After sitting at his table for a while, he noticed there was just one upset

17、employee available to take orders, cook food, clean tables and manage the cash register.The 24-year-old patron was losing hope of ever getting a meal. The employee who was recognized only by his name tag reading “Ben”-seemed to be on the edge of panic until Crispo saw him speaking to a male customer

18、 in a blue shirt sitting at the counter. After a brief conversation, Ben handed him an apron (围裙) and the man got to work washing dishes.“It was a transition so smooth. I initially assumed it was a staff member returning to his shift,” Crispo told AL.com. “It wasnt. It was a kind stranger.”A couple

19、of minutes later, a woman in high heels and a stylish dress walked behind the counter to make more coffee. She then took a few orders before resigning herself to clearing tables. Suddenly, a third customer in a red shirt marched over to help as well, though Crispo failed to catch his name or take a

20、photo of the man at work.The term “customer service” took on a whole new meaning that night. “It was the most fascinating thing,” Crispo said. “It was just one of the wildest instances of really, really cool people just coming together. It made a difference to many people that night. Certainly, thei

21、r actions made an impact on me,” he added. “Humanity isnt just goodits great.”24.What does the underlined word”patron”probably refer to?A.The employer of the Waffle House.B.Ethan Crispo.C.Ben.D.A beggar wanting food at midnight.25.Why did the male customer in a blue shirt go to wash dishes?A.He was

24、fine what good humanity isD.show appreciation for the waiters hard workC Taking a shower is relaxing. You can hum a song, daydream or think about nothing, leaving the real world behind you. But did you know that showering can also benefit your mind?A research by Scott Barry Kaufman, a psychologist f

25、rom Yale University interviewed over 3,000 people around the world. It turned out that nearly two-thirds of the interviewees said they had experienced new ideas in the shower and were more likely to have them in the shower than at work.So why does a simple shower have such magic power? Science can e

26、xplain it.Showering can help to raise our level of dopamine( 多巴胺), a hormone closely related to our creativity. “People vary in terms of their level of creativity according to the activity of dopamine,” explained Alice Flaherty, a famous American neuroscientist. “Taking a warm shower can make us fee

27、l relaxed and therefore make the dopamine level rise and bring Aha！ moment to us.”Besides the chemical changes, showering may give you a break from what you feel you have been stuck with. Especially when you have thought hard all day about a problem, jumping into the shower can keep you from the out

28、side world so that you can focus on your inner feelings and memories.Compared with sitting in front of a computer, taking a shower is something we do less frequently in our daily life. When showering, we get a fresh experience with the change of location, temperature and humidity. “New and unexpecte

29、d experiences can lead to positive changes in thinking,” explained Kaufman. “Getting off the couch and jumping in the shower may create a distance and force you to think from a new point of view.”Showering allows us to enjoy the creative juices of our minds, but it neednt just be the bathroom where

30、you get your inspiration. For instance, Gertrude Stein, a female American writer and poet, got new ideas by driving around a farm and stopping at different cows until she found the one that most inspired her. So try to create your own way to free your mind.28.According to the article, what changes c

31、an showering cause?A.Bringing the terrible moment to us.B.Setting the creative part of the brain free.C.Leading to boredom or tiredness.D.Increasing the level of dopamine.29.If one has focused on something all day, showering can help .A.turn ones attention inwardB.draw ones attention to the outside

32、worldC.make an important breakthroughD.many chemical changes to take place30.According to Kaufman, why can taking showers make us creative?A.Because taking showers happens more often.B.Because taking showers can make us acquire a fresh experience, inspiring us.C.Because nothing but taking showers ca

33、n get our inspiration.D.Because taking showers can help us try something unexpected.31.The example of Gertrude Stein in the last paragraph is used to .A.encourage readers to find their own ways of getting inspirationB.point out to readers that its hard to get inspirationC.explain how to link inspira

34、tion with readers daily livesD.show that creativity often comes from strange placesDAn ageless question: When is someone “old”?What does “old” really mean these days? This isnt a meaningless question not only does the definition of “old” have an outsized impact on how we feel about ourselves (not to

35、 mention how others view us), it also matters to policymakers determining how to plan for aging populations.The United Nations historically has defined older persons as people 60 years or over (sometimes 65). It didnt matter whether you lived in the United States, China or Senegal, even though life

36、expectancy is quite different in each of those countries. Everyone became old at 60.Researchers Sergei Scherbov and Warren Sanderson, who study aging, are suggesting overturning the one-size-fits-all-across-the-globe definition of old. Instead, they talk about “prospective age”, which looks to the f

37、uture. Everyone with the same prospective age has the same expected remaining years of life.Scherbov explained that young and old are relative concepts, and their common reference point is life expectancy. It makes sense that “old” would vary between nations, especially between more-and less-develop

38、ed countries, with differences in education, death rates, access to health care and life expectancy.But who is “old” also varies-widely-between individuals. The point, says Scherbov, is that personal age is dependent on our “characteristics” understanding abilities, disability, health history and ev

39、en education levels. Those with more education tend not to smoke, exercise more frequently, have better diets and have regular checkups and, therefore, live longer, meaning the beginning of their old age comes later, says Scherbov.32.What is the first paragraph mainly about?A.How do we feel about ou

40、rselves?B.How do others view us?C.The importance of the definition of “old”.D.The plan for aging populations.33.What does the underlined phrase “prospective age” in paragraph 3 refer to according to the text?A.The expected remaining years of ones life.B.The beginning of ones old age.C.The difference

41、s of our “characteristics”.D.The age when one becomes old.34.What similarity does Scherbov think young and old have?A.Understanding abilities.B.Nations.C.Education.D.The reference point.35.Which of the following helps one to live longer?A.As much exercise as possible.B.Losing weight.C.Studying histo

42、ry.D.Improving the education level. 第二节.七选五 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 I never really decided to move to New York, and I never really decided to stay, but Ive lived here, in the same apartment, for sixteen years, which is longer than Ive lived anywhere else. 36.My la

43、st move was from my parents house in Westchester County, ten months after I graduated from college. With a roommate who was a friend of a college friend, I got a two-bedroom apartment on the Upper West Side which rented for four hundred and seventy-five dollars a month; half that amount was about as

44、 much as I could afford on my take-home pay, which was a little less than two hundred dollars a week.I was working in the typing pool of this magazine, at a time when career advice to young women included an admonition (告诫) that if you started out with a job that involved typing all you would ever d

45、o was type. But I didnt believe that. I dared to type. Over the years, things between me and my apartment worsened to the point where we barely acknowledged each other s existence.
