27、ed refrigerator from him once, and Carlos sold a box of magazines for a dollar. The store is small with just a dirty window for light. He doesnt turn the lights on unless you got money to buy things with, so in the dark we look and see all kinds of things, me and Nenny. Tables with their feet upside

28、 down and rows and rows of refrigerators round corners and couches that spin dust in the air when you hit them and a hundred TVs that dont work probably. Everything is on top of everything so the whole store has skinny aisles to walk through. You can get lost easily.The owner is a black man who does

29、nt talk much and sometimes if you didnt know better you could be in there a long time before your eyes notice a pair of gold glasses floating in the dark. Nenny who thinks she is smart and talks to any old man, asks lots of questions. I never said anything to him except once when I bought the Statur

30、e of Liberty for a dime.But Nenny, I hear her asking one time what this is here. And the man says this is a music box, and I turn around quickly thinking he means a pretty box with flowers painted on it, with a ballet actress inside. Only theres nothing like that where this old man is pointing, just

31、 a wood box thats old and got a big brass record(铜质唱片) in it with holes. Then he starts it up and all sorts of things start happening. Its like all of a sudden he lets go a million moths(衣蛾) all over the dusty furniture and swan-neck shadows and in our bones. Its like drops of water. Or like marimba

32、s(木琴) only with a funny little plucked(弹奏) sound to it as if you were running your fingers across the teeth of a metal comb.And then I dont know why, but I have to turn around and pretend I dont care about the box so Nenny wont see how stupid I am.

35、as attractive to young girls D. was sold to Nenny at lastBBelgium is divided into three communities. Each one has its own language and traditions. But the people of Belgium are united in their love for Belgian potato fries. The fries are prepared and sold the same way in all areas of the country.The

36、 Reuters news service reports that potatoes reached Belgium in the 16th century. But it was not until the 19th century that restaurants and others began selling fried potatoes throughout the country as a separate meal.Recently, a Belgian group launched a campaign aimed at getting the United Nations

37、to recognize the popular treat. The group wants the U. N.s Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization to place the food on its cultural heritage list.The UNESCO list recognizes more than 300 objects, beliefs and practices. They include Turkish coffee and the traditional Chinese theater known

38、as Peking opera. The list also includes a dance, the Argentinean tango. UNESCO says the list is “made up of intangible heritage(非物质遗产) elements that help demonstrate the diversity of heritage and raise awareness about its importance.”To appear on the list, each item needs an expression of support fr

39、om a minister of culture. Belgium has three such ministers one for each part of the country. Last year, the government of the Dutch-speaking area of Flanders recognized Belgian fried potatoes as an important part of national culture. The French and German-speaking communities are expected to debate

40、the issue this year.Belgian potato fries are traditionally sold in a paper wrapper in a “fritkot,” a small building or shack(棚屋). There are about 5,000 fritkots in Belgium. That means they are 10 times more common as a percentage of the population as McDonalds restaurants in the United States.The na

41、tional organization of fritkot owners says the small, often unfinished buildings are much like Belgium itself.

Whats to be on the Cultural Heritage List?COne of the biggest problems with traveling in space is the distance: The universe is so enormous that our nea

46、rest star is 4.24 light years away. Science fiction authors have had to come up with ways around this problem for a long time. In Star Wars, the spaceships could travel faster than light. Star Treks special engine “warp drive” was supposed to bend space itself. But theres another possibility, accord

47、ing to the new film Interstellar: traveling through wormholes.The idea of wormholes was first brought up by physicists Albert Einstein and Nathan in 1935. They said that there could be “bridges” that connect two different points in space-time. These bridges, or wormholes, would create shortcuts for

48、long journeys across the universe. And a black hole is the mouth of a wormhole. For example, imagine drawing two dots on a piece of paper at each end. If you folded the paper, the two dots would be closer than they were before. This is just a theory, and no wormhole has been discovered to date.Briti

49、sh-American director Christopher Nolan, however, has decided to present one on the big screen. In the movie Interstellar, Earth is a dying planet and a space crew takes a journey through wormholes to seek new livable planets. And to make the movie as scientifically accurate as scientifically accurat

50、e as possible, the team invited famous American physicist Kip Thorne to work on it as an advisor.Thorne laid out a series of equations (方程式), and the team programmed software that would visualize the wormhole exactly the way that it would look, based on his science. The result was surprising.“I neve

51、r expected that,” said Thorne to Wired magazine. “It was just amazing.”However, not everything in the film is scientific. As the director himself said in an interview with the Guardian: “Much of it is, of course, speculation.”In the movie, for example, the crew lands on a planet very close to a blac

52、k hole. This is impossible, according to Tom Whyntie, a physicist at the European Organization for Nuclear Research.“Being near a black hole tears you apart,” Whyntie said to the Telegraph. The gravity at your feet is so much stronger than the gravity at your head that you are pulled into a long, th

56、or years, robots have helped doctors perform operations with greater safety, speed and exactness than by using hand-controlled instruments. Now, one such machine reduces the time it takes to make dental crowns (牙冠). This procedure can repair can repair a damaged tooth in just about two hours.Years a

57、go, several long visits to the dentist were required to manufacture a dental crown. And between visits, the patient had to wear a temporary crowna small, hat-like cover that encircles the tooth. During that period a technician prepares a permanent replacement. Since the 1980s, robotic machines have

58、greatly speeded up that procedure. Sitting in the dentists chair takes far less time that is once did.Michael Silveus has a dental office in northern Virginia, near Washington, D. C. Hedescribes the time saved. “Its about 12 minutes worth of chair time for the patient and the rest of the time, its w

59、ork thats taking place outside the patients mouth.”Dr. Silveus and his assistant are preparing a patients tooth for a new crown. The drilling inside the patients mouth lasts about five minutes. In the past, a plastic material was used to make an impression of the damaged tooth. But now, Dr. Silveus

60、uses a video camera on a pole to inspect the tooth and the surrounding area.Next, a computer takes over the process. It designs the new crown and creates directions for a robotic machine. A small cube (立方体) of porcelain (瓷) is placed between two drills, simlar to the one the dentist uses. The porcel

61、ain is no larger than the tooth The high-speed tools break off extra material from the cube, creating a perfectly shaped tooth crown.To harden, the crown must be heated for about 10 minutes. During that process, its color is changed to the color of the patients other teeth. Then, the dental crown is

62、 ready to be placed permanently in the patients mouth.“It feels amazing. The tooth feels like my tooth.” Many people wearing will say the newer procedure is a huge improvement over older methods. But Dr. Silveus says even ths technology may someday become obsolete.” The other thing we look forward t

63、o is genetic engineering , and eventually cloning, so you can make the crown out of actually enamel (珐琅), just like the patients natural teeth are. ”For now, Dr. Silveus says his patients are happy to be able to get a new crown in just one visit.63. what is the correct procedure of making dental cro

66、atly reduces the timeC. it requires no temporary crownD. it hardens the original teeth66. What does the underlined word “obsolete” (Para. 7) mean/A. Efficient.B. Complex.C. Out-of-date.D. Whith-hot.EMoney cant buy happiness, right? Well, not true. According to a recent article in The Wall Street Jou

67、rnal, over the past few years, new research has given us a much deeper understanding of the relationship between what we earn and how we feel. The results may seem a bit obvious: Yes, people with higher incomes are, broadly speaking, happier than those who struggle to get by. But the research also s

68、hows you have to spend strategically if you expect those bank notes to put a smile on your face. Here are some ways to better spend your money:Buy experiences, not stuff.In a recently published study, Ryan Howell, associate professor of psychology at San Francisco State University in the US, found t

69、hat when people dont have much money to spare, they tend to stick to material goods.“People think that experiences are only going to provide temporary happiness,” he told The Wall Street Journal in an interview. “ but they actually provide both more happiness and more lasting value.”Buy lots of litt

70、le things, rather than one big thing.No matter how much money you spend on something and how special that product is, you will get used to having it over time and it will become just another object. People adapt to having new stuff, and the adaptation is likely to prolong happiness, says an Atlantic

71、 article. Buying small things can give us frequent small pleasures that are different each time they occur.Buy what you like.No keeping up with the Joneses. “There are a lot of reasons someone might buy something but if the reason is to maximize happiness, the best thing for that person to do is pur

72、chase a life experience that is in line with their personality,” Howell tells Forbes. Howell recently co-authored a study finding that when people spend money just to project a certain image, it doesnt bring happiness.Be sure to buy time, too.Its also important to consider how what youre buying will

73、 affect how you spend your time. For example, that big house in the suburbs may seem like a good idea, but according to The Wall Street Journal, a study by researchers from University of Zurich in Switzerland found that people with longer commutes reported lower overall life satisfaction, all other

74、things being equal.Try giving it away.Elizabeth Dunn, associate professor of psychology at the University of British Columbia in Canada, found that in countries as diverse as Canada, South Africa and Uganda, giving away money consistently made people happier. This was even true when people were givi

75、ng away even when they themselves were relatively poor.67. According to the passage, one result of the new research shows that . A. money cant buy happiness B. the more we earn, the happier we may feel C. the more we spend, the more we may earn D. the more we earn, the harder we are likely to strugg

76、le68. If you expect those bank notes to bring happiness and lasting value, you can buy . A. a gold ear ring B. a pair of shoes C. a big house in the suburbs D. a seven-day travel product69. The underlined sentence in Para. 5 is closest in meaning to “ ”. A. Dont follow suit. B. Leave the others behi

A. inform us of the importance of money B. urge us to earn more money to live a happier life C. give suggestions on how to better spend money D. tell us the relationship between money and happiness第四部分：书面表
