When did you last see a polar bear? On a trip to a zoo, perhaps? If you had attended a winter activity in New York a few years ago, you would have seen a whole polar bear club. These " Polar Bears" are people who meet frequently in winter to swim in freezing cold water. That day, the air temperature was 3℃, and the water temperature was a bit higher. The members of the Polar Bear Club at Coney Island, New York are usually about the age of 60. Members must satisfy two require-ments. First, they must get along well with everyone else in the group. This is very important because there are so many different kinds of people in the club. Polar Bears must also agree to swim outdoors at least twice a month from November through February.
Doctors do not agree about the medical effects of cold-water swimming. Some are worried about the dangers of a condition in which the body´ s temperature drops so low that finally the heart stops.
Other doctors, however, point out that there is more danger of a heart attack during summer swimming because the difference between the air temperature and water temperature is much greater in summer than in winter.
The Polar Bears themselves are satisfied with the benefits (or advantages)of cold-water swim-ming. They say that their favorite form of exercise is very good for the circulatory system(循环系统)because it forces the blood to move fast to keep the body warm. Cold-water swimmers usually turn bright red after a few minutes in the water. A person who turns blue probably has a very poor circula-tory system and should not try cold-water swimming.
The main benefits ( or advantages) of cold-water swimming are probably mental. The Polar Bears love to swim year-round; they find it fun and relaxing. As one 70-year-old woman says, "When I go into the water, I pour my troubles into the ocean and let them float away. "

Life gets noisier every day and very few people can free from noise of some sort or another. It doesn´ t matter where you live--in the middle of a modern city, or a faraway village--the chances that you will be disturbed by jet aero planes, transistor radios, oil powered engines, etc. , are almost everywhere. We seem to be getting used to noise, too. Some people feel quite lonely without back-ground music while they are working.
Scientific tests have shown that total silence can be very frightening experience for human beings. However, some people enjoy listening to pop music which is very loud, and this can do harm to their eardrums(耳鼓). The noise level in some disco is far above the usual safety level for heavy industrial areas.
One recent report about noise and concentration(专心,) suggested that although a lot of people say that any noise disturbs their concentration, what really affects their ability to concentrate is a change in the level of noise. It goes on to say that a background noise, which doesn´ t change too much (music, for example) lnay even help people to concentrate.

If you are writing or studying, it makes very much difference where the light comes from. People who use books and pens every day have to be especially careful about the way the light shines on their work.
Every house gets its light either from daylight through the windows--which is the best to use--or from lamps or electricity; but whichever kind of light it is, the way it shines toward our book or work is a matter of great importance to the eyes.
Take a book, sit with your back toward the window, and try to read. Your shadow(影子) falls all over the page and makes it almost as bad for your eyes as if you were in a dark room. Now turn around and face the window. The page is in the shadow again, while the bright light is in your eyes.
Try sitting with your right side toward the window. This is very well for reading, but if you were writing, the shadow of your hand would fall across the page and bother(打搅) you a little.
There is just one other way:sit with your left side to the window. Now everything is perfect for reading and for writing, too.
Whatever kind of light is in the room, the rule about the right to sit is always the same.

Every Chinese-language textbook starts out with the standard phrases (短语)for greeting peo-ple; but as an Ameri can, I always found myself unable to speak freely when it came to seeing guests off at the door. Just a good-bye would not do, yet that was all I had ever learned from the terrible books. So I would smile and nod, bowing(鞠躬)like a Japanese and searching madly for words that would smooth over the visitor´ s leaving and make them feel they would be welcome to come again. In my unease, I often hid behind the skirts of my Chinese husband´ s kindness.
Then finally, listening to others, I began to pick up the phrases that eased relationships and sent people off not only successfully but also skillfully.
Partings for the Chinese include a lot of necessary habitual practice. Although I´ m not expected to observe or even know all the rules, as a foreigner, I´ ve had to learn the expressions of politeness and protest( 抗议, 反对) at a leaving-taking.
The Chinese feel they must see a guest off to the farthest possible point-down the flight of stairs to the street below or perhaps all the way to the nearest bus stop. I´ ve sometimes waited half an hour or more for my husband to return from seeing a guest off, since he´ s gone to the bus stop and waited for the next bus to arrive.
That´s very well, but when I´m the guest being seen off, my protests are always useless. My hostess or host, or both, insists on seeing me down the stairs and well on my way, with my repeating the "Don´t bother( give the trouble)to see me off" at every landing. If I try to go fast to discourage them from following, they are simply out to the discomfort of having to run after me. Better to accept the inevitable ( 不可避免的 ).
Besides, that´ s going against Chinese custom, because haste ( doing things quickly) is to be avoided. What do you say when you part from someone? "Go slowly. " Not farewell or Godspeed (祝福), but "Go slowly". To the Chinese it means "Take care" or "Watch your step", or some such cau- tion ,but translated literally(照字面地) it means "Go slowly".

It may be pointed out that warfare(战争) as practiced by man has no parallel in nature. This is to say that within the more highly developed animal populations of this earth, there is not now, nor has there been similar destruction within a species(物种) itself. In fact, one has to go to the lowliest forms of animal life, such as certain kinds of ants, to find anything comparable to human warfare. It is a curious fact that mankind appears to give the killing of his own kind a good reason by imaging that it is a "law of nature". There are now a lot of wrong ideas about the laws of nature, of which this is one of the most incorrect and fateful(致命的). Political beliefs have been based upon it with results that have come near to destroying human civilization. The theory that war is a biological necessity, that it is nature´s method of controlling population and believing in the survival(生存) of the strong and the elimination(灭亡) of the weak,is totally wrong and insupportable. Within the last century, when wars have been common all over the world ,the human population of the earth has almost doubled.

Popular British author, Charles Dickens´ (1812—1870)family could hardly make ends meet.
They could only afford to send one of their six children to school. Dickens was not that child. His parents chose to send a daughter, who had a talent for music, to an academy. Then at the age of 12, Dickens´ life took another turn for the worse.
His father, a clerk, was placed in prison for unpaid debts. And, being the oldest male left at home, Dickens took up work at a factory. His horrible experience there became the fuel for his future writing. His father was freed three months later and inherited a small amount of money.
Dickens was then sent to school.
From 1836 to 1537, he wrote a monthly series of stories. Thus The Pickwick Papers, came into being, which brought fame to him.
Throughout his career, Dickens covers various situations in his novels. He wrote about the miserable lives of the poor in Oliver Twist, the French Revolution in Tale of Two Cities, and social reform in Hard Times. He also wrote David Copperfield, a book thought to be modeled on his own life.
"! do not write bitterly or angrily, for I know all these things have worked together to make me what I am," he once said. His difficult childhood did indeed shape the person he became, as well as his writing career. There are shades of young Dickens in many of his most beloved characters, including David Copperfield and Oliver Twist. Like the author, all these characters come from poor beginnings and are able to rise above their setbacks and achieve success. "Minds, like bodies, will often fall into an ill-conditioned state from too much comfort," he once wrote. On June. 9th, 1870, aged 58, Dickens died, leaving one unfinished work. The words on his tombstone read : "He was a sympathizer to the poor, the suffering and the oppressed, and by his death, one of England´ s greatest writers is lost to the world. "
The book that first called public attention to Dickens was

They could only afford to send one of their six children to school. Dickens was not that child. His parents chose to send a daughter, who had a talent for music, to an academy. Then at the age of 12, Dickens´ life took another turn for the worse.
His father, a clerk, was placed in prison for unpaid debts. And, being the oldest male left at home, Dickens took up work at a factory. His horrible experience there became the fuel for his future writing. His father was freed three months later and inherited a small amount of money.
Dickens was then sent to school.
From 1836 to 1537, he wrote a monthly series of stories. Thus The Pickwick Papers, came into being, which brought fame to him.
Throughout his career, Dickens covers various situations in his novels. He wrote about the miserable lives of the poor in Oliver Twist, the French Revolution in Tale of Two Cities, and social reform in Hard Times. He also wrote David Copperfield, a book thought to be modeled on his own life.
"! do not write bitterly or angrily, for I know all these things have worked together to make me what I am," he once said. His difficult childhood did indeed shape the person he became, as well as his writing career. There are shades of young Dickens in many of his most beloved characters, including David Copperfield and Oliver Twist. Like the author, all these characters come from poor beginnings and are able to rise above their setbacks and achieve success. "Minds, like bodies, will often fall into an ill-conditioned state from too much comfort," he once wrote. On June. 9th, 1870, aged 58, Dickens died, leaving one unfinished work. The words on his tombstone read : "He was a sympathizer to the poor, the suffering and the oppressed, and by his death, one of England´ s greatest writers is lost to the world. "

How did Dickens see his childhood?

Moods, say the experts, are feelings that are likely to become fixed, having effects on one´ s out-look ( way of looking at things ) for hours, days or even weeks. That´ s great if your mood is a pleasant one, but a problem if you are sad, anxious, angry or simply lonely.
Perhaps the best way to deal with such moods is to talk them out; sometimes, though, there is no one to listen. Modern pharmacology (药物学) offers a lot tranquilizers ( 镇定剂 ) and anti-anxiety drugs. What many people don´ t realize, however, is that scientists have discovered the effectiveness of several non-drug methods to make you free from an unwanted mood. These can be just as useful as drugs, and have the added benefit of being nonpoisonous. So next time you feel out of sorts, don´ t head for the drug store--try the following method.
Of all the mood-changing self-help techniques, aerobic exercise seems to be the best cure for a bad mood. "If you could keep the exercise, you´ d be in high spirits, "says Kathryn Lance, author of Running for Health and Beauty.
Researchers have explained biochemical and various other changes that make exercise compare favorably to drugs as mood-raiser. Physical work such as housework, however, does little. The key is aerobic exercise--running, cycling, walking, swimming, or other repetitive and sustained activities that increase the heart rate and circulation (循环), and improve the body´ s use of oxygen. Do them for at least 20 minutes a time, three to five times a week.

Which of the following best describes the organization of this passage?

Some people do not like anything to be out of place. They are never late for work; they return their books to the library on time; they remember people´ s birthdays and they pay their bills as soon as they arrive. Mr. Brown is such a person. Mr. Brown works in a bank, and lives on his own. His sister lives in the next town with her husband, and her son, Mark. Mr. Brown doesn´ t see his sister or her family from one year to the next, but he sends them Christmas cards, and he hasn´ t forgotten one of Mark´ s seventeen birthdays. Last week Mr. Brown had quite a surprise. He drove home from the bank at the usual time; driving neither too slowly nor too fast, he parked his car where he always parked it, out of the way of other cars, and he went inside to make his evening meal. Just then there was a knock at the door. Mr. Brown opened the door to find a policeman standing on the doorstep.
"What have I done wrong?" Mr. Brown asked himself. "Have I driven on the wrong side of the road? Has there been some trouble at the bank? Have I forgotten to pay an important bill?"
"Hello, uncle," said the policeman, "My name´ s Mark. "

Not many years ago, a wealthy and rather strange old man named Johnson lived alone in a village in the south of England. He had made a lot of money in trading with foreign countries. When he was seventy-five, he gave ~ 1200 to the village school to buy land and equipment for a children´ s playground.
As a result of his kindness, many people came to visit him. Among them was a newspaperman.
During their talk, Johnson remarked that he was seventy-five and expected to live to be a hundred. The newspaperman asked him how he managed to be healthy at seventy-five. Johnson had a sense of humour (幽默). He liked whisky (威士忌酒) and drank some each day. "I have an injection(注射) in my neck each evening," he told the newspaperman, thinking of his evening glass of whisky.
The newspaperman did not understand what Johnson meant. In his newspaper he reported that Johnson was seventy-five and had a daily injection in his neck. Within a week Johnson received thou- sands of letters from all over Britain, asking him for the secret of his daily injection.
The gift of money to the school suggests that Johnson .

Karen MacInnes had spent nine months in the hospital. As she grew weaker, the 16-year-old girl asked her parents, Am I going to me.

Robert Kohout, 39, was working outside his home last October when he heard a frightening noise. He turned round and saw Walter Graham´ s car sinking into $ feet of water of the swimming pool a little distance away from his yard.
Kohout immediately called to Graham´ s wife ,Evelyn ,to telephone 911. Then he ran back to his house to get Terence Reif and Glenn Fajardo to help, who were at work inside the house. "There was no time for second thoughts," said Reif, a farmer´ s son. "The only thing to do was to get in thepool. "
The car doors were locked. Graham, 73, was unconscious (失去知觉), and his Mercury was rapidly filling with water. Reif struggled to break the driver´ s side window with a hammer but had trouble getting it done underwater.
Finally--some four minutes after the car had fallen into the pool--the glass was broken. By then, Graham was floating at the top of the flooded passenger compartment(车厢).
The three men pulled Graham out through the broken glass. He wasn´ t breathing and his heart stopped beating, so they performed mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. The rescue (急救)team arrived in no time. Doctors supplied him with advanced life support on the way to the hospital.
"These people were getting to Graham through the glass," said Dr. Jeff Messinger. "All three acted without regard for their own safety. "Added Evelyn Graham," They were truly angels (天使)watching over us. "

The sea is very bi9．Look at a map of the world．There is less land than sea．The sea covers three quarters of the world．
The sea is very deep in some places．There is one spot，near Japan，where the sea is nearly11 kilonetres deep．The highest mountain in the world is about 9 kilometres high．If that mountain were Dut into the sea at that place，there would be 2 kilometres of water above it．
If you have swum in the sea, you know that it is salty. You can taste the salt. Rivers, which flow into the sea, carry salt from the land into the sea. Some parts of the sea are less salty than other parts. There is one sea, called the Dead Sea, which is very salty. Because it is very salty, swimmers cannot sink! Fish cannot live in the Dead Sea.
In most parts of the sea, there are plenty of fishes and plants. Some live near the top of the sea.
Others live deep down. There are also millions of tiny living things that float in the sea. These floating things are very small. It is hard to see them. Many fish live by eating them.
The sea can be very cold. Divers, who dive deep down in the sea, know this. On the top the water may be warm. When the diver goes downwards, the sea becomes colder and colder.
Another thing happens. When the diver goes deeper, the water above presses down on him. It squeezes him. Then the diver has to wear clothes made of metal.

If you have swum in the sea, you know that it is salty. You can taste the salt. Rivers, which flow into the sea, carry salt from the land into the sea. Some parts of the sea are less salty than other parts. There is one sea, called the Dead Sea, which is very salty. Because it is very salty, swimmers cannot sink! Fish cannot live in the Dead Sea.
In most parts of the sea, there are plenty of fishes and plants. Some live near the top of the sea.
Others live deep down. There are also millions of tiny living things that float in the sea. These floating things are very small. It is hard to see them. Many fish live by eating them.
The sea can be very cold. Divers, who dive deep down in the sea, know this. On the top the water may be warm. When the diver goes downwards, the sea becomes colder and colder.
Another thing happens. When the diver goes deeper, the water above presses down on him. It squeezes him. Then the diver has to wear clothes made of metal.
The deeper divers goes down in the sea, .

The ordinary family in colonial North America was primarily concerned with sheer physical survival and beyond that, is own economic prosperity. Thus, children were valued in terms of their productivity, and they assumed the role of producer quite early. Until they fulfilled this role, their position in the structure of the family was one of subordination ( 从属), and their psychological needs and capacities received little consideration.
As the society became more complex, the status of children in the family and in the society became more important. In the complex, technological society that the United States has become,each member must fulfill a number of personal and occupational roles and be in constant contact with a great many other members. Consequently, viewing children as potentially acceptable members of society means that they are regarded more as people in their own right than as utilitarian organisms.
This acceptance of children as equal participants in the contemporary family is reflected in the variety of statutes protecting the rights of children and in the social public welfare programs devoted exclusively to their well-being.
This new way of children and the increasing contact between the members of society has also resulted in a great interest in child-rearing techniques. People today spend a considerable portion of their time on the proper way to bring up children. It is now possible to influence the details of the socialization of another person´ s child by spreading the principle of current and fashionable theories and methods of child-rearing.

"Seasame Street" has been called "．the longest street in the world"．
This is because the television program by that name can now be seen in so many parts of the world．
The program ,which went on the air in New York in 1969, uses songs ,jokes, and pictures to give children a basic understanding of numbers,letters and human relationships．More than 6 million children in the United States watch it regularly．The viewers (观众) include more than half the nation' s children before school age．
Many teachers consider the program a great help, though some teachers find that problems happen when the first-year pupils who have learned from "Seasame Street" are in the same class with those who have not watched the program．Tests have shown that children who watch it five times a week learn more than those who seldom watch it．In the United States the program is shown at different hours during the
week in order to increase the number of children who can watch it regularly．
Why has "Seasame Street" been so much more successful than other children's shows? Many reasons have been suggested．Perhaps one reason is that mothers watch "Seasame Street" along with their children．But the best reason for the success of the program may be that it makes every child watching it feel able to learn．The child finds himself learning, and he wants to learn more．

In 1530 the day came when Abe would leave home to work in New Salem．For the last time she had taken Abe's part against his father．For the last time she had kept the cabin quiet so that Abe could read．
More than twenty years later,when Abe,whohad then become famous,was going to make a speech in a nearby town, Sarah went there just to watch him．In the crowd she tried to make herself small, but he saw her, and in front of everybody, got out of his carriage and went over and put his arms around her and kissed her．Yes, that was her Abe．

A nice, quiet old couple used to live there, too．The old lady would sometimes bring some small cakes she made to Bill' s mother, who in return would give her some meat or help her with shopping．Unfortunately, the old lady died last month．As her husband couldn' t live alone, his grandson moved in．
The grandson,a youth of about twenty, has become a problem to Bill' s family because he is so noisy．Bill' s family members were used to peace and quiet, but the youth likes to listen to his radio late at night．Sometimes his friends came for a visit, and they also made a lot of noise．Everyone in Bill' s family has been bothered by the new comer and getting angry．
Bill' s mother once politely asked the old man if he was able to sleep well at night, but it seemed that he didn' t understand what she meant and so never spoke to his grandson about it．If he did, the grandson apparently didn' t listen, since things have not changed any．Everyone in Bill' s family agrees that something has to be done, but no one wants to hurt the old man' s feelings or cause him any
problems．

When you are little, the whole world feels like a big playground．I was living in Conyers, Georgia the summer it all happened．I was a second grader, but my best friend Stephanie was only in the first grade．Both of our parents were at work and most of the time they let us go our own way．
It was a hot afternoon and we decided to have an adventure in Stephanie' s basement．As I opened the basement door, before us lay the biggest room, full of amazing things like guns, dolls, and old clothes．I ran downstairs,and spotted a red steel can．It was paint．I looked beyond it and there lay even more paint in bright colors like purple, orange, blue and green．
"Stephanie, I just found us a project for the day．Get some paintbrushes．We are fixing to paint．"She screamed with excitement as I told her of my secret plans and immediately we got to work．We gathered all the brushes we could find and moved all of our materials to my yard．There on the road in
front of my house, we painted bit stripes(条纹) of colors across the pavement(人行道)．Stripe by stripe,our colors turned into a beautiful rainbow．It was fantastic!
The sun was starting to sink．I saw a car in the distance and jumped up as I recognized the car．It was my mother．I couldn' t wait to show her my masterpiece．The car pulled slowly into the driveway and from the look on my mother' s face, I could tell that I was in deep trouble．
My mother shut the car door and walked towards me．Her eyes glaring, she shouted, " What in the world were you thinking? I understood when you made castles out of leaves, and climbed the neighbors' trees, but this ! Come inside right now !" I stood there glaring back at her for a minute, angry because she had insulted(侮辱) my art．
"Now go to clean it up!" Mother and I began cleaning the road．Tears ran down my cheeks as I saw my beautiful rainbow turn into black cement．
Though years have now passed, ! still wonder where my rainbow has gone．I wonder if, maybe when I get older, I can find my rainbow and never have to brush it away．I guess we all need sort of rainbow to brighten our lives from time to time and to keep our hopes and dreams colorful．

Student participation(参与) in the classroom is not only accepted but also expected of the student in many courses．Some professors base part of the final grade on the student' s oral participation．Although there are formal lectures during which the student has a passive role (i．e．, listening and taking notes),
many courses are organized around classroom discussions, student questions, and informal lectures．In graduate discussions the professor has a "manager" role and the students make presentations and lead discussions．The students do the actual teaching in these discussions．
A professor' s teaching method is another factor (因素) that determines the degree and type of student participation．Some professors prefer to control discussion while others prefer to guide the class without controlling it．Many professors encourage students to question their ideas．Students who object to the professor' s point of view should be prepared to prove their positions．
In the teaching of science and mathematics, the controlling mode of instruction is generally traditional ,with teachers presenting formal lectures and students taking notes．However, new educational trends have turned up in the humanities and social sciences in the past twenty years．Students in education, society, and history classes, for example, are often required to solve problems in groups, design
projects, make presentations, and examine case studies．Since some college or university courses are"practical" rather than theoretical ,they pay more attention to "doing" for themselves．

Which of the following sentences is true according to the passage?

Lisa was running late．Lisa,25, had a lot to do at work, plus visitors on the way : her parents were coming in for Thanksgiving from her hometown．But as she hurried down the subway stairs, she started to feel uncomfortably warm．By the time she got to the platform,Lisa felt weak and tired--maybe it hadn't been a good idea to give blood the night before,she thought．She rested herself against a post close to the tracks．
Several yards away,Frank,43, and his girlfriend,Jennifer, found a spot close to where the front of the train would stop．They were deep in discussion about a house they were thinking of buying．
But when he heard the scream, followed by someone yelling, " Oh, my God, she fell in!" Frank didn't hesitate．He jumped down to the tracks and ran some 40 feet toward the body lying on the rails．"No!
Not you!" his girlfriend screamed after him．
She was right to be alarmed．By the time Frank reached Lisa, he could feel the tracks shaking and see the light coming．The train was about 20 seconds from the station．
It was hard to lift her．She was just out．But he managed to raise her the four feet to the platform so that bystanders could hold her by the arms and drag her away from the edge．That was where Lisa briefly regained consciousness ,felt herself being pulled along the ground,and saw someone else holding her purse．
Lisa thought she'd been robbed．A woman held her hand and a man gave his shirt to help stop the blood pouring from her head．And she tried to talk but she couldn't, and that was when she realized how much pain she was in．
Police and fire officials soon arrived, and Frank told the story to an officer．Jennifer said her boyfriend was calm on their 40-minute train ride downtown--just as he had been seconds after the rescue,which made her think about her reaction at the time． "I saw the train coming and I was thinking he was going to die," she explained．

The next time you try for a high-ranking post,you could let your possible boss listen to a recommending(推荐)phone call "made" by US President George W．Bush or British Prime Minister Tony Blair．
Of course ,neither of them could really do that for you--you would just "borrow" their voices．
AT & T labs will start selling speech software that it says is so good at reproducing the sounds of a hmnan voice that it can recreate voices and even bring the voices of long-dead famous people back to life．
The software, which turns printed text into speech, makes it possible for a company to use recordings of a person' s voice to say things that the person never actually said．
Possible customers for the software, which is priced in the thousands of dollars, includes telephone call centers, companies that make software that reads digital (数字的)flies aloud, and makers of automated voice devices(装量)．The advances raise several problems．Who ,for example, owns the rights to a famous person's voice? Some experts even believe that new contracts(合同) will be drawn that include voice-licensing clauses．
And although scientists say the technology is not yet good enough to commit fraud (假冒), would the synthesized (合成的)voices at last be able to trick people into thinking that they were getting phone calls or digital audio recordings from people they know?
Even Mr．Fruchterman,one of AT & T labs' possible first customers,said he wondered what the new technology might bring．"Just like you can't trust a photograph any more．" he said,"you won't be able to trust a voice either．"
With the help of the speech software it is most possible_______．
