There is a story told about how Neil set about winning over one particular boy．The boy was always causing trouble and clearly regarded all teachers   36  a hostile eye．On one occasion, Neil, out taking a   37 , had just rounded a corner when he came across the boy playing on his own．The boy, not noticing he was no longer   38  , picked up a stone and threw it through one of the school windows．Turning, he saw Neil．Instead of finding himself   39   at angrily as he expected, the boy was   40   to see Neil bend down, pick up a stone and hurl it at another window．The boy had to   41   to get the window repaired, so did Neil．  42   he thought this a small price to pay for   43   a bond between himself and the boy, whose   44  improved afterwards．

 Neil was a remarkable character who knew just when to be   45   and just when to adopt a lighter touch when handling children．Not everyone is so   46  ．Willie Russell, the   47  , likes to talk about the time when he had freshly   48   from teacher training college and had just begun to work as a teacher．On his first day at the school he was left to do playground duty on his own, rather a（n）   49   experience for one so new to the job．Surrounded by children at morning break, he turned to see one of the children throwing a stone at a school window．When the boy saw that he had been   50   by a teacher, his face fell．  51   for this boy, Russell remembered the story about Neil．Stooping down he picked up a stone and propelled(投擲) it through another window．Turning to smile proudly at the boy his satisfaction was suddenly shattered by the sound of dozens of windows being   52   by flying stones．

Unfortunately he had failed to take into account the difference between his   53   and the one which Neil had faced, namely that he and the boy were not alone．It was at this point in his career that Russell decided that perhaps he was not quite cut out to be a teacher． Deciding after this that he was not suited to teaching he left to   54  playwriting．Most of his plays are very imaginative and  55  ．A bit like this story, in fact．

A lesson in caring

The announcements by the NASA，in the form of several Web site postings and a video posted on YouTube，were in response to worries that the world will end on Dec．21，2012．

The doomsday(末日) rumour reached a high point with the release of the new movie “2012”，directed by Roland Emmerich．In the movie，Yellowstone blows up, showering the continent with black ash．Tidal waves wash over the Himalayas，where the governments of the planet have secretly built a ship which a select 400，000 people can ride out the storm．There are hundreds of hooks devoted to 2012，and millions of Web sites，depending on what combination of“2012”and“doomsday”you type into Google．All of it，astronomers say, is nonsense．“Most of what's claimed for 2012 relies on wishful thinking and ignorance of astronomy．”Ed Krupp， an expert on ancient astronomy，wrote in an article in the November issue of Sky＆Telescope．

“I get angry at the way people are being influenced and frightened to make money,” Morrison said．“There is no right to frighten children to make a buck．”suggested David Morrison，an astronomer at the NASA Ames Research Center in Moffett Field，Calif．He said he had been getting about 20 letters and e—mail messages a day from people as far away as India scared out of their wits．Morrison said he did not blame the movie for all this，as much as many other supporters of the Mayan prediction．But then，he said，“my doctorate is in astronomy，not psychology．”

In an e—mail exchange, Krupp said：“We are always uncertain about the future，and we always consume representations of it．We are always attracted by the romance of the ancient past．”A NASA spokesman，Dwayne Brown，said the agency did not comment on movies，leaving that to movie critics．But when it comes to science, Brown said, “we felt it was careful to provide a resource．”

If you want to worry，most scientists say，you should think about global climate change or nuclear war．But if ancient prophecies(預(yù)言)get you going，here are some things Morrison and the others think you should know．

64．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A．Dr．Morrison blamed the Movie“2011”for the panic it aroused in the public around the world．

B．People who watched the movie were seared and firmly believed that the end of the world was coming．

C．In terms of science it was better to provide evidence and theory at the same time．

D．Dr．Morrison thought it was not right to make money by frightening people．

65．It can be inferred from the text that         ．

A．a(chǎn)stronomers think that doomsday is likely to happen in the near future

B．the reason why the NASA posted web site postings was to make people interested in astronomy

C．scientists think we shouldn't worry about doomsday but show concern about environment protection

D．most astronomers agree that the world is not ending—at least anytime soon

66．Which of the following would be the best title?

A．A New Movie“2012”             B．Is Doomsday Coming?

C．End-of-the-World Stories          D．Astronomers Comment on Movies

67．What would the author probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?

A．Evidence that the Mayans thought something special would happen in 2012．

B．What will really happen in 2012．

C．The reason why there is no need to worry about doomsday．

D．Ancient stories about the end of the world．
