charting(用圖表示) the results of many experiments, they are trying to find out what makes different people perceive totally different things about the same scene.

1.Seeing and perceiving are ________ .

[  ]

A.the same action

B.two separate actions

C.two actions carried on entirely by the eyes

D.several actions that take place at different times

2.Perceiving is an action that takes place________ .

[  ]

A.in our eyes

B.only when we think very hard

C.only under the direction of a psychologist

D.in every person's mind

3.People perceive different things about the same scene because ________ .

[  ]

A.they see different things
B.they can't agree about things

D.studying people's eyes

She wanted to switch the oven off at 7: 30 but she was practicing the cello, and it wasn't until 8 o'clock that she suddenly realized: she had forgotten her TV dinner ! She rushed into the kitchen, but it was too late- everything was black.

On Wednesday she took Foxy for a walk in the park and lost him. She looked for him everywhere, but he had disappeared. The stupid dog came back later, but that was after Mrs Rosenbaum had telephoned nearly everybody in the neighborhood.

閱讀理解

  The repairman told me, “No charge, Professor Pan! We’re friends.”

  “I’d rather pay, ” I replied.“If it’s free, I can’t afford it!”

  Chinese often refuse payment for professional services, insisting, “We’re friends now!” But then they show up later to ask me to tutor them in English, or get them into an American university, and I wish I’d have just paid the 30 yuan I owed them in the first place!

  According to the Americans, “There is no free lunch.”, means that there’s a price for everything.And I’m always looking around to figure out what this means.

  Many of our neighbours have given us fruit or flowers or costly teas, never asking anything in return.For years, a bicycle repairman has repeatedly refused to let me pay him.“Wait until you have something major to fix!” he insists.

  I mentioned to a peasant friend that I wished I had a stone mill to grind(磨)flour for bread.A month later he showed up with a beautiful mill that he’d had his uncle in the countryside carve from a solid block of granite(花崗石).

  Chinese generosity(慷慨)is a real education for Americans like me, who would rather avoid social entanglements(糾紛)and just hand over the money.But cash can’t compensate(補償)for the greatest gift-friendship.

  When an American saw some of my friends sitting on bamboo stools under the trees, sipping(呷)tea, he said, “They must have nothing better to do.” “Actually,” I said, “they are professors, with plenty to do.But probably you are right in saying that, at this moment, they have nothing better to do.And neither do I!”?

  And I joined the group.When chatted about tea and Chinese cooking and how much my boys have grown since we arrived.One man said, “They were pocket-sized when you came here.Now they’re taller than you.How time flies!”

  How life flies.And Chinese are smart enough to share what they know they cannot keep.They freely give off their time, never too busy to help a friend.And they are teaching me, slowly, to both give and receive.So the next time someone says, “No charge.We’re friends!” I will thank them heartily.But if they show up later asking me to tutor them in English, I’ll make sure they tutor my son in Chinese as well, because there’s still no free lunch.

(1)

B.

Because he didn’t know the repair man.

閱讀理解

  “What If”questions can help you think about what to do in case something should happen.There are no right answers because every case is different.Use the questions with your parents or with friends and decide what you think might work?Think of your own solutions and make up new“What If”questions to answer.

  1)You are walking to school and a gang of older bullies(person who uses his strength or power to frighten or hurt weaker people)demands your money

  Do you:

  a.Shout and run away?

  b.Give them the money?

  Give them the money(or other possessions)your safety is more impoaant than money

  2)You are in the school toilet and an older student comes in, beats you and then tells you not to do anything or’you’ll get worse’.You know who the person is and you have never done anything to him/her.Do you:

  a.Wait until the person leaves and then tell a teacher?

  b.Get it a fight with him/her?

  c.Accept what happened and don’t tell?

  Tell the teacher-you didn’t deserve to be beaten and the bully was wrong to do it.If you don’t tell, the bully will just keep on beating up other kids.

  3)A gang of bullies gets you alone and starts beating you.Do you:

  a.Do nothing-just take it?

  b.Fight back?

  c.Shout to attract attention?

  d.Watch for your chance and run away?

  You must decide.but c.&.d.together could work very well.It would be quite difficult to a whole gang of bullies and you might be hurt badly if you did.

  4)Someone in your class always makes rude comments about you and says them loud enough for you(and others)to hear.It really upsets you.Do you:

  a.Ignore the comments?

  b.Face the bully and tell him/her off?

  c.Tell the teacher?

  d.Hit the bully on the nose?

  You may feel like beating the bully, but you’ll probably be the one to get into trouble if you do.Try a first-ignoring comments is difficult, but can work if the bully gets tired of trying to get you to be angry or cry or show some reaction.Your teacher should be told about the comments because no one should make hurtful comments to others.If you are feeling brave, tell the bully off.Try practising in the mirror to get the right effect!
