It was the night of the full moon,a time which always drives Java’s young people mad with excitement.

After they were   50  the temple,they drank their water and ate their moon-cakes—delicious home-made ones,   51  of dried fruit and nuts.Outside,on the mountain,young people
    52  cross-legged in circles,chatting and telling each other jokes.And   53  ,in their hundreds,more young people continued to make their way up the mountain to   54  the brightly shining moon.
By midnight,the fireworks had stopped shooting up from the   55  city in the valley below them.But during the night,the sound continued to be heard from the distance.

Many years ago,I owned a service station and roadhouse on the main road between Melbourne and Adelaide.
One very cold,wet night at about 3:30 a.m.,there was a    41   on the front door of our house.A young man,wet from      42     to toe,explained that he had      43     out of petrol about 30 km up the road.He had left his pregnant(懷孕的) wife and his two children    44   at the car and said that he would hitchhike(搭便車) back.

me and I told him that the petrol pump(加油泵) had    54   $15.He offered to pay “call-out fee”,but I wouldn’t accept it.
About a month later,I received a    55   from Interstate,a large bus company that we bad been trying to    56   to stop off at our roadhouse for a long time.It    57   out that the young fellow I had helped was its general manager,the most    58   person in the company.

A week ago, I read When Money Talks, Listen! by Rich Ezzo. It took only about an hour to read, and that included one trip to the coffee maker and about 10 distractions (分心)from Alex, our cat, who thinks he is the center of the universe.
When I first received a copy, I thought it was a get-rich-quick type of publication. There is nothing wrong with that kind of book, but my mind just doesn’t chase after dreams of wealth. I figure that if God ever wants me to be rich, he knows where to find my purse.
When I began reading When Money Talks, Listen!, I was overjoyed to find that Rich Ezzo isn’t money hungry either. He, too, is hungry for things far more important than money.
I absolutely love this e-book. Why did I wait a week to write the review ? simple. I wanted to see if the impact it had on me could keep up. After reading the last word of the e-book, I totally agreed with the subtitle(副標(biāo)題)which promised to forever change the way we thought about money. I had so many thoughts running around my mind that I had to install a stop light to stop some while others made their way into the picture. I had a mental traffic jam, which only goes to show how slow the traffic usually is.
It has been a week and the impact is the same. I guarantee this is an e-book you’ll want to read. I urge you to visit the author’s website, MysterMoney. Com, and to download the e-book. You won’t
regret it.
小題1:What’s the purpose of the passage?

A．to strongly recommend an e-book

B．to show the author’s attitude to money

C．to introduce the general idea of an e-book

D．to tell us Rich Ezzo isn’t money hungry

小題2:The author didn’t write the review right after reading because _____.

A．he was too excited to write anything

B．he was not sure whether he liked the book

C．he had to wait for Rich Ezzo’s permission

D．he wondered if this book had a long influence on him

小題3:Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A．The author had known Rich Ezzo before

B．The author hasn’t dreamed of getting rich instantly

C．The author always prefers e-books to paper books

D．The author likes the get-rich type of publication

Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman. A man goes shopping because he needs something. His purpose is settled and decided in advance. He knows what he wants, and his objective is to find it and buy it; the price is a secondary consideration. All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want. If the shop has it in stock, the salesman promptly produces it, and the business of trying it on goes forward at once. All being well, the deal can be and often is completed in less than five minutes, with hardly any chat and to everyone's satisfaction. For a man, slight problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants, or does not have exactly what he wants. In that case the salesman, as the name implies, tries to sell the customer something else, he offers the nearest he can to the article required. No good salesman brings out such a substitute without least consideration; he does so with skill and polish（完美）: “I know this jacket is not the style you want, sir, but would you like to try it for size. It happens to be the color you mentioned." Few men have patience with this treatment, and the usual response is: “This is the right color and may be the right size but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on.
Now how does a woman go about buying clothes? In almost every respect she does so in the opposite way. Her shopping is not often based on need. She has never fully made up her mind what she wants, and she is only “having a look round". She is always open to persuasion: indeed she sets great store by what the saleswoman tells her, even by what companions tell her. She will try on any number of things. Uppermost in her mind is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. Contrary to a lot of jokes, most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes. They are always on the lookout for the unexpected bargain. Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour going from one rail to another, to and fro often retracing her steps, before selecting the dresses she wants to try on. It is a tiresome process, but apparently an enjoyable one. Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.
小題1:According to the passage, a man’s shopping is based on _______.

A．his money

B．his hobbies

C．his need

D．his friends

小題2:Why does a lady welcome suggestions from anyone while buying a dress?

A．Because she wants to buy a dress that every one thinks suits her.

B．Because she doesn’t know how to buy a dress.

C．Because she doesn’t know whether to buy it or not.

D．Because she wants to show herself off in public.

小題3:Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A．Most men have patience with trying it on while buying a jacket.

B．Most women have a poor sense of value when buying a dress.

C．A woman’s shopping is based on her need.

D．A man doesn’t pay much attention to the price of the clothes he wants to buy.

小題4:The passage mainly talks about the ______ between men shoppers and women shoppers for clothes.

A．similarities

B．differences

C．varieties

D．intentions

When someone steps on your toe by accident, you will hurt plenty．But it hurts even more, if you think the person does the same thing on purpose．Earlier studies have found that the feeling of pain can change with how it is experienced．That is why giving people sugar pills and saying they are medicine can make them feel better．
This study examined whether self-reported pain is indeed higher when the events producing the pain are understood as intentionally caused by another person．For the study, the researchers told 40 volunteers that they were going to do a series of tasks, including color matching, number counting and discomfort assessment．This last task involved their receiving a brief electric shock to the wrist．They were told that a partner, sitting in another room, would choose which task they would do, and a computer screen helped them to know their partner’s choice．
In some cases, the volunteers were told their partner had chosen the pain tolerance test．In others, they were told the computers would select the pain tolerance test regardless of their partner’s choice．When volunteers thought that their partners were making the shocks on them on purpose, the feeling made the pain worse．As a matter of fact, they were the same．
This study provides evidence that the experience of pain changes depending upon how they think when people have been harmed．Specifically, the meaning of a harm — whether it was intended — influences the amount of pain it causes．So, although a broken toe may hurt, an intentionally broken toe should hurt more．
