Keep a normal and healthy state of mind. It is very natural for the boys and girls to make friends with each other. We can get in touch with the other sex in public, but not in secret. When you stay with the other sex, don’t be too nervous or too shy. If you are a shy person, you can make friends with the students who have the same interest and hobby as you. You may have much to talk about. If you keep doing like that, you will gladly find you are also as free to express yourself as others. 36. The main idea of the passage is to __________. A. tell students to keep away from early love B. give some advice on how to associate between boys and girls C. tell students how to make friends          D. teach boys how to talk with girls 37.

It was the first step in his plans for Stephen to take over the estate（地产）when the time came, and although Stephen was well aware of this, he could think of no reason not to accompany him. “Thought you’d forgotten that nonsense. Still, I dare say I could pull a few strings to get you to the Army...” “No, Father! I have told you I want to learn to fly. What chance would I have to do that in the Army? I'd be better off in the Navy ---- at least they’ve got the Fleet Air Arm. But I have been put in the RAF and that’s where I want to be, so let’s leave it at that. His face went red. Sent to his father’s school and then to Cambridge, much to his satisfaction, he had never had to defend his own desires and his father was a hard man to oppose. The father glared at Stephen, "No, I won't leave it at that. I want to know what other ridiculous ideas are in your head. For a start, what's all this about America?” “America?” “Yes. All those books I saw in your room the other day. Brochures about emigration（移民）．” The big, silvered head lowered, like that of a bull about to charge． “Don't trouble to deny it.” “I won’t, Father. Some men at Cambridge have been talking about it. They want people like us here, mathematicians and scientists, for all kinds of research----the sort of research I could do．It would be a worthwhile life for me.” The father responded exactly as his son had known he would． “You’ve got a worthwhile life here！You’ve got an estate to run！” “No, Father. You’ve got an estate to run. I never asked for it. Why not ask Baden to do this stuff? He perhaps can make a good job of it, but I...” “If he were here, I might think about this silly idea of yours----only think about it, mind you but...” 41.If Father wanted Stephen to take over the estate, the first thing he did he would __________． A .take a walk with Stephen as usual  B. wait till his son graduated from Cambridge C. persuade Stephen not to go into RAF  D. send Stephen to the Army instead of RAF 42.

The dreams of a Cambridge student  D. Conflict between Father and Son C The problem is twofold（双重的）. First, there is a limit on the number of people we can hold in mind and have a meaningful relationship with. That number is about 150 and is set by the size of our brain. Second, the quality of your relationships depends on the amount of time you invest in then. We invest a lot in a small number of people and then distribute what’s left among as many others as we can. The problem is that if we invest little time in a person, our engagement with that person will decline until eventually it dies into “someone I once knew”. This is not, of course, to say that the Internet doesn’t serve a socially valuable function. Of course it does. But the question is not that it allows you to increase the size of your social circle to include the rest of the world, but that you can keep your relationships with your existing friends going even though you have to move to the other side of the world. In one sense, that’s a good thing. But it also has a disadvantage. If you continue to invest in your old friends even though you can no longer see them, then certainly you aren’t using your time to make new friends where you now live. And I suspect that probably isn’t the best use of your time. Meaningful relationships are about being able to communicate with each other, face to face. The Internet will slow down the rate with which relationships end, but it won’t stop that happening eventually. 46. The number of friends we can keep relationships with is decided by __________. A. the Internet  B. the time we have  C. the place we live  D. the mind 47. The underlined word “engagement” in the second paragraph probably means “__________”. A. appointment  B. connection      C. interview        D. agreement 48. The author holds the view that __________. A. the Internet helps to keep in touch with friends far away B. the Internet determines the quality of social relationships C. the Internet greatly increases the size of social circles D. the Internet is of no value in social communication 49. What will the author encourage us to do? A. To keep in touch with old friends when we have moved away. B. To chat with friends often on the Internet. C. To make more new friends face to face. D. To stop using the Internet to make new friends. 50. What is the author’s attitude towards the use of the Internet to strengthen relationships? A. He thinks it useless          B. He is hopeful of it. C. He approves of it.            D. He doubts it. D Just seven years ago, the Jarvik-7 artificial heart was being cheered as the model of human creativeness. The sight of Barney Clark----alive and conscious after trading his diseased heart for a metal-and-plastic pump----convinced the press, the public and many doctors that the future had arrived. It hadn't. After monitoring production of the Jarvik-7, and reviewing its effects on the 150 or so patients (most of whom got the device as a temporary measure) the U.S. Food and Drug Administration concluded that the machine was doing more to endanger lives than to save them. Last week the agency cancelled its earlier approval, effectively banning (禁止) the device. The recall may hurt Symbion Inc., maker of the Jarvik-7, but it won't end the request for an artificial heart. One problem with the banned mode is that the tubes connecting it to an external power source created a passage for infection. Inventors are now working on new devices that would be fully placed, along with a tiny power pack, in the patient's chest. The first sample products aren't expected for another 10 or 20 years. But some people are already worrying that they'll work---and that America's overextended health-care programs will lose a precious $2.5 billion to $5 billion a year providing them for a relatively few dying patients. If such expenditures (开支) cut into funding for more basic care, the net effect could actually be a decline in the nation's health. 51. According to the passage, the Jarvik-7 artificial heart proved to be __________. A. a technical failure            B. a technical wonder  C. a good life-saver              D. an effective means to treat heart disease 52. From the passage we know that Symbion Inc. __________. A. has been banned by the government from producing artificial hearts B. will review the effects of artificial hearts before designing new models C. may continue to work on new models of reliable artificial hearts D. can make new models of artificial hearts available on the market in 10 to 20 years 53. The new models of artificial hearts are expected __________. A. to have a working life of 10 or 20 years B. to be set fully in the patient's chest C. to be equipped with an external power source  D. to create a new passage for infection 54. The word “them” in Line 7, Para. 2 refers to __________. A. doctors who treat heart diseases      B. makers of artificial hearts
