19、with an umbrella. At first I couldnt stand it, now Im used to it.I dont know his name. I know hes average in appearance, wears a gray suit, and has a common face. I met him five years ago one hot morning when I was sitting on a tree-shaded bench in Palermo Park, reading the paper. Suddenly I felt so

20、mething touch my head. It was the very same man who now, as Im writing, keeps hitting me, mechanically (机械地) and impassively, with an umbrella. On that occasion I turned around filled with anger. He just kept on hitting me. I asked him if he was crazy, he didnt even seem to hear me. Then I threatene

21、d to call a policeman. Calmly, cool as a cucumber, he stuck with his task. After a few moments of hesitation, and seeing that he was not about to change his attitude, I stood up and hit him on the nose. The man fell down, but he immediately got back on his feet, obviously with great effort, and with

22、out a word again began hitting me on the head with the umbrella. His nose was bleeding and, at that moment, I felt sorry for him. I felt regret for having hit him so hard. After all, the man wasnt exactly hitting me; he was merely tapping me lightly with his umbrella, not causing any pain at all. Of

23、 course, those taps were extremely bothersome. As we all know, when a fly lands on your forehead, you dont feel any pain; what you feel is annoyance. Well then, that umbrella was one huge fly that kept landing on my head time after time.Convinced that I was dealing with a madman, I tried to escape.

24、But the man followed me, wordlessly continuing to hit me. So I began to run (I should point out that not many people run as fast as I do). He took off after me, trying to land a blow. The man was out of breath so that I thought, if I continued to force him to run at that speed, he would drop dead ri

25、ght then and there.41. When the man began to strike the author with an umbrella, the author _. A. became angry B. called the police C. turned around and escaped D. turned around and fought back42.

26、felt sorry for the man because _. A. the man formed a bad habit of beating others B. he hit the man so hard that his nose bled C. the man couldnt catch up with him D. there was a fly on the mans head44. It can be learned from the passage that the man _. A. shouted loudly while hitting the author B.

27、wanted to tell the author something C. ran after the author breathlessly D. acted as if he were a flyBThe easiest way for the English to deal with their social discomfort is to avoid social interaction altogether, by choosing either leisure (闲暇) activities that can be performed in the privacy of one

28、s own house, or outdoor activities that follow their interest without direct contact with anyone other than ones own family members, such as going for a walk, or to the cinema, or shopping. In recent survey, over half of all the leisure activities were of this private domestic type, and of the top t

29、en pastimes, only twohaving friends round for a meal or drink, and going to the pubcould be described as sociable. The most domestic activities are the most popular: watching TV, listening to the radio, reading, DIY （Do It Yourself） and gardening. Even when the English are being sociable, the survey

30、 findings show that most of them would much rather entertain a few close friends or relatives in the safety of their own homes than venture out among strangers. In the latest national census survey （人口普查）, over half of the entire adult male population had been DIYing in the four weeks before the cen

31、sus date. Nearly a third of the female population had also been busily improving their homes, and their work with their gardens was equally obvious: 52 percent of all English males and 45 percent of females had been out there, cutting branches and weeding grass. Even among people claiming to belong

32、to a particular religion, only two percent attend services every week. The rest of the population can be found every Sunday at their local garden center or DIY superstore. And when they want a break from caring about their own homes and gardens, they go on trips to visit bigger and better houses and

33、 gardens, such as the stately homes and gardens opened to the public by the National Trust and the Royal Horticulture Society.

54、say researchers.Harindra Fernando, a fluid dynamicist (力学家) at Arizona State University in Tempe, made the connection after a visit to his native Sri Lanka earlier this year. While serving as a scientific expert and translator for a BBC-documentary team, he chatted with locals who said they saw the

55、tsunami turn sideways when it hit coralwhich would have made it less powerful than in coral-free areas. Fernando linked this to trucks he had seen last year carrying piles of coral away from the sea.Using the eyewitness reports, estimates (估算) of wave heights, and a series of divers to check the pre

56、sence or absence of corals, Fernando and his colleagues produced a map of coral gaps and wave flooding along Sri Lankas southwest coast.The tsunami reached significantly farther inland through the gaps: in one instance, the water traveled 1.5 kilometres long and knocked a passenger train off its tra

57、cks, killing 1,700. But only a few kilometers away, where the coral was still undamaged, the wave travelled just 50 metres inland and caused no deaths.There is a similar phenomenon. In Nicaragua in 1992, a tsunami poured through a break in the coral reef made to let boats through. “Within this passa

58、ge, water went one kilometre inland,” says Fernando. “But nearby, where the coral was undamaged, there were still beach umbrellas standing.”In Sri Lanka, coral is illegally mined to provide souvenirs for tourists, or to be used in house paint. Coral harvesters sometimes blow it up with dynamite (炸药)

59、 in order to collect fish at the same time. Often, the reefs in the best shape are those in front of hotels, as the hotel owners maintain them for the tourists. Fernando hopes that his findings will encourage the Sri Lankan government to enforce (实施) its laws against coral mining.57. Harindra Fernan
