LOS ANGELES-Jesus Ibarra was confused by the elderly an in the skullcap(无沿便帽).He was obviously uch older than other students at Central Adult High School. And he was an Anglo on a capus where ost students are Latinos, blacks, and Asian-Aericans.
“I asked yself what he was doing here,” says Ibarra, 21, of Los Angeles. “I thought he was a volunteer. The first tie I talked to hi, I asked a question in English, and he answered in Spanish. I thought he was white and Jewish. I never iagined that he would speak Spanish.”
Jacob Blitzstein surprised his fellow students all the tie. He isn’t soe stuffy guy, though he wears his neat gray beard and conservative(traditional) clothes.

Earning his diploa took 10 years, during which the retired store owner suffered a stroke（中风）and two bouts of pneuonia, had two paceakers（心脏起搏器）installed, and lost his wife and two brothers.
He kept to his task for a reason. School “is the best edicine you can have,” he says. “You have soething on your ind-a goal.”…
With his diploa in hand, Blizstein states that he’s not through yet.
“You know soething? I’ going to college,” he told a visitor recently. He has checked out West Los Angeles and Santa onica counity colleges and says he hopes to transfer fro there to a four-year school.

Where is that noise coing fro? Not sure? Try living with your eyes closed for a few years.
Blind people are better at locating sounds than people who can see, a new study says, Without the benefits of vision the ears see to work uch better.
Previous studies have shown that blind people are better than others at reaching out and touching the sources of sounds that are close by. Researchers fro the University of ontreal wanted to see if blind people were also better at locating sounds that are far away. ww
Twenty-three blind people participated in the study. All had been sightless for at least 20 years. Fourteen of the had lost their vision before age 11. The rest went blind after age 16. The experient also included 10 people who could see but were wearing blindfolds.
In one task, volunteers had to pick the direction of a sound coing fro about 3 eters away. When the sound was in front of the or slightly off center in front, both groups perfored equally well.
When sounds cae fro the side or the back, however, the blind group perfored uch better than the blindfolded group. The participants who had been blind since childhood did slightly better than those who lost their sight later.
Recognizing the locations of distant sounds can be a atter of life-or-death for blind people, say the researchers. Crossing the street, for instance, is uch harder when you can’t see the cars coing.
Still, the researchers were surprised by hoell the blind participants did, especially those who went blind after age 16. In another experient, the scientists also found that parts of the brain that norally deal with visual inforation becae active in locating sound in the people who were blind by age 11. These brain parts didn’t show sound-location activity in the other group of blind people or in the sighted people. The scientists noant to learn ore about the workings of brains of “late-onset” blind people.

Accidents are caused; they don’t just happen. The reason ay be easy to see: an overloaded tray, a shelf out of reach, a patch of ice on the road. But ore often than not there is a chain of events leading up to the isfortune-frustration, tiredness or just bad teper-that shohat the accident really is, a sort of attack on oneself.
Road accidents, for exaple, happen frequently after a faily quarrel, and we all know people who are accident-prone, so often at odds with theselves and the world that they see to cause accidents for theselves and others.
By definition, an accident is soething you cannot predict or avoid, and the idea which used to be current, that the ajority of road accidents are caused by a inority of criinally careless drivers, is not supported by insurance statistics. These show that ost accidents involve ordinary otorists in a oent of carelessness or thoughtlessness.
It is not always clear, either, what sort of conditions ake people ore likely to have an accident. For instance, the law requires all factories to take safety actions and ost copanies have safety coittees to ake sure the regulations are observed, but still, every day in Britain, soe fifty thousand en and woen are absent fro work due to an accident. These accidents are largely the result of huan error or isjudgent-noise and fatigue, boredo or worry are possible factors which contribute to this. Doctors who work in factories have found that those who drink too uch, usually people who have a high anxiety level, run three ties the noral risk of accidents at work.
57.This passage ight be taken fro .
A．a text bookB．a science story
C．a popular agazineD．a report of a businessan
58.“Accident-prone” here (in Paragraph 2) eans .
A．likely to have accidentsB．injured in accidents
C．likely to die in accidentsD．responsible for road accidents
59.The passage suggests that .
A．accidents ostly result fro slippery roads
B．accidents are usually caused by psychological factors
C．doctors run three ties the noral risk of accidents in factories
D．about 50,000 people lost their lives at work in Britain every day
60.Which of the following is NOT discussed as a factor of accidents in this passage?
A．oodB．CarelessnessC．TirednessD．Weather
61.What do you think would be the best title for the passage?
A．Accidents and AnxietyB．How accidents Are Caused

Dreas: aking The Work for Us
Several nights a weeoseph woke up screaing fro the sae terrible drea. Joseph could never recall his whole drea, though. He only reebered that soeone was running after hi. Joseph was trying to get away, but in his drea he could not ove. He continued having this nightare for onths. He was so tired in the orning that it was hard for hi to go to work.
ilton Kraer, a psychiatrist and dreaer researcher, found that people wake up feeling very discouraged after they have a bad drea, while after having a good drea, people feel ore optiistic. Clearly, dreas can have harful or beneficial effects. As a result, Kraer believes that we need to learn how to change our bad dreas.
Before we can begin to change a nightare, however, we first have to reeber what happened in our drea. Actually, there are any ways to do this. We can keep a journal or diary of what we do when we are awake. Then, before going to sleep, we can review our day. As we begin to fall asleep, we should reind ourselves that we want to reeber our dreas. When we wake up, we should lie still while we try to reeber our drea. We should also try to reeber an iportant word or picture fro the drea. This iage akes the rest of the drea easier to reeber. Finally, if we have trouble reebering dreas, we can try sleeping later. The longer we sleep, the longer and clearer our dreas will be.
Dr. Rosalind Cartwright is a drea researcher, too. She has developed another drea treatent for changing dreas. According to Dr. Cartwright, drea treatent involves four siple steps. The first step is to recognize when you care having a bad drea that will ake you feel helpless or upset the next orning. The second step is to identify what it is about the drea that will ake you feel bad-for exaple, weak instead of strong, or out of control instead of in control. Next, stop and bad drea. You do not have to continue your bad drea, because you are in charge. The last step is to change the negative part of the drea. Soeties you ay have to wake yourself up and change the drea before you return to sleep. Other ties it is possible to change the drea while you are still asleep.
By using drea treatent, Joseph was able to change his nightares. Generally, his bad dreas stopped altogether. He began having ore positive dreas and woke up feeling refreshed and cheerful. Stopping a nightare and changing it to a positive drea experience can be physically and psychologically beneficial to us all.
62.What is the ain idea of the passage?
A. Dreas are very iportant, and it is possible to change a bad drea into a good drea.
B. Joseph was finally able to change his nightares by using drea treatent.
C. Drea treatent has four siple steps for success.
D. Joseph succeeded in stopping the nightares.
63.Put the following drea treatent steps in the correct order.
a. Change the negative part of the drea.
b. Identify the part of the drea that akes you feel bad.
c. Recognize when you are having a bad drea.
d. Stop your bad drea.
A．cbdaB．acbdC．bacdD．dcba
64.How any ways does the passage present to help us reeber our dreas?
A．4B．3C．6D．5
65.Which stateent is NOT true?
A．The drea treatent is effective.
B．Dreas can ake us hurtful or helpful.
C．Changing a nightare is good for all people.
D．You can change the bad dreas only while sleeping.
