I found myself at a checkout counter behind an elderly woman seemingly in no hurry as she paid for her groceries. A PhD student with not a lot of money, I had hurried into the store to pick up some flowers. I was in a huge rush, thinking of my uping evening. I did not want to be late for this date. We were in Boston, a place not always known for small conversation between strangers. The woman stopped unloading her basket and looked up at me. She smiled. It was a nice smilewarm and reassuring and I returned her gift by smiling back. Must be a special lady, whoever it is that will be getting those beautiful flowers, she said Yes, shes special, I said and then to my embarrassment, the words kept ing out. Its only our second date, but somehow I am just having the feeling shes the one. Jokingly, I added, The only problem is that I cant figure out why shed want to date a guy like me. Well, I think shes very lucky to have a boyfriend who brings her such lovely flowers and who is obviously in love with her, the woman said. My husband used to bring me flowers every week even when times were tough and we didnt have much money. Those were incredible days; he was very romantic and of courseI miss him since he s passed away. I paid for my flowers as she was gathering up her groceries. There was no doubt in my mind as I walked up to her. I touched her on the shoulder and said, You were right, you know. These flowers are indeed for a very special lady. I handed her the flowers and thanked her for such a nice conversation. It took her a moment to realize that I was giving her the flowers I had just purchased. You have a wonderful evening, I said. I left her with a big smile and my heart warmed as I saw her smelling the beautiful flowers. I remember being slightly late for my date that night and telling my girlfriend the above story. A couple of years later, when I finally worked up the courage to ask her to marry me,she told me that this story had helped to seal it for her that was the night that I won her heart.24.

Elderly people deserve respecting.C Researchers at Stanford University have developed a new material that can move heat out of buildings and into space. The researchers say the material can cool buildings even on hot days. The cooling material is a very thin sheet with many layers that could be placed on a roof like solar panels (板). However, instead of turning sunlight into energy as solar panels do, the material turns heat into radiation. Shanhui Fan is an electrical engineering professor at Stanford University. He says that the panels have a layer of material that is like sand. The panels act like a mirror. They take heat out of buildings and reflect the light from the sun. And he says both the heat and sunlight are sent 100 kilometers into outer space. Its a structure(构造) that cools itself without electricity input, even under the sun. So, what it does is basically radiate heat to outer space and also reflect the sunlight so it doesnt get heated up by the sun. Mr. Fan says, it is like having a window into space. The heat is sent directly into space without warming the air. He says buildings in developing countries that do not have electricity or air conditioning could use the panels. In areas where electricity is out of reach for many people, there is a potential (潜在的) benefit for storing medicine or even food. In many of these situations, being able to reduce the temperature is important. And this would provide a way to do it. The researchers say the main problem is creating actual cooling systems using the high-tech panels. They say it may be possible to develop a cooling spray(喷涂) that could be used on present solid structures. They believe the cooling spray technology could be developed in the next three to five years. They say as much as 15 percent of the energy used in the United States is spent providing power to air conditioning systems.28. The first paragraph mainly tells us_. A. living on hot days is no longer a big problem now B. a new material is created to cool the buildings C. researchers are developing new solar panels on roofs D. the new material is a very thin sheet with many layers29. How does the panel work? A. It takes in the heat and cools it down. B. It uses a mirror to reflect the sunlight. C. It sends heat away right into space. D. It has a window to let out the heat.30. The new material is especially useful in areas that_. A. suffer low temperature B. have poor air conditioning C. have plenty of food D. are short of power31. What can you infer from the passage? A. The appliance of the new panel is still under research. B. Some people got benefits from producing the panels. C. People may have problems in using the new material. D. The new panels may save 15 percent of the energy.DI guess I always knew about the little fish treat, but this past summer it was all I could see. Pipin and Nemo were flying through hoops(圈), dancing with the trainer, and we were all applauding(鼓掌)the little kids were excited. Thats when the trainer, rewarded Pipin and Nemo with a fish. Each time they successfully performed a trick, theyd get an immediate reward. These animals werent really dancing, of course. They were performing a series of movements that they knew would have a fish. Its such a good show because the sea lions look like theyre having such fun. These talented performers who love to be in front of people seem almost human. Somewhere in our life journey, we all have a sea lion moment. You see how youve spent years jumping through hoops, not because its really who you are, but because youve always done it and you will get reward for your performance. But when youve done that for ten or twenty years, you start to ask yourself, Who am I working for? What do I really believe? Suddenly you see it: youve spent almost all your life taking direction (方向) from other people. Theyve told you what to believe in, what to work for and how to live your life. You dont want to end your life like George. George is speaking to his son Ted, who cannot follow in his fathers steps. He wants to leave college and head off on his own way. Dad, I can t stand it any more, the boy says ,Maybe its all right for some kids. Maybe Ill want to go back some day, but now, I want to do what I want to and bee myself. George, seeming old, says ,Ive never done a single thing Ive wanted to do in my whole life! The Good-Bye Gate brings us naturally to a second passage, leading from being dependent to being self. You start to find out that where there is supposed to be a self, there really isnt.32. The sea lions were pleased to perform in front of people because they_. A. will be punished if they refuse it B. want to win the trainers favor C. want to get others applauses D. can get food as a reward in that way33.
