Calvin Coolidge (1872 – 1933) was the thirtieth president of the United States. He looked down on a person as being unworthy of respect who was too fond of talking about the details of others people’s actions and private lives because he had no time for small talks. The following two incidents clearly show how Collidge treasured silence.

When he was vice president, Coolidge had plenty of opportunities to participate (參加) in Washington’s social life, especially the many dinner parties. As be ignored the art of conversation, he couldn’t exactly make himself dear to his hostesses. One lady felt she could solve this problem. She placed him next to Alice Roosevelt Longworth, daughter of the former President Roosevelt. Mrs. Longworth, a very brilliant conversationalist (談話者), began to talk in her usual charming manner, but all attempts to a wake the interest on the part of the vice president were unproductive. Finally, being shamed into anger, she said, “I’m sure that going to as many dinners as you do, you must get terribly bored.”

Without lifting his eyes from his plate, Coolidge said not very clearly, “Well, a man has to eat somewhere.”

Later, when he was president and once again at a dinner party, Collidge was seated next to an outstanding society woman, one of those busybodies, who seemed to take delight in trying to change the lives of everyone they met. “Oh, Mr. President,” she spoke with too much enthusiasm, “you are always so quiet. I made a bet (打賭) today that I could get more than two words out of you.”

President Collidge considered those people as being unworthy of respect          .

       A．who liked to talk about the affairs of others

       B．who never talked about anything serious

       C．who often spoke insincerely

       D．who talked much but did little

The hostesses thought Collidge was unfriendly because        in her eyes.

       A．he treated women coldly and rudely

       B．he paid no attention to conversational skills

       C．he was too serious to please any women

       D．he was pretty easy and quick to get angry

Mrs. Longworth got shamed and angry because         .

       A．the vice president took part in too many dinner parties

       B．the vice president didn’t lift his eyes from his plate

       C．the vice president didn’t speak exactly and clearly

       D．the vice president didn’t react to all her efforts

The underlined sentence “Well, a man has to eat somewhere” probably means        .

      A．Mr. Coolidge didn’t want to talk with Mrs. Longworth at all

       B．Mr. Coolidge had really got tired of so many social dinners

       C．Mr. Coolidge was unhappy with the dinner he was eating that day

A car that runs on coffee is unveiled（shown to the public for the first time）today but at between 25 and 50 times the cost of running a car on petrol, the invention won’t please any motor industry accountants．

Nicknamed the Car-puccino, it has been created using a 1988 Volkswagen Scirocco bought for ??400 and it was chosen because it looked like the time-traveling DeLorean in the movie Back To The Future．The car will be driven the 210 miles between Manchester and London powered only by roasted coffee granules （顆粒）．It has been built by a team from the BBC1 science programme Bang Goes The Theory and will go on display at the Big Bang science fair in Manchester to show how fuels other than traditional petrol can power vehicles．

The team calculates the Car-puccino will do three miles per kilo of ground coffee （咖啡粉） — about 56 cups of espressos （濃咖啡） per mile．The journey will use about 70 kilos of ground coffee which, at supermarket prices of between ??13 and ??26 a kilo depending on brand and quality, will cost between ??910 and ??1,820, or between 25 and 50 times the ??36 cost of petrol for the journey．In total, the trip will cost 11,760 espressos, and the team will have to take ‘coffee breaks’ roughly every 30 to 45 miles to pour in more granules．They will also have to stop about every 60 miles to clean out the ‘coffee filters’ to rid them of the soot and tar which is also generated by the process．So despite a top speed of 60mph, the many stops mean the going will be slow, with the journey taking around ten hours．

Sadly, the inventors will still have to pay duty on their coffee fuel---even though tax collectors at Her Majesty’s Revenue and Custom haven’t yet worked out how much．

Nick Watson, producer of Bang Goes The Theory, said, “Coffee, like wood or coal, has some carbon content so you can use it as a fuel．The coffee needs to be very dry and in granules to allow the air to move through the pile of coffee as it burns．The brand doesn’t matter．” He said the same technology could be used to power a car on other unusual fuels, such as woodchips or nut shells, construction or agricultural waste．

Which is the right way to choose the coffee used as fuels to run the Car-puccino?

       A．It should be very dry．                  B．The stronger, the better．

       C．The smaller the granules are, the better．  D．It should be of a certain brand．

What can be inferred from the passage?

       A．All kinds of materials can be used as fuels．

       B．The Car-puccino will be put into the market soon．

       C．Nick Watson is the designer of the Car-puccino

       D．Much remains to be improved for the Car-puccino．

The Car-puccino has its disadvantages EXCEPT that ________．

       A．it makes a lot of noise           

       B．it runs at a very high cost

       C．it has to stop to be refueled very often    

       D．it’s not good enough for long-distance journey

How much ground coffee will be used to cover a distance of 126 miles in this car?

       A．About 70 kilos B．About 42 kilos．     C．About 32 kilos        D．About 30 kilos

Why can coffee be used as a fuel?

A. It looks like wood or coal.          B. It contains some carbon content.

C. It is very cheap.                  D. It is much better than woodchips or nut shells.
